Skip to the previous post in this topic.

While Joe Biden is perhaps the best pick for a running mate for the Democrats one has to wonder when he will follow his own words and apologize to the Marines who were accused of the Haditha massacre. 7 of the 8 had the charges dismissed or the case dropped due to undue command influence. 7 of the 8 are free with the last one still awaiting trial. Much like the dirtbag John Murtha I doubt we will see anything in the form of an apology from Joe Biden anytime soon.

I would much rather see Joe Biden as the VP selection than Billary though so perhaps he is the lesser evil of the choices Barry had to choose from.

Well apparently the Military justice system felt they were not guilty of what they had been accused of and for those Marines that is what matters most.

The uber liberal media had a field day trumpeting this supposed war crime and even likened it to Vietnams My Lai massacre. Unfortunately now that they are being proven wrong few if any have come forth to offer an apology for their rush to judgement. As for Murtha well he is doing what he does best when confronted with his comments about this incident.....he runs to the nearest elevator and hides.

1 found not guilty on all counts, 5 had the charges dismissed, 1 who had the case dropped due to UCI and 1 left to go. Oh and the LtCol who had the charges dismissed due to UCI......those charges were dismissed without predjudice which means that he cannot be recharged with the same offense later.

But now back onto the topic of this thread......

It is unlikely Biden will ever take his own advice anymore than any other politician, Rep or Dem, so one can only hope he makes a better VP than any of the other choices Barry had available.

And when gas goes to more than $6.00/gallon after Obama's "windfall" profits tax are you going to get on your knees and kiss his robe? Do you have any freaking understanding of how legislative mandates in the name of over-hyped environmental concerns (enviro-fascism) and the increased demands from China and other countries have impacted this? IF Obama wins, what do you think the speculators (and no, they are not evil) will do?

Seriously, are you THAT naive and uninformed?

Only a lib would a support a guy that believes China's infrastructure is superior to us and that THAT is the reason corporations would choose China over the US.

QUOTE

Think about the amount of money that China has spent on infrastructure. Their ports, their train systems, their airports are all vastly superior to us now, which means if you're a corporation deciding where to do business, you're starting to think Beijing looks like a pretty good option.

Nothing like a one child policy...millions of people who are starving...internet resrictions...free-speech restrictions...a government corrupt with paranoia.

Why do libs insist on putting the U.S. down? What pro-U.S. statements have the libs made since running their campaigns? I'm sick and tired of politicians putting my country down. Libs have transformed the word patriot from actually loving your country to one who has disdain and contempt. That's their new definition of patriotism...

"According to Obama's tax returns from 2000-2006, the Obamas have given far less to charity than John McCain has. In all but the two most recent years reported, the Obamas gave around 1% or less of their income to charity. Their contributions increased in 2005 and 2006 to 4.7% and 6.1% respectively, but still are far short of those of McCain who gave 28.6% in 2006 and 27.3% in 2007." But what about his concern for "the least among us."

Only a lib would allow his own flesh and blood to live in a hut on poverty while he banks millions on a book deal.
The audacity of Obama... :flame:

Obama's Minnesota campaign headquarters vandalized
August 25, 2008
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Police say Barack Obama's Minnesota campaign headquarters in St. Paul had three plate glass windows and a glass door smashed early Sunday morning.

Police arrived at the Democratic senator's headquarters about 1:15 a.m. A report says vandals threw bricks through the windows and door and splattered paint on the outside and inside of the building.

One person was at the headquarters at the time of the incident but was unharmed.

No arrests have been made and the police are asking for the public's help to find those responsible for the vandalism.

Obama spokesman Nick Kimball says the door has been replaced, but the windows have been boarded up until the glass can be replaced in the next few days.

"It doesn't seem like a big deal," Kimball said.
