Three thing not to discuss loudly in bars:

#1 Sex.

You don't want to be the guy that is talking about that one time you did that unmentionable act to the girl(s) you met at the bar that one night..... just as the music stops. trust me, you are not getting laid that night by talking about it.

#2 Religion

Everyone was raised believing in something or nothing. Its not worth having a heated discussion at this point. you both have had at least had 2 to many and you are going to only piss off each other and everyone within earshot.

#3 Politics

With all the current coverage on this topic it is inevitable to not spend an hour drinking and not have someone tell you how great Obama is.
my opinion:

We as a society (U.S.) are facing a huge time historically. These are the 3 scenarios I see happening:

#1 McCain wins the presidency . The Majority of the U.S. is red and they may win on sheer numbers alone.
Pro's: the republican party has to deal with the publics outcry about the current war that wasn't necessary in the first place and end Iraq. It would be really unfair to lay all the blame about how horribly the pulling out of Iraq is going to be on a president that didn't put them there.
Cons: 4 moar republican years.

#2 Obama wins the presidency: The U.S makes reparations and elects a black president.
Pro's: I do feel he is the best candidate but not the best suited for the job. It is time that this happens. Same that it is time that a woman can be president. Our current gov't needs a huge shake-up. If his competition wins he should be happy to accept the VP bid.
Cons: i do not feel the same vice-versa.

#3 Hillary wins the presidency: BILL IS BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE!
Pro's: There is no one better fitted to being the title of first man than Bill Clinton.
Con's: Hillary is stuck with cleaning up the Iraq mess...... is that really a con?
