McCain vs. Obama

Well judging by Track and Bristol, one of them is probably called that.

You obviously don't the first thing about the republican party or US politics. The republican party and the Christian right are overwhelmingly in support of Israel in the Palestinian/Israeli conflict.

But, as you said earlier, US governments are socialist ones, no? You're not going to start equivocating on me are you?

It's ain't no true scotsman.... sorry, capitalist country?

If you're trying to imply what it seems you are, then you don't understand what that fallacy consists of.

Universal Health Care and a pay rise for Teachers? How is this going to be paid for? Who will suffer? If you tax businesses it affects employees. Higher tax means smaller profits to counter this they will raise the price of their goods and services.

The withdrawal from Iraq, primarily the handover of power and responsibility, has already begun. Its a slow process in a politically unstable environment.

Religion doesnt dictate government in America, its a multicultural soceity.

At least she didn't call any of them WOLLSMOTH

People are decrying America as not a true capitalist country because it does something that doesn't agree with their definition of capitalism/scottishness.

I think the fallacy holds.

No the evidence is so unbelievably overwhelming that the majority of scientists who study and research evolution will call it fact. It also isn't a case of choosing what to believe, a fact is a fact. The same way I wouldn't say 'well I'm reluctant to tell this child that Hitler existed for a fact because it pushes them into a belief'. You can't tamper with fact.

I still understand what you're saying about tact and such though. People will take time to come around to it.

That might be true, but alienating a key ally isn't going to serve America's long-term interests. The ordinary American in the street probably doesn't care about that very much, though, so I think you're right to highlight the "something to prove" factor as a reason to be wary of Obama.

He needs to learn that there are certain things that you DO NOT SAY to your allies; and fairly high on the list is "we will send troops into your country without your permission". That's called an invasion.

a.sheikh is right. If America suddenly turns on Pakistan now, it will be disastrous for its foreign relations, quite apart from the problems it will cause for the so-called "War on Terror".

In fact, I can't help wondering if Obama intends to sabotage that "War" because he disagrees with it. Invading Pakistan would certainly have that effect.

Seriously. Just look at those two words. "Invading Pakistan". Anyone with even a shred of political brains would call it unthinkable.

I have to disagree with you on these. The fact that people can hold these views is very disturbing. Teaching abstinence is not good enough, it will only lead to misunderstandings about sex education therefore putting people at risk of pregnancy/STIs. People have the right to an education that is not influenced by religion. She has to keep in mind that not every one shares these views and every one has a right to follow their own beliefs.

As for her views on abortion, those really do scare me. How many rape victims does she think will be capable of caring for their child? It's not fair on either the rape victim or the child.

I cant get my around my she is VP, people like her should not be in politics. Religion should have no place in politics.

Hey I never said they weren't supportive. I meant that Sarah Palin probably doesn't know crap about this conflict and hence will make weird remarks. I know that the USA is supportive of Israel, and it upset the USSR in the past because we thought Russian jews would stick with us, but they sided with America

QFT. The next one will probably be called UCAS.
