Doubt his work as an engineer gave him any reason to be here in a official capacity. I think he just got bored of arguing with his intellectual inferiors.

Never to return... His coalition is dead. Carter will look better in history's eye.........Well, it's true.Kaneman, I really think you're gonna have to come up with a stronger argument than this. Tea parties? Tiny attention seeking niche voting block. Every advance they make is marred by the latest racist and/or militant statement from one of its "leaders." I'd say Obama, with all his faults, still comes out ahead when we look at all the tea party's faults. Not gonna get him thrown out of office before they shoot themselves in the foot, figuratively, of course. Black Panthers? Nonstarter. Lunatic fringe is lunatic fringe. If Pastor "God DAAAAAMMMMNNN America" didn't keep Obama out of office, the Panthers surely won't get him thrown out. Come election time, forgotten. BP? That's looking to be the gift that keeps on giving, for several terms to come. Put a Republican in office and see the problem get even worse. Not gonna get Obama thrown out. Healthcare is not gonna get Obama thrown out of office. Arizona? I think your prediction is way off here. In the fullness of time, Arizona is just gonna look worse and worse until its nasty little tantrum of a law gets taken off the books. NASA's new mission? It's a toothless PR stunt, and toothless PR stunts don't get anyone thrown out of office. The two wars? How exactly are they gonna get Obama thrown out of office? You see Sarah Palin running on a "Cut & Run" platform? The Economy? This here is prolly your best argument of the bunch, prolly worth all the others put together plus a sex scandal. Thing is, in order to defeat Obama on this one, the opposition is gonna have to come of with actual ideas other than "the Bush Tax cuts!" A broken base? Huh? So really you got one solid debacle here and 9 nonstarters, but even if all of these things could be turned into solid anti-Obama talking points in the upcoming election, the opposition are missing one kinda important thing: a single viable candidate. Sarah is unelectable to national office. Yes, the base loves her, she's got the Republicans-that-Vote-with-their-Dicks vote sewn up, but other than that? Americans actually believe she said "I can see Russia from my house!" (Just so you know: she didn't, that was Tina Fey.) Mitt Romney will never, ever be President, and he will poison any ticket that takes him on as VP. The religious right would sooner have their daughters marry Muslims than elect a Mormon. There's a reason he won election in one of the most liberal states in the Union. Maybe, just maybe, if things continue to get exponentially worse on all fronts over the next 2 years, a Grayson/Paul ticket could capture the imagination of enough folk from left and right to mean something, but barring that, as far as I can see: ya got nothin'. HKCavalier Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

Quote:Originally posted by QuestionableQuestionality: I'm going to agree with Kaneman on this. I was just posting in the other thread about not underestimating Palin. Now I do not think she will run, but I do believe she will sway many people. The proof is in the early primaries.
Quote:All the other points Kaneman was making don't seem that important taken one by one, however when this is all accumulated I fear it will have a huge effect against us in 2012. I think the meat of what Kaneman is saying is already showing up in every poll I have read. So, to just dismiss it as a small group is naive and detrimental to our cause. What we should be doing is putting pressure on Obama to return to the center. I believe he is way too left and that is not what I voted for.

RiverKaney, did you think for a moment that I don't really care how many internet "enemies" I have? It concerns me even less when at least 5 of those "enemies" are one person, who is utterly powerless to touch me in any way, shape, or form. Or did that just not ever occur to you? Go ahead; be my enemy. Let it consume your life. Follow me around posting "but your gay" after every single thing I say, because that absolutely makes you seem rational and reasonable. Go for it. Knock yourself right out. What are you going to do about it? What CAN you do about it? Shun me? AURaptor's Greatest Hits: Friday, May 28, 2010 - 20:32 To AnthonyT: Go fuck yourself.

Every advance in human life, every scrap of knowledge and wisdom and decency we have has been torn by one side from the teeth of the other. Every little increase in human freedom has been fought over ferociously between those who want us to know more and be wiser and stronger and those who want us to obey and be humble and submit."
