Re: Election discussion thread. Man, FOX is getting desperate. They had that I FART A LOT, Ann Coulter on yesterday talking about how Obama is a dirtbag for having dinner with Khalid Rashidi, yet McCain's group giving half a mil is cool since the money was supposed to be used to help run Palestinian elections. She was talking in circles and made no sense. It's awesome. I also love how they are blaming the media for the disparity in poll projections, since McCain didn't get a fair shake, and all. Delusional.
Re: McCain picks Palin (and other election discussion) The fatal flaw, of course, is that there is no evidence he WOULD choose "far left ACLU-oriented" judges. Everyone thought he would use the Harvard Law Review to advance an African-American "cause" and it just never materialized. Obama is simply NOT a polarizing figure (though some sure try hard to paint him that way...unsuccessfully).
Re: Election discussion thread. I was fortunate enough to see this live on CNN yesterday: http://crooksandliars.com/david-neiwert ... -name-obam Haven't laughed that hard watching a news channel in a long time.
Re: Election discussion thread. Wow...I missed that one. I actually enjoyed seeing Shepard Smith on Fox News taking "Joe the Plumber" to task when the knucklehead got caught on camera agreeing with a "journalist" who stated that a vote for Obama means "Death to Israel".

Re: Election discussion thread. Anybody have a copy of his birth certificate? There is a rumor going around he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii. Just curious if this was a bogus rumor. Ike
Re: Election discussion thread. I am looking forward to Nov. 4th. Have to get some sleep though. Suppose to head out to NC to volunteer. Went last weekend, and it was a lot of fun.

Re: Election discussion thread. Hey guys, do your american birth certificate really look like that ? With the mother & th father "race" on it ? Skin color is not race. It's climatic adaptation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_genetics
Re: Election discussion thread. I've got a Hawaii birth cert circa 1973 and it's got parent's race on there. It also has way more info on it than the one above, too.

Re: Election discussion thread. Well, first of all, even though race is a social construct, I don't think anyone ever considered "African" to be a race. It's not even a nationality. Secondly, even though I wasn't around then, in the early 1960s I would have expected a word like "Negro" to be used instead. However, I realize that the information on these birth certificates is the result of an actual human being typing and not a pre-defined check box on a computer screen, the way it's probably done nowadays.
Re: Election discussion thread. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/deadlin ... johnmccain Palin caught out by a prank caller from a Canadian radio station- absolutly painful to listen to! I really do feel sorry for her, but then it passes and I think she gets what she deserves for being so stupid. What do people think? it is a bit of a low blow- but I guess it makes up for people being so easy on her in the debates and letting people go believing she really isnt that stupid- LOL- "I love zee documentary zey made of your life: Nalin' Palin." And she still didnt get it....
Re: Election discussion thread. These Canadian DJs have a lot to learn about the art of prank calling.
Re: Election discussion thread. The funniest thing is: its a pretty well known fact that Sarkozy cant speak english.
