    Despite your name, you frequently write with the maturity and mentality of a 15-year old. Does someone pay you to post this idiot dwabble?

    Yes, well, there are a lot of losers out there and most of them listen to talk radio and repeat what they hear.

That's if you only count seat belts, ignore everything else, and want to be contrarian and say they would have become standard very soon anyway even if he never existed. He's a hero, even if he didn't take bullets in his ass like Kerry did. Only an asshole that only understands violence would say differently.

    Politics is at its heart about how we wish the world would be. You know how I wish the world was? That the presidential races would be between two goddamn heroes. Always.
    Nice to think of this, but heroes don't necessarily make good politicians. I admire Nader alot, but he just seem unelectable--I'm not sure why.

    That is quite possible the case, much like Obama let people go nuts about his Birth Certificate for years then just said, fine, here, now stfu.

    Christ, can't we just stay on topic for a freaking change and leave the shit talking in other threads.

    I don't know if they planned it that way, but it had that effect. Masterful politics.

    Oh, but the partisan and provocative bullshit (from Oldster) is staying on topic and within the bounds of civil discourse, right?

    I sure as hell wish he would have been making cookies and tea instead of working as a Community Agitator working with groups like ACORN teaching how to add people like Daffy Duck, Howard Huge and Nuttie Bar to Democratic voter rolls.

    Nader was/is a big a nut, in his own way, as Ron Paul.

    Romney: Made his money by flipping businesses like you'd flip a house.
    If you think that is all there is to his business, there is no arguing with you. I suspect however, you understand much more than this.

    But yes, sure, why not.

    But lets stay on the topic of tax returns, I think it is something we should be able to see.
    I didn't start paying attention to politics until 2008, or slightly before. But I don't see them as being any different.

    Regardless, I think tax returns are fairly irrelevant, except for any potential conflicts of interest that they may shed light on. But that's really no reason to release them publicly.

    I typed up a lengthy response and then deleted it, laughing all the way!
