Rezko and Ayers aren't tenuous, you just haven't looked into it hard enough.

Wright, Rezko, Ayers, F&F, ACORN are all insights to man's judgement and character. they represent patterns of behaviour that should be allowed no different scrutinization than any other person looking to hold the highest office.

I thought we were discussing the video you posted. You know, the one that had a heading "Intellectual liberals didn't like our rally."

What's the next negatively-connoted conservative catchphrase? Is "informed" next?

Well enlighten us then. Because I've read just about every mainstream investigative piece on both these issues and I haven't seen anything indicating there's much of a relationship at all, much less one that warrants some sort of apology.

So to me it seems that you, like the rest of your McCain supporter brethren, are still grasping desperately at straws, confronted with the fact that you've lost the election.

Nothing. They have nothing and thats why they are resorting to this stuff.

ok pal. there's so much tire-swinging going on in the mainstream media that it's impossible to make a straight-faced argument that they've never favored McCain.

I'll give you Ohio. And Florida. Obama is going to win Virginia. And Colorado. And New Mexico. And Nevada. And Iowa.

Ah, so instead of proving that I'm wrong most of the time, you'd rather just concede the point and move on to a moot one? You're losing me here.

there is no point. it's should be obvious to anyone with a half a brain that there are distorted opinions about candidates on both sides. thats why they're called opinions.

i'd argue that the more irrational, violent and sometimes criminal are the ones on the left but, again, thats just my opinion.

haha very funny

Regardless, I don't think any of this matters. Theres a little more than 3 weeks left. One debate to go and if the previous ones are any indication, I really don't expect McCain to perform drastically different either way.

Obama has got to be measuring the drapes by now.

Maybe this Ayers and questionable connections will move some numbers for McCain but he is not going to play Swift boat. It would have to be a media Swift boat blitzkrieg and McCain just wouldn't do that.

I mean look at this shit:


McCain has never really been up at all. Short of a drastic event that changes the political landscape nothing is going to significantly alter the course of this race, especially not a bunch of rehashed old shit we've already heard.

Republicans tried experience, that didn't work.
Republicans tried questionable connections, that didn't work.
Republicans tried change, that didn't work.
Republicans tried appealing to women, that didn't work.
Republicans tried appealing to the base, that didn't work.

Now we're back at the questionable connections? Talk about grasping at straws.

There is one campaign here that throughout a protracted primary, and all of the election so far, has never had to change their theme.

I know I was being funny, see, ha ha

Your comments about Obama wanting to sip tea "with fucking communists" does however make you sound like one of those raving loonies in the videos. I was expecting to read you accusing Obama of being a terrorist as well because of his "unfortunate" middle name. My EU flags were for your benefit as well as the type of right wing nut job that is the topic of discussion of this thread hates Europe and calls us European socialists (like that is supposed to be some kind of insult!).
