1. Very telling.

Looks like we have two fine pukes and one Dem still running.

2. Hillary didn't vote for the bankruptcy bill

Nor did she vote for Bush's crazy energy bill- or for protecting abusive corporations from class actions- or against limiting credit card interest rates.

Obama, on the other hand- did.

So get your facts straight.

3. bs

4. Sorry pal, you're wrong

Her only vote was for a version of the bill in 2001 that included a poison pill provision that assured that the Republicans wouldn't pass it.

Like I said, get your facts straight

9. Obama voted against limiting credit card interest at 30% because

it was TOO HIGH - he wanted a 22% top limit. A senate-approved 30% cap would lock that amount in and make it near to impossible to improve on it, so he voted against it.

14. BANKRUPTCY BILL facts for mewling hillary zombies

Clinton Not Voting

Bankruptcy Bill (S.420, As Amended )
Clinton Yea
Obama not in Senate
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=107&session=1&vote=00036

It is telling that you zeroed in on the Bankruptcy Bill rather than address the Iraq War Resolution and illegal invasion of Iraq, a universally acknowledged crime against humanity by any standard, the Kyle Lieberman Bill which desperately pines for more innocent blood, the Patriot Act and the Torture Pledge. Democrats are Democrats precisely because of these issues. We don't reward killing and torturing, esp when asserted merely to appear tough.

5. Hillary and Obama. Barely different.

John Edwards, more liberal than either of them, yet also barely different

7. Don't get fooled by fancy graphics.

That's just a cartoon and I seriously doubt that it reflects anything more scientific than the perceptions of the person who drew it.

12. Actually I believe it was derived from this site

http://www.politicalcompass.org/

Take the political compass quiz and find out where you fall. It is pretty fascinating. My final score: Economic Left/Right -6.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian -5.44

In the Libertarian Left quadrant.

6. Always put clustter bombs ( the landmine bomb) Opposed by lady Di unbecoming of 1st lady.

8. They're all Pukes in way or another

Obama voted for Bush energy bill, voted each time to fund the war.

Obama's Yes votes to continue funding the war every year is inconsistent with his anti-war rhetoric.

I don't like any of the candidates, to be honest, but I think Obama is the least objectionable so I vote for him!

10. Excellent, thanks
