I've always been a McCain fan and if he can keep it together, he's
pretty viable as an alternative.
I also have a lot of respect for McCain. *His only drawback is 25 years
in the Senate.

Eisboch

Not me. *He has a short fuse and he carries many liberal views, including
wanting to do away with waterboarding the captured terrorists, even
though even 30 seconds of doing so to high profile terrorists resulted in
tremendous information.

As you said, he is also long in the tooth and represents the same old
same old.

The Republicans did not offer any true conservative candidates this
election.

Being in favor of torture is a conservative view?

No wonder I don't like conservatives.

Serious question. I don't know much about waterboarding. *Does it leave any
lasting physical or physiological effects?- Hide quoted text -

Probably about like when I was a toddler and my swim mask filled up
with water. My mom jumped in the pool and pulled me out, I almost
drowned but was revived. I remember because she ruined her watch on
our vacation to California. The next vacation was to Florida, I bought
a new swim mask soon after we got off the plane.. ;) The same mask
my mom soon after "lost" while me and dad were out on the Ducks;)

Nope. It has proven to be effective within 30 seconds and has resulted in
solid information that resulted in stopping future terrorist attacks.

Torture? Nope.........but very effective according to reports on the use
of this technique on captured terrorists.


According to this (if true) we've used the technique 3 times since 9/11.

I've done some quick reading via Google and so far all I've found is
opinions that there can be lasting effects.

The conservatives who support waterboard don't give a damn about that,
and, of course, they are in denial about its impact, too.

I'd be happy to see waterboarding approved right after the entire Bush
and Cheney families subject themselves to it and tell us it is no biggie.

The Democrats!

Entire article can read at
http://www.washingtontimes.com/apps/...D=/20071123/NA....

Democrats like to define themselves as the party of poor and
middle-income Americans, but a new study says they now represent the
majority of the nation's wealthiest congressional districts.

In a state-by-state, district-by-district comparison of wealth
concentrations based on Internal Revenue Service income data,
Michael Franc, vice president of government relations at the
Heritage Foundation, found that the majority of the nation's
wealthiest congressional jurisdictions were represented by
Democrats.

He also found that more than half of the wealthiest households were
concentrated in the 18 states where Democrats hold both Senate
seats.

"If you take the wealthiest one-third of the 435 congressional
districts, we found that the Democrats represent about 58 percent of
those jurisdictions," Mr. Franc said.

A key measure of each district's wealth was the number of
single-filer taxpayers earning more than $100,000 a year and married
couples filing jointly who earn more than $200,000 annually, he
said.

It is also the party of bigots/racists and the intolerant. *If one
looks at Super Tuesday D voting results many are in the NE area of
the country and not in the southern States as usually stereotyped.

Did you read Harry's comment about Obama being a credit to his race?

"A credit to his race"...is a racist statement. Next thing, Harry will
declare some of his best friends are Black.

Al and Jessie?

Do a simple Google search to find out how effective this technique is. A
simple 15~30 second dunking has resulted in some significant information
relating to our national security.


Yeah, I saw that claim. It's no more credible than any of the other lies
the current administration and its civilian and military supporters have
thrown out for us.
