How many times and in how many ways will Senator Obama shoot himself in the foot? He might as well go hunting with Cheney and save himself the time and birdshot...

edited for Cheney's ammo of choice...

P.S. Whoopi is talking about Obama hating on the oldies right now on The View

She said BO disses on the boomers and we need fresh new ideas, yet HE hasn't

said anything fresh and new.

You tell em Whoopi

Most likely this "old" woman would be in better shape if she had not spent her youth going door to door, sitting for hours at phone banks and protesting.

Great response NewHampster.

24. No problem
in many ways I resemble that "old" woman. We maybe worked for the same candidates way back in the olden days.

25. My first campaign was McGovern
and he too got cheated by the early repug machine. Funny how people forget that Watergate actually had a target.

35. Wow
You must be a couple years older than I am, I was not out of high school at that time but coming right up behind you.

Living in Kansas made it difficult to get to any of those big gatherings but we certainly did our own thing here. I got kicked out of school a couple of times for participating in sit ins and protests. It was fun to a lot of kids so we always had a large number but a few of us who had older brothers and friends who were fighting knew it was far more than that.

We were always busy doing something and always representing our cause somehow.

I wish I saw more of that now. Why do we have to be threatened with death by draft to get younger people involved? (NOT those of you here, gimme a break I am not stoopid)

37. I expect it had something to do with the draft then
I wonder how many would have protested if they weren't sending so many to Nam?

I like to think we're somehow better but I bet if there was a draft today you'd see millions in the streets.

One reason to bring back the draft.

38. You are probably right
but I can't even entertain bringing the draft back. Not for any reason but also personally. I have two sons, 21 and 23 and I would do anything to keep them out of this illegal occupation.

45. We should respect those who fought the good fight IN EVERY GENERATION
Edited on Thu Nov-08-07 09:00 PM by Bongo Prophet
Generation gap politics = divide and conquer

Edit to add: I would call her whatever she wanted to be called.
With the respect and brother/sisterhood she deserves.
Even our enemies deserve the respect due of humans, or sentient beings.

Call me a softie.
