Their articles are like nothing I have read in any of the current media outlets. It is brilliant writing plus it offers a great community in which to discuss. The editor actually takes time to answer and the political humor section is awesome!!! - Reply to this comment

I work in the health care field as a nurse for a company that gives .25 cent raises for the first four years and thats about it, no cost of living EVER gas mileage reimbursment is .36 cents a mile, day care is about200 a week for one child!!! Gas is 3.50 a gallon with no end in sight for relief,toys brought into this counrty are dangerous to our children, HELL YES I AM BITTER!! I was not offended by Obama statement I felt he was right on!!

- Oh my gosh! CBS I am so impressed that someone in the main stream media is printing the truth! Certainly no one else will. GREAT ARTICLE! It has been a long campaign and it is becoming increasingly difficult for Obama to hide behind his mantle of CHANGE and UNITER. We found out a few days ago what he feels about rural America and the distain he has for our core values and beliefs. Well, better late then never my granny always said. We know now we don''t want Obama as president. Not now, not ever!

- If you go to Snopes website (this website investigates the unvarnished truth about all kinds of things), they cover the Michelle Obama thesis issue. It is a more benign document than the rather strident media would have you believe and the musings of a kid in college besides. It is being taken too seriously and out of context. Snopes has segments of it for you to read for yourself instead of having the media spice it up for you. I am not wild about Michelle myself. I wonder if she harbors the same anger at whites that many blacks do and will it affect how her husband works for all the people. I would like to think that both Obamas would rise up to the challenge of becoming a great American President and not just a black president or a white president or a crony president.

- Rev. Wright never preached a theology of hate. The United Church of Christ is a national congregation that is over 90% white. His church challenges it''s members to accept god, strive for success and care for their families. No where does it say anything about God preferring one race over another and white people are welcome at the church. As a matter of fact all of the tenants of the church that are focused specifically towards blacks are also things that Christians in all communities strive for.
BTW Rev. Wright also volunteered for 3 terms in Viet Nam, was on a medical team that treated Lyndon Johnson at Bethesda Hospital and was invited to the Clinton white house to minister to Bill during the Monica fallout. There is nothing wrong with being mad at your government.
Your opinion piece is strewn with hatred, misinterpretations and all-out lies. When did CBS News get like this? - Reply to this comment
- "All Americans have to do is listen to the speech''''s of this man to hear from his heart what he believes" H SAID THIS- "You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing''''s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not.
And it''''s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren''''t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."
He turns his back, rejects our flag and what it stands for. The old saying goes..you are known by the company you keep. He does not say HOW he plans to CHANGE anything. Sorry, but I am not one to look for a president who basically says...You will have to wait and SEE what change is. - Reply to this comment
- From Obama HIMSELF:
"You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing''s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not.
And it''s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren''t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."
Well Obama,we are the hard working Americans who keep you living like a king, selling your snake oil version of ''change'' on our tax dollars, and its OUR children, the soldiers fighting all over the world for freedom.
These people will probably be his Cabinet. God help us all.. - Reply to this comment
- Terrorist sympathy? Do you remember all those pardons on Bill Clinton''s last day in office? He pardoned 16 Puerto Rican FALN terrorists that had exploded 140 bombs in major cities. From: http://www.providence.edu/polisci/students/clinton_pardons/high_profile.html
Bill Clinton pardoned sixteen members of the FALN organization. These men belonged to a Puerto Rican freedom terrorist group, which was responsible for planting over 130 bombs in public places in the U.S. They killed six people and injured seventy. (Genovese and Almquist, 83) The FALN represented the single largest terrorism campaign in the U.S. %u201CYet Clinton%u2019s clemency released individuals from prison after serving less than twenty years of terms running from fifty-five to ninety years.%u201D (Fisher, 590) Again, President Clinton did not follow formal pardon procedures. He skipped the Department of Justice and attorneys. The FBI did not conduct any background checks and the FALN did not even execute a formal request.
This was at the request of some hispanic Democrat representatives in NY who could help Hillary with the hispanic vote.
Bill also pardoned another terrorist:

It''s the Clintons that are friendly to terrorists, they even offer them clemency. - Reply to this comment
