All About McCain

[BarTopDancer]

You have to pick the candidate who you agree with the most.

Since I enjoy having the ability to choose what I do with my body, and look forward to attending weddings of my gay friends, I choose to vote for Obama. Those are the two main issues I choose a candidate on. It may be shallow but those are my biggies.

I also am finding it harder and harder to respect people who think it's ok to take away those rights because their religion or personal moral compass says it's not ok. If you think abortion is wrong, don't have one. If you think same-sex marriage is wrong, don't marry someone of the same sex. McCain's administration is going to try and take away those rights, and frankly, to me, if you're voting for his ticket you're voting to take away rights of your fellow people and I just can't bring myself to respect people who want to oppress others.

If you think animal abuse is wrong, don't abuse one.
If you think stealing is wrong, don't steal.
If you think infanticide is wrong, don't vote for Obama.

If you think same-sex marriage is wrong, don't marry someone of the same sex. ...

Did Obama change his position on same-sex marriage recently?

if you're voting for his ticket you're voting to take away rights of your fellow people and I just can't bring myself to respect people who want to oppress others.

So forcing me, at the point of a gun, to work several months each year to support programs that I neither use or think necessary isn't oppressive?

I say anyone who thinks Obama represents less oppression than McCain is ...no, I won't say it.....I am better than that, much, much, better than that

Do you realize how ridiculous you sound with those examples? Those effect others. What I choose do to with my body effects me. You have no right to tell me what to do with my body.

I think I need to walk away before I say something I may or may not regret later.

How does abusing an animal "effect others"?

((Yes, this is a trap))
