Chuck Hagel: Quit Talking About The Surge, Focus On War's Future
Another John McCain Gaffe -- Iraq Was the First Major Conflict After 9/11

John McCain and "the Creeps"
America has an image and idea of who and what John McCain is based on the 2000 election when he earned a reputation as a straight talking maverick who is just like you. Unfortunately for him now that he has the undivided attention of all Americans we are rapidly finding out that he is a man with no principles or honor. He is in fact not the straight talking maverick that the media has made him out to be and then consistantly reinforced over the last seven years, but rather an angry, old man with a chip on his shoulder and a penchant for saying the wrong thing at any given moment.
John McCain allowed the party he represents and the man he supports and wants to replace to attack his family and lie about his children, he has allowed torture to continue in his name, he has supported unprecedented deficit spending, he has supported the taking of rights from American citizens for reasons he cannot articulate, he has flip flopped on any number of issues that will affect future generations, he has waffled on supporting veteran benefits, he has embraced the most radical elements of his party, he has ignored the will of the American people, he has supported and encouraged the division and seperation of the American people based on fear, race, sexuality and religion and proven beyond a doubt to not be representatve of the future I want for my children in America. posted 07/24/2008 at 17:54:47

The Land Of 10,000 Lakes And Even More Guns
Semper Fi what are you scared of? Why don't you have any faith in the goodness of America? Do grannies in America really need to carry a gun to protect their grandchildren? If that is true what does it say about our country? Are you so paranoid that every other American you run into on your daily journey through life is a threat? It really is to bad that a big tough marine like yourself feels that they cannot function in the USA without carrying a weapon for some unknown threat that is about to strike you down.
Semper Fi I wonder with you being so worried about your personal safety do you wear a seatbelt and drive at the posted speed limit? Do you drink alcohol? Do you smoke? Do you eat at McDonalds?

Obama Forces Flip-Flops to Paralyze McCain
Barack Obama is not perfect, he is not liked by all, some like him to much but we all can plainly see the difference between legacies and someone who earns their own way. Bush and McCain have proven to be stubborn, whiny, self centered and selfish individuals who graduated near the bottom of their classes and it shows everytime Barack steps up and performs beyond anyones imagination. Obama on the other hand worked his way up and learned how to negotiate, lead, and work with others along the way. Only one of these men is a leader and its not the two rich guys with chips on their shoulders. posted 07/23/2008 at 19:37:07
Joe Klein: John McCain's Comment On Obama Wanting To Lose War "Most Scurrilous" He's Ever Heard
The saddest thing of all about McCain and his candidacy is that the average America knows only what the media wants them to know about this man. They do not know the truth, they do not know his past, they do not know his record, they do not know the real John McCain. John McCain makes a great movie but a lousy book.
The movie would have him flying planes, the book would have him crashing many.
The movie would show a brave heroic man, the book would show him as an adulterous backstabber.
The movie would show him as a Annapolis graduate, the book would tell you that he was a poor student.
The movie would show him as honest, the book would make him one of the keating five.
The movie would show him as a maverick, the book would show him as a Bush lap dog.
The movie would show him as a man of principle, the book would show him as a swift boater.
This man is not who America thinks he is. He is very lucky that most Americans do not pay attention to facts but rather have uniformed opinion to guide them in the election booth. posted 07/23/2008 at 17:46:38

Americans have been taught to believe that tobacco is addictive, it is not. If you don't believe it then explain why replacing tobacco with four times the nicotine in gum and patches does not turn you into a patch or nicotine gum addict;
Tobacco is habit forming which is not an addiction.

Photog Back Home After Getting Kicked Out of Iraq -- For Showing the Real War
In America it is quite acceptable to post pictures of aborted fetuses at any stage of development because it promotes the desired agenda of those on the right wing. They feel that those pictures will affect us in ways that will make us decide to stop having abortions and embrace life as they understand it. At the same time these so called pro life individuals support the photo ban of flag draped coffins, graphic war pictures and of course dead soldiers because they know that if the public saw photos of that nature on a regular basis that we the people would demand the immediate end of George W Bush's war pf choice. So how pro life are pro lifers? It seems only as pro life as their political agenda allows them to be. posted 07/17/2008 at 18:07:58

A Grassroots Victory: Lieberman Must Go!
Meanwhile in a place known as reality the democratic majority continues to rubberstamp every item on President Bush's agenda. I find it amusing that you did not explain why minimum wage and healthcare for kids are more important than oh say continuing to fund an illegal war, allowing torture and scrapping our fourth amendment rights. The dems have the majority, why haven't they taken on these important issues. Oh yeah Lieberman won't allow it. posted 07/12/2008 at 17:46:15
All this talk of "we need Lieberman" is ridiculous. What America needs now is politicians with principles and by keeping Lieberman the democrats show that they have none. Why is Lieberman necessary? So the Democrats can vote against FISA? So the Democrats can stop funding the war? So the democrats can stop torture? So the democrats can put impeachment back on the table? If the democrats need Lieberman to maintain their majority then exactly what do they plan on doing with it other than continue giving Bush everything he wants? Lieberman is a convenient excuse for the Democrats to not accomplish anything of note for the rest of this election cycle and allows them to make promises like getting rid of Lieberman after the election even though no one really knows how the election will turn out. posted 07/12/2008 at 06:31:44

A Just Democracy
In a Country that prefers arguments over what people choose to put into or take out of their own bodies it is a long shot that we ever will be able to see the big picture and focus on the issues that are truly important. It is 2008 and we are bickering over issues that have already been discussed and settled by those who came before us, in some cases long, long before us. Yet we carry on as if we are the first to ever think that God may not exist, Science is a tool of the devil, infantcide and homosexuality never occured before and that republicans are better than democrats and vice versa.
The only way to break this endless loop of ignorance and willful stupidity is to educate our children. Educate our chldren in our rich and varied history, have them study the lives of our forefathers, have them repeat the words of wisdom uttered by Adams, Jefferson, Madison et al. Make sure they learn our shared history and expose them to the arguments our ancestors have already had and settled. Dates are not more important than events or words that happened on those days and that is what we should be teaching our children. Morals are not important if they come from a skewed and twisted education, Honesty does not matter if you do not know the truth. Beliefs do not trump actual events and wishful thinking does not replace the need for a functioning plan. posted 07/04/2008 at 08:48:36

A Mushroom And An Oak Tree
Sorry Father but the fruit in my life does not come from Jesus. Like millions of others on this planet I somehow manage to harvest, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control by using common sense , honesty and a genuine desire to live a full life. As far as I can tell Christians have not cornered the market on any of the fruits you mentioned and to say that a belief in Jesus is required to harvest them is a lie. I and millions of others in this world harvest these fruits daily and we are not in any way, shape or form are Christian.
Religion is not necessary to be spiritual, but honesty is an absolute requirement. Today our religious President who believes himself to be very spiritual is a known liar. His belief in Jesus is not used to promote any fruit harvesting but rather as a cloak to protect him from criticism and insulate him from taking personal responsiblility for his decisions. posted 07/05/2008 at 09:47:04

Both of these Candidates are subpar in my opinion. Hey New Hampshire how about we elect someone we do not know, we know both of these clowns which is all the reason why you should not vote for either. posted 07/01/2008 at 17:26:57

For McCain A Candidate's Military Pedigree Hasn't Always Mattered

Tell me superman how exactly our government will forcibly disarm the hundreds of millions of citizens who own guns? The argument about the government taking away our guns is ridiculous, it is a strawman and anyone with half a brain and not republican realizes that it would be physically IMPOSSIBLE for that to ever occur.
Speaking of the suppression of Constitutionally guarenteed rights have you checked out Bush and his hatred of the fourth amendment?
To compare and contrast existing laws that have nothing to do with another is a fair and valid way to check and to balance our system of justice. We do it all the time. posted 06/29/2008 at 11:17:03

This isn't about guns, or constitutional rights its about corporate profits. Gun manufacturers now have a new opportunity to sell more guns. It is just that simple.
Can you imagine if marijuana killed thirty thousand americans a year?

Bush Cites Enviro Concerns to Curb Solar Development...While Accelerating Oil Drilling
It is so typical of politicians to cite environmental concerns over solar placing another hurdle in front of the future all of us know is coming in order to appease a handful of fossil fuel pigs who apparently have not raped America enough yet and want one more round to make sure that every nook and cranny of our environment and economy is destroyed.
Remember republicans do not like our environment, it bothers them that the air is not polluted enough that they cannot sell us clean air. I can see how conservatives would be scared of solar technolog, at one time they were scared of gravity and even today they are scared of evolution.
How did this backwards thinking bunch ever get enough power to continue to stymie the natural progression of our species? posted 06/28/2008 at 07:49:07

Testicles
Bush is the first evangelical President who supposedly is as pro life as they come, but when it comes to crushing the testicles of a child he and his administration are OK with that. It really is unbelievable that anyone in this country still supports Bush and whats most telling is that those who still support him are the far right christians in this country.
Since Congress refuses to do anything to stop Bush and begin redeeming America in the eyes of it's citizens and the world, where exactly are the spiritual leaders of the world? Where are the Pastors, Rabbis, Priests, Cardinals, Popes and Imams on this issue? Why have they the supposed protectors of the weak and innocent stayed silent on this issue? Where is Hagee and wallis and Robertson are these self proclaimed patriots scared to criticize a President who shares their religion?
America is largely Christian and their silence on this issue is everything I need to know about thier beliefs. posted 06/28/2008 at 12:44:26

Joining GOP's Bold March Backwards, Bobby Jindal and Louisiana Democrats Pass "Stealth Creationism" Education Bill
Right, Dr. James Dobson is a Christian and a Scientist. The bible is not an owners manual, (perhaps you would care to point out what page tells me about priapism) it a code of justice designed to control the unruly masses by a handful of power hungry, scared, corrupt and hypocritial liars.
Perhaps you forget that if scientists of the past criticized christianity or God and did not toe the line that the powers that be desired these so called christian scientists were tortured, burned, and derided as heretics.
In a country that is majority christian it is no wonder that they represent the highest numbers of scientists. They also represent the most people who are incarcerated, who rape, who use drugs, who lie, who cheat on their spouses, who have abortions, who do not pay their taxes and so on and so on.
You are so right about the gifts of these scientists without whom we could not have the debate that wastes time, effort and money which of course is the debate surrounding intelligent design. Thank you Christian scientists for not researching cancer, or diabetes or any of the things that could possibly improve our lives instead focusing on an issue that is the epitome of science. posted 06/29/2008 at 09:44:56

We have children who are here now who suffer daily while our political and religious leaders stand on their soapboxes and scream about how important an unborn child is. We have a Christian President and administration who believe torturing a terrorists child is justifiable including the crushing of that chld's testicle. We have millions of christians in America who support war, turn thier back on genocide, hate choice, need the government to dictate who they can marry and support torture all in the name of Jesus Christ,

'Stop-Loss' Leads to Yet Another Soldier Suicide
Suicide is a tragedy that has touched millions of Americans. All the things that divide us as a nation do not affect suicide, in fact it is one of the things that unites us as human beings. The aftermath for those who are left behind is terrible, pain, grief, guilt, anger, confusion and many more emotions all come bubbling to the surface in order to try and make sense of a loss that is unfathomable to understand. This man gave everything to this Country and in return he was not rewarded for a job well done but rather held against his will because of poor planning by the powers that be.
George W. Bush asked us to sacrifice for this war by going to the mall and shopping. However the real sacrifice is the horrific stories like this that show how a President who does not think, plan, think, plan and then think some more before committing anyone's child to a war with no end will only end in tragedy for those the President orders affect the most. President Bush failed this young man, his comrades in arms and the American people by rushing into this war and lying non-stop for the justification of it's continuation. posted 06/26/2008 at 16:48:21

Mitch McConnell's Senate Seat Now In Jeopardy
As democrats smile and cheer about the GOP's own misfortune and subsequent disintigration they had better realize that it could just as easily happen to them. Especially since the party as a whole as shown this nation time and time again that they do not have a spine especially when it comes to holding Bush and Cheney accountable. Not one democratic leader is willing to sacrifice their position or their seat for principles that they believe in, as far as I can tell the decisions Pelosi has made have not been in support of the Constitution but rather what she thinks is in the best interest of the Democratic party and that proves she is not a leader we can believe in or trust. So be careful what you wish for you hardcore Democratic kool aid drinkers or all of you will follow the Republicans into the dustbin of history and leave the rest of us with Bob Barr and Ross Perot. posted 06/24/2008 at 16:28:30

Bush To Echo McCain's Plan To Drill In Oceans
the oil companies have leases upon leases upon leases and can drill whenever they want. They do not want to. Drilling is an expense and from what I am reading Exxon is so wealthy now they feel just selling gas is not profitable enough and are closing stations to curb costs. People seem to forget that Bush ran his oil company into the ground and demolished a few more balance sheets before he killed America and McCain only crashed airplaines which are expensive but can be written off especially if your daddy ia an admiral.

Let us learn from their triumphs and mistakes so that we can fulfill their dreams and do better than they.
