- Has MccCain said anything that made any sense? Every economist in America says the summer gas tax thing is a bad idea and his idea for health care reform is a joke. America elected the Bush/Cheney team... twice so I guess McCain has a shot. GOD HELP US ALL.

No JackASSS, thats Democrats that have said nothing will work. You need to get your news from some other source than the DNC or CNN (Communist News Network). Why is there no Democrat ever that has questioned O''Bama. He has promised a thousand new programs without the first word of how to accomplish any. O''bama just adds "We Hate Bush" to the end of ever statement and the Democrats love him. O''bama has never even authored a piece of legislation, let alone got something passed through Congress. But O''bama knows the magic words. Just talk about Hate, and Rage and Anger and the Endlessly Angry Hateful Democrats follow like sheep. - Reply to this comment
- OH,GREAT! Another McSame lobbyist contact ''non-contact''! What did they do?! Nothing, but represent a military junta in another country. What kind of operations did this military group conduct? Standard operations of a junta group---rape,murder,death, and destruction!
McSame hasn''t gotten in yet and it sounds like he''s trying to revive the Reagan-Bush years where this country illegally sponsored guerilla-run wars all over the globe!
Question: Is this what America and Americans really need and want at this point in time? To continue to lower this country into the bowels of hell?! - Reply to this comment
- Actually, McBush wasn''t going to pick this scumbag lobbyist. He was going to pick another scumbag lobbyist with ties to Putin but decided that the lobbyist with ties to the military junta in Myanmar was better for him politically. McBush sure is in bed with a ton of lobbyists.

- The Newsweek article also reported that some of Goodyear''s allies worried the choice of Goodyear could fuel perceptions that McCain is surrounded by lobbyists. DCI Group earned $3 million last year lobbying for ExxonMobil, General Motors and other clients, the report said.
This is nothing new. McCain has been owned by lobbyists for years. - Reply to this comment

- Young Evangelicals Abandoning GOP Over Iraq, Economy
Michael Dudley is the son of a preacher man.
He''s a born-again Christian with two family members in the military. He grew up in the Bible Belt, where almost everyone he knew was Republican. But this fall, he''s breaking a handful of stereotypes: He plans to vote for Democrat Barack Obama.
"I think a lot of Christians are having trouble getting behind everything the Republicans stand for," said Dudley, 20, a sophomore at Seattle Pacific University.
Dudley''s disenchantment with the GOP isn''t unique among young, devoutly Christian voters. According to a September 2007 survey by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life, 15 percent of white evangelicals between 18 and 29, a group traditionally a shoo-in for the GOP, say they no longer identify with the Republican Party. Older evangelicals are also questioning their traditional allegiance, but not at the same rate. - Reply to this comment

- McCain graduated at the bottom of his class from the Naval Academy. He only got into flight school because his father pulled some strings. By all accounts he was a below average pilot. (he crashed four planes) His application to the National War College was rejected but again his father pulled some strings and got him in. When he was a POW he spilled his guts to the enemy. In fact his code name among the enemy was songbird. Granted he didn''t duck military service like Bill Clinton, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity,Prick Cheney etc etc. But McCain got where he is today because of his family name and kicking his sick first wife to the curb and marrying a wealthy women.(with a drug problem)

- Why am I not suprised about this. I mean just about every crook in this country is a Republican. While the 1994 Democrats were bad they can''t hold a candle to these Republicans.
But neo cons think of it like this in 1994 we were unhappy with the direction of the country now in 2006 the same was true. But in 2008 we are no longer unhappy we are just plain angry and mad. So what do you think the outcome will be.
More of the same or a major swing.
22 Republican senators up for re-election I wonder how many will not be returning to congress in 2009.
Good night and good luck. - Reply to this comment
- Its better for Barack HUSSEIN OSAMA not to win the nomination.
He might not survive to reach the oval office. Jesse Jackson is still
alive because he never won a nomination.

Does anyone have the number for the Secret Service? I think they need to have a conversation with this FOOL. - Reply to this comment
- "America, here''''s the worst part. The Democrats are no better. There isn''''t a dime''''s difference between the Democrats and the Republicans. Neither is like you. Neither represents you. The only difference: They belong to different Country Clubs."

Reply from a Democrat...
Sadly, you''re mostly right. Democrats are as venal as Republicans. The difference is that Republicans have raised avarice to an art form while Democrats play for the change they leave on the table.
If you''re using dollars to keep score in the game of greed, Dems are big-time losers. They''re so un-complicated they think it''s okay to stash your graft money in the freezer. - Reply to this comment

- GOP needs to totally clean house. They might as well start now getting rid of the ''couture of corruption'' crowd that has dominated party leadership pretty much since the Reagan years. The fringe was invited in to help build the base and they took over. I guess they need to hit rock bottom first.
Btw the nice folks over at heritage.org are giving away free copies of the US Constitution. All you Bush lovers out there please go get a copy and use it to wipe your behind just like old "W" has done these past 7+ years in office. - Reply to this comment

Awww come on now--we all know America was "dammmned" the minute Bush took office!!!
His achievements? The murder of over 4000 troops and over 60,000 Iraqi civilians, creating total disrespect for our country, pillaging a budget that started out as a respectable surplus, millions of "missing money" in Iraq, trillions in debt, he has divided this broken country with propaganda people like you still bow down to and all you can come up with is a bad quote from a black bigot.
You are akin to "silly putty" who will let anyone "mold" him into whatever they want--as long as you don''t have to think for yourself. - Reply to this comment
