she's got my vote:)

I got it from dailykos.com, but just checked snopes.com and they say it's false.

Here's a great piece from the Daily Show... www.tinyurl.com/thedailyshow ...more proof there is no shortage of hypocrites in the US.

that's contextual advertiising for you...

pfffffffffft, that's right, and I posted a retraction above. But Palin did enquire as to how she could ban books, which is equally alarming to hear.

no its not a bogus list! while mayor in Wasilla she tried to ban every 1 of these books! and thats a FACT. It never went through, but what the fuck is wrong w/ her! wat an evil bunch of CLOWNS (wata u think NEVERWORK ; )

fanny hill - got to to check that one

Help i am lost. i was looking for the art forum? not going to defend palin.. but do we move on to the pope, queen, muslims, etc from here ? or just get back to art discussions.

It wont really change anything who wins.A few soundbites, a nicely crafted speech and everyone thinks the messiah is walking amongst them.

Obamos wont change American Foreign policy by any great degree - the ethos of free marketeeing that underlies the US system cannot accept meddling that will affect its markets- unless of course its Tariffs/ Protecionism and dumping their subsidised products overseas

Much like Russia, the US is experiencing doubt over its position and its borders, those pescky latinos are getting all arsey and electing maverick populists instead of CIA funded stooges - the US has border & periphery issues that far exceed the Cuban Missle crisis of the last century

The only major change I can see is a more inward looking US- just look at the candidates views on protection of their industries and support for their products ( not surprisng obviously ) More explotation of natural rscources in national parks and on the contintal shelf, but with a green slant on the PR.Obama is vocal in his continued support of Israel and needs to gain the support of any wavering Christian lobby ( and yes, its not the Jewish Lobby that are manically rabid about Israel, its the US Christian block that have the clout )- rightly or wrongly, the global politcal implications of appeasing bloody m inded religious nutters at home is insidious and creeping - would we have had 911 or 77 if there had not ben unwavering support of Israel ? We cant answer that, but the continued presence of a belligerent nuclear rogue state in such a fiery part of the world affects all of us every day.

Pfft

everything changes, but nothing changes.

Fuck the Pope. Fuck the Queen. Fuck Fundamentalist Muslims and Fuck Palin and the whole Republican party! Just my own little wish of course. And by fuck I don't mean shag!

it's a great trick - if you're against the war on Iraq you're not patriotic, if you're against palin you're a snobbish sexist pig, if you're against Obama, you're racist - (but the r word is way too hard to be uttered)

I think all 3 can be true and untrue, in very different measures...
