America is already up Shiite creek without an Evinrude...
Edited on Sat May-10-08 07:34 AM by Hubert Flottz
We've had plenty of RUDE, but we are running out of CRUDE...oil that is.(or at least that's what Bush/Exxon wants us to believe)

The GOP's nominee sees nothing much that he'd change about the way W has been running the country into the ground for eight long years.

How did John's bus driver dodge all those Pot-holes in the roads all over our country? John hasn't noticed the country's infrastructure is quickly crumbling and falling apart at the seams.

John's idea of how to "FIX" things, is the same as the last republican dummy's idea...more tax cuts for the wealthy...more war for the troops...more spying on you and me...more government intrusion into every facet of our private lives...more lies and cover-ups...more of the same old hard right wing stupidity.

Is our voters learning?

This has been my, Swat For The Day...

1. How many creeks are deep enough for an outboard motor to be useful?

2. I'd say "paddle" as an outboard motor is bound to sling "Shiite" all over the place...
You sure "Shiite" is not a double-typo or something?

3. I'm voting for Obama, there was nothing for me to learn about the Republicans

I cannot fathom how Bush 43 got elected once, much less twice. What kept his butt from being impeached after starting the illegal war in Iraq anyway?

And a largely indifferent, depoliticized, brainwashed populace.

6. Maybe this election cycle the populace will wake up
Obama has the chance to come in with fresh ideas and bring back the disillusioned people living in the doldrums. I am voting for Obama to rid our country of this republican malaise and put us back on a liberal track like we should be.

9. Maybe..I'm highly skeptical, but maybe. I suspect the shadow corporate interests determine many...
... aspects of the course of events in this country and elsewhere. The election jazz is largely a show maintained to feed the illusion that the public actually has a substantial hand in determining anything ... aside from revealing how uninformed/disinformed they are. In other words, if a candidate is "electable," then there's already been a comprehensive, tailored, behind the scenes/under the table understanding of just who that candidate answers to, and it ain't We The People.

illegal war in Iraq anyway?

Impeachment was "off the table!" And it makes me wonder, just what's been going on UNDER THE TABLE? The dems knew that not a single GOPer would support impeachment of the Criminal in Chief, even though guys like "Maverick" McCain knew Bush was WRONG.(need 60 votes to impeach) The dems knew that not a single republican in congress could be counted upon to do the RIGHT THING.

McCain has voted for about everything Bush wanted to ram rod through congress and then Johnny hugged and kissed Bush to boot.

The democrats can't do much to stop Bush without enough votes in either the House of the Senate to stop the madness. John has voted for Bush's crap even when he KNEW it was dead wrong. John chose to support Bush instead of to keep his hollow promises he made to America when he was sworn in to office. I see zero reason to believe that McCain would ever choose to do the right things for the country, over his own self interest...(sound like anyone else you know of?) Patriotism(doing your very best for the GOOD OF THE COUNTRY) and truth, are things that don't mean squat to the GOP, IMHO.

10. The bigger question to that is, why and how so many complicit in the cover ups?
The establishment entire fulfilled its role on that, plus a very long, dark list of Bushco cover ups and scandals.

11. McCain wants to sweep it all under the rug and forget it. Move On!
He craves Bush's "SWEEPING NEW" power. I don't think Johnny is any smarter or any more capable than the mess maker in chief.

People didn't wake up in 2004...
