to be honest, I liked a lot of his answers -
I do not want all the illegals here - they should be sent home, but if it is going to be as expensive as they say, then the plan Obama put forth of fining them for being here illegally and making them then go back to the process of trying to be come legal is a good one. They are not going to send them home whoever is President, so why not fine them? His plan is as good as any I have seen. When he is talking about helping, my thoughts are that he is talking about the legal immigrants.
Obama bashing versus Palin bashing... sm
Obama will be in the forefront for the next 4 years, assuming the electoral college pans out the way the popular vote did and providing his BC holds up in court.

Palin, on the other hand, has gone back to the frozen tundra. Whether she resurfaces in 2012 remains to be seen, but can't we just wait until then to start in on her?
Was bashing her, was bashing his choice of
her. I said she was not the MOST qualified. Did not say she wasn't qualified. I said he picked because she would help with the base. That's actually a compliment.

Rather than attacking, try to understand the content.

I can't answer for the president, because I cannot read his mind.  I don't know what he would do if these two came to him.


BTW, Billy Graham's grandson (Franklin Graham's son) is serving in Iraq right now, and the ministry as a whole is doing a program called "Operation Bless Our Troops" 


...and to answer your second question (which I think I did in the first post, but anyway) for personal reasons I'm not going to Iraq to rebuild.

my answers
What do you personally do to help in your community? - Volunteer in school, church.

What do faith do you have? - Christian

Do you have a mortage and what is the status? Been able to make payments on time, behind, lost your home? Yes, have been behind in the past, but am caught up now.

Do you have health insurance? If not, why? We don't but our children do, thanks to Child Health Plus. We just cannot afford it. We are small business owners. I am probably going back to teaching so I can get insurance for us.

Do you have young children?

Were you for the bailout? Heck no.

Do you have money invested in stocks? Have you/are you going to cash it in? 401K in Mutual funds, letting it ride for now.

Think we should bring our troops back? Heck yeah.

Now, who do you think you will vote for? Obama/Biden
My answers
What do you personally do to help in your community?

-I work with the youth group at our church and as a church we do community outreach such as having dinners for families, community cleanup day, etc. Our church is in one of the poorest parts of town and the kids there are socially and financially disadvantaged, which I think is why my heart goes out to them so much, I grew up the same way. Other than that I sit at my computer all day and work and stay out of the community like a hermit! :)

What do faith do you have?

-I believe Jesus is the only way to Heaven and he died for our sins and rose again. I believe that no amount of good works can get you in.

Do you have a mortage and what is the status? Been able to make payments on time, behind, lost your home?

-Yes, we have a fixed rate mortgage. So far we can make payments fine, although we have had to sacrifice things in order to make those payments before such as new tires, cable tv, etc., but for the most part we do okay now by being "frugal" lol.


Do you have health insurance? If not, why?

-No. We can't afford it. Neither of us is offered insurance through our company (well until recently, my company is considering offering it.) Our last estimated cost would be $350 a month for decent coverage.

Do you have young children?
- nope, we are waiting until we have a decent savings and health insurance.

Were you for the bailout?
- nope. I think they could have been a lot smarter about that. It really makes me sick that they were having spa treatments the other day. I sure wish I could go to a friggin spa on bailout money!

Do you have money invested in stocks? Have you/are you going to cash it in?
-nope. I had thought about it awhile back but now I'm glad we didn't!

Think we should bring our troops back?
- I would like for them to come back, but I think we need to be smart about it. If we pull out tomorrow we need to look at the repercussions of doing so. But I think it's time to start to tie up our loose ends and come home, focus on things here for awhile.

Now, who do you think you will vote for?
-If I knew that writing in someone would make a difference, but because it won't, I'll be voting for Mccain, because I don't agree with Obama. I don't necessarily think things will be better with Mccain, but Obama and I disagree on issues, therefore I won't vote for him. Simple as that.
my answers

What do you personally do to help in your community?  Lions Club, PTO, close-knit community so we personally help each other when something bad happens.


What do faith do you have? Christian


Do you have a mortage and what is the status?  Been able to make payments on time, behind, lost your home?  Building a new house, so just starting a mortgage.  Never had a problem with our mortgage before, but now who knows.  We were really hoping to lock into a good rate when our house was finished, but that may not happen now.



Do you have health insurance?  If not, why?  Yes, my husband works for the commonwealth and we are very fortunate to have excellent health insurance now.  However, prior to that job, we always carried health insurance, either an individual policy on our own or a group employee policy.  I even worked part-time in-office just to get benefits at one time.



Do you have young children?  Yes -- 11, 8, and 6.



Were you for the bailout? Absolutely not.  The suits should have paid it.



Do you have money invested in stocks?  Have you/are you going to cash it in?  We have some invested in stock -- McDonald's actually, it's not much so we're better off to ride it out.  I assume my husband's 401K with the state is also invested, but don't know much about that.  I'm more concerned about the 30K I just put in a money market with bank. 



Think we should bring our troops back?  Absolutely.



Now, who do you think you will vote for? Obama/Biden -- McCain hasn't proven to me that he will run things differently than Bush.


my answers

What do you personally do to help in your community?   No clubs or organizations.  I work too many hours.  I put my extra time and energy into raising decent human beings.



What do faith do you have?  Christian - pentecostal to be more specific.  I understand Sarah Palin and her faith. 



Do you have a mortage and what is the status?  Been able to make payments on time, behind, lost your home?  Yes.  We are current.  It's tough though. 



Do you have health insurance?  If not, why?  Yes.  Husband works for hospital.  It is very expensive.  Any catastrophe would still do us in financially though, at 80/20.



Do you have young children?  Kids are 12-1/2, 15 and 17.



Were you for the bailout?  No.



Do you have money invested in stocks?  Have you/are you going to cash it in?  We have never had extra money to invest in the entire 20+ years of our marriage.  We have never had financial help from anybody, even our parents, and no one taught us as children the importance of saving. 


 


Think we should bring our troops back?  Eventually.  I think they are a force for good in the region and they are doing important work.  War is sometimes necessary. 



Now, who do you think you will vote for?  McCain/Palin.  If Obama is elected, I'll get to keep even less of my money and I don't have enough as it is.  Also, I could never and will never vote for a party that does not protect the rights of the unborn.

What do you personally do to help in your community?

Volunteer with a pro life group who provide help and support system to women/girls referred to us who have chosen life vs abortion. We have a network of support who also help after the babies are born with child care so the mothers can work and get established on their own. We help with job placement and finding work. It is very rewarding work. More often than not, those mothers become our next volunteers. When we have our get-togethers, to see those children laughing and playing...happy and healthy...makes it all so worth it. If we can help just one...all worth it.

What do faith do you have?
Christian.

Do you have a mortage and what is the status? Been able to make payments on time, behind, lost your home?

Have a mortgage, payments not behind. Have not lost a home.


Do you have health insurance? If not, why?

Yes. With employer.

Do you have young children?

No.

Were you for the bailout?

I believe the economy needed help of some kind. I am not convinced what was passed was the way to go.

Do you have money invested in stocks? Have you/are you going to cash it in?

No money in stocks. After the market problem after 9-11, put in CDs.

Think we should bring our troops back?

From Iraq...as soon as the commanders on the ground believe it is the right time. Whether or not we should have ever have gone doesn't matter, we are there now. I don't want to see what happened in Viet Nam after a precipitous withdrawal happen in Iraq. Millions of innocent Vietnamese were slaughtered. We need to finish there. But leaving Iraq will not solve the "war" problem. Both candidates say we have to stay in Afghanistan, both calling for more troops in Afghanistan. I think Obama said 3 brigades to start. So there is going to be a war..just a matter of where.

Now, who do you think you will vote for?

I know I am voting for John McCain. Too many fundamental differences between Obama's vision for the country and mine. Also too many fundamental moral differences.

answers
1. Work 7 days a week so I have no time.

2. I believe in a higher power.

3. Yes, not behind, no problems yet but I'm sure when either candidate gets into office I will.

4. Yes but will probably not be able to afford it or it will be taken away once either candidate gets in.

5. No - I refuse to bring kids in this world the way it is. Also, it seems I take care of all the kids of women who do not believe in abortion yet they are the first ones to turn their heads or complain when they are taxed to death to take care of these kids who will not doubt grow up unwanted, abused, etc.

6. No but something had to be done.

7. Yes - going to ride it out but probably should take it out.

8. Yes.

9. Not voting this year.
my answers
What do you personally do to help in your community?

Used to do more but now working two jobs; I only occasionally help with church and my children's school.



What do faith do you have?

Christian


Do you have a mortage and what is the status? Been able to make payments on time, behind, lost your home?

Have a mortgage, not missed a payment. Thank God we have jobs.

Mutual funds and some other stocks. Think we will sell the mutual funds.



Think we should bring our troops back?

It would be nice but I'm not over there and can't make a judgment call on that one.


Now, who do you think you will vote for?

I'm not thrilled with McCain but I do think he would do a better job than Obama. As eloquently as he speaks, I don't believe much of what comes out of his mouth.
My answers
Who wants to abolish the Federal Reserve? Probably a good idea



Who wants smaller government? I do

No more taxes? Would be nice, but have to have some system in place to run schools, hospitals, keep infrastructure up to date, etc.

No government interference in our lives? Yes!!!



Who is for abolishing the IRS? I most definitely am!



Who believes that government should only be in place to run our military for OUR safety? I do



Who wants government out of our public schools? I do



new q's, new answers
Post war, McCain went back to Vietnam to help improve and restore relations with that country as well as try to find the MIAs. I think his war/pow experience will make him more sensitive to the whole spectrum of war, and help him to make sound and careful decisions regarding that part of the world, with more understanding of all ramifications of same (as well as any other part of the world).

I think Obama would possibly favor Kenya or any country, given the opportunity, that has a majority of black and/or muslim people -- and i think that not because of his color, but because of his longstanding ties to the "social gospel" black separatist type church and his other radical associations. However, i am more concerned with his favored treatment of hugo chavez and other dangerous heads of state.
Answers
1. Heck yes we'd be screaming and shouting and wanting to see McCain's (or anyone elses) bc if there was any question as to him not being born in the US. However, McCain was born on a military installation in the canal zone where his mother and father (who was in the Navy) were stationed. Just like the babies that are born in Germany at the military bases. They are considered "natural born". Had McCain (or anyone else) been born in say Sweden or Norway or any other country, or even in a German Hospital, no he would not be qualified. P.S. - I did not want McCain for president either just in case you think I was supporting him. I didn't.

2. This post was not about Bush's complete lack of regard and respect for the Constitution. That would be a different post to talk about that. But I am not a Bush fan. Didn't vote for him, didn't want him for President. But he did not violate the constitution when he was running for present. As for his violations - in a different post we can talk about them one by one. More than happy to do that and I'm sure we will agree about a lot of things with that subject.

The whole issue about Obama refusing to produce his original bc is not ridiculous. The only people who are calling it ridiculous are the ones who do not care if the contitution is violated - just as long as they get him in. If it was ridiculous the Supreme Court would not be taking on the case. There are at least 10 other cases (not including the case with Alan Keyes). If this was so ridiculous as only the liberals are trying to portray it, it would have been thrown out and there would be no cases. But it is not ridiculous, it is not thrown out and this needs to be resolved before the electoral college votes. Guarantee you this - if there is question they will not just vote for him. They want to know as much as the rest of us do. You think that violating the Constitution is ridiculous? There are lawyers and judges and democrats who want to get to the bottom of the truth and find out why Obama is not submitting the required paperwork and why he has this information sealed?

As the guy in the video says....just show the dog gone birth certificate. The more he tries to conceal it the more suspicious this is.

If the certificate is authentic and an INDEPENDENT team verifies that. Indpendent meaning not conservative and certainly not democrat then that would put to rest all the questions, and the rest of the country could move on and at least we know he would be legite and we would stand by him.

The more the liberals/democrats try to hide this and lie about it the more ridiculous they look.

SHOW THE DOG GONE BIRTH CERTIFICATE and be done with it.

And if it is proved he is inelligible you still have a democrat as president.
Here are answers
US Citizenship is not required, but legal residency is. I found that on Wikipedia. However, another site I found says a US Citizen for at least 9 years. What question comes into play here is, was his non-US residence covered up before he even became a Senator? That is what one of the law suits is about. I think what they are trying to find out is when Obama moved back to Hawaii to live with his grandparents, they evidently did not get him the proper paperwork and he did not file paperwork to become a US Citizen. He was supposed to do that because he was never a US Citizen to begin with. But I believe what has happened was that his grandparents enrolled him in school using their address, so of course no questions would have been answered. Then he just carried that lie throughout his life. What I'd like to know is what is on his school records. Did he receive funding as a foreigner to attend college.

Here are a couple links I found. The first one explains about security clearances. Having been in the military myself and working in that area this article is very credible. So here are just a few links, but there are many more (unless some deems Google not a credible source to get information from).

What former post? I thought I was replying to the original post where you said you hope Cheney will be prosecuted for Abu Ghraib.

My thought was that if your going to go down the road of prosecuting prior presidents/VP for things they did then you better take Clinton with you for all the stuff he did.

So how "near past" are you referring to? Only if it's a past Republican president. The fact is you will ignore the wrong the democrats do when in the office but your ready to lynch a republican.

I was in the military myself. The Geneva Convention does not cover terrorists, which is what those prisoners are.

Can I be honest here? sm

I keep hearing here and there that O will be assassinated, won't live out his term, etc. That grieves me. I am a registered Republican, live in the south, in a small, rural town FULL of white, racist people. I don't know who they voted for, but I honestly don't think that "white" America is ready for a black president. There are too many racist people (I know tons of them) who refer to O as the N word (yes, you heard me right) and this is in small, rural America. I truly believe he probably won't last.


It wasn't that long ago that Rosa Parks sat on that bus and it wasn't that long ago when those precious girls from that black Montgomery church were blown up (during church) and remember Jenna 6 and all of the white people who stood up for the boys.


It's hateful and sickening, yes, but America is still prejudiced as sad as it is to say that. Too many white hate groups. I am in my mid 30s and when I was in college there were very large sects of "skinheads." They are everywhere. They are very prideful. They hate blacks. I am half Hispanic and my family doesn't look white. I've been the subject of racism in the past. People are awful.


Whether you believe in God or not as a liberal, pray for O's safety because I think he is going to need it.


I have to be honest, DW....
when we were debating it I honestly did not realize that some states already provided coverage for all kids no matter what the income level, which seemed to be the sticking point for most of the debaters. The fact that MA and PA could do it, even on the unexpanded program, leads me to believe other states could do it too, if their priorities were in place. Washington is such a goofy place, really...if the Democrats had prefaced it differently and had not used the implicit words to extend it "higher up the income ladder" and just stated they wanted to dole more out to the states so it would be easier for them to insure all the state's kids...I don't think there would have been such an issue. They purposely sent a bill they knew Bush would veto, which is a ridiculous exercise...I think it was purely political election time posturing and misleading to both Democrat and Republican voters. It did what it was intended to do, and that is make a headline that Bush did not want to insure kids, when that is not at all a true statement. That being said...PA and MA DO show that it is possible under current funding, and I am entirely FOR putting it at the discretion of the states how to use the money for their CHIP programs without the interference of the feds other than funding. Now if the states want to impose some kind of taxes to support it, like a penny sales tax or something, to supplement the program in order to do so, I am all in favor of that, if they tailor it to the needs of their state...and who knows better than the state government what that would take? They know their populations, they know their income levels...and they can come up with a better plan. I am 100% on board for that!! It would be interesting to know how MA and PA funded those programs at the current level...because they did. PA's has been around for quite awhile. :-)
Just being honest...
Certainly this poster is entitled to his/her point of view, even if he/she is completely intolerant of anyone else's point of view. The poster speaks of an open mind, yet has a very closed mind himself/herself.

For all the talk that liberals make about freedoms, apparently that only extends to those who agree with them. Sounds more like a fascist state than America.

Condescencion, intolerance...are these the hallmarks of liberalism?
come on, be honest

you laughed at the mental image that statement conjured up also.


 


Look....if you are going to be honest about this...
just read up on it from start to finish. It was not a big deal, the same guy who is screaming for her head now was saying the governor's office is fully cooperating and subpoenas will not be necessary...and she was, and that was the truth. Now that the Obama lawyers descended it is a whole new ballgame, has been politicized when it should not have been. It should be stopped, it has become a 3-ring circus. THere are pictures now of the two Dems yelling the loudest with Obama yucking it up at a support rally. The investigation is tainted now. The investigator they hired is personal friends with the guy who was fired. Come on now....hatchet job. They need to put in the hands of someone truly independent, don't you think that is fair? Or no?
to be honest...
I'm just going to be honest with you - there is not a whole lot of incentive for those that are on the welfare rolls to get off. Unless you are educated anymore then those low paying minimum wage jobs do not pay what has to be paid for someone to live - even at 2 and 3 jobs.

And most people cannot afford to go to college - even if they have the aptitude for it. Not everybody in this world is cut out for school. It is not just because they are dumb. I have a son who is above average smart, but just cannot handle school - does that make him dumb? No, it means he is going to have to work his butt off though to even barely get by.

And yes, I do think that the richer people of this world should pay more taxes. I don't necessarily know about a higher percentage, but I know that the darn loop holes that exist that keep them from paying as much as I do should be done away with...

I don't want anybody to give me anything, I am doing it all by myself however I have to, and I am luckier than most that I can make a good living, but I can see that some people need help to survive now.

It is not like it used to be - prices have gone up, up, and up, but wages are staying the same and ya'll all know that. You talk about how you did this, or you did that to get by, and you know what, I did too 20 years ago, but 20 years ago I was not paying $5.00 a gallon for milk and $2.69 for a loaf of bread and making $7.50 or $8.00 an hour. I was not paying $3-4 a gallon for gasoline to get to my $7.50 or $8.00 an hour job. I was not paying $600 a month for a 1 bedroom apartment that legally I was not supposed to have my children living in together...

I feel sorry for the young people today that are starting out on their own and I feel sorry for the people that ya'll are all calling stupid and lazy and worthless just because they are not up to your standards. I am so glad that I am not that judgmental of people that I cannot see that people right now need help... and it is getting worse right in front of our eyes.

I sincerely hope that not a one of you who are so down on people that need help in putting their lives together find yourselves in the position of needing help in the future.
He was not honest.

Obama is a socialist.  His record and ideals are proof enough of that.  All of you lemmings are convinced he handled himself well and are crying out about how unfair he was treated in that interview.....yet if this were Palin....you would be crying how dumb she is and didn't handle things well.  Talk about double standards.  You people sicken me.  I'm so tired of this crap.  I will be glad when this election is over and McCain kicks Obama's @ss.  I'm so sick and tired of hearing about Change......that is ALL you people friggin hear!.


Well.....you better be prepared because God help us if Obama wins.....that is all we will have left in our banks accounts......some change.  Get a clue!


Actually no....not get better ones...just be HONEST...
about the ones he HAS. That would be a terrific start. The truth is always a good place to start.
Sam, to be honest, I don't think about it much at all either -
I do not think about abortion because in my life it was/is not an option. That being said, I think it is something that people should have the right to choose if they want to.

Why do you think government should get to meddle in one part of a woman's life and not be able to meddle in every part of a person's life? That is the underlying question here...

I just wish they ALL could be honest
without worrying about offending SOMEONE. It's ridiculous.
To be quite honest
even though I am against gay marriage due to my faith, I understand the fact that not everyone goes by the rules of God. Although it is unfortunate given the eternal consequences.

However, I feel that opening the door for gay marriage does in the end open the door for ANY marriage. The argument will still be "if traditional marriage and gay marriage are okay, why not polygamy?" I think that is the next step in the progression. Maybe I am wrong, we will just have to wait and see I guess.

Answers to messages below
I watched the film again. Yup, still am disgusted. I looked for those "subliminal" messages. Even backed it up and went through it clip by clip. Nope, nothing "subliminal". The film is telling you about Obama, Ayers, Weatermen, Acorn, etc. The films clips are of actual footage of the outcome from the horrendous crimes. While Obama will quickly dismiss these associatios as "coincidence" or "he just happened to be a person in my neighborhood" he is not being truthful. Read the history. He has had long-term associations with them and still does (maybe he stopped while campaigning, but no doubt he will pick back up once the election is over) - and if he happens to be elected? Well nothing subliminal there. You know what will happen. If you're in agreement with what Ayers did, what Acorn does, etc, then I'm sure you think it is fine, and if some people don't love America like a lot of us do then I can see why they would think this is the greatest man since the invention of sliced bread. But a lot of us do love America. A lot of us do want America to be free. A lot of us do want to own our own business and invest in America and not have our money "stolen" from us by government that we worked 60 or more hours a week for to make ends meet and now have to work more hours cos the people who aren't working but could are receiving their welfare check (i.e., my money that I had to put in an extra 20 hours a week of work to get it).

If you don't like the film fine. That is your opinion. But plenty of us want to know who Obama really is. Who are his ties? Who are his allegiences? And more importantly - why did they choose him? He didn't pick them, they sought him out. Who got him elevated to where he is at so fast? Who made it possible for him (without experience) to rise past Richardson (a governor with more experience), Biden (over 30 years experience), Edwards (over 10 years experience), Kucinich (close to 40 years experience), and others. And even Hillary (8 years experience and 8 years as first lady (16 if you think being a first lady is experience - I don't but its still more than Obama has).
Who is this Obama guy who so quickly was placed into the position when now (even though I voted for Obama over Hillary) we are finding out that Hillary actually did win. Has to make you wonder who put him where he is (hint - it is not the American citizens - not conspiracy - FACT). There are too many unanswered questions. It has nothing to do with propaganda - it has everything to do with learning who and what Obama is.

To the other poster who thinks poor Obama gets slammed 24/7. Looks like somebody googled a dictionary to find a whole bunch of words. Funny how it's okay to slam McCain/Palin 24/7. As would be described by others "we're just trying to get out the word about them". I'm not slamming any posters on the board. I simply am posting a link about a candidate that I feel very strongly is one of the worst choices for a candidate in history. I'm trying to get people to open their eyes and learn more about them. If you don't want to believe this fine. Google Obama put in everything you can. Even use other search engines like Dogpile and others, but for Petes sake, don't go by what's on Obama's website, or stop the smear or any of those other propaganda websites that pull the "poor Obama, everyone is picking on him, he's so innocent, don't beleive them, call them racists, etc, etc." That is propaganda. And if your going to be getting any "subliminal messages" it will be there. When you have 2 candidates you cannot honestly believe any of their info they put out. Candidates lie to get your vote. That's the ways it's always been done. The only thing the conservatives ask is that people educate themselves about each candidate (both of them). Who are they. Who did they associate with. How did they get where they are at. Who is financing them. What organizations did they belong to and what was the purpose of those organizations. Did they attend secret meetings and if so where and with whom and what is the purpose of those secret organizations. What have they done in their careers. What are there voting records like (i.e. if someone (any candidate past, present, or future) votes for the past 2, 3, 4 or more years to raise taxes but now all of a sudden during the campaign has changed their tune and they are promising you they won't raise your taxes or they'll lower your taxes) has to make you think. Also, and most important to me - Is the person we elect going to uphold the constitution or going to change it because it doesn't align itself with their ways of thinking. In knowing everything I know and in other people's feeling Obama is not. Obama associates with people who say "God D@m American" and people who say "American makes me want to throw up".

I posted the video link because it is one of many films (we won't even go into Obama's ties with Kenya) that is trying to put out the truth about Obama. He used video clips of CNN reporters asking questions and everyone KNOWS that CNN is one of the most liberal (MSNBC is the most liberal - CNN is 2nd) TV stations. Do you disagree with what Hillary Clinton was saying? Do you think anyone wanting to know the truth about Obama's affiliation with Ayers should be just shut up?

So until this election is over I will continue to try to get the word out about Obama life (the one he is hiding from Americans and covering up by instructing his followers to call people racists and insult them if they say anything negative about him).
any answers from poster ? what does this mean?

No answers yet, eh, JTBB? That's what
Ah, poetry.
Guys, I'm going to be honest...sm
I don't see what the major deal is about the wire tapping. Maybe there's something I'm missing, but as a child I've always been told that the government tapped phone lines warrantlessly (seeing as how they could probably get a warrant anyway).

So tell me in laymen's terms, what is the big problem with this for the average law abiding citizen?
Nope, just honest...get over it!

Thanks for being honest, Kaydie. :)
It is fine to support whoever you want to support, and it is fine to change your mind about who you support. It should be who YOU want and feel will do the best for the country, whoever that is. And to have the guts to say so. Good for you, Kaydie!

I just got back from Gettysburg, and read the words "so that government of the PEOPLE, by the PEOPLE, and for the PEOPLE shall not perish from this earth." It does not say government of the PARTY, by the PARTY, and for the PARTY, shall not perish from this earth. It is about us, as individuals, and I wish every individual this election cycle would vote their individual conscience, what they really feel is right for the country, not what the DNC or RNC tells them they should.

THAT is what I like about Sarah Palin. She has bucked her party, she has faced down good ol' boy politics in her own party and cleaned them out...and most of all...she says that elected officials should serve with a servant's heart. GOOD FOR HER!! What a breath of FRESH AIR and how much further could you get from Washington politics as usual than that?? GO MCCAIN-PALIN!!
Now that would be an honest Democrat...lol

No, I will be honest, I waffled between he and two others at first...
as I researched it and the debates started, it came down to he and one other, and by the end of the primaries I was hoping he would be the candidate. Reader's Digest, it was not him alone at the start.

And I have no buyer's remorse. I still feel he is the guy for the job.
Honest answer
I'm sorry I can't answer your question with any first hand knowledge but IF the not so friendly countries support Obama and I don't know that they do......that's what the McCain campaign says...maybe it's because they are sick and tired of George W. Bush and his saber rattling.  Can't wait to get some of those Indian mangoes he traded nuclear technology for.
Well, to be honest poster really has no
Always wants facts but when you give them, all you get is a bunch of junk back!

Argument would be if they had something substantial to say in the first place.
And you think republicans are all honest?

Oops - yes I am one in the same - just want to be honest
I used grim reaper above cos that's what I thought of when I read the article I posted. Guess I should have put Grim Reaper/Just me as my name so there wouldn't have been any confusion.
At least be honest about your source
"...those who have contacts on Capitol Hill..."

Your post is taken virtually verbatim from a blog comment at freerepublic.com, from an email from Roy Beck, not from "those who have contacts on Capitol Hill."

Do you even know what E-Verify is and what it entails?

And I resent your implication that if I disagree with you, I'm not loyal to my country and don't "care anything about this country or [our] jobs."
So, you weren't exactly being honest.
If your husband is sitting at home buying and selling stocks for your own portfolio, he does not "work" in stocks/trading. I am not assuming anything, I am just going by what you say, which apparently is not true.

It seems that you are the one who is assuming much more about what I am thinking than I have actually said. I thin it's time you visit the "real world."
