  • But Barack Obama is left-handed, too -- see http://www.leftiesforobama.com -- so I guess you'll just have to vote for the Libertarian candidate, Bob Barr!

    Taylor you must just be another kind of idiot to even say what hand a person uses has anything to do with what kind of people they are and how others should vote, must be nice that the staff there can cut down anyone they please but limit others not to bash or slam

    So let me put this into prespective. You have the same last name a previous president (Zachary Taylor) who was slaveholder. Sounds silly right? Well that is how your blog sounds, the sillest attempt at reasoning that I have ever read.

    Give me a break, this blog makes no sense at all and if this is the best you can do, I suggest a career change.

    I know that you are trying to achieve a point here but I found some interesting facts. I happen to be a strong lefty....

    The left brain focuses on syntax and order, while the right brain monitors context and emotions.

    Psychological Characteristics of Left-handed People

    Leadership. About 66% of American presidents in the last 30 years were left-handed men. Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, and Gerald Fold were all left-handed presidents. Barack Obama and John McCain are both left-handed.

    Quick thinkers. Studies have shown that lefties are "exceptional." Australian research shows that left-handed people think more quickly when playing computer games or sports. Left-handed people also tend to earn more money.

    Personality Traits of Lefties

    Independence: Some experts believe left-handed people are more independent because they've had to get along in a world that's not made for them. Dr Peters says that lefties are "slightly more resistant to social pressures, to have more of an independent streak."

    Adaptability: Canadian research shows that left-handed people are more adaptable than right-handed people. That is, a lefty can use her right hand to do tasks much easier than a righty can use his hand. Left-handed people seem to be able to switch over more easily.

    Generally, Southpaws are thought to be more flexible, highly intelligent, and more resilient than right-handed people.

  • Did anyone read the last 3 statements of Mr. Taylor's blog? He is obviously being satirical. If you follow the history of his blogs, you'll find that this is his "modus operandi". Keep up the humor Robert, I personally don't see a problem with it.

    As a matter of fact I did MrMister, that is why I wrote:

  • Good grief, a lot of you folks didn't read the whole article. Ever heard of tongue and cheek?

  • I thought the post was brilliant. And, most welcome considering all the negatives and other BS that's been slung throughout this campaign.

  • I think you make a great point in this blog by using a completely rediculous line of descriminatory reasoning to show how rediculous it is to evaluate a political candidate based on descriminatory prejudices. ¨

    "There are dozens of reasons you should consider when voting next month. Don't get hold up on the ones that don't matter. "

    That last line makes the whole line of compeletly silly reasoning make perfect sense. Great use of irony and sarcasm to say something serious.
