In the next few days there will be a report that Obama may have funneled some of America's tax payer money to sponsor terrorism in his father's native country.

Now I'm not sure how this  will affect this election , but surely with the knowledge that is out there about his ring of friends and band of political thieves this country's undecided voters will lean to wards Uncle John and Aunt Sarah


Think of it this way , if something happens to

Obama                           McCain

Biden                              Palin

_____________________________________________________________________

Pelosi                              Pelosi  do you really want her running this country ?

_______________________________________________________________________

Obama needs to reveal all his supporters , all of his tax records for the past 20 years.

I'm sorry, but I'm not running for office. Personally, I wouldn't vote for Elmer Fudd. I think we need a change.

Ah, CC...I said best qualified, not best candidate.  Big difference, and I'll admit that when we've elected the best qualified, it hasn't always worked out well, either.

I like some of Paul's ideas, but not all. We could do far worse than him as President, however...at least for a few years.

I don't know who you are referring to when you say "we" but I would not agree with Richardson being the best candidate in any form. Ron Paul had and has the most reasonable approach to the majority of the problems facing this country including the war and illegal aliens. As far as the Dems are concerned Mrs. Clinton would have been a far superior choice to B.O. both in leadership and experience. It's very unfortunate for this country that we will wake up Nov. 5th with McBush or B.O. as the President elect after suffering through 8 years of King George and his reign of terror. The Republicans have no one but George and Dickey to blame if B.O. unfortunately is our next POTUS.

First, I agree that there are candidates I would much rather have. I think we both agree that Richardson was probably the best qualified person on either ticket.

However, this is what we are left with, and realize that we don't vote on one particular thing, and you tend to emphasize those areas where your particular candidate is strong.   Obama won the primary by getting people to vote for him, just as McCain did. Conservatives don't like the process, and it will be interesting to see what happens to the Republican party over the next 4 years...especially if the economy improves (as I think it will, regardless of who gets elected) and the Dems build on their lead the next time around. 

I think the American people vote for some combination of vision,  leadership, appearance, experience, character, AND the satisfaction/dissatisfaction with the status quo (call it change, hope, whatever you want to call it). I'll admit that McCain has a big edge on experience, and I'll even give you the edge on leadership based on his long time Senate AND military career. 

However, I don't buy the character attacks, and never have. You can, and you are free to do so, but recognize that many Americans simply tune out at this time when they hear McCain's campaign try these tactics. It looks desperate, and the people sense that.

I think most would say, however, that Obama is the clearest change from the Bush administration that we have, and I think the Palin pick IS beginning to remind people of Bush more so than the change mantra. I would also say that Obama gets a small edge on vision, because it does point in a different direction than we've had under Bush.

So why don't we look at not only his associations, but his votes in regard to the current state of the economy..........

Face it Fred, the others are correct the current and past associations of yours and ours really matter nothing as none of us are running for POTUS. 

I have always been outspoken in my opposition to McCain/Feingold, but McCain's push on that type of reform stemmed from the Keating 5 situation, so at least he made an effort at reform.  McCain also called for more oversight on Fannie and Freddie, yes prior to Obama being in the Senate, but among those who thwarted McCain's efforts are supporters of Obama, including Barney Frank whose "spouse" (Frnk's terminology, not mine) was head of one of them at the time.

Compared to his associations, friendshipos, supporters, and mentors, anything in your past or mine, or probably anyone on this forum would not raise as many red flags as should have been raised a year ago about Obama.   

This man should not be where he is.  Clinton, Richarson, or even Biden, should be where Obama is right now.

I  respectfully  disagree  with  you  Fred,  for  reasons  already  stated  below.  And  NO,   I  don't  have  associations  like  that.  I.E:  Radical,  left  wing,  bomber,  terrorist,  socialist  liberation  church  teachings,  corrupt  chicago  politics,  organizations  indicted,  convicted  and  raided  for  charges  pertaining  to  voter  fraud,  etc,  etc,  etc..........

Fred-  while  these  various  associations  may  serve  to  make  you  an  interesting  and  complex  character-  we  are  the  sum  of  our  parts,  afterall-  unless  you  decide  to  run  for  public  office  they  will  be  neither  the  source  of  scrutiny  nor  investigation.

My point is that I am a relatively average person, and if most of us thought about it, we probably have similiar associations, especially the older we get.

I also think the voters don't think of this as much of a concern as things such as the economy.

I am a few years younger than Obama, and I can tell you that my associations include quite a list of characters, including bankruptcies, small time criminals, and even a few I served with who spent time in the Federal Pen.  Now, I've also got more than a few "good guys" I've worked with along the time, but if someone wanted to smear me because a very good friend of mine 15 years ago got caught up in defrauding the government (heck, I went to school with him, worked with him, even worked out with him) I guess I would be a very easy target.

yessssssss.........I,  too,  am  Obama's  age  &  I  had  to  laugh  when  he  was  interviewed  by  Bill  O'Reilly.  When  specifically  asked  about  his  "associations",  Obama  said-  "Oh,  I  have  lots  of  freinds,  don't  you?"  To  which  O'Reilly  bluntly  replied-   "Not  like  that.  No  I  don't."  The  economy  being  the  central  issue  with  the  military  a  close  number  two  (in  my  mind)  YES  I  do  care  about  judgement  and  character,  how  an  individual  deals  with  crisis  and  conflict  AND  WHO  they  will  turn  to  for  wisdom  and  WHAT  those  individuals'  basis  for  experience  (since  Barak  himself  has  little)  is.

A vat of boiling oil is more like it :)

I will make no comment on possible wrong doing by Obama, but his associations and friendships definitely should give one pause about the man's judgement.   I'm only a year older than he is, yet I knew exactly who and what William Ayers was when I was 8, and I definitely knew his history by the time I was 30.

Is this the best "dirt" to be had on John McCain?......Charles Keating may be a crook, but he's definitly not a  terrorist (unrepentant or otherwise) neither have I heard anyone  making any claims that he is a communist facilitator of any sort. If this is all we've got-  a more than 20 year old scandal, than let's prosecute the other guy who was cleared-   John Glenn, supporter of Barak Obama........

Maybe you should try jumping into a tub of cold water. It might wake you up.

No, he is not a Muslim and I haven't seen anybody here saying he was or is.  His connections and associations being called into question are very legit.  All you guys can come up with is the keating 5 where McCain was cleared of it.  Even the prosecutor said he shouldn't have even been in the indictment.

Unlike Obama, McCain did not vote against protections for babies that were actually born alive following an abortion.

I'm pro-choice and always have been, but Obama's repeated voted against the Born Alive legislation absolutely disgusts me.

I still don't understand why anyone would vote for this guy. Put all the Ayers and Rezco and Wright and all those other questionable associations he has with all those questionable people aside, and look at the facts:

1. He is NOT going to lower middle class taxes. He just signed on to a $700 Billion bail out package (as I realize McCain did, but I don't think anyone had a choice. So I'm not blaming Barack for that, just stating a fact for my point). There's no money left to give tax breaks. You people have to understand, that unless he wants to borrow more money from China (which he also says he'll put an end to), there's no money left for tax breaks. Thats a fact. It doesn't grow on trees. You have to take from one place to give it to another and right now, there's nothing left to shuffle around.

2. He is NOT going to give health care to everyone in the US. Again, $700 Billion bail out. No money left for programs like that.

3. He hasn't even finished his FIRST TERM as Senator. He has NO economic experience - never introduced or co-sponsored any economic legislation. He has no foreign affair experience. This is not the time for "on the job training". I know you lefties hate to think about it, but Sarah Palin has WAY more pertinant experience, having been govenor of Alaska, than Barack Obama has from being a one-term senator.

4. He is #3 - REPEAT #3 - on the list of taking campaign contributions from Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac. More money than others that have been in politics for DECADES. You'll recall that those institutions, along with the help of Barney "Rubble" Frank, Chris "DoDoBird" Dodd, and Chris Cox, are the reason for the financial meltdown of the economy.

This state is going to go for McCain, so your vote doesn't really matter anyway. I just want all of you who are thinking of voting for this charlatan Obama to look yourself in the mirror, and ask yourself if you can really sleep well at night knowing that you are going to cast a vote for this guy. Because if he does win, he's going to raise YOUR taxes in time of economic depression and it'll send this country over the brink. History has shown, in times like these, the democrat strategy DOES NOT WORK, and the republican strategy does. I'm just looking out for your well being. You need to have a clear conscience, as I will, if Obama gets elected and this country becomes economically decimated because of his policies.

I really hope that McCain comes out in the next few days, flanked by Mitt Romney (whom I supported in the primaries) and Rudy Guliani, and tells the American people, "these are the guys I'm sending after those who STOLE YOUR MONEY. Guliani will find all those who had to do with the disaster (Frank, Dodd, Cox to name a few), and hold them accountable and punish them appropriately. Romney would come up with a plan to revive the economy in a sensible manner and get us back on the right track so we can compete with China, instead of living in fear of being absorbed by them because we can't repay our debt. If that happens, McCain wins in a landslide.

Nancy Pelosi announced the other day that she intends to convene a special session of the house after the election to introduce a bill to add an ADDITIONAL $150 billion dollars into the bailout program. Her intention is to give another tax rebate stimulus check to lower income families. This is not only an irresponsible use of funds, but an unconscionable act as well. This is not free money and has to come from somewhere, which means that my children and my children's children will have to pay for this. I believe the only reason Pelosi has announced this now, before the elections, is because she thinks it will give an edge to the dems running for office or for re-election. Nancy Pelosi and people like her need to go. They are not democrats in the true sense of the word, just a group of socialists with communists leanings, who want government to interfere in every aspect of our lives. Whether its housing or government sponsored welfare, food programs and even medical care, this amounts to communism and our forefathers never intended for the government to be this involved in the day to day lives of our country's citizens. This is disgraceful.
Have at it.

Obama's goal is to become President as is McCain's. The question is why. The issue for us is what candidate has the most reasonable plan for what is happening and how to deal with it.
Obama's goal is to institute a complete socialist state.  His past history and associations with communists and radicals prove it.

What exactly have you done for your country? You have clearly demonstrated your lack of understanding when it comes to politics. McBush has stepped on our civil rights at every turn and shown complete contempt for our Constitution and our laws, yet I do not hear you complaining about totalitarianism.

you  are  absolutely  correct  about  this.  I  find  it  a  disgrace  that  objectivity  in  journalism  seems  to  be  a  virtue  lost  and  few  even  notice.  What  people  really  want  is  not  the  truth,  but-   the  truth  as  they  see  or  wish  to  believe  it.

I don't mind her cute sayings until she dials it up to 11.  One Gosh darn it or similar phrase per sentence.  Check out her public speaking BEFORE she was running for VP and you don't see her being so colloquialistic (if that is a word).  She dials it up for the audience...which, if they respond to and send money, is great for the campaign.

You really shouldn't use these forums to throw that sort of a fright into people.   We have enough to be truly afraid of without adding a Palin into the mixture.

    Your doggone right by golly.

America will not elect an angry old man president . Did his campaign coach him that way or is he really so full of anger that he can not contain it ? McCain can not win , but if he stepped aside for some reason , the republicans would have a better chance with Palin .

Just like the Republicans didn't have enough of a majority in the prior 6 years.    So how is this a Republican thing?

The Republicans didn't need a veto proof majority. They had Bush.

Something about the twin towers and a war got in the way.  How soon lip stick laced parrots forget.
