Bush only disregarded it because he disregards all things that he can''''t spell or prenounce correctly.

I think its funny that McCain is having trouble winning over his own party. Ron Paul likes obama foreign policy better than McCains and Chuck Hagel says that an endorsement for Obama from him over McCain is not out of the question.

*** Maybe if Juan Amnesty Mccain wasn''t for giving over 12 million lawbreakers amnesty, maybe his own party might support him! Why don''t they just allow more legal immigrants in every year from South American, rather than giving amnesty to law breakers. If people come in here by breaking the law, they should have to go back and get behind the people that want to come in the right way. I''ll vote for ANYONE other than Amnesty Juan Mccain! They need to rename the republican party to the Richspanic party! Since Juan Mccain only cares about the very rich people and illegal hispanics!

Gidday makeitso928, and thanks for your comments..

I love what I learn on here, shame that some people think that they can prove a point by being nasty but I still love seeing what people have to say..

We loved the American people when we visited there about 5 years ago and want to be able to come back to just sit and talk.. Thanks America and I believe that America is doing a good job at trying to do their best despite the politicians and the media.. Too often America/Australia and Britain have been called into another country to help clean up someone else''s mess, many people don''t realize that America has actually been asked into some of these situations..

The republicons are done. Time to stick a fork in ''em.

We have a completely imploded presidency and a thoroughly compromised Congress that has until very recently been under total Rethugnican control.

And now we are treated to the grand spectacle of the Rethugnican party wringing their hands in desperation over the sour prospects that loom in November,

Sorry guys (Actually not one iota sorry) You reap what you sow.

This is really megachickens coming home to roost. You were large and in charge. Instead of thinking what the country needed, you focused on what who you needed to stroke and kiss to keep your plush little nest at Capital Hill.

Instead of really protecting us, you goosestepped in formation to let our government spy on us, render us to torture and deprive us of our privacy.

Instead of ensuring the prosperity of the many, you grossly enriched the favored and the few at our expense.

As far as the majority of Americans are concerned, you can all go jump off a very high building.

Do the honorable thing (for once). Do not write books or give speeches. Just collect your overly generous pension and lay low. Try to disappear.

McCain''s medical records were carbon dated after being found in a tomb in Egypt.

Quotes from McCain%u2019s spiritual advisor

Pastor Hagee:

"The acts of Adolf Hitler were part of gods will."


McCain said he was "very honored by Pastor John Hagee''s endorsement."

Starting the Iraq war when they did was deemed an emergency by the administration. They knew that their carefully crafted WMD rationale for the war was like a house of cards and couldn''t stand a long time for people to stumble onto "inconvenient" information that they had chosen to ignore. Colin Powell was probably a concern because if he had found out the bases for the indisputable facts he;d presented to the UN, he''d probably have blown their war out of the water. It was that pesky personal integrity thing, but he was apparently the only one in the administration with that affliction.

How is it that both Hillary and McCain both have big, fat jowls? Is that where my golf balls have gone?

The GAO (Government Accounting Office) says that a "conservative" estimate on the current projected cost of the Iraq war is in the neighborhood of $2.5 TRILLION dollars.

With 301 million Americans in this country, that works out to about $8300 dollars (and counting) per person (for every man, woman and child now living) =PLUS= the long-term interest on that massive debt.

***, the cost to America to bring "Democracy" to the Iraqi''s sure is obscenely expensive, isn''t it?

Especially so when we obviously can''t even truly afford to take care of our OWN citizens right now, as it is.

It amazes me how many Americans are totally willing to sell out their own children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren for the benefit of a people that thoroughly hate us, and consider us "ungodly infidels" at best.

And when this war ends in total failure, as it surely will, we will STILL owe that enormous debt, just the same.

"Critics Try To Make McCain''s Age An Issue":

If you have had "dizzy spells" since "2000"-- thats EIGHT YEARS OF BEING DIZZY, off and on.

I have an idea-- lets put that shaking hand over the RED BUTTON and see what happens, rather than making a prudent judgement as to who SHOULD NOT BE PRESIDENT.
