McCain/Palin ticket

TC

Whopee! Obama wins! Thanks McCain. You put a woman , who was a mayor 4 years ago,on the ticket of a man 74 years old with one foot in the grave. Second in command? And the Republicans want to talk about experience? All this says is McCain thinks Democratic women are stupid. He gambling that most of those 8 million votes that Hillary had will make their way into his pocket. This is a man who can make good judgements? Give me a break!

" To Civically-Minded,
Clinton reduced our military to a mere shell! The Obamassiah will emasculate it! He is ALL for a "One World Order", to follow George Soros's "money". He wants the U.N. to be the World's Police Force! We, the American Public, will NOT be allowed to own firearms! They will be afraid we will revolt again!! "

" I find it appalling that so many people in my home town have their heads so far in the sand that they would vote for 4 more years of the McSame. I find this especially stomach churning because I see how much Louisiana needs professional government such as Obama for restoration of our wetlands and the implementation of the Green Economy! Louisiana keeps putting the McSame Corporate Scum Bags in office that keep destroying our state and our people. How in the world is that Pro-Life?

Geaux Obama! "

" It's unfortunate people forget about the last 8 years we've lived. Quit trying to blame Clinton for all of Bush's mistakes. He's had 8 years and all he's done is drive this country's economy into the ground. Price of gas when Bush took over was around $1.75-$2.00 a gallon. Now it's frickin almost.$5.00-Priceless. $10 billion dollars a week we spending another country when we need to be fixing our own roads schools and infrastructure. Sure elect McCain McSame and it's at least 4 more years of this crap we call the United States of America. "

Even I know Fox News is owned by Rupert Murdock who is a HUGE Republican supporter. Last week I saw a Fox reporter try to say that that the reason McCain is not using a computer or doesn't know how to is because of his war wounds. Please stop using that as an excuse ok. My nephew is a Iraq War Veteran and has no arms and uses a computer with a mouth piece. Why is this guy so closed minded that he can't even try to learn some computer skills like the rest of us. "

One way to prevent war is to prepare for it. That's not to say that there are not some dumb somebody’s out there. I believe in being over prepared unlike X president Clinton who tore down our military to the barest minimum. Bush had his job cut out for him to take on 9-11. "

Third, Fox is not 'owned' by republicans and simply state the truth as it comes out. However, it's your choice what you believe. All I 'suggested' was that you not look/listen one-sidedly as you seem to have judged these mediums. My suggestion was simply to not just look in one direction, but to give yourself the opportunity to view the full scope and decide from there. "

Actually you should listen to the speeches on TV because you can judge a person better while you watch them speak. They had a good one the other day in Iowa that was really pretty good.

I am proud of all her accomplishments but I do not think she is ready for the VP spot. She is a mother of 5 young children and she is about to be a grandmother. Her daughter is still in school and pregnant not only that but she has a sick baby to care for. I think Sarah would be great in the Senate but she is notreadyforthewhitehouse. "

Obama's Plan will cut taxes on people making under 250k a year and increase it on thoses making above 600k a year.

McBush will continue to cut taxes on the rich and exploit the poor.

So our deficit is going down the tubes? When WE, The USA STOPS ALL funding of foreign governments, we will have enough money to go around! We should NOT be taxing OUR citizens more, just to bail out our own slackers! If they want a raise, get a better job! Don't tax my "donkey", for the benefit of the people who did NOT take advantage of the FREE bus ride to the FREE school! Read the Constitution, it clearly states, "tax money to be spent IN the country; outside-country-spending, ONLY for Ambassadors" {paraphrasing}! "

" Obama will lose in a landslide! McCain just turned a very close election into a sure victory by a large margin. But Obama had his chance to win. If he would have chose Hillary he would have won the Presidency, but he just turned down 18 million votes and handed them over to McCain. Plus McCain and Palin are much more qualified then Obama Biden. "

" To the Brain: Wish you had one. You far-right extremists make me sick as a moderate. It's no wonder the Democrats are gaining ground. Same old rhetoric. The Dems tax and spend. Why don't you do a little research and see that Govmt. has grown in the last 8 yrs. and we've gone from a multi-billion dollar surplus to a multi-trillion dollar deficit. "

" To TC,
And, yes, Ann Coulter IS right! If Democrats had ANY brains, they would BE Republicans!
After all, Senators, Congressmen, the veep AND the Pres. ALL are sworn in and are suppossed to uphold the Constitution of the U.S. BUT it is the Dems who are trying to REMOVE and/or CHANGE the Constitution to suite their OWN agenda!!
You should read it before your "buds", the dems and the aclu burn it! "

" To TC,
So, John McCain picks a woman to be his Veep, and suddenly he becomes senile? If you did ANY kind of research on Palin, you would know she has MORE experience than either Biden or "your" Obamassiah! She HAS run a business, A town, a state, and family responsibilities! Your choice, BHussein Oblahblah, as a "Lawyer", he went to court approx.20 times, and LOST every case! Are you one of those who stands to get a "raise" after the Dem's tax increases go into affect? I'll-be-forced into handing-over-MY hard-earned-money to slackers and deadbeats! "
