John McCain, of course, approved this message. LOL

Strange bed fellows. But the democratic powers that be were smart. At least have a vp who is respected and capable of running the country.

HELEN–I wish I knew how quickly the McCain campaign had distributed that ad. A brilliant move.
DEAN, there is no question that Mr. Biden has much foreign policy experience…and certainly, Mr. Obama needs that.
Respect, however, may be a problem. Consider these observations that I brought over from Sean Hannity’s site:
Quote:
Biden is a gaffe machine. He ran for president 20 years ago but had to abandon his campaign when it was discovered that he had plagiarized speeches from a British politician, substituting in key details to make the story his own.
Quote:
he mused about Illinois Sen. Obama: “I mean, you got the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.”
Quote:
“you cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.”

Quote:
” Mr. Biden looked at his questioner and said: ”I think I have a much higher I.Q. than you do.”
Quote:
”went to law school on a full academic scholarship – the only one in my class to have a full academic scholarship,”………”ended up in the top half” of his class and won a prize in an international moot court competition…………. ”the outstanding student in the political science department” and ”graduated with three degrees from college.”
(actually) ……….graduated 76th in a class of 85, acknowledged: ”I did not graduate in the top half of my class at law school and my recollection of this was inacurate.”

I stand corrected.

Dean, I’m not saying that Senator Biden is undeserving of some respect for the work he has done. While I’m not excusing his exaggerations and false statements, people do sometimes honestly misspeak themselves.
Having said that, I think it is fair to analyze what all the candidates have said…and are saying.
Wouldn’t you hate to have every word you say analyzed by the public?

“Wouldn’t you hate to have every word you say analyzed by the public?”
Or even written on blogs? LOL
Politics makes fools of us all.

Helen, I’m sure it’s impossible, but wouldn’t it be nice if we could select our leaders without everything becoming so “political.”
I know that is a contradiction in terms, but I wish we were capable of voting without considering race, gender, economic status, or even political party…except that the parties of course, have certain preset “planks,” so it’s hard to ignore.
Complicated, isn’t it. One thing we Christians can pray for is that God directs us into selecting the best person for our country. That gets funny, too, though, for without a doubt, some Christians will feel led to vote for Senator Obama; others for Senator McCain.
Figure it out, please.

I don’t wish we’d ignore race and gender; Christianity has already done that, although it’s supposed to be otherwise.

Shirley, Biden may turn out to be the foot-in-mouth veep. We’ve had those often enough, why break a strong tradition? Hee hee.
I love this video. Thanks for posting it; it made me laugh.
I do not believe he will be our veep. Hope not.

Voter Prejudices, Voter Stupidity | Freedom // September 9, 2008 at 5:23 pm
[...] Prejudice is not what this country’s future should be built on. The ability and opportunity to use and encourage the individual intellectual, emotional and leadership strengths of everyone in this country will make us a better place to live in, while contributing to our strength and continued leadership of the free world. I was saddened that people still have the brazenness to make such horrible, irrational and prejudiced statements. Yes, I am voting against Senator Obama becoming our next President, but anyone who has ever read my blog can attest to the fact that my opposition is merely based on the Senator’s past performance and the lack of experience his own vice-presidential choice, Senator Biden, has already alluded to.

Obama desperately needs Biden because Obama doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing.
And, if Biden doesn’t think Obama’s ready to be President, then why should I?
McCain / Palin all the way.

Not only did Biden say Obama was not qualified so did Hillary Clinton. So that makes both of them liars then or now.
