same old fear and smear campaign tactics-after showing his wild man angry tactics in threatening to fire the SEC chairman (which the president cannot do unilaterally) this man has offered nothing in the way of concrete proposals only glittering generalities like this will never happen again under my watch or changes coming we will shake-up wall Street. great sentiment but as they say the Devils are in the detail-so what does this man offer since he''s on record as saying he is a deregulation kind of guy as late as May 2008 but as of September 2006 Obama began warning about the impending subPrime mortgage meltdown ... certainly looks to me like John McCain out of touch and pretty dangerous

Forget about the Presidential race. There is a story on Page 1 about a woman who had a stroke in the middle of an ***.
I don''t care if the economy collapses, I want to know if it will still be safe to use Viagra.
Congress had better form a committee right away to look into this. I want to make sure that I will be able to keep doing what the politicians are doing to me.

I am a bit confused here. I guess I am kind of dumb when it comes to understanding political parties and maybe someone can explain it to me.

In 1860 the Republicans were the liberal, Federalist Party and the Democrats were the conservative Ant-Federalist Party. In essence, that was the basis for the Civil War. The Republicans said they wanted a strong federal based government and the Democrats wanted less federal control. Now the Democrats are the liberal, federal party and the Republicans the conservative anti-federal government party. How did that happen?

I would have assumed that if the individual voters had changed their positions they would have just changed parties. It sounds though as if the power brokers running the parties abandoned their positions and altered them to go along with the political winds. But, that can%u2019t be what happened.

I know that the people who are at the top of the party systems would not be so cynical as to give up the values they said they believed in just to remain in a position of power. Let%u2019s face it, the NAACP and the Ku Klux Klan aren%u2019t going to just switch positions without a good reason. So why did the Republican leaders and the Democratic leaders switch positions? It wouldn%u2019t be to keep themselves in power. Would it? We can trust the parties not to abandon their values as an expediency of holding on to power, can%u2019t we?

Republican John McCain recommends a commission to kick the can down the road until he can resume his policies to extend deregulation even further into the business community. Republican John McCain recommends an illegal act by the president firing an SEC chairman. Assuming the SEC Chairman deserves to be replaced (I''m not so sure); why do we have yet to hear a single utterance as to what he would expect his new SEC Chairman to do that the old SEC Chairman did not?

A drop in the polls and it''s back to FEAR and smear. Same old ***, same old McBush.
You know, McSame can drop Palin, pick up Paris Hilton and get another bounce for a week or two and it would take everyone''s mind off the economy.

Eight years of Republican Rule has put the economy in the toilet, but "don''t know much economics" McClone, who has fallen completely into line with Bushit Economics, thinks more of the same is the cure?

McClone really thinks we''re stupid!

Record Debt, Record Deficits, Bank Failures, over 600,000 Jobs lost, needless wars, Poverty rates rising, Uninsured American''s rising, Unemployment rising... I could go on for an HOUR but everyone knows the record of McSame and the Republican''s. The question is who in their RIGHT MIND listens to a WORD they say about the economy or this nation as a whole. WHO??
