Reply #98: Can you articulate Obama's positions--his actual positions, not vague platitudes--

[MADem]

on key issues? Can you describe his plan for the economy, healthcare, the military drawdown from Iraq and what he plans to do in Afghanistan? What are his views on the future of social security, education and schools, and gay rights? How, specifically, will he deal with Russia, Iran, China, Pakistan?

That's the iceberg tip. I am not playing "gotcha" here--I do NOT want you to answer all of these questions. I want you to answer, just to yourself if you like, that you actually do have a decent grasp of most, if not all, of his views on those issues. If you do, then you've made an informed choice. Virtually most I have met are NOT informed.

And it's not just "gaps" in knowledge. They don't have a fucking CLUE! About ANYTHING he supports or opposes. It's frightening.

I talked to a couple of teenagers in the drugstore last week who actually believe that Obama is gonna legalize pot. Why? I shit you NOT--"Because he's black." Oh, and he's against all wars, and for gay marriage, and he is going to get rid of the Army. These are a couple of the idiots who support him. And they pass that bullshit on to their friends, who also believe it. And they vote.

Cultists? Who knows? Fucking STUPID, certainly.

All that crying and hopping up and down and chanting stupid Hope-Change mantras that mean nothing? Like I say, if it walks like a duck....
