Oh and btw, wasn't it Clinton that pushed through that bill that gave lenders less strict guidlines for loaning money to minorities, and people that didn't have the means to fullfill their contracts...I believe it was Clinton, not Bush....goes to find the answer....

See it is crap like this is why Mccain won't win this election. People like Mccain and some siege people are always stereotyping by always trying to associate welfare and the like with minorities. The fact of the matter is that 75% of the people in this country on welfare and foodstamps are white americans, not minorities.

And to the people trying to call Obama a racist, Mccain has been pratically holding KKK rallies and get the crowds all fired up (and later on tried to clean up his mess by saying Obama is a good man blah blah blah yaddy yaddy yah) and "his followers" yelling out crap like "death to Obama" and mumbo jumbo like that. This is the main reason why he will never be president of the USA.


And for the people who try to claim the USA don't murder ans whatnot...How soon how soon we forget. Wasn't it just last year when our troops were recorded torchering the prisoners and making them perform various sexual acts. Remember that? What about Vietnam? Remember how they were killing babies (infants) and raping women. It was so bad when the soldies came home our own people were spitting in their face for what they done over in vietnam. Remember that? I love this country as much as anyone, but don't be trying to act like we are holier than anyone else cause we're not.



It's time to face facts and let go of this whole "skin color" crap and start acting like civilized human beings. It's a new day! Barack Obama will be the next president of the United States rather you like it or not. Take a look around you, Mccain has pretty much dug himself in a hole so deep no one can pull him out of it. I have a better chance of winning the lottery than Mccain has at winning this election.


You people also make me laugh when you start trying to say Obama is a racist. Heck fire George Washington was a racist but you say he was one of the best presidents ever! You heard me right, George Washington owned slaves and that alone makes him a racist. And don't try and say back then everyone owned slaves so that makes it ok. I aint buying it. If everyone took turns beating on a 3 month old infant does that make it ok since "everyone" was doing it? I didn't think so.


The defense rests.

Nice debates all. went better then the real debate went.

Again I cant believe this thread went as long as it did without being locked.
two vol ital subjects conquered on stratics.:pancakes:
I appreciate the respect you have shown each other, though some of you have vastly differing opinions.

Not only do we get to read and think about these important issues, I think we get to know each other just a little better. It is more fun than the silly banter of typical forum PvP. *nods*

:link:

I have unequivocal proof that Obama associates with, and has been mentored by, a racist. Please show me yours about McCain.

And for the people who try to claim the USA don't murder ans whatnot...How soon how soon we forget. Wasn't it just last year when our troops were recorded torchering the prisoners and making them perform various sexual acts. Remember that?
College hazing-like incidents hardly equate to murder.

What about Vietnam? Remember how they were killing babies (infants) and raping women. It was so bad when the soldies came home our own people were spitting in their face for what they done over in vietnam. Remember that?
I know quite a few Viet Nam vets that didn't do any of that stuff. Were there some that did? Sure. However, labeling the entire US military, and the entire US for that matter, as murderers is irresponsible and repugnant.

It's a new day! Barack Obama will be the next president of the United States rather you like it or not.
Aye, comrade! Rejoice! The conversion from undercover socialism to blatant socialism is right around the corner!

The defense rests.
You say that like you made some salient points. Well done. However, asking for reasons why people won't vote for Obama, then latching onto and :bdh: one issue with questionable statements and ridiculous (and disturbing) examples while ignoring the SLEW of other concerns won't win you many court cases. But thanks for playing.

Look guys, I'm not trying to make any statements here, I'm just trying to seperate the myths from the facts about minorities and welfare. It doesn't take much effort on anyone's behalf to find these facts, all you have to do is call the department of human services office in your county and they will educate you about what you think you know, or what you don't know. This is no secret, it is nationaly common knowledge about who holds the highest number of welfare and food stamps participants. Actually i'm shocked that highly intelligent beings such as yoursef don't aready know this. And the percentage i told you is the percentage in the county where I reside. *shrugs*

I could throw hundreds of links at you that say the very same thing but what would it prove? But I'll go ahead and play your lil game if you like and throw something at ya just for the sake of participating in your game if it pleases you..... Mind you, this is straight from the American Psychological Association.

This is so laughable I can barely reply. If you think the number of average white Americans currently riding the welfare wagon in any one person's county is indicative of the number of average white Americans riding the welfare wagon in this country, then I truly feel sorry for you. Too many diversities in habitat, economic structure, average median incomes, real estate markets, even racial diversity plays a part...

No, but what you are trying to do is exactly what a lot of uninformed people do: throw a bunch of excrement at the wall and see what sticks but when someone questions your "facts" you move on to something else. I am NOT saying you are wrong about 75% of the welfare roles being white, however since whites are only 69% of the population, I find it unlikely.

I hate to bring up the pesky facts again but...he is arab. Darn that truth.

subtards before him, subtards as a running mate, and subtards voting for him.....ok not all of them, but alot!
And nothing but socialist pukes taking 5 minutes off from hating the US and asking for a handout from the government lining up to vote (over and over again) for Obama. Ok not all of them...but most.

1st point: As has been stated in all the media (not just the biased ones) Obama is not an arab (BTW arab means arabian). Obama's father was a Muslim until he went atheist, which was when Barack was less than 7 years old (too lazy to check for proof). Barack's mother was a christian. Even McCain said he wasn't an arab, finally. I was raised Catholic but that doesn't mean my future-born children are.

2nd point: The ACORN scandal has to do with voter registration, not voting. Voting still requires an ID of some sort and not just a name on a list.

I still find it amazing that the people who scold Obama for belonging to a racist "christian" church are the same ones who say he's an arab (Supposing you mean Muslim).

Make up your minds.

PS Fear mongering only works on the ignorant. This country was founded on the principles of a freedom of religion. I would love to see an "Arab" president (admittedly not until the problems that the US has in the middle east are solved).

Point taken. Muslim is what I was thinking, it's late. And I know a lot of Catholics that believe their kids are Catholic just because they are (my parents among them).

That's just ACORN. Register now, vote now started this year in Ohio. There are already stories of people heading down to Vet's Memorial Coliseum (ground zero for election fraud this year) after the Bruce Springstein concert and registering AND voting under false names, some multiple times that night alone.

Calling someone an Arab is not racist. Neither is calling someone black. Or white. Or Jewish. Or Asian. Hating someone because of that designation is.

The funny thing is, I never proclaimed to be anything. My mom based all her hopes on some debate about religion I had with her when I was 13. I thought she knew me better.

To get back on topic, anyone that supports the ideals of this country should have no problem with a person of any religion holding the office of the president. The only reason people would disapprove would be for those candidates that take the religion too literally, or those that have no religion at all.

Personally I'd also like to see an atheist president, but it is not likely to happen in my lifetime. Trophy religion seems to be a requirement, although most people don't want a zealot to be president. Nobody likes to admit it.. but the middle-of-the-road candidate usually wins.

I would take any "spiritual" person as a President, however I would not like to see an atheist. Sorry, I still haven't been convinced that we have similar road maps to go by. And I agree, no zealots. I'll take God fearing but I don't want a pastor in the White House.

This country needs a complete political overhaul. The money and power need to be removed from politics to get it back to its original intent: serving the people. I don't care one way or the other about term limits, I just think it should be all voluntary. That way, we'll get people who really want to make this country better. Until then, we are stuck with this two party system and in order to matter, you have to work within it.

I do not really believe a bi racial child would or could really be *racial* against their own bloodlines, for to do so would mean they have to hate half of whom they biologically ARE.

Guess some can be that way but.........not all. Obama is BI RACIAL he seems to accept his dual gene pool. There are others whom may believe bi racial people can see both sides of any major racial coin far easier than others can ever let or permit themselves to do. *just my own humble thoughts on his gene pool he is bi thus duo races typical usa melting pot, as he himself has said often.*

"I would agree with Shh, as in his socialist slant. I don't believe in universal health care, it hasn't worked for other countries and it sure wouldn't work for us. I don't think taxing the people who achieve goals in our county more than the majority of americans who are just plain lazy (I being one of them) is a viable solution. I don't like his background, his nazi pastor, his communist wife and his partner in crime Bill Ayers. Obama has a sketchy past and just for that alone I would not vote for him."

No universal healthcare isn't working for Canada?, furthermore Obama's plan isn't universal heathcare. I love how you define the middle class as lazy, nice one. the rich have gotten much richer in the last 10 years and the poor much poorer and the middle class is paying for both of them. His nazi pastor, his communist wife, and his partner in crime bill ayers? wow, I like how people he has meet in life, shaked hands with, or did business with makes him a nazi, communist, terrorist. get a clue.

He's the first black secretary of state (I think?).

As much as I am going to throw up a little in my mouth when I vote for McCain, I will take great pleasure in knowing I'll be canceling out your vote. Small victories I guess.

No universal healthcare isn't working for Canada?, furthermore Obama's plan isn't universal heathcare. I love how you define the middle class as lazy, nice one. the rich have gotten much richer in the last 10 years and the poor much poorer and the middle class is paying for both of them. His nazi pastor, his communist wife, and his partner in crime bill ayers? wow, I like how people he has meet in life, shaked hands with, or did business with makes him a nazi, communist, terrorist. get a clue.

1) No, it's not working for Canada. Not if you want anything preventative done or aren't on death's doorstep.

2) The middle class isn't lazy. Neither are rich people. Or poor people. None of them, as a group, are. However, people that walk into the voting booth thinking they are on Let's Make A Deal and pull the lever for the guy that's going to give them the most stuff are lazy. I know people in all three "classes" that fit that description and they all make me sick.

3) I don't care who has gotten richer or poorer. The opportunity is out there. Go work for it. I'm underpaid for someone with a college degree. Guess what? That's my fault, not the governments.

4) Bammy didn't just "meet" and "shake hands" with terrorists, communists, or Nazis (you lose btw). He worked with, was tutored by, and modeled some of his beliefs on what these whackos said.

Don't worry, you'll get your handout soon enough in the good ol' USSA. Enjoy it. :thumbup1:

*edit I guess Benny lost, not you.

"I would agree with Shh, as in his socialist slant. I don't believe in universal health care, it hasn't worked for other countries and it sure wouldn't work for us. I don't think taxing the people who achieve goals in our county more than the majority of americans who are just plain lazy (I being one of them) is a viable solution. I don't like his background, his nazi pastor, his communist wife and his partner in crime Bill Ayers. Obama has a sketchy past and just for that alone I would not vote for him."

Ok, so give me some examples of Canadas healthcare program to refute my statement. And, its quite similar. O'bamas plan is something to the lines as this, all poor people who can't afford insurance will be given medical treatment (somewhat like the pro bono for lawyers).

Defining middle class as lazy sure I did, and still believe it. How many poor and middle class play the lottery? Is that not a lazy method of making money? How about those of us suckered into buying something without reading the fine print on those looooonnnnnggggg papers that are standing in our way of having a nice car and/or not? Lazy...sure we are...when was the last time you read the "Terms and Conditions" when buying a microsoft product online? Lazy sure....so get off bud.

and btw, I still dislike Obamas wife too!

This says different, and if this link alone doesn't end the whoe debate war then nothing will. Imagine that, a republican himself and first secretary of state Colin Powell endorses Democrat Barak Obama. If that doesn't wake you sleep walkers up, then nothing will. I think after this that this thread and election is officialy over. *smiles*
