4. Yes, the Iraq war vet Democrat said if Obama had volunteered...
...he'd have definitely stood his ground as a POW, I mean, what choice would he have, escape I suppose.

8. I heard a woman caller last night say she didn't think women should have equal pay.
She said that as long as women have to take time off work to have babies, they shouldn't be paid as much as men. :wtf:

There are A LOT of idiots out there.

9. And what about women who don't have kids?
Their paychecks should suffer because other women choose to have children? All women should suffer for their potential for having children? I thought the gift of LIFE was a great and hallowed tenet of the Right?

Conservative creatures don't think, they just rationalize their reactions.

11. I don't have to bet, Obama is proving that he doesn't need pity
or victimhood to deflect attention to his shortcomings.

McCain's manipulative self-promotion and over-kill has destroyed any respect I've had for his actual 'service to America'.

When he used his 'decision to stay a POW' as the answer to the most difficult dicision he's ever made that he feels so good about' he showed us a glimpse of his real self- and it wasn't noble or honorable IMO.

he's overplayed his POW card-

12. Stuck it out? McCain BROKE. He helped made propaganda films for the N. Vietnamese.
I wonder how many soldiers died because McCain squealed.

14. And yet the non-thinking rank and file repugs still to this day have it in for Jane Fonda.
What do they call her again, Hanoi Jane? Proving once again, what utter hypocrites they are.
