Hillary crying "Foul" again. Is this a recording or what? Obama has proved to be a very formidable canidate remaining Positive while Hillary has nothing to run on, she has to attack him personally. You''re witnessing the Clinton campaign going though it''s "Death Throws". OBAMA ''08!

Hinojoso is either being played or paid. I would hope he was educated enough than this. She wants these votes, thats why she is hitting the Rio Grande valley so hard. She really believes the hispanic community is that blunt and uneducated that they will beleive anything she says. Don''t Let this lady rip appart the Heart of TEXAS.

Be careful.
A lot of insults, slander, and insinuations, will be tossed about in the coming months most coming from the Clintons.
Don''''t be misled by those who try to misinform you.
Do your own homework.
Obama remains, after all that, a breath of fresh air.
Many Washington pols, the Clintons and McCain included, may not welcome a person like Obama, but I do, as do many others.
Obama is a devout Christian.
Insults, innuendos, accusations, and unlimited vitriol will be shouted from the rooftops by the Clintons, as they continue to lose.
Don''t believe everything you see or hear, do your homework and check it out yourself.

I just love hearing all this infinite wisdom being spewed by people who have not a clue of what they are talking about. Texas politics have been craftily skewed FOR YEARS to favor the Republicans. It has nothing to do with Hillary or Obama. It is virtually impossible for a Democrat to get elected to any office across this state. Moreover, quit inferring that HILLARY said anything or is concerned about anything and read the stupid article. It clearly states that some of her supporters are concerned about these issues and rightly so. In truth they are just as concerned over the issue for Obama as well. Its not an attack on candidates - its an attack on the Democratic party that is an issue in Texas.

Ahhh, I think you are going to need more than a "gentleman" when it comes to getting down and dirty with the terrorists.

"Screw the vets. If these people had a brain of their own they would have gone to school.

I do have a brain and I did go to school just as many of the members of my unit did.

At this time in history the military may be being used for very questionable reasons, but their fate is not theirs to decide. The very fact that you can post a slam on the military without being hunted down and having your tongue ripped out and your thumbs cut off, is a testament to the freedoms you have gained at the cost of the lives of millions of servicemen and women since the founding of this country.

You owe them your undying gratitude for guarding your right to say stupid $hit.

John McCain is a very respectable man and I would not hesitate to vote for him under the right circumstances. He would gain my support because he operates as a gentleman, dealing with important issues with a sense of collegiality and fair-mindedness. It baffles me that it has been said many times that "Republicans find it hard to support McCain because of his campaign finance reform....". Why would that be a partisan issue? John McCain is a reformer, and a sensible one. However, to suggest that he has some kind of "experience" advantage is... I think.... a bit misleading. He has not been the top leader of anything, whether it be a government, a company, or even in the military. That is not to say that he wouldn''t be a good president.... I believe he would be. Nonetheless.... if Obama wins the Democratic nomination, he will get my support. He is a number of times more the reformer than John McCain is... he is more dynamic, energetic, and inspiring.... and he puts importance upon a much broader range of issues, while at the same time appearing to recognize the less productive aspects of the liberal ideology that informs many of his policies. The best of both worlds would be a leader who effectively promotes the interests of all members of society and who also effectively demands of and inspires all of those citizens toward the greatest degree of self sufficiency and common purpose.

AntiZion - Isn''t it funny how many different ways bigotry rears its ugly head? Your hatred of military people and stereotyping them as ignorant and too stupid to go to college is so typical. Since you can''t possibly understand what motivates them you choose to denigrate their reasons for serving.

Now if somebody had said women should stay barefoot pregnant and in the kitchen what would you have said??
