Quick Poll
    #8080187 - 02/28/08 02:47 AM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Okay, so I thought I would quickly quiz ye Shroomerites as to whose judgement, between these two statements, better represents an effective commander-in-chief for the US.

Here is what McCain said:

Quote:


John McCain mocked Democrat Barack Obama on Wednesday for saying he would take action as president "if al-Qaida is forming a base in Iraq."

"When you examine that statement, it's pretty remarkable," McCain told a crowd in Tyler, Texas.

"I have some news. Al-Qaida is in Iraq. It's called `al-Qaida in Iraq,'" McCain said, drawing laughter at Obama's expense.





And this is Obama's stance:

Quote:


"McCain thought that he could make a clever point by saying, 'Well let me give you some news, Barack, al-Qaeda is in Iraq.' Like I wasn't reading the papers, like I didn't know what was going on. I said, 'Well, first of all, I do know that al-Qaeda is in Iraq; that's why I've said we should continue to strike al-Qaeda targets.

"I have some news for John McCain, and that is that there was no such thing as al-Qaeda in Iraq until George Bush and John McCain decided to invade Iraq." The crowd roared its approval. "I've got some news for John McCain. He took us into a war along with George Bush that should have never been authorized and should have never been waged. They took their eye off the people who were responsible for 9/11, and that would be al-Qaeda in Afghanistan that is stronger now than at any time since 2001.

"So John McCain may like to say he wants to follow Osama bin Laden to the gates of hell, but so far all he's done is follow George Bush into a misguided war in Iraq that's cost us thousands of lives and billions of dollars."





It is also worth pointing out, of course, that Obama's statement regarding "if they were building a base" was made in response to a hypothetical question if al-Qaida began taking over Iraq AFTER we left. :smirk:

Yea I am interested in Obama right now. I am not voting in the primaries, even though Ohio is somewhat big, but I plan to vote in the big election. I am too ignorant right now to vote.

You're in Ohio? Its one of those few times where your vote could have a real influence, on whether Obama or Hillary gets the nomination. You've got a week, and I'd be more than happy to help inform you. :hehehe:

I'm at school and there is the entire absentee ballot I am pretty sure. I am pretty certain it too late to figure out all that shit on top of school work and what not. I am registered, but I think I needed to fill out a card saying: Republican, Democrat, or Independent. I never got a card or anything.

Obama is clearly the superior mind in this race.


--------------------
Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man.  For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire.  Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it.

My body I will give to pleasures,

any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

So, can anyone say JFK vs. Nixon? :lol:

Throw in the Bush factor and preclude any kind of unexpected chaos event (terrorist attack, space invasion) and Obama has the White House.

Eh? :naughty:
