Thank you Ron for that enlightening post. It always helps me in deciding to vote for to know who the reporters mock.

Funny.. I heard he never showed up to vote. Might want to do a fact find on that.

Also, Obama did vote on the bill because it had the largest policies ever in our history for clean energy, wind farms, clean coal...etc.

Every bill will be dirty.. that is way washington has been working... this is what I am hoping Obama will stop also. I think every bill should be its own without any dirty attachments.

What a shame you are John McCain!!! I hope you go back in that dark hole you are still in....You are a disgrace. And your running mate is even worse insinuating Obama is a terrorist! Don't you have anything else? Now Mccain will go out in dishonor....

Becky is right. Every bill has something attached to it that either side can point to and say, "See! They voted for XYZ..."

McCain wanted to find something to change what people were talking about this morning...well he did...and now I'm sure he's regreting ever opening his mouth.

This One is voting for "That One".

Becky...you are so right. Most bills go through with attachments on them. Many times Senators and Reps vote for one or more in the package. To down someone for a specific bill without knowing what the whole bill respresents is foolish. But this is how the McCain team operates.

Age, health questions continue for McCain

Sarah Palin was seen jumping off the podium when someone wearing a PRESS PASS was within 15 feet of her

McCain has been running a truly dishonorable campaign. I was heartened to see in this morning New York Time's editorial that they made it very clear that McCain Palins most recent rhetoric is dangerous."They have gone far beyond the usual fare of quotes taken out of context and distortions of an opponent’s record — into the dark territory of race-baiting and xenophobia. Senator Barack Obama has taken some cheap shots at Mr. McCain, but there is no comparison. "(quote)
When politicans go this low its time to call it as it is!! Hopefully you will do the same ...

GO JOE!!!!

Joe Biden lashed out at Sarah Palin on Wednesday, calling her recent rhetoric "ugly" and "mildly dangerous," and expressing shock that the Alaska Governor did not interrupt recent rallies when supporters shouted hateful attacks about Barack Obama, including "treason!" and "kill him!"

"I watched the news and I heard a couple people hollering from the audience semi-vile things about 'terrorists,' things like that," Biden said on NBC's Today show. "The idea that a leading American politician who might be vice president of the United States would not just stop mid-sentence and turn and condemn that -- it's just a slippery slope, it's a place that we shouldn't be going."

Sarah is not a pit bull wearing lipstick she is McCains "Junk yard Dog" what an embarrassment to all women.

Now I wish I had a THAT GIRL t-shirt (That Girl as in Marlo Thomas). I'd wear it proudly! The McCain camp is really getting desperate, what with Palin inciting hate and violence and apparently having no qualms about it at that! Not quite the christian lady she professes to be, ya think?
The debate last night was akin to the Nixon/JFK debate of the 60s. Nixon/McCain looked old,tired, angry and ill, whereas Obama/JFK were anything BUT. Game over.

Time:

This morning John McCain put out a list of 100 former ambassadors who are supporting his campaign. Number two is Lenore Annenberg, the wife of Ambassador William Annenberg, the founder of the Annenberg Institute of Reform, which funded the Annenberg Challenge, which once had two famous board members: former "domestic terrorist" William Ayers and Sen. Barack Obama.

So either we should all be outraged that John McCain is supported by a family who funded a foundation that hired a domestic terrorist,

Shame on you John, what's next you or Palin calling him a child molester?

Actually, I'm surprised McCain didn't say "Your Kind".

That One, yeah, the communist radical one.

Obama stresses his commonality with the American people. Do most people feel comfortable working closely with unrepentant domestic terrorists who still want to overthrow the capitalist system in America?

Obama presses educational issues as part of his campaign. He spent years working with Ayers on the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, which pushed efforts to create primary educational organizations that would create political activists for the Left - and which largely failed in any of its intended purposes.

Obama has lied and obfuscated about his relationship with Ayers. Clearly, Ayers was not just “some guy in the neighborhood”, but a political adviser at least on educational issues who provided a key launch for Obama’s political career.

I wonder how the rest of the world view
McCain. How on earth the person
fighting to be the President of USA, can lack showing dignity and respect!

Palin takes questions today from press, here is one of them:

Pressed on whether she was saying Obama was dishonest, Palin said no.

"But in terms of judgment, in terms of being able to answer a question forthrightly, it has two different parts to it, that judgment and that truthfulness," she said.

Palin said also claimed her husband, Todd, is "an open book" on the controversy back home involving allegations that the couple pressured state officials to fire the governor's former brother-in-law, a state trooper.

"Nobody has anything to hide," she said.
------
Oh ya, what about asking the "junk yard dog" about these:

Sarah Palin association's with the radical Alaska Independence Party that wants to secede from this great country, the United States of America.

And here is a quote from Alaskan Independence Party founder Joe Voegler:
“The fires of Hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government, and I won’t be buried under their damn flag!”

I wonder how Palin explains her husband''s verified membership in the "ALASKIAN INDEPENDENCE PARTY?" Seems she doesn''t believe in the UNITED States of America, does she??

"John McCain sat on the board of...the U.S. Council for World Freedom," said Begala, "The Anti-Defamation League, in 1981 when McCain was on the board, said this about this organization. It was affiliated with the World Anti-Communist League - the parent organization - which ADL said 'has increasingly become a gathering place, a forum, a point of contact for extremists, racists and anti-Semites.'"

But McCain's involvement in the U.S. Council for World Freedom, which extended from 1981 through, possibly, 1986 is significant -- not merely because it ties him to unsavory characters but because it firmly associates him with a foreign policy that was, at the time and still, controversial.

This was the guy that was just toting that "we cant have another holocaust on our hands" when talking about the threat of Iran attacking Israel... then come to find out... he is in cahoots with Nazi-backed death squads and Palin is tied to the Alaska Independence Party which tried to pursue sponsorship from the government of IRAN.... This is absolutely bat-***** insane. Obama tied to Ayers at age 8 is the least of my ***** worries... I could give a ***** less. But McCain and Palin? There are really still people who want to hand these nut-jobs the launch codes?

McCain showed disrespect for a fellow american by not calling him by his name. After what has happened to this country for the past 8 years he should be aplogizing for what his party has done, since he is the head of the party now, Instead of insulting a fellow american.

This one is voting for "That one"

It was a poor choice of words, but the bottom line is that McCain is losing because of the economy and his position on deregulation over the years.

Seventy percent of US Voters’ feeling distressed, depressed and terrified about United States Economy

A new SenseUs™ Poll reports how voters are feeling about the United States Economy

GAINESVILLE, FL — October 6, 2008 — The majority of voters, are afraid and sad about the current state of the US Economy, according to the SenseUsä Poll, which measures voters’ emotional reactions.

Since January 2008, feelings about the economy have changed. Democrats, Republicans and Independents are feeling more fearful deceived and sad. The uncertainly is making voters feel gloomy.

In SenseUs polls - taken in September, 2007, January, April and September 2008 - no group has been more distressed about the economy than the Independent Voters. They are almost unanimous in these feelings.

Over 80% of the Independents have ‘negative to angry’ feelings about the troubled economy. They have moved significantly, jumping from 58% in September 07, to 71% in April 08, to 81% at the end of September 08.

Proven Method for Measuring Emotions Without Leading Questions

The SenseUs™ poll employs the same AdSAM® methodology that is used by major FORTUNE 500 companies around the globe seeking to understand audiences’ emotions in order to make more relevant connections with them. Research has shown AdSAM® emotional response technology to be highly predictive of behavioral intentions.

“SenseUs™ uncovers voters’ feelings on the issues, 75%, feel ‘sad, angry and terrified about the United States Economy. This is much stronger than the ‘concerned about the economy’ as shown in other polls. Feelings are overlooked in other polls, which is unfortunate since emotions are the precursor to action,” said Jon Morris, PhD, president of AdSAM® and professor of at the University of Florida. “Candidates need to understand the emotional condition of voters and respond accordingly. For example, voters that feel stressed about an issue need to be addressed differently than those that feel weary.”

All the polling results can be found at www.SenseUs.net

SenseUS™ uses the AdSAM® (www.adsam.com) technique of emotional response and the Itracks (www.itracks.com) system for accurately gathering response. 260-563-8654

I think the McCain campaign has tried throughout this campaign to characterize Senator Obama as someone who is out of his league. It hasn't worked. The only folks that chant "the One" are the red meat Republicans. It's a distraction technique in a time when the nation is hungry for new ideas. Have you checked your 401k today? That's the issue that affects most Americans. The One, That One, is just a silly distraction that is funny to the Fox News set.

McCain really stunk up the joint last night. He came off as a crazy cranky old geezer. And the "that one" comment made him look like an old lady.

McCAIN = FAIL
