Haha...haha. He gave it a good run but that fool is far behind now in delegates, it ain't gonna happen.

What these knuckeheads DON'T understand is appealing to the most conseravative branch of the Republican party is not going to win you crap....that's OVER for now. Bush pandered to the ultra-conservatives and won his elections but people now know Bush was a disaster...and all this bullshiet talk of morals and values doesn't a competent leader make. Having said that ppl sincerely do want something different, even in the Republican party...frankly the ascendency of the conservatives in the Republican party is over....good for the country I say.

It more like a Global War of Errors, if you ask me.

Got this from Japan Today: :hehe:

Fukui city hops aboard the Obama bandwagon
OBAMA \ U.S. presidential hopeful Barack Obama is getting some unexpected but enthusiastic support from people in a coastal city in central Japan named \ Obama.


"The name of our city happens to sound the same as his and we're hoping the name Obama will spread worldwide on the coattails of his popularity," said 54-year-old Satoshi Emi, head of the international exchange office of the city, which is located in Fukui Prefecture. By capitalizing on the election frenzy surrounding the Democratic Party candidate in the United States, the Sea of Japan coastal city is apparently aiming to better promote the region and help revitalize the local economy.

Members of a local tourism association and other people formed a volunteer group Monday supporting Obama and put up campaign posters at a local hotel. "We'd like him to win the election and visit our city as president," said 55-year-old Kiyoji Fujihara, a group representative.

The group is also considering selling Japanese-style "manju" sweets with Obama's portrait on them. According to the city government, the move arose out of an email sent to city hall by a local resident in late 2006. The message said Obama had joked "I'm from Obama" on TV when visiting Japan and that the city should consider giving him an award for the comment that became good publicity for the city.

It is not known if he actually did make such a comment, but the city last year sent Obama a letter and lacquered chopsticks, a local specialty, city officials said.

Well, if he does win the Presidency, he should visit that city... It'd make for great publicity. :D

If you mean dropping ourselves in our enemies front and backyard and turning them into meatgrinders for all who want to bring it, then still losing this war because of the American public, well then.....uh.....yeah.

Yeah, I'm losing the war for President Knucklehead.

If you mean dropping ourselves in our enemies front and backyard and turning them into meatgrinders for all who want to bring it,

Interesting sentence. Who are the meatgrinders? Have we turned our own soldiers into meatgrinders? That doesn't sound very good.

Or is it that we've turned our enemies into meatgrinders... which I suppose means our soldiers are the meat.

Either way... it doesn't sound very good to me.

then still losing this war because of the American public,

The "War" ended. The only "War" we actually had going. They surrendered. Iraq I mean. Their army was beaten and disbanded. Their leader was executed. We installed a new government. That's a win, militarily speaking.

If you mean the supposed "War on Terror". That's not a war. That's a bumper sticker. Terror is a tactic. Trying to fight a "tactic" with an army is like trying to nail jello to a wall. In other words... it's stupid.

Oh, and about the American Public. We're supposed to get a say in this sort of stuff. The American Public, I mean.

America isn't a Military Dictatorship. It isn't a Monarchy. At least not yet, anyway.

The American Public... The American People carry the final responsibility.

And if you look at the polls... the People don't like what's been going on in their name lately.
