Quotehiya phartacus...

you said you meant to send me a PM - did the moment pass?

yea pretty much, basically it would have been along the lines of: dont take me seriously, never wanted you to get offended, send me nude pictures of yourself etc etc

QuoteEggman - I\'m sorry for any confusion - my reference to the handle may have been just a bit too oblique... it was indeed intended for Phartacus and not you.

As to your current discussion with Buswolley - I think the only way to end a lot of this jerrymandering of the vote is to do away with the electoral college.

Peace to ya both.   :-*

I believe the electoral college was set up to urge candidates to plead their case to an entire state, otherwise if there was a popular vote they could just concentrate their efforts in larger metro areas. We of course could argue if its an outdated system. I personally dont like it.

GKG ive been meaning to send you a PM just havent found time...keep an eye out please

No better or worse than the platform Bush stole the election over on-terrorism. I\'ll take just about anything over the current administration, even roadkill.

if your contention is that "roadkill" could govern just as well as a human then you admit this whole change thing is purely based upon your hatred of bush and this change you seem to want is not in any certain policy?

Quotemajor change

ahh yes the "change" mantra ive had shoved down my throat in every 10 second soundbyte spewing forth from my TV. a vague and ambiguous campaign slogan tailor made for a political party that lacks any substanative answers to the most simple problems america faces.

When whitewolf said that democracy is no good for tribal people and nobody challenged him on that i had a feeling this board was infested with closet racists. But now its been 4 days since the first black man won the iowa caucusses and the silence is quite puzzling. I mean after all you liberals are the ones constantly making the claim that you champion the cause and the plight of black people held under thumb of us racist rich WHITE republicans. I thought for sure this board would be alive with posts reveling in this historic event.

Quote unfortunately, far too many folks have grown accustomed to the notion that someone else will take care of things.

whoah, wtf could i have been wrong about you? This really has me puzzled cause the catalyst of all our bickering comes from your bashing bush over the hurrican katrina debacle. It was my position all along that those folks were lazy sloths for a) not getting the fuck outta there before the storm hit and b) for depending on a government that is notorious for screwin shit up.

its probably because people like you make inane ramblings about who knows what, or in the case oldfolkie wish death on elected leaders, or me who is also hyper partisan throwing out sarcastic posts. or you could just chalk it up to good old fashioned apathy.

QuoteI am an artist mostly known for acting in movies, but I am also a citizen and a voter who resents the control that big money, big media, and entrenched political interests have in deciding what I should see, what I should hear, and what I should be allowed to think.

i resent the fact that this guy who acts in movies and has a total disconnect from the realities of the real world has a bully pulpit to spew forth his hatred and propaganda.

penn gillette said it best (paraphrasing) i find it absurd that because i can juggle i have the opportunity to give my political beliefs

frank sinatra was asked by a reporter what he thought of the viet nam war to which he replied....im just a singer

why is it always democrats that seem to have such problems voting? im 36 years old and have voted in every election since i was 18 and not once have i had a problem registering or making it to the polls on time.

i guess the thing that bothers me most is the common complaints from the left is that bush steals elections and is going to somehow become a dictator while you have chavez down there in venezuela doing just that and not a word is uttered. and then there is the america is imperialistic and steals the worlds resources crap while putin makes a grab for the north pole for its resources and still the left remains silent. and you wonder why i think you are all demented? its simple bush derangement syndrome.

bump

oldfolkie im still waiting for an answer. i even did some searching on my own and cannot find any evidence of bush seeking to steal another term. you have got me really worried here cause i cannot stomache another 4 years of bush (or another 4 years of a clinton for that matter). please enlighten me.

QuoteI have long since used up my surprise quota when it comes to Dubya & the Axis of Evil (Cheney/Rumsfeld/Rove). The only thing that might surprise me yet, would be if they DON\'T make some move towards establishing a dictatorship before November 2008.  They\'ve taken all the preliminary steps...
which preliminary steps do you speak of....specifics please. and when the new president takes office in jan 09 will you not only admit youre demented but also finally get the help you need?
