Warren Buffet is bear (know what that means?) He buys on panic and sells on hope. He is in for the long term. He knows that there will plenty of action for him under an Obama adminstration. Obama’s policies will result in many buying opportunities.

You want to know what Buffet thinks about Democrats? He opposes ending the inheritance tax while at the same time sheltering his fortune from the death tax. Buffett wants to make sure that nobody else can get rich. That’s why he supports Democrats.

You have just demostrated your subnormal intelligence.

Remember Senator Joe Biden says that Obama is not qualified to be President.

You’re speaking for most of us now? I was pulling for Palin before McCain did and I stand by my earlier conviction. Where does a former mayor turned Governor and CIC of Alaskas military look weak? Her government has a huge surplus of funds. She has a 80% approval rating for God’s sakes. NO ONE ELSE IN THE COUNTRY IS ANTWHERE CLOSE TO THAT. No one can claim anywhere near the accomplishments she has. Name one. Anyone.

I have a term for those that are too blind to see the genius of Sarah. FOOLS.

She’s more qualified to be President than Obama in every conceivable way. INCLUDING community organizing. Which is his only real accomplisment. One at which he failed at. One just has to take a quick and superficial glance at Chicago to see where Obama failed his constituents.

Your response is nothing new. I remember your shilling for her. And if you’d be honest, you’d admit that MOST of us opposed her.

This isn’t about Obama’s qualifications. It is about what was available to John and what he chose. Just go take a look at how Alaska ranks in issues verses other states. Between 45th and 50th on almost every issue. GSP, population, etc. What Sarah has done is almost NOTHING compared to other choices John could have made. Romney is ten times more qualified than Palin and is arguable more qualified than McCain in many areas. This is the reason McCain chose Palin. Even though she is a conservative, a former mayor, a governor, has experience in energy, has energized the base and fights corruption, she is way less qualified than McCain. He had to have a candidate that was less qualified than he is or else he is weakened.

That is what happens when we chose the weakest candidate to be our nominee. His choices for a running mate must be weaker than he is.

You worship Palin, we get it. But your view isn’t the only view and much of your view plays into the view that McCain is erratic, as the left portray him, and poor in judgment as the right portray him.

Having said that, and before you submit a vitriolic comment, McCain/Palin is what we have and I support them 100%. But I don’t believe for one second that this was the best we could muster.

Bottom line: Anybody who thinks Barak Obama is more qualified to President then Sarah Palin is qualified to be Vice President is either grossly misinformed and/or of subnormal intelligence.

And that’s why Warren Buffet is both misinformed and has subnormal intelligence. Buffet fails to grasp the consequences of Obama’s fiscal proposals on the income statements and balance sheets of the companies in his portfolio. But you know more than Buffet does. Right, great point.

most of us understood that her bona fides were very weak and would be an issue running with a guy who is 76 years old.

I know you want to gloat on your apparent victory. I am sure Tom Dewey in 1948 felt the same way as you do. However, since Il Duce is not yet leading the country I will still ridicule you at every opportunity.

Joe Biden told us to today that Obama is not ready for the job. If Joe Biden, foreign policy guru, says he not ready then Obama is not qualified to President.

So what was ol’ Joe telling us? Well, he may have figured out that that Obama is too inexperienced and too radical to be President and was doing what he could to help McCain win the election or he is so stupid that he can’t keep his mouth shut.

Bottom line: Anybody who thinks Barak Obama is more qualified to President then Sarah Palin is qualified to be Vice President is either grossly misinformed and/or of subnormal intelligence. As far as you are concerned, it is definate;ly the latter and not the former.

Especially in Florida. Via Florida…….

Let’s roll.

You are speaking for “most”? Were you even around when she was first mentioned? There were a few rabid fans, but most of us understood that her bona fides were very weak and would be an issue running with a guy who is 76 years old.

and most of us had issues with Palin.

I have ZERO “issues” with Palin.

She is magnificent.

“I’m sure she’s very bright,” he added. “But so is the Butterworth woman.

and most of us had issues with Palin.

I have ZERO “issues” with Palin.

She is magnificent.

Let’s roll.

As Richard Lugar has said, refusing to talk with your enemies can be irresponsible and even dangerous. Dialogue isn’t about sharing pleasantries over tea, as many on the right assume. When confronting an enemy, ‘talking’ means:
- laying out in clear terms what behavior is considered unacceptable to the USA
- describing the consequences the enemy can expect if its behavior continues without change
- explaining how the opponent can benefit if it changes its behavior

Why is this type of dialogue, recommended by statesmen like James Baker and Henry Kissinger, so frightening to right wing nuts? Don’t you understand how diplomacy works?

Under Bush, refusing to talk has been a total failure. In practice, our opponents have found that directly threatening our vital interests is the best way to handle the ‘silent’ treatment. In other words, it has encouraged our enemies to pursue the very policies that the USA has sought to discourage. Iran and N. Korea both brought the USA to the negotiating table by expanding anti-American policies. After being snubbed over Kosovo and NATO missiles, Russia sent its troops streaming into our ally Georgia’s territory.

Under Bush, our enemies have learned that the best way to gain negotiating leverage is by going for the American jugular in various parts of the world. In N. Korea, Iran, and Russia either completely or partially ignoring our opponents or competitors had no positive effect. It simply hasn’t worked, as Baker, Kissinger, and others will point out.

Ken Adelman to vote for Obama:

starfleet_dude on October 20, 2008 at 4:39 PM

Who did he support during the nomination process?

Huckabee’s bigotry toward Romney gave us McCain. Did he do anything to give us someone other than a RINO with a record of fighting against his own party?

We all had issues with McCain and most of us had issues with Palin.

When the discussion of VP picks started last summer and Palin was a favorite among many, I disagreed because I felt she would be a poor choice of any candidate because of her lack of experience and she comes from a very small state that lacks diversity because it is dominated by one industry.

I was totally opposed to McCain because of his self righteous attitude and being out of touch. The day that he stood for photo’s with the truthers, I called his national office and had to explain to them who the truthers were and that John better get as far from them as possible. His lead guy had to go to the truthers website that I gave him just to get up to speed on their lunacy. It goes without saying that I opposed his work with campaign finance reform and the immigration plan. And on top of that, I don’t like senators as presidents.

But, the base was split by Huckabigot and his quest for the VP slot, and to simply deny a Mormon the opportunity.

So, now we are stuck with McCain. Palin has excited me and the base, and I don’t see her pick as a reason to question McCain’s judgment. He had to pick her to bolster his weak bona fides as a conservative AND most people wouldn’t think she should be at the top of the ticket. John solidified that perception by the way she was mishandled in the initial weeks after her selection.

This is why IF McCain loses, which I do not think he will, we will CRUCIFY HIM until he leaves office.

Because McCain wont go all out, this rests in others hands and not McCain’s. Obama/Biden need to screw up, a national security issue must arise, or the 527′s need to attack Wright etc.

Exit question: If you had millions to spend on a 527 ad, and you can see that John isn’t availing himself of the tools he has to defeat Obama, would you throw your money away, or would you spend it on serious candidates in 2010?

First Colin Powell, Now…

If Adelman’s more concerned about McCain’s temperment than he is worried about Obama’s experience, it’s speaks volumes.

Chin up, Patrick. Nov 4 will belong to McCain.

Get this on the Florida airwaves now.

Along with a commercial quoting Fidel Castro’s comments about how Obama is the “superior” candidate, and a reminder that Obama has “won” the official endorsement of the Communist Party, USA.

Obama wants to “change” the USA — everything that made us into the strongest, richest, most powerful nation in the world — and turn us into a Socialist, third-world, banana republic.
