Political Punch

p.s. Sorry for the spelling. Little ticked off and worried right now. It's my life and my families at stake here.

Extremists again? Thaty is the only claim NoBama supporters have. Not wanting to brting this up but you talked me into it with your bs comments. One question should end the extremist comments. How many McCain supporters have been out vandalizing peoples cars and property because they have NoBama stickers or signs in the yard????? NONE!!!! There was a guy Accosted in my town on the street because he was hold a sign that said McCain for president. There have been several vandalisims marked on the books for McCain supporters. Cars, Houses, ther personal property just because they support McCain. HATE CRIMES IN THE NAME OF OBAMA!!! So what kind of president do you think he will be for pulling these kind of people to him? Extremists. Almost all democrats mights as well be liberals because they can flex thier morals around however they choose. No Offense to any that stand by thiert true morals. All the policemen in my division are voting for McCain. White, Black, and Other because they know that NoBama will endager thier lives and the lives of all other americans if he gets in office. So good luck to anyone that votes for Obama and needs police protection, because if he puts into action things that he says he is going to then half of your police departments will quit, and the other half won't give a damn about you because they will be to busy fending for thier lives.
Good Luck AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!! REMEMBER 9/11 AND BE PROUD TO STAND UP FOR YOUR COUNTRY!!

McCain is a good man, but an unacceptable presidential candidate, because he cares too little for details and facts. McCain's mood and behavior has been strangely erratic. His campaign has been disorganized and chaotic. Two years later, I still don't know what McCain wants to do for America. He has an affection for war, and a problem with truth. McCain attracts hateful extremist from outside the mainstream into his ranks. There are large numbers of heartless cruel people following him, evidenced by multiple blogs, who are unable to even empathize the loss of his grandmother. He also picked an unacceptable potential vice president. He is unacceptable, not to mention because his campaign has an obsession with fear, and a disregard for hope and optimism. The non sense spewed about Obama didn't work. It is sinking sand. Obama should win whether he does or not. Complaints about Obama do not stand up to basic scrutiny. Take a breath and relax, friends. Think about it, then Vote Nov 4th for Obama 08

But.....but......but.......what about McCain's "internal" polls?

You know, the ones no one else can see, that show a "tightening" race "within the margin of error"?

Did you know McCane was a POW?

And Sahara is just so pretty.

Vote McCane!!!!

geevill... it is because todays americans are money hungry and belive in anyone that can GIVE them morer money. What happened to working hard for your money? What happened to taking pride in the way you live? What happened to being thankful for making your own way and not recieving handouts? Well maybe you know what is like to feel that way. But how in the heck is he going to give 95% of americans a tax break when 60% of them don't pay taxes? I work in business that cashes checks every month, 90% of them are US treasury SSI and Disability checks. they pull up to cash these 600-1500.00 checks in brand new cars and trucks. Yet they live in government housing and get welfare and foodstamps. Can you tell me how i can qualify for that? I need help! I struggle paycheck to paycheck but i survive and I work hard for my money. My wife is a 23 year old type 2 diabetic, yet there is no assistance for me no matter what i try. Because i make too much money!! Now you figure out if you can live off 20000.00 a year with rent, bills, medical expenses, and medication, not to mention food and clothes. Have a good day and try thinking outside the box.

p.s. This post is to Sharonklim. "Thank God, and God Bless America for giving the wisdom to elect a brilliant man like Barack Obama President of the United States" If Obama read you post he would tell you that there is no room for God in our country. Mark my words. He will try his hardest to take away the values this country was based on. BECAUSE HE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN THEM OR OUR COUNTRY!!!

"57% of voters in the new NBC/WSJ poll say Obama has a set of values they can identify with."

Thanks for letting us know the poll is garbage. That means the poll does not reflect the population that is going to vote.

Thanks to all the supporters of Nobama for feeding the crackheads and 3rd generation welfare recipiants. I am a middle class worker that makes less than 20000 a year and can see the bullcrap Obama spits. He wants to do this and that yet he makes everything harder on the people that really need the support. He wants to take away concealed firearm carry for police officers and that puts them at risk when they are not on active duty. My father-in-law is my hero because he is a juvinile detective that deals with underage sex crimes and that puts him in danger from the very people he puts away for these crimes (and 99.9 percent are obama supporters because he will be taking care of them with a bigger check). You can say i am uneducated but i can see that this is going to be the worst thing that has happened to America since 9/11. Vote for someone who doesn't stand by his country, some that thinks this country is evil. I don't know about anyone else, but I LOVE MY COUNTRY! If you don't then let NoBama into office to ruin all we believe in. Good luck and God Save Us no matter what the outcome.

Linda, you left George Bush out of your educated-but-not-smart group of people. I think he wins the prize.

All this yapping about Obama being a socialist or Marxist who wants to spread the wealth is hilarious. It ignores that fact that 1) we've had a progressive tax system since 1910 and 2) socialism usually means that the state controls the economy and the means of production.

We're already on the way there thanks to Bush, McCain, and Greenspan's failed belief that the market would regulate itself. We are now all equity holders in nine of America's largest banks. That's called nationalization.

As for "spreading the wealth," McCain wants to tax my health insurance benefits so that he can pay for his inadequate health care tax credit. How is that not spreading the wealth?

McCain wants to spend $300 billion to buy up inflated mortgages from the banks and give homeowners lower interest mortgages. The banks don't lose a dime...we get to pick up the difference. How is that not spreading the wealth?

We've been spreading the wealth for the last eight years. Problem is it's been spreading up rather than around.

"In order for you to believe that metaphor, you have to think that there is a finite pie wholly owned by the State. The State then which gives it to people and not that people earn it."

The people are the state, in a democratic society. As such, yes, we have an absolute moral and natural right to exert control over our shared resources (which for the most part, ARE finite). Part of that right and responsibility is the determination that those who get the most benefit out of the social contract must put the most back in.

There are workable philosophical/social systems that operate differently -- but they're not democracies, and they're not America.

You may be college educated but there is a difference between book smart and just good old plain common sense. How many so called educated people are morons? Does Ayers ring a bell? How about Kahlidi? So before you defend Obama and Wright and Pflger and the rest of the horrific bunch don't put too much emphasis on your education.

Everyone please research the real facts. Words are cheap!! I have and this white female college educated Republican will vote for Barack Obama. Found John McCain and Sarah Palin are really just lying.

Fell for Republican nasty robocalls, false lies, attacks 2000 & 2004. Not this year - researched well what they claimed - lies - no more!! Republicans Campaign has been quite evil, not caring who they defame or destroy in process

These two have run the most despicable hate mongering and lying campaign I have seen. All proven with facts too!!

Everyone go vote!!

Obame - Biden!!!

The humiliating repudiation of McCain/Bush/Palin policies and politics is a mere 24 hours away. Thank God, and God Bless America for giving the wisdom to elect a brilliant man like Barack Obama President of the United States.

"than the middle class do for their piece of the pie. "

In order for you to believe that metaphor, you have to think that there is a finite pie wholly owned by the State. The State then which gives it to people and not that people earn it.

Good by all you “True Believers” I leave you with these quotes from the man who wrote your constitution. Not that you will take them to heart, your hero Obama doesn’t.

Ronald Reagan
"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free ... it expects what never was and never will be." —Thomas Jefferson

Still one thing more, fellow citizens — a wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circle of our felicities. —Thomas Jefferson

The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not. —Thomas Jefferson
Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have ... The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases. —Thomas Jefferson
The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first. —Thomas Jefferson

“If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.” —Thomas Jefferso

And one more.
The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money. - Alexis de Tocqueville

Retired Old Guy: "jhw539 See you fled the other thread. I don't support either of these clowns. I base my opposition to Obama on his words and associations. Still awaiting your comment."

Awaiting my comment on what? Did you miss this reply:
"Retired old guy: So it's his associations - not his actual proven record of achievements, leadership and lawmaking- that you are judging him on.

Luckily, the majority of modern America does not hold McCarthyism as their favored decision making approach."

Or for an example of Obama's actual record:
"Facts? What facts has the McCain campaign put forth? Can you give me a couple examples of good legislation John McCain has produced in his quarter century in the Senate? For Obama, look up information on the law requiring police to videotape confessions and interogations in serious crimes - an awful good law Obama wrote and, over initial Senate resistance and the governor promising a veto, ultimately passed with a bipartisan majority and was signed into law.

GIVE ME SOME FACTS - WHAT HAS JOHN MCCAIN *ACHIEVED* OTHER THAN SLANDER OBAMA?"

I'm not retired and I have work to do. I really don't have time to hold your hand.

And if you're interested about Right wing hate look up Liz Trotta of FoxNews joking about having Obama killed, or Al Austin (a former Republican Nation Party finance chair's) charming joke about if an airplane carrying Obama and his wife were blown up "it certainly wouldn't be a great loss, and it probably wouldn't be an accident either."

'.....Intelligence Report investigates whether the recent U.S. attack in Syria was motivated by John McCain’s sagging polls. '

"The wealthy pay almost everything now."

That's part one of the equation. Now divide by the percentage of wealth that is controlled by each bracket. Surprise! The small percentage of Americans that control 80%+ of all wealth and resources in this country pay significantly less, proportionally, than the middle class do for their piece of the pie.

The Bush tax cuts made a bad situation worse. It's past time to let them expire.
