[QUOTE="Film-Guy"]Palin annoys me, I hate how she always refers to hockey moms and parents, Legendaryscmt

I think she just tries too much to tie herself to the common American. It's a good thing in a way, but at the same time she relies way too much on it.

she considers herself middle class and yet she owns a $7000 pair of glasses

[QUOTE="lilburtonboy748"]

wow....joe biden is dumb

he says that taxing exon mobil and using it to pay for things for other people isn't the redistribution of wealth....

nice

mfacek

Let Exxon Mobil price gouge you. If that's what you want, fine. Let the middle class of America continue to suffer as Exxon Mobil's profits reach billions upon billions of dollers.

so taxing someone and giving it to others is not the redistribution of wealth?

Becuase you aren't giving money to the government. The same government that protects you, gives you your rights, gaurentees your safety with funding for police and firefighters, and educates your kids. That's why dodging taxes is unpatriotic.

Exactly

flipflopping... where?

She has had numerous flip flops, global warming, the bridge to nowhere, etc. Read up on her stances on them before the election, and now during it.

... Haven't seen any gay bashing from her

She's actually very tolerate towards gay rights.

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that the moderator is publishing a pro-Obama book. . . .

I see they allow a clear-cut conflict of interest in here. . .

how exactly is tax dodging unpatriotic???

lilburtonboy748

Becuase you aren't giving money to the government. The same government that protects you, gives you your rights, gaurentees your safety with funding for police and firefighters, and educates your kids. That's why dodging taxes is unpatriotic.

so keeping what you have without it being stolen is unpatriotic?

you assume those services require theft.

Stolen? Theft? You pay the due for LIVING in the country, if you don't like it.. You leave it, its as simple as that. Better yet lets cut off all services from you, including you can't use roads, public facilities, police department, fire department, forage your own food sense numerous services protect you from dangerous foods..

If you think its stealing, then guess what.. You can leave the country, no one is stopping you from that.. But good luck TRYING to find a nation that does not tax you.

It's your money- not the government's

Ok, don't call the police, don't call the fire department, don't send your kids to school, don't expect to be protected by the U.S. army, don't expect your roads to be maintained, don't expect any relief if your town is hit with an earthquake, flood, tornado, fire, etc. Forget getting help from the court systems if you are harmed, stolen from. Expect a huge drop in your quality of healthcare. Don't do any of that, and then you can keep your money. Untill then, pay your taxes.

[QUOTE="HiResDes"]Palin= Most annoying, over-enunciating, flip-flopping, gay bashing, soccer mom-neo-conservative of all time.DivergeUnify

Do you have any idea what you're talking about? :|

Over-enunciating... her accent perhaps?

flipflopping... where?

... Haven't seen any gay bashing from her

hockey mom ;)

She's a lot more conservative than most Republicans today

soccer mom is just a loose phrase to describe the prototypical middle class conservative mother, jeez.

And yes she is a gay basher, anybody that joins a pray away the gay evangelical church is a gay basher IMO.

ANd yes she is a flip-flopper, she's changed her stance on foreign policy several times, the bridge to nowhere, offshore drilling, and she once use to be a moderate Catholic.

And yes she over-enunciates, and no it is not part of her accent...SHe acts as if she needs to talk like that because we are all dense, as if she has to slow things down for the stupid average american

Maybe it is you that has no idea what he's talking about.

BTW, do you even know what neoconservativism is? WHat the hell are you talking about?

Neoconservatism is a right-wing political philosophy that emerged in the United States from the rejection of the social liberalism, moral relativism, and New Left counterculture of the 1960s. In United States, they align themselves with most conservative values, such as free market, limited welfare, and traditional cultural values. Their key distinction is on international affairs; they prefer a proactive approach internationally that would protect the national interests.

[QUOTE="johnnyv2003"]who cares, it's the freaking vice presidents...VP's haven't mattered since Gerald Ford...I totally forgot about this useless debate, and turned it over to NBC, so pumped for The Office to start...and then all of a sudden Joe Biden's old, tired mug is on in Hi-Def...obscenities ensued, and i threw my remote...going to play Chocobo's Dungeon instead...have fun to all who is participating in this crapfest on TV...all i know is The Office better not get cancelled for another debate next weeknalhutta94

Yeah.. The Office thing kinda pissed me off, but it seems like in this election the vp matters.

only because the media makes it out to be...like i said, the VP hasn't mattered since Gerald Ford....freaking McCain picking Sarah Palin to shake things up, and now the media is just adding to it....and it all comes down to them cancelling The Office for this week...inexcusable

Picking Romney would have been like giving the entire Conservative base the finger on live television.
