Title: Was anyone as distrubed as me by the most recent presidential debate? Post by: OhioLawyer on October 17, 2008, 12:13:06 pm I actually heard the phrase "redistribution of wealth" come out of Obama's mouth. I mean his policy has always convinced me of his socialist beliefs, but that is not just socialist, that is pure communism. Straight out of the mouth of Karl Marx.
I really fear for this country. I really do. Not only is Socialism/communism a horrible horrible scurge of a political system, but instituting it under the superstructure of the American Constitution causes so much practical conflict in the implementation that all I can picture is a giant mushroom cloud of a disaster.

We're both pretty immature so we decided to write in vote for "Joe the Plumber." We then had a contest to see who could use the word "repudiate" the most regardless of proper usage. I told her I was gonna repudiate her in the face. She then told me she would repudiate me in the junk.
Seriously though, I'm right there with you man. Title: Re: Was anyone as distrubed as me by the most recent presidential debate? Post by: DanOceans1 on October 17, 2008, 12:52:39 pm NO WAY...I thought the same exact thing, but my US History teacher told me that he probably didn't say that >:(
Title: Re: Was anyone as distrubed as me by the most recent presidential debate? Post by: [BC]Hollywood on October 17, 2008, 01:13:53 pm I was watching something on HBO about a year ago. It was one of those one-sided Michael Moore-esque 'expose' type things talking about the war in Iraq/Blackwater/etc. One of the things they were talking about was how the President is nothing more than a figure head and that the real decisions come from these secret government contracted think tanks. They were trying to say the administration just uses these places and presents the ideas as their own. I wish I had more info.
I usually vote based on who's wearing the red or blue tie. Title: Re: Was anyone as distrubed as me by the most recent presidential debate? Post by: JTRamboman on October 17, 2008, 01:49:16 pm I was not disturbed. Now which one you richers is redistributing your wealth to me?!?

Tax cuts are awesome. But lowering the goverment's revenue intake at this stage in history is moronic. I would, in this situation, propose a plan similar to Alexander Hamilton's during his term as Secretary of Treasury under Washington: INCREASE taxes. I know everyone hates them, but sometimes we all have to bear a burden. DO NOT increase taxes on the rich. The government borrows billions of dollars from it's own social elite; the government pays the loan back with interest, and the rich get richer. Then the "trickle down" effect begins. When the rich get richer, everyone gets richer. Aside from Hamilton's views, we also need to do something about that damn welfare. I live in Mississippi, so I see thousands- possibly even millions- of people taking welfare checks who NEVER search for jobs. I don't want to pay for some worthless scum to sit on his ass all day. Another qualm I have is this: No Child Left Behind Act. If your child gives an honest effort and still needs help, I understand. But if you want the government to downgrade the nation's educational rigor because your son is too busy texting the girl he's having promiscuous sex with instead of paying attention, I would have no problem seeing him fail a grade or two. And then there's the moral issue: abortion. I'm a Christian, and I am 100% pro life. God and I both will rue the day when America doesn't care about the unborn anymore. When that day comes, I believe that America will fall to it's knees. >___> Ok. There's my opinion. Keep in mind, I'm 16, so I might have misconstrued a few things. Sorry if I did.

Agreed. Definitely the hottest politician I've ever seen. Of course, Biden does refer to himself in the third person...which gives him OVER 9000! bonus sexy points....I can't decide. =/ And thanks, although I'm sure that Ohio has crafted much more in-depth arguements. You might have just missed them. Title: Re: Was anyone as distrubed as me by the most recent presidential debate?

Title: Re: Was anyone as distrubed as me by the most recent presidential debate? Post by: OhioLawyer on October 20, 2008, 08:52:06 am I posted this same topic on F5 if you want to check it out. A pretty decent discussion over there too. I'll have to get the link later if you can't find it on your own.
EDIT: here is the thread from F5. It is a good read. http://www.duncanphilpott.com/smf/index.php?topic=9358.0 Title: Re: Was anyone as distrubed as me by the most recent presidential debate? Post by: fortunzfavor on October 20, 2008, 12:39:49 pm Obama wants to tax all our employers. That couldn't possibly come back to bite us in the ass. What are they going to do? Not give us a raise? Cut our pay? Fire us? Stop hiring after we're fired? Inconceivable!
C'mon OhioLawyer. We know you're keeping all your dough in your mattress for cushioning. Cough it up so I can get me some fancier student loans man. I need a new laptop >:D Title: Re: Was anyone as distrubed as me by the most recent presidential debate? Post by: Grimjow on October 20, 2008, 03:53:08 pm (D) u ppl and ur governmental ideals *pffft*
