I agree to a point, we are the most powerful country on earth, and this is the best 2 candidates we can come up with? David Gilmour for President !

by **drewcrane** » 20 Jul 2008 14:34

we have all these choices :s006:

and yet they all seem the same :s008:

by **JackT** » 27 Jul 2008 20:35

I am looking forward to the first election in two decades without a Bush or a Clinton running for president. It may be the same usual choice between two evils, but at least it's got new faces.

by **drewcrane** » 27 Jul 2008 22:35

new faces, :!:

lol

Write in, "Ron Paul" when you vote. Just to send a message, if nothing else..

Check out his video re: yesterdays housing bailout bill. :arrow:

An E-mail from Ireland

An email from Ireland to all of their brethren in the States... a point to ponder despite your political affiliation:
We, in Ireland, can't figure out why you people are even bothering to hold an election in the United States.

On one side, you had a pants wearing female lawyer, married to another lawyer who can't seem to keep his pants on, who just lost a long and heated primary against a lawyer, who goes to the wrong church, who is married to yet another lawyer, who doesn't even like the country her husband wants to run!

Now... On the other side, you have a nice old war hero whose name starts with the appropriate "Mc" terminology, married to a good looking younger woman who owns a beer distributorship!!!

What in God's name are ye lads thinkin', over there in the colonies???

lol i think its really funny

It's a tragedy that this is how our government works, I cant
believe that anyone in their right mind even bothers to vote, it's a joke. :rage:

We are slowly loosing our image of the free, this is too painful to really even comment on......it's all about greed and selfish desires of the rich.
All I can say is that when death comes the playing field will be leveled and evened out.

Write in, "Ron Paul"good idea it might send a message, i like ron paul!

by **Eddie** » 29 Jul 2008 19:08

I like Ron Jeremy :lol:

by **drewcrane** » 29 Jul 2008 20:09

I like Ron Jeremy,me too! he has more class than clinton :s006:

If you think about it, it sort of makes sense on who attempts to run for the presidency. No smart person is going to want to run the country as it is. If you compare it to running a Fortune 500 company.
The pay is lousy-only one million $ USD a year as opposed to 7 figure incomes in F500s.
Less perks
More scrutiny in your job performance-no one will be satisfied
You need the support of the US Congress- the biggest bunch of losers who can't get a real job (that's the job I want; big paycheck and able to give myself a raise whenever, more perks than anyone you'll ever know, don't have to follow the laws I write that everyone else has to obey, travel on junkets everywhere, tax-free benefits, the most awesome retirement plan you'll ever find etc)
Your every action, public and private, is under public scrutiny
Every nut and oddball on the planet will have a personal grudge against you, so you have to watch out for them also
etc

i find it very interesting that only americans have commented on this as this is supposedly from ireland, i didnt intend on insulting any one , i felt that it was a joke and posted as a joke, so we can have a little fun with it, again no insult intended to anyone, and this is not my political view, just a joke :lol2:

by **dave-r** » 06 Aug 2008 13:20

It didn't come from Ireland of course.

I don't normally allow political debate on this message board for several reasons.
I let this one slide but kept a close eye on it.

One thing we all agree on here is our love of Challengers.
I doubt that between us there is much else we have in common.

The chances of someone being upset by any kind of political statement are pretty high. I would love to comment. But some of the members of this board might take offence. So I button my lip. Always the best political policy I find. :wink:

by **drewcrane** » 06 Aug 2008 19:19

yes it is insulting to the irish, and i will remember that in the future, as a matter of fact i will delete this post at the end of the day,im not much for politics anyway,so sorry if i insulted anyone i really apologise sincerely! :nod:

by **RedRaven** » 06 Aug 2008 21:26

Hey wheres the bar around here Im Irish and I dont even drink!!!! :mrgreen:

I read the first post and wasnt a bit insulted, some people just dont have much of a sense of humour and take offence to the slightest thing, I remember posting a kill all indians spotted around santa pod last year because of the rain haha..one of the lads on here is an indian and I dont think he took offence!!! :thumbsup:

As Dave said we are all Mopar Brothers on here...so lets talk motors and have the craic while we do how does that sound ya bunch of hill billy yanks!!!.....oh and the lebanese nut job!!!...oh and the frenchys.... :s024:

I know Im a bit nuts....not my fault Im Irish!! :biggrin:

by **dave-r** » 06 Aug 2008 21:40

Well as far as I am concerned the Irish and the French are legitimate targets for having fun taken out of them.

And the Yanks. And the Germans. Anyone with red hair. Maybe the Swiss too...

:lol:

Jokes are OK. It is politics itself that gets a little tricky sometimes. I let this thread go because it was mainly a joke.

by **drewcrane** » 06 Aug 2008 22:43

my roots are scotch/irish, but im an american,and i feel that most americans are hung up on where they come from, instead of where there at now,and i like to drink, ha funny that, im gonna go have a shot of tiquila when im done for you red cause you have a sense of humor, and yo u to dave for letting this run as long as it had,but its over now and all is good ,and no more political jokes from me :biggrin:

Those two girls would have called the cops and had him done for sexual assault but he claimed diplomatic immunity and hightailed it back to Ireland. :lol:
