Agreed. I will vote for neither, but then again...I'm probably going to be convicted as a terrorist one of these days in the future.
John McCain......

I am looking at all the negatives of all the candidates. The candidates do a fair job of promoting their own positives. This is an election of negatives for me. In fact, right now I'm leaning heavily toward Obama, but Progressives shouldn't take too much comfort in that.
If I support Obama, it will be 'Ben Tre' logic. That's where the famous quote came from:

regardless, Med will applaud you for your decision as will other misguided indivuals here on RIU. Can you feel the love yet?
I will vote for neither. I will vote for Ron Paul. But don't listen to me, I'm beginning to understand Timothy McVeigh and the Montana Freemen.

Ron Paul is a distinct possibility, but I am unsure at this time exactly what he's up to politically. Of all the candidates, he's the one with the most going for him from a 'good of the nation' POV. He'll be my good faith vote if I make one this year.regardless, Med will applaud you for your decision as will other misguided indivuals here on RIU. Can you feel the love yet?

I can't support the Faux-Libertarian candidate. Bob Barr is more of an opportunist than a Libertarian.
McCain is an open border, amnesty for everybody, anti-free speech fossil.
The Progressives really shouldn't rejoice based on my support of B.H. Obama: Manchurian Candidate. My support for their sleeper agent candidate will be an ominous sign. The election of Barry Hussein Obama will spell certain doom for our way of life. We'll long for the heady days of Jimmy Carter's America.

Let me know Dave, I may join you. There is a whole lot I dislike about government. I "hope" Obama may correct a few things, like our foriegn policy for one, But the big picture looks bleak. The past administrations have fucked things up so bad it would take Christ himself to straighten it out, and he may be the one to do it.

John McCain is Bushs bagman...
So I spent a day and a half, knowing full well that the Colombian rescue was done with the assistance of our intelligence services, wondering, still, why they timed the rescue to coincide with McCain's visit to Colombia.
Now I wonder how long it'll be before we find out the ransom came from Bandar's little slush fund? But don't worry--McCain's just aspiring to be like Saint Ronnie.
So I spent a day and a half, knowing full well that the Colombian rescue was done with the assistance of our intelligence services, wondering, still, why they timed the rescue to coincide with McCain's visit to Colombia.
Leaders of the Colombian FARC rebel movement were paid millions of dollars to free Colombian politician Ingrid Betancourt and 14 other hostages, Swiss radio said on Friday, quoting 'a reliable source'.
The 15 hostages released on Wednesday by the Colombian army 'were in reality ransomed for a high price, and the whole operation afterwards was a set-up,' the radio's French-language channel said.
Saying the United States, which had three of its citizens among those freed, was behind the deal, it put the price of the ransom at some $20 million.

White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said the rescue 'was conceived by the Colombians and executed by the Colombians with our full support,' while implying that Washington had provided intelligence and even operational help.
Silly me! They didn't need McCain there for a photo op! They needed a bagman.The 15 hostages released on Wednesday by the Colombian army 'were in reality ransomed for a high price, and the whole operation afterwards was a set-up,' the radio's French-language channel said.

One can question the timing of the rescue and that is fair. One cannot dispute the fact that the operation was wildly successful and the hostages were freed.
This begs the question of how Barry Ocarter would have handled it. Oh, yeah. He would open a DIALOGUE with the bad guys. He would TALK to them. And the hostages would still be hostages right now.
