If I’m correct, however, I’d urge you to not jump to conclusions. A quick check of this guy’s posting history suggests that his “building” activities are primarily related to restoring motorcycles. Seriously, OP, did you read any of the board other than the threads about building motorcycles? ---

I’d love to get an exit poll after the November election: 1. Who did you vote for? 2. Do you think that candidate is the best-qualified person? 3. Do you wish you could’ve voted for Obama? I have a few conservative friends that’ve brought up the fact that they’d be answering that last question in the affirmative. ---

[The Clinton Body Count, via Snopes.](http://www.snopes.com/politics/clintons/bodycount.asp) I mean, it hardly needs to be said, but still the whole thing is so sad. I mean, I’d rather go back talk some more about Bill’s Penis. Did you all hear that Alex Jones has discovered [The Truth](http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/alex-jones-michelle-obama-man-who-murdered-joan-rivers-cover-it) about Joan Rivers’ death? Turns out she once made a joke about Michelle Obama being a “tranny” - which is totally true! And Obama is a gay man. And so they had Joan Rivers killed before she could blow their cover! ---

You can’t just throw unsupportable and many-times debunked nonsense in a thread and not attempt to support it. That is to say you can if you want, but doing so is a poor debating technique. Either support your thesis with facts or go away. It is that simple. ETA: Calling anyone who disagrees with you a liberal is childish. ---

I was dismayed that at the tender age of 38 ( or thereabouts), I had known 45 or so people well enough to stand graveside. More than 1 a year if we started from birth - and I didn’t. I started my count from age 9. Want to start a conspiracy theory about me? My “associates” die at an alarming rate. ---

> [@Wesley\_Clark](#): > > We do need to address the national debt. I recommend we do what California did to escape their budget crunch. Raise taxes and cut spending. Agreed, but I think how we go about it matters. We didn’t run up this debt in four years and we won’t pay it off in four years, either. Like personal investing we need to get time working on our side; start when you’re young, save a little bit a month, and keep at it. I’d like to see us do the same with the national deficit. Bring it down a bit in the next fiscal year, and the one after that. And when we get down to a balanced budget, keep at it. Run a small surplus to start paying down the debt; build up our credibility so that when a crisis hits and we need to borrow, we can. It should be a prolonged, disciplined, responsible approach. This thing we’ve been doing for decades where the deficit is a crisis, then no big deal, and then a crisis again is just not the way to do it. And to the OP, that’s one of the reasons I like the current administration. ---
