"Everyone said that abotu Bill Clinton that he is not ready to be commender in chief but guess what? He was at least 10 times better than H.W. Bush. and about 100 times better than W. Bush"

You can only have this opinion if your head was completely in the sand for the last DECADE!

9/11 was not planned in the few months after Bush took office. It was planned during and as a response to Clinton policies. Clinton let those terroist camps thrive and grow without lift a finger to go in and root them out, despite repeated attacks on American facilities. Yeah, he fired a couple of cruise missiles at long abandoned camps ... bet the sweat from that workload glistened him all up.

People seem to forget that after 9/11 this entire country wanted to get the guys responsible. Not an easy job, but for the most part they''ve been rooted out, and their remnants have only been able to attack soft targets in Afghanistan and Iraq since then ... not US soil.

Its not really better that the victims are in the Middle East rather than here, but in all honestly, you like it better that way.

Bush had to clean up for Clinton''s neglect of the growing problem. He''s taken a lot of flack for it once the initial horror of 9/11 wore off, but he hasn''t complained about the work or the criticism.

He did your dirty work, he did Clinton''s dirty work, and he deserves a hell of a lot more credit that those ''playing politics'' will ever give him for it.

YOU reminds all of us what''s wrong with USA. White trash inbreeds that are under/un-educated to get the bigger picture. The lack of ambition lack of dream of better future for our later generations. War benefits few but kills many both physically and financially!

Honestly trrrorislam5 just keeps looking like a bigger and bigger a fool, have you no shame? You can''t keep spreading lies, half-truths and other ignorance like the right wing talk show people and not be considered an ABSOLUTE MORON.

Moron trrrorislam5 must think that police and firemen are socialists because they work for the government. Support stem cell research to grow a brain trrrorislam5

And John McClone, while a POW, collaborated with the North Vietnamese. He issued statements condemning the "U.S. War of Aggression against North Vietname", and made radio broadcases praising NV air defense systems.

During the Korean War, this would have been viewed as treason.

But John McClone gets a pass from the Righties. Why?

I don''t fault someone for what they do under duress.

But it''s hardly a major talking point to McClone''s credit.

Just once I would like to see him do an impression of Lurch from the Adams Family. He has the build & the face to do a great Lurch. I think he could nail it!

Grampy McSame offers nothing but more more. He voted with McBush 95% of the time.

Your right wing extremists should grow up and talk about the issues that affect me and my kids. Instead of just criticizing President Obama, give me one reason to vote for McSame. Just one, please.

Awesome speech last night, Senator Kerry!!
It didn''t really get the attention it deserved, being in between the headliners President Clinton and Senator Biden.
Fortunately, I watch the convention on C-Span because I like to listen to the whole speeches and not have them interrupted by pundits who think they, themselves, are the show.
I do watch some of it on PBS though because they actually have Political Historians do an analysis after the speeches (and they actually know what they are talking about).)

... He''s why America has a 15% approval rating of Congress
Posted by dante805 at 10:43 AM : Aug 28, 2008

Not at all. I''m sure the majority wishes he was president all along.

Congress'' disapproval is due to the ineffectiveness of the dems to override the ''pubs & w''s vetoes. You''ll know that''s true when more ''pubs are replaced with dems this fall.

In other words, the 15% approval is because of the ''pubs.

By definition John McCain is not a maverick. He is smack center of the most regressive iteration of the G.O. Pee we have seen since Nixon.

And he voted with the leader of the G.O. Pee over NINTY FIVE PERCENT OF THE TIME.

He is an Abramoff-fed lobbyist meatpuppet.

None of these politicians represent the "average american". They are ALL wealthy and powerful...

Joe Biden''s net worth, including investments, is $100-150k. I know truck drivers worth alot more.

Just call him Average Joe.

The same Mediocrity that will cause the hard working, innovative Americans and the small businessmen and women to resent the government%u2019s hand being so deep in their pockets in exchange for some votes does not come without consequence. The same Mediocrity will cause the job producers to close shop or lay people off rather than deal with such idiocy, bureaucracy and taxes.

Vote MCCAIN. THE SMARTER CHOICE

ell lets see--the "government" currently rewards companies who have moved their production overseas claiming it''s cheaper for the huge corporations to operate---NOT telling us that by hiring people like---oh lets say Nike---who pay Vietnamese sweat shop workers $29.00 a MONTH of the over 200% PROFIT---
What a deal!!!!!!!!!!!!

By rewarding big corporations to move overseas the small business ALREADY resents the government--what are you talking about???

I know it takes time to go through the withdrawls of Faux news, Lintball and Hannity---but really---you''d be doing yourself such a favor to dry out!!
