I was for Obama but he keeps making statements such as:
He admires Ronald Reagan
He prays to Jesus every night
He will consult with George Herbert Walker Bush if elected
He said "a woman should consult with her pastor before having an abortion"
He wants to keep the Office of Faith Based Giving:

I thought Hillary Clinton just gave a great speech. I liked it when she said she wants to end the war on science.
Hitlery will force you to get insurance you can't afford or be penalized if you don't have it - essentially cow-towing to the insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies that back her.
She will finish selling off US technology to China, and essentially use US forces to protect foreign governments (against the Constitution). The borders will be wide open, and the Amero will be instituted under the guise of the 'American Union' that government officials still deny - and you'll pay for it.
NONE of the 3 main 'choices' for President are operating in the best interest of the US, and will further drag us down in the eyes of the world.

Everyone should have health care but it should be paid for the same way we pay for the war. I have yet to see a monthly bill for the Iraq war. Both Clinton and Obama want to bill us. The difference is under Obama, he says "If health care is affordable, everyone will buy it." That is a lie and he knows it and it was my first inkling that I don't like the guy. That is not "Universal Health Care" as he calls it.
Did you hear Obama's plan for Iraq? He wants to pull the troops out but if things go bad, (and they will) he wants to put the troops back.
Don't play music chairs with the troops! Do you have any idea with the price of oil the way it is how expensive that will be? and he wants health care too? The guy is not playing with a full deck.

Doctors are required to go to 6 -8 years of college and medical school yet anyone can be president. I don't understand this. We need an overhaul of everything. There ought to be a special college and apprenticeship to be a president.

Regarding Zer's post:
We make fun of people but it is not alright to make a racial slur etc.. This falls under that category.

not really true. the party itself makes sure that only "qualified" individuals run for office.

I`m special, so I´m still pc (unfortunately).

Special in the context I wrote it means a human with the misfortune to have a disability (mental or physical handicap) making participation in certain of the usual activities of daily living more difficult. There's a fine line between what's funny & what's not on that subject and ultimately it depends on your taste in humour. For example, I don't think it's funny to make jokes about blind or deaf people, but comedians & joke writers seem to like to do exactly that. Personally, I just find it too sick minded to make joke pictures which include someone mentally or physically disabled.
Party on.

McCain will change the laws so that a US ciutizen can become President.
Being born in the US will no longer be a requirement,
Then a nation wide recall will be done as they did in California, and we can have Scharzenegger for President.
Actors make the best Presidents.

Hey, wait a minute! That qualifies as posting a joke picture which includes someone who's mentally or physically disabled.

Nope. It depends on the frontiers you built yourself in your brain. According to my Schwerbehindertenausweis I´m 65 % disabled with a large G which means I shouldn't try a marathon.

About 25 years ago I saw a blind man standing behind his 6/7 year old son who was playing Space Invaders. I was only 9 or 10 at the time, but I can remember feeling really sad when I realised that the man would probably never actually see his son. I must be too soft or something.
Disabled people certainly don't want or need pity, but they deserve not to be mocked.... period.

Nope. you have been educated to behave p.c. But hey - even bad jokes are joke. You make jokes about hispanics, latinos, italians, germans, chinese and whatsoever? So what´s the matter about disabled? They even make jokes about themselves...and I sware - not the good ones
I don`t know what to do with the UK who wrote their fairy tale of three little pigs into one of three little dogs just to avoid a possible conflict of a strange religion.
It´s the wrong way. Behave as you are. Not as an actor of p. c. or whatever your mind is turned on. A german is a german, nothing more nothing less. A disabled is a disabled and nothing more or nothing less.
To say it with the (translated) words of the well known german punk band "die toten Hosen": foreigners, gays, cripples & jews could be assholes, too. Just keep that in mind.

Ok Zer, you're right & I'm wrong. Do whatever you want (as you're free to do).
I must say though... imo forum members have been banned for less.

Btw Zer, it's the quality of the content that I'm questioning. The forum is full of twisted humour, but this isn't rotten.com.

free feel to ban me if that`s what your pleasure likes. I`m not interested in playing fancy role playing games, but into severe discussions, which may exceed the rules of small talk and pointing inner things out.

I can't ban you Zer & I wouldn't do so even if I could, but I'll tell you that I was almost banned for (what I consider to be) a hell of a lot less than what you post most months.
edited a typo - I typed 'that' instead of 'than'.

I can`t stand jealousy

But I can`t help it.

Trust me, there's no jealousy. Nobody else seems offended, so it must just be me.
