- McCain would cut taxes by $628 billion over the next 10 years and that Obama would raise them by $734 billion over the same period...

When McCain does his cuts, how would we be able to do anything else in this country ? Where does he plan for the money to come from ?? - While Obama claims to only increase taxes for those earning over $250,000 - sooooo, what''s an additional $200 going to do to the pocket book of the over $250k club .... when you''re truthful with yourself, your answers become very clear as to why McCain sounds to most as being very Senile.

- Barack Obama%u2019s assertion that the only problem with higher gas prices is that they%u2019ve gone up too fast %u2014 saying he%u2019d prefer a %u2018gradual%u2019 increase instead %u2014 shows how clearly out of touch he is with Americans struggling with record gas prices. At a time when Americans need relief at the pump, Barack Obama%u2019s support for higher gas prices and higher energy taxes is just another example of his weak economic judgment,%u201D said McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds.
We%u2019ve also seen widespread reports of local law enforcement and police departments having to reassess how they are going to use their vehicles and their fleet, because of the strain that the high cost of gas is placing on their departments. So clearly it%u2019s not just working families. It%u2019s communities across the country who are struggling up under these high costs, high prices and for Senator Obama to indicate that we%u2019ll just have to get used to them is clearly an indication that he is out of touch,%u201D added Obama surrogate Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va. - Reply to this comment

- Anybody else not clear what the big picture is for the two candidates? Like McCain seems to be lying and overpromising the moon and the stars - he''''s for cutting taxes! he''''s for ''''winning'''' the war! AND getting rid of the deficit! AND we''''re all going to have healthcare! It doesn''''t add up.
And with Barack, I''''ve read that the estimates for the programs he''''s proposed also go into the red, but not as much as McCains''''...is that true?
Maybe all that stuff''''ll all get refined as we go along (?)

Isn''t it strange, Obama has made the same promises and YOU believe him! When he has no leadership record at all of having done ONE thing!
Really strange how that works, isn''t it. Especially about a buy that has flat out bald faced LIED about everything, including his damned ancestors! - Reply to this comment
- Obama%u2019s judgment over the years has shown his selection of friends, mentors and church, close advisers, and now his choice of consultants places a dark cloud over his ability to select a Cabinet. Sometimes all you have to evaluate a person is by their actions, manners, conduct, their associates and activities and in these realms Obama gets a 0.

- Barack Obama will be the focal point of this election. If Americans find him to be an acceptable choice for president, he will probably win, given all the factors that are working in his favor. But if the doubts that have persisted about him begin to grow and metastasize %u2013 if large numbers of Americans come to believe that the Obama appeal is, at its core, a mirage %u2013 then McCain has a real chance to prevail. And if he does, the Democratic party and liberalism will have a nervous breakdown unlike any we have seen.
Democrats remain hopeful, but they are also beginning to harbor some doubts and even fears. This may not be as easy as they thought.
Stay tuned.

- THE NATION WILL LIVE TO REGRET WHAT THE COURT HAS DONE TODAY,,,
VOTE DEMONIC-RAT AT YOUR PERIL,,,
DEMONIC-RAT UN-SUPREME COURT JUDGES TRASH THE CONSTITUTION,,,
Scalia asserted that the decision will have dire consequences. He warned that some detainees will be freed and return to war against America: "The nation will live to regret what the court has done today."
Supreme Court maintains post-9/11 course on Gitmo
The Supreme Court''s 5-4 decision Thursday declaring for the first time that Guantanamo detainees have a constitutional right to a hearing in U.S. courts is a milestone. It also reinforces a familiar court pattern in the post-9/11 world of insisting on judicial review of detainee cases.

- People ought to either wake up from their fog, start reading non biased news, or open your eyes to the truth because McCain is not Bush- and Obama is not experianced. The Democrat will raise your taxes, has not been to Iraq, and has never talked to Petraeous. The USA needs a leader, not a boy who wants to learn on the job.

- John McBush - His own words 3 years ago on meet the press
RUSSERT: The fact is you are different than George Bush.
SEN. McCAIN: No. No. I-the fact is that I''m different but the fact is that I have agreed with President Bush far more than I have disagreed. And on the transcendent issues, the most important issues of our day, I''ve been totally in agreement and support of President Bush.
McCain went on to insist that, on domestic policies, he and the president had butted heads - which is true on issues like combating climate change and campaign finance.
"But," he quickly added, "I will argue my conservative record voting with anyone''s, and I will also submit that my support for President Bush has been active and very impassioned on issues that are important to the American people. And I''m particularly talking about the war on terror, the war in Iraq, national security, national defense, support of men and women in the military, fiscal discipline, a number of other issues. So I strongly disagree with any assertion that I''ve been more at odds with the president of the United States than I have been in agreement with him." - Reply to this comment
- PS And by cut spending, don''t we all want to know what specifically each of the candidates think can be cut from spending? Especially McLame? All he''s mentioned is that bear study in Oregon or whatever . . .
