Absolutely correct, Snidely!

Are you OK? Did you take your meds today? This is racist, phoney hate mongering! Like your name is somehow better???

How about facts. How about truth?

As  for the latest "Too Little Too Late" in the wonderful world of paranoid bush cronyism (The big Bail Out): How about we all just go on welfare?

Nothing for our kids, but everything for Bush's buddies! Why isn't he in jail for malfeasance?

Andrew:

If Obama is on the take and part of groups like ACORN; if McCain blocked attempts to settle to account for POW/MIAs possibly left behind; why shouldn't the "ifs" be part of the discussion?

Third parties aren't a solution, it's just one more addition to the other two groups of idiots.

when did carter become part of this? if carter is involved, let's get nixon in here too. you want 4 more years of nixon?

as for mccain's character and integrity, they've both been assissinated during this campaign. he's flip-flopped quite a bit in the last 3 years regarding numerous national issues and his personal beliefs. in 2000 and 2004, he was dead-set against negative campaigning and hated karl rove. this time around, he's the king of negativity with his campaign commercials. teaching kindergartners sex ed? come on, people! you know that isn't true. and the spanish languiage commercial criticizing obama for his voting record reagarding a key immigration bill.......it didn't mention the fact mccain voted the same way as obama and actually thanked obama publically for his vote. up until this campaign, mccain always said roe v wade should not be overturned. to appease the religious right, he's for overturning it now. which mccain are you voting for? remember, he was for it before he was against it.

i'm not saying obama will be a great president. nobody can say he will be. neither can anyone say mccain will be. this country can not continue down the same path it has been on the last 8 years. regardless of what anyone says, nobody knows how to be President until he/she is actually on the job.

You seem to live in a world where Bush is responsible for everything and congress responsible for nothing even when the Dems are in control of same.  Please note that Bush put forth a bill in 2003 to redo Fan and Freddy as they seemed to be heading out of control and congress said no because they wanted to be sure that lower income groups could get mortgages.  I happen to not be a Bush fan, but the only group with lower approval ratings is congress and believe it or not, they write  the laws and are responsible for oversight.

We the people.

What Palin needs is to be at the business end of an aerial hunting plane!

i completely agree! how do we do that? we don't vote for the party currently in charge, especially since the man at the top of that party's ticket seems to think most things are fine and dandy and will continue a majority of the policies in effect now. the fundamentals of our economy are fine, right? we're in iraq for all the right reasons, right? bin laden's been dealt with, right? our standing in the world is as high as it's ever been, right? i'm sorry but we need different leadership and direction. mccain will not provide either. and if mccain does win the election, i'll pray for his health every single day!

C'mon Ken: Bush and his "ideology" oriented approach to everything and 0 skill at handling anything along with (yes, Zubaz, I agree in part)

the inability of the public to see beyond his phony games is responsible. The Dems had at best a 1 vote margain and Lieberman voted in a way his state would get the most pork it could. Congress alone can't do anything if they don't have the votes to override the incompetent bush's vetoes and Zu, you should know that. Just remember: If we screw up this time, no one says we'll be able to recover.

The truth hurts: We have been profligate in our spending, inadequate in our saving and greedy in our investing. A RADICAL overhaul is needed: Regulating Wall Street should have been done and it's OUR responsibility to demand from the pols what is best for this country.

Too long we have abrogated our responsibility. The people, WE the people get the government we deserve...for the better or worse.

Calling each other names will not help. Villifying and demonizing each other won't either. Palin is not ready. Palin is presenting false claims and false credentials and wasn't properly vetted by McCain who is known for his impulsiveness and her nomination was yet another "Gotcha!" because Obama didn't (and should have) nominated Hillary.

Let's face it: This election is too important not to participate in so whichever way you feel, vote.

Adn do ti ofnet!

Oh how I love elections... they bring out the worst in some people... especially politicians.

It'd be comical if it weren't for the millions who'll be adversely affected by the bullshit and broken promises of who ever get in.

I've endured plenty.  Not a POW though.  However, I don't use that as an excuse for anything.  When asked about how many houses him and his wife own, he somehow worked in that he was a POW.  WTF is that?  All I'm saying is people should stop using his experience as a POW for excuses.  Thank you WOM, that's all WOM.

While you are at; it tell me where it's the federal goverment's place to be a welfare state and how dems in office would make that any better.

We have the right to Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  Happiness isn't a right; being able to get off your ass and doing it yourself is. 

Best lines in this whole thread right there.

Agreed.  I assume that that is Bush's fault as well?  I am not as willing to assume that 50% of the country are just morons who all got fooled by Bush into acting as you describe.  If that is the case that he has got to be incredibly brilliant and powerful.
