- He has strong alliances with Rev. Wright, William Ayers, Lewis Faracan etc... Maybe not friends but alliances and the saying goes "if you stand near the sewer, your gonna smell like shit".
- He is strongly involved with ACORN. They decided to sue City Bank because they would not give subprime loans to the minorities. So City Bank had to settle out of court. Guess who's name is on the file?? Thats right. Now look where the market is because of these guys.
- There are many more but I gotta run. I will post more later.
Hell, look into it yourself also please.
If this guy gets elected our nation is finished.

    I'm just not voting for him because I don't agree with most of his platform. I have nothing personal against him, hes a good Senator, but not ready for President.

    Just my two cents...not worth much.
    BRING BACK THE WHALE

    Great strategy you got there, attack and run away.

    Shouldn't the discussion be more about why you should vote for someone instead of why you shouldn't vote for the other guy? Regardless, I figure you'll come back to see many reasons not to vote for McCain.

    if you're going to start a thread on something like this..even though there are dozens..why would you only post two bullet points that aren't even close to being the top reasons why he's not qualified.

    there are already a million threads out there about 'why to vote for obama.' Here's one on why not.
    Interesting, though, that you are unable to debate and can only nitpick.

    Personally, I dislike both Obama & McCain.
    I really screwed that up. I really Schruted it.

    jesus christ really? thats pretty pathetic. i'm sure someone with a brain could come up with far more legitimate reasons not to vote for him. why didnt you just add that he is a muslim who pals around with terrorists and wants to steal our white women? why dont you just admit you are and always were going to vote for McCain?

    what a dumb thread.

    Hooray for you. And you should check your facts before you go mouthing off. Acoustic guy is the king of starting anti obama threads then fucking off and not coming back to finish the debate. Or when someone is trying to have a reasoned debate with him and comes back with counter points he ignores you. Ok?

    Here's a fact:
    As soon as you said "mouthing off" you lost any credit as an educated individual...

    Here's a couple more facts for you:

    Opinions are not facts. Also, saying a statement is a fact does not necessarily make it so unless you can back it up with proof.

    No she didn't. This is hardly an academic symposium, at the best of times.

    Now, to address the original post: whose nation is finished, if Obama becomes president?

    Ok, well maybe as an educated individual, you might like to read one of acoustic guys trademark threads.

    8 pages long. He instigated the thread and many people tried to debate back with him and he replied once. Mostly we were ignored.

    But you go right ahead and call Neil Jam a nit picker and saying he won't debate. You cant debate with someone who only wants to light the fires and then run away.

    +1 for first response to an acoustic guy thread in ages.

    Reasons NOT to vote for McCain:

    -He is old
    -There are a million more but I gotta run, sorry guys!

    Among other reasons...

  • Who the hell is Lewis Faracan? :D
  • How bout he wants to seek out terrorism, increase the troops to bomb people out, and he gives his undying support for Israel as a strong never ending ally smack dab in the face of Arab nations.

    Lets face it Israel is really just a US stronghold for grabbing and controlling resources in that part of the world. I bet he even pops off a few more military bases over there as well just to rub it in.

    No change going on there that I can see. The grey haired old dude is worse however...he's on a mission from God to whack any who oppose the US for the next hundred years...10,000 if necessary. Nice plan. Real evolutionary trend he has planned for humanity.

    Obama only wants to do it for a decade more or so...well...5 years more, but we all know how that's going to pan out...might as well be 50... Bush would settle for 50, and I don't think he's going to be disappointed.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    I'm pretty sure our nation is already finished.

    Obama will just be a fresh start... Well not so fresh, but less conservative..

    Here's a suggestion.
    Instead of employing into the partisan political tactics that are designed to target the dumbest in our society, how about pointing out the POSITIVE aspects of the person you are voting for?
    For example... on the economy... what will John McCain do to stimulate economic growth? Or on the issue of Global Terrorism... what is John McCain's plan to curtail the expansion of people who will apply for the job of Human Bomb?
    All of this negative shit gets pretty sickening. I basically means that you have nothing on your side to build up your candidate... so the easy and stupid way is to tear down the other side. As long as we buy into this moronic crap... we will never get anywhere.

    ....And AG hardly ever wants to come back and resopnd to these kinds of threads or maybe he just doesn't care. In a way it seems he's trying hard to convince others or people like myself that are not for neither side to jump aboard the McCain/Palin ticket. Which will change this country for the better and the other guy will destroy it, a scare tactic it appears that won't work for me.

    I don't like neither candidate but I'm feeling more and more that McCain won't get my vote.
