June 4, 200818 yr Thankfully I know very few passionate democrats nor do I want to know very many. I have had a full time job for the same company since I was barely 18 years old, almost 40 years. I have worked for everything my family and I have. No one has ever given me anything. It irks me when people that are able to work choose not to and want me to pay for their welfare. I am an honorably discharged vietnam era army veteran and when I read that if I don't support Obama or Clinton, then I am either a racist, narrow minded or unpatriotic. I served my country with many blacks and women and was proud to do it. We had each others backs. I wonder how many passionate democrats actually served in the military. I fought for their right to support any candidate they choose. But please, just because I don't share their glee over the democratic ticket, don't put a label on me. I think I've earned the right to decide for myself. Well said! Thanks for your service. :thumb:
June 4, 200818 yr :thumb: It's really too bad that some people cannot just step back for a second and let the occassion set in, regardless of whether they are a R or a D, or whether they like Obama or not. I agree. I thought this said more about the country as a whole. But maybe I'm wrong.
June 4, 200818 yr Didn't listen to Obama's but listen to Hillary's. Since they share the same message, probably not much different. I heard her wax on eloquently about wanting children to be able to grow up and be whatever they want to be and have opportunities. Of course, that is if they ever are born because in a Democrat-controlled US, abortion rights would be strengthened and widen. And children would have those things along as they are not unborn children because the Dems feel they are simply a choice. I heard her wax on about the genocide of Darfur and how we had to stop such things. All the while her and her party are committing genocide in this country in the name of choice. They wipe out 3,500 unborn children a day, say that is acceptable and then feign horror at what is going on in Darfur. The blood on their hands from abortions is greater than what is going on in Darfur. How someone can be proud of a party that feels it is acceptable in our society to kill unborn children and then call that a GREAT TIME is beyond my understanding. My definition is not a party that feels it is acceptable in our society to kill 3500 unborn children each day.
June 4, 200818 yr First of all I sorted through your novel; and obviously mislead speech after being fired up by Obma's speech last night. I saw that as well and noticed a few things........... 1.) His slogan is "Change", but what is the change? He has never said that. 2.) He is a typical/steroetype politician, says whatever the crowd that he is talking to wants to hear. 3.) He can read a tela prompter 4.) Of course the crowd was energized, they were probably all drunk and it was Obama's crowd.....a lot of misled and very impressionable young people. 5.)As far as the "True democrat" statement, I can tell that you are probably young bc there is not a True Democrat in Washington today and there hasn't been for quite some time. What you are referring to a true Democrats or True far Left Liberal Wacko's....Obama, Clinton, Boxer, Pelosi, Schumer, Kennedy, and a whole line of others. 6.)You have called the Republican side "old" and the Dems have Sen. "KKK" Byrd form W.Va sitting or sleeping (not sure which) at his desk and podium, that fossil can sleep standing up. :lol:. Not to mention one that has had some severe health problems lately that I honestly and sincerely feel for so I won't bring him into it other than this mention. So to all of the "Energized Dems".....Pot, Meet Kettle. You are just younger, not different. Now, thre is my sermon. :lol::lol::lol: I hope that he does. He may now have developed carpal tunnel. :thumb::thumb: Me either, this country does need some changes but they are not it. Again I agree, the Obama/Clinton/Clinton ticket (if that is what it will be) is not an answer to anything except letting the terrorist nations celebrate a victory and accept the invitation to attack the U.S. even more, it would be made easy for them.......again. Also a fine time to be a conservative Democrat:thumb: and there are still plenty of those out there. They just tend to not rant and rave making the Democratic logo out of themselves. You have to be kidding me.

But gee, lbbc, like Obama said - "I don't want my daughter to be punished for a mistake." Sad, isn't it?
June 4, 200818 yr But gee, lbbc, like Obama said - "I don't want my daughter to be punished for a mistake." Sad, isn't it? What happened to a country that an unborn baby was a blessing from God. Now it is a mistake that we should be able to cast aside like we do going to the table and getting too big of a helping of mashed potatoes.

John McCain likes to do what some people refer to as "flip flop" when it comes to abortion. He says he is against it, but if it were his own daughter, he feels like it would be her decision to make. So he thinks his daughter should be able to choose, but the decision should already be made for everyone else.
June 4, 200818 yr What happened to a country that an unborn baby was a blessing from God. Now it is a mistake that we should be able to cast aside like we do going to the table and getting too big of a helping of mashed potatoes. I'm with you 100%, the lack of morals in this country is frightening, sad and pathetic.
June 4, 200818 yr I think all life from unborn to senior citizens should be held precious. We are only given ONE LIFE. THat is it. It is the most precious thing we have. And we should hold life in high esteem. And we don't in this country. And Jim Shue's continued pointing out the hypocrisy of the death penalty with my above statement has really made me rethink my position on it. While I am not ready to say I am against the death penalty, I am not hartily for it anymore, either. That thought process is still evolving.
June 4, 200818 yr So it's great because we will have an African American running for President and possibly a woman running on the same ticket? OK, I agree that's nice and all, but skin color and gender doesn't make a great President or VP. Neither does charisma or or oratory skills. All I can say to you Obama groupies is, be careful what you wish for, you may be paying for it dearly. Yes, it is, whether a "great" President or VP is the result or not. The mere fact that a man of color is the presumptive nominee of one of the two major parties is an astounding thing. And we're already paying dearly for the policies of the current administration, and it's looking more and more like my children and grandchildren will be, too.
June 4, 200818 yr I don't believe in racial quotas. There are many African-Americans who are well qualified to be president but Barack Obama is not one of them.

June 4, 200818 yr We have a one issue voter! While we may not see eye-to-eye on many political issues, LBBC has made no secret of the fact that there is one over-arching issue for him when it comes to the person(s) for which he will cast his ballot.:thumb:
June 5, 200818 yr I don't believe in racial quotas. There are many African-Americans who are well qualified to be president but Barack Obama is not one of them. I feel you! What African Americans would be qualified? In my opinion Colin Powell has been a prime canidate for many years.
