- Support Hillary Clinton and vote for Obama. She got up and said very clearly to do so, no matter what aid or anyone else has to say. Can you imagine what Hillary really thinks of where Palin stands on the ISSUES, where she stands on Healthcare, Foreign Policy, Education and yes taxes. Lets be smart about this election the number one issue is foreign policy.

- The best Iraq policy statement uttered by any candidate was New Mexico governor Bill Richardson who said essentially that we need to get out of Iraq as quickly as we can. Iraq has been a horrible waste and depletion of American resources. Prof. Linda Bilmes said that the longterm costs of Iraq and Afghanistan will be $3 trillion. I am thinking that casualties for Iraq and Afghanistan are nearing the 50,000 mark.
Here is the main point: America has to eliminate its need to import oil from petrol-dictators from unstable countries. Failure to do this will mean future wars, terrorist attacks, and huge outlays for imported fuel, now $700 billion annually, that will bankrupt our country. Sweden, Japan, and Brazil all have comprehensive energy policies that have reduced or even eliminated their need for imported oil. Many other countries have similar policies vastly reducing their oil consumption. The US needs to spend $3 trillion on getting off of oil via Al Gore or T.Boone Pickens style plans rather than wasting our resources in hopeless stupid wars. Vote Democratic if you want any of this to change because Republicans are too ignorant to care about taking care of the needs people in our own country. - Reply to this comment
- John Sydney McCain III: I listen to the great American general Petraus when it comes to Iraq and i say we will come home in victory.
General Petraus: There is no way I would use the word "victory" to describe the ending of conflict in Iraq.
Bottom Line: You can''t "win" an occupation and the great American General knows it. Why doesn''t McCain? - Reply to this comment

- Does CBS realize that of all the articles listed under POLITICS, this is the ONLY one that really addresses one of the topics that needs to be addressed in this campaign, and what it points out is that the two candidates are more together on this point than they are apart. I commend CBS on this one article, but there is little else to be commended on their reporting of this campaign.

- The war will never end. Radicals will not stop using their religion to brain wash their people to kill Americans. It is not a matter of if they will attack us again, but a matter of when! We must stay strong and I do not think Obama will keep our country safe but he instead will project presidential weakness around the world.

- Man did Sarge swallow the right wing BS. We invaded Iraq, a country that posed no threat to us, based on lies. They had nothing to do with 911, sorry slimewad Guiliani.
No we have McBush, who will have us try to kill a billion Muslims because they are not Christian Fascists like Bush and Palin. Wow.

The Islamofast bastwards shouldn''t have come over here and killed 3,000 of people!
Had they not done that, they could be living their little Sharia law lives...
Maybe next time they''ll THINK before they kill Americans!
ALL OF THEM! - Reply to this comment
