Fuck 'em. Let them get another 4 years of Bush policies. Good luck with it. Another dumb ass President who is not concerned with the issues at hand. I will actually get pleasure in watching red state America go down the drain. Soon it will not even be worth looking down as we fly over it.

Except they tend to be the ones hardest hit by Republican Policies. Yet they keep voting Republican. They're the abused women of the electoral college saying, "He's a good guy, really he is. We just need to support him and maybe this time it will be better."

They really need to hurry up and get to the first debate. That'll clear the air of the Palin stuff since she'll be a spectator just like the rest of America. Until the VP Debate. Biden is going to eat her alive.

Edit: I honestly don't even know what you're trying to argue. That Obama's campaign has been about the issues because Obama never said it wasn't? That's fucking dumb as I'm sure you realize.

I got an itchy feeling inside me that their might not be any debates. Are the debates required or just optional?

I see now. You're one of those people that looks for reasons to be offended. It must be frustrating to go through life like that.

yeah, you, Dean, and Pelosi can sit around and cackle about how much better you are than everyone else while you keep losing with better candidates. someday the light may come on and you'll realize that it's because the GOP are better at politics (i.e. getting elected).

These are generalizations based on other generalizations.

Two can play at this.

The Dems only care about sending tons of money into inner cities and dense urban areas and only for things that matter to them.

Their socialized programs actually hurt most of the people you think they help, due to the nice simple fact anytime Government controls markets they botch it up and certainly don't equally distribute funds between large citites, rampant with fraud and corruption and smaller, rural areas. Especially with their bureaucratic chunk of the pie.

Keep believing the dream that taxing the bejesus out of business and corporate America will help the average American. If the Dems control the WH and have a supermajority in congress, I can see the next great depression arriving soon. No worries for the Dems, their friends the lawyers will be able to sue the few remaining companies into bankruptcy and then they'll get the pure socialist environment here. Too bad most of America will be down to a second world standard of living by then.

The issue is not taxing the bejesus out of business. It is indeed a different philosophy. It is a bottom up philosophy vs. a trickle down philosophy. The theory is that the middle class, who contribute the most and drive the economy, will provide the same net income to the top earners even after they pay their fair share. Why didn't Bush send his stimulus checks only to the very wealthy as John McCain has defined them to be; those who make over 5 million? He didn't because the middle class drive the economy. The issue is the extremely wealthy paying their fair share of the National debt (ticking below), not more and not less:





The Gross National Debt



You can directly relate the poverty rate to red state America and Republican voting patterns.

Wait.... the Republicans took a booming American economy and drove it straight into RECESSION and you think the Democrats will ruin our economy?

This is like the movie groundhog day watching a train wreck over and over again. Go ahead and keep voting Republican - I am developing a morbid curiosity to see just how much damage Republican's can do. We may be looking at a full 16 years of uninterrupted republican rule here and I am curious to see if the country can survive it. You are voting for a future with:
  • Abortion becoming illegal
  • Creationism taught in schools
  • A repeal or lack of judicial recognition of civil rights and civil liberties
  • Unfettered corporate dominance over American workers with no regulation or restrictions on outsourcing American jobs
  • A continued reliance on fossil fuels with no real government incentive to break our dependence of foreign oil
  • Higher taxes for the middle class and low income Americans
  • Privatization of social support services
  • Expansionist foreign policy without any attempt at arms control and a renewed Cold War

If the majority of American's truly want to see this reality then go out and vote Republican. We are a democracy and those are the rules. However, I do not think that red state America truly understands the consequences that will occur from this. If the majority of U.S. voters want to take the country back to the dark ages - so be it - but get ready for the blowback.

I honestly don't understand this picture at all. It ignores the most dense places in the united states? Why the fuck would you throw-out so much important data?!?!

Allow me to provide an equal, but opposite perspective.

If you don't vote McCain, Jesus will return and kill you.

Also, 9/11.

On the other hand if McCain loses and Jesus doesn't show up, is that proof that God doesn't exist?
