There's the little matter of the FCC.

Re: Bush/Lincoln
Explain how this documentary is in violation of FCC rules and Moore's is not.
You forgot to respond about Kerry's anti-gun voting record.

Re: Bush/Lincoln
The third I refrered to was roughly the percentage of stations Sinclair controls. (Sorry for my imprecision. I'm still in mourning over PSU.) The broadcast airways belong to the public. The old Fairness Doctrine, essentially forgotten about with the proliferation of cable, etc., in the 80s, is being invoked. The FCC can't really prevent anything. It can only penalize and take away licenses.
The gun issue. That's like abortion and I refuse to get immersed in that moral swamp. It gets ugly too quickly. If a center fire ammuntion ban is passed, a lot of us will be outlaws. But there's a better chance of Bush winning the Nobel Prize than that happening. You know it.

Re: Bush/Lincoln
It may be unlikely that a center fire ammo ban would hit his desk if he is President, but it tells you something about how he thinks. However, if enough liberals get into Congress and Kerry wins, that bill very well could hit his desk. He would be Ted Kennedy's little whipping boy, since Kennedy can't ever run for the Presidency. Kerry is the most anti-gun candidate to ever run for President and his voting record proves it. I've outlined that in other topics on this thread. This is the type of 20 year record Kerry is now trying to run away from.
Since you brought up abortion, I'll just touch on that for a minute. Many of us pro-lifers were sickened when the partial-birth abortion procedure was explained and brought to the public eye. We all thought there's no way a ban on this procedure could be voted down. But guys like Clinton, Kennedy, and yes, John Kerry, proved us wrong by being against a ban for this brutal procedure.
For those of you that do not understand how this works, I'll explain it for you. A child in the later stages of a pregnancy is turned to the breech position (feet first). Labor is induced. When everything except the head is out, a needle is inserted into the base of the babies skull and the brains are sucked out. A slight pull delivers the rest of the dead baby. Now I ask you, if the pregnancy is effecting the mother's health at this stage of the pregnancy, and the baby is delivered that far, why not deliver the baby alive and do everything you can to help that baby survive? This is a brutal practice supported by John Kerry. President Bush and conservatives in Congress made it illegal. You tell me who has moral clarity.
I've seen babies born that weigh 2 lbs and survive. My oldest son was born 2 month premature and weighed only 4 lbs. He has experienced some minor problems (hernia) after his birth, but otherwise is a perfectly healthy, very athletic, straight A student. No one will ever convince me that this procedure is necessary.
The reason you don't want to immerse in those topics is because you know that Pennsylvanians have enough common sense to know that Kerry is not on the side of most common sense thinking people in PA.

Re: Bush/Lincoln
Didn't PA vote for Clinton in 92 and 96 and Gore in 00? Didn't they pretty much share the same views as Kerry on abortion and gun control? Could it be that PA doesn't have as much common sense as you presume?

I referred to abortion merely as a comparative issue. No, LP, I didn't want to get into it because of just the very thing you did: jump head first into the swamp. For your information, there are at least a dozen (according to one of my aunts) relatives on my mother's side that were at least two months premature -- 9 of whom made it. I've got a nephew 2 1/2 months premature weighing just over 3 pounds lying in a neonatal until in Boston as we write. I'm sure every BC on here has some sort of similar connection.
There's no candidate alive -- not even W!!!--who meets all our prerequisites and who fits the moral, political, and physical ideals we have. We do the best we can and pick the man or woman who seems to be the best for both our country's needs and our own. (In a rather humorous conversation I had with a minister friend, he told me Jesus wouldn't be an acceptable candidate for a lot of neocons, considering some of the people who He associated with during His last three years.)
But here on BC you clearly consider yourself the moral arbiter and actually seem to despise those positions different from yours -- or else seem to classify them as almost demonic.
It must be nice to be so cocksure of everything. That sure isn't the way you came across when we used to bale hay.
What are you going to say about those Pennsylvanians when the state goes to Kerry?

I never once labeled myself as the moral arbiter. You did it. However, I do believe that anyone that supports partial birth abortions is demonic. I didn't do anything but exactly describe that procedure, and if you support it, then shame on you.
Now I'm "cocksure" of everything because I state my beliefs? What does that make you?
And yes, I know Kerry will most likely win PA. The reason is because of the job situation in our state. I'm just trying to do my part to get people to know as much about these candidates as possible.
And I don't quite remember you doing a whole lot when we baled hay. I remember, and I can find a few other of my friends who agree, that remember you leaving the wagon while your wife finished the load and the rest of us were up in hay mile. That's my recollection.

When the state goes to Kerry, I'll blame it on Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. We in the T-Section live in another world compared to those folks.

That is absolutely correct Captain. P-burgh and Philly determine our votes for us because of the population. However, the majority of counties in our state will vote with the Republican candidate. I should've mentioned that - thank you.
I'm all for giving Philly to New Jersey. Anyone else?
