Is this the Thursday night drinking thread?

Every abuse ought to be reformed, unless the reform is more dangerous than the abuse itself.

An immediate indictment on what could be the Obama administration.

I think I killed the last thread.

Oops.

So, I bought some ammo the otehr day.

Fine line between paranoia and preparedness. :-)

Live nude thieves!

Finally! An open thread!

I wonder how many of the people who have been poo-pooing the [alleged] level of hate and vitriol at the McCain rallies are gonna line up and shell out their money to see people slowly and horribly mutilated and tortured to death in Saw V ?

I see your all down here in the dead thread discussing strategies for winning moonbats over to McCain so here's how I switched my two local nutcases to our side. First, I patiently listened to their insane theories about how Bush brought down the World Trade Center or imprisoned millions of innocent at Gitmo or eavesdropped on everyone's phone conversations, nod approvingly, and say uh-huh.(trust me this is the hardest part of the plan. I threw up little in my mouth during this stage.) Next, tell them the only reason Bush got away with their favorite conspiracy is because the Republicans controlled both Congress and the White House. Then remind them that if Barack wins Democrats will control both the WH and Congress and Obama will be able to get away with the same stuff Bush got away with. Explain to them that both parties are equally corrupt and that the only way to stop the corruption is to have congress controlled by one party and the WH by the other. Finally, tell them that Barack will try to to pull [their favorite conspiracy theory here] since he'll have a Democratic congress to enable him.
I know it's stupid but it's how moonbats think and I've used this line of argument to convince 2 of them to vote McCain.

I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: 'O Lord, make my enemies ridiculous.' And God granted it. -also Voltaire

re: #8 Neo Con since 9-11

The scary thing is, you're right.

I had to tell several friends who are getting their survival gear ready that even if BHO wins, there will still be many GOP Reps and Senators--and they will block his legislation/edict the same way the Dems killed bills meant to reform Freddie and Fannie--by using rules of parliamentary procedure to kill bills in committee.

He won't be that much of a dictator.

re: #14 Intrepid

The most people who will vote for BHO will be aging baby boomers afflicted with white guilt. Fewer youths will vote for him than many think.

Charles,

I left a comment/question for you at #561 on the Newsweek thread. Would love your response.

Nope, it's the Friday Morning drinking thread.

My neighbor is a Vietnamese woman that escaped Communism in the Boat Lift. Anyone remember that?
Anyway, she is so angry. She told me she left Viet Nam to get away from Communism and Socialism and doesn't want to see it in America brought on by Barack Husien Obama.
Ask anyone that lived under Communism who they'd vote for.

NObama!

re: #14 Intrepid

I must be getting cynical in my middle age, but every election seems like Groundhog Day:

"the youth vote."

"the undecided voter."

"change / reform."

"THIS is the most important election in US history."

yada, yada

Possibly the weirdest movie I ever saw.

re: #16 calcajun

The most people who will vote for BHO will be aging baby boomers afflicted with white guilt. Fewer youths will vote for him than many think.

And in this group he will lose. Obama's GOTV campaign was their hope, and they've done well, but in the end, they will lose.

The established voters are middle age and older. The youth vote has always been touted as a "game changer" by the dems, but this group has always under performed.

re: #21 IslandLibertarian

ALL of the Vietamese that I know are staunch conservatives. I even get conservative e-mails forwarded to me that have 40-50 Vietnamese names/e-mail addys on them.

re: #19 middlecon

Intersting theory calcajun why would you think that? General indifference?

Economics. They know that they are the beast of burden for the bail outs and all the aging boomers about to bust Social Security.

Some of the stats I saw (today...somewhere..it's midnight and the brain hurts) show that not that huge a margin of the youth vote favors BHO, and in the south and southwest, it leans to McCain.

From just anecdotal evidence it seems the under 25 vote is WAY in favor of Obama.

I've read many times that Obama has a massive well-funded organization/ground game/GOTV apparatus. Is this not true, or in the end, will it not make the decisive difference?

re: #20 Opilio

Nope, it's the Friday Morning drinking thread.

In my hometown of NOLA, the bars do NOT close. Many fire up the grill about 5 am and start serving eggs and sausages. The words "Last orders" are only ever shouted at midnight on Mardi Gras.

Does anyone here disagree with the premise that Obama is indeed ahead in this election and McCain is the underdog?

If not what would be the evidence that McCain is the favorite?

re: #27 middlecon

"The only one I haven't heard this year is 'Year of the woman' which was an annual event every year for about 15 years."

Well, I'll bet that it was in the rotation, but yanked when Hillary didn't get the nod.

re: #31 middlecon

From just anecdotal evidence it seems the under 25 vote is WAY in favor of Obama.

But from what region? The stats I saw today showed an advantage only in certain geographical areas, and even then by only a few points.

LOL I know what you mean. I have a troofer BIL who saw my McCain sticker sitting on my desk. I think he really is going to hold his nose & vote for McCain but he was worried about me and I had to get the whole lecture again...New World Order, Steel doesn't melt, etc., etc., etc.

EVERYBODY...

Just wanted to thank you ALL for the wonderful and supportive responses you gave on my Germantown yard sign fiasco. I'm still so angry I could spit nails, but you all helped to temper my temper! Thanks!

We'll know in 11 days, eh? All you can do is what you can do, my friend.
Possibly the most disturbing conversations I have had lately are with my very conservative (R) friends whose opinions I respect. They say that they want Obama to be Pres. because they think they see some genuine icebergs ahead for the Ship of State, and they want him on the bridge when it hits, and not John M.

I dunno. But, then I already voted.

re: #34 middlecon

I disagree on the basis that we haven't had the election yet.

If not what would be the evidence that McCain is the favorite?

Well, he should be the underdog, by a wide margin, if you think that the average Amercian so hates ChimpyMcBushitler that there is no way in hell they are going to vote (R). Obama should be sailing away with this election. If you believe current polling data, seems pretty clsoe, so that is good for McCain.

/ OK, so I'm a bit of an optimist.

re: #34 middlecon

Does anyone here disagree with the premise that Obama is indeed ahead in this election and McCain is the underdog?

I posted this a couple days ago and I believe it explains why the polls incorrectly explain why Obama seems ahead

Much speculation has been made here about why the polls are incorrectly favoring Obama including zombie's excellent essay and many other's comments. I would just like to add $.02
The first question pollster's want answered is the party affiliation of the person being interviewed. They discover this either by looking at voter registration or directly asking during the phone call. This roughly breaks down 36% Democrat, 27% Republican, 24% independent, 13% other/undecided.
Next the pollster wants to know who the individual is planning voting for.
Finally, the statisticians weigh the responses based on how many respondents belong too each party. Example.
Out of the 100 Democrats 90 say they are voting for Obama and 10 for McCain so the pollster multiplies 90 by 36% (the percentage of Democrats the believe are in the country) and gets 3240 for Obama. Then they multiply 10 by 36% and get 360 for McCain.
They do the same for the Republicans. Out of 100 Republicans 90 are pro-McCain and 10 are for Obama. 90 times 27% (the estimated number of Republicans) of equals 2430 for McCain. 10 times 27% means 270 for Obama
For this example lets say the independents break evenly so it's 50 out of 100 votes for each. 50 times 24% is 1200 for each. Also assume the undecided remain undecided.
Then the polling company adds all the numbers for each candidate and divides by 100.
So for Obama 3240+270+1200=4710. 4710/100=47.1%.
For McCain 360+2430+1200=3990. 3990/100=39.9%
Voila 7.2% Obama lead. Normally this formula works pretty well, however there are at least three things wrong with it this election cycle. First is operation chaos wildly exaggerates the number of registered Democrats. Second, the PUMAs, they still consider themselves Democrats and they too inflate the (D) numbers and tilt the numbers toward the Democrat candidate, Obama, despite the fact that most of the 5 million of them would crawl over broken glass to vote against him. The final problem is with one of the assumptions I made to simplify the math, namely that undecided/independents would break evenly, so far this year the independents have broken decisively against Obama.

re: #43 MandyManners

Are you really serious with this question? Are you not aware that President Bush is so unpopular? Even in people without severe BDS the guy is not a favorite of many.

People see Obama as a positive change from Bush, as much as people on this site think that is crazy that is just the way it is.

I don't know if the polling is correct or not, but with a sitting president as unpopular as Bush its not hard to see why Obama is in a good position.

As long as the GOP holds 41 Senate seat, the Dems (theoretically) can do anything. On the other hand, I'm sure they'll throw the filibuster rule under the bus as soon as they need to.

Much has been written about the unreliability of the polls. As they are, the race is very close.

See, you're falling into a trap. You're thinking logically, and you're projecting that logic onto all your fellow citizens / voters. I think that is a mistake. A lot of people who vote, do not think, or at least do not think rationally.

Anecdotal evidence warning:

I personally know people, who live their lives under "conservative values," but they don't know, or realize it. Yet, they vote Democrat. It's like a programmed response, Pavlov, etc.

I don't understand it, either, nor can I explain it, either. But, it is observable, so I do not deny it exists.

Oh I agree that has been given a pass and Palin is hated just as much as Bush is...PDS is also very real.

But really do you deny that Bush's unpopularity doesn't have anything to do with Obama's popularity?

I think its very illogical to totally write off the possibility.

I agree with you in so far as that is what they think.

Someone posted earlier tonight that NYT stock is now junk.

re: #112 Intrepid

Yet John McCain is not George Bush.

You are drinking the kool-aid to believe otherwise!

(you are agreeing with the MSM!)

I'm already sold solid McCain vote here...I'm just trying to interpet what the rest of the electorate is thinking. We can't just ignore that Bush has nothing to do with Obama's possible presidency, merely because McCain is not Bush.

Pardon me for a moment....

Your little girl is walking? I'll never forget when The Kid started. I wanted to wrap him in bubble-wrap.

We've already lived through the Little Man starting to walk...HRS is a bit more cautious (not hard to accomplish) So, I haven't broken out the bubble wrap yet.......yet

Had a rather interesting discussion last week at a bar in Zurich. It was completely empty (yeah a little early in the day but what can you do) except for two bar tenders. One was a gentleman from Bosnia and the other was a woman from Jerusalem.

Out of nowhere the very nice man asks my friend and I who we are going to vote for in the election. Not taking that bait my friend answered the question by asking what his thoughts on the election were. He went off on Bush and McCain and said that Obama was the one. The woman then said that she actually didn't think the Bush presidency was that bad and he looked at her like she had three heads. She said she didn't trust Obama to protect Israel and that therefor McCain was her man. He politely mumbled to himself because he just could not believe what he was hearing from his coworker.

The two of us politely ordered another round and left it at that. Wasn't expecting that when all we were doing was trying to get our drink on at 5 in the afternoon.

Why?

re: #119 Intrepid

Why?

Why because the most people that are voting (not the 30% solid red or the 30% solid blue) generally don't like Bush, therefore they are looking to go in a different direction, McCain being a member of the same party as Bush doesn't seem like a different enough direction.

Keeping with your business news, I have some delicious business news I'm enjoying myself, and that I'd like to share.

In 1997, Michael Dell was asked what he would do if he were the CEO of Apple Computers (keep in mind that Apple and its stock were doing poorly at that point, and the first iMac was still about a year away). His response was, "I’d shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders."

So, where are Apple and Dell 11 years later at the end of FY2008?

Apple's total cash on hand: $24,490,000,000 ($24.49 billion)

Dell's total market capitalization (that is, the total value of Dell's stock) at closing on 10/23/08: $23,500,000,000 ($23.5 billion)

In short, Apple is now at a point where it could buy all of Dell's stock with just the cash it has on hand!

I'm not bashing President Bush, I am a Bush supporter, seriously, I know most of you think of me as a 'moby', but its not true.

I just think the rest of the country more than bashes President Bush, they just flat out don't like the guy, and I can't see how its somehow irrelevant to the 2008 election.

Personally I think the election rides on the battleground states. Pennsyvlania, Ohio, Florida, Virginia, same ones as 2004 if McCain can pull out most of those he wins :)

Lizards- I just want to share with you that GOP organizations in various ACORN infested states ARE taking this issue very seriously and are actively engaged in confronting the problem.

I've been called to duty to participate in such an effort, and my time here will be scarce. But if we are successful, ACORN will have a big headache come election day and in the fallout.

You can help too. Contact your local GOP offices and see what help they need. All GOP offices will need help with the GOTV (Get Out The Vote) effort. Even a few hours can make a big difference.

In fact I posted that I support President Bush, voted for him twice and am proud of those votes.

He's unpopular, is that not fact?

I never said McCain can't win, again find the quotes. If he wins Pennsylvania, Ohio, Florida, Virginia he can indeed win. Its not that far fetched, but he is indeed the underdog.

I save that particular quip for those who deserve it.

re: #199 MandyManners

I have a hard time doing it. I'm more prone to ripping off someone's head.

I don't know if that was an insult or a compliment but it was fun conversing this morning and good night to the lizards

Might have been the dioxin in A. O. Then there was the brake fluid sold as cooking oil.

I'm gonna' lie down again. Maybe sleep will happen. Good night!

Meet Skippy.

Velkom, ladies & gentlemen we do hope you enjoy your short trip through the 2008' Electoral Divide. Sit back and enjoy the ride -

A record 7.47 million Michiganians are registered to vote in the Nov. 4 general election, state officials announced Wednesday....

That’s a 4.6 percent jump from January and represents a whopping 98 percent of the state’s voting age population....

...and statistically deserves its own dedicated series of episodes somewhere in the Outer Limits.

That's awesome! There are still people perpetuating fraud on their own too, or with other organizations. I'll be working overtime to stop them. Wish me luck.

We all owe you for your efforts. Thank you.

re: #230 aboo-Hoo-Hoo

I thought that was fishy, but I guess it is legit.

Michigan's all-time turnout record was set in the presidential election of 2004, when 4.8 million people voted. Michigan had 7.18 million voters registered to participate in the Nov. 7 election.

WOW, that's a hell of a lot of people trying to get out of jury duty...

re: #239 freedombilly

Thanks.

I've been angry for weeks at the msm, the fraud, the democrats. When my political Captain called me, I felt I'd found the perfect way to channel that anger. I'm not going to let them get away with raping the electorate and Constitution like this.

re: #193 LeePro

'night, y'all.

really, really.

LeePro, if you're still out there, I figured one work-around. Click on your own avatar, and then click on "Recent Comments" in the box. That should give you a new page with your most recent comments, and the full web links are there. I see the same web address you do on the regular comments, BTW.

And good work in Germantown! I mean, how dare they? I'm in the "more red" part of TN (East!), but we get our share of shenanigans, too...

I sense a disturbance in the fruitcup.

Good morning, afternoon, evening *everyone*!™

I sense a disturbance in the fruitcup.

I am always disturbed (by Liberals and other purveyors of nonsense), but I emphasize... I am not a FRUIT.

Yum! Fruit cup. The perfect dessert to a meal of grilled pork chops.

Cherries are always in season at LGF!
