AGAIN, here''s another one! You want to blame what the Bush Neocons have done on the CLINTON''s????

Get a brain! The ignorant voters put this idiot in office TWICE!

[whitepicks2]

The Democratic party could stay with a candidate they know, of whom they are comfortable and familiar. Or they could embrace a new generation of leadership with a new understanding of a new age and new policies and ideas.

Obama''s endorsements show that people who best understand the urgency for a new direction within the party have the courage to change. The public outside Iowa, so far, not so much.

Arizona governor Janet Napolitano, and U.S. Sens. Ben Nelson of Nebraska, and Tim Johnson of South Dakota among others understand that a new generation of leaders - unbound by old policies, old commitments and arrangements, old deals and old friendships - can move America beyond the gridlock which is destroying our country.

This is a time when America must leave old politics behind. This election is about transition not power.

Jack would rather have more Neocon destruction of this country rather than get over a little embarrassment created by the Neocons against Clinton.

It''s thinking like this that is really scarey!

Agnim: If you recall the count on the votes between Bush & Gore it was almost a tie, Bush won by a very slim margin, alot like what will occur again come this November when Republicans win over the Democrat by a slim margin. Why?.. becasue you are right, why have the nonsense of the Clintons back in the WhiteHouse to embarress this country yet again?! Lets make it a wider margin!

samsel3,
Also don''t forget that all the candidates in both parties (except Ron Paul) are members of the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) just like Bush.

We can all talk about the past, but what about now and the future ? Presently the CNP Council for National Policy is planning your future. This secretive organisation of several hundred of the richest men in the USA put Bush & Cheney in office to accomplish their global agenda. In September 2007 they met again in Salt Lake City. Cheney & Mitt Romney were keynote speakers. Romney wants their backing. The CNP wants to continue their agenda in global market control for BIG OIL & allied industry in the next election. National media outlets are owned by their members. Who will expose them? Who will stop their insanity and destruction of constitutional freedom ? Who will stop their misuse of the military to promote their global agenda ?

Prinzowhales,

I''m not accusing Iran of anything or advocating a pre-emptive strike, in fact i think that would be foolish. However, let''s say that the U.S. begins pulling out its troops and Iran attacks them during the pullout. Should we not attack?

Leaving military action as an option on the table is diplomatic speak to keep the pressure on the other side to negotiate in good faith; most people understand this. Has Iran ruled out military action against our troops?

There''s a huge difference between this diplomatic talk and actively supporting a policy of pre-emptive war and when you act as though they are the same you are promoting simplistic leftist nonsense.

Obama, in not ruling out a war of aggression while calling for continued involvement in Iraq and for an invasion of Pakistan, is squarely in the War Pig Camp--his vote against the Iraq war notwithstanding, he is plenty willing to drink the blood, he just didn''''t want to make the kill.

An excellent post.

It is unfortunate the voters are aiming for much of the same again by eliminating one who wants troops out now (Edwards); McCain, who thinks running from Viet Nam was a mistake (he could not win from behind bars in his Hanoi prison) now thinks the US could have won if they stayed indefinitely, thereby spending another 10,000 American lives. Therefore he wants to bet the rest of our finances on endless war In Iraq to prove his point. Some other candidates who want to end the war are slowly being sidelined. Maybe it is just American to want a war, just as long as someone else''s kids are doing the fighting, and the soldiers'' families are doing the sacrificing.

I threw away my meaningless $5 Support The Troops metallic sticker, and watch with disinterest the headlines of last week (9 U.S. deaths in one day) and today (3 U.S. deaths by "friendly" fire.

As the fellow who walks around Washington with his wheelbarrow full of pacemakers, defibrillators, blood pressure monitors and the like said "The insurgency is in it''s last throes."

Economics 101

Understanding how the self-absorbed and self-destructive Clintons helped to build and then initiate the destruction of the US economy to this day.

1. Every intelligent mind should know by now that THE UNPROVOKED & ARROGANT BUSH WAR IS THE MAJOR CAUSE OF THE PRESENT DESTRUCTION OF THE US ECONOMY?

2. The huge depletion of the US treasury gives rise to inflationary pressures, weakening of the dollar and a huge loss of confidence in the fundamentals of the US economy by business people THE WORLD OVER.

3. Every alert American must have known that bush wasn''t qualified to lead the nation, and that Al Gore would have continued the successful economic policies of his and the Clintons'' administration.

4. So why were the American people so careless and mindless in allowing the bungling bush over Gore?

5. The American people allowed the bungling bush over Gore because they were disgusted by the Clintons misbehavior, which fouled the White House, destroyed what marriage they had and undermine the US Presidency.

6. That self-destructive behavior by the self-absorbed Clintons was what initiated the undermining of the US Presidency and allowed the bungling bush to get a chance to mindlessly wage a foolish, UNPROVOKED war that subsequently empty the national treasury and destroyed the US economy.

7. Only the most ASLEEP/careless Americans would want/wander into another round of the Clinton destructiveness. NO CLINTON THIRD TERM! END THE SELF-DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA!
