You could have kept it short and said insanity runs in your family!
"My grandson,who is a pro-bono lawyer(you know,for ANYONE BUT the rich-brats etc.LOL!)
He was reading thru' your posts and when I came in,he said,"You know what gramps,I think this bitter ole' "believer" is actually recruiting for McCain".LOL!
He said,it looks like you(O/B) are trying to get people to steer away from candidate Obama,and vote for McCain,OR "waste" their votes on 3rd/4th parties!"
You mean pro-bono as in can't get real work!(just kidding)
Wow! He actually concluded that after reading my posts and without your help? I might be impressed with that if I hadn't stated repeatedly that I think Obama is the boob in this election, and that I would vote for a third party candidate like Ron Paul if he had a chance to win, but I think this is too important of an election to waste a vote!
The fact that "your family" used such criteria as " They(and I)see him,as younger,physically stronger,with a healthier cerebral substance", and are ignorant enough to use terms like "lil' loose-cannon,cabbage-brain McInsane." shows me that they think anyone over a certain age is an idiot by default, and are most likely just humoring "gramps" because they don't want him to have a stroke!
I can't believe your grandson didn't say, "Gramps! You need to get a life! Of all the posts on there, and in every category, you've made 98% of them!"
Wow I can't believe you allowed 4 world hating, baby killing, America screwing non-liberals into your house!
"DEMENTED CRETIN", "McInsane", "cabbage-brain" Did you really share all of those with your happy peace loving family? and they were cool with your showing so much hate and disrespect for a gentleman who's only crime is being on the wrong side of your political fence? I'll bet the 4 who weren't voting like you really felt welcome in that venimus pack of holier then thou liberals!
I doubt God looks on the church of racism, hate and lies that Obama attended for 20 years (without seeing the preachers horns), with anything but sadness and distain!
p.s.this is for you,finally,O/B! lol!
man,we had a great family celebration last night.My grand-daughter has just got engaged.The whole local family and friends etc were here on a beautiful Autumn evening.

Well,I got some GOOD news for ya' "DUDE"!
After the food and dancing etc,we got talking about the present political climate etc.And there were 35 people here,all ages,color,faith,WW2 and Vietnam vets etc,and we took a count and 31 were going to vote for Obama.
Knew you'd be PLEASED!
We can see his fallibilities.But he admits to all his errors and claims no false glory! We know he's no saint! lol! But he's no DEMENTED CRETIN EITHER LOL!
They(and I)see him,as younger,physically stronger,with a healthier cerebral substance,patience,rationality,calm,good sense of HUMOR,approachable,and more progressive,more honest,more truly Democratic,and more White House "promising" than lil' loose-cannon,cabbage-brain McInsane and his 'rapturous'Annie-get yer gun' making up the 'gaffes' team(that's getting embarrassing for America,you've got to admit).
Obama has worked with,and understands the poor and destitute.He's a man of RATIONAL faith,which enriches his life but DOESN'T ALL CONSUME IT!
I see MORE of ACTUAL WHOLE America in his EYES,than in the whole shape and format of McInsane with his head full of wilted lettuce and 'North-Slope Nancy' by his side!
Obama understands the need for dialogue and diplomacy,as primary strategy,BEFORE BOOTS & BOMBS,despite being burdened with a stinking Bush legacy of war,occupation and USELESS PRE-EMPTIVE PARANOID bloodshed.I feel that LESS PEOPLE WILL DIE,here and abroad,with Barack on board! Hey! if I'm wrong,I'll eat my Gold Star! LOL!
He has been a community organiser,has worked his WAY up,with good solid,honest hard work and a fairly mediocre budget!
And his family are great!
Remember O/B, Jesus was a community organiser.Pontius Pilate was a GOVERNOR!
Anyway,I thought you would be pleased to hear the Obama enthusiasm!
Happy McBush recruiting O/B! Time for breakfast.LOL!
May God Bless and guide you!
So jagib maybe you can answer the questions I posed to Grass Roots about the "thousand times smarter" Senator Obama and his sorry choice of friends and associates. Or let me guess, your one of those who believes all the racist crap his Rev. Wright preaches?
"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."
Thomas Jefferson"
If Mr. Jefferson could see the world today I'm sure he would add "wasting the labors of those who choose to work on those who choose to sit on their butt and let the others pay their way!"
You said: "i am not going to waste much time on oldbeliever" which is just another way of saying, "I'm not going to try to argue facts with him because I don't know many!"
Yes! I will "show my ignorance" as you say and vote for McCain, as I'm sure you will show yours by voting for Obama ignoring his questionable past associations and his total lack of experience!
You do realise that many of the financial woes we are now experiencing in this country are the result of the Democrats passing legislation forcing lending institutions to give out loans to people ill-equipped to ever repay them? That "idiot" Bush, as I'm sure you would refer to him tried to fix it in 2003 but was stonewalled by the Demorats who supported their stance with now comical statements like:
Democrat Barney Frank (D-MA) who claimed "These two entities -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- are not facing any kind of financial crisis, the more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing."
Democrat Mel Watt (D-NC) added "I don't see much other than a shell game going on here, moving something from one agency to another and in the process weakening the bargaining power of poorer families and their ability to get affordable housing."
I hestitate even get into your convoluted views on the war, or that leftist propaganda video you linked to with James Blunt. I know for a fact that many of the photos they used were taken totally out of context, and were used to make American soldiers look like blood thirsty pigs, when in fact most were taken at the scene of terrorist attacks where our troops went to assist the victims of the real pigs over there. Oh, and that baby on the floor you keep referring to and that soldier you damn to hell. I don't know what you see but I see a sleeping baby, (note the pacifier it is sucking on), and a US soldier standing guard near by!
that hogwash will apply.... only if mcCain is elected president.
"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."
Thomas Jefferson
i am not going to waste much time on oldbeliever, since he is of the voters who would put bush2 into office again. it shows everyone just how ignorant he is. But, hey, maybe this has to happen to wake up this country. one dumb president follows another dumb president - the country is damaged almost beyond repair and we finally realize the system got to change.
meanwhile we leave trails of dead citizens of countries we've forced our dumb foreign policies on. Oh but old believer just wants his ballpark franks & as long as the big screen tv can allow him to look at all the carnage from his easy chair, he is feeling like a patriot & its all good.
i don't know what it is that you believe in, but whatever it is this world don't need no more of it because its crap.
i pray that the little Iraqi infant on the floor will find peace in the hands of God, and the thoudands of others also.
You just keep revealing more and more of your ignorance and hypocrisy Grass Roots.
Look up the word "ghetto" there are different kinds you know. The word is not all about race and poverty as you imply. My grandparents grew up in an ethnic ghetto. From their many shared memories I can tell you that it was a great and supportive environment where neighbor looked out for neighbor and it was a fine place to raise a family.
There are also ghettos like many in Europe where immigrants CHOOSE to isolate themselves from the general population because they wish to create a country within a country, where they can make their own laws based on the culture and religious beliefs they brought with them. Not about poverty. Not about FORCED segregation, but free choice.
"Third World" and "ghetto" are not dirty words as you imply. Most of the poor pathetic souls you describe aren't in "ghettos" other then in the myopic definition you apply to it. They are in wide regions of large countries where their heartless, self serving leaders ignore their plight because they are to busy lining their own pockets and imposing their political agenda or oppressive religious beliefs.
Your hypocrisy screams out in this one when you use such a foolishly sweeping stroke to paint me as a "bigot" while coming to the defense of jagib whose hatred and bigotry can be seen in every word of his ignorant post. Oh that's right! His words are aimed at this heartless and terrible country, it's criminal leaders and it's selfish, stupid citizens! He's just speaking the "Truth" as shortsighted, hypocritical assholes like you see it.
I'm reposting his hogwash here in case you missed it or somehow misread it:
"Is this country stupid?, it's working people are all broke and ripped off by govt full of born-rich brats, so of course they will vote for the same EXACT liar scam artists for the 3rd time, a senile bumbling liar and a dumb, crooked housewife because they are afraid of guy who's a thousand times smarter than either of them, who was born without much but worked his ass off,but he has darker skin which just scares the hell out of dumb Americans. The world is laughing it's ass off at this country."
