I am genuinely wondering. Are there people who truly believe the US is better now then it was 8 yrs ago? I have been out of the country for a while now, so I really dont know. With the war, the economy, the deficit, our standing with the world, have we improved?

Why would you vote for McCain? Why would you not?

Play nice now, grown ups have no need for name calling and mudslinging.

Okay. I see it this way. If I go out to have a nice meal at Mortons and the owner of the Sizzler down the street comes over and craps on my Porterhouse steak, should I blame Mortons or Sizzler?

Should I reward Sizzler?

Should I say. Mortons serves crappy food?

We ate at Sizzler for the preceding 8 years. Mortons did not send someone over to crap on their food.

Me, personally, I would blame myself. Why would I allow someone to crap on my porterhouse?

Because Sizzler was just exercising its Constitutional Freedom To Crap On My Porterhouse according the the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Not sure which Constitution you follow... but I am completely lost in this analogy.

Dude, if you would quit editing your posts maybe people could make sense of what ever the hell it is you are trying to say. Try to pronouncinicate what you mean the first time.
