I will not forget or forgive his "cling to their God and Guns statement."  Don't seem like he's a Liberal that's tolerante of my lifestyle.

no kidding.  everyone here in Flag is really supportive of him and his "ideals" and it became a really fun class when the debate opened up and they found out about me being a veteran and wanting to be a Deputy US Marshall.  The best part was when I brought up that part and asked "how is that tolerance, or equality?"

funny thing about it, I got a date from a girl that supports him big time, just because of my military background and how we both can respect one another and still disagree.  That will be interesting tomorrow! LOL

I don't think he's really that bad of a person, or rather compared to most in politics.  It's just there are certain things I'm not tolerant about.  Like when a friend of my wife asked me how I handle friends who are anti-gun.  Tolt her it was simple, didn't have any. ;)

sounds like a good rule Del.  Good thing this girl actually likes guns and such, just believes in some sort of "control."  Looking forward to opening up that debate with her.  especially since all I have to do is go to Dixie Gun Works and order my 58 Remmies! LMAO!  shipped right to my po box!

Just wait till sometime when you are havin' a drink and admit to likin' a drink now and then but we need more controls on them cause alcohol causes more deaths and crime than guns. ;D

I find it gives a lot a folks a better additude if they imagine havin' to have a 7 Day waitin' period to have a beer. ;)

nice!  I'll have to remember that for tomorrow!  I like that.  10 day wait period and background check for Guinness and Bud, everyone up here in Flagstaff would freak out.  Bad enough with the other "bud" underground!

What are his ideals? He has one set for one crowd and one set for another. He's a Chicago politician. Nothing more.

His past scribblings show him to lean heavily towards a socialist/marxist ideology. Duly elected or not, I will not support him.

I don't like how he seems to change his "ideals" either... and the only reason why I'll give him respect is because of his being elected.  On a military forum I'm a part of, they put it really plainly:
neither candidate is "the chosen one" people try to make them out to be... put it plainly, they're a band-aid and here's hoping something better comes down the line.

I think it's been that way since TR left office and headed to Afric on Safrai.

Good call!! Teddy was the last great president in my book too.  He was awesome in his moderation.  I mean he was a hunting and gun activist and loved the outdoors.  He was conservative in a lot of issues and yet designed the National Parks.  It's awesome.  It'd be nice if we had another like him, fat chance it'll happen though.

They always say don't mix poitics an religion, but I carry the story bout David bein the last "chosen leader" in the back of ma head.  Aint gonna be another one it says.  You aint likely ta find me in a church on Sunday mornin, but I think about that line every 4 years when I'm watchin the circus go by, it helps a feller deal with such stuff.  Dunno, keeps me outta the high hopes frenzy that don't mean spit no matter which way the teeter totter tilts.

Don't believe a man has to go to church ta be a God fearin' man. In my case, the people in the church run me off. It's said the people are the church.

Still, I believe one day I'll be standin' 'fore Jesus Christ. I'll try to suck up the guts ta look Him in the eye 'n admit I haven't been much of a Christian 'n ask to be forgiven.

'N He'll say, 'Arcey, you jerk, be glad I'm in a good mood. Go see St. Peter 'n tell 'im I sent ya.'

some of my best and deepest thoughts on that subject come when I'm sitting out in the woods, nobody around for miles, just sitting there admiring all the creations here on this earth,  it sure don't look like it came about just by chance,  and I think the closer you come to the earth the more you notice it.
I'm like Arcey on I don't think you have to attend anybody's church in particilar,  that ain't what it's all about.

ditto.  wow.  nice to see others feel this way.
I feel that if someone served well in this life, that they will be offered to serve again in the next, as angels.  I'd be honored.  It's just a nice way to think about all those in Arlington, all those who passed away in Normandy, in New York, in Pearl Harbor... that maybe they're still around helping us, guiding us.  I know they are to me.  Those heroes will never be forgotten.
