Now that's priceless.

You, BBB, BT, and others all claim to NOT be Republicans, but more independant minded centrists.

And you call McCain "hideous" because he's not in lockstep with the Bushies.

Fucking spare me

I like John McCain.

I've voted for him before and I'd vote for him again in a fuckin' heartbeat.

I call myself an Independent because that's what I consider myself to be. Yes, I do lean to the right on a lot of issues, but certainly not all.

Others stick a label on me and that's OK....I understand that. Issues have a tendancy to inflame people's passion and inflame the situation. Let them call me what they want...moderate, fence-sitter, neo-con, Repuke, what-the-fuck-ever...

I had the privelege to serve in the Armed Forces of the United States of America under both Republican and Democratic Administrations.

Both political parties sent me to God-forbidden places on "missions" I didn't necessarily agree with on short notice for extended periods away from my family. My job was to ensure (this a general summary here, folks) ordnance got to right people at the right time. BOOM. People died. So what. I did this for both sides.

Any way, what I'm saying is there has been too much stupid shit in American politics lately for me to give a damn about R's and D's. It's time people started looking at the person behind the label.

If that means I have to vote for a D, that's what I'll do.

Don't get me wrong, there are certain things that I can never support or never go against in my principles.

I think this country would be a whole lot better off if people would actually study the issues instead of treating elections as some eighth-grade student council election.

With all sincerity, hands down your best post ever.



Delete the "I served", [but I did register] and replace the "have to for a D" with an R, and I would sign that post in a New Yoirk Minute.

We're still waiting for your best post eva, Lounge.

Amazing how one post like that can change your whole view of a person.

Peel away his "I'm gonna push FORD'S buttons" schtick, and he's really not that far from where I think many of us are.

BTW, D,

Luv the new Avatar.

The guy is a genius.

I'm just getting to his chapter in Ben Fong Torres new book.

Please. You two will be on his ass within a matter of days...or hours, about something he's said that you don't agree with.

You only love what he says when he starts to veer off towards moderate territory, and says he MIGHT vote for a Democrat.

True.

I expect that.

Remember...I said I leaned to the right on most issues...especially defense and the Iraq War. That seems mainly what we "debate" about here on this board.

It should be remembered that sometimes I also like to provoke others into argument. :D

Clever man, that BBB is.
