I'm out on the east coast now. Philly cheesesteaks are meh. Good but not great, even from the two warring legends.Originally Posted by Chonogo

I think it's the sticks. Yeah. Pretty sure if you fry something with a stick in it, it's not unhealthy. Originally Posted by Chonogo

So you are saying the deep fried pasta is healthy if it is on a stick? I'm intrigued. Originally Posted by belfpala

I'm going to have nightmares about that Paul Ryan picture when I go to sleep.

Biden looks weirdly like Reagan in that picture.

He does, now that you mention it. He needs to lose a little weight in the cheeks though. Ryan looks like a Grand Vizier as described by Terry Pratchett in 'Interesting Times'. It might be because I just read it again, but w/e. Originally Posted by Wells

Grokan seems more independent to me. At the least, whichever side he is on, he's completely capable of owning up to the flaws of his own side. That's a good thing. Originally Posted by oblivionx

You seem very conservative. I seem very liberal. Grokan does seem much more towards the middle than anyone else that posts regularly in the political threads. Originally Posted by KingHorse

I support this video so much. While unrealistic, their example of Mexico sending drones over LA and our subsequent rage is spot on. Drone strikes make me sick. Originally Posted by GreatOak

What's the difference between drone strikes and sending in manned airplanes though? I'm with you on being against the actions, but why is it specific to drones? Originally Posted by Letmesleep

I was indeed actually referring to the actions, not the drones themselves. In other words, no difference. I want to end the ever escalating death toll. What we're gaining for what's being lost isn't equal or morally acceptable in my opinion. Originally Posted by Raybourne

Ryan got up there and tried to spout those BS talking points and Biden drilled him. Hopefully President Obama grows a pair of balls and does the same to Romney. Someone needs to call Romney on his BS.
Biden expressed the frustration Democrats have felt with Republicans playing loose with the facts.

Here's why that's a bad idea. Originally Posted by Puremallace

Who they want to appeal to is undecided voters. Undecided voters look at that sort of aggressiveness and go "How rude! I'm not sure I want to vote for that ruffian." So as a candidate, incumbent or otherwise, you want to restrain yourself enough to appear civil. Obama did a good job of this. Polls showed that undecided voters thought that both Obama and Romney were respectful towards one another. Initial polls are starting to show, however, that undecided voters were put off by Biden openly laughing at his opponent and constantly interrupting him.

Want em to post a poll on MMO champ and get a bunch of liberals to vote for Obama and then a make a huge headline about it? A ONLINE poll of 1,092 people. They posted a poll on their website and random people clicked a answer. Originally Posted by Diurdi

Making Medicare into a voucher program and trying to privatize social security is politic suicide. Expect a CRAP TON of social security ads from Dems thanks to Ryan

2012-10-12, 12:53 PM #10339DeletedI can guarantee that it wasn't a poll posted on their website. Online polls are usually done through e-mail to people of specific demographics representative of the population. Originally Posted by Puremallace

Motivating the base is a thing too. Biden did a good job of that. Great job, actually. Originally Posted by Kalyyn

Then I nodded at the TV for a second before getting into it with my roommate. (The issue wasn't important. Everything Ryan said on it was technically true, but the way he stated it was so clearly distorted I couldn't let it stand.)
