joyous88,,,, I totally agree with you on the mess we are in & the terrible foreign policys ---- But Cheney & Rumsfeld are probably the 2 most experianced republicans in government

That should tell people something of how bad this GOP is for our country.

The ''body count'' is as meaningless now as it was in Vietnam, the criminal administration of GW Bush merely uses it in an attempt to prove themselves right.

they remain ,however, wrong, criminally wrong
BUSH belongs on trial as a war criminal

Don,,,,, Let me give you a good example -- The GOP attacked Clinton for years ever since the creation of NAFTA ---
--- Now McCain spins it to attack them for wanting to change NAFTA.

Don,,, I agree..... I can''t stand the advertising either --- That''s why I pay more attention to what they have to say on the issues rather than the adds & rhetoric.

Rowdy,,,, They are similar on many issues, some times it is hard to tell them apart.

,,, I''''m watching Hillary in Texas now doing something I''''ve been trying since 1999 to get them to start talking about ----- National Security

She blasted McCain out of the saddle on the subject, that''s my pet issu,e & we should have attacked repubs on it years ago. ---
-- The only reason people think the GOP is better on national security is their own lack of knowledge & the politics of fear.

The republican party has led us into every situation where we were involved in genocide & every time it''s hurt our national secoruty for decades.

J, the only redeeming thing about Obama is that he has echoed Hillary in every statement, he has basically (pardon the pun) xeroxed all her plans.

We the candidate who made the plans in the first place and has stood fast by HER platform!

Rowdy,,,, Friend you have to know the difference between running a committee & a sub-committe ------ Obama didn''''t have access to classified intelegence reports....

I know he didn''t. But that''s my point, J. He doesn''t yet have the experience and competence to do the great job that''s having to be done here. There''s a lot he just doesn''t know!

I just saw a most beautiful video on YouTube of kids singing a song praising Obama and promoting his presidency.

Most of the kids in this video have never supported a family on their own. Have never had to struggle to make ends meet. Have never, in fact, lived apart from their parents. One young one still a teenager claiming she wants a different kind of world for her new baby. She''s little more than a child herself! It is this kind of young cultist following that is going to shape our future? It is simply promomting an American Idol contest for who puts out the most touching video?

C''mon, wake up America!

Americans have a clear choice--they can vote for war, open borders and criminality or they can vote Third Party...for Ralph Nader or one of the other nominees...

Perzactly!

He has not one stance that he can claim of his own! Much less the same stance twice! Yet this is going to be the greater savior of the universe!

AJMarine1,,,, Obama wasn''t privy to intellegence reports -- Obama wasn''t in charge of the committee, only a sub-committee,,,, there is a big difference between the two.

What your GOP want''s you to believe is a straight up lie...
... Another reason to get pissed at the GOP taking advantage of the lack of knowledge here in this country.

Obama represented a very liberal state senator''s district and his statement against the Iraq war was, in many ways, as politically motivated as Nancy Peolosi''s position against immunity for the telecom companies.

IMHO, he has lucked out and ridden one call with good oratory into a strong run for the presidency.

He has not done much else.

Thanks. You have a good day too.

Watch out for those mad rivers and blue barns in the Mountains of Ohio. :-)
