not you

you (^)

9/12/2008 5:38:54 PM

i thought itd be even funnier to find a pro-palin piece, but all i can find even on NRO and little green footballs are pieces on how other people give her shit. go figure.

9/12/2008 5:42:30 PM

Soap Box is that way ^

9/12/2008 5:44:00 PM

she said "nucular" multiple times in that interview

9/12/2008 5:56:03 PM

she really sounded like a smart ass when she said, "In what respect, Charlie?"

9/12/2008 5:59:58 PM

it's because she didn't have the GOP 'prompter from the convention that had it spelled out as "nu-clee-ar"

9/12/2008 6:01:40 PM

I am legitimately terrified that this woman could be our next VP. I seriously have trouble falling asleep sometimes.

9/12/2008 6:12:09 PM

I am legitimately terrified that this woman's accent could be our next VP. I seriously have trouble falling asleep sometimes.

9/12/2008 6:13:19 PM

Palin motivated me to volunteer to do voter registration for Obama

9/12/2008 6:14:55 PM

I support her because she is a woman. and they have been through a lot.

OBAMA/PALIN 08!

9/12/2008 6:15:18 PM

^^you might have better luck moving to Florida or Ohio or something...I see North Carolina being a red state once again this time around

9/12/2008 6:15:53 PM

^^most of all, we women have been through her nomination as a pandering choice

Obama only picked Biden as his running mate to pander to white males like myself

George W. Bush / Bill Clinton in 2012

after Obama or McCain improves the 22nd Amendment

9/12/2008 6:17:14 PM

nah, he already had white guilt going for him

9/12/2008 6:18:10 PM

unfortunately I also see NC going red. the polls were close before McCain picked Palin

as active-duty military, I hear you can register to vote absentee in any state? I'll have to look up more about this. I'm considering getting a PO Box in Virginia and voting in that state, where my vote will actually matter

9/12/2008 6:18:45 PM

if you hate palin you are a sexist pig.

unless you are nerdchick... then you are a sexy pig...

shame on you all. she is well spoken, yet still passionate like a woman.

9/12/2008 6:21:46 PM

if you hate palin you're a sexist pig

if you hate obama you're a racist pig

blah blah blah

If only I owned as many houses as John McCain, I could probably claim residence in VA

9/12/2008 6:23:09 PM

i'm still waiting for Dubya / Bill Clinton in 2012

the most experienced ticket ever

both of them had plenty of fuckups for 8 years...they HAVE to have learned something

9/12/2008 6:23:53 PM

W/B '12 would be the most charismatic team in a while. its like a white house filled with people you could see in a bar.

whether it be saloon or hiphop club. you could possibly see one of them...

[Edited on September 12, 2008 at 6:30 PM. Reason : thats for dubya and bill.... not woman/black... because this race black would be first.. woman as vp]

Looked like a pretty solid interview by Gibson. I'd like to see the press actually apply that standard universally to all candidates.

9/12/2008 6:38:52 PM

Obama and his ultra-left policies spurred me to join the NRA and get a conceal and carry license. As far as I'm concerned, they can carve the 2nd ammendment on on tombstone.

PS-I used to be a democrat...now an indy

9/12/2008 6:50:03 PM

Obama is really just eloquent about his lack of policy and vision.

9/12/2008 6:52:06 PM

Indy's a great thing to be

9/12/2008 6:52:26 PM

I'm registered as independent but I almost always vote Democrat. shoot, in Durham most of the local offices don't even have a Republican running!

I'm doing this tomorrow. I have my CCW and I'm an NRA member but too much is at stake this election.

the whole, "Democrats took urrrrr guns!" thing is overblown anyway. Nobody's gonna take your guns.

9/12/2008 7:01:38 PM

heh.

9/12/2008 7:03:12 PM

^^nobody is gonna take any of your rights...

9/12/2008 7:04:08 PM

oh wait...

""If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate of the United States for an outright ban, picking up every one of them, Mr. and Mrs. America turn them all in, I would have done it.""

- Diane Feinstein

Quote :

"“If you’ve got a gun in your house, I’m not taking it,’’ Obama said. But the Illinois senator could still see skeptics in the crowd, particularly on the faces of several men at the back of the room. So he tried again. “Even if I want to take them away, I don’t have the votes in Congress,’’ he said. “This can’t be the reason not to vote for me. Can everyone hear me in the back? I see a couple of sportsmen back there. I’m not going to take away your guns.’’"

and no one is going to take your guns especially because the supreme ct recently ruled on the REAL meaning of the 2nd amendment.

9/12/2008 7:06:04 PM

only 5-4 though

9/12/2008 7:06:31 PM

Can you provide a source for that Nancy Pelosi quote?

^^, the ruling wasn't as broad as gun ownership in general. It didn't really address ownership of individuals vs ownership of militias.

[Edited on September 12, 2008 at 7:08 PM. Reason : .]

9/12/2008 7:06:53 PM

^^^ exactly

although the ruling was pretty vague and left most people confused how it would apply to different levels of govt. But even if Pelosi wanted to ban all guns she couldn't for the exact reason JCASHFAN pointed out - she doesn't have the votes.

9/12/2008 7:07:48 PM

she can run the country with her tits

9/12/2008 7:08:37 PM

It was Feinstein, not Pelosi, hence the correction.

^^ She didn't have the votes. If she did she would. That isn't a very convincing argument.

9/12/2008 7:08:48 PM

oh and before someone calls me out on it, the "legitimately terrified" phrase was quoted from another TWWer. can't find the exact quote but there you go.

9/12/2008 7:09:23 PM

Ah, Fienstein is a nut anyways.

9/12/2008 7:09:32 PM

Lets continue the quotes shall we:

Quote :

"I think it is a scandal that this president did not authorize a renewal of the assault weapons ban."

Except that the weapons classified as assault weapons under this act are used in the commission of < 1% of all crimes. The AWB served no purpose except to open the door for further regulation.

And then there is his obfuscation on his, or at least his campaign's stance on banning handguns:

Quote :

"Actually, Obama's writing was on the 1996 document, which was filed when Obama was running for the Illinois state Senate. A Chicago nonprofit, Independent Voters of Illinois, had this question, and Obama took hard line: 35. Do you support state legislation to: a. ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns? Yes. b. ban assault weapons? Yes. c. mandatory waiting periods and background checks? Yes. Obama's campaign said, "Sen. Obama didn't fill out these state Senate questionnaires--a staffer did--and there are several answers that didn't reflect his views then or now. He may have jotted some notes on the front page of the questionnaire, but some answers didn't reflect his views." "

Ok, I'm going to quit now and not turn this into a TSB thread.

9/12/2008 7:13:38 PM

lol 1996? what about in 2006 when Palin was for the Bridge to Nowhere, which she's now against? hey if you can justify that, you can justify changing your mind after 12 darn years

9/12/2008 7:29:30 PM

I'd settle for a straight answer out of the man after 10 years.

And there is no indication that he's changed his opinion whatsoever, I just grabbed the first quotes I could find.

9/12/2008 7:56:18 PM

I like Palin just because she isn't afraid of guns. I'm from the country; You were the minority (and a moron) if you didn't have a few in the house. I don't think it's an issue of them trying to take urrr gunnnz. There is no way they could ever get them all. Given the choice, I'd much rather have a guillotine for my personal safety, but logistically I can't carry enough baskets to keep heads in.

Anecdote about women and guns: my husband's 81yo, 100 pound grandmother can shoot faster than a crip at wu-tang concert.

I hate duopolistic politics, but I guess it's better than a fucking dictatorship, unless that dictator mandates daily fucking.
