Might as well start a thread about how lame the Republicans are.   Anyone got some good excerpts from the web yet.  Post up your comments there will only be one thread about this convention.

OH my bad I forgot that I was actually in the stadium...my bad. Heres a fun fat about miss "family values" palin she was a member of the Alaskan independance party. Know what that is? didnt think so, its actually a group that supports Alaskan secession from the US that just gets me stoked to put her in the white house.......

Ron Paul is trying to start a political movement in america now. He has actually not done half bad. Since he is a representative for one of the most republican districts in the nation he should have his day job again next year too. He doesn't fit very well in either party so he is kind of an icon for the libertarian wing of the political spectrum.
I don't want to go on and on about why Ron Paul is God like the ronpaultards who occupy youtube and such but I am just saying that he is a legit guy with a real message whether you agree with the politics or not. I don't agree with obama but I think he is a respectable man who believes in what he is saying and has decent followers as well as obamatards just as any politician has.

yeah, he did JD, do you know why?


because john McCain might not be much, but HE IS A WAR HERO...

o, and it might have had something to do with the fact that months earlier, Biden said "i would be honored to run against John McCain"

bidens words, not mine...

I'd be honored to run against him as well, if I were running for president.. because I'd have class like that.. just as biden does.

and I'm sure McCain and Palin are honored to run against Obama and Biden themselves..

So what the hell are you saying about that?

So war heroes are off limits, but it's totally acceptable to completely disrespect everyone else without deserving criticism, even if they've been civil towards you? I think the worst thing I heard Obama say was "It's not that John McCain doesn't care, it's that John McCain doesn't get it."

pretty true..

Obama's run a pretty darn positive campaign as far as TV ads go... least in comparison to the constantly negative McCain camp.

that said, TV ads are lame, and all of you guys in "battleground states" should not pay attention to them..

Are you kidding? it was like a good 'ol down south redneck fiesta.  Country song about McCain? Palin basically saying that terrorists have no rights? Cheesy version of the pledge of allegiance?

I think what got to me was all the fucking cowboy hats...

The RNC was everything I don't want people thinking about the country I live in...

The guy was talking about having or not having class. You then posted a youtube video unrelated to the topic. Apparently you're under the impression that once you click the quote button, whatever you then type neutralizes the text you have quoted. If only it were so! We're working on that in the next NS update. Until then, you'll actually have to provide some substantial input.

Its about as useful as saying OJ did it solely based on the fact that if you rolled back the tape backwards, it sounds like hes saying "iii skiin'd them all"

personally i thought that was an awesome group of speeches.  the Dems saying its a big circle jerk...funny i was thinking the exact same thing while i was watching the DNC, its just how it is.  Either way, Palin is THE SHIT. straight up it was nice to hear from someone that talks to you like a normal person. kinda reminds me of the fireside chats.

Either way i have TONS of reasons to vote republican, Palin only adds to these reasons.

whats wrong with what people beleive man?? if people are religous, let them be religous.
i'm not a religous guy by any means but i feel like people that are at least have good values and beleive in whats right most of the time. it's hard to know the tone you were going for over the web but thats a low blow man... i have a lot of religous friends that are mormons in utah and being that i used to live in texas i know a lot of baptists/methodists and i can say that they would never put you down for any of your beleifs..
fuck arguing about the presidential canidates over NS.. i've given up because everybody is set in their ways.. but i at least thought you were open minded before, now i just think you're a faggot.

Yeah, and why force your religion on those who arent?

just because you have your views or "values" or "morals" does not mean you have to enforce them upon those who disagree with yours...

yea, i guess you're referring to Palin [suppossedly] wanting to teach creationism in schools?? i highly doubt that would ever come to pass if her ticket is elected, but even if it did what would be wrong with that?? presenting 2 different sides of life? like it or not, since there has been intelligent life on this planet people have always beleived in a higher being.. quite frankly i dont know and i dont care.. but the abscence of science to prove it only fails to prove it... it doesn't disprove it.

Personally that isnt a big concern of mine. But thats just me, i understand if others feel differently.  My views mainly differ on Tax plans, Healthcare, and the whole making more government instead of cutting it back.

like i said.. i dont know what tone you were going for.. but saying god damnit is different then saying something that could be interperated as a put down to innocent people..

I'm referring to the general consensus of so many conservatives, who are conservative merely because the GOP is pro-life.

and what would be wrong with teaching creationism in schools? Its a christian thing, homie.. do you know how many people in this country are NOT christian? or NOT religious to begin with?

If you want your kids to learn creationism, send them to a private school, or send them to church.

Separation of church, and state dude... it was written into the constitution 200+ years ago.

The problem is that separaration of church and state is a law. Evolution is a scientifically back theory, creationism is a religios theory with no real proof or evidence
