> “Why would I attempt to show that Obama has ever done anything conservative. I NEVER said he did. Where are you getting this absurd notion from?

You are arguing with a ghost - not me.”
__________________________________________________________

You seem to be having trouble keeping track of the conversation. Let me help you.

It started in a post I made to ‘Moolah’ in which I stated “Thanks Moolah for bringing some sanity to this thread. It seems that many who disagree w/ Kristol and Hume’s assessment have not been paying attention to Obama’s socialist agenda.”

Although my comment was made to someone else, yout decided to provide your two cents worth in post #113:
>Like heck! We’ve been paying attention. We’ve also been paying attention to McCain’s swing towards the left on so many issues. Are we supposed to ignore that?”

To which I replied in post #198: “I haven’t suggested that you ignore anything. However, if you have been paying attention you would see many differences between Obama & McCain.

1. Obama & Clinton both want to repeal the Bush tax cuts.

2. Obama & Clinton both opposed Roberts & Alito as Supreme Court justices.

3. Obama & Clinton both want government controlled health care.

4. Obama & Clinton both oppose building a fence along our border. You, like I, don’t like McCain’s position on immigration, but Obama & Clinton are even worse.

If you want more, go look at Obama’s 100% liberal voting record.

Now, perhaps you can give me one example of where Obama is more conservative than McCain.”

To my challenge that you “give me one example of where Obama is more conservative than McCain” you replied in post #228: > “Huh? That’s laughable.

> This argument that we have to accept McCain as is is also laughable.
> If he wants to be president then he should make promises that APPEAL to the GOP base.
> Instead he’s going after the “blowin’ in the wind” base.

> Does he just want his portrait on the wall of the White House or does he really want to lead from a conservative point of view?

So in post #281 I replied: “281
I provided a list of various ways in which McCain is more conservative than Obama and simply asked that you provide one in which Obama was more conservative.

Not only did you fail to mention a single vote, policy or position (or anything else for that matter) that could support your argument, you distorted my post by claiming “This argument that we have to accept McCain as is is also laughable”.

I made no argument that we have to accept McCain. I simply asked you to provide one fact that might support your argument.

Your response shows that you have no sustainable argument, only the same old complaints against McCain that you repeat over and over again. Perhaps you don’t relize how lame that appears.”

So... rabbr, I now say to you that if you can’t keep up with the conversation, you could at least show a little class rather than to blame your failure on the other person.

LOL. I NEVER claimed Obama was in any way conservative. Why would I try to prove he was?

What the hell is your point?

All I ever said was McCain is NOT the conservative I want in office.

You gave me a list of things that shows that McCain is supposedly a conservative and yet you fail to show the liberal learnings he has (CFR, gang of 14, etc.)

This really is one of the funniest conversations I've had here in a long time.

You keep trying to get me to prove a thesis I NEVER stated. Why?
