Obama/Biden vs. McCain/Palin

[letsgocards89]

I'm all for killing people that have undoubtedly killed others. What's the alternative? Have them sit in a jail cell for 60 years?

I'm against abortion, though I don't really think it should be illegal. I don't really feel it's my place to force my interpretations or beliefs on others.

So, because I'm pro-life, pro-capital punishment, you think I'm a hypocrite? Which of my positions do you disagree with?

You're standing up for what you believe, not forcing anything on people. If that was the case no one could ever vote on anything because they'd be forcing their beliefs on others. In fact, that's WHY we vote, so that each person's stance can be accounted for.

I now have to scrub my eyeballs because I checked that out with safesearch off. I hope you all appreciate my commitment here.

I told you safesearch off is a bad idea.

I never said I wouldn't vote for someone I agree with on political issues, nor did I say no one should. I just don't think it's my place to force my religous beliefs on others.

I think taxes should be lower and will vote to get someone elected that agrees with me. That's my prerogative. Yet, I won't vote for someone because they are saying abortion is bad and we need to overturn roe v wade.

I just think that the religous right gets a little too carried away sometimes with cramming what they think is right down others throats. Just like I think some politicians get a little too carried away in cramming what they think is right down my throat.

W/O answers to what?

How to create opportunities for the poor?
How to provide universal health care coverage?
How to strenghten families?
How to create unity?
How to make "America Respectable" again?

He has answers to all of those questions. Answers that satisfy you? I'm assuming that they won't...... just a hunch. But don't say he doesn't have answers.

I would call you pro-death.





(Even though I have the same views as mentioned yesterday, I am joking.)

i'd hate to break it to you...but taxes will never go down...too much money being made. if they cut programs, money just get shifted to other parts. if they give tax breaks, more than likely other parts of the tax code increases to make up for the difference.

politicians never give up money

what they need is for someone to go through the budget and be vicious...but neither candidate will do that...too many people are making too much money off of it.

Would a line item veto be a good tool for a President to have?

I agree, sadly. And, was just using taxes because it's pretty far away from being a religous issue.
