McCain OPPOSED offshore drilling, until June when he was promised $1.3 million in campaign donations for changing his mind.



Why aren''''t you posting about that fact?

Sure, as long as you talk about obama selling out progressives over FISA!!!!!!

Which IMHO is WAAAAAAAY worse than exploratory drilling for Oil on our own land and in our own sea.

Why don''t you explain obama''s use of the race card?!? allowing the media and his supporters to turn "obama''s stance on war is a fairy tale" to "obama''s campaign is a fairy tale" into RACE BAITING!?!?!

barackula has set race relations back in this country by 50 years, and as a progressive I HATE those empty headed people who can''t see that he''s a blatant black version of GEORGE W. BUSH.

When McCain proposes offshore drilling, liberals say NO.

When Obama proposes offshore drilling, liberals say YES.

You are So Right about that. Everyone I talk to are voting for Mccain, except the 2 blacks that I work for even though one is a conservative christian, he is voting for Obama. pretty sad.

Thats because BLACKS vote for blacks because of their colors not because of ability. Really Sad.

Obama cannot win. Obama will probably win NY and CA, where most residents are socialists, but he will lose the rest of the country. We don''''t want Obama as our next president. He will not win.

And those "polls" the media keeps talking about are totally meaningless. The only people who have time to answer political phone polls in the middle of the day are lazy, unemployed welfare recipients. The rest of America WORKS for a living. Remember when Hillary was leading in the polls by double digits over Obama? They should call those polls "Bum Polls."

liberty_1776,

Polls aren''t conducted during the day but evenings and on the weekend. I love the way you fools trumpet the few polls that give McCain the advantage while downplaying the avalanche of polls which show Obama in the commanding position. But that''s OK, you''ll be eating your words(in silence) in 95 days.

It will be so refreshing and exciting to have a president who will LISTEN to the will of the people and consult with experts , than admit a wrong stance and make the right choice , unlike the beligerent, obstinate, foolish party in power now.

Thank you God for delivering to us a breath of fresh air in the form of the brilliant young man President Barack Obama.
