Palin's Unsavory Political Associates

Seems kinda grasping and desperate, especially considering Republicans are definitely not in any position to criticize the integrity, class and modesty of anyone else.

Why is it the only defense for Obama is that the republicans are just as bad? Makes me wonder how anyone is going to vote for either one of these turds.

The main reason is that we are going to be stuck with one pair or the other for the next four years. Which pair do you feel will hurt you less? That's your choice.

Actually, the main defence for Obama is that "guilt by association" is a McCarthyist propaganda tactic.

If you want to split hairs though, the Republicans are actually worse. For every Reverend Wright there is a Pastor Muthee. And while Obama has denounced Wright and stated in no uncertain terms he doesn't agree with his message, Palin has kept shtum on her witch-hunting spiritual guide. McCain, for his part, had the decency to repudiate Rod "America was founded to wipe out the evil of Islam" Parsley, but not before aggressively seeking his endorsement during the primaries.

Also, for every Ayers there is a whole army of Keatings and Singlaubs. But even though the right has more dirt under their fingernails, the Republicans don't mention some of their own also served on the same board with Obama and Ayers and the Dems don't mention the other four of the "Keating Five" were democrats.

Best to make your decisions based on policy rather than the company the candidates keep.

Yep...you're right. It sounds similar to what I was trying to say...http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/1296037-post51.html....

Yeah, that's why every single Obama ad against McCain shows him hugging Bush saying, "He's just like him.". Obama and McCain are just the same. Proven liars that want nothing but power.

Nice try. Another swing and miss. (YAWN)

A more discerning person might have noted that Obama's argument is based on McCain's overwhelming support for Bush's policies and not merely his presence in Bush's company. You discredit yourself by conflating McCain's superficial attack on Obama with Obama's more substantial attack on McCain.

Just as bad? No. Far, far worse? Yes.

Nice. So the poison that kills you slowly is better than the poison that kills you quickly. YAY poison! Everyone should drink it!

My point is that neither one is good and these two criminal parties should be starved out rather the voters making grand claims to the high ground (which is now a mole hill) and continue to feed these little piggies the votes. Then of course everyone spends the next four years whining and complaining about the same problems with politicians.

Nice. But I bet you go cast your vote for McCain/Palin. ;)
