What makes McCain more "experienced"? Being a POW? Being shot down 5 times? He doesn''''t even know that Czecheslovakia is no more. He thinks Iraq and Pakistan are border countries. But he''''s more "experienced"? Where?

I continue to be amazed at the cool, composed nature of Barak Obama. By every measure, his trip abroad has been a smashing success.

McCain must be wondering whether it was such a good idea to bait him into going. As the adage goes, "be careful what you wish for, it may come true!"

I can''t wait for the photo ops of Obama speaking in front of 100,000 in Germany!

There is a definate down side to having a black president. The blacks will automatically assume all race relations are harmonious when it fact it won''t be. One person cannot do that- and the whites who say " I''m voting for a black man so that makes me non- racist" are in for a very rude awakening. Racism will not dissapate with a black President, in fact, it will cause more harm than good, when the issue is still very much alive in this country. Obama is not the answer, not only simply because he is black, but because HE IS NOT QUALIFIED to be a COMMANDER.

It''s ironic, to say the least, that the same liberals who have barked their Bush-bashing dogma for eight years about his supposed lack of understanding, etc. etc. - now sing the holy praises of their self-proclaimed Messiah, who has no expertise in the private or public sector, who constantly says the most atrocious gaffs exposing his extreme incompetence on both foreign and domestic subjects, and who unashamedly lies to everyone around him.

Obama is not the answer - rather, Obama is the question.

HUSSEIN LEADS THE CHORUS OF USEFUL IDIOTS,,,

Leftist Support of Islamist Terror

Most shocking is the outright sympathy of many leftist-liberals for Islamic fascism. They said little about the murder of 500 Russian civilians, many of them children, but screamed week after week because some Arab savage at Abu Ghraib prison wore a bag on his head. They cared nothing about the beheadings committed by the Islamo-savages or the execution of 12 Nepalese. David Horowitz gives an excellent discussion of who this "Left" really is. He calls them neo-communist, I call them Leftist-Liberals. I''m a classical Liberal myself and I feel it''s time to remove this irrational element that has been allowed to poison our good name.

"Are people ever going to think that he''''s going to be stronger than McCain on national security? Maybe not," he said. "But he doesn''''t need to be seen as stronger than McCain on national security. He needs to be seen as strong enough on national security."

STRONG ENOUGH? NO.
YOU CAN''T BE HALF QUALIFIED- EITHER YOU ARE OR YOU''RE NOT.
YOU CAN''T BE HALF EXPERIANCED TO LEAD A COUNTRY, YOU ARE OR YOU''RE NOT.
