the RIPublicans are in trouble.

Tayo-D:
A while back, you agreed with me that the only reason that Obama is where he is today, is because he is Black. Now that you have done a flip-flop, how do you expect me to approach that.

What "flip flop"? If George Bush were black do you think he would have ever been president? Obama is where he is today because he is actually more intelligent than many of those who have put themselves up for president. The fact that he's black was a novelty appeal for an American people hungry for change . . . anything but Bush and his cronies for another 4 years.

Now that reality is dawning that a black man might actually be president of the US, the old racist tendencies are now rearing their heads.

Tayo-D:
Food for thought.

Obama, a black man has locked in over 95% of the Black vote while McCain, a white man has less than 5%.
Obama, a black man and McCain, a white man are equally competing for the White vote.

You call this "food for thought"?   I mean this doesnt require any cerebral gymnastics at all!

- Blacks are only 12% of the US population . . . 95% of that size is nothing!
- Who did you expect blacks to vote for? Blacks have been traditionally democrats since time immemorial, did you see any black face at the RNC? You expect blacks to vote for a traditionally racist party?   This isnt rocket science bro.
- Obama and McCain are "equally" competing only for the sole reason that one is black and the other white. If Hillary Clinton were the one against McCain there'D be no need for debates . . . she'D be leading by 50%.

Again it aint rocket science. Do you people think at all?

Tayo-D:
Obama voted almost 50% with Bush and Biden voted over 50% with Bush. Your point?

Another case in point . . . voting 2% or 804% with Bush is no game changer at all. You dont just oppose the president just so your voting record with Bush will be less than 2%.

Oh and by the way . . . some smart folks just unearthed the fact that McCain LIED on the 2 letters written by Dwight Eisenhower.

Uncle Tayo, sorry but just to inform you that i made a point to stop the pointless, factless and irrelevant back and forth with you and ~Lady~. You both are more empty emotional bluster and no substance.

Here is a case in point - you were very emphatic here proclaiming that Palin was more qualified than Obama on the basis of 18 months as governor of Alaska . . . now Americans know better.

Another case in point -

Tayo-D:
Americans are no fools, and that is why Obama is not leading double digit now despite Bush's failings for the past 8 years.

I think the last poll showing that racism is the sole reason Obama isnt leading by double digits has been exhaustively debated on this section. The debate was made more prominent by your conspicous absence.

You can continue with your usual offpoint comments.

We saw two men tonight:
- one with a rational mind, willing to share ideas, cerebral, prudent with facts and figures and calm enough to lead the world.

- We saw a bush clone, a rabid, rude and condescending attack dog who only has one button - "go".

Sorry Tayo . . . Americans are no fools. McCain can bluster, Bush did same 8 years ago. How many times did Obama have to say "that's not true"? Its a shame that a man has to descend to lie to score a sore point.

Joe Biden just spoke on TV a few minutes ago, if he were to speak exactly the way McCain spoke to night (name dropping) Palin would do well to not show up at the debate.

Discussing "foreign policy strategies" with the Afghan president . . . yeah the name of alqaeda is Mirwais and he's just begining to walk and say "mummy".

Then, asked this week by Couric to discuss her knowledge of foreign relations — in particular, her assertion that Alaska’s proximity to Russia gave her international experience — Palin tripped herself up explaining her interactions with Alaska’s neighbor to the west.

infact na wa o. If this was a boxing fight each man came out looking seriously pummeled.

McCain is being extremely rude . . . Christ!

Jakumo the great!

Nimshi:
You've been banned too?

People shouldn't be banned for expressing opinion; it's not that people're advocating illegal acts.

Silencing dissent isn't just the way.

my brother its nothing new.  
Christians have their threads locked, they are harrassed and banned all the day . . . Heb 12:4 says - we have not yet striven unto blood against sin. When we run out of names to use we'll stop logging in. Until then i will be here to support my brothers and sisters here in the Lord.

Mr. Reindeer, i just had to find a way to log in and say BROTHER . . . WELCOME to the body of Christ and to the fellowship of the saints. The blood is never in short supply, His grace is sufficient for you.

I fear not those who can ban my ID but cannot ban my soul in hell.

Just to make you laugh a little bit, i will remind you of a man like you who could not answer so many questions but understood one important thing . . .

John 9:13They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.

14And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

15Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.

16Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

17They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

18But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.

19And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

20His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

21But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

22These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

23Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

24Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

[size=18pt]25He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.[/size]

My brother, i was once like you . . . but as a child i had just one answer . . . whether Christ be real or not, i know not: one thing i know, once i was blind, destitute nd sick but now i see!
