Jeez, and here Sarah Palin thinks they're about as accurate as can
be.
As she said on Oct. 4th, "Turns out one of Barack's earliest
supporters is a man who, according to the New York Times, and they
are
hardly ever wrong..."

Do you know something she doesn't? Or is she really just as dumb as a
fence post?

She has an especially fine-tuned appreciation for Irony. G

Please don't post metalworking items in the metal newsgroups, Eregon.
This is a political group. :^)

Besides, you're just lengthening Ed's hardon for Sarah, if that's
possible. wink (Note to Ed: I voted for McCain and Palin
yesterday. I drop it in the mail today. Oregon is all vote-by-mail.)

Good for you! It's good to hear that you voted for a real candidate. Now
you're partly responsible for whatever happens, whether your candidate
wins
or loses. That's the price of democracy. d8-)

Luckily for the country Oregon is a blue state and is going to go for
Obama
in a big way. That means his vote is meaningless and won't cause any harm.
Thank Zeus for small blessings.

(Note to parakeet: 95% of the signs around -here- are McCain/Palin.
It's those turkeys in Portland who may vote for your BamBam.)


Nobody's vote is meaningless! Even the failure to vote has meaning -- it
means you'll forfeit to others the decision about how you'll be governed.
But voting for anyone has a significant meaning.

Aw, hell, Ed. Don't you remember dissing the crap out of me every year
for my 3rd party voting? You kept saying I was wasting my votes, ya
2-face. sticking tongue out at Ed


If you mean that his candidate probably won't determine who wins, you could
say the same of any vote, including a vote for Obama. Voting is an
individual act in support of democracy, not an individual decision about how
the country will be run.

And a non-religious, non-sectarian "Amen" there, brother.

P.S: Why are you bothering to reply to the known trolls like parakeet?
