I don't see it in the context of any delegates. John here is a link to an Atlantic article about the buttons you claim are "Made up" and other gear at the convention. link Did you read your own link? "This button doesn't appear to be official merchandise, but a street vendor was hawking it at CarolinaFest, an outdoor Labor Day celebration in downtown Charlotte". A street vendor? Really, a street vendor, seriously! John, Hardock only asked if it was racist. Neither of us suggested an origin. You attributed it to being a republican Prop. I offered the story documenting it as being readily available to the convention crowd. Do you have evidence that it was a staged Photo to back up the claim you made?

Yeah, he only asked IF it was racist?    That is not how I read the comment he originally posted.
However, that is a racist pin in my opinion, and just because it references Obama, I don't think it is ok. I'd guess whomever made it knew exactly what they were wanted to accomplish, and it seems like it worked.

Shall Jon and I spend a few minutes with Google to show the other side of the racial coin? No.   Because if you refuse to admit your party has produced racist material, well, I won't be able to help you see it. Just need to do some research on your own. KKK, skinheads, hammerskins, aryan nations, etc., all have roots in the republican party.

Or the gop follower that shot Gabby in Arizona. You wanna participate in that crowd?    Dude, you are absolutely crazy!! You are just like the lamestream media that immediately looks for a Tea Party connection everytime there is a shooting. The guy that shot Gabby Giffords is some crazed maniac that doesn't even know what year it is. This is the kind of sh&t that is over the top. You are what the face of the new Democrat party is.....a bunch of socialist, kooks!....you sir, are a bonafide IDIOT!! UPDATE HEY ONE-WHEEL....Did you forget about the Liberal that shot a security gaurd at the Family Research Center because he didn't agree with their policies? Thats the party I ABSOLUTELY want nothing to do with! Liberal Socialist Shoots Guard at Family Research Council Because He Disagreed With Their Conservative Prcinciples There you go IDIOT!

I see you updated, to call me idiot again. Nice.

So if I take you at what you wrote.

You'll never agree a a republican could do such a thing, but a democrat will?

But even if a republican did, it'd be ok since you agree with them.




Settle down, have a beer it is Sat., actually have a few more than one, post back up at that point. I'll call you a name then, and really get you going.      

Hardock,


Here is a quote from the link you posted.

“We don’t know enough about him or his circumstances to determine what his connection is to this group or his mental state, or what he was doing or thinking of doing,” McJunkin said. “So we’re going to try to sort this all out, pull the evidence together, do all the interviews we can.”




Great job!

Just to show how far some "crazy" will take a little political advertisement. This is Sarah Palins ad, notice the target on Gabby Giffords name. True the others were not shot, but there wasn't a Jared Laughner in all those cities.



We as voters need to get this under control.

Here's an example of respect for life?
Only in the religious right's twisted minds could this make sense.
South Dakota lawmakers are considering a bill that could make it legal in many cases to kill doctors who perform abortions.
House Bill 1171, passed out of the House Judiciary committee on a 9-3 vote and is expected to face a floor vote in the GOP-dominated House before the current legislative session adjourns.
The bill expands the definition of justifiable homicide, and is sponsored by state Rep. Phil Jensen and cosponsored by 22 other state representatives and four state senators.

     HB 1171 adds language to the current criminal code making a homicide permissible if committed by a person "while resisting an attempt to harm" that person's unborn child or the unborn child of that person's spouse, partner, parent, or child.

     The Bill in its entirety reads:

     Section 1. That § 22-16-34 be amended to read as follows:

     Section 2. That § 22-16-35 be amended to read as follows:
accomplished.
     South Dakota's criminal code currently allows prosecutors to charge doctors who perform abortion with manslaughter for crimes that result in the death of fetuses.

     The State legislature attempted to ban abortion outright twice. Voters overturned the ban at the polls in 2006 and 2008 by a 12-point margin both times.

     Republican lawmakers have since been looking to limit access any other way possible.

     "They seem to be taking an end run around that," state Sen. Angie Buhl, said. "They recognize that people don't want a ban, so they are trying to seek a de facto ban by making it essentially impossible to access abortion services."

And a democrat Ad.



So whats the difference?

Obama promised in Florida today that if we elect him he will slash the deficit. Can someone help me with the conversion? If he promised to cut it in half last time and it doubled, how much will it increase when he promises to slash it? I hate the new math. He also said we tried that and it did not work, But I missed the context, Was he talking about his own policies?

You guys cant see the big picture to what he stands for. Wages are down, medical insurance is up, groceries are up, gasoline is out the roof. 24 million people still out of work, Welfare is up 35%, 6 trillion in debt, spent more than Bush in one term. I pray for you lefties, yall are out there man. You dont want follow rules.

PLEASE, don't pray for me, I don't need any help from your imaginary friend!

Billy, didn't you win Thor's magic hammer off of e-bay? Take care of this for us.

Another shining example of what is really in the hearts of those that claim to be the party of diversity, tolerance and compassion. Nice work there big guy. Very uncool.

I see you are not very tolerant of my belief that there is no god.
What if I said I will chant a satanic verse for you? Isn't that the same idea? It goes against your beliefs. Of course wouldn't do that, because I don't believe in any of this spiritual stuff from any source, and I believe you would find it insulting. For anyone to say they will pray for me because their political views are different than mine seems very odd. If its just an expression like "that pie is to die for" than I understand, but that pretty much diminishes the value of prayer for "believers",don't you think?
By the way, there is as much compassion in my heart as anyone's. Just because I don't blindly believe in something for which not a scrap of evidence exists, but mountains of evidence refute, doesn't mean I am not tolerant. Tolerance is the basis of humanity.

Uh, can I get anybody a drink?? Come on guys, religion is such a personal thing. Let's discuss politics instead!

You're right, maybe I took it wrong. I just don't understand praying for someone because they prefer a different presidential candidate. I have friends with many beliefs and its never a problem with our friendship. I would hope that's true here as well. To those who become angry, I understand its just because you are passionate about what you believe in. I like to have discussions and arguments, but not alienate people who have more in common than they have differences. I like to think these arguments are because we all want what is best for all of us, or friends, family, and our future. I wouldn't visit this thread if I didn't like hearing your opinions and commenting. It exposes us to viewpoints we would otherwise not be privy to.

I know we already had a religious fight, but how do you think it was created. Crap just popped out of the ground and here you go. NO!! How morbid.. I could go on and on and on.There is another life other than this. Eternally!!

Billey my brother..
