That reminds me, the Nixon Library is located in OC. Boy that's something to be proud of.

Incredibly flawed judgment is what Republicans represent and I find that your assessment of Barack Obama is mere fishing. The man transcends your nonsense, no question.

This election, the president will be elected by those enlightened folks who weren't foolish enough to vote for the village idiot in '04. Obama can count among his supporters the most educated in this country. He will get the vote of those who recognize the error in their ways and have corrected it. There are millions who are sick of the Republicans. Sick to death of the lies, the spins, the racism, the divisiveness, the ineffective policies, the lack of solutions to today's problems, the detached diplomacy, the arrogance and pompous ineptness. Republicans told us that George Bush deserved a second term to "finish the job." As we sit here now, we know that this was a lie. George Bush NEVER had any chance of wrapping up an ideological war that he chose to fight with guns. Now Republicans have put forth another pathetic man in McCain and the lies continue.

So fish on without effect. But remember, as a Republican or McCain supporter, you have no credibility, especially when it comes to the next President of the US: Barack Obama. Your purpose is in showing the world who the WRONG candidate is, and that's John McCain. You do that quite well.
I find it rather ironic that after the democratic primaries where blacks pretty much voted heavily for Obama because he's black (polls in MS confirmed this) and a number of Hillary supporters were called racists when she carried a state on the white vote (WV I believe). Good to know that the Republicans are evil racists. You really have no clue.

I fully agree that Bush is one of the worst Presidents in US history but the elitist hate you spout is mind-numbingly arrogant. I picture you and your close-minded friends all sitting around agreeing how smart one another is in your political views, while drinking the kool-aid. When you get older and hopefully wiser, you might come to realize that the 2 parties are remarkably similar.

Look at the nomination votes for guys like Gen. Petraeus and Roberts to the supreme court....virtually unanimous despite political posturing otherwise. Also the voting for the Iraq war, the failure to actually pass anti-oil company laws despite promises to the socialist far left. Don't get me wrong, republicans do it too...I find it funny how blind mono-party voters are.

You made this post 3 years ago. I underlined and bolded the interesting part. How do you feel now?

P.S. I voted for Obama.

Truer words have never been spoken and the sentiments here still remain superior to any opposing, misguided views from the Right. I was absolutely right before and Republicans still represent "more Bush." Replace McCain here with the GOP nominee and the sentiments still ring true.

President Obama on his way to a second term.

3 years ago you said the following with regards to the Iraq war.

Like it or not, in the last 3 years you have become what you once despised.

Obama could ban abortion, lower taxes, abolish social security and invade Canada and you'd help hold him a fund-raiser.

Thanks for supporting the Republican party platform. As long as the Republicans get a guy in the White House with a faux (D) at the end of his name that they can bully into following thier initiatives you will go along with it. Well done! Karl Rove should send you a fruit basket for the holidays.

It's ok because in his first post he was a Democrat and now he is a Republican supporter. A lot of people have gone through this change since 2008.
