No VP for hillary. But she needs to tell all the brainless women who would have voted for her just because she is a woman to vote for barrack. Then he can pick a VP who will pull in the blue collar vote and he should be able to beat McCain.

I get the feeling that it\'s not a smart idea to revive the political thread, but here goes nothing.

An interesting fact: Presumptive Democratic Vice Presidential Candidate Joe Biden sponsored the RAVE Act. That\'s the law that, in part, makes it legal to punish club/bar owners for holding a concert that "promotes drug use".

Now I\'m not saying this makes Obama/Biden worse than the alternative, or that you should vote based upon your ability to smoke a bowl at a Breakfast show, but considering the discussions we had on dotinfo about this law when it was passed, it\'s worth reminding everybody who sponsored it.

(For the record, it was co-sponsored by Chuck Grassley, Orrin Hatch, Joseph Lieberman, Strom Thurmond, Patrick Leahy and Richard Durbin)

Isn\'t Lieberman tight with McCain?

Lieberman is, as far as I have heard, being discussed as McCain\'s VP for the sole purpose of testing how the general public would react to a Republican candidate with a pro-choice VP.

And this is a bad thing why?

When exactly did I call it a "bad thing"? Just throwing it out there as information, since we did discuss the RAVE Act when it was passed.

What I meant is, if anything this is a positive for Biden.

So what your first post could have said Yoda, is

"I think that is a positive thing! Joe Biden\'s great! Go Obama!"

Then you wouldn\'t look like a jerk...

Jeez... I must have really done something to **** you off... It seems like every comment I make, I get a negative response back from you...

there should be a "pointless arguing with each other for no reason" thread

Or a forum.. in which case every thread would find itself under at some turn.

McDooze doesn\'t even know how many freakin\' houses he owns. what a joke.

Yoda, I just feel bad. You often say things which, on screen, make you look like a jerk. and people get angry and argue with you, and I figure I\'m doin you a favor by lettin you know when your bein a jerk. Which makes me a jerk. But at least we both know now.

and i hate bruce springsteen.

Maybe I am a jerk, I don\'t know. Believe it or not, a lot of times, I know that I disagree with the mindset of most of the people on the board, and what I say will make me come across as a jerk. But if I didn\'t say anything, then what good would this "forum" be? I still love the music this band puts out, but maybe I\'ve run my course with the fans. Let\'s try this one out (and I\'m not pointing any fingers at anyone)

- I\'m wrong because I speak out against drug use
- I\'m wrong because I speak out against drunk driving
- I\'m wrong because I don\'t think Synergy is the best thing since sliced cheese
- I\'m wrong because I don\'t want to hear a 30+ minute jam when I see the band
- I\'m wrong because I think Ahoy! is a song

Am I wrong for the band? Am I not in their demographic anymore? Maybe so, maybe not. That has yet to be decided.
