      I agree with you, we need another revolution. The first one got us out from under English tyranny. Now we need to take a look and see how we're gonna get out from under the next one. Do the words..."taxation without representation" ring any bells with anyone? Maybe we need to find another harbor somewhere and have another party....

      I've been thinking about a write in campaign for "NONE OF THE ABOVE". Hell, it worked for Richard Prior in Brewsters Millions, why not now?

      Does it not bother anyone but me that before coming to the US Senate, Obama had never held a public office outside of his neighborhood? His opponent's VP choice has had more experience than he has, but hey, she's just "a soccer mom". Huh, what could she possibly know about politics? not enough to get her name in the top spot apparently. But, this is a senators race, and she never has been a senator, that disqualifies her automatically.

      Considering all that, looks like Nader may get the nod on this one.

      Don't worry about things you have no control over. Worry is a lack of Faith!

          I understand your confusion, Tom. The lack of reaction I referred to was from this board. Not surprising, though.

          The mainstream liberal press has focused more on Palin's clothing budget that Biden's dangerous and irresponsible statements. They have the nads to call into question Palin's "experience" while completely ignoring that Obama is nothing more than an empty suit with oratory skills. Period. I am sick and tired of the press. They are a dangerous lot.

          You can't be as steamed as I am.

            LOL, the McCain bunch keep falling over themselves.

                LOL, grabbing straws again.

                Obama's neighborhood has more citizens than The entire Wassila.

                    Another example of using parts of a dialogue to strike fear and appeal to the timid voters.

                    The McCain campaign is sinking fast, this type of rhetoric has plagued them from the start, yet they continue, but in fairness they really do not have anything else. They have no solutions, no winning points just negativity. Republicans are notorious for playing the person and not the issues, they try win by campaigning that their opponent is worse than them and not why they deserve the nod.
                    Like the guy everyone knows in the office that seeks promotion by discrediting his competition and not by hard and dilligent work.

                            The difference between the two is simple, one says something (McCain) and the other has something to say (Obama)

                              It's every bit as relevant as the media's claptrapping over Palin's experience. In fact, it's MORE relevant since he's running for president.

                                Need I explain this any further? I'm not feeling like running in rhetorical circles right now.

                                  Ah ha, the key word being before. I overlooked that. EDIT: However, the fact remains that the "experience" thing is not being equally applied here.

                                    Four more reasons NOT to vote for Obama:

                                    Senator Obama's Four Tax Increases for People Earning Under $250K

                                    And, another:

                                    Throw Out the Constitution for Reparative Economics (eg, Reparations by Redistribution)

                                      Obviously the person who put together the second video wasn't able to follow the discussion and/or twisted the words intentionally.

                                        Dear David,

                                        So, you decide which way to vote on how much money you get to keep! Whatever happened to the Kennedy ideal, " Ask not what your country can do for you....". But then, what can one expect from a country that voted Bush in TWICE!!

                                        Sorry, but as a non-American I get nightmares when I think of a McCain/Palin administration. Is money all that matters to you, or do you really believe that McCain/Palin are the best candidates?

                                        Kind regards,
                                        Bob
