If 95% of them isn't an acceptable answer. Then:

The best president of the 20th century versus the worst. This is a tough choice.

Come on, let's be reasonable. FDR wasn't the worst President of the 20th century.

Does he even have any views? Or does he just appear out of nowhere with the only visible goal of being a f***king creep? HP.

Wow, two on a row? And from two posters I'm usually not in excellent terms with? That must be my lucky day!

I don't know, the second one isn't as good as the one where you tell Obamanation to DIAF for his Akinesque abortion post.

The end goal of the conservative movement is to return women to their status as property of fathers and husbands. The only way to achieve that is by making abortion totally illegal. So a 20 week restriction is not enough.

Why are almost all of these choices awful? I just found out about this website and I'm starting to regret signing up. Why is Lincoln winning???

You're still in time to leave. It will probably be for the best of all involved.

Glorious news!

The horrific Barrycare will thrash Shaheen repeatedly Alex sink style.

Is Barrycare a better candidate than Scott Brown?

A statue of George Washington would be a better candidate than Scott Brown

So I recently called out TNF at a rally, for being a Kenyan Muslim Socialist, and he have me a dirty look; and okay I know this is going to sound crazy, but I read his lips and I think he swore at me!!! I mean come on, I support sticking up for yourself, but TNF's conduct goes TOO FAR.

Fat quote pyramid!

If Obamacare is such an albatross, why do polls after polls have people want to keep it and improve on it? The anti-Obamacare sentiment is coming from people from the right, who will never vote for Democrats anyway.

Anyway barring any kind of scandal or massive screw up by Obama in the next two years, the Democrats are going to win the WH in 2016.

Just keep telling yourself Obamacare is popular.  
Besides, nothing is really being "fixed" in Obamacare - no Democrat has made suggestions on how to "actually fix Obamacare"

Here's a serious question: if Liberal voters and Democrat voters are so smart and so loyal to the Democrat Party, then how come the "Democrat voters" didn't show up in the special election in Florida ?

Sink is not as attractive as Obama, but wouldn't Democrat voters want to show their support for Obamacare and the Dem Party, instead of staying home and watching the Voice?  

Hillary is not going to win if stoners, hipsters, and minorities forget to vote.

I never said the law is popular, my point is if it is this huge albatross, why aren't people clamoring to repeal it? And Democrats always have issues in mid-term elections, their base(young, minorities, disenfranchised etc.) just don't show up for mid-term elections, while the GOP have an older, whiter base that is more likely to show up to the polls.

I mean how bad is your memory? We just saw this play out in 2010 and Obamacare proved to be a non-issue two years later. So why the hell would it be an issue in 2016, when the law has in place for well over 3 years now?

How can the Democrat Party claim they have the support of the People, when their own voters can't be bothered to show up to midterm elections?  Doesn't that strike you as non-committal to Congressional Democrats?  If I were a Democrat Senator I would be pissed that these young people and minorities aren't bothering to show up to vote. 

Obamacare is mandatory as of 2014, so citizens won't feel the pain of higher premiums until 2014.  If Obamacare is so popular, then why did Democrats lose so big in 2010

I think Obamacare contributed to Obama losing 4 million voters in 2010.  But also Romney ran a bad campaign, and Obama has a nicer smile and personality (he gets the young ladies and young men excited to vote for him).  Also, Black and Hispanic voters came out for Obama and not the other (white) democrats.  A drop in Black and Hispanic turnout would have hurt Obama significantly.

Obama lost votes in 2012 because he was an incumbent,  not because of Obamacare. If the GOP couldn't use Obamacare to win in 2012, then it isn't going to work in 2016. I mean we already have poll after poll showing that people are against repeal, and this just a few months after a terrible debut.

Hahaha, Obama is the ONLY incumbent to actually LOSE voters in a re-election victory.  (Not counting FDR's 3rd term).  You are admitting that Obama IS LESS POPULAR IN 2012 than in 2008. 

"Obama is the only incumbent to lose votes, as long as you don't count that other president who lost vote and proves my claim wrong."

Hahaha, you mean the "dictator" FDR's 3rd term -

The fact that you're an idiot and think that the fact that being Democratically elected more than twice makes you a dictator doesn't change the fact that you were dead wrong about Obama being the first incumbent to lose votes

It was never "ruled unconstitutional". The law changed after FDR died.

I'm sure most people who get abortions are sluts that don't want to/can't handle children and want to keep sleeping around. That's not right.

please diaf

OK, that was a bit harsh and uncalled for. I'll give you two options:

1) Try spending some time as a woman, see all the sh*t you go through every day, end up with an unwanted pregnancy for whatever reason, and find yourself discussing the possibility of an abortion. And then, let's see if you change your "views".

2) DIAF

And one of those reasons could be that she is a filthy slut. They don't want to be pregnant, just sleep around.

Or if she isn't a slut, then she made the wrong decision not to wait for marriage/a stable relationship.

The whole point of saying "for whatever reason" was trying to explain that the reason (or, more accurately, a pathetically clueless man's understanding of what the reason might be) isn't really what matters in this debate. But I shouldn't be surprised you fail to understand even that basic thing.

Sorry, I was just getting sick of all the arguing and just wanted to go on to the next one.

This is a political forum. We argue here.

Castro, and anyone who says Davis needs to re-examine their values.

You are aware that Davis didn't execute political opponents, right?

Davis fought for the enslavement of a large group of people, and he fought for the system that often murdered blacks for "not knowing their place".

I'm sure most people who get abortions are sluts that don't want to/can't handle children and want to keep sleeping around. That's not right.

I'm sure your argument is based upon a plethora of first-hand experiences with women who have chosen to have an abortion. They tend to rave about them between taking sips of overpriced cocktails as they sit in shady nightclubs. "How was your abortion, Maggie?" "A little on the heavy side this time around, I think next time I'll go in a bit earlier so that I can recover faster and get back to hitting the streets."

Or, maybe, it's usually a decision that weighs on them heavily and they're caught in some kind of indecisive emotional turmoil for perhaps the remainder of their days. Perhaps a smidgeon of empathy is in order?

Imagine you're a woman. I'll let you settle in to that mindset. Ready? You had unprotected sex with your boyfriend thinking that you were unlikely to conceive because of where you are in your cycle. You have been waking up before going to class feeling ill for a few days now. You nervously buy a kit and test yourself at home to find it was what you suspected. You're pregnant. You make an appointment with your doctor to confirm.

Your boyfriend is staunchly anti-abortion, as are your family and many of your friends. But you're on the fence. Right now, you're studying and have invested thousands of dollars into your education. When you start your family, you want to ensure you're able to support it. If you have the baby now, you'll likely be unable to continue your education and will have to wait an indeterminate amount of time before you can continue. In the meantime, all of your savings are invested into this and you don't have the income to properly support your child right now. Neither, really, does your boyfriend and family (who also, incidentally, live on the other side of the country).

You never thought you would ever need to make this decision. Everyone around you would think you're a monster if they discovered that you were even considering it. You don't want to have an abortion, but if you decide to have this child it will throw your life and plans into chaos. If your boyfriend discovers that you had an abortion he would never speak to you again and probably attempt to ruin your reputation for doing something so fundamentally against his belief system. You're also not sure you want to settle down with this guy in the first place, let alone be connected to him for the rest of your life because of this child.

You're scared, and alone, and constantly upset. And to top it off, strangers all over the world have no qualms about spewing about how they think you're a disgusting slut for even being in this position. You'll carry this decision with you for the rest of your life. What do you do?
