Like the canidates give a flying fuck about import shmup titles. Lol.

It's business as usual with such limited print runs on them game imports. The general rule to buy them on day one to ensure that you do get yourself a copy. Otherwise you'll miss out and may have to pay more on the secondary market. ^_~

Only a Maverick could finally bring the latest Top Gun sequel to The States.


...

If there was a new Top Gun sequel only in Japan.




...

OH! Maybe the Maverick will bring that one XBox game over that had the president attacking things in a Mech. That'd be pretty Mavericky. Although, he'd probably want his face put on the in-game president, and have a tag line like, "I just kicked your ass my friends!"

The exact same can be said about the other nigger candidate who wants "change". None of the two candidates are worth anything, vote 3rd party.

Metal Wolf Chaos! I love that game.

From Software used to put out some really good stuff. I'd kill to see an Otogi 3...
It's interesting how the McCain campaign has said a lot of things in public. For example, last week it was "we are being outspent in Michigan so we aren't going to campaign there anymore." According to the news, Obama has pulled campaigns out of three states but they did so quietly (and so it doesn't get coverage); meanwhile, the blinding forthrightness (lulz) of the McCain camp serves to emphasize that campaign's faltering nature.
Ahahaha, that was the dumbest move I've seen a candidate make in a long time. Not only did he screw himself over in Michigan, but he's essentially telling Republican voters to stay home, which is going hurt them in the state and municipal elections.

The real question is: What are you doing reading Bowling Stoned? Piece of shit magazine.
More recently, McCain's jokes have heightened tensions with Iran. The senator once cautioned that "the world's only superpower . . . should never make idle threats" — but that didn't stop him from rewriting the lyrics to a famous Beach Boys tune. In April 2007, when a voter at a town-hall session asked him about his policy toward Tehran, McCain responded by singing, "bomb bomb bomb" Iran. The loose talk was meant to incite the GOP base, but it also aggravated relations with Iran, whose foreign minister condemned McCain's "jokes about genocide" as a testament to his "disturbed state of mind" and "warmongering approach to foreign policy."
Is this one really the best they could do? Funny to hear them talking about genocide when they maintain the holocaust never happened

Oh boy! John McCain likes the town hall style of debate we'll see tomorrow.

Hark! What's that on...line two?
WASHINGTON: Tuesday night's presidential debate offers Republican
John McCain one of his last best chances to stop Democrat Barack
Obama's recent surge in the race and turn it in his favor.

That and his age which according to the statistics might end in his 4 year term. There's a 20% chance he will DIE during office. He seems fit and probably is in good health, but still.....If Lowinski gets on her knees again he just might never come again. I hope Obama, I fear his assasination, but I can't imagine the US voting for a black president. Those republicans probably got some scandal about Obama they'll release 2 days before voting.

In the end how much does it really matter who wins? Before you answer this as flame bait, think about it....deeper!...How much power do they really have. If Obama would win, they would keep him on a very short leash. "Sir, this is how things are done..."

EDIT:
If Obama can skate I'm moving to the US!

A whole hell of a lot?

Even just having a president who doesn't veto every bill we put up will be a huge difference.


As for the assassination stuff, I think it's unlikely. The people screwed up enough to do it have plenty of hate for any liberal politician. Obama isn't going to have any greater risk of assassination than any other president.

The unfortunate thing is they have a lot of long term power. They can't snap their fingers and make a problem go away. But look at the US 8 years ago compared to now... and really think deeper about asking that question.

I've said it once, I'll say it again - if you haven't seen the clip of Sarah Palin firing a machine gun, then it should be noted: This lady could be the next Sarah Connor!

My guess is that 50% of America won't vote for a Black dude, but enough young voters might just get him elected, hard to know right now. Even though almost everyone I know is going to be extremely upset if Obama looses, I kinda want McCain to win, then die, then have Palin drop out of politics (in favor of her Joe 6-pack hockey mom lifestyle) and have this country not know what the fuck is going on. Who becomes Pres in a situation like that? I think this is what the country deserves after letting ex-nazis run it from behind the scenes for so long...

My friends.

I vetoed these bills, and I made their names famous.

Look at all these pennies we saved.

new supreme court members are appointed by the presadent, and it is about one member away from overturning the decision that gave women the right to terminate unwanted early pregnancies.

this was the real fuel behind the success of McCain's party in recent years.

a sperm cell enters an egg and you instantly have a child? yeah right.

a few months later maybe, but in those first few weeks we have to have the option to take a pill to eject those few cells.

these days children should be made a thoughtful decision, not a moment of passion or violence.

by life you mean human life. (after all, you kill life every day to live) but is it human?

your words are quite hollow to those who do not see a clump of cells as human. pontential is not equal to being. after all, every cell in your body is a potential human.

Speaker Pelosi, if memory serves (which ensures that, if McCain DID die, the Republicans would chain Palin to the Oval Office desk to keep her from ever leaving of her own will). And they have a few backups in case the Speaker dies/leaves, though I forget offhand how the order goes.
