    I'm with you Middle america. Let the record speak for itself! I have heard Obama speak about what he would do about the economy and insurance for everyone. Do I believe everything I hear? and only half of what I see, but I have to believe in someone and it is not McCain or Palin. Some of you mention "experience" There are some of the candiates that have scades of experience and some who have not been office all that long. It depends on how strongly a candidate feels and that comes across with everyone who has come in contact with the candidate. I don't want to belilttle any of the candidates that is futile. But more of the same if a for sure thing out of McCain and Palin which equals "Bush." What is the excuse for "Bush." He was a govenor and people want to say Obama has no experience. Then how did Bush get elected. Was it majority bote or deception? No one can deny after seeing the stock market today on retail sales that Bush has certainly done a disservice to our wonderful country.

    So essarocket, I guess you are saying it is OK to exhibit unacceptable sexist behavior just so long as you advocate a liberal agenda. This sounds like the National Organization of Women's attitude during the many Clinton sex scandals that arose while he was President. Why do liberals have one set of rules for themselves but another for all the rest of us? Are you really condoning sexism? Where have you been for the past 60 years? If you are a woman, shame on you. If you are a man, I hope you are living in a monastery far away from civilization. Before you reply to this, you might want to pick up an equal employment opportunity (EEO) manual and educate yourself on what constitutes sexist behaviors.

By the way, you might want to pick up an equal opportunity manual and educate yourself on what constuitutes sexist behaviors.

    StraightTalker, your post is a goof, right? I mean, you really believe that? Hysterical, if that's the case! Come on already...
