Can someone explain to me this ad?

[RoadDawg]

sounds like you ...


politcal threads are not allowed on AO... including those disquised as "I don't mind looking like and idiot by acting like I don't get something as long as bush gets dissed in the proccess"

Democrats no wonder you guys never win....

How many times has President George W Bush messed up in his speeches? TO me the ad made me not want to vote for Bush anymore then Kerry's make me want to vote for him. Both sides seem to be better at attacking the other then giving me a GOOD reason to vote for them. I know Political threads aren't allowed. You must not have been browsing the FC lately. More and more "conservative" and bashing "liberal" threads have been around in the past 3 months but when something from a Dem's point of view pops up it's closed, most of the time on the same subject. If none are allowed then WHY is this one still open?

My previous response was in answer to the question you asked,. You don't see Bush ads of him screaming cause people see his mistakes and misfortunes on TV or any book store.

This is the problem with america we listen to our feelings too much. Sometimes doing the right thing doesn't feel good.

So the democrats are wacko because they speak loudly? Ever read the Cooper Union Address by Lincoln? http://showcase.netins.net/web/creat...hes/cooper.htm Several passages in this speech were practically shouted. Its called adding emphasis. And read through the speech, because it is fantastic, and something we just don't hear nowadays.

This line isnt really pertinent to the matter at hand, but its great anyways. From the Cooper Union Address:

Neither let us be slandered from our duty by false accusations against us, nor frightened from it by menaces of destruction to the Government nor of dungeons to ourselves. LET US HAVE FAITH THAT RIGHT MAKES MIGHT, AND IN THAT FAITH, LET US, TO THE END, DARE TO DO OUR DUTY AS WE UNDERSTAND IT.

That's exactly what I mean DO OUR DUTY AS WE UNDERSTAND IT. Not DO whatever will make us feel good. DO our DUTY!

"Do your duty as you understand it" means doing what you feel is right. Lincoln's speech was regarding slavery in the United States, so this speech wasnt exactly in support of government policy.

so his feelings were right. What I'm saying is that emotions are deceiving. You found ONE example of feelings being on track .... wanna bet I can list 20 bad decisions due to feelings without searching online or in a book for them?

You still haven't centradicted what I first said.
