That John McCain wants us to stay in Iraq for 100 years.

So far 4000 casualties

$3 trillion spent.

In 100 years that comes up to about 200,000 casualties.

$60 trillion.

That''''s the McCain vision for America.

It''''s called the Halliburton business plan.

Yes truth hurts!

Did you know there was a major news story on it and how Obama was twisting it to rank falsehood. Did you know that?

jesterbelle: When someone points out the differences in Hillary''s and Obama''s positions; Obama''s lies, inconsistencies and flip-flops; and Obama''s racism as personified by his racist and anti-American "mentor and spiritual adviser", that person is not necessarily trying to help McCain. No, pointing out these things is often the action of someone who loves this country and wishes to protect it against the cynical fraud which Obama has perpetrated on the American public. In a way, I feel sorry for many of his supporters. They developed what might be likened to a "crush" on him when they knew nothing about him, other than he could read a teleprompter better than anyone since Ronald Reagan. He was slick, convincing, and magnificently vague. Now, much is coming out which flies in the face of the fundamental premises of his candidacy; that of "change" and "unification." If anything, Obama has shown himself to be more ruthless and dishonest than most. And, his 20 year allegiance to a racist and anti-American "mentor and spiritual adviser" destroys his pretense as a candidate who can bring America together. All we have left now, is a typical politician with little experience; who may well have set back race relations 50 years; and who has vulnerabilities to the right wing slime machine larger than the Titanic.

Loser Left Liberal meets liar Left Liberal? it seems all Mass Liberals and DNC Boss Dean are cutting Clinton at will? Their Hubris Blinds them to Reality that "No Left Liberal Dem has won since JFK". And JFK was a "moderate".

Obama''s excuse was: "Had the reverend not retired, and had he not acknowledged that what he had said had deeply offended people and were inappropriate and mischaracterized what I believe is the greatness of this country, for all its flaws, then I wouldn''t have felt comfortable staying at the church," Obama said Thursday during a taping of the ABC talk show, "The View." The interview will be broadcast Friday.
Oh really? Did Wright actually "acknowledge" that he had offended people and his remarks were "inappropriate?"

Tom McGuire:
So, when did Wright acknowledge that what he had said was deeply offensive and inappropriate? The AP story recounts some of Wright''s controversial comments but oddly omits to mention his apology, as does all other news coverage with which I am familiar.

And I am strangely certain that a Wright apology would have made the news - unless he never made it publicly. So what are we supposed to believe - that Wright apologized to Obama, who is now apologizing to the rest of us on Wright''s behalf? For heaven''s sake, this really does show that Obama is made of Presidential stuff - maybe he can do an Apology Tour, just as Bill Clinton did.

The Democrats have done a lot of self inflicted damage to themselves, any Ticket other than Obama/Clinton or Clinton/Obama is probably out of the question as a result if the Democrats hope to have any chance of winning!

Wright has extensive ties to ISM. No wonder he supports Hamas.

The ISM (International Solidarity Movement) is a front group for Yasser Arafat%u2019s PLO and its affiliated Palestinian terrorist groups, such as the PFLP and Hamas. It works in conjunction with the Palestinian Authority%u2019s propaganda ministries by Saudi funding through the Muslim Students Association on our U.S. and Canadian campuses . Their purpose is to deceive western democracies that it is %u201Cpeace group,%u201D while aiding in the terrorist attacks and efforts of the PLO to destroy Israel. Working under pseudonyms such as Al Awda, Palsolidarity, SUSTAIN, Wheels of Justice Tour, Middle East Children%u2019s Alliance and other names it serves to interfere with Israel%u2019s attempts to fight terrorism in the Middle East . In America, the ISM raises money and promulgates propaganda for Arafat and his terrorist thugs. The ISM goes under many other names in order to make the group difficult to trace in the U.S. and Canada, but , make no mistake about it, they are a subversive organization out to destroy western-style democracies. Another reason the ISM uses so many names is to appear it has more members than it actually has (yet still enough to wreak havoc) and to shield it from legal and financial investigations.

Dream ticket is right,they are both dreaming that they win the election.I was going to vote for Senator Obama until I heard his Reverends little speech.I will not vote for an individual that would sit and listen to that racist *** for 20 yrs.and then tell the country those are not his beliefs.If he did not agree with goofy Wright then he would have found another church in my eyes.That cost him many votes,just of people I know.

If nothing else will kill his candidacy, Kerry as VP will. But that''''s a good thing. We don''''t need corrupt Chicago politics in the White House.

Go ahead, choose Kerry!
