    I have the feeling he thinks he can just invoke the name Reagan like its some kinda of secret weapon like garlic to a vampire or something childish like that.

    We have posters that do nothing but drop a name as flamebait like Beck and then run like cockroaches lets hope he isnt another one.

    Well it's a first for me. I heard the lefts talking points.
    Blame Bush
    Blame Reagan
    Blame the tea party
    Blame Rush
    Never talk blame for anything the left does.
    Obey Obama.
    But never heard the blame Bush's daughter one.

    How else can this statement be reconciled, bomac, other than 'Wendy Davis abandoned her child':

    "It's one of the most striking details in Texas State Senator Wendy Davis's life uncovered by Dallas Morning News reporter Wayne Slater: in 2005, Davis, apparently eager to advance her career, relinquished custody of not just her child with her second husband, Jeffry Davis, but also her first child from another marriage.
    "It's not a good time for me right now” Davis said at the time, explaining her decision, according to Jeffry Davis.

    I read the first twenty comments. The worst thing I saw was calling Democrats Demoncrats. I did not see any crying to referees.

    The sad thing is this thread shows why America is so disfunctional today, neither side has a shread of class. Now back your finger pointing and whining.

    Bravo, the right motif. "I do not like what they say so I will discredit them."

    Neither are these daughters.

    Right wing smear campaign. The daughters explained the situation which they also lived. None of the RW propagandists lived it.

    No different than the right wing smear campaign about where Obama was born.

    I don't put any stock in what Davis' daughters say simply b/c she is their mother and what's at stake here... a governorship which would benefit them also. Call it 'human nature'. I wouldn't be surprised if their letters of support for Davis were written by someone else. We're talking about politics and we all know how dirty and corrupt it is and that includes both sides of the isle......

    It's on record that Davis lost custody of her daughters and court-ordered to stay away from alcohol/drugs and no male 'companion' w/her b/t the hours of 10 pm and 6 am when she had visitation w/them.... I wouldn't exactly call her "Mother Of The Year" would you?

    Or the left-wing smear campaign against Sarah Palin and her daughters either.

    Their smear campaign wasn't just against Palin and her girls, particularly Bristol, it also involved Todd and their Downs Syndrome toddler son!

    You're right down in the sewer when you attack a child.......

    But it was fine to go after the Clintons daughter, and the Obamas daughters, one cannot claim the high ground when doing exactly what you condem the other side for doing.

    Wow! Those work great! I mean, my arguments were destroyed, & my lower lip began to tremble.. boy, i sure hope no one figures out that they don't have to discuss the issues, they could just deflect with witty insults.. that would make debating things a lot harder. If all you had to do was think up clever insults, & didn't really have to debate the issues, how would anyone know the pros or cons of the issues? Why, they'd be distracted with all the wit & ridicule & forget all about the subject at hand! :roflol:

    It would make debating a lot easier, though, if you didn't know anything. Instead of having to come up with a rebuttal, or have ideas of your own, you could just rip out some cutesy ad hominems, & think you're debating! :roll:

    but i can see i am way behind in this.. some of you guys have had a lot of practice, while i've been wasting my time thinking & crafting rational arguments.. i'll have to really up my game to compete in this new arena..

    Baloney, they were there and you were not. Their facts seem very reasonable as opposed to the right wing smear campaign. The right wants to talk about anything other than her policies. Elizabeth Warren got the same treatment. What should be important is who they are today and not who they might have been at 20.

    Both sides attack do attack sometimes the character of the opponent. I prefer to see the current facts about the politicians. His/her stand on issues. His/her proposals if elected. Yes, character could affect my vote. But I did vote for Clinton and would have voted for Kennedy despite their character flaws.

    How many Presidents and other politicians could get elected in this "gotcha" era? Harding, FDR, Ike and JFK had their mistresses and roving eyes. Ford and Reagan were divorced. Bush 1 did some very dirty work for the CIA. Bush 2 was a drug addict.

    Oh, wait, Wendy is a woman. No libido, no vices, no scandals. Woman are not allowed to act as men.

    It is not on the record what the circumstances were at the time and I believe that Jeffery Davis is dead and cannot give his version. Maybe some of the lawyers at the time might have an opinion but they do have to be careful about client confidentiality.

    These smear can be put out because the other players can't say anything. That is very convenient for the gossipers.

    Oh, gee, the "so's your mother" argument.

    You will never find any post of mine where I went along w/that despicable (*)(*)(*)(*).... attacking other people's kids and I don't give a rat's ass what political party they belong to!

    That's one reason why I dislike John McCain, poking fun at teenager Chelsea Clinton's looks. That was a low-life, vile thing to say about her and someone should have slapped him upside the head the minute he said that, which I think was at a dinner party. Did McCain ever apologize to Chelsea? Probably not...

    There were some derogatory comments about the Obama girls and Obama said that kids should be off limits. I don't recall him saying 'his' but kids in general, so the comments about his girls stopped, but the blood thirsty vultures kept going at the Palin kids .... it would have been nice to hear Obama show some character and speak up in the Palin kids defense.... but he didn't, did he? NO, he didn't......

    Any so-called 'adult' who goes after his/her opponent's underage kids is beneath contempt..... and to quote Obama.... "PERIOD!"

    Yes, let's use that argument, shall we? Watch how interchangeable that your argument used to defend Wendy Davis is when I change the words around to defend Sarah Palin:

    What you can't stomach is having to face up to the fact that your side has engaged in the exact same garbage, only 100 times worse with Palin. Going so far as to attack her children, including her baby son that has Down's Syndrome. Remember when David Letterman, another lefty, brutally attacked Sarah Palin's 14-year-old daughter on national TV by suggesting that she was having sex with Alex Rodriguez the baseball player? Letterman had to apologize, which looked fitting considering the multiple affairs that he was having with his staffers at the time which certainly embarrassed his wife.

    Yes, the left loves to smear and drag conservative names through the mud, but when another leftist gets called on their own slutty and chagrinous behavior, the left is quick to play victim against those "meanie" right-wingers.

    While I do not condone what this idiot did - it give the left a chance to ignore the lies Davis told about her "hard life"

    Like Hillary Ms Davis would not be where she is today without a Sugar Daddy
