Teamsters Endorse OBAMA

[quote=MrFedEx;410730]I was going to vote for McCain until I found out that he was strongly against the Employee Free Choice Act, and very closely associated with Fred Smith. In a recent interview in Money magazine Smith acknowledged he had been on McCain's short list of VP choices. That's pretty close.

I guess it would have been a maverick move. I have always been an advocate of the idea of putting people with a business background in government to reduce the wastefull spending.

It's clear that a McCain presidency would be an anti-labor administration....Smith's support for McCain makes that self-evident. It's also possible that Smith might become a member of McCain's Cabinet, should he be elected. Take my word for it, you don't want that either.

If your basing your vote on who someone may have considered but did not select then I think your decision process is flawed.

Excuse me I have never heard of anything trickling up, water, money or crap, it all rolls downhill.
What a ridiculous idea.

Tooner is right about one thing again. "Crap rolls down hill"......but I have never seen money roll downhill? fyI: water does invaportate (trickle up) small molecules called vapor in which creates huge clouds and fills up the lakes, rivers, streams and your basement pal!

ps: you were fooled by the actor Reagan on trickle down economics.....bunch of bs!

Where did they get this guy from? OINK OINK

Trickle down works on animals!

Retirement? If the old fart gets in you will never retire.....that is for sure....

Interesting how you will see oil tumble in coming weeks? We were all taking by these bleeding heart Republican Oil Mongers....

Gas will be in the 2-3 dollar range and all markets will recover after the OIL tycoons are no longer running the show!

I really believe that all the moderators are enjoying these present times because they continue to back them up!

You guys are little guys who want to be big guys and get creamed in the interim!

Don't believe everything you learned in UPS school! You already sold your sole and my suggestion is don't sell the remainder of your mind!

That Bleeding heart liberal balanced the budget...Tie I have really lost the little admiration that I had left for you on this post...

This is the kind of supporter that the Obama campaign has (successfully)
appealed to. The young, naive, college kid voter who only hears the word "change". There need not be any substance at all to what the candidate says, the young people only hear that one word. Like Hoax said, "still living at home". These young people have no idea what it is like to support yourself, your family, they have no real world experience. That one word resonates with them so much, it doesn't matter that the guy saying it has no idea or plan to accomplish anything.

It is a brilliant strategy that may just get an empty suit into the White House.

A ten year old kid is still smarter than a Hoaxter.......Get out of the bushes and into society again......or it may be too late!

george bush would easily beat Obama if he was running again. Bush beat Gore and Kerry who were both much more qualified candidates.

TIE you are right! I believe there are way too many people today Hiding in the woods, trees and deserts that cannot understand much. This explains how people could vote for such an incompetent moron. It doesn't faze me anymore...I believe these rats in the sticks are just like little bush! They cannot talk coherently and make sense....there is a definate connection! They must be just like him....i got it!

peace!

I am not a young college kid...I have almost 25 years of service. I also have a family. I also know the ecomony is in a real mess. I also know that we need some desperate change. I also know McCain is OLD School thinking. I know it hasn't worked. I also know I went back to college and have a Business degree. (paid by myself)

I own my own home. Pay my own taxes and my own bills with no support other than me.

Young college kids know these times haven't worked for them like so many and they are so right we need change.

I don't know what it is that you are trying to accomplish over 9.5 and HOAXTER?

I agree there are too many voters that don't know whats going. Pull up the howard stern videos. Obama supporters think Obama is pro-life and for keeping the troops in Iraq until the job is done. They also think Palin is Obamas vp candidate. Pretty funny stuff.

Baba gounj · 10-31-2008, 10:22 PM

Let's forget about all the hype.

The job of the President of the USA is open for bid .
What does the job need ?
A polictian or a celebraty ?

We all are slaves (pun intended) to our experiences as we progress through life.

My experiences have led me (without the ability to know you personally) that some one that posts as you do is someone that has very little experience in the real world. The experiences of working at UPS for 25 years, owning a house, having a family, etc is inconsistent with the posts you make.

I still am not convinced you are not a college kid but do acknowledge that you could be what you say and still post the way you do...improbable but possible.

---------------------------------------------------

As for your statement "I also know McCain is OLD School thinking."
Both candidates are both "Old School".
McCain is Old School US
while
Obama is Old School Western Europe.

It's ironic how Obama is proposing to take the US towards a Western European Socialist style of government at the very time that the Western European countries are electing Capitalist/Rightist leaders to get their countries away from Socialism and be more Capitalist.

So, the question is "Which Old School do you want"?
US Capitalism that works well at the Macro level over a period of time
Or
Western European Socialism that has not worked well and is being discarded by their citizens.
