Discuss.
How likely is it that McCain/Palin will get in? I don’t know that much compared to most of you guys about both parties however it seems as though you’d be rightfully f*cked if the above 2 get in. Palin has to be insane ie. Thinks dinosaurs were around 4000 years ago, wants to teach creationism in schools instead of Science rofl, wants to go to war with Russia and invade Pakistan etc..
Who are you voting for and why? In Australia, I vote for the party aligned with McCain (I guess) however would be voting for Obama if I were a US citizen.

Palin seems to be a lot of show. She's very well spoken, however it seems that a lot of her words are massive exaggerations or twisting the truth.

Voting for McCain even though to consider myself a Libertarian. I agree more with republican ideas than democrats (except for Education). However I hate Obama's plans and ideas that are moving toward socialism.

In Australia, I vote for the party aligned with McCain (I guess) however would be voting for Obama if I were a US citizen. I can see the slant you're getting from your OP. Many misnomers in your OP. First where are you getting the 4000 yrs for dynos bit? Was that just a mispeak? On the creationism she thinks kids should have the option to learn both. In most public US schools it is again'st the law to teach creationism as you call it. She thinks kids should have a choice. I dont see a problem with that. If you read the question on Russia, it was "if Georgia was a NATO member do you think we should respond to it with our military? Well, the fact is they are'nt a NATO member. It's a loaded question. If they were though we would along with other countries probably including Australia since that is a violation of NATO agreements. There's a reason Russia fights hard to keep all those former Soviet Union countries out of NATO. The invade Pakistan is another gross exaggeration. We have an agreement with Pakistan that if we are chasing the Taliban,Al Quaida etc and they cross into Pakistans borders thinking we wont cross the lines we can indeed follow them and capture them per the agreement with Pakistan. Just a lot of media twisting things to get Obama elected. And yes, the mainstream media here has a definate dem slant excepting talk radio which is definately right slanted.. Personally I'm dont particularly like either candidate. I'm a true independent but tend to lean more to the right. I wish there was a viable 3rd party candidate personally. And kick the dems and repubs out of both houses and restock since both are more concerned with power than doing the right thing. Just my opinion for what it's worth.

I'm learning a ton about this because of DC and how you're pretty much an outcast if you don't at least know some stuff, but still not enough to bother voicing an opinion in the thread.
With that said, I LOL'd at Skillz' wording on that post. Not saying I agree or disagree, but it's just a stupid thing to say.

If McCain/Palin win I'm going to Canada. That's something I'll definitely be considering too if they win. No joke. One of my best friends actually WILL go to Canada if they move. His parents too. That's how disastrous they expect a McCain presidency to be, and I completely agree, him winning will send this country the rest of the way down the toilet.
