    Already posted with much more class.

    And for you to think that a presidential candidate in this day and age could just get up and go to Hawaii without announcing it just proves that all you are is a hater who will make even the most absurd anti-Obama arguments.

    BTW, I liked your lie of a post about being a Democrat. Actually, I lied. I saw through it like a McDonalds hamburger wrapper, you phony.

    This thread just turns your stomach.

    Some people have just no sense of decency.

    I've been here for a while lil Punk.

    For the Record, I don't deny that she is ill. And I only wish the best for her. But why isn't he on a plane now. And why add another swing state before he leaves.

    Oh, that hurts.

    Why insult him? Why does it matter to you where he is or when he goes?

    There are people named "Ling Ling?" That's like naming somebody Smith Smith. There are thousands of Chinese posters here, I'm sure somebody could clear this up.

    it is uncommon to use just one name in chinese culture. Have you ever wondered why they always say Uncle Mutombo or Big Yao?

    Little Ling or Ling Ling are very popular names to call someone you are familar with. If you are not familar with them you would just use their entire name.

    McCain leaves campaign to go to Washington to try to help economy.

    Obama leaves campaign to see grandmother who is gravely sick.

    Old Man Rock leaves dignity to go post some more crap on an internet forum.

    I seriously don't get why anybody bothers responding to CaseyH anymore.

    It's like he's that guy driving 15mph on the highway.

    Arguing for the sake of argument gets old... change lanes, move on.

    I am not naive. I knew what I posted would get me hammered. But look at this board it is just a microcosm of the nation. The worst sleaze on this board has com from left wing posters about Palin.

    I've been a member on this board for a while but look how much hate I get because I post what Obama said about his Grandma. Imagine how much more McCain will get if he attack's Obama now. The worst thing in the world right now for liberal media would be to attack Obama.

    Yet report's are that the McCain camp after John Lewis called McCain a racist and NYT attacked Cindy where ready to come out him hard. If McCain tries it now he will be hated.

    If Obama just got on a plane tonight and went to his grandma I doubt I would have posted this. But he didn't. He actually added one more swing states and cancelled 2 states that he has already wrapped up. I will acknowledge that I could be totally wrong and I won't say anything more about it accept with all more heart I hope his grandmother is okay.

    OK, you're doing that on purpose now.

    People who start fires to create their own victimhood can't be reasoned with.

    I think your posting history gets you a lot more 'hate' than this ridiculous stance on our next president.

    The sleaze goes both ways. I'm definitely in the middle but voting Obama this time. The only reason there is more sleaze about Palin (which lasted for all of 1 week) is that- news flash- there happen to be more Democrats/liberals on this board- or, better yet, more people who support Obama. McCain is not as bad as the liberals make him out to be, and the same with Obama and the conservatives. Both sides are typically overexaggerating as they tend to do in order to support their party. McCain happens to be in a situation in which he is linked with Bush, so that may be his downfall. But I'm sure he would make a better president than 2nd term Bush.

    But he hasn't helped matters by running a campaign that attacks Obama not on his ideas, but on personal connections that are dubious at best. I'm still waiting for the Obama camp to bring up G. Gordon Liddy, Jesse Helms, and some of McCain's questionable associations, but I don't think they're going to resort to this at this point.

    And Palin opens herself up to criticism. She violates almost every known, generally agreed upon principle for fair, balanced persuasion. I fully respect McCain and I think he's a much better guy than some on the board give him credit for- I really feel that he personally dislikes all the negativity but feels he has no choice. But as for Palin? She's blatant. Now if there's someone to be afraid of out of all 4, it's definitely her.

    If McCain knew what a computer was, I'd be convinced that OMR is actually John McCain.
