I just looked up Keyes itinerary:

He will run for something next in your state.

He will kill in the debates whoever he loses to in that election also!

He criticized Keys...

But, Keys are important. I couldn't start my car without them.

I have had my disagreements with you in the past, but I must admit that you are spot-on in this topic and deserving of my admiration for the gutsy stand you're taking, as well as the eloquence you are demonstrating as you devastate the "arguments" of the "shut up and do as you're told" contingent.

It's no big deal to "win an argument" when the side doing the winning has the power to call in the heavy artillery and have the other side silenced by force, as we have seen time and again in this "debate".

It's something entirely different to stand up to that bullying, and win by virtue of the power of your words

My hat's off to you, lady.

He actually WON in my state! The 2000 Alabama GOP Straw poll.

Straw President Keyes!

Admittedly, it ranks up there with Junior Class Treasurer, but it was a WIN! For some folks, those are hard to come by.....

Crack jokes if you like, but if you don't think that law has TEETH that are intended for squelching dissent, you are sadly mistaken.

Our host is not arguing with me Willie, you are.

Do we have a bet or not?

"What, precisely, are those issues?"

I've stated my issues all over this forum, I'm not interested in repeating them yet again.

"Also, do you believe that posters on FR should be allowed to campaign against George Bush."

This is THE BIG LIE. Being critical of Keyes does not equate to campaigning against Keyes and for Obama, any more than being critical of Bush over border security, government spending, or stem cell research translates into campaigning against Bush and for Kerry.

And there are plenty of threads in FR critical of Bush on many issues.

So, stop it with the lies, this site is a political discussion site, not a cheerleading site for the anointed one.

No Luis, we don't have a bet.
If Keyes wins, I don't want you to disappear.
It would be much better to keep you around where we can keep an eye on you.

In other words, you don't think he'll win either.

I thought as much.

That's always been your problem Willie, you lack the courage to put your money where your mouth is.

That's an unsanitary practice, Luis.
But at least you're being consistant in that respect.

I'm not pro-Obama, but I'm not pro-Keyes either. Keyes lost me with the Reparations BS he was spouting and carpetbagging leaves a bad taste in my mouth. This is especially true since he came out so strongly against carpetbagging when Clinton was running in NY. I'm more a Republican than an Independant, but if a man doesn't deserve my vote, he doesn't get it regardless of whether he's a Republican or not.
