Yes and you're one to talk aren't you? If you look at trends, where we've been, and the way cycles work as a whole it's really kind of a no brainer.

Obama isn't going to be impeached. We're in a liberal part of the cycle. So the other arms of government won't change much right away. Obama will get 4 years probably 8. And even after that if things are going well we might even get another 4 years out of another candidate. What the republicans have done and George Bush is still fresh in the minds of the voter.

Easy call.

"When you think of me, when you think of John McCain, think of me, George W. Bush. Think of this face. When youre in the voting booth, before you vote, picture this face. Right here. A vote for John McCain is a vote for George W. Bush.

heh.

Floorjack my comment was aimed at your cute picture. Obama's not going to get impeached. Maybe you can hope for a certificate that proves he was born on Africa or that he fools around with a Whitehouse intern.

Good luck with that! No he's smarter than that and will be around for probably 2 terms and after that we'll see. It really depends on how soon the GOP decides to shed itself of the more insane elements that have helped drag the party down.

Yes I know. I think you're being generous that the legs are nice. Good thing you flew off the handle for the rest of your reply.

No flying off the handle here. It's just very clear you don't have an argumentative leg to stand on.

Pun intended.

No, Jesus is a Wicker Man. He died in your stead, that God might be pleased.

I think Cage is the "pale horse" mentioned in Revelations. At any rate, I'm pretty sure the Bible takes a dim view of the remake.

You clearly have nothing relevant to add to the content of this thread except the cutsy wootsy picture of a girl holding a sign with a fill in space for a name.

And again nothing.

What does any of this have to do with the death of Ted Kennedy or how long the conservatives will be kept in their little corner?
