Candidates debate between Obama and McCain starting now on MSNBC.

Cool.

Speaking of which.. It's noteworthy in the context, I think, that the Europeans so overwhelmingly support Obama. Despite the fact that he's not the best candiate from the point of view of their pure self-interest. Most of them, in particular the smaller ones, are export-based economies. They'd be better off with a free-trader like McCain than someone more protectionist like Obama.

It just goes to show how much they dislike Bush.

Wow, bikers who support Obama? Gives me hope.

I am a biker and a hardcore Democrat. Count me among the Bikers for Obama. In fact, I know a bunch of "Bikers for Obama" here in Ohio. It's not that unusual.

Caribou Barbie lives in the largest state in the union , with the sparsest population , dipshit.

Obama , after he trounces McDepends in November , will be living in DC ; and there's miles and miles of open land there to go riding ?

You're an imbecile...........BTW Great job Mooseburger Queen did with Gibson ; she's already exposing her monumental ignorance (kind of like you do here).

You say she exposed her monumental ignorance, but you're too afraid to say what she said that was ignorant until you get whatever comes from the blogs. That's the way it always is with guys like you, too afraid to formulate you're own opinion till you see the concensus. You couldn't tell anyone here how her answers were any different than what Obama and Biden's were concerning Russia.

dennis @ 4:

As an expert bike seat sniffer Dennis why don't you give us a review.

dennis , you are such a sad little tool :

Palin also said she had some “insight” into Russia because “they are our next-door neighbors, and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska.”

Are you actually going to try to claim the above quote doesn't seem as if it came from someone either goofing badly on someone , or someone who is a mental patient whittling away their time in Bellevue ?

And I already posted the above quote in an earlier thread , while pointing out how ridiculous her claim is........

BTW

You laughably claim I use some sort of "talking points" ?

I'm the one who pointed out to you how idiotic and asinine your 1st post in this thread was , based upon the huge discrepancy in open land and a total lack of population between where Obama lives and works and where Caribou Barbie does the same.

You don't know shit about honesty , intelligence , politics or motorcycles (apparently) ; is there anything you do know something about ?

dennis @ 4:

This is the kind of thing that makes people think Americans are stupid.

You haven’t even seen the full interview, so you’re taking part of a quote and half-heartedly ridiculing it. You have no idea what beyond that she said that is wrong. And you won’t until you get a better read from the blogs.

I have no clue what you’re talking about in the open land/motorcycle jibberish. There are all kinds of open land and awesome trails rides just outside of DC for motorcycle rides. The Blue Ridge Parkway through the Shenandoah Mtns is only about 45 minutes away. I don’t have a bike now but I did have a Honda 750 back in college that I would give my left nut to have back right now. Before that I had Yamaha trail bikes in high school that I would give both nuts to have back in my garage.

What type of "context" is necessary when you continue a laughable premise that was concocted as a defense by one of the most partisan losers on the planet in Steve Douchey (however you spell that moron's name) of/for Palin/the GOP , that is both mind-bogglingly foolish as well as impossible to justify ?

That , my foolish little toad , is what is known as using 'talking points'.

As for your contention of areas available for Obama to ride ; you believe a US Senator running for the presidency has more free time than the brainless governor of Alaska ?

It also doesn't help your case that you cannot prove that Palin actually owns that bike ; she's merely standing by one in a picture , which is not exactly a title of ownership.

Hey, Dennis, seriously now, what point were you trying to make with your link in post 4?

Ooh look, vote for me! I lent against a Harley! I are a biker!!

I once sat on a Ducati 996, guess I must be a biker too.

Thanks for the post Bluegal. it's heartening to see regular people who you wouldn't expect to be paying attention, really paying attention.

maybe there is hope for America yet!

When the Boss played at the harley festival in Milwaukee a couple of weeks ago, they told him to drop his usual political references.

McMetal- What the heck are you talking about? You are incomprehensible.

I didn’t make a case, I just posted a web page that had Palin next to a motorcycle and Obama riding one. That’s a fair contrast between these two. And who’s to say Obama owns the bike he’s riding looking like Barney Fife patrolling the streets of Mayberry and Mount Pilot?

Incomprehensible ?

You believe in the old Andre Agassi commercial line "Image is everything" ?

Chimpy also wore a hilariously ill-fitting flight suit ; does that mean he actually flew the plane he emerged from or owns it ?

That's the glaring difference between those in the GOP and those like Obama , which is the same difference between your sorry-ass self and myself.

Style and flash is all you are fascinated with and are all about , without an ounce of substance being necessary or present.

You possess all the depth of a drop of gnat piss...............And possibly the same IQ.

It's a contrast, alright. And you certainly didn't make a case.

Has Obama ever riden a Hog?

You want to prove he's as American as Palin just find a good pic of him out on the highway and America will be sold.

Bikers in Missouri are extremely politically active and deeply involved in Democratic politics. When I went to the annual Truman Days shindig the last day of the legislative session, the bikers had the best hospitality suite on the floor - with the IBEW a close second. Next year, I am getting a room and availing myself of all that free top-shelf liquor!

It’s a very apt visual.

Because , after all , to those who are in or support the garbage GOP :

"Image is everything"...........

But , I have a better one.

The WTC buildings falling down , because of GOP incompetence , and all on their watch..............

Good to know! I sometimes get tired of the wussy Democrat image we have.

Credoagathos@38:

I think you're right on the money. A few bikers who favour Obama doesn't mean there's some big switch happening. I wish there were but I doubt it. I've also thought about leaving the country if we end up with another Rep in the White House but it's not really practical. I can only hope that Obama wins in Nov. And if not that the Dems build a stronger majority in both houses so they can keep McCain in line.
