It''s sad to see so many people accepting such destructive negative messages.

Our country will be scarred from this election for some time.

Vote for the candidate who is for talking about rebuilding America, not one who points fingers, just like the current president.

Yes, the last eight years have created a big mess. Senator Obama is well aware of the mess. A President needs to know what the issues are, know how to negotiate and find quality people to work with and beside him with the skill sets needed in each particular area. When I look at the candidates, Senator Obama has all of those qualities while Senator McCain does not. With Senator Obama there seems to be hope again. America needs that.

(1)Unprecedented media promotion and protection.
(2)Unprecedented sums of campaign money.
number (1) is caused by number (2). The people must like him.

(3)Unprecedented broken promises of campaign finance reform.
How can he? He isn''''t in office yet.

(4)Unprecedented inexperience for the office.
Every first time president is Inexperienced

(5)Unprecedented ties to criminals and terrorists.
Look at Ford, his boss was run out of office for criminal acts
(6)Unprecedented associations to voter fraud groups.
Unprovable

(7)Unprecedented capitulation to America''''''''s enemies.
Flat oout lie

(8)Unprecedented arrogance.
This is a crime? It''''s not arrogance if you know you are a winner.

(9)Unprecedented lack of good judgment.
As pertaining to what??? He is human after all.

(10)Unprecedented lurch towards a Socialist dictatorship.
Nope, the Bushes beat him to that.

I noticed not one person can say anything positive about McCain but can only attack Obama. Why is that? Maybe because there is nothing positive about McCain whatsoever.

McCain hasn''t said anything positive about what he will do as president. He only continues to attack Obama. He focuses on nonsense.

I guess people are afraid to focus on McCain. If they do, they would see what a sad, stupid man he really is.

Obama has once again LIED about his connections with ACORN. Could the truth be coming to light?

YOU BETCHA! --

A former staffer for an affiliate of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now testified today that the organization was provided a %u201Cdonor list%u201D from the presidential campaign of Barack Obama in late 2007 for fundraising efforts. Anita Moncrief, a former Washington, D.C. staffer for Project Vote, which she described as a sister organization of ACORN, said her supervisor told her the list of campaign contributors came from the Obama campaign. So much for, "just a guy in the neighborhood", so much for "I don''''t have anything to do with ACORN"

Do the lies have to smack you in the face for you to understand?

yeddle I assume these contacts with Arab organizations bothered you just as much as when the entire Bush clan was crawling into bed with teh Saudis who have been affirmatively linked to 9/11? And that your disgust and disdain absolutely required you to voted for Al Gore and John Kerry? Because if not, you are a hypocrite.

A year ago McCain began the campaign claiming to be the man who rode the white horse.
He ends his campaign riding on the coat tails of ''white power''.
It is pretty sad really.

Did you know that if Obama had to have a FBI back ground check he would fail. Now this is the guy people want in the white house.

''But Riley leaned toward the conclusion that the Ayers connection would not cost Obama a security clearance. ''The issue is what is Obama''s relationship with him in his adult life,'' Riley said. ''If he didn''t have one, other than they sat on a board and maybe had the same political causes, that''s not enough to deny a fellow a clearance.''

So all three of the attorneys we contacted agreed unequivocally that Obama''s relationship with Ayers would not be an automatic disqualifier, as the claim suggests.

In fact, Zaid said someone with Obama''s record--a law degree from Harvard, teaching experience at the University of Chicago Law School --would be an excellent candidate.

''The agencies would be fighting over him,'' Zaid said. ''As an outright claim, this statement is false.''

We agree. It''s False.''

ofbyfor3, there are 2 kinds of rich people.
Those who have created their wealth, and are just as likely to support the Dems.
Those who inheirited their wealth and are more likely to support the GOP.

Where did you get that reference?

I''d like to see it. TX

My pleasure, here you go.

" The President is merely the most important among a large number of public servants.

He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole.

Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right.

Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile.

To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.

Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else.

But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else. "

Theodore Roosevelt

Obama would only accelerate the economy''''s decline with "ideologically-driven plans to redistribute income."

Barack Obama is change Americans cannot afford

Posted by DemocracyWin at 11:59 AM : Oct 30, 2008

Yeah, Warren Buffett, one of the most successful capitalists EVER is endorsing and advising Obama because he wants to see his billions go down the tubes.

Yeah, right!
