“I respect you and applaud you. You have it exactly right. This insane atmosphere is pitting family members against each other, friends against friends, etc. My own mother and I cannot discuss politics as she for too long has spent her days watching Glenn Beck, et al.

I voted for Reagan, GW Bush and Clinton, Gore and Obama. I want a fiscally conservative government that puts people first, but leaves religious beliefs to the individual, and out of government. I can be fair and balanced, but have felt alone for a long time.”

“Yes. She's defending the right of people to ask about the situation in Hawaii. People had the right to challenge John McCain, and did they ever. I believe you simply hate Palin and take every opportunity to slam her.”

“Karen, I agree. She is the definition of a narcissist. I believe she has made so many insane comments that there is no way she would pass muster on a national scale when it got down to the wire. And if she could, god help America.”

Did you ever think that George W could not only steal the Presidency, but get re-elected? Me neither, but it happened.

“This woman has no political aspirations long term. It is all about being in the spotlight and making money on her book. What a sad caricature.”

“She is here to make cover for the GOP so we don't take a closer look at what they are doing in the Senate. She keeps everybody's focus on her while the crooks keep digging deeper and deeper holes behind our backs.

“The banks are disgusting, and both parties have let them run amok. Meanwhile, Americans vote based on morality issues, and are destroying their own lives. Divide and conquer.

I, for one, am defaulting on my credit cards after reading this. I am sick to death of banks. I have asked for relief, and instead half my payment goes to feed their endless pit of interest rate profits, and the balance never seems to move. And no, I did not buy 'stuff', I used it for medical expenses. What a joke. My FICO score means nothing, who is lending anyway?! Meanwhile, my bank was the first with their hand out for OUR money. Enough.”

“GMAC approved us for permanent modification a few weeks ago. It was hell to go through, but for us, kept us in our home. We were never behind in payments though, and we have income to make our payments. We just had to change our 15 yr. loan to 23 years, and went from 6% to 2% currently, caps at 5% for the life of loan in five years.

I feel incredibly grateful to President Obama for making this possible. Under President Bush, we were denied two times. I was specifically told this was made possible by the Obama's Loan Modification program.”
