2008 Presidential Election.

Faye Merci:

I honestly think Palin is a few screws loose. Today, in a small discussion with Charlie Gibson, instead of being able to answer or even rephrase the questions he asked her, she just spouted shit that echoed the head-in-the-sand past. She wasn't even on topic half the time. She's so fucking crazy.

Also, I'm disappointed that so many women are voting for her just because she's a woman. (It bummed me out when people did that for Hillary too). It's just sad that you would base an important political decision on genitals alone. To me, that's just as sexist as not voting for a woman because she was a woman. I think the only reason you should vote for a candidate is because they best represent your views about how the country should operate, not because they share your faith or because they have similar sex organs.

That's one thing I can definitely agree with you on...and why haven't you answered my PM?

BARACK OBAMA!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm SSOOOOOOOOO GLAD THAT HE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What, just because the election is over nobody is responding anymore?

My political views are very strange actually. I have to support alternative parties in favor of what I agree with. I support the Communist Party and find capitalism to be a source of many of the worlds problems, yet society cannot make the transfer yet. The party I most profoundly support due to its ideologies is the Green Party. We should have more gun control, LGBT citizens should be given equal rights, LGBT marriage should be legal everywhere, most drugs should be legalized, we need to spend a lot of money in developing alternative energy sources, all religions should be accepted equally, "under god" should be removed from the pledge of allegiance, minorities and women must be given full equality as Caucasian men, we must have a universal health care system, more money should be provided to the education system, and we must provide more fundings to homeless shelters, orphanages, the ASPCA, scientific research facilities, the EPA, and many other humanitarian aid facilities and organizations. Unfortunately, we have a two party system, so the Green Party isn't going to win any elections anytime soon. Society isn't even ready to make most of these changes yet either. For such reasons, I support the Democrat Party. Obama 08. He is going to help us change the nation, so one day we will be able to make the changes I stated previously.

you bumped an old topic just to say this? This isn't a thread for your political views

No I actually said the Barack Obama thing before it became old. I said my views on the Communist Party, the Green Party, and the Democrat Party for the one that bumped it. Oh yeah WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS ISN'T ABOUT MY POLITICAL VIEWS???!!!!! IT'S THE 2008 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION!!!!! WHAT THREAD ARE YOU READING???!!!??

P.S. Oh yeah, what's wrong with bumping an old one anyways? It keeps the conversation flowing. I consider that positive.

Bumping threads is against the rules. Don't get snappy with one of my staff. I take disrespect of staff very seriously. If you have issues with anything I've said, pm me.

It's about the election, not about what your political views are. Talk about not liking him, or Sarah Palin, or whoever involved in said election, but your political affiliations have nothing to do about an election that has taken place months ago. If nobody's talking, nobody's talking. There is no reason to bump an irrelevant thread talking about irrelevant things.

Watch your caps, they, like your bumping of this thread, are unnecessary and in the caps case very rude.

kthnx.

Shouldn't the thread just be locked since the election is over with? There's already a separate thread for Obama. If there's a want for it there could be a Politics thread for all kinds of politics, but this thread seems unnecessary.

"BUMPING THREADS ISN'T AGAINST THE RULES!!!!!"
WHY ARE YOU ANGRY AT ME THEN FOR EXPLAINING THAT TO A STAFF MEMBER??????

HOW IS THIS NOT ABOUT THE ELECTION???

HELLO,,, THE GREEN PARTY DID ACTUALLY RUN FOR THE ELECTION.

THE DEMOCRAT AND REPUBLICAN PARTIES ARE NOT THE ONLY PARTIES!

Ok, if you want to stay here at INO I suggest you look at the discussion forum rules it explains it there. Using caps constantly is considered shouting and that's against the main rules of message board etiquette. Please don't dare to tell me about the rules here, I wrote them and run the board. If you don't pack it in I'll ban you. trust me.

You're gonna tell me as a staff member of this site for a year (and a member for 3 years) that I don't know the rules? Go read the rules before you tell me what's against the rules and what isn't, okay? You were talking about your political preferences, not the presidential election, which is done.

I am perfectly aware of what type of political parties are out there. Getting pissy with me is something you really don't want to do; not because you can get banned, but you'll quickly learn that I fire back

LOOK AT THE RULES, HONEY.

Sorry I misread what you said. I thought you said I looked over it quick and thought you said "isn't" rather than what you actually said. I am terribly sorry for what I said. I won't bump a thread again okay. I know you told me to stop talking, but I wanted to formally apologize. I acted stupid and I know it. I'm just going through some hard times right now and I snapped at random people online like you. I know you certainly don't deserve that kind of treatment. It just didn't seem to make sense to me that if it was against the rules to bump the conversation if it was a choice to do. It actually said at that I would bump it if I posted. I assumed if I couldn't do it, then it would say something like "We are sorry, but this topic has been deactivated and you cannot post". I'm terribly sorry for the inconvenience and frustration I must have caused to people on this page.
