Yup good reason to vote for him. Numpty

He didnt say he wanted Obama to win. Just that he thought he would and what a side benifit of that win would be.
a side benifit I happen to agree with.

No more cop outs of "because I'm black"
That same old lame excuse will no longer be valid.

I dont want either candidate in. Buit It is more then likely that Obama will be Barring a major turnaround in the economy between now and November.

So in the event he does.
When life issues you a Lemon.
Make Lemonaid

Its not a reason to vote for him anymore then Mccain having been a POW 40 years ago is a reason to vote for him.

It would however  be a way of looking on the bright side

The comment "obama will win" was based on the dynamics and attitude of the citizens 2-3 weeks ago, not my gut feelings.

It's what you said afterward that clues anyone paying attention what your motives are.

I'm still on the sidelines just like everyone else.  I will wait for the debate to start.  Like I said before whoever comes out on top on the debate will have my vote (based on sound plans, no BS) .

How bout you?

Brazil did it. Sounds like a decent goal to strive for. Are you guys saying you are FOR dependence on foreign oil?

LOL havent you figured it out yet.

The Obama paranoia around here has brought about the "If your not for us, your against us" mentality.
There is no inbetween.

Speak the truth,Or see the truth for what it is. And if its not Purely Anti Obama. Your an Obama lover

The one thing you cant be. Is unbias

If I am president, I will immediately direct the full resources of the federal government and the full energy of the private sector to a single, overarching goal –- in 10 years, we will eliminate the need for oil from the entire Middle East and Venezuela," Barack Obama just said during an address he's giving in Lansing, Michigan.

The "full resources" and "full energy" except that he won't allow off shore drilling, won't allow drilling in ANWR, won't allow new nuke powerplants, will raise taxes on the oil companies that will immediately passed on to the consumer, etc., etc., etc.

A shiny bauble really distracts some of you, doesn't it?

[shakey6]

your bauble is blinding, Toad.

Oh, and the threat of the Obamessiah to the 2nd is not what he'll try to push through Congress.

The threat is that he will put extremely liberal judges on the SC and your rights will be abrogated from the bench. Think judges more liberal than John Paul Stevens. Not just the 2nd either. Recall that in two recent cases, Kelo v New London (eminent domain) and Gonzales v. Raich (medical marijuana) individuals lost rights and government powers expanded. In BOTH of those cases, the Liberal judges of the court provided the majority.

Now you can lose the nice house on the beach your great grandfather built because the City Council can decide that they'd get more taxes from having a developer put a McDonald's there.

Now, even though your state passes a medical marijuana law allowing use with a prescription, the Feds can still arrest you.

Go ahead, vote against individual freedom and rights; vote the Obamessiah. You'll get what you deserve.

Will that be the debates where they get the questions beforehand?

Maybe they are against empty promises and plans that aren't realistic, no matter how wonderful they sound?  Maybe they actually don't want a candidate who will tax the working citizens to the point they can't exist anymore?

some of us have seen many promises before that never even came close to coming to light. some of the candidates in history have been known to say these things with no real intention of making them reality. We are all for being freeing ourselves from foreign oil but so far as I can tell he has not done anything to "rock the boat" and I don't see any reason to believe he will once voted into office. When I speak of "rocking the boat" I am speaking of following the rest of the party. When I vote I will be looking for someone that I think will be an independent thinker and not worry about what the party wants. Of course I am not sure that McCain is one of those either.

Man I would love for an independent candidate to run.

I don't care much about the global warming reasons why this should be done, but If he can reduce our dependency on Middle East oil and Venezuela as promised he's got my vote.   

 

you're joking, right?


remember what was being put forth in the other forums?

his camp thinks this is what people want to hear, so he says it. he won't do a dam thing about it though.

Sorry for the hijack, but in a perfect world, nobody would have guns, and since nobody had guns, nobody else would need guns.  However this is not a perfect world (duh).  In England, all handguns are totally illegal, and the vast majority of firearms are strictly controlled (as far as I know).  Whilst people still do have guns illegally in this country, far fewer people overall have guns, and as a result, there are far fewer instances of gun crime here than there are in the USA.  I'm sure that the relative populations of these countries factors into this, but I doubt it does so too much.

There's no such thing as a perfect world then. The Soviets made it to where nobody could have guns, [sarcastically] IT WAS GREAT!! [/sarcastically]
