What a moron. It has NOTHING to do with the WAR...no, couldn't possibly be a Repub's fault. That would be blasphemy. Bite me McCain!

Ok guys, here we go again. Another republican trying to manipulate the people with lies. He can say he is not like Bush but don't believe him. Be careful for men like him who think that we are all foolish enough to believe it. Drilling here WILL NOT help you save some money, only put more money into the pockets of the rich. Here this McCain...I fought to keep Bush out of the White House, fought for 8 years to get him kicked out and now I am going to fight against you. I will not stop until I know the country is safe from you.

Sorry...typo on my previous comment....meant to say HEAR this McCain. Seriously people, watch out for him....he will only continue to help his own. He is very dangerous, not just on this matter but so many others. Be careful who you vote for. I can honestly say that once they are in they are really hard to be rid of again. Just ask all those who tried to have Bush impeached as he deserved to be. No longer will Nixon be considered the most dishonest politician in american history now that we have had to deal with Bush.

McCAIN'T IS-CRUEL--VICIOUS--EVIL! NOBABA IS?? (NO CHOICES FOR PREZ)

Horrifying brutality orchestrated by a cruel, indifferent Senator: John McCain, and business interests from Illinois and Massachusetts. The Navajo have been our Code Talkers in time of war,

Bush and McCain standing side by side=the Evil Duo. I don't often want to retch when I just look into someone's face--not until I saw McCain on my TV. OBama--no better, I would never have previous to the last 8 years considered voting NO in NOvember--but when I saw the invite to join that group it just made sense to me.Cannot honestly see that either one will make a difference or a change. Of course I figure it will take the next 20 or so years to undo what W has done. Yeah Nixon looked like the devil until they unleashed the real devil and his name is George Bush. O ya just had to go and get me started didn't y'all!!!!!!!

POP QUIZ:

Who took the solar panels off the White House roof?

Answer this question correctly and you'll know which party is responsible for the energy/environmental crisis.

The truth is, it doesn't matter who of the "sanctioned" candidates win. All who are able to get attention from MSM are already sanctioned by the PTB. The only candidates who could make a real difference are Dennis Kucinich, (oops, not running anymore, couldn't get any MSM attention), Cynthia McKinney, a dem running on the Green Party, Ron Paul, a libertarian who was running on the Rep party or Ralph Nader. Not sure about Ralph Nader though.

We would have voted for McKinney, but we are putting the NO back in November. Really want to seek truth? Really want to know what's actually going on and has been going on behind our backs and right under our noses for over 100 years, watch this film, on installment plan if you have to, and then check out the websites I'm posting. Since they already have plans to get rid of the free internet, I don't know how long any of this will rmeain available,

We each have a choice right now. Get educated and take the necessary steps to free ourselves and our loved ones or live with the consequences of what is planned by the power elite. America is not the country we were all raised to believe it is. The Act of 1871 turned the US Gov't into a corporation. Then came the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. Then the Sheppard Towner Maternity Act and the issuance of SS cards turned all of us into chattel for the corporation. We have believed we are free citizens in a free country. The whole thing is a fraud. Until everyone wakes up and realizes what America really is, and what the PTB really are, and takes right action there just ain't a whole lot anyone is going to be able to do. I say this with great sincerity and the belief that we the people are generally good people who want a good life for ourselves and our kids.

Luck, you have said it about as clearly as it can be said. Every single person here who thinks that voting for Obama is going to save us from the agenda that took us into an illegal war, makes America guilty of genocide according to the international definition of that word, farmed out American jobs to overseas markets, rolled over for the pharmaceutical industry, the oil industry and the Constitutional crimes of Bush et al is heading for heartbreak. And this time, maybe some of us will learn that it is those who do vote and who do hand the mandate that legitimized the new dictatorship as a democracy in the eyes of the world who will have no business to complain. It is not a crime to hope. It is not even a crime to buy into the lies because you NEED them to be true. But
wilfull blindness IS a crime. So it is a crime to buy into either one of them without checking to see who is funding McCain and who is funding Obama. Notice anything? Remember:

"He who pays the piper calls the tune".

McCain and Obama are both just pipers. Who's calling the tune? It really isn't hard to find out.

Okay. If McCain gets in, we definately know what is going to happen no matter what comes out of his mouth. The strings are attached to him so others can pull his strings...because he is senile. At least with Obama, we aren't sure what he can really do. He does have support in Congress from both sides and he has some power houses in both the senate and the house. I see a little light in this thought. To not vote means you have no say in anything as you gave up your right to bitch cause you were too lazy to try and help. When I was a kid, I used to argue that my right to vote was just that, a right to vote or not vote. At my age I know better. Either help with the problems or be a part of the problem. Ya all can yell but at least do something. Start a write in vote across America. You have a computer. Obama was not my first choice and McCain was never my choice. As far as funding, Obama got a lot of it on line from every day people like you and me with little income to spare. The other side took all they could and used big business and bogus companies...check for yourselves. This is my country and I'll be damned if I will sit idly by and let another 4 years of Republican BS happen. I truly pity any Democrat that takes POTUS as he/she would have to be a miracle worker to start. Hell, I wouldn't know WHERE to even start. No one can straighten this out in 4 years and we should expect it. So, all you unhappy people, get to gettin and start a write in vote.

I don't believe that drilling is the answer to our present crisis, but if the Dumbocrits would have allowed us to start drilling in "95" we would not be in this prediciment now!! Oh, but I know that drilling is anathama to environmentalists, but what is more important, saving the polar bears, rain deer, and fish or our national security? You want to save the fish that's fine but don't blame Bush, that other moron was in the WH when we first tried to produce our own oil. So, I do agree it wasn't Obama's fault its Bubba's!!

But drilling is not the answer. It's too late for that. We're already too far in the hole. Alternative, renewable energy is the way to go. But even that is going to take time, 10 yrs or more. There is no qick fix for the situation we are in, no matter who's fault it is. Pointing fingers solves nothing. We get nowhere. And that's where we are now. We have to come up with a plan that satisfies BOTH sides of this debate. T. Boone Pickens has a plan. It utilizes what we already have and it can be done within 10 yrs.

Mc "Cain said to his brother Abel, 'Let"s go out to the field'. And while they were in the field, Mc Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him".

John Mc$ame is a "trained killer" same as George W. Bu$h ...

I'm an ex democrat because of the DNC and their rigging the election. Now I am an independent and I am votin for McCain. McCain did not blame Obama. McCain is saying that Obama should admit to the surge being successful.

Here is what gets me upset. Obama is over there as an unofficial democratic nominee and he is talking to heads of state without being privy to very important information. He is talking with them...not listening but pledging things. HOW CAN A CANDIDATE DO THIS? This guy is endangering my family who are soldiers over there. McCain is right. Obama would rather win the Presidency rather than doing what is right for American. He is a dangerous, egotistical idiot

If elected, taxes must be increased. Under John McCain, we have a chance for a better economy. Therefore... I think Obama needs to go the same ways of John Kerry. Besides... Obama is way to arrogant. He doesn't have a chance to win. Bring back Hillary and the dems may get a shot at the Whitehouse.

they both suck. ron paul republican and kuchinich / democrat were the only ones running not serving the corporations / cfr. even if obama or mccain have any good intention, no matter who wins the winner will be blamed for all the problems. we need to vote everyday with what really counts - where we spend. stop buying from the companies polluting our earth. peace

Amusing enough, I heard something on the radio today about if we drill in Alaska, that half the profits go to Russia because of the sale agreement back when Imperial Russia sold Alaska to the US. So...mm...that wouldn't help much with cutting down gas at all. I'm voting Obama, and riding my bike, ef gas. I hope it goes up to $50 a gallon!
