Back in the day when I had to walk miles to get to school in the snow haha just kidding! It was a little while ago, I actually got carded in Australia when I was old enough to drink in the U.S.! Can't be upset when God's given me the grace to look years younger than I am!

I know what you mean. I look younger than I am. I'm sixteen and 5'4/5-ish, and I think I'm doomed to be carded until I'm thirty five.

But that does not tell us what happens when two fools debate.

They let you shuffle the faces once in a while, but they do not let you effect fundamental change.

I thought Obama was this radical socialist who was "fundamentally changing" the culture of our nation?

I do not think it has to be too conspiratorial. More like a general observation about the nature of the system.

I basically agree with the rest of what you said.

Prove your statements without having the "we all know that..." attitude please.

I have accused him of corporatism several dozen times. I cannot specifically recall calling him a socialist. That would not really be the most accurate label.

You are the one who apparently thinks government is the good guys. Maybe you have to support that before we have to accept it.

I admittedly didn't intend to insinuate that you accused him of being a socialist. That was a jab at the nonsense you hear about him from the right. Sorry

For starters, I didn't say they are "the good guys."

Secondly, you can't say "they're the bad guys," and then say that I have to prove that they're NOT the bad guys. You think that the system is rigged and that we have no power to really change it. Cool. Now get off your beanbag in your dorm room, put down Atlas Shrugged and turn off the Alanis Morrissette CD and craft an argument to convince me of the veracity of your attitude towards our government.

No dorm or beanbags, I do not read Rand, and I do not listen to Alanis Morrissette. That was super lame.

I was going for humorous.

It was close. You usually do a good job with that, so we will mark this one as a mulligan.

TBH, I laughed a little at my own words, which woke my lady next to me and earned me a whack on the thigh. So, I guess you weren't alone in thinking it wasn't funny.

Nobody ever appreciates our own posts we find most funny.

No one is [i]allowed[/i] to appreciate (/prop) my posts because I am "phishy."

[Nihil Obstat]

That too.

the biggest bald-faced lies Joe Biden told during the debate:

During the Vice Presidential debate’s final 30 minutes, Joe Biden and Paul Ryan were asked to describe how their Catholic faith informed their public policy. As part of that exchange, the topic of the HHS contraception mandate arose, and the lier, joe biden insisted that the rule wouldn’t apply to any “Catholic institution – Catholic or otherwise, including Catholic social services, Georgetown hospital, Mercy hospital, any hospital,” and declared, “That is a fact. That is a [i]fact.”[/i]


[b] That ain’t the fact, Jack say Catholic bishops to Biden[/b]

Biden was a jerk and continues to be an embarrassment to real Catholics.
