The world has turned upside down!!! (Re: McCain vs. Obama for President)

After my sister received a BS in metallurgical engineering from New Mexico Tech she applied to several universities for grad school. Two, Northwestern and UC Davis sent her an application for international students.But I suppose she has the last laugh as she has been a project leader at Los Alamos National Laboratories since the 80s.Keep up the good fight Rrhain, I'm rapidly getting burned out on the abject stupidity of some people who post here.

So by the same logic Ayann Hirsi Ali is still a Muslim since she has no choice either according to the Buzsaw hypothesis. Did either choose their parents? As you have clearly stated your hatred for both, which do you consider worse? Muslim or Catholic? So you are implying he is the Manchurian Candidate? Or do you think he had his face plasticized like in the second episode of the original Outer Limits? You must have quite the active fantasy life. Malcolm X is an admirable figure who had the courage to speak the truth about injustice. Can you provide us one example of anything he said that was not true at the time? According to Bob Altemeyer in The Authoritarians, 42 percent of all evangelicals and fundamentalists believe they can justify lying, cheating, stealing, murder, rape, incest, indeed even cannibalism because they have been 'saved' according to what Dietrich Bonhoeffer calls cheap grace in The Cost of Discipleship. So what is the difference between those evangelical/fundamentalists and the suicide bomber of children when it comes to a moral code? How could anyone possibly do more for terrorism than the current US administration has already done? Perhaps you are looking in the wrong place for that Manchurian candidate. The last time you 'knew' something to be true you stated the Pope essentially ruled all the world's leaders for 200 years. All can see your ego will not allow you to retract this absurd statement no matter what the facts are. Actually, I don't think you are intentionally lying, I just think you can convince yourself of the truth of anything you say because you have so much of a problem admitting when you are wrong. That and the anger/hate problem you show toward anyone who is in the least different indicates to me you never either read or understood the Sermon on the Mount. I personally ascribe this to a huge ego and that RWA personality.Hope heaven is big enough for you and any other occupants.

I must agree. Back when McCain was against the religious fanatics, the incompetent military strategy, oil and nuclear only energy strategy, and the economics of fiscal irresponsibility to give more tax cuts to the rich, I would have considered him a viable candidate. Now all I see is the continuation of corruption, failed foreign policy, failed domestic policy, the extermination of civil liberties, and most surprisingly the support of torture to pander to the pervert vote.Murdoch's Fox News and the Drudge Report be damned, I want a human for President, not a chunk of silly putty with a mean streak.
