yeah but for those who read what I wrote can clearly see that I said "grading scale." on a typical grading scale, anything below a 60% is a failure. had I said, something about barry playing baseball, then yes, that would be a good average. however, a little reading next time. oh and for the record, where I am from, anything below a 63 is failure.

I read your contrived example and corrected it. But the real election count was 365-173.

There have been times when I have had to choose between two candidates I liked.



See above. It wasn't supposed to be a pro-life rally.



Yes. They showed more maturity than a lot of posters here on CD who are significantly older than 22!

you actually corrected nothing. you also suffered a failed attempt at wit. I also said popular vote. don't they teach you to read in DC's failed public schools, or did marion spend all that school money on hookers and crack?

If you were really here then you know there was more coke being snorted in the White House than city hall.

Seriously.

Every time I say that in a debate, the pro lifers have NOTHING to say back. I am like "If the woman was raped-she may not have the money or resources to raise the child...so would you be ok if she had government help?"

They then SCREAM about socialism.

Ignorant FOOLS!

yeah but it wasn't caught on camera. that's what makes the marion barry thing for me. that and the fact that he majored in chemistry.

Hmmm. Yesterday, you said this was the first election you voted in or paid attention to something to that effect. So, either you're an old guy who just got into politics and assumed he knows everything or you're lieing and talking out your @ss. Rayful Edmond was arrested 20 years ago. I guess your were in your crib for the Barry Edmond era.
