We need to know answers to many questions about Obama. How close was his relationship to communist Frank Marshall Davis when he was a teen in Hawaii (Obama''''s book says very close - we need details)? How close was Obama to Marxist terrorists Ayers and Doerhn? If Obama says not close, we need an answer as to why his political career was launched in Ayer''''s living room. Why did Obama decide to go to Chicago after graduating college? Was it because Davis was from Chicago originally? How did it happen that Obama became an Alinsky type community organizer in Chicago, just like Davis once was? Did Davis initiate the relationship between Obama and Ayers? All of these important questions and many others need to be answered. Why is the media ignoring them???

We all serve our country if we work and pay taxes. This is unlike many of the slimy corporations and rich CEOs who are as un-patriotic as you can get. They only serve their own greed in running the United States government.

yeah john mccain was in the navy so what!!

he was not a good pilot, bush was a pilot too and look how he turned out... the worst president in history!!

[wellhell3]

Obscamma couldn''t fight his way out of a paper damned bag!

How anybody thinks he could support and defend this country is the biggest joke going!

The only thing he knows is kissie kissie smoochie, let''s all feel better and sing kum bah yah! But first give me all your damned money...I need an airplane to ride with NO US flags on it so I can travel in the manner to which I want to become accustomed!

Presidents with no military experience:

John Adams (Federalist)
Thomas Jefferson (Democratic-Republican)
John Quincy Adams(Democratic-Republican)
Martin Van Buren (Democrat)
Grover Cleveland (Democrat)
William Taft (Republican)
Woodrow Wilson (Democrat)
Warren Harding(Republican)
Calvin Coolidge(Republican)
Herbert Hoover(Republican)
Franklin Roosevelt (Democrat)
Bill Clinton (Democrat)

Five Republicans, five Democrats, two Democratic-Republicans, one Federalist. John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Martin Van Buren, Woodrow Wilson, and Franklin Roosevelt all successfully served as wartime Presidents, despite their lack of military service. The U.S. was part of the NATO peace-keeping forces in Bosnia while Clinton was President.

Seems as if military service isn''t so necessary to being a good President/CIC after all.

There''s no doubt in my mind that we will prevail and there''s no doubt in my mind, once these people are gone, that we will be welcomed as liberators. --on the Iraq war - john mccain

Hasher 471, why don''t you admit your just jealous of mcCain''s exemplory service record in the military and to our country and all your lies are falling on deaf ears. Tell me, what great things has Obama done?????None, Nada! He keeps talking about change, what change? Oh I remember, I have to run out and inflate my tires to save on gas, daaa, I''ve been doing that for years and yet the gas prices keep skyrocketing. Aren''t we lucky to have a candidate with such big changes!!!!! May heaven help us. Howdydoody6 Aug.7, 08

I think Id just commit suicide -in October 2006, on the prospects of the Democrats taking back the Senate in the November election - yours truly john mccain

[drillusion4u]

Peterp111 - As for those who are supporting Obama- You are just naive fools.No black man will ever lead this country. Wake the F up.

hey people like you is the reason why this country is F-cked up!!

[realpatriot1]

johnbush2,

What percentage of independents did the poll say were sick of seeing McCain talking about Paris Hilton, tire guages,topless bikini contests, and name that tlking point contests?

What percentage want to know what he''s going to do to address the problems his party created?

[drillusion4u]

Howdydoody6 - you talk a lot of $hit for someone that has not served our country!!

[drillusion4u]

Howdydoody6 - he is serving his country by being a senator!!!

[flreason]

Peterp111:

Actually, Obama did stop and visit wounded troops at Walter Reed, and visited a combat hospital in Iraq. He chose not to take press with him either time. Sort of suggests that he takes those visits seriously, doesn''t it? The last minute cancellation in Germany was Pentagon torpedoed. He had no plans to include the press in the visit. What''s notable is that he could have cried foul and blamed Republicans...but chose not to.

[drillusion4u]

the greatest American who served our country and dedicated his life to our country?

what the hell? just because he served in the military does not mean he is a better american you - now thats BS, mccain was doing his job, thats what we sign up for, every time he flew his jet he knew the hazards of his chosen profession...

[howdydoody6]

When did Obama everrrrrrrr serve his country in the military??????? Howdydoody6 Aug. 7,08 12:00Noon

[peterp111]

My talkingpoints?!! Blow it out your A-- Your talking points are worthless and ignorant- As for those who are supporting Obama- You are just naive fools.No black man will ever lead this country. Wake the F up.

Obama''s Projection of himself- :
''It''s like these guys take pride in being ignorant,'' he says in response to the McCain campaign''s tire gauge stunt that mocked his suggestion to keep tires properly inflated.

[howdydoody6]

Hasher 471 I want to see the proof that John McCain, the greatest American who served our country and dedicated his life to our coutry, made propaganda VD''s. As for crashing 2 planes you idiot, he didn''t do it on purpose, he had no choice. As for you, you wouldn''t have lasted 5 minutes in a POW camp being tortured and interogated day in and day out, living in squalor conditions while you were sitting on your rear end enjoying all the freedoms America had to offer.One of my closest friends who was a Lt. Colonel was also a POW for 7 years so don''t tell me I don''t know what I''m talking about. Obama wouldn''t even go visit the wounded soldiers in the hospitals on his European trip thats how much he cares. If you think he''s going to get the vote of the military and their loved ones, think again. Howdydoody6 Aug.7, 08
