Wasn't Bush a crack addict?

Rules of this thread: No talk of experience. No talk of Obama being all about change and hope.

Where the hell do you get this idea from? I think that, among all of this, might be the biggest bullshit I've read about Obama.

What a strong grasp of the issues you have.2861U2 said:
The United States cannot pull out of Iraq now. We cannot abandon the Iraqi people and let them get slaughtered. McCain understands there are nutjobs out there that want us dead and he's a fighter, and has much more military knowledge and understanding than Obama. You can't even compare the two here. I'd trust McCain in the war against terrorism a LOT more than I would Obama, who wants to bomb Pakistan.

McCain supports the tax cuts and would make them permanent. With one kid in college, one just out of college, and one a few years away from entering college, I really would hate for my parents to be paying more in taxes for unnecessary things, like someone else's healthcare.

I like smaller government.

2861U2 said:Spending- kind of goes along with taxes. I heard somewhere that Obama would introduce a total of about $200 billion of new spending. I like smaller government.

No, you don't. I've seen the things you support.
Snowlock said:No, it's not bullshit, but hey here we go again from the liberal mob.
Philly, you're full of bullshit.
There. now that I'm down to your level, do you want to continue?
When's the moderator going to come in and condem me for attacking fellow posters? Waiting...
You all need to grow up.

The rest of your statement, although I strongly disagree with much of it, is a perfectly valid opinion. This, however, is a bit ridiculous. Nearly every candidate for public office that was a teen/young adult during the 1960s or 1970s used drugs during that time. Much of the younger population in general at that time experimented heavily with drugs. Much of the young population today does. It happens regardless of our personal beliefs about it being right or wrong. Our current president and President Clinton both admitted to drug use in the past as have a lot of other people holding high office in our country.

You know, believe it or not, I don't agree with everything President Bush has ever done.

I said your statement was bullshit, and only part of it. That's a far cry from calling you full of bullshit.
There's been zero indication that Obama wants to run just for the sake of becoming a black president. Zero. None. It hasn't happened.
For people that complain about the hope and change stuff, now suddenly he doesn't even want that? I think it's quite clear that his motivations are for the betterment of the country.
It's funny to hear "Grow up" coming from you.
Snowlock said:I'm so sick of some of you and you're uninformed, historically vacant garbage including opinions on me.
There's been zero indication, Philly, TO YOU. Do you think he's just gonna come out and say it? I'M saying given that he was just elected to the senate in a major upset, and all the press that it generated, it was inevitable, the OPPORTUNITY was too great to NOT run for president. He's not ready. Everyone knows he's not. You even know it which is why you didn't want to have experience as part of the discussion. But what he's got is momentum. Running because of momentum implies that he's running to win. WIN, not improve the country.
And no, Paris, Bush never smoked crack.
phillyfan26 said:Why was he arrested for cocaine posession in the early '70s if he never smoked it?

I don't want to keep veering the thread into this tangent, but I take issue with that.
Addiction is a disease, and equating someone who is an addict with being weak-willed is questionable and unfair.
If you want to argue that he's weak-willed for other reasons, go right ahead.
