I’m tired of all this devisive political stuff. Let’s talk about our favorite Pokemon instead:
I know everybody seems all gung ho about Pikachu, but I think these people are misinformed. Now, Pikachu started his career in Chicago, a city whose political scene is extremely far-left. He knew that, as a Democrat, the best way to make political connections was to hang out with the likes of Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright. Now that he has his eyes on the entire country, he has abandoned these people, as most voters find them disgusting.
What this tells me is that Pikachu’s change rhetoric is meaningless. He is the same as every other politician: a louse. This alone does not turn me off to him. After all, in politics, the alternative to a louse is another louse. No, what bothers me is that Pikachu is a louse with nothing good to back it up. I disagree strongly with Slowpoke’s positions on Guantanamo Bay, immigration, and drilling in ANWR, but at least I generally agree with his views on nuclear energy, abortion, and the Iraq War. Also, it’s hard not to respect his actions in Vietnam. If Slowpoke chooses a more consistently conservative Vice President (Geodude comes to mind) I might just vote for him. I was rooting for Geodude in the primaries anyway.
Here’s the sequel: http://www.sporcle.com/games/pokemongen2.php
Unfortunately, the only Pokemon I played was Red/Blue, so I’m kind of at a disadvantage for this one. Oh, and try out the U.S. Presidents game. You might just learn something. Hey hey hey!
Also, Narnia.
I would call this stupid, but I know we have much worse over here. The old-man thing really freaked me out, though.
Here’s what I think of the election thus far:
Obama has the absolute support of the far-left. Also, most of the media is totally in the tank for him. Their support of Obama borders on the
. McCain has he support of the moderates, but the conservative base of his party flat-out dosen’t like him. It would be wise of him to select a solid conservative as VP. Maybe if he puts Romney on his ticket, the Republicans will forget about the immigration crap he pulled last summer. Similarly, Clinton supporters feel pretty left out. There is no telling if they will support Obama or not. Putting Clinton in Obama’s VP slot would win him some voters, but the hassles that come with it might not be worth it.
This year favors the Democrats, but most polls put McCain and Obama neck and neck. McCain’s best advantage is his expierience in that he can simply say, “The world is getting really dangerous. I’m the old war horse. My oponent is a one-term pup.” Also, Obama made nice with a lot of crazies back in Chicago. If another one or two or fifty pop up, McCain would be crazy not to exploit it. Oh, and warming up to the right would help.
Obama has serious advantages: he is a much better public speaker than McCain, the media will give him the most favorable coverage imaginable, and a lot of people are angry with the Republicans. Personally, I don’t trust the leadership of either party, but the Democrats suck signifigantly more.
(dives into bomb shelter)
I know from expierience that discussing politics on the forums rarely ends well. Still, I’m game if everyone else is. I think Obama would be a hideously bad president and there is no way I will vote for him. This year, I’m either going with McCain or nobody. Nobody is looking pretty sweet at the moment. I like his platform.
Dear Emo,
Please stop appearing in the english language.
Sincerley,
The Smart People

I used to live in Florida. When a shuttle would go up, I could usually see it from my house. In the early moring, it would light up the sky like dawn came early.
This thread went from a thoughtful discussion on race to a citadel of dumbassery in two pages. Astounding.
