Re: Terrified
While I think Obama is a piece of trash, McCain is no bed of roses either. In the end they are both politicians and we know they are lying at some point or another because their mouths are moving.

Re: Terrified
Yeah. I wanted Fred to win. McCain has his issues, but I'll take him 100x over Obama. Sadly I think the Paul people are going to hand it to the commie..perot style circa 1992.Mr.Scott wrote:While I think Obama is a piece of trash, McCain is no bed of roses either.

Re: Terrified
My worst fears have been realized though. McCain took overthe reins and the Republicans have turned left, while the Democrats are jitterery to introduce antigun legislation, The leftist Republicans have now become more emboldened. McCain and Bush enthusiastically endorse banning evil looking guns. The newly emboldened Republicans are the once writing the assault weapon bans while the Democrats are afraid to broach the subject.
The Republican party not only is not what it used to be, it isn't what many of us think. John McCain and W. Bush are more aligned with Teddy Kennedy and Nikita Khruschev than they are with Reagan or Goldwater.
Slo Wheat is looking better and better.

Re: Terrified
What is Slo Wheat? I've seen this term posted a few times on this board and, despite googling for information, I can't find a thing about it. What is this referring to?Liberty wrote:Slo Wheat is looking better and better.

Slo wheat is a reference to some third party that most would concede doesn't have a chance of winning. A term Frankie the Yankee invented.drw wrote:What is Slo Wheat?

Slo Wheat could also mean The Libertarian Party

Re: Terrified
I see. I don't get the reference or what it means, or how wheat and its speed has anything to do with politics, but then again... Anyway, thanks for the answer. :)Liberty wrote:A term Frankie the Yankee invented.

Re: Terrified
I wasn't clear at all. Slo Wheat could be any third party, its just a made up name to represent a third party (usually the Libertarian Party). Has nothing to do with being Slow or Wheat even. I used the term as homage to Frankiedrw wrote:I see. I don't get the reference or what it means, or how wheat and its speed has anything to do with politics, but then again...

I am certain lots of people wanted to do things to Frankie but personally speaking I doubt paying him homage was one of them.Liberty wrote:I wasn't clear at all.
