Actually, I think you have fallen victim to Lucrum's rapier wit. While on the subject of names, it may interest you to know that Lucrum originates from the term Le Crumb. Fascinating, isn't it?
Flawed shit. Here's why. 1992. Toss Perot out and Bush beats Clinton by an 8-10 pt margin. Even with the "it's the economy stupid" mantra Bush wins. 2 out of 3 Perot voters said they would've gone for Bush over Clinton in a 1 on 1 match up. LBJ is the last Democrat to carry the white vote. One need only look at ET. How many white, Americans do you see posting anti-Republican stuff here? Just a couple. Many white traders are like me. Dis-satisfied with Bush? Sure. WAY more money than in 2000? Yep. Do the Democrats offer a plan that'll keep inflation in check? Nope. Or strengthen the dollar? Nope. To end our troop commitment in the Middle East? Nope. Obama just recommended EXPANDING the war in Afghanistan. Does the prospect of Obama sending MORE troops anywhere enthuse me? Nope. Does raising my tax bill turn me on? Nope? So what would COMPELL me to vote for Obama or ANY Democrat? Let's see they want to curtail speculation (my livelihood) they want to raise my taxes and they offer no PLAN to create POSITIVE change. Where's the beef?
Really? Even though Al Qaeda, which attacked Americans on US soil, was spawned in Afghanistan, and where it is growing stronger once again (because Bush diverted his attention from Afghanistan to Iraq)? Really? Even though US commanders in Afghanistan have been appealing for additional troops for months as the insurgency has revived? http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/cacb72f2-5485-11dd-ae9c-000077b07658.html http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/L18660068.htm http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/08/14/AR2007081400950.html
So you favor killing people who had nothing to do with 9/11? Interesting. Last I heard neither Bin Laden nor any of the 19 hijackers were in Afghanistan.
Come on, Pabst. That's blatantly disingenuous. If you were one of the other far Right guys here I'd take that comment at face value. But I know you're smarter than that.
