Michael Moore offers terrible reasons to vote for Obama

varwoche said:
Wrong. You posted false quotations.

Wrong again. You linked to a blog which linked somewhere else that contained the Moore piece.

Nonsense of a high order. You should know as well as I do that in many key policy areas (such as Iraq) that McCain favors a continuation of Bush policy.

Amazing. You are wrong on all 3 points.

  1. there are no false quotes
  2. there is a direct link (click on Michael Moore in the OP)
  3. McCain is not Bush, but he is a Republican, that's what really bothers you
 
IMO, McCain will not only continue the Bush/Cheney Policy in Iraq, but will go further, and if Elected, will have the USA invading or "bomb bomb bomb"ing Iran by the end of his term.

Only time will tell.

TAM:)

Amazing indeed! These comments are so disconnected from reality that it leads me to wonder if posts aren't bleeding over from unrelated threads. :confused:

As anyone who bothers to look will quickly see, the quotes in the OP are false. There is not a direct link in the OP -- there are no quotes of Moore in the blog that RM linked to. As to #3, the mind-reading department is down the aisle and to the left.

Which is nonsense of a high order since all candidates will continue the Bush policy in some way according to the statements they've made. The post you were correcting had errors, but this was not one of them.

I expect this sort of goofiness from TP but not from you.

Of issues that are of high importance to voters (such as Iraq and not campaign finance reform), name one issue where McCain's policies differ significantly from Bush's.

Let's play the original point. Iraq. Bush is already in a withdrawal strategy in Iraq. All of the candidates have withdrawal strategies. Obama and Hillary pledge a faster withdrawal, but leave enough conditions in their statements that there is leeway to do it more slowly.

The major difference in their Iraq stances is the least important one. The retroactive (i didnt support it) one. A vote for any candidate is a vote for Iraq withdrawal.

I encourage you to review the OP with your magnifying glass.

Bush recently announced that tours of duty in Iraq would be 12 months instead of 15. But since the change only applied to troops that were not already in Iraq, it will have absolutely no effect while Bush remains in office. One the day he leaves office, troop levels in Iraq will be higher than when the "surge" was announced.

The truth is that Bush will not withdraw from Iraq because that would be admitting failure. If you have been paying attention, you should have noticed that John McCain has been busy painting himself into the same corner.
 
As seems to be the rule around here, this thread is well on its way to derailment by petty tangent.

"That link didn't take me DIRECTLY to Moore's article, it took me to an intermediary article that had a direct link to Moore's article!"

Let's just cut to the chase and have everyone start looking for grammatical and spelling errors in their opponents' posts to complain about.
