Comments on: Katie Couric's Notebook: Campaign Turns Ugly

Neo-conservatism has now advanced to the republican conservatives who bestow their unwanted values on everyone whether they agree or not. It is a new philosophy that wants to regulate the masses, taking away constitutional freedoms and re-examining the constitution to fit their desires.

ALERT TO ALL MEDIA-McCain and his ilk are going to pull the same fear mongering and hateful talk that GW Bush used in 2000 and 2004.
They seem to think that calling the media in the tank for Obama and other such nonsense will scare off the media from covering all of the stories-it worked with the lead up of the Iraq war. The NY Times admitted today that they ran that story on the Ayers fantasy because the McCain campaign "pushed them". Well, excuse me, where are your journalistic ethics.

Where are the stories about all of the Americans suffering from the Bush economy, why don''t the news agencies ask follow ups when republicans try to throw this mess on Frank and Dodd??

I wonder and I am watching!!

Neoconservatism (or Neocon) is a right-wing political philosophy that emerged in the United States from the rejection of the social liberalism, moral relativism, and New Left counterculture of the 1960s. In United States, they align themselves with most conservative values, such as free market, limited welfare, and traditional cultural values. Their key distinction is on international affairs: they prefer a proactive approach internationally that would protect the national interests.

The term neoconservative was originally used as a criticism against liberals who had "moved to the right".[1][2] Michael Harrington, a democratic socialist, coined the usage of neoconservative in a 1973 Dissent magazine article concerning welfare policy.[3] According to E. J. Dionne, the nascent neoconservatives were driven by "the notion that liberalism" had failed and "no longer knew what it was talking about."[4]

This is typical of the rich and powerful when they do NOT want to share the wealth.

I ask you this, if you are an American and care about your country would you want to help when she needs help? If you are an American and your neighbor is in need, would you help him, if he was political? If your daughter were a republican and was being chased by a rapist, would she refuse the help of a democrat? If your Grandmother was in a car accident and bleeding but could not get help from a republican because she was liberal, would you be angry? I could go on and on with this but I think you get my drift. When this election is all done, no matter how or what is decided, we will have a new American President. I pray he will not be hated because he is black or that he is accused of something so far over the hill that it''s really stupid, dumb and ridiculous, that even a mutant knows better. Spewing hatred is UN-AMERICAN and in no way belongs in 21st century politics.

Lets stop with the dumb, stupid claims that we know are not true. Obama is a Black/White American. He is not a terrorist nor is he on the payroll of the Arab''s. That is really stupid, and you know it. You are spreading hatred and you should be accountable. Not one of US should be spreading trash like this. We are Americans!! Now think about, how you look in the eyes of the world when one of you hollers, "TERRORIST! KILL HIM!" I wonder what they think?

NeoCons! I love that word, it means new! It certainly fits me better than Socialist, Marxist, Communist, anti-militaristic, anti-capitalist, anti-heterosexual, anti-white, I think you get the picture but Katie says words "hurt" people. Yeah Katie these words are really gonna take a bite if two-faced Obama HUSSEIN gets elected.

[gloryb8]

Here is the most ridiculous thing of the day, a Sheriff in Florida said Barrack HUSSEIN Obama and now he is being investigated by the FBI. Can we possibly get any more ridiculous. Everyone should go around saying Barrack HUSSEIN Obama until Katie starts to cry!

[gloryb8]

Katie, when I used to watch you on the Early Show, you were good at the little garden and fashion spots but ever since you went to prime time you have been ridiculous! You think you are so cute! I saw you last night and you sounded just like a little girl when you said "why are they doing that?" referring to some comments at a McCain/Palin rally. Do you really naively believe the Demobrats are clean with everything they stand for? I don''t consider you an adult at all and I feel sorry for your ignorance. Why don''t you start reporting on the issues like voter fraud from ACORN and Obama''s alliances with terrorist, anti-american, hate-mongering ministers and slumlords. You don''t have the guts and that is the difference between you and Sarah Palin. She is a lady and you don''t know the meaning of the word.

I suppose Obama is leading us to the slaughter. His overall agenda for running for President is to blow up the country and turn every US citizen into a terriost muslim preaching the Koran to our sons and daughters. Ayers, CAIRS, Obama, al Queada all working together. One big subversive plot to destroy America. Meanwhile Michelle and his daughters are safely secured in a bunker with Rezko and all the Acorn members. I tell you, I gotta love you guys what a great Hollywood script. I think you''ve been watching to much TV.

dear ms couric...i have been an viewer of yours for many years, however, i have noticed a changed in your way of presenting the news. Your start the majority of your news with a negative intro just like the majority of the news casters. we know its realy hard times but don''t remind us constantly. Take notice of Senator McCains intros when asked a quesion. He knows its hard times and he understands the public knows it hard times but he some how manages to present this terriable times with some hope and support. It''s not the end of the world and always manages to tell us in his own way to hang-in-there. You may be losing me as one of your listener. Your interview with Gov.Palin was your worst yet. Palin is constantly asked out her exerience yet no one including yourself has ask Senator Oboma (in dept)about his exerience and then compare it to Gov. Palin experience for Vice President not President of this great country. ourresident..

Dear Americans,

I am appalled and dismayed with our current Government for the Government and by the Government policy.

I ask you what is being done with all of issues occuring and reoccuring in our Nation and the policy makers are not working to safeguard our futures, nor the futures of our children?

Anwwer: Nothing!

Everything from energy to economics to edcuation and security to enviroment to social security to taxes, nothing is being done to help US, the American, the worker, the taxpayer, the Family.

Does anyone remember from American History class what happened to the
British Tax Collectors????

It''s time for tea my fellow American.

God bless you all. God save us and our Country!!!!
