Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Shouldn't you know where McCain stands on those issues? For you to actually make an informed decision and say,"Obama is the canidate for me," you would have to understand where McCain stood as well.

Or is this a way for you to respond to a question you can't answer?

Did I miss a post where I said I was a McCain supporter? I know exactly where he stand on issues, what I like, what I don't like, and why, but once again, I'm not the one on here pumping my candidate up...you are, and you don't even know why, are don't want to say. I know more about Obama than many of his "supporters".....but who really knows for sure, because he could "change" at anytime.

The body knows what fighters don't: how to protect itself. A neck can only twist so far. Twist it just a hair more and the body says, "Hey, I'll take it from here because you obviously don't know what you're doing... Lie down now, rest, and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's called the knockout mechanism.

McCain= a 3rd term for Bush.

we're not any safer, and the world hates us more than they did 8 years ago, and our economy is in the tank, and the value of our dollar is in the toilet as well. The world economy is leaving us in the dust.

That was a response to NLA. We ended up posting basically the same thing in response to him.

and yes, I'm in favor of fighting against Insurance companies, Pharmacuetical companies and oil companies to put a stop to their obscene profits at the expense of our citizens. That does not make me a socialist.

define obscene profits, and please enlighten me to how it is even legal, let alone morally correct for anyone or any government to restrict the profits of privately held companies operating legally run busineses.

Let me get this straight.
McCain= a 3rd term for Bush = Obama will be good on all of those other issues that I mentioned because he isn't the "status quo"....he is hope and change. Is that about it?

define how it is morally correct to invade and bomb a country that had nothing to do with 9/11

define how it is morally correct that the Katrina victims still remain homeless

define how morally correct it is that families are going bankrupt because of the cost of healthcare

What about the ambulance chasing lawyers driving up medical and drug costs?

Let's focus on a few issues you listed.

1) Pro abortion - that's a legitimate issue, and McCain will tend to nominate supreme court justices that could overturn Roe v Wade. For me, this is a very minor issue, and arguably belongs to the states to decide

2) The environment - Obama will tend to be more against drilling and nuke plants, so this will actually drive up the cost of energy.

3) The cost of oil... See 2) above

4) Outsourcing jobs. Obama supports "insourcing" jobs to illegal Mexican workers living here in the U.S.

5) Iraq, history may show that we should have gotten out of Iraq earlier. However, it's too early to tell yet. I respect cutting and running as a legitimate position.

6) Iran, we can't let those fuckers get nukes, and if they are actively killing our soldiers in Iraq, they deserve to get bombed.

That is all...

I think you forget that most of the Liberals were in favor of invading Iraq as well. Now that it hasn't went the way it was supposed to go, it's easy to pin it on Bush. Not to mention Saddam was quoted as saying he had WMD's only to stir things up.

It isn't.

morally correct for who? This quesiton makes no sense, but when it does I will answer it.

Quote:

Same thing. Morally correct for who?


NLA, you are making a joke of yourself by dodging all questions about your candidate and returning with other mostly random questions. I'll be glad to honestly answer all of your questions, but it would be nice if you could do the same....that is typically how discussion works.

Lars, good points, but you don't have to answer his questions for him. He's the big boy that so proudly stood up for his candidate....don't bail him out.

1) We liberated Iraq from a ruthless tyrant. He violated the '91 peace terms, and was routinely firing at our pilots. The war has been executed poorly, but has improved substantially since following the strategy backed by McCain.

2) Ask the dumbass mayor of New Orleans, and the pathetic governor of Louisiana.

3) Technology has made it possible to bankrupt the entire nation paying for expensive medical treatments. Obama wants you to believe that the Feds will solve your medical problems. It's a pipe dream.

I understand the kind of indoctrination NLA gets living in California. When you hear the media repeating the liberal talking points every day, it starts to seep into your subconscious. I don't know how I managed to escape the indoctrination.
