I want to know how a thread I started about ONE SPECIFIC TOPIC devolved into something completely different.
digress someplace else, thanks.
as for the "facts" about ACORN...that is something else entirely.
yes, something else entirely. so?

there is plenty of other info out there about it, in addition to what Lou Dobbs said on his show tonight.
I don't know why more media outlets aren't covering this 
if there is plenty of info out there, it would stand to reason someone IS covering it.
yes, someone IS, not enough media IMO

I agree this gets annoying, stick to the Original posters topic, if you cant share dont post, and start your own thread about the topic you do want to talk about

Re: OMG-I am so sad (poli post)
then we will have so many threads about *almost* the same topic. so what if the thread morphs into something else? It happens all the time...

Most of the time when a topic veers off course, it starts off as somewhat related to the original topic but then snowballs as more people get involved.
In this instance, what Sweetest of Peas posted had nothing to to with Ophelia's original post.
Ophelia stated she didn't like that McCain cast blame and then said now is not the time to place blame.
The ACORN organization has nothing to do with this statement.

the topics have aboslutely NOTHING in common.
NOTHING.
except to counterpoint my comment about McCain with one about Obama...which is petty and ridiculous.
talk about ACORN until the cows come home...I just don't know how ACORN as an entity (corrupt or uncorrupt) has to do with ANYTHING I said (or anyone else that answered before ACORN was brought up)....
I don't care if it happens all the time. Some people may not care...or not care to say anything...I do......

I agree with the OP it is sad all the pointing fingers instead of taking responsibility for your actions.... But lets be real that's what politics is all about- shady and dirty.

Re: OMG-I am so sad (poli post)
the OP was saying how she has lost respect for McCain - and another posted stated how she lost respect for Obama. Thats not allowed?
ah, but this is getting REALLY off topic now

I just heard John McCain's speech.
he just blamed Obama and the democrats but then in the same breath said "now is not the time to place blame"
WT EFF?? what has happened to you John McCain?! my respect for you lessens every day.
I preface this by saying that I am a democrat. I actually found McCain pretty likable... at first. I liked Obama but felt that McCain was a good guy and could be a lot worse. I can't stand Palin and think she is incredibly unqualified but I'm liking McCain and the republicans less and less as the campaign goes on. To be honest, I'm liking politicians in general less and less.
Everyone is so slimy and hypocritical . i think they start off with good intentions but then it spirals out of control 
I agree at the beginning I had an open mind to McCain and Obama and I was really considering both sides, but little by little I have been turned off to McCain, and his choice for VP Sarah Pailin, well I in good conscious could NEVER vote for such an incompetent, uninformed person.

Sereiously the Republicans need to stop wining about the media, its ridicoulous enough already!!
They need to debate the topics and stop crying, it makes them look like they are trying to divert the attention about the reall and important topics. They are just upset that the are slipping more and more in the polls and the campaing is starting to make McCain /Pailin look like they are drowning with out a life jacket.
I don't hear the Democrats doing it, and for anyone who has watch Fox News, well talk about one sided reporting.
