I almost forgot, getting back to the original point, Romney isn't the first politician to accidentally call Obama "Osama." Ted Kennedy did it back in 2005. Geez, what is it with Massachusetts politicians and slips of the tongue? |

Hmmm...let's check what he had to say to begin the thread:
As I read it, he's asserting that Barack Obama and Osama Bin Laden are not the same, but that he thinks or feels that they have similar goals. Conversely, I entered the discussion only after these posts by THU:
In these two posts, THU is drawing a link between Senator Obama's Islamic roots and his inclination not to support him, given our current world situation. You countered him with this post:
Where you refused to acknowledge the quality of his logic, you insulted his choice of source, you cited as fact something that you cannot be sure of (given Obama's lack of Executive position on his resume), and you insulted the use of an individual's faith as an element by which a candidate should be judged. I responded that faith can be an important consideration.
How would you know my opinions or motivations without asking?

Actually it's usually liberals who try to take cheap shots at conservatives. Every single time, it's the dems who end up trying to own the republicans, and they usually end up making themselves look like what their party symbol suggests. Cheap shots, including calling a 4 Star General, and patriot a liar, and nicknaming him "Betrayus" is a real cheap shot. That's the far left for you though. |

Republicans are so fucking stupid. Are you seriously not going to vote for someone because his name sounds remotely like Osama? Jesus Christ, you guys are genious. |

It may also he has ties to muslims and grew up one himself then jumped on the Christian bandwagon to try to get more votes. I hate him since he smokes. I'd like a smoke free America and having a president who lights up could really hurt that. |

Pardon, are you referring to me? I strongly believe that Islamic schooling and family background matter. I don't think that I've ever said that I wouldn't vote for Barack Obama....nor that I'm a Republican. I can, however, spell "genius."

Does having "ties" to Muslims automatically make Barack Obama a bad person and not qualified to be president? |

no, his liberal beliefs make him a bad choice for president and the fact that he has very limited politcal experience |

Political experince doesn't mean shit. Bush has had years in the white house, and look at him. I'd rather just have someone that speaks the truth. Like Ron Paul. Or Dennis Kucinich. They are the only ones who tell it like it is. |

I'd vote for either one of them--I know what both of them stand for. The greatest danger, IMO, is that individuals come to office and change their platforms so often. The two men you mentioned would not do that--they've taken such terrible risks regarding nomination in stating their platforms that I'm sure that they'd stay on course if somehow, against significant odds, either one were elected. |

Kucinich's economic "expertise" prevents me from voting for him. Only one city has declared bankruptcy since the Great Depression. That city was Cleveland. Its mayor was a young man named Dennis Kucinich. As an aside, in 2004, if you googled the term "crapweasel," the first site on the list was Dennis Kucinich's page. However, it has since changed. |
