It's not that Bush loves immigrants. The Republican party caters to them.Zitat:
Zitat von JEMdev
Extremely limited version:
Cuban-Americans are predominantly Republican because of the failure of the Invasion of Cuba by pro-democracy exiled Cuban Nationals at the Bay of Pigs in 1961. These soldiers were funded and trained by our C.I.A. for the purpose of liberating Cuba from totalitarian/dictatorial/communist rule. The U.S. promised air support and C.I.A. agents and assets on the ground to support the invasion. The C.I.A./J.F.K. gave the go-ahead for the invasion and then J.F.K. withheld air support and the C.I.A. support.
JFK was a Democrat.
In Miami there is a monument/memorial to the soldiers who fought at the Bay of Pigs.
For more detail look up Invasion of the Bay of Pigs, Cuba.
JFK made the right decision
Definitely Obama, I used to like Mccain a lot...but the last month has changed it all. And if things go as planned that will be the reality next year.

McCain is a good guy, but unfortunately, he's been falling more and more in line with standard party procedure over the past few years
its sad really
wood??? :confused:Zitat:
Zitat von JEMdev
Yeah McCain is probably one of the best republicans out there, decent guy. And wouldn't be a bad president at all. But lately he's gotten into the more dark side of politics..and its sad to say the least. And Sarah Palin is just...

...And Obama just beats him down.
Maybe you guys can answer my question:
Why is it, that if Obama is the would-be president, he is spending over $700 million (average) on advertising? If he saved that money for when he is actually the president, he could be using it for the economy crisis. But instead, he uses it so that he has his own cable/satellite channel on TV running 24/7. It seems like he's quite worried about how everything is going right now. Of course, he's leading in the polls, but then why the heck does he need all of that money to swing the independents?
Frankly, I think that it's quite a waste. He's even putting his ads in video games as well, if he really already has won, then he shouldn't need to pour all of that money into publicity.
OBAMA!!
All hail the chief!
I support obama because he seems to be more for the people then government and he seems to care about helping the people will helping out with the economy, plus I have a bet with my mom that Obama is going to win.
But if Mccain wins that good for him.
To me it doesn't really who wins cuz I dont care who messes up our country even worse. lmao but I could be wrong
No, he could not. You can't use campaign funds to fund the government.Zitat:
Zitat von spike021
And what's this about "on average"? He spent $150,000,000 in September and that was an all-time record. Might want to check your sources.
Wait ... where does campaign money come from?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe donations.Zitat:
Zitat von eldiablov
Then may I ask why it matters about how much Obama has spent on his campaign?
Because people like to bring up irrelevant points to try and make the opposing side seem unethical or "wrong".Zitat:
Zitat von eldiablov
These weak arguments do nothing to support their crumbling views.
From supporters, each donation is well accounted for. And i think the max that any one person that can donate is $100. But the U.S. government matches the donation received + more. So basically, they get money from supporters and tax payers.Zitat:
Zitat von eldiablov
As a US citizen you can publicly view the names of donators and how much they donated to the candidate.
it is $2000(with inflation adjustments I believe it is actually $2300) and that only applies to those receiving public financing, so it doesn't effect obama, but does apply to mccainZitat:
Zitat von Jatt101
http://f6y.ath.cx/images/taxplans.gif
Think that about sums it up.
Zitat:
Zitat von freeplay
but what about the money mccain needs to bai ur haos????
That's 'cuz he knows companies will charge more if they have to pay more. If you charge the companies more, it will reflect on you, anyways.
In other words: You're screwed either way.
I'm still vouching for the person who cares about national safety.
Charge more because they have to pay more? Don't count on it.
That is such a ridiculous claim.Zitat:
Zitat von NoEffex
Because staying in Iraq for 100 years is such a great way to protect us from those responsible for 9/11 right? Oh, and it really helps with Iran. And in general makes all of those countries not want to blow us up, right?Zitat:

We cannot leave Iraq, because all our efforts would have been in vain. We removed an evil, evil dictator who tortured his people for fun. The Iraqis love us. If we leave, we will put all of their lives in danger, AGAIN.
On another note, Obama is now a disgrace of a human being. I don't even want to be considered an American if he is president. The son of a ***** supports all types of abortion, even partial abortion. HE CALLS A DAMN BABY A PUNISHMENT. How dare he EVER call life a punishment. F*CK Obama. I cannot say into words my hatred for that disgrace of a human being.
WHAT!?! source for your bs please?Zitat:
Zitat von NoEffex
1.when did he call it a punishment?Zitat:
Zitat von NoEffex
2. just because of this ONE issue he is a "disgrace of a human being"? well then,based on that logic, because of all the things i disagree with you on, you are the ultimate piece of **** scum not worthy of the air you breath.
but, I dont use your logic, so I feel that you are merely an uninformed, and possibly willfully ignorant person.
Why is abortion even an issue we're discussing? Republicans only brought that **** up to win middle and lower class religious voters, and distract them from the fact their economic policies are never in the poor man's favor.
Gun laws, abortion, and gay marriage are all bullsh*t issues that are only used to trick the people Republicans have been f*cking over since Reagan, that they're on their side. They've abused government to slice this country up a little finer amongst themselves, and it's retards like NoEffex that keep re-electing them and keep them in power.
If you disagree with Obama's war plan, you're wrong, but entitled to that opinion. But to actually let some bullsh*t like abortion even affect your view in any way is just ridiculous, you shouldn't even be allowed to call your self a free man, because you're squandering that freedom by falling into the easiest trap to avoid.

What if the baby is due to rape, is it still wrong for the mother to want to have an abortion and if so congress to have passed abortion, it's safer in hospitals than it is at home where the mother and baby are at risk.
Abortion and gay marrige are all personal issues that people shouldn't worrie about!!!!Zitat:

Irrelevant; most abortions aren't from rape.Zitat:

Zitat von NoEffex
How the f*ck in god's good name could you possibly even SLIGHTLY believe that the Iraqis LOVE AMERICANS. This statement is LAUGHABLE. They f*cking HATE you to say the absolute least. You stormed the f*ck in there with absolutely no proof whatsoever of any "weapons of mass destruction", you went against the UN's wishes by them not approving of this war, and you tore Iraq right the f*ck up with very little attempt of piecing it back together. It is a MESS and a disaster. Staying in there and continuing to throw billions of dollars into a firepit while this economic crisis is striking back home is what you believe, a good thing?
Okay, name calling is a very mature and rational way to deal with your problems! Let's all do it together now!
Seriously, with that aside, you are despicable. First, I would love to see some sources. Second, degrading someone as less than a human being for beliefs that, according to CNN, 53% of your country agrees upon is just downright stupid.
Now regardless of all of this, much like Joey said, basing your decisions upon something as stupid as this is f*cking retarded.
"Gun laws, abortion, and gay marriage are all bullsh*t issues that are only used to trick the people Republicans have been f*cking over since Reagan, that they're on their side."
Beautifully said.

Now going back to that whole "Obama is a muslim, and not a christian" thing that you were going on about last week, I found this article that is a civilized reasonable read.

Find me at least 5 occassions in which an abortion was preformed because of rape. The police administer Plan B (aka "the morning after pill") to rape victims the minute they are in custody.Zitat:
Zitat von leejames04
Abortions are done for convinience only. No more, no less. Anything else is an excuse to justify it.
NoEffex and NickyP, the distance between your mindset and reality is f*cking astonishing.
DO THEY GET TO CHOOSE BETWEEN BLUE AND RED PILL LIKE IN THE MATRIX ?!?!?11Zitat:
Zitat von NickyP
Seriously, dont talk about things you have no idea about. Most rape victims are too afraid to come to the police about the horrific crime that happened in the first place.
Obama is my choice for this years election!!!!! I just can not handle another 4 years of another Bush in the hot seat. Obama tends to know what he is speaking about if he doesn't he will ask experienced people instead of acting like he knows it all and makes it seem like everything has an easy solution....McCain!! By the way God forbid but if McCain passes away Palin will be in charge..........HELL NO CAN'T HAVE THAT!!!!!
I'm still waiting for those 5 instances in which an abortion was preformed because of rape, FreePlay.Zitat:
Zitat von FreePlay
Of course, the possibility is definately there (that much one can't argue), but have you ever actually heard of that being the case? It's most likely because of convinience ("Oh crap, I'm pregnant! Now I'll have to quit school! I'll have to lose my job! My life is over" etc). With all the people I know who are attorneys, DAs, retired and active police officers, not once have I heard of that being the case. Like I said, rape victims are given Plan B immediately once they are in the custody of the police (granted that it isn't past the 72 hour window)... at least, here in Florida. I can't say much about the other states in the US.
Your intolerance to other peoples views' is the astonishing thing.
Dear god you are so ****ing stupid ...Zitat:
Zitat von NickyP
Some rape victims DONT ADMIT TO BEING RAPED. How the **** do you even expect FreePlay to find five people that have had an abortion due to rape? Do you think a news story publishes every abortion story known to man?
http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpag...53C1A96F948260
Now you can stick your five up your ass.
Of course they don't. In fact, MANY rapes never get reported, not just "some".Zitat:
Some rape victims DONT ADMIT TO BEING RAPED.
Oh, wow! Thanks for posting that article, eldiablov! You actually just helped me prove my point even more! Granted those numbers are from the 80's and can't reflect for certain these days, but the data is plain as day: "Indeed, in a 1987 survey by the Alan Guttmacher Institute in which abortion patients were asked why they were having an abortion, only 1 percent of the 1,900 women questioned named rape or incest. And 95 percent of those who mentioned rape or incest named other reasons as well for deciding to abort, the institute said. "Zitat:
Only 1% of abortions in America are due to rape? 95% of that 1% claimed they had other reasons for aborting as well?
Gee, eldiablov. You sure fixed my red-wagon! :ROFL:
You would probably do the same if you were in that situation.Zitat:
Zitat von NickyP
If you're a high schooler who somehow got pregnant and your parents throw you out of the house, isn't your life a living hell? Hell, I'd rather kill myself than be in that crappy of a situation. Think of it this way, you're a homeless person at the age of 17, you have no money, you're pregnant, you don't have adequate healthcare to even deliver the baby, your life is ruined unless you meet nice enough people to foster you (which isn't the case most of the time).
And if you haven't noticed, America is built on convenience. Of course people are going to care if it's convenient or not. Why do we have drive thrus? Why do we have fast food restaurants? Why does everybody own a car? The American society is based off of doing things fast and efficiently. And if you were a pregnant teenager without money, you can't accomplish either of those things. So of course people are going to use that as a reason. Morals or no morals, convenience is always first to the people in this country. Maybe that's why we're all lazy mother****ers who don't want to get up off our asses to get the remote in the couch cushions.
No matter how few rape victims there are, it only takes one to complain. It's like making a stereotype about certain people and having one of the minority there in your face telling you how racist you are because of what you said. I once got yelled at because I said most black people like chicken. The girl that happened to be sitting next to me got all pissed off because she didn't like chicken, telling me I was being racist. Stupid, huh? And yet, it happens. It only takes one case to turn things around.
And lastly, this whole abortion thing has me scratching my head. Aren't we entitled to our own freedoms? So basically, if we make abortion illegal, we don't give a choice. I thought we were supposed to have choices for ourselves? However, if we make it legal like it has been, there is a choice as to having a baby or not having a baby. If we're thinking of this in an "American" way, the second option is much more "American". While the first option seems like something coming out of the old Soviet Union. People are entitled to what they think. But if half the people want abortion and half do not, why not give them the choice? Are people SO crazy about this that they forget about the other issues in our world today? While some 45 year old woman who has had no child in her life and does not know how hard it is to deliver and raise a baby protests outside an abortion center, there is genocide, famine, starving children, homeless people, and so many other things that are wrong with this world going on. And yet, they're worrying about abortion? I am incredibly confused.
Need I record a conversation I've had with quite a few soldiers?Zitat:
Zitat von Slasher
I never said I thought he was a muslim, because I do not. I do think he is a disgrace of a human being for what he supports. Partial birth abortion...****ing disgrace.
Even if, by that 0.0000000001% chance he is muslim, he's not a terrorist.
Also, since I keep getting hammered by the biased sources, I know for a fact what you just posted was biased. Post something unbiased and I might bother reading it.
The people love us because they aren't getting tortured by Sadam Hussein, you think people LIKED him? They HATED him. It's the Taliban that hates us.
Also, going off on abortion, I SAY WE SHOULD MAKE VACUUMING CATS TO DEATH LEGAL. I mean, they are pests, right? They annoy you, and they might have a crappy life scourging for food.
If Obama gets elected, I will refuse to consider myself a citizen of the United States, and move the **** across the world to get away from the atrocity.
Going off about mature and rational way of dealing with the atrocity...what in the world do you expect me to do? Sit here and ignore the fact that hundreds, if not thousands, of babies aren't given a chance at life? Life isn't a ****ing thing you can just throw in the trash.

OMG, abortions happen already. You're still living here. What's the big deal? Maybe you should just move out already. We have bigger problems than just abortion.
