Political Punch

Most Americans are aware of the courageous service John provided as a naval aviator and POW . But few can fully appreciate how bad the egregious hospitality of the Hanoi Hilton was .His main concerns were for other POWs’ life threatening conditions and how he could assist their problems.

To this day John’s truthfulness, dedication and what he believes in is demonstrated by his sincere actions and service as a Senator of the United States of America. We could do a whole lot worse than vote for John Mc Cain as our next president.

A true conservative is against higher taxes.
A true conservative supports strong traditional families.
A true conservative believes that pro-life means more than just in the womb. It means, concern for and care of life through conception, infancy, childhood, adolescence, teen, adult, middle age, elderly to natural death.
A true conservative does not support embrionic stem cell research or cloning.
A true conservative supports parental rights.
A true conservative supports a strong military and nation defense.
A true conservative believes that we are each endowed with inalienable rights and have intrinsic individual value.
Values Voters, our candidate is MIKE HUCKABEE! He can win despite what the RNC and pundits say. He can go all the way to the convention. The RNC and pundits hope you will buy their lies so they can continue to control your lives for their benefit. Let show them we aren't listening any more!
He that hath an ear, let him hear!
Vote HUCKABEE and take back the freedom millions of Americans have fought and died for!!

Mr. Tapper,

You post comments and views that seem to garner a fair share of opinions and views from readers. But, I think you have missed a trend that is starting to emerge as the Obama candidacy seemingly gains momentum.

Tonight, I watched the Lou Dobbs report on CNN and saw, once again, that life long Democrats, usually in their 50's or older, are renouncing their ties to the Democratic Party.

In growing numbers, senior, middle class Democrats (one of the largest voting blocs) are becoming disillusioned with the party's recent direction and are replacing their party affiliation with "Independent."

These new Independent voters view an Obama candidacy as a hostile takeover of the Democratic Party, a coup with the potential installation of a left-wing, minority regime.

Members of this group do not usually specifiy who they WILL support, but they WILL NOT support another bid by an extreme Democratic candidate.

While some may view such statements as mere speculation or attempts to derail the aspect of an Obama candidacy, I believe that the trend is one that is growing.

Now, from personal experience, I know it to be true. Today, after being a registered Democrat for over 34 years, I filled out a new voter registration card and changed my affiliation to "Independent."

Hehehe i just read about the phone ads. Once again Obama has proven how he has not a single original thought in his head. I guess its plagiarism all over again ha?

MSNBC hates Clinton.

Reagan: You said that MSNBC broke the story? That is all I need to know. How credible is that source? Not very.

Reagan: You really have opened up a can of worms. Contributions given by people in many companies would certainly have to be returned if your premise were valid. You are inserting a wedge to discredit Clinton. Are you going to check all the candidates sources? Many companies have engaged and condoned such behavior by some of their employees. It either goes unreported, unsubstantiated, rolled under the carpet, and many women try to continue to keep quiet in order to keep their jobs. Ask women in many companies, and they might tell you of several cases where male employees watch pornography sites on the job, harass females, and maintain their positions of management with no repercussions from employees afraid to go outside to complain. It is not an isolated situation. If you asked them, many women will tell you that sexual harassment does occur in their workplace. It's not legal, but some get away with it.

You say the case is ongoing? Let it finish. I hope the guilty are punished. If you hope to use this case to gore Hillary, look at everybody's contributions. Maybe below the tip of the iceberg for Rezko?

Thank for posting, JT, but here's a llo behind Senator Clinton's ethics that might be interesting as well.

Sen. Hillary Clinton has declined to return $170,000 in campaign contributions from individuals at a company accused of widespread sexual harassment, and whose CEO is a disbarred lawyer with a criminal record, federal campaign records show.

The federal government has accused the Illinois management consulting firm, International Profit Associates, or IPA, of a brazen pattern of sexual harassment including "sexual assaults,” “degrading anti-female language" and "obscene suggestions."

In a 2001 lawsuit full of lurid details, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission claims that 103 women employees at IPA were victimized for years. The civil case is ongoing, and IPA vigorously denies the allegations.

"This is by far, hands down, the worst case I've ever experienced," said Diane Smason, one of the EEOC lawyers handling the lawsuit. "Every woman there experienced sex harassment, they were part of a hostile work environment of sex harassment. And this occurred from the top down."

Sen. Clinton’s spokesman, Howard Wolfson, told NBC News in a statement that the senator decided to keep the funds because the lawsuit is "ongoing" and because none of the sexual harassment allegations has been proven in court. "With regard to the pending harassment suit, as a general matter, the campaign assesses findings of fact in deciding whether to return contributions," Wolfson said.

MSNBC broke the story.
