Oh Get off your pedestal, you republicans are just mad because every time you take office our economy falls and your just mad because the only way we can rebound is with a democrat in office

Current Democratically controlled Congress has set several records.

9% approval rating

5 self approved weeks vacation

Yep just great ! Democramps just rule

Here we are debating about the presidential candidates and you bring up congress. Every one knows that if a party does not control the congress and white house that things don''t get done.

But this is just another ploy that you people use. you dodge the issue and bring up stuff that is irrelevant to what has been discussed.

LMFAO !!!!!

Well they get get to hear Barbara Streistans nasty tired singing. Sadly they probably had to listen to her bable on about how she is wealthy and wished "others" would help the poor.

Again your not up to date on your story. The Steistan event was a separate event. Check your Stories

A lot of these comments are just amazing. Have all of you forgotten that we are all Americans? We don''t always agree on everything, but we all have the same basic wants/needs. This constant bickering between dems and repubs is SO tiresome! How about really educating yourselves on the issues. Personally, I won''t be voting for either of these candidates. It''s too bad the press gives us no coverage or information about other people running for president. The two-party system is becoming increasingly disconnected with average Americans. It gives no option for most of us other than picking the better of two evils. Instead of slamming each party back and forth, how about discussing what each candidate will or will not do? Bottom line is that neither candidate will do much of anything. Our divided congress will see to that.

And with that, freeanswers, you have been dismissed. You have nothing worthwhile to say and you''''re only using up forum space typing the same thing.

I second that motion. Sir you have been dismissed!

(CBS/ AP) Barack Obama partied with Hollywood celebrities Tuesday night and with the help of Oscar-winning singer and actress Barbra Streisand

Meanwhile John McCain was out listening to voters in Blue Collar Ohio.

Hmmmm...

Quote from McCain''s HOLLYWOOD fundraiser:

%u201CI would like to thank so many brave and courageous people who are here that happen to be in the business of Hollywood who are risking their entire futures and careers,%u201D

And what did McCain do the night before you idiot? God when you look at the story get the whole picture or don''''''''t post. McCain partied with Miami Elite the night before!!!!!!!

Posted by dj292009 at 02:14 PM : Sep 17, 2008

The picture is very very clear..

Obama prefers the Hollywood stars to regular people.

Get over it, the man is a Liberal Elite, not a person

of our people.

Barabara Streistand = pompous spoiled Biotch

So you mean to tell me that the elite McCain had the night before that raised him $5 million was just the average worker? Or are you saying that it''s ok for McCain to party with elites but not Obama

Oh, Barack Obama? You''''''''re newly-minted celebrity candidate with no real-world experience but a knack for lying every time his lips move? Yes, I would say your characterization is dead on. He is sucking up to Celebs as we speak.

I guess that door swings both ways. Sarah Palin has just as much experience. Unless you call being able to see Russia Experience. God her State has less people than the Chicago Metro Area.

So, what''s your point?

McCain attended a fundraiser at the Beverly Hills Hilton at the end of August, which included a number of Hollywood Republicans, capping off a $4.7 million, two-event day in the Golden State.

McCain is the ultimate opportunist and gold-digger. He married a heiress and at last count owns 7 homes -- although he can''''t really remember how many homes he owns -- he''''s getting a little senile.

You must be a bit senile yourself since you can''t remember that you keep posting the same thing over & over. That''s a sign of dementia.

Also I need to make a small correction to your new campaign slogan for McCain

"Ready to Follow Bush" George Bush the Change this country needs"

A true "celebrity," without real experience to become commander-in-chief in a dangerous world.

So Obama netted money from a Hollywood fund-raiser. He needs the cash because the media is always lying about him. Most of his money comes from people like me, and I''m sending him another nickel and dimes contribution in a few days.
Let''s look at McCain. Who supporte him? All the wealthy lobbyists and CEO''s who are currently getting all sorts of bail-out money. McCain doesn''t care about the national debt, or which little people he hurts, as long as he can give permanent tax breaks and tax cuts for the rich.
While the press makes a big to-do about Obama''s fund raiser, they say nothing about the people who support McCain. Isn''t time for balanced reporting?

P.S. McCain had a Hollywood fundraiser last month.

God are you people stupid. Who Runs the Millitary is the President your right, but who are his military advisors? To Ranking Generals of the Military. Stop your ranting and get over it. You guys are about as lame as the day is long

That''''s exactly what I said earlier. The Republicans haven''''t been able to top what the Democrats raise. It''''s jealously pure and simple.

I think your right

Obama is in Hollywood with filthy rich Elites.

McCain is in Ohio with working folks.

Hmmmmm..."

Another classic Republican. Taking half the story and using that against the other. They must be ashamed that they made 5 million the night before
