Comments on: Sizing Up A McCain-Obama Battle

CBSNews.com Reports: What To Expect In General Election Matchup Between Two Candidates Who Are Both Historic And Flawed

John McCain...The stubborness of Bush coupled with the senility of Reagan.

The daily gaffe machine wants a series of Town Hall Debates. This ought to be good. Really Good!

by the way, the "well-intentioned Liberal" comment was in reference to you damning all "Re-Cons" (and I''d have to say you''re method categorization is a bit flawed at best) to Hell.

[bukco13]

There are definitely some major problems with corporate america. What I support, as well as McCain and Obama, is transparency for CEO''s and their companies. But there is no reason that companies as a whole should be punished for doing better. If the companies grow, they need new labor, thus there are more jobs created, also labor''s value increases and so wages go up.
And in your rant against all "Re-Cons," which as far as I can tell is anyone who doesn''t hold all of the far left''s ideas, you failed to address most of what I said earlier.

[bukco13]

haha, well so much for the well-intentioned, moral liberals.

anyway, first: "Well paid,well trained Employees increase profits much more than transient labor who never ''''take roots''''" you are absolutely right. So if a company wants to make more profits, increase productivity of labor, etc... they will increase wages, through the FREE MARKET. the best example would have to be Ford when he doubled wages from 2.5 a day to 5 a day to attract the best labor and encourage them to work harder and keep their jobs. It wasn''t the government that told him to double wages but the market. Obama talks about protecting American jobs though and how exactly would you do that? You have to give companies incentives to produce here. If they are forced to pay more than value the labor, they''ll open businesses somewhere else. An example is Ford''s recent decision to start production of a new line in Mexico.
You''re right, they have had only a slime majority and did get vetoed many times. Can you give me an example though of any of the measures Bush has vetoed that would have fixed our economy? Something that did get past his veto is the hugely corrupt, $300 billion farm subsidy bill which I already mentioned. It doesn''t help our deficit to spend so much money giving subsidies to millionaires.
As for Corporations running untamed, and how Oil companies should be punished, Exon Mobil''s proits have increased by only %12 whereas the increase in profits for some food companies... 289%!

Hello, my name is Barack Hussein Obama and I will be running for president!
What you may not know about me is that I have been in a black supremacy racist church for 20 years, sorry. All of the reverends there have shouted racial things in my church? The people men and woman and children, I and my wife and my children, have learned 20 years of hate speech of whites keeping us blacks down, we know this to be true that%u2019s why we stayed there for 20 years but now because of the election in order to get our message out I am cutting my ties with this church for now. I have taken the cause for change because of the things learned at my church? I will allow my good fried Louis Farrakhan into the White house as maybe the secretary of state. We will change, because of the 20 years of hate speeches, America! We will change America! We will change America!

neobrian, how about instead of throwing names around as if we were in kindergarten, you actually reply to any of things I have said. Good intentions don''t necessarily translate into positive effects. I believe we''ve had a democratic congress for the past two years as well as a republican president.
and to liberalme, McCain agrees and disagree with Bush on some things as does Obama. Obama and Bush both support the huge amount subsidies for ethanol despite the fact that it does more harm than good to the environment and his been extremely harmful to food prices. Obama also supports the 300 billion dollar farm bill (which would give subsidies even to farming families making over 2 million dollars!) Under Bush, government spending increased dramatically, a patter Obama intends to continue.

[liberalme]

I don''''t mean this to sound as insulting as it may have come off, imitating whatithink''''s format, but in the word''''s of Obama (even though he can''''t come up with an example) "Democrats don''''t have a monopoly on good idea''''s."

But they''ve got to be much better than the "ideas" Bush and Cheney have had the past 71/2 years!
