well its either that or hes a member of the AHSA...Kommander wrote:I think he is referring to your belief that he is a member of the Obama campaign.
its a projection thing... largely the same reason why so many of them are extreme anti-gunners... they lack self control and they know it, so they know that they shouldnt be trusted with a gun... by projection they assume that everyone else is just as unstable as they are, this means that no one should be trusted with a gun.Erik wrote:That's a not very original ad hominem.

I don't work for Obama, I oppose most gun control, Obama is not the most anti-gun candidate ever. You don't even have to go back further than Bubba to find somebody more anti-gun. Clinton campaigned specifically on restricting gun ownership.mekender wrote:what am i seeing that isnt there?
He pretty clearly supports some laws that I don't, so I would consider him more anti-gun than I am. But he sounds pretty moderate to me compared to Clinton. I think the NRA has obviously been misrepresenting the facts, however, so if you were inclined to believe them I see why you might think Obama is the boogyman. The GOP is appealing to fear because they have nothing left.are you trying to imply that obama isnt anti gun?
But we're not comparing Obama to Clinton, certainly not in a way based on their records, because Obama doesn't yet have one as extensive as Clinton had. If he'd been around at the time, I see nothing to indicate he wouldn't have supported the Clinton initiatives.But he sounds pretty moderate to me compared to Clinton.

It seems to depend on who is making them. I was responding to an accusation that I am employed by the Obama campaign.Dub_James wrote:I think you know the culture here well enough that we don't throw those kinds of insults at each other.
Will do.quote wrote:Guys - keep the arguments to the topics and knock off the personal attacks.
so a sweetheart deal on a strip of land at way more than market value from Rezko to Obama had nothing to do with anything shady?Spells wrote:The topic is whether Rezko's talking means an indictment against Obama is imminent. It's ridiculous. Everybody local knows the investigation is about the IL governor, and the IL governor acknowledges as much while denying wrongdoing. The idea that Fitzgerald being involved means it can only have something to do with Obama is silly.
