So true. I laughed when McCain was saying he''s the agent for change thinking no intelligent person can think that''s true since he''s part of the party who has been running things. Then I see the post on here and remember that most Republicans are not intelligent.

[Has anyone else noticed that McCain/Palin are trying to appear to be Democrats?]

nothing new ... gwb did the same thing in 2000 ... co-opting the issues that gore was using ... and they branded themselves ''compassionate conservatives''.

[He doesn''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''t want people to realize that he intends to turn their country into some fomenting European entity where they cater to their immigrant labor force, which will put Obama''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s corrupt Muslim brethern in power in the US! Obama ABSOLUTELY wants people to over look his ACTIONS! ]

StormyOne"
You must have been born with a "silver foot" in your mouth. Or probably you gained independent wealth from your family or maybe all those jobs you have? Seems that you have listed several..........lol
It seems that finally the public have awakened to you and your ilks..hatred..deception and downright hate mongering. Wonder if that is what "The Decider" had in mind when he said he was "The Uniter"?

Jax has no source to back his allegations up. Leave it to the Republicons All Fiction No Facts. Have people noticed that when we try to debate the issues with McCain supporters they keep bringing up Obama''s family. Just like their dear beloved Palin who keeps side steping the Media. Wow what a leader. She can''t talk to the media and when she does an intereview (her ONLY one) she can''t even answer the questions. Her answer to does she have the credientals of national security: "I can see Russia from here in Alaska." Wow if thats all she needs for credentials, then obama is over qualified to be our president

Public record is backing her up....and the screechings of some old library crone who wasn''''t doing her job is just screeching

Not too much been made public about your screeching Palin.
Oh I forgot.......she has joined the ranks of the elite. Karl Rove ring a bell? Above the law. Refuse subpoenas and get off scott free? Most people would be put in jail for that.............

Does Stormey start to twirl rapidly and explode when proven wrong?

Has anyone else noticed that McCain/Palin are trying to appear to be Democrats?

They rant against "corruption" and the "failures" of REPUBLICAN leadership and I couldn''t believe an earlier speech where McCain actually mentioned Republicans as a cause of the problems we''re now facing.

They DON''T put their party on their signs and use "Democrat Blue" for their background on their signs.

I started to NOTICE this LACK of IDENTITY in a LOT of the Republicans running for office.

Sheesh you''d think they''''re EMBARRASSED by THEIR OWN PARTY.

But the candidates for the HIGHEST OFFICE refusing to acknowledge on their signs they are REPUBLICANS and trying to HIDE that fact TOO???

Where are the BRIGHT RED backgrounds I USED TO SEE on their signs and the word REPUBLICAN PROUDLY DISPLAYED on those signs?

Where is the TRUTH as to WHAT PARTY they belong to?

I see a LOT of Democratic SIGNS PROUDLY DISPLAYING their PARTY affiliation.

GOP - the "STEALTH PARTY" HIDING their IDENTITY and acting like IDENTITY THIEVES stealing the OTHER Candidate''s PLATFORM, signs, ideas, etc in hope of MISLEADING voters??

How PATHETIC can Republicans get by trying to be Democrats? OWN UP and CHANGE PARTIES if you''re going to use the SAME platform and talking points!

That way maybe the Constitution Party or Libertarian Party might have a chance.

Obama is using the financial crisis so people will get off talking about his communist activities, his supporting terrorists, and his participation in every anti-American group in the US!

He doesn''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''t want people to realize that he intends to turn their country into some fomenting European entity where they cater to their immigrant labor force, which will put Obama''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s corrupt Muslim brethern in power in the US!

Obama ABSOLUTELY wants people to over look his ACTIONS!

Again Jax Publishj your Credible Source. Thats the second time I have asked that you have not responded. Strike Three you lost

In fact when it comes to making that ballot...you seriously think people will mark it and put some pinko commie Marxist in our White House?

If the alternative is the senile one and his moose hunting sidekick, lots of us will.
