Folks, this i one of those bumps in society.

kennedy killed..bump. mlk made his speech..bump.
vietnam..bump. 911..bump. john edwards hairdo...

Let OBAMARAMA begin!! lol

History has already been made --- win or lose.

Obama Poised to Make History

Doesn't McCain make history by being the oldest to lead a major party's ticket for president of the United States? Why is the MSM not highlighting that fact? Because its the "Liberal Media" that's why.

Fuck Obama... He's a milkweed puppet for the man.

WOW someone forgot to take their metamucil.

Larry

Hey, it could be worse... a HERSTORY making event.

How can blacks blame "The Man" for anything if Obama is elected?

"It's just the Man keeping us d...oh, wait."

An articulate, intelligent African-American will speak.

Can we finally listen?
Let us hope.

Be Well.

Something just dawned on Me. It happens on occasion. The appropriateness of the columns at the Mile High Stadium. MLK Jr's speech was held at the Lincoln Memorial 45 Years ago today. Doesn't the Lincoln Memorial have columns?? What better way for Obama to have as a backdrop to His acceptance speech than columns like those at the Lincoln Memorial

You forgot "clean", Skip.

I think Obama is being set up for assassination. They put Biden in as his replacement. The biggest fake liberal NEOCON on the block.

"Doesn't McCain make history by being the oldest to lead a major party's ticket for president of the United States? Why is the MSM not highlighting that fact? Because its the "Liberal Media" that's why."

Being the oldest isn't that big of a story, more of a footnote and a concern to tell the truth.

The first black major candidate is a much bigger deal.

Media bias isn't the point here.

Either that or they will pull a Bill Clinton/Monica type scenerio after he is elected, and spend 50 million in tax dollars on a farse show trial, and impeachment.
I can already see Joey B. making his pardon speech, reminiscent of Gerald Ford and Nixon.

"Liberal Media"?
If it was the liberal media, wouldn't they want to point out McCain's old age to discredit him?

Just tuned into C-Span, the weather looks perfect.

Guess Dobson's prayers for a monsoon went unanswered.

Does that mean God hates right wingers? Or does he just love the left more?

god help us if this empty suit gets elected.

You mean that librul media?

Got any new conspiracy theories for us, Jeff?

So when is the boy king supposed to "make history" and accept the nomination?

Just listened to the first speech at Obamarama

How many ways can you spell "b o r i n g"???

I'll wait until later.

Hey, is Springsteen going to play tonight?
Any good groups scheduled to play?

Oh, and I just heard

So, does he get his sceptre tonight, or does he have to wait until January...

"Either that or they will pull a Bill Clinton/Monica type scenerio after he is elected, and spend 50 million in tax dollars on a farse show trial, and impeachment."

You don't know how Washington works if you believe a sitting President is going to be investigated by his own party.

Reference George W. Bush if needed.

Ra speaks to the subjects

Holy crap, look at all the people!

I heard that Obama's going to "heal" a leper tonight...

...so I guess there's still hope for John Edward's political career.

Well, Farmer John, I'd say if Obama heals a leper he'll get the leper vote. Welcome to the Democratic Party.

...naaah. They're probably talkin' about Biden. He was part of the DNC's "walking dead" before the Obama people pulled his political career out of the dumpster and cleaned it up for this upcoming election.

"Boy King"?

I thought Bush was waiting to attend the Republican Convention?

you think he will talk about Ayers?

I love how he is trying to control the media from playing the commercial on him and Aryes.

Holding my sides with laughter at all the Righty posts in here about the "Messiah" et al...

Hope y'all choke on all that envy.

"All that envy...."

Yes, pretty thick in here tonight.

I won't be watching it. Another low-life political hack treated as a god. Sickening.

Ray, You don't want to hear about the change?

I also read a rumour that they're going to flood the center of Invesco Field tonight and that Obama's going to walk on water to the little island they built in the middle and accept the nomination.

"Hey, is Springsteen going to play tonight?"

He was in Kansas City last Sunday night and he was absofuckinlootly great.

I hear he will come out wearing a robe and a stone tablet in one hand with the changed commandments.

Posted by Farmer_John at 2008-08-28 08:00 PM |

Gawd, that's hillarious, coming from the facist row of the bus.

Sorry Doc, no Springsteen. But it IS fairly likely Obama's going to Kansas City next Sunday night and give some lame speech about his racist grandmother... so if your looking for a cure for insomnia, you should make out pretty good.

Dobson's group "Focus on Family" has been praying for rain on Obama's speech today, though massive prayers were made the weather is beautiful today, God said "Buzz off Dobson", in other news it has been reported that a lightning bolt may have struck Dobson!

80,000 attending Obama's speech today, McCain can't fill tommorrows field so they are busing in people from other areas, he may get 6,000.

"I hear he will come out wearing a robe and a stone tablet in one hand with the changed commandments."

No, that was Charlaton Heston as the NRA convention.

Ray, You don't want to hear about the change?

A politician is a politician is a politician. I'll watch the Jon Stewert version.

Guess Dobson's prayers for a monsoon went unanswered.

No he didn't... it's called "Gustav" and Karl Rove is worried:

"The Republicans cant seem to get a break when it comes to August and when it comes to the weather,-- said Rove, a FOX News analyst. I know this is being thought a lot about in Washington and at the White House and discussed and I suspect they will monitor it carefully and figure out what to do.--"

"80,000 attending Obama's speech today, McCain can't fill tommorrows field so they are busing in people from other areas, he may get 6,000."

We work for a living. Its easy to make the DNC when you don't have a job....

Here's a link to

I'm meeting a friend for dinner, then I have to go to Home Depot and Lowe's. So I'll probably be missing the big speech.

Typical lazy ass GOPiggy, privatizing his/her own responsibility.

So before Obama gives his speech, are there going to be some gladiators come out and fight to the death in honor of the Olympian gods or something?

He'd better do something to honor and entertain the gods, cuz Richardson's just p*ssing them off!

Oh, great, a campaign video... this wasn't shot by Obama's mistress, was it?

"'ll save you some time: he won't. Why do you believe he might?"

grass roots workers showing up to support a political movement are being called fans of a rock star by idiots, at some point the majority of Americans will consider that an insult, get off the mesiah complex or be laughed at! you are insulting real people that are getting involved!

Nice spin, vern, for a guy with his head so firmly up Bush's ass.

I am not the one making the qualifications argument, YOUR side is, so the burden isn't mine. Obama is thoroughly well qualified, as were Abe Lincoln, ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton at their respective times. I didn't vote for the texas twit ... that was your doing. Nice work!

I don't say "McCain sucks too" - I say simply, "McCain sucks". He is a bitter, tired prisoner of the past, whose memory is failing as fast as his principles. His only hope for a win is to energize the worst among us - the types you exemplify with your sophomoric attacks and dilute drivel. He seems to be making every effort to do just that, resorting to the type of campaign guaranteed to drag out the tootless, wife beater-wearing hordes which propelled little W to the office.

I'm sure your knuckles will be dragging along with the rest of the klan. Your side may very well win.

will some please let me know if he spoke about how he sicced his Campaign staff on WGN Radio in an attempt to take away the Freedom of Speech of one of their guests and the Freedom of Press of the station to present whoever they want as guests?

Obama robots were supplied with e-mail scripts by the Obama Campaign with attack points against the guest.
When the WGN host asked any of the callers what the guest said that wasn't true, they couldn't state A SINGLE statement that he made that was not true.

All they did was continue demanding that the person be removed from the show.

Also, did he mention about how his minions had the ABC producer and cameraman who were filming big money people meeting with Democratic Party big wigs FROM A PUBLIC SIDEWALK? They were breaking NO LAWS but were charged with trespassing and disobeying a lawful order (I guess anything detremental to Obama is unlawful to report upon now). I guess THE MESSIAH owns all of Denver's public sidewalks now?

Yes, CHANGE. What a magic word. CHANGE to Chicago Thug Politics where you destroy your opponent any way you can, whether legally or illegally. And exactly how is that a CHANGE from our current administration's violations of the Constitution? Please eddify me on this, I really do want to learn the differance between Republican Gestapo tactics and Democrat Gestapo tactics.

But Biden does bring .04% of the vote with him, so, he has that going for him.

The shade of that lady's blue outfit is not a color found in nature.

None of these last few female speakers are in need food stamps, that's for sure.

BOB: Might have to do with your arm injury, like mine.
JOHN: No, I was a POW.
BOB: Well, whatever our differences we're both MIA.

I wonder if Hussein will name Brother Chavez to the newly created 'Board of News Fairness Doctrine'?

Birds of a feather and what not.

Then Ayers can bomb it.

did the Messiah fly around the stadium on a cloud or just float above the stage in front of Temple Obama?

~SG

The reason RTs harp on Obama's popularity is to distract from the fact that their candidate is deeply unpopular not only amongst Dems and Indy's but within his own party as well.

Obama fills an 80,000 person stadium to SRO, actually turning some folks away.

McCain meanwhile is bribing winos to fill buses to try and get a crowd of 10,000 fer his gig.

Obama aint no Messiah.

He's just really likable.

Inspirational, intelligent, a faithful husband, and a natural leader.

Yes, yes, they're all corporate whores to some degree at that level ya schmuck. The only realistic question is are they totally co-opted or not. John McCain through his flip-flops and about faces has shown exactly wot a meat puppet he is. He's proven himself incapable of leading, his policies are re-cycled BushCo re-writes for the most part. He's a dangerous, war mongering tool of the worst elements of the MIC and the religious right.

Barack Obama is different.

Not as co-opted.

Not as beholden.

The experience argument from the start has been a deflection from the fact that McCain's too old, too bent, too angry and too steeped in the ways of FAIL. That too much time in DC may be ultimately more dangerous than too little. As proven by Cheney and Rumsfeld and the other BushCo Nixon refugees.

I hope Obama's speech isn't just more platitudes, pie in the sky, and more crap about "hope, change, hope, change."

Hell, even the debates are devoid of specific policy answers. You're expecting different from a convention? "pie in the sky" and "my opponent sucks" are all these guys(red or dem) do nowadays. I blame the media for making it all about soundbites over substance.

"I don't mean to be unkind to Michelle Obama..."

'Evening, sweetie. lol

"Bush is a moot point now."

McCain wants to continue Bush's tax cuts for the wealthiest, Bush's views on torture, and Bush's plan to privatize Social Security. Maverick McCain used to be against all these. Candidate McCain is Bush 44.

Sorry about that....bar rag....be back in a few.
Sincerely, AU (performing at Slippery's Tavern).

So Obama was only with Bush 50% of the time but only the Senate for 140 days of voting--think of what the percentage would be if he'd been there for the last 8 years?

Be careful when quoting people who are no longer with the campaign.

"-think of what the percentage would be if he'd been there for the last 8 years?"

Don't understand the definition of "percentage", do you?

Hit McCain. Hit him hard.

Man, conventions suck. They are just big sales meetings.

Our side rocks! The other side sucks! Our side is going to kick the other side's butt!

Misrepresenting McCain policy proposals..

Obama doesn't get it--doesnt get elected POTUS either....

This is wonderful. I got back earlier than I thought, and I'll be able to see the greatest political event of the last thousand years.

Good thing it's in Mile High Stadium. I was just thinking a few weeks ago how impossible it would be to cram Obama's aura into an arena that can only hold 20,000 people.

This is much better, a big venue, outdoors. The eagles soaring overhead, the beasts of the field, can hear his voice, and rejoice. Like the rest of us.

STFU Barak and talk about YOU!!!!

He's minutes into this and he can't SHUT UP about McCain.

Seriously, WHO's advising him!!!

I don't need any talking points. I have ears and eyes of my own and a brain to formulate my own opinions about what I see and hear. I like many of Obama's proposals. I also heard what Obama said about his Grandmother while praising the sleezy Reverend Wright and I didn't need Rush or Hannity to tell me what impression it was suppose to make. I'm no right wing lemming. But Obama is human and you Obamafanatics grovel to the point of making regular people puke. Obama is a human being and a regular guy. Obama has done some very good things and he has also made some mistakes. When you try to make Obama omnipotent you look ridiculous. Don't worry, I'm not voting for McCain.

This is NOT his best speech. The two or three he gave to clarify and re-clarify his positions on race, religion and Wright were much better. Even though he really didn't clarify much in the end.

McCain is in trouble.

Terrific speech tonight. Best I've heard Obama give so far and he nailed point after point.
He'll probably go up a few points in the polls with people after tonight.

Saying McCain thinks anyone making under five million is middle class? His first ten minutes about McCain, Bush and Company went over every talking point posted on Drudge.

C'mon, be real for a minute, that was mediocre at best, a snoozefest at worst.

This guy isn't ready for a second term as a junior senator, let alone the top job in the world.

It was brilliant.I have yet to hear anything substantive from the whining choir who have McBush as an alternative.

He hit everything, and well.

You whining bitches in the peanut gallery are screwed, and if you don't know it yet, that's your problem.

Laundry list--things sound different on the radio--no visual hype.

He misrepresented McCain on most everything--don't worry--McCain will do the same to Obama..

He had the same platitudes and did some specifics and then misrepresented McCain. On taxes, and energy.

I agree with him on schools and teachers--but the problem is with the gov't and he wants to grow it.

Why hasn't he passed a law to allow hospitals allow gays to see eachother in the hospital?

"Hope we confess?" What does that mean?

It was a good show--same liberal talking points given by a gifted speaker.

Kirk, disturbedrex, cookfish, and nanc think Obama stunk.

I'm sold: It was a great speech and they're worried that McCain is gonna shit a square egg when it's his turn.

PS- He will, "my friends".

It was a good speech. Not his best, but good enough for prime time national television.

You righties keep on dreaming and listening to the voices in your heads.

Oh, and keep voting against your own best interests.

Incredible night for the Democrats. Obama was a lot tougher than I expected him to be, but it worked. He took every one of McCain's attack lines and turned them around on him.

It was a virtuoso performance. If I didn't know better I'd think we were Republicans. Democrats have never been this good at presidential campaigns in my entire life.

Pretty thin-skinned, BetelG.
Maybe you're the loser.
I freakin' labelled my problems with Obama.

I'll give you one real clear that a product of public education and too much Oprah watching can understand:
Obama had a record crowd and he spent that opportunity (plus MLK's Dream speech anniversary) picking on McCain with OLD criticisms he's used before in his stump speeches adding *nothing* new in terms of inspiration.

If you can neither understand that nor discern that then YOU (and possibly your candidate) are the loser.

I freaking admit when I or my candidate are wrong/lacking. You should do the same.

He hit everything, and well.

He lied through his teeth about McCain and middle class wages. No better than the lie about being in Iraq for a hundred years.

He misrepresented McCain on most everything

He really didn't. McCain and co have tried to paint obama as an elitist and celebrity. McCain fits that bill more than Obama.

Also, he's voted with bush 95% of the time. Spent 26 years in congress and voted against CAFE standards. Oops.

Obama needs to point out that McCain is a hothead.

But Obama had the grace not to point out McCains vote against MLK day as a holiday...and john's recent lie about being for it.

Rogers, buddy, I love ya man......but you should have named yourself Rogers Hyberbolehead.

LOL. I'm lovin this:

"a snoozefest"

Obama rocked. And I have yet to hear anything but nonsense from those whose fragile windows he shook to the point of shattering.

Obama was a lot tougher than I expected him to be, but it worked. He took every one of McCain's attack lines and turned them around on him.

Exactly. I loved it.

Especially the lines about McCain being a good guy, but just not getting it. Being out of touch.

Hey rogers-

Disturbed = rex zeitgeist. : D

"Obama had a record crowd and he spent that opportunity (plus MLK's Dream speech anniversary) picking on McCain with OLD criticisms he's used before in his stump speeches adding *nothing* new in terms of inspiration."

...and if he had brought up MLK he would now be accused of playing the race card....

Truth..

He rocked!

"Distrurbed"-
Who the fuck are you? And will you ever type anything worth reading? A "snoozefest"? What a sore loser. Obama curt McCain/Bush into several pieces respectfully and convincingly. And with force, and appropriate anger, and with a vision that your party can only seem to muster for 2% of the population.

We all have a little Zeitgeist in us.

Alex--Mac has said he was mistaken and sorry for not voting for MLK day.

Obama missed McCain on taxes--he doesn't want to raise people's taxes period.

Obama does like all good liberals--and once they start they can't stop themselves.

The Repubs have their problems with spending and charging the credit card to the deficit.

But to Mac's credit--he is a penny pincher and won't let spending get crazy--he hates pork.

But Obama wants to tax folks and if elected my taxes will sky rocket.

Alex--Mac has said he was mistaken and sorry for not voting for MLK day.

I hope so. You deserve it.

Best damn political speech I've seen in my lifetime. He did EXACTLY what he needed to do and even surprised me with more.

It will be remembered as a high watermark of political speech for years to come.

Fuckin' brilliant.

I thought it was one of the speeches of a lifetime. I really have no idea what some of the DR righties think they saw. What they're doing can only be seen as an attempt to spin it down, typical DR righty bullshit.

I think Obama got through to a lot of people tonight. Now, Barack just needs to keep it rolling until November.

"Why hasn't he passed a law to allow hospitals allow gays to see eachother in the hospital?"

Don't you think that the more pertinent question is why do conservatives oppose legislation that would allow it, whom you generally support????
Please explain how you justify voting for a politician opposed to civil unions.

"Now, Barack just needs to keep it rolling until November."

WE have to keep it rolling. Emphasis on WE!

*I* wouldn't have accused him of playing the race card.

I laid out my problems, I'll start taking bets tomorrow after McCain names his VP pick.

Maybe Obama has too many asshole advisers like BetelG who jsut say "attack attack attack!" And call people "fuckin' losers."

once again, he promised change. wtf does he mean by that? he NEVER elaborated, yet there were weeping obamatrons throughout the audience.

Hunny I'd much rather weep tears of joy and warmth for Barack Obama than I would be "Weeping" into a pair of Depends with john McCain.

I'm glad to hear you're making so much money. Congratulations on your financial success!

McCain Still Trying to Find Spectators

According to the Dayton Daily News, Sen. John McCain is still giving away tickets to his Friday rally where he will unveil his running mate. He's having trouble filling a 10,000 seat arena.

Murphy-
re: "But Obama wants to tax folks and if elected my taxes will sky rocket."

How much do you make? Obama's plan lowers taxes for 95% of the population, and only raises taxes for the top 5% to pre-Bush levels, while closing loopholes for corporations who are currently rewarded for sending jobs overseas.

You don't seem to have been given factual information.

What they're doing can only be seen as an attempt to spin it down, typical DR right

Seems like it to me, too. They know they're going up against the Democratic Reagan, and McCain could live another 200 years and not deliver a speech with that kind of rhetorical and political heft. All they can hope for is that a combination of Rovian smear attacks and diehard Republican voters are enough to squeak this one out.

I don't see it happening, though. Even as a person whose default position is to expect the Democrats to lose, I am as confident as I've ever been in my life of a Democratic victory in a presidential race.

"if elected my taxes will sky rocket."

How, exactly?

"You don't seem to have been given factual information."

That's never stopped Murphy in the past.

I stand corrected. WE!

"Distrurbed"-
re: Hussein

That's clever. You have no point to make of any value, so you rely on the trite and cheap:

"I have no positive thing to say about the last eight years, or about McCain, so I'll just call Obama "Hussein" and pretend that that will work"

Sorry. It won't, and only further reveals you as a retard without any substance.

NOBODY will be watching THAT speech in 40 years.

"Rogers, buddy, I love ya man......but you should have named yourself Rogers Hyberbolehead.

Hi Disturbed.

Always glad to see a "new" face ;-)!

With your flair for hard-hitting commentary, I'll be EAGERLY awaiting your review of next week's convention.

Hope that event doesn't "rain" on your parade!

I lost count at 38 promises. Also his words don't match his actions.

You lefties didn't see that he was leaning to the middle with this speech.

MURHPY

If your husband nets over $250,000 a year you don't need a tax cut.

For the other 90% of Americans who will get a larger tax cut than McCain proposes, why would you vote against your best interests by voting for McCain?

If you want the rhetorical left Rogers, you got it tonight. Is it really what you want for your children?

There is a better then 50/50 chance that Obama is going to be the next President of the United States, the leader of the free world.

A President facing nuclear despots, terrorists, and economic hardships.

Ask yourself, is the ideal the reality?

Kirk- in 40 years they'll be showing this speech:

NOBODY will be watching THAT speech in 40 years.

My daughters will be showing THEIR families that speach in 40 years.

Obama BaRAWKED!

Wait! I've been contaminated!

The boy did good. I'm glad to see him give a more substantive than inspiring speech, one that repositions him back to his more moderate, God-fearing, pragmatic change agent position, while promoting traditional lefty policy, my favorite kind.

Great job being tough, too. I think he was packing heat.

And a great compliment to Hillary, stealing her "it's not about me, it's about you", line that let her close so strong in middle America where he needs help.

He helped himself tonight.

You lefties didn't see that he was leaning to the middle with this speech.

Leaning to the middle after these last 8 years IS going to the left. Fine with me.

That was the best speech I have ever heard live in my entire life.

And to answer Nanc, he elaborated precisely on change. Change is doing the exact opposite of what Bush did or would do.

Change is the exact opposite of what neocon GOP hacks have been doing to America for the last 8 years. Go watch the speech again.

But America saw that speech, you can't put the genie back in the bottle. Millions of people all over America just saw the most amazing thing they may ever see, and nothing you say can touch that.

Next week McCain is going to look like a miserly old toad, yelling at the kids to get off his damn lawn, compared to what happened tonight.

I think Obama is going to get that 15 point bounce.

Danni--

They can pass a law for patients--they did the Patients Bill of Rights--and didn't include it.

I go back and forth on civil unions--it's a name change and the slippery slope goes on.

But gays can get the same privileges as married folks with laws changed and contracts--like many married folks have to do to make sure their affairs are in order.

Obama gave the same liberal talking points.

Alex--you and I and the media know nothing of Cindy and her finances or the Mac household.

And McCain hates pork barrel spending--name something he put in a bill for pork? You can't--

You guys see McCain's "congratulations" video?

Classy!

Let's see if Obama responds in kind.

Murphy- the visitation was ONE example. there are over 1000 rights that married couples enjoy that those with civil unions do not.

Why? Cuz "gays are icky" and that's about it.

"NOBODY will be watching THAT speech in 40 years."

Quite possibly true. But...if we elect John McCain....let's face it....there is a real chance no one will be reading anything in 40 years because we'll be dead. Electing John McCain is like electing a loose cannon as president.

Looked like the Denver Convention was a fine event, and one that was looking to appeal to the average people not to billionaires in the oil and gas industry.

If you want the rhetorical left Rogers, you got it tonight. Is it really what you want for your children?

Without a doubt in my mind. McCain's nuts. The guy tried to spark a war with Russia just last week! I don't want my kids fighting any Republican wars or saddled with any more borrow-and-spend Republican debts. I want McCain to lose like Mondale so the current crop of Republicans is wiped out and they have to start over. The GOP is so bad today that I'm reassessing Nixon.

Alex--you and I and the media know nothing of Cindy and her finances or the Mac household.

Think again, smurphy. YOU don't know something, as usual.

You lefties didn't see that he was leaning to the middle with this speech.

I saw, and that's exactly what I expected from him. That pragmatism is exactly why I've supported him since '04. He spoke directly to Republicans, directly to their concerns, and I'm telling you right now, he won many over.

If you were planning on running against Jimmy Carter, prepare to get your ass handed to you.

"But gays can get the same privileges as married folks with laws changed and contracts--like many married folks have to do to make sure their affairs are in order."

Or...we could just treat the EQUALLY and allow gay marriage. How would that hurt you???
The prohibition against gay marriage is a punishment for being gay, at least be honest.
Oh wait, I forgot, you're a REpublican.

Alex--I have friends who are gay and would never describe them as "icky"--that is your word.

I would just like to see marriage between a man and a woman mean something and stay traditional.

When you change the definition of marriage it no longer means anything.

Like it or not, we are America, we carry the big stick, we have since our inception.

There is no Gaia, no one world. We need a leader that will rule, not bow in suplication.

McCain would be considered a blue dog democrat 15 years ago, maybe to the left of Bill Clinton. But he would not waiver in the face of danger to our country.

Obama is no John Kennedy, he is a Neville Chamberlain in waiting.

Mac has said he was mistaken and sorry for not voting for MLK day.

What exactly made him change his mind?

"And McCain hates pork barrel spending--name something he put in a bill for pork? You can't--

Posted by MURPHY "

Yeah, that's why loves pouring money into the military industrial complex.

I would just like to see marriage between a man and a woman mean something and stay traditional.

Then call gay marriage something else, but leave your bigotry away from the equal rights they deserve.

When you change the definition of marriage it no longer means anything.

I guess that explains the 50% divorce rate, since marriage has constantly changed over the centuries. Or do men still get to marry their dead brothers widows at the cost of a few donkeys?

Do brothers still marry sisters?

Can 12 year olds still get legally married?(in the US)

Is interracial marriage still banned?

How about inter religious marriage?

The "traditional view" of marriage 100 years ago was white with white and black with black.

Life is change.

That was awesome. I can't think of any way to have made it better. This from his own hand, leaving his home, going to a hotel and staying up writing his own speech. I don't know who else worked it over with him, if anyone - but this was definitely a tour de force of intellect, strategy and poise.

This is what America needs. This ability to speak, to form ideas, to articulate clearly.

I am impressed.

"Obama is no John Kennedy,.."

Posted by disturbed

You're right. He's better than John Kennedy.

RC

Nixon was a mere crook, Bush is a mobster. The GOP is an organized crime syndicate run by fear and money.

A mandate for Obama would mean the House take-over that Nancy P worked so hard for, holding onto SD's for Obama.

TN--he admitted he was wrong--

Just like he changed his stance on energy.

It wasn't apparent of no urgency to drilling and nuclear and wind and thermal etc when gas was $1.50 a gallon.

When gas got over $4.00 people screamed--this hurts everyone.

Bull Fucking Shit.

If he really believed that load of manure he would back it up with pledges like: ending the office of homeland security, stopping the wiretapping, the torture, etc.

Cock Sucker.

Murphy- I'm sure if the subject came up, and you let your opinions out of the closet, your "gay friends" would be your "former friends who are gay".

John Kennedy stood the line, will the community organizer Obama do so?

The next leader of the free world must.

Alexandrite, the other way marriage has changed is it's moved from "death to us part" to a nice "one man, one woman - at a time."

Serial "monogamy" is the new "tradition."

Shawn- If he takes those stances the republicans will beat him to death with them. "he doesn't care about our security!"

Most americans want torture, even if its unconstitutional.

"Serial monogamy"

That's funny!

Hey sMURPHY-

What part of a traditional marriage was it when McCain cheated on his crippled wife all those times, then married one of his mistresses?

Just curious.

Shawn, vulgarities will get you nowhere.

Use fact and argumentation to make your points.

To do otherwise will only get lost in mitutia.

Use fact and argumentation to make your points.

We've been tellin you that for years. Hasn't done any good, either.

But thanks for the belly laugh, rex.

carefully reading all previous posts will tell who to vote for quite clearly, who wants to live in a America of hate?

Does this sound like a good plan?

Presidential hopeful Senator Barack Obama (DIll.) has unveiled his economic plan of raising taxes on the successful. His plan would boost the top marginal rate to well over 55 percentbefore the inclusion of state and local taxesresulting in many individuals seeing their marginal tax rate double. The consequences of this policy would be a return to the bad old days of tax avoidance, with taxpayers disguising personal income as business income or capital gains and the migration of capital from the United States to abroad.

Among the more prominent elements of his tax proposal, Senator Obama would end the Bush tax cuts and allow the top two tax rates to return to 36 and 39.6 percent. He also would allow personal exemptions and deductions to be phased out for those with income over $250,000. The real kicker, though, is that Senator Obama would end the Social Security payroll tax cap for those over $250,000 in earnings. (The cap is currently set at $102,000.) These individuals will then face a tax rate of 15.65 percent from payroll taxes and the top income tax rate of 39.6 percent for a combined top rate of over 56 percent on each additional dollar earned.

High-income individuals will be forced to pay even more if they live in cities or states with high taxes such as New York City, California, or Maryland. These unlucky people would pay over two-thirds of each new dollar in earnings to the federal government.

How the Obama Tax Plan Compares to Other Countries

Senator Obama's new tax rate would give the United States one of the highest tax rates among developed countries. Currently only six of the top 30 industrial nations have a tax rate for all levels of government combined of over 55 percent. Under this tax plan, the United States would join this group and have a higher top rate than such high-tax nations as Sweden and Denmark. The top marginal rate would exceed 60 percent with the inclusion of state and local taxes, which means that only Hungary would exceed Senator Obama's new proposed top tax rate.

The costs in economic terms of such high taxes are real. For example, of the six countries with higher tax rates than 55 percent, the average unemployment rate is 7.35 percent. This figure includes Denmark, which appears to have a very low unemployment rate of 3.9 percent. However, Denmark spends over 5 percent of its GDP on unemployment programs and benefits, thereby increasing its unemployment rate.

A Return to the Bad Old Days

Historically, Senator Obama's tax rate would be the highest individual tax rate since the Jimmy Carter days. Tax shelters and tax avoidance strategies were common when the top marginal rate was 70 percent or higher. This new top tax rate will again encourage these gimmicks, reducing investment and economic growth as resources are squandered in an attempt to avoid punitive taxation.

Many individuals will attempt to transfer their compensation from wages to capital gains, since capital gains would only be taxed at 25 percent, or less than half of the top rate on wages. This would put a great deal of pressure on a company to do anything it could to make its stock quickly increase in value. Other individuals would try to incorporate so they could pay business taxes instead of having to pay taxes on their wages. Again, these resources would be diverted away from more productive uses and slow the economy.

High tax rates also encourage capital and income flight to lower-taxed areas. There is ample evidence in the United States of individuals and businesses moving to states such as Florida or Delaware to take advantage of their tax-friendly laws. A higher federal tax rate would encourage individuals to move assets abroad to take advantage of lower tax rates in countries such as Canada, France, and Great Britain.

These high tax rates could also have a large impact on the labor force. Many workers could choose to reduce their hours or simply retire in the face of such high taxation. Economists usually argue a great deal about what effect minor changes in the tax code will have on incentives to work. However, the Obama plan calls for a tax increase so large that economists will be focusing on the harm to the overall economy rather than just the isolated effects on labor and on capital.

A Finite Source of Revenue

Perhaps a larger worry than the damage to the economy is the long-run budget problem of the United States. While Senator Obama raises taxes a great deal on upper income individuals, the overall tax plan increases the national deficit. As a result, the country will be even less prepared to pay for current and future Social Security and Medicare obligations. When money is needed to pay for those programs, it will be hard to tax the rich even more, given that the top rate will already be so high. Instead, in order to pay the government's spending and entitlement shortfalls, taxes would fall most heavily on middle-income Americans. After all, even successful taxpayers are not an infinite source of revenue.
