When telling a "story", especially one intended in a derogatory manner, I would find suspect, unless of course one can back it up.

Any old tom,dick,and harry could do the same.

I have no problem with McCain's "passion". IMHO, we need that in the WH.

OMG you cant possibly be typing that with a straight face. You ate up the Whitey/birth cert/ Muslim lies and pushed them as hard as you could on this forum and only gave them up (dropped them as if they'd never happened) when even the liars who made them up were forced to admit they lied to you!

Yeah but no sanrene could because you clung to those stories as if they were guns and Bibles.

So you've said. That is so creepy I cant answer it. Perhaps I have been laboring under a misapprehension believing you to be female.

I have a friend who is a lifelong R and involved in national political issues. She told me a few months ago that she would not vote for him because of his temper. She has voted in every election since she was 18 and always for the R and her only question now is whether to vote for Obama or not vote.

What is creepy? You happen to believe McCain called his wife the "C" word with absolutely no evidence. I don't think he did and until I see the evidence your belief is creepier than mine.

When did they admit they lied? The whitey tape, if it exists, will be out in the fall. The muslim thing - there is some evidence contrary to the denials. The BC - I would have preferred one directly issued from the office of records in Hawaii.

I am woman.

Can't believe how gullible some people are.
I don't need you to tell me how gullible I am. I am smart enough to make my decisions on things. Keep your comments to yourself.

I'm glad you are aware of that. And no, if you post, I will comment if I want to. I suggest you not post if things like that bother you.

Your comment saying that I am gullible is based on something that you do not know. When you know that I am gullible, then you have every right to state so, so until you can provide evidence then buzz off.

I said some people are gullible. If you assume I meant you, maybe the shoe fits.

Based on this 'story', I would say there is a high probability a person would be somewhat gullible to believe it without confirmation.

No assuming here because YOU quoted my text. Don't quote my text if you don't mean me specifically.

I said; Can't believe how gullible some people are.

I would assume that about those that accept the "story" out of hand. You included.

Don't be so gullible then.
