too much opinion, and bias at that. Also, women do have a choice. A choice to get pregnant or not. 99% of unwanted pregnancies have nothing to do with rape or health risks. Just girls who made a mistake and don't wanna step up and be responsible. A child is a miracle that deserves to leave his footprint on this world. Well, there's my ramble, take it or leave it.

and the 11th thing that most people dont respect or even mention 11- john mccain was a war veteran and pow, which is a prisoner of war for 5 YEARS he was tortured for 5 years, they broke his arms and legs and threw him in a dark little room for 5 years now think about that you political idiots

The flagship journal of the APA, with one of the highest impact factors of scientific journals in its discipline, had a recent article investigating the relationship between political orientation and IQ. Results showed that the more socially liberal you are, the higher your IQ. Put differently, the less socially liberal you are, the more of an ignorant inbred hillbilly you are. Psychological Science Jan2008 Vol.19 Issue 1 p1-6 The abstract: tinyurl . com / 4etbdu remove the spaces bubbas ;)

i am not a republican, and i dont like john mccain one bit. hes obviously not even smart enough to be a senator. but doesnt anyone realize what roe vs. wade was about? do any of you people understand that states should make their own laws and the federal government should stay out of it? i am in favor of a womans right to choose and if she chooses to do something that is against the law, wouldnt it be convenient if all she had to do was cross state lines to do it legally?

since I have wrote this I have watched the debates. To me its clear that McCain would continue to go down the wrong path that we are on. And to relate race with age or what appears to be her low intelligence seems a little odd. anyways I'm not your buddy

actually mccain is old and having palin as a possible president is absolutely ridiculous which is a valid argument. sorry but that is not the same as using skin colour to decide a president...idiot
ek9009 (Friday 10th of October 2008 12:59:07 PM)
So you aren't voting for McCain because he is old and Palin because she is a joke. Great, solid reasons you have there buddy. That's like saying you aren't voting for Obongo because he is black

Let's not get to angry ourselves. There is enough of that on the Right. Once Obama is in office we HAVE TO bring the country together. Together we will again gain our footing and be the greatest America that we can be.

John McNasty and Sarah Sixpack Failin'.....historical footnotes in the history of our great country. They were defeated in a landslide democratic vicotry in 2008 - cuz the American People wanted "something different"...wanted a "fresh clean slate" and believed in the HARVARD GRAD - an interesting and decent guy from Hawaii - something new....someone deserving and respected. :)
