2008 Presidential Election

[BELLA]

Whatever you run for, I am voting for you! Way to go. I like a critical thinker! Give me facts and I will be equipped to make my decision.

Doesn't matter which way you are aligned, always make informed decisions.

Talking to many people you realise that folks are just regurgitating words they heard without checking facts!

Old Rusty Pipe summarizes everything very well!!!!!!

1) I voted for the man, and so did quite a few more individuals than for McCain. It was a tough race for all involved, and now its finished. Lets move on past this.

2) Comparing someone to Hitler simply plays into Godwin's Law:

See Step 2.

3) Not going anywhere near the abortion issue...

4) He, like McCain, both want to increase the size of the Army and Marines. I wouldn't call that decreasing the military. As to nuclear weapons, what is your source on that one?

And I might add decreasing nuclear weapons might not be such a bad idea. We don't need as many as we have to still kill everything many times over on the planet. The track record for the Air Force keeping up with them isn't all that good either these days.

5) Nothing wrong with sodomy between consenting adults. I assume you are referring to homosexuality. He's against any law mandating marriage. He's for civil unions that confer many of the same legal rights as marriage. Marriage as a religious institution is up to the religion. Civil unions as defined by the government is just being fair. Part of being in a secular society. We all have to be treated equally.

6) Obama isn't Muslim. Even if he was, so what? There is nothing wrong with being Muslim. Muslims have shed blood for this country the same as anyone else. They fight in our military, and are our neighbors. America is a melting pot of quite a bit of different cultures. This means religions too. Respectfully disagreeing with someone of another religion is one thing. Its part of what I love about this country.

Don't judge a religion by its fanatics. It demeans all of us.
