My post was a direct answer to the direct post...
of Democrat. It was not a blank open-ended statement. And dial it back a notch...it is certainly your right to protest anything any time you want to. Just like it is my right to protest you protesting while men and women are still in harm's way, because you are in effect aiding the enemy. Apparently the Viet Nam experience taught you nothing. Americans protesting in the streets heartened the enemy and when they were about to surrender decided not to, based a lot upon what was happening in the American streets. I believe that the protesting in that war prolonged the war and cost more American lives. Hanoi Jane should have been tried for treason. That being said...lessons were not learned and the protestors are doing the exact same thing now. Exercising the very right bought for them by shedding of American military blood. And I still say common courtesy should keep people out of the streets and off the TV until the military are home safe. But it just proves the same thing to me over and over...the selfISHhness of the protestors vs. the selfLESSness of the military. They continue to put it all on the line for your right to protest anything you want to protest...it is up to YOU to decide where and when that is appropriate, and it is up to you to take the heat for same. It is up to me and others like me (in my opinion) to apply that heat. Go ahead and do whatever your conscience or lack thereof moves you to do. But do not expect those of a different mind not to protest the protest.
respectfully
let's keep away from the "I heard" stuff. There is enough misinformation already without adding to it with stuff that can't be verified. Let's stick to the facts.
What, may I respectfully ask, does this prove?
Lebanon and Israel have a long and colourful history of conflict.  I am not quite sure what this letter is meant to prove.  Hezbollah has used Lebanese residential areas to set up their missles and attack bases. Israel retaliates for the abduction of their people.  But first, they drop leaflets, warning civilians to leave.  Really, quite a first for this sort of thing.  I'm very sorry, but I, for one, am bloody tired of Israel being made the aggressor here.  Hamas and Hezbollah have pounded them nearly to oblivion and all you can worry about is a letter from the Lebanese?!  I am astounded. 
Respectfully....I don't agree...
A radical socialist (Obama) and a majority democratic congress who leans socialist are a mixture that does not bode well for the country. Add to that money men behind him who are radical socialists...now there is change I am not the least bit interested in. Not getting worked up...but definitely concerned.
I would respectfully ask for the same consideration.

I respectfully disagree s/m
and I say respectfully because apparently you are a sister TTer (I'm an ex TTer).  I think McCain will win by hook or crook.  Anyway, the rabid Republicans outnumber the rabid Democrats on the forums in which I participate so if I'm correct, McCain won't have to restort to "crook."
Respectfully to Kaydie

I think you  have already decided for whom you are going to vote.  Otherwise why keep posting internet gossip about Obama.  I've already posted my objections to him and that can be summed up in 1 word, preacher WRIGHT.  I struggled with that for a very long time and finally decided I would take a chance on that, a KNOWN fact, enough to make me afraid of where we're headed under his administration without adding anything to it.


As for the place of Obama's birth and his birth certificate....do you REALLY believe if he wasn't eligible to run for the presidency the McCain campaign would not have obtained absolute proof of that???  Get real, of course they would.  So as for me...no problem with his birth certificate.


As for his past associations...of course he has associated with shady characters as has McCain.  McCain's Keating 5 was one.  Do you realize he is the ONLY senator who has been rebuked by the Senate Ethic Committee??? That's quite a record.


Obama commercials...I don't know where you are but the one that plays over and over here in Arkansas is HILARIOUS.  I can't tell you the content of the ad because both my husband and I are laughing so  hard. It plays often and we welcome the comedy.   It shows McCain and his expressions during the debate.  At the end is McCain speaking by himself FOR Obama when he says, "I've voted with the president over 90% of the time, more than even some of my party colleagues."  That in MCCAIN's own words tells me all I need to know about him.  I haven't agreed with Bush on anything since 9/11 when he stood up and made his speech....I became a Republican that day but it sure didn't last long.  McCain will bring us more of the same, maybe even worse.  So if you've done well the past 8 years and want to continue on that downhill path, by all means vote for McCain.  I'm not sure at all that we will like Obama's "change" but I'll take a chance on him before I'll vote FOR McCain.


Funny I have watched all of the debates and speeches and parts of speeches until I'm sick of it.  I have yet to hear Obama come close to what I would consider "playing the race card."  What I did hear was Palin "he isn't like the rest of us."  If that wasn't the race card I don't know what it was.  How could Obama possibly play the race card when he is half and half and raised by his WHITE grandmother, the one he says shaped him and I believe him on that.


Nov. 4 can't come fast enough to suit me.  Then I guess we can start blaming Democrats/Republicans for our continued downhill course.  What we lazy Americans, ALL of us, need to do is get off our lazy butts and do something that will effectively change the course of our country.


I respectfully request
that you not infer that I am not a Christian.  I am certainly aware of David and the many other Biblical people.  If memory serves me correctly Saul (Paul) was on his way down to Damascus breathing fire in order that he might persecute some more Christians. 
Respectfully this is the difference between sm
CChristianity and other religions. If you go to the graves of other religious "leaders" the grave will hold bones and dust. The tomb for Jesus is empty because he has arose and is alive forever more. There is a difference between religion and salvation and even some Christian denominations are nothing more than religion and there is no salvation or rerepentence to it. Not all those professing to be Christians are going to be in heaven either. Only those washed in the blood of Jesus Christ with their sins forgiven will be there.
Respectfully....I don't know the time frame in which...
these children died. Yes, it is horrible, and yes, the parents responsible for the deaths should be held accountable. But I don't think the answer to that is the murder of 1.2 million babies a year because one of them might be abused. Who are we to make that decision? Why not leave THAT choice up to God?

And I beg to differ...there is absolutely nothing humane about abortion.
I respectfully suggest to you that McCain
Your mistrust is based on the "Who is the REAL Obama" smear campaign. My mistrust of McCain is based on the very fact that I DO know McCain...his record and his campaign have clearly demonstrated he cannot be trust with MY country.
may I refresh your memory... respectfully...
George Bush had the same absence of checks and balances in his favor.

Didn't really work for us, right? Let's see how it works swingin' this way.
I respectfully disagree on one point you made:

*...most of us on the liberal board do not buy *impending doom* theory that you live by.*


I personally will be fearful of *impending doom* for the next 3 years.  If I/we can get through that, then I'll be able to relax (a little) as hopefully more Americans will come to their senses.


I do believe that there is a direct

response to the OP with the title of "You're Whack."  The inside message said, "Who cares? So what? Get a life."


Seriously...if you have nothing constructive to add, why waste your time responding with that? 


I guess I just don't get why some of you hate Christians so much?  I admit that there are those who try and force their religion upon others.  I don't do that.  If someone doesn't want to believe in what I do, like my husband, I don't push my views on him.  However, he doesn't ridicule me for believing either. 


It just seems like every time someone mentions something about religion the bashing and name calling, etc. starts.  I'm beginning to think that maybe Christians should be placed on the hate crime list because it sure sounds like a lot of people hate us.


Can someone direct me to a site (sm)

that states the candidates' detailed respective platforms at a glance? I've watched most of the debates, as much as I can anyhow,  but I've not been able glean and distinguish a lot of specifics. 


I'm in FL and vote on Tuesday.  Believe it or not, I am undecided.  I liked Dennis, but he pulled out today and probably wouldn't have voted for him... won't go into why, but I'm sure I don't have to :-)


Dennis says to go Obama.... not sure if I want to.  What I want is to have a Dem president.  I like Edwards...


My demographic falls into Hilary's (female 45 and over lol).


Input appreciated. 


that was a direct quote from

Ronald Reagan.  How SHAMEFUL that you make fun of a dead man and one with Alzheimer's to boot.  I am appalled at your lack of manners.


 


I believe this is a direct quote from big O
'The buck stops here.'
Respectfully, John Edwards practically bankrupt his state with malpractice lawsuits. SM
He didn't even carry  his own state in the election.  That should tell you something. 
You know, I hate hypocrisy. You want to direct me
back to God's Word?

When you can show me in God's Word where He approves of what Osambo approves, then we can talk.

Let's talk abortion, gay marriage, taxes, lying, cheating, subversion of government, indoctrination of preschoolers, redefining marriage, etc., a whole litany of what Osambo stands for and compare it to God Almighty's Word.

I warn you in advance. You are up against an adversary you do not want to tackle with because you are ill prepared to defend your comments and beliefs in the light of Scripture.

Ready to go for it, old girl?

Please direct me to the bible verse where it is written
about the right to bear arms. I missed this.

"They are no more pro war than God is. They do believe in the right to bear arms..."
Terrible debate! Jim was not direct or specific enough in his ...sm
questions and allowed too much of the same old retoric from both candidates.
You give me a direct answer. You dodge it like he does.
How can he give 95% of AMericans a tax cut if 30-40% of Americans pay no federal income taxes. Either he is lying about the 95%, or he is going to use refundable tax credits. How else can he do it? PLEASE, PLEASE, explain that to me. If I am wrong, all you have to do is explain to me HOW he is going to give tax cuts to 95% of people, 30-40% of whom DO NOT PAY federal income taxes, wITHOUT cutting them a check. Please, please explain that to me.

Sam understands the basic principles of socialism and Marxism just fine. Most of which Mr Obama taught me in his books and associations. Which you are willing to ignore.

So please...very simply. Explain to me how he is going to give tax breaks or cuts to 95% of Americans if 30-40% of that group don't pay taxes. You said yourself, he can't. So either he is lying about the 95%...or he is going to cut that 30-40% a check.

PLEASE explain his tax plan to me since you are such an expert on it. HOW is he going to do it without cutting checks? HOW?
Are you not able to answer a simple direct question?
It's obviously over your head.
Don't want to direct quote, can't stand to watch it again sm
The point being, cutting unnecessary procedures to seniors who "would not get any better anyway." I was so fuming angry that I would like everyone to hear it, but I for one could not stand watching it again. We are bailing out all these losers and he's going to deny our seniors. If he touches their benefits, I will march on Washington. Most of them paid their way all their lives and now they're being "cut" because he thinks it's frivalous as they "wouldn't get any better anyway." Who the blazes is he to make that decision???? Everyone deserves a choice of care, even Gramma and Grampa. I don't care how old they are!
Yeah, direct me to some homosexual "scientific"

site.  Believe me, if that were the case, it would be well publicized, especially in the New York Times.


Don't you even know that the first "scientists" who "came out" with a gay gene were homosexuals?  You don't think they have an agenda, my dear?


Nan-ism post was in direct reply/rebuttal to the two posts above it.

Surely you would agree that when accused of something we should have a chance for rebuttal? And that our rebuttal would surely include proof/evidence of why we took a particular stand?  Would you deny the liberal board that right?  SOME of us may be tolerant (or as Nan put it, "sissies") but some of us are very capable of speaking up for ourselves.


I have read Nan on this board (and others as well) for almost two years so I think I have a pretty fair grasp of her opinion and style of posting.


Feel free to direct your concerns to the Administrator. sm
You can reach the adminstrator at Admin@MTStars.com.  As far as deleting, since the incident of several weeks ago, I have made a concerted effort on BOTH boards to keep the bashing to a minimum. 
Hardly. Consorting with vs direct quote? Supports succession
The quote thing, whether SP or her husband is not the only example of the problems SP will be facing once the convention is over and the campaign goes into high gear. So far, this morning, you have managed to dodge every single effort to elicit a response to SP's OWN words. Dismiss the pastor, but not her own preaching on video. That just won't fade away no matter how much spin you are able to produce. These are land mines waiting for detonation.

With regard to the "got not use for America's damned institutions" and support of succession question, these issues will not play well for yer in terms of country first, in the context of ethics (can't practice what is preached) and when it comes to change versus same old stuff.

Before pronoucing this as a nonissue, suppose we give this a little time to play out in the political arena? Your guilt by association campaign has already run its course, and Obama managed to clench the nomination. In the light of the blaring negative publicity that will be issuing forth in the weeks to come with SP being the newest rock star on the block, how much political mileage do you really think that empty tank is going to give you?
Still waiting for a direct answer to a simple question.
nm
The huge emphasis on tomorrow is in direct proportion to
Finally. A President we can all be PROUD of, instead of hide-your-head-in-a-bag EMBARRASSED.
Paying close attention. Sidestepping direct debate.

Must also be hard for some people to give direct answers after making a statement like that.

Annan Urges U.S.-Iran Direct Talks in Atomic Dispute (Update3)

May 12 (Bloomberg) -- United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan today said the U.S. needs to follow up on Iranian offers of direct negotiations in order to resolve peacefully their dispute over the Islamic Republic's nuclear program.


``I've asked all sides to lower their rhetoric and intensify their diplomatic efforts to find a solution,'' Annan said at a briefing in Vienna. ``I think it's important that the United States comes to the table.''


The U.S. has let French, German and U.K. diplomats lead talks with Iran over the atomic dispute. Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, at a meeting of the Developing Eight group of Islamic countries in Indonesia, said Iran is ready for direct talks and will comply with any UN decision on its atomic program based on international rules. A U.S. State Department spokesman in Vienna declined to comment.


The U.K. and France, backed by the U.S., have proposed a resolution under Chapter 7 of the United Nations charter to compel Iran to stop its nuclear work. A Chapter 7 resolution can invoke economic sanctions or military force against ``any threat to the peace'' of other countries. Iran says it's developing nuclear technology to generate power, while the U.S. and European countries accuse Iran of trying to develop atomic weapons.


China and Russia, veto-wielding members of the Security Council, oppose a Chapter 7 resolution for Iran.


Iran's Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency said he didn't have any information about an Agence France-Presse report that inspectors found traces of highly enriched uranium in his country.


Uranium Particles


``I haven't been informed of any such findings,'' Aliasghar Soltanieh said in a telephone interview.


Particles of weapons-grade uranium came from sample swipes that International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors took at the Lavizan-Shian site in Tehran, where a physics research center was dismantled and topsoil removed in 2004 after suspicions were raised about activities there, AFP said.


The IAEA reported to the Security Council on April 28 that inspectors took environmental samples at suspected nuclear sites in their most recent visit to Iran. The samples were to undergo testing for uranium particles at IAEA laboratories. IAEA spokespeople declined to comment.


The Iranians won't ``put everything on the table'' until the U.S. joins the European-led negotiations, Annan said. Negotiations should be around a ``comprehensive package'' including economic and regional security concerns, he said.


`Engaged in Dialogue'


Annan's call for direct talks between Iran and the U.S. followed those of Mohamed ElBaradei, director general of the IAEA. ``Once we get to security issues, the U.S. should be engaged in the dialogue,'' ElBaradei said March 8.


The Security Council's five permanent members plus Germany will meet in London May 19 to consider new incentives for Iran to renounce its atomic program, AFP reported, citing unidentified diplomats. The permanent five are the U.S., U.K., France, Russia and China.


The U.S. and Iran broke off diplomatic relations in 1979 after Islamic revolutionaries overthrew the government of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and kept 52 Americans hostage for 444 days.
