Grumpy grandpa is not getting any younger.  Well, that&amp;#039;s not very respectful but I&amp;#039;m a little concerned about his age.  Plus, if he&amp;#039;s our next president I won&amp;#039;t be referring to him that way.  I will honor the position.  :-)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Susan Hundley (Via Facebook)</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 20 Feb 2008 13:40:00 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Third Party Viability</title><link>http://randythomas.org/2008/02/14/third-party-viability/#comment-1390146</link><description>Both Obama and Hillary are *completely* against everything I believe in public policy and Obama is more of a Marxist than she is.  I don&amp;#039;t like McCain but like I mentioned, he is pro-life, he promised to appoint conservative Judges and will keep the military strong and on alert against terrorists.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think &amp;quot;Obamacans&amp;quot; are being enticed with the &amp;quot;tickling of the ears&amp;quot; affect.&lt;/br&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">RThomasETC</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 20 Feb 2008 13:29:00 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Third Party Viability</title><link>http://randythomas.org/2008/02/14/third-party-viability/#comment-1390145</link><description>&amp;quot;Look,&amp;quot; he said, &amp;quot;Whether Hillary, Obama or McCain gets elected, we&amp;#039;re going to have a Democrat in the White House. Might as well be one you like.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What do you think about the above quote?  Got it off of someone&amp;#039;s blog today.  &lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And what do you think about Republican&amp;#039;s voting for Obama instead of McCain, voters being refered to as &amp;#039;Obamacan&amp;#039;s&amp;#039;?  I can&amp;#039;t hardly stand both Hillary and McCain.  If I voted for who I liked of the 3, right now it would be Obama. :::: cannot believe I just typed that ::::.  I say IF it was for the &amp;#039;likability factor&amp;#039; which that&amp;#039;s not exactly how I&amp;#039;d vote.&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I just don&amp;#039;t trust McCain.  &lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Susan Hundley (Via Facebook)</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 20 Feb 2008 12:12:00 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Third Party Viability</title><link>http://randythomas.org/2008/02/14/third-party-viability/#comment-1390144</link><description>Love ya&amp;#039; back.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;... could you send me the letter?&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;pllllleeeeaaassseeee :)&lt;/br&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">RThomasETC</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 20 Feb 2008 09:53:00 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Third Party Viability</title><link>http://randythomas.org/2008/02/14/third-party-viability/#comment-3486823</link><description>&amp;lt;a href="http://www.constitutionparty.com/" onclick='return !window.open("http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.constitutionparty.com%2F&amp;amp;h=af3ebaab052ecc3ad91fc3e5946a733b");' onmousedown="this.href='';" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span&amp;gt;http://www.constitutionpar&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;wbr&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/wbr&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span class="word_break"&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;ty.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Sure love you!&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Stephen Black (Via Facebook)</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 19 Feb 2008 22:49:00 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Third Party Viability</title><link>http://randythomas.org/2008/02/14/third-party-viability/#comment-1390143</link><description>John McCain refused to listen to the ideas of why marriage must be between one man and one woman.  He refused to vote for the amendment.  We corresponded a few years ago. He sent me a THREE page letter-rant about all the reasons why he couldn&amp;#039;t vote for the amendment... it was nothing but spin!  I was really angry with his political posing.  I told him then and I would tell him now... I will NEVER endorse him for president.  I do NOT trust him.  I have watch him closely since that time... and since then he as continued to link arms with the most liberal Senators on ridiculous items... like amnesty and censoring conservatives.  Okay... I think you get me point.  Bottom line... McCain is a politician with his OWN agenda.  He is not serving people.  It is so ungodly I can hardly stand it... it is evil what is going on in politics!&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here&amp;#039;s their web site.  You should read what there about there...&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.constitutionparty.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;&amp;lt;span&amp;gt;http://www.constitutionpar&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;wbr&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/wbr&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span class="word_break"&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;ty.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Sure love you!&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Stephen Black (Via Facebook)</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 19 Feb 2008 22:49:00 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Third Party Viability</title><link>http://randythomas.org/2008/02/14/third-party-viability/#comment-1390141</link><description>I think a third party will have to be built from both the ground up and the top down.  There will have to be leaders who will have to utilize the grassroots in a way that actually involves the grass roots in its formation.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;... but still leadership. :)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">RThomasETC</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 15 Feb 2008 10:55:03 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Third Party Viability</title><link>http://randythomas.org/2008/02/14/third-party-viability/#comment-1390140</link><description>I feel you on that one!  I wonder if a third party is something that needs to be built from the ground up or the top down.  Is it possible for a third party to successfully win the presidency?

I will not be voting for him... but when I filling the arrow by his name here in Oklahoma it will be voting AGAINST Hillarack Obamaton!  I cannot feel peaceful about this election AT ALL!  I am so discussed with both parties too!  Have you heard to the Constitutional Party?  I am looking at this party now.  It seems to be growing.  I believe Alan Keyes is now a member of it.&lt;/br&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Stephen Black (Via Facebook)</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 15 Feb 2008 00:59:00 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
