Ok so I love polls. And I love politics. So what political party has the most lapband recipient votes? We'll soon find out!!

Sorry you all feel so offended by my saying he has stumpy arms. He does, get over it. Why don't you repubs have anything else to bring to the discussion besides that. Oh, because you have nothing else to bring. Get over it. Yes he has stumpy arms and thats a fact. Deal with it.

YOU'RE the one who brought this into the discussion.

I don't even know what to say anymore....totally pathetic

Why is it that comments like these go largely unnoticed but the "other" comment warranted a scolding from Susan the moderator??? This person is CLEARLY attacking another person for a physical trait and nothing is said directly to them to stop this??? Does it make a difference if the party being attacked is not present on this board, so that makes it ok?

It is soooo obvious what's going on here.

BTW, I'm NOT a republican. I just happen to believe that name calling is soooo childish and has no place either in politics or any other aspect of our lives.

I expect that Susan the Moderator will also tell this person in no uncertain terms that these personal attacks will stop.

OUTRAGEOUS

And I don't think that is a great way to make a point on a site where everyone is dealing with or was dealing with their weight issues. Like is said before, you are not...[/quote]

SEE???? Like I said, OUTRAGEOUS....

I wish the same could be said to the candidates lol.

YOU'RE the one who brought this into the discussion.

True and your point is?

Now you seem paranoid?

Well, I believe the Republic party has screwed over the American people for years, but since I live in the real world my beliefs don't necessary change things just because that’s what I believe.

I expect that this person will be told in no uncertain terms that the personal attacks will stop. OUTRAGEOUS

I am not personally attacking you or anyone else on this thread. I am sure you have or in the past had opinions about public figures. If you haven't well that's you.

I am done engaging in the discussion on this topic.

Fantastic

Now, back to civil and adult conversation.....

Ok I'll go there.

Has anyone checked any polls today. Go look at NBC, Fox, Real Clear Politics. They all have Obama leading and many have him leading over the marjin of error. They were taken after the VP debate and Obama is kicking as............ Check out how well he is doing in Florida, Virigina and Missouri for gods sake. This is why the Ayers and Wright issues are resurfacing. It's throw everything against the wall and see what sticks. Desperate times, desperate messures. Yahoo!!!!

I find that McCain's campaign is reaching and so condescending especially while he is using Sarah Palin and his wife to do his dirty work. He sits back and shows how far in the gutter he is willing to go to win this campaign. It is sickening! Michelle is a great woman on her own. She rises so far above working towards the betterment of women and would do more for women than both Sarah and Cindy would do together. I base my opinion on their past actions not on the republican rhetoric. Go Obama, we have to make this happen not for the few but for all!

Barack Obama will make a great president. Just because McCain has more experience does not mean he will be a good leader.

Here's Ms. Coulter's recent article on Sen Biden's remarks:

Welcome to AnnCoulter.com

Thanks for the link to her article Jack.

That was very interesting, although sooo not surprising that the Main Stream Media doesn't say a word about any of it. Obama doesn't even need to campaign anymore, the media is doing it all for him.

Thanks for the link, Jack, but why would anyone want to hear what Ann Coulter has to say? I guess if they're listening to Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter is probably interesting to them as well. Go figure.

Anyone want to argue about how the color of a person's skin affects a man's ability to be president any more than a person's limited mobility or range of motion in his arms does? If we can discuss one, the other is certainly fair game. Although I would argue against name calling in either case.

Did you even read it? I found it interesting but guess what, I've never listened to Rush Limbaugh. Huh, go figure.

Well ulp, gosh Missy G. you ought to listen to Rush. I'll bet you'd find him interesting too. He has a whole lot to say on all kinds of (made up)subjects and he certainly has interesting ways of looking at today's topics. Just as Ann Coulter's way of looking at stuff is interesting. They are certainly great at adult conversation. I'm so relieved that they are around to bring such fascinating viewpoints (lies) to public light.

Golly gee, sarcasm is such fun sometimes!

Well ulp, gosh BJean, no thanks. I'll just listen to you to educate me on all the (made up) subjects and your fascinating viewpoints (lies), and have great adult conversation. Just so I'm straight here, if you disagree with them, they are lying and if you agree, they are telling the truth right? K, just wanted to make sure that is how it works.

Golly gee, I cand wait fer u to edurdacate me....cuz i done no nutthin bout these here politicals n stuf......i jus nevr no whoos lyin er whoos telin truthe....

You're right, sarcasm IS fun! LOL

BJean:

Not that you would be interested, the Coulter article subject is statements made by Sen Joe Biden during the recent VP debate.

It was an interesting read. No matter which side you're on, I would think it important to know when someone's deliberately lying. Especially since you don't always hear it in the MSM.

Here's another very interesting read: UPDATED: Obama Sued Citibank Under CRA to Force it to Make Bad Loans | Media Circus
