Wow, very nice picture. Thanks very, very much.

I initially assumed that you used Poser or Daz3D to make your pictures, but I'm starting to think that you've built the models yourself using a different program. Any chance you can shed some light on your process and the tools you use? Thanks again.

Looks like Poser to me.

Excellent!

Jeez, I leave for a week and all hell breaks loose!   ;D

Where'd ya go?

Funny thing: I saw a guy in a coffee shop last week who looked just like you.

You know, maybe Obama is thinking about annexing Canada with its ten provinces much to the Mighty One's chagrin.    😀

As long as we seize them by force, I'm OK with it.

I assume those stories are downloadable off the LH-Art site.  If not they can probably still be purchased on paper.

There are also 57 Heinz varieties, so perhaps he has his eye on Mrs. Kerry.

Huckabee's a loon.  Parsley and Hagee may or may not be, but it doesn't matter because they ain't gonna be president.

Look, you're missing the point.  You're delving into endless discussion on two people who will have no impact in November, to try to prove a point that is demonstrably false, disingenuous and not relevant.

McCain has been in the public spotlight for about 40 years, since he became a POW during Vietnam.  He's been in federal elected office for more than 25 years, since he ran for Congress in 1982.  His catalog of sponsored and passed legislation is vast.  His associates and preferences have been vetted, decades ago.  He is a known quantity.

Obama is not.  He is a first-term U.S. senator with no substantial legislative accomplishments.  Prior to this he served in the Illinois legislature, where he was likewise transparent.  He is running away from people like Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright, who were his 'community' associates in Chicago. 

The fact is that Obama has had recent, involved political relationships with people who are very fishy.  McCain has not.  The last time McCain was involved in anything fishy was almost 20 years ago, during the Charles Keating scandal, and he's been squeaky clean ever since.  So this is a challenge for the Obama campaign, and it is asymmetrical because McCain faces no genuine comparable challenge, the best efforts of the Nation, Mother Jones and other leftwing rags notwithstanding.

I'd still be shocked if Obama didn't win the general election by at least 10 points.

Prepare to be shocked.  I expect McCain to win by 10 points, and Obama will go down like McGovern or Mondale.

[Lingster]

Lastly, how do you know the extent to which McCain knows them?

Um, the burden is on you to show that McCain is buddy-buddy with them.  You're the one making the assertion that McCain's relationship with these two guys is akin to Obama's documented, intimate, long-lasting relationship with Wright.  I never heard of Hagee or Parsley until two weeks ago, and I've been following Republican politics for more than 20 years.

When I say Islam is a "worldview", I also include all religions in that category.  Worldview is a superset.  Catholicism is a worldview, too.

Islam happens to be a worldview I find repugnant, backward and counter-productive.
