    I fail to see how the comments being made have any relevance in regards to the piece. I guess ignorant people can't help themselves; they will take any opportunity to run their mouths off.

    When is the last time we had a sexy first lady. never Would you rather look at Hillarys ugly mug for the next four years. Or how about Obama a muslim who will not salute the flag. Imagine a commander and chief who will not salute the flag. Imagine a commander and chief who is a broad. We better start concentrating on something that actualy matters or we are in big trouble.

      What's wrong with having a smart broad for president for the next 8 years?

      Are you serious? Educate yourself before you make a post. You wont look so foolish.

      Obama is not a muslim. He's a Christian. Get your facts straight before you start running off at the mouth about stuff things that you know nothing about. And the word "broad"???? Who are you Mel Sharples from "Alice"? Maybe YOU should 'start concentrating on stuff that actually matters'.

    I lived in the great State of Ar while the Clinton's where in office. They will improve the job rate with min wage jobs; and I can tell you now from personal experience just listing to them reminds me of those horrible days. People hear what they want and see what they want; The (D) party and the (R) party alike have bad members but for God's sake open your eyes when it comes to the Clinton family.

    Your front story should be "Hail to the Breasts"

    McCain's wife has a nice rack. Can you see her reading to Americas youth. Maybe the kids will get a story and free MILK. Not much of an example to the youth of today. Take a good look at each person and notice what they are doing, the people with them and what type of animal they have. Some protect, some are Kings, some may want to kill! Great pictures.

    IF CLINTON WINS ALL MEN ARE SCREWED...IF OBAMA WINS WE ARE ALL SCREWED!!!! THE GUY THINKS HE IS MARTIN LUTHER KING FOR GOD SAKES. GOD HELP US ALL, THIS COUNTRY IS GOING TO ***~ JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION THOUGH

    • Posted By: GardenMama @ 02/11/2008 11:17:24 AM

      Ha! At lastI found someone with a brain! Thank you voicing your opinion. My husband and I were just wondering if the people who voted for Obama wanted this country to go to the bottom of the totem poll!

      You must be an illegal immigrant fighting for your time to stay in America.

  • Posted By: satiamee @ 02/11/2008 3:19:37 AM

    Why do you think he allows it? Do you think she has to ask permission to show her cleavage? Your comment was very sexist. Just because your a conservative doesn't mean you have to rule your woman.

    • Posted By: psalinas @ 02/11/2008 11:03:04 AM

      I would rather have to close my eyes so as not to see her clevage than plug my ears so I don't have to hear Bill Clinton lie almost every time he runs his mouth.

  • Posted By: kapwalamo @ 02/11/2008 7:43:46 AM

    I am surprised that you can even write English, with comment like this, one is inclined to believe that you are uneducated, and only repeat what you hear or think you've heard. Or you are inherently dishonest. Shame on you for spreading rumor like.

    • Posted By: psalinas @ 02/11/2008 10:48:54 AM

      forget about English with who you have running for president you better take Spanish lessons. See you on the other side of the border, we are coming. United States is very good to us

  • Posted By: crazybaby @ 02/11/2008 6:04:22 AM

    When was the last really hot first lady? Never. Do we realy want to look at haggy hillarys mug for the four years. Or Barak who is really a muslum who refuses to salute the flag. A commander and chief who will not salute the flag. A commander and chief who is a broad. So McCains wife is sexy. We all better put our heads on strait and start thinking about actual things that matter.

    • Posted By: Valentine214 @ 02/11/2008 10:48:50 AM

      Obama is NOT a Muslim, and he will make a GREAT Commander-IN-Chief. Geez, where are the well-read, intelligent folks to discuss REAL issues? Put YOUR head on STRAIGHT and look forward to some REAL change on 1/21/2009.....

  • Posted By: clemsonguy826 @ 02/11/2008 7:42:00 AM

    Actually, He is a Muslim; Obama grew up in a Muslim Home and in order to recieve votes for office He joined a Church of Christ, so he could get the persona of a "Christian!" When we the people, go into offices for our government, we lay our hands on the Bible (Christians and non-christians) but He wouldn't, He asked for the Koran. (and if you didn't know, that is the bible of the muslim faith) So how can He not be a Muslim?

    • Posted By: JDDN @ 02/11/2008 8:44:58 AM

      How utterly sad!!! No wonder the youth of today is confused, they are being raised by idiots. Many children are raised under a religion or political party and then change, when grown, because they do not hold the same views as their parents. Moreover, Barrack Hussein Obama's parents split up when he was a young child.

      Additionally, lets address this erroneous fallacy going around about him and the Koran. He was NOT the Member of Senate or Congress who was sworn in on the KORAN that by the way was owned by Thomas Jefferson. Perhaps you might want to spend time on a site called Google or Ask.com and check your facts before posting your assinine views.

      He is Christian, that was sworn in by the Bible and YOU need to get you facts right. We live in America the meling pot of every religion and culture. If he is Muslim (which he is not) should it matter. Why does the President of the United States have to Christian? Why can't he just be the best person for the job?

    • Posted By: Alicia1115 @ 02/11/2008 8:40:35 AM

      This is not true and you should get your facts right before you post anything. We live in America the melting pot of just about every religion and culture. If he was a Muslim (which he is not) it shouldn't really matter.

  • Posted By: psalinas @ 02/11/2008 10:42:38 AM

    It might be a good idea for all of you engish speaking Americans to enroll in some Spanish classes with the choices you have for leaders. See you on the other side the border that is Ha Ha

  • Posted By: shawinc @ 02/11/2008 3:09:01 AM

    I think it was a bad ideal that sentor mcclain to allows his wife to show her cleavage. It doesnt represent the conservtive party, also it disrespect women of class and education. we do not need hollywood running the white house.

    • Posted By: crazybaby @ 02/11/2008 6:06:06 AM

      The man is not conservative. He is a moderate.

      • Posted By: margaret70403 @ 02/11/2008 10:41:59 AM

        Hey Guys, How about important issues. When push comes to shove, I am just interested in someone who will make the right decisions and keep us safe. The rest of it doesn`t really matter. Our wonderful United States is in trouble. I want someone who has all of our interests in common. Socialized Medicine and pulling out of Iraq is not in everyones best interest. Right now we are literally fighting for our rights, freedoms and our lives. God help us all to make the right person President.

    • Posted By: swdavis51 @ 02/11/2008 6:12:51 AM

      You missed the point entirely. If you have a wife like that in the White House, you won't be searching for any interns at the Capitol.....And, by-the-way Mrs. McCain dresses appropriately for public functions and would make a beautiful first lady.

  • Posted By: Ruthie42 @ 02/11/2008 8:53:44 AM

    Cindy McCain shows too much cleveage to be first lady..well, makes about as much sense as voting for "the other party" to keep and woman or a Muslim out - let's vote for a while, male, prostestant- just make sure HE is a conservative..all Americans unite and believe the same way...and don't forget Cindy's cleveage when you pull the lever!!!

    • Posted By: Valentine214 @ 02/11/2008 10:41:30 AM

      Who cares about Cindy McCain's cleavage...She and her cleavage aren't moving from Arizona because her husband will not win. BTW, Obama is NOT a Muslim. Read a book occasionally and get yourself educated. Remember: There's a special place in hell for women who don't support other women! So go ahead and grab yourself a nice cold beer because it's gonna get hot down there!!

  • Posted By: jamielynn @ 02/11/2008 10:32:33 AM

    I Agree!! We as a country need to get a grip on animal cruelty. There need to be tougher laws, penalties, and a system that enforces all of the above. Mike Vic is just one person of too many to count that should be faced to be accountable for their part in animal cruelty. Can't any candidate at least give a subtle hint on where they stand on these issues. Speak up SOMEONE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Posted By: ssonn07 @ 02/11/2008 10:23:47 AM

    I haven't heard one candidate discuss animal rights or wildlife. In this day when greed rules all, it's very important to me to get a sense of kindness, even vegginess from one or more of the candidates to make them stand out. Of course, they can't risk scaring off agribusiness.

  • Posted By: SandrineDogLover @ 02/11/2008 10:03:18 AM

    If they all so care about dogs maybe they should start doing something about Puppy mills ! There might be a lot to do when you are a politician but don't forget those poor animals who live in horrible conditions : they have feelings too. Puppy mills are just for business so please, can someone stop them for good ????
