[quote]There certainly are a lot of facts. The capitalistic countries that have universal health care have healthier, longer living populations and spend a smaller % of their gdp on health care. Unfortunately our govt is incapable of doing things in a way to make them beneficial to the public.[/quote] Yes what happened to that innovation that we had. Take something from someone or somewhere else and make it better. I talked to a guy from the UK just the other day and asked

[quote]Not at all. After all, Obama's mother died very young (about 5 years older than Obama is now). McCain's mother is still alive. You are not guaranteed tomorrow, only today.[/quote] Anyone can go anytime, but it is much more likely that McCain will pass away before Obama will, we are playing percentages here. [quote]YES! But it sure makes you one that I want to buy my next lotto ticket from! [/quote] I will take one too [e digicons]|-)

[quote]So why is it that when we are discussing Senator Obama people try to counter it with the VP candidate from the other party? Is it because Senator Obama is only as good as the oppositions VP?[/quote] No. It is because the VP of that party is very very scary. Very very conservative and a flat out liar. I mean there's bending the truth and then there is lying. She said she ended the bid for the bridge to nowhere, not true in fact she is still behind"a bridg

[quote]But Palin is the VP candidate - not the presidential one. Still cant stop campaigning against Palin, eh? [/quote] ok heres one for you. Crashing your plane 5 times over doesnt make you expert on foreign relations

[quote]But Palin is the VP candidate - not the presidential one. Still cant stop campaigning against Palin, eh? [/quote] They are a team, she is one heartbeat away and with McCains age it is VERY relavant to talk that way more so than with Obama. Now I am not saying that McCain will not make it through his presidency he may live as long or longer than his mom, but I think it is a fair qestion. Maybe she at least knows how to spell potato....lol

[quote]Besides before when abortion was illegal(pre-1973) [/quote] sorry I didnt realize I needed to spell everything out NATIONALLY ILLEGAL. I do know states started reforming strict laws in the 1960's

[quote]I'm just wondering if Mooseplow thinks abortion was illegal in the US prior to Roe V. Wade.[/quote] I like how you guys dance around the issue and only deal with peripherals. You dont argue my main point because you cant, just pick and choose little bits that maybe in some type of a technical way you can win points. Deal with the main issue.

[quote]It actually is just a demonstration of why he should not be president. A mistake like that, and Russia gets half of europe. And he is worried about Bush (should be Clinton) selling the US to the Chinese?[/quote] And why being able to see Russia from you state doesnt qaulify you to be vice president....make that mistake and we all will be speaking russian:)

[quote]I'm more interested in taking care of our own first before promising money to foreign countries that don't even like us. I'm for encouraging but not forcing people to take care of each other and fight for our country.[/quote] then you need to vote democrat, as thoughout the years republicans are the ones who have scolded the dems for not spending enough on overseas spending. The democrats dont support our allies enough, they dont fight for central american countries enou

[quote]I respect her stance on abortion. She believes that life starts at conception and that God is responsible for bringing about that life. If you truly believe that, it wouldn't matter how that conception came about (i.e. rape). I'd rather have a leader who is true to their faith than one who claims to be of a faith but doesn't walk the walk.[/quote] Abortion shouldnt even be a stance, its a religious issue. Seperation of church and state. The state should not tell

[quote]the administrator doesn't have to be any of these things.[/quote] In some ways he has to be all of them. [quote]Oh, and Also Mooseplow, what front runner has ever picked a running mate for anything other than "political reasons". Your whole accusation is moronic.[/quote] politics will play into it, but shouldnt you be picking someone you know you can work with and you know you have the same goals as thereby forming a "Team"

[quote]What has Obama done? What are his qualifications for being CEO of our country? He claims to have worked for the common good in Chicago. Where are examples of things he actually did? Just because he says he knows stuff doesn't mean it's so.[/quote] There is the main problem, our country(country first, you know) is NOT a business. There are aspects of our nations business that should be run that way, but to lead a nation is more than being a CEO. As parated point

[quote]Yeah, Matt Damon is who I turn to for sage advice.[/quote] No matter your political party damon is right we know nothing of her, she was picked for politics, hardly the move of a maverick, more one of swindler.

[quote]It's ridiculous to say that the Republicans don't care about the welfare of people, their health and housing when in fact it's been proven that Conservatives are bigger individual givers than their Liberal counterparts are. [/quote] Yeah well If you are a republican and have 1 million dollars and I am a democrat and I have 45,000 dollars and we both want to give money who do you think will be the higher individual giver. I mean are you serious....I listen to you guys here

[quote] A final comment: My wife, Dr. Lynda, is not one of those women I just mentioned, and she’s really quite intelligent. After your interviews, all she could say was, “What?”[/quote] I agree, I thought her thoughts on foreign affairs were the worst part of the interview. Great she's close to Russia and has "commanded" the Alaskan national guard(like 49 other goveners havent commanded theirs). This I guess makes her the next General Petraus.

[quote] I never said anything about changing one's mind. As you grow and learn and receive more information you will change some of your ways or ideas over time, but one thing that doesn't change is truth. Taking the life of another to make your life better is murder. It was murder. It is murder and will always be murder no matter how much "lipstick" you put on it. Taking the life of another for any reason outside of self defense is murder. [/quote] If we are talking about abort
