What’s wrong with you guys? Some mormons you are. I guess you’re all entitled to your opinions but this is just stupid. I don’t appreciate you guys bringing down someone just because they have a different opinion. By the way… It is a choice. As a mormon you should know that. Better yet you should know that politics aren’t that super duper important anyways. It’s not like we’re living in some dictatorship and you can’t get rid of the leader. Respect others and their opinions. I’m a 16 year old and I have better manners and values than you. Wow.

At first I didn’t know what you did either, LOL. Then I read my post and realized I was telling you to shut up, in advance, about my “skewed, as usual”, logic, because I figured you’d have some smart alecky comment about my logic. Or lack thereof. I’m glad you didn’t.

Quueno, shut up.

I’m not sure what I said in this thread to deserve that, but … thank you but no, I won’t.

Well, ARJ, you know……he has a point.

Guys, I’m studying what Obama SAYS he believes and will attempt to do. I like it. Do I buy it? No. I believe politicians will say what they think people want to hear. We only really find out what they believe after they’re in office. That’s why I look for the person I believe to be a good person. McGovern was a good person.

Oh, I contradict myself. Jimmy Carter was a good person. Stupid, but good.

Well, try to follow me. My logic is skewed. as usual. Queno, shut up.

sorry for the abbreviations:

JSM3 = john sidney mccain III
BHO = barack hussein obama

you have good instincts on biden. although the typical account of his bungled ‘88 campaign is that he merely ‘plagiarized’ part of his stump speech, the truth is that he actually lifted Neil Kinnock’s life story and pretended it was his own. see this article in the normally left-leaning Slate for the painful play-by-play: http://www.slate.com/id/2198543/. he is as fake as his hair plugs. and his wisecrack about his wife’s doctorate was, well…were he a republican the msm would’ve jumped all over it.

interesting point made today that Romney could push colorado more decisively into the red b/c 2% of citizens in that state are LDS. that plus Michigan could lead JSM3 to hold his nose and go for it…

Post Title: Apologetics of Obama.

Billy (37)

One thing I’m sure of, neither Obama nor McCain are ideologues (although I used to think Obama was). They’re both pragmatic guys who have our nation’s best interests at heart.

100% agree.

I think it was a horrible attack. He just insinuated that Utah, the most LDS of all states, is populated by idiots.

I just discovered something. If you name a drug in your post, it will go right to spam.

Guy, ya think? How surprisingly non-attacking of my religion that comment was. Who are you and what have you done with Guy?

Seth, if you like ambiguity, McCain’s your man.

Kodos, Clinton did more harm than good. Morals and integrity are important, crucial. We’ll probably never be able to gauge the harmful effects of his behavior. Plus I think we can all thank him when China takes over the US.

Eric, the Daily Spectrum in Cedar/St. George. Like I said, I don’t think it was well done, sort of thrown together. Still reflected my opinion.

Dan, LOL, yeah that’s me trying to get a rise out of the old farts in Sunday School. That actually didn’t happen, but it certainly could have. Off the subject, but, being a Libra, I’ll usually take the opposite opinion of whoever annoys me the most and argue it to the hilt.

I gotta tell you, though, if we’re voting based on wives, Obama gets my vote. I stand by my assertion that if he ever cheated on her, she’d shoot him.

Delaware, you know……I frankly thought your post was some kind of tylenol (or Viagra) ad. I’m still not sure it isn’t a joke. I’ve never heard of all those people. who are all those initials? or drugs? If McCain picks Romney, my decision will become harder. Because I don’t like Biden, I (now) like Romney. I don’t recall an election where the VP choice was so important to me. I do not want Joe Biden for president, ever.

One thing I think about politics, or life, is that things compensate. We’ve had one way for 8 years, we’ll compensate and reach a middle ground temporarily. Change is a constant (which I hate, hate, hate).
