He told you what his relationship with Ayers was in the 3rd debate. You weren't listening.

It boils down to intelligence for me, not political parties. We tried the whole "Joe-sixpack, guy we'd like to have a beer with" President for 8 years. Like I said before, the McCain of 2000 was great. I wish I knew why he sold his soul to Karl Rove. Barack is a pretty smart guy. You don't get to be editor, then president, of the Harvard Law Review without being a pretty bright person. Nevermind graduating magna cum laude. If you think that's elitist, well, good. I love the people who claim elitism as a negative quality. If there is one thing the President needs to be, it damn well better be elite. Best of the best? Hell yes that's who I want running the country. People go off course with the elitist thing because they confuse or manipulate the meaning. There is elitism with inflated egos and looking down upon the common man. Then there are people who are just generally very bright, intelligent people. People who really are just flat out smarter than most. To me, Barack is the latter. It is certainly true that Obama doesn't have the experience that McCain has. What gives me comfort is that I know Obama is smart enough to surround himself with exceptional people who would be more informed on certain topics than he is. People with valuable opinions that he'll listen to and learn from. I'm pretty confident there would never be any Alberto Gonzalez or Harriet Miers or "heck of job" Brownie's in an Obama administration. Intelligence and open-mindedness. That's what I'm voting for. I'm certainly not saying McCain is a dimwit. But after listening to and watching these guys for the last year, I feel like Obama is the smarter, more together guy. Also, to get back to the original topic of this thread, I have to question the intelligence of ANYONE that would choose a person such as Palin as a running mate. This woman is not an exceptional person and not the kind of person we need running the country. Im NOT saying she is a bad person. She is certainly a likable person with a great personality. I suspect this is the main reason some people like her.

Factcheck.org also shot this down a while back after examining the *actual* document and speaking with health dept officials in Hawaii. http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html

The evidence is not overwhelming and it is not big issue. It's bull$h!. The lawsuit you refer to was thrown out because the judge said the claims were "frivolous and not worthy of discussion. http://www.philly.com/dailynews/local/2008...rom_ballot.html

Exactly.

Wanna stop by my aunt's house? She just bought it...you could help her move in.

Oh....don't doubt it. Though you may see some switch to Lambda eventually.

Oh now we all know that isn't true.

McCain may just have sealed his loss with that crotchety display.

Your mom should see the movie Saved!

Damn. For my next "convert" I get a free set of Blizzaks.

Well Drew and I would be happy to meet with you and discuss that.

Hey I know....both of you shut the f@#k up and drop it!

For the base V6: http://www.leftlanenews.com/chevrolet-camaro.html And the SS: http://www.leftlanenews.com/chevrolet-camaro-ss-2010.html

You drove one bad classic Mini. Now go drive a good one. Well kept classic Mini's are not as you describe.

Because anyone with even half a brain knows it's not something that needs a cure.

Thanks. Mine has 3.2L V6. Your neighbor probably has the S5 with the 4.2L V8. Might have a miltek exhaust too or something along those lines.

Boy this one sure got out of control quickly. The 1 week plant shut down was planned.

Um...it's pretty simple. The campaign has paid to have that channel as an advertising outlet. It has nothing to do with equal access or Dish Network endorsing anyone. McCain could easily do the same thing.

Well you could constantly PM him.

Mr. Wolfe needs some *encouragement* Me: oh...on a totally unrelated note Me: are you registered to vote?

Me: no Me: you can do it monday Cory: and yay, i work again Cory: haha Cory: though im not sure what time Cory: didnt get a good look at next weeks sched Me: im sure they would let you off work for a bit if you tell them why you need the time Me: dont be the typical apathetic teenager :-P Cory: haha, well... i really havent been following it all anyways Me: none the less

The reader's digest verion is that Sarah Palin comes across better for the first 30-40 mins with her folksy "dern right" speak. After the folksy BS stops working in the latter half, Biden buries her.

She just gave a "shout out" to 3rd graders.
