Are you two implying Guy is a troll? I'm guessing there is something I'm missing never having posted on AFB.

Sounds like you're smokin' crack. A crack smokin' cracker.

Simplistic works great for simpletons like you. It's only when practical reality intervenes that poorly considered ideas have problems.

Let's give McCain a chance. Maybe this time around reality won't interfere with policies based on mere platitudes.

...Because the attendees at the Church and the viewers on CNN, CSPAN, MSNBC, and FOX all had the opportunity to hear each candidate's response and decide which was best. As I've said earlier in this message string, the best response was clearly McCain's.

McCain jumped at the "answer" of every question, many times "answering" before the good Reverend even finished asking the question. He was so well rehearsed with "answers" that when a question was asked he didn't know the "answer" to, he didn't answer it.

When Obama was asked about the three wisest people he ever knew, he mentioned people he actually knew. People who shaped his life. His grandmother and his mother being two.
Who did McCain name? A CEO, a guy whose skull was fractured so he was brave, and General David Petraeus. THESE ARE THE THREE WISEST PEOPLE HE KNOWS? Does he know the meaning of the word "wise". Obviously, he memorized a different answer.

What's worse, Petraeus said the central front against al Qaeda IS IN AFGHANISTAN. McCain said, loud and clear, that the central front to al Qaeda is in Iraq and that we "succeeded in Iraq". READ THE IRAQ CONSTITUTION AND TELL ME HOW WELL WE SUCCEEDED. ASK THE IRAQ CHRISTIANS (if you can find any) AND TELL ME HOW WELL WE SUCCEEDED.

Go to an Iraqi Church and pray. Hope you don't mind ashes. Nearly every Church has been burned to the ground.

Right out of the New Iraq Constitution:

Article (2):
1st — Islam is the official religion of the state and is a basic source of legislation:
(a) No law can be passed that contradicts the undisputed rules of Islam.
2nd — This constitution guarantees the Islamic identity of the majority of the Iraqi people and the full religious rights for all individuals and the freedom of creed and religious practices.
Article (3): Iraq is a multiethnic, multi-religious and multi-sect country. It is part of the Islamic world and its Arab people are part of the Arab nation.

NOTE: WHEN THE CONSTITUTION TALKS ABOUT RELIGIOUS FREEDOM, IT IS "WITHIN" ISLAM. NO OTHER RELIGION IS PROTECTED.

American sons and daughters died for this contitution. Iraq had a population of 1.4 MILLION in just 2004. Now it is less than 700,000. Good work Bush, McCain. It worked.

I love it when Conservatives try to tie Iraq with the attack on 9/11. Even Bush says not only was there never a connection, he doesn't know where America got the idea. Let's see. Bin Laden was in Afghanistan. Bin Laden admits to attacking America. So the US military goes to Iraq to make a fundamentalist, Islamic government. It only makes sense if you are a Republican.

And when he did talk about helping America, his answers were nonsensical and disconnected.

Example:

McCain's answer for creating better schools was to go to a different school and leave the bad ones behind. Not a word about making the schools better. It was all about vouchers and home schooling.

He made jokes about education. It's no surprise. McCain, like Bush before him, holds education in contempt. It's science and technology that makes this country strong. It's science and technology that keeps this country safe. McCain, like Bush before him jokes about education. BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T NEED IT. Bush, below average at Harvard only got in because of Daddy's connections. McCain 5th from the bottom out of 899 Cadents from the Naval Academy only got in because of Daddy's connections. AND IT SHOWED.

When asked about abortion, McCain never mentioned women or the child beyond "get it born". Obama talked about doing away with the need for abortion by helping women and supporting the child. From McCain, if you didn't know what abortion was, YOU WOULDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS ABOUT WOMEN. What do you expect from a man who supports governments funded Viagra but not birth control? Could his priorities be any more backward???? THE CONSERVATIVE POSITON HAS ALWAYS BEEN GET THEM BORN AND THEN SCREW 'EM. NOT MY KID.

McCain believes Scalia and Thomas are good Supreme Court Justices and would get rid of ALL the liberals if he gets the chance. Not understanding of any kind of balance, JUST LIKE BUSH.

McCain says "join the military" but has voted again and again against GI benefits. That was sickening. He even mentioned walking around that Baghdad market when he used 150 American soldiers as human body shields for a photo op. How the press has let him get away with this questions THEIR loyalty as Americans. How Obama lets him get away with that is beyond me.

When Obama was asked about the "difficult decision", it was how the majority of the US believed Iraq was connected to 9/11 (gee, I wonder where they got THAT idea? Bush said it wasn't from him.) but he opposed it. McCain's difficult decision was about McCain. Actually, when ever McCain veered away from McCain, it got weird.

He talks about drilling offshore but has no idea where the oil is OR EVEN IF THERE IS OIL. He is NEVER called on that, EVER. I suspect he doesn't know what exploration is or what it means. Or maybe his answer is to drill everywhere?

A perfect example of "memorized" answers, he was told there are 148 million orphans world wide. Bush put together an AIDS plan to help victims of AIDS. Would McCain do something similar for the orphans? His answer, "make adoption easier in this country"? Did he even hear the question? Oh he heard it alright. But he had memorized a different answer. Makes you wonder if he got the questions before hand, but he didn't do the best job of memorizing. Who knows, maybe his answer was to bring 148 million orphans to this country? Just to make it clear, MCCAIN'S ANSWER TO THE 148 MILLION ORPHANS WORLDWIDE WAS TO MAKE IT EASIER TO ADOPT HERE IN THIS COUNTRY.

McCain talks about the Christians in Georgia, BUT HAS NEVER, EVER MENTIONED THE CHRISTIANS IN IRAQ, NEVER!!!! The press has let him get away with this every time.

The absolute worst answer that McCain gave was about poor Americans. First, when asked how he defines a "rich" American, his joke was people that have more than 5 million dollars, while laughing.
Bush laughs about poor people. Look at his "joke" about people losing their homes. Now Laura can buy a new one cheap.

McCain is exactly the same. He is so disconnected from reality. You know his wife gives him a huge allowance.

So, McCain said there are people who have lost their jobs, have no education, no health benefits, have lost their homes, but he, McCain, KNOWS WHAT THEY NEED. Hope and confidence. That's what he said. To people who have lost everything, he will give them "hope and confidence". JUST TO MAKE IT CLEAR, MCCAIN'S ANSWER TO POEPLE WHO ARE LOSING THEIR HOMES IS TO GIVE THEM HOPE AND CONFIDENCE.

NEVER DID JOHN MCCAIN TALK ABOUT PAYING FOR ANY OF HIS SCHEMES. NEVER. NOT ONCE.

After all this, the pun-dents talk about what a masterful job McCain has done. How prepared he was. How he didn't have to make any decisions or think about any answers. WELL, HE DIDN'T THINK ABOUT A SINGLE ANSWER AND IT SHOWED. If American votes this clown into office, we will get exactly what we deserve.

...and your usual 1/2 truths or faux facts from dishonest leftist sources don't count.
