NotSoPolituvus

We have all heard that politics and religion are not discussed in polite society. Well, this board was created for those of us who would like a forum to discuss those subjects that others aren’t so passionate about. Other than legalities associated with message boards such as this, the rules here are simple – no bullying other posters (bullying can take many forms) and no person other than public figures (meaning specifically other MTs) should be discussed here. Please report legal violations or bullying (include a link to the specific post) on the Restuvus Monitors Board, and we will delete the post/s if warranted. Remember you can only post about 40 words of copyrighted material and then follow that up with a link to the source. It is not required that any poster place within their post any statement that their post is simply their opinion. That is understood.

Can you discuss issues without bullying your opponent?
Enjoy your stay!

- Snopes and Raddatz call bullshit on your "Katelyn" garbage. - Before posting your lies, you should fact check them and save yourself the embarrassment. 11:44:49 7/03/2008 (7)
  - Bingo. Raddatz herself says the Katelyn story is not real. - nm 16:12:18 7/03/2008 (1)
    - You want me to believe Raddatz? - incredulous nm 09:57:02 7/04/2008 (0)

- And just wait until they install that Fairness Doctrine for talk radio. - Libs can't "make it" on talk radio, so they'll CONTROL it. 07:01:43 7/03/2008 (12)
  - When "making it" in talk radio means something besides spewing racism and hatred, - then liberals might be interested in listening to it. Only bigots listen now, not libs. 11:34:42 7/03/2008 (11)
    - Brilliant (yet childish) deflection. - . 12:00:11 7/03/2008 (10)
      - A TRULY Childish (and dim) Person talks about posters instead of issues. - A TRULY Childish (and dim) Person cries, "deflection," due to his/her LACK of brilliance. NM 17:45:01 7/04/2008 (0)

- what is a real shocker that nobody is talking about yet... is - what Obama's health plan for illegals is going to cost the taxpayer. nm 10:02:49 7/03/2008 (9)
  - Yea, because as long as you live in a place with few illegals, you're NOT footing the bill. - The individual states have to fund all the illegal services, including education. 10:47:52 7/03/2008 (8)
    - Are you serious? do you not realize what the Federal Government - pays out for its share to educate its citizens????? 11:01:55 7/03/2008 (7)
      - The individual states bear the brunt of federally mandated services. - Read up on prop 187. 12:07:17 7/03/2008 (0)

        There are federal,state,and local. Federal paid something like - 8 percent last year. This is still a LOT of $$$. State is in the 40 to 50 percent range. 13:35:51 7/03/2008 (1)
        
        Which means if you're in a high immigrant state, you are paying a TON of money - to educate illegals, not to mention subsidize their free healthcare. 14:35:18 7/03/2008 (0)
      - illegals are not - citizens. 11:37:39 7/03/2008 (1)

    - Or she could head to Liberia where the freed slaves from America started their own country. - They've got like 90% unemployment and no electricity, there. 08:23:02 7/03/2008 (0)
- I don't see what the debate is about. She shouldn't have done it. - It isn't what she was asked to do and agreed to do. Seems pretty simple to me. 15:07:30 7/02/2008 (4)
  - I can agree with that. It was inappropriate. But, what does Obama have to do with it? - nm 22:14:12 7/02/2008 (0)

    - Right now both campaigns are trying very hard to show - a difference betwen their candidate and the other./sm 13:59:00 6/30/2008 (8)
      - The difference between the candidates is remarkable. - The LACK of difference between McCain and Bush is the albatross around Johnny's short neck. 14:18:56 6/30/2008 (0)
      - It'll be a strong majority if not a supermajority in Congress. - nm 14:00:05 6/30/2008 (6)
        
        Yes, we may actually get some things done. - nm 14:10:07 6/30/2008 (4)
        
        Like going on a bigger spending binge. - nm 14:24:19 6/30/2008 (3)
        
        McCain would definitely increase the deficit. He's so clueless. - nm 14:27:38 6/30/2008 (2)
        
        We're speaking of Congress. - Nice try. nm 14:35:42 6/30/2008 (1)
        
        We can't afford BushCo's aimless Hunt for the Snark. - McCain will want more and more money for more and more wars. 14:44:49 6/30/2008 (0)
        
        God save us. - Time to call up supernatural deities for help then. nm 14:08:20 6/30/2008 (0)
    - Today's prediction of Electoral votes: Obama 314. McCain 194. - The vast majority are willing to go for change. 13:42:36 6/30/2008 (4)
      - One iffy poll that's been latched onto for 2 weeks now. Every other poll - shows a neck-in-neck race. 13:48:33 6/30/2008 (3)
        
        No, dear. It's ALL of the polls combined. Two weeks ago, Obama had Florida as well. - Today, Florida is a statistical dead heat, and that looks bad for McCain. 13:56:55 6/30/2008 (2)
        
        Wherever you are getting that from - about FL is dead wrong. A Floridian 09:26:23 7/01/2008 (1)
        
        Nope. The logarithm collects the most recent polls, and looks back one week total. - sm 12:48:22 7/01/2008 (0)
    - Americans have never had the stomach for war. Everyone - wants the troops home. As for other issues, sm 13:34:11 6/30/2008 (46)
      - You see, of course we all want them home.... - SM 13:46:19 6/30/2008 (24)
        
        Of course... (cough)... that's why you warmongers won't let them come home. - nm 14:03:25 6/30/2008 (4)
        
        Maybe the generals and those who know what's going on (not the hang wringers at home) - ACTUALLY understand the realities and ramifications of it. 14:33:01 6/30/2008 (3)
        
        That's the Classic arrogant rebuttal, dismissive of taxpayers. Here's a General who says he - doesn't think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be president. 14:42:17 6/30/2008 (2)
        
        That would be a "relieved of duty" General. - CLINTON FIRED HIS A$$. nm 16:44:50 6/30/2008 (1)
        
        For which you probably give President Clinton no credit. - Funny how that works. 01:11:42 7/01/2008 (0)
        
        I think you're way off base, but that's just my personal opinion. Of course he'd go back - they're taught to take care of their brethren in the military sm 14:01:14 6/30/2008 (14)
        
        McCain knows nothing about the economy and was a poor student in college. - I wouldn't bet my paycheck or my children's children's paychecks on him. 14:33:54 6/30/2008 (12)
        
        I'd be willing to bet he knows more about the economy than the average person - saying he doesn't know anything about the economy. 14:35:16 6/30/2008 (11)
        
        I believe McCain is the one who said he didn't understand the economy - But I don't remember his exact quote. nm 14:37:24 6/30/2008 (10)
        
        "The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should." - Says Bush3. 15:00:08 6/30/2008 (9)
        
        Well Obama OBVIOUSLY doesn't understand it, with plans to raise taxes in a - downturning econ
