Poison, Bret Micheals, Motley Crue, and any other guy from the LA metal scene that still plays around like he's 25 and built like a fuckin god. At least Bon Jovi, as lovely as Jersey and Jersey metal bands are, has the decency to grow up.

You've grown up as long as you don't still write songs about fuckin strippers and have a TV show about how many women you're loving at the age of 50 in my book.

As far as Republicans speaking at this thing, the safe money is on Lincoln Chafee. He actually endorsed Obama and is officially an Independent.

Sadly most of the ones under 50 aren't exactly of the Kucinich class either. The only answer is the same answer that had always been right: proportional representation.

I'm just curious, but exactly what do you people want them to do to bash McCain beyond what they've done? Do you not realize the way the media spins things like that ("they're scared of McCain, they feel that he has the edge and the ideals so they're lashing out") and how McCain himself will get sympathy with it ("these attacks are like when i was tortured in a prison cell in Vietnam").

mccaine, you are a worthless human being. i am in the top 10 people ignored on this site and you are the single poster on my ignore list. what does that tell you about your worth?

it should tell you that absolutely no one can stand you. no one cares about your opinions because they are idiotic. no one cares about your jokes because they are unfunny. no one cares about your philosophy because it's cobbled together by an idiot child flipping through big books at random.

i would call you a joke, but you aren't. jokes are funny. jokes are entertaining. you are a man who takes wide-eyed pictures of yourself naked in bondage to get attention. you used to mod a debate subforum on the internet and you even failed horribly at that.

everything about your life is a failure. the men who gently caress you only do so because you are an easy target for their cock. they don't care about you. we don't care about you. no one cares about you.

the only thing you will contribute to the paint of humanity slapped against the rock slab of reality is embarrassing gays, socialists, progressives, and everything you hold dear.

The problem with Kucinich isn't his stances, it's the fact that he (on his own, forget the hot wife here) is the poster child for weird-rear end moonbeam new age hippie bullshit in the democratic party. Department of Peace? Global "Warring"? Come on, if he'd go back to being weird Croatian kid he'd get a lot more of a following from normal people who I believe actually would agree with his stances otherwise.
