How can you suggest that anyone be killed? No one life is more important than the other, no matter who is killed someone out there loves them. You do not have to be a high profile person to worth something.
DSCHINZ, IF WE DIDN'T HAVE MEXICAN PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY WHO WOULD HARVEST OUR FOOD? YOU? WHO WOULD GROW OUR FOOD, YOU? MEXICAN PEOPLE ARE HARD WORKING PEOPLE AND VERY KIND I MIGHT ADD AND PROUD OF A JOB WELL DONE. I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE LIKE THAT INFILTRATING OUR COUNTRY.
Who's immigrant friend do you feel should be killed, mine or yours? Your a lowlife.
It amazes me the hatred and racism that spews from everyday people on these comment blogs. Do you say stuff like this in your everyday conversations or around other races? I seriously doubt it. And people kill me with this question of morality and abortion. Women having abortions are really morally sound, upstanding and God fearing individuals.....Give me a break! And I guess if Obama is killed, most of you will be happy. McCain will probably die of natural causes since he is so old so no one will have to assassinate him.
Doesnt anyone remember this county was founded "under God"? Unfortunately it is no longer, some people do need Goverment regulates to be forced to do the right thing, Mr. Reality.
In response to Soccermom78...
Obama is a product of a broken home but it is very ignorant to say that is predominant in the black culture. By saying that your insinuating that does not happen in white culture. That is a problem that happens to Americans, there are plenty of little white children abandoned by there father. There are specific magazines and tv shows aimed at African-Americans but those 2-3 channels pail in comparison to the channels that cater to white America. African American's have 1 specific channel (that is owned and operated by a white male) while all other channels are basically aimed at white America. Affirmative action has been cancelled please read before you write. If there was a White Entertainment Television what would it show? BET shows music videos and shows much like VH1 and MTV so your WET has been done. The reason why the prisons are full of African American's is largely due to the disparity between the sentences. Crack cocaine which is predominantly used by African American's recieves a much longer and tougher sentence than powder cocaine which is used by Whites. Is that fair? Its all cocain right? Explain that for me. Yes the country did open up its enrollment for officers to be more friendly for minorites but that is a tough sell. Who wants to be apart of an organization that has beat, arrested and killed so many? If the Black Panther organization opened enrollment to whites would there be a flood of people joining? Didn't think so. Finally I'd like to say that Black history month (which is the shortest month of the year) shows the massive amount of inventions that Blacks have given to society. Your statement "varitable handful" is horribly incorrect. The other 7 months are based solely on white history. Its not our fault whites did own slaves and kill natives. Face your history. But that is not the only thing they speak about, your focusing on the negative. Maybe you should take a history course or read sometime. Whties that are afraid of blacks merely because they are black is ignorant. But as they say ignorance is bliss....so you enjoy.
i hear what your saying falcon but it's the girls your age that's having unprotected sex and abandoning there kids /abortions you need to blame the parents that's where it starts at dont blame it on the government they have bigger fish to fry like the killing of soldiers have you been on the front line ?
Lots of angry people on this blog. I do know that we as American's need to get our Congress as well as the President working for the good of the nation. Congress has failed and history will judge Bush as to his performance.
We also need to start talking to one another as equals and w/ civility. Interestingly I've learned that when people raise their voices and shout at each other nobody gets heard.
I'm not a fan of democrats as they scare me w/ their socialist agenda. However, that doesn't mean that they don't have some valid issues and should be heard.
This country is ready for a women president or a person of color. Unfortunately based soley on experience Obama is not the guy. It's too bad Gen. Powell hadn't run or Condi Rice. I think public opinion would have been channeled towards their qualifications and expierence and not race or gender.
Lastly, I would ask all American's to try civility towards your fellow man/woman. With a little practice I bet we can all learn to hear everyone's opinion no matter how strongly you disagree w/ it. America (and you personally) will be better off w/ this approach.
Practice it......I try to do so even though I detest what the democratic party stands for.....but I view them as a balance to my more right wing views. Balance is essential in any relationship or to keep a country moving towards a common goal. (Freedom and the well being of it's citizens).
Do your part in Nov and vote for your candidate of choice. And when all the votes are counted stand behind that person when you can, and where you can't, let your voice in opposition be heard. But use that voice it in a constructive manner void of hate. Leave the hate at home. Our very lives depend on our president and congress succeeding.
we already have a balance in the rest of the world. it's called socialism. we don't need it here
of course it's a white man trying to take down another black man this loser must have been bored or kicked out of his parents sweet

He does...he values change. He's going to change this country...to what? I'm not sure. He's going to change our economic situation. How? I'm not sure. He's going to change the the way I hang onto my guns and religion. How? I'm not sure He's going to change our international policies...the way we interact with other nations. How? I'm not sure.
Why am I not sure?
I'm not sure because he's never told us HOW he's going to do ANYTHING! He's just playing on the fears and insecurities of millions of people that during the last few years have begun to feel the never-ending cycle of ANY country...there are always up and downs. That is inevitable.
Since George Bush is responsible for the hurricanes, global warming, floods, tornadoes, and EVERY other bad thing that has happened in this country during his two terms...I'm POSITIVE that Obama will be able to stop every natural disaster, create millions of jobs, become friend with Iran...and even lower the temperature of the globe by at LEAST 20 degrees.
Because he is going to CHANGE the world.
of course it 's a whiteman have nothing better to do i say pound this dude out
The attention this story is garnering has a very strong "Wag The Dog" feel to it. Remember the movie w/the same title? A White House Press Secretary and a movie producer conspire to create a ficticious war/crisis in a ficticious foriegn country to media deflect attention from the president's "indescretions".
It seems to me that you have people who recall Ronald Reagan's meteoric rise in popularity following the attempt on his life and are determined to use this "incident" to buttress Obama's slipping polling strength against John McCain, especially since his "Convention bump" in popularity has amounted to a single whoppin statistical point. These are the same folks who have yet to write or report a single disparaging story about Obama, and have run for the fences w/every negative story about McCain (the lobbiest/"mistress" His homes, his admitting he isn't as well versed in economic matters as he would like, etc etc.).
This has yet to dissuade me from supporting Senator McCain . If you dig a bit deeper you'll find that one of McCain's homes is currently lived in by an elderly aunt, free of charge. How many of Obama'a extended family of half-brothers and sisters in Africa does he support in such a matter? The answer is zip. Zero. Nada. He has family members in Kenya living on roughly $20 a month. Take a look at the Obama's percentage of their income they donate to charity. Last year it amounted to around 5%. John and Cindy McCain donate over 20% of their annual income to charity, yet none of that has made the news. John McCain has had his life threatened no fewer than 30 times since he first sought the Republican nomination in 2000 yet you don't hear about it. Why? Because he doesn't consider his own life of any greater consequence than anyone else's. Most of these incidents have been kept out of the news at the request of the senator. That, and he isn't the mainstream media's darling.
These aren't the real reasons I plan on voting for McCain this year instead of Obama. The 1st reason is the same question Hillary Clinton posed during the primary race. Yeah he can pump up a crowd, but what does he really stand for? His 1st big call to fame was opposing the Iraq War and promising a quick pullout, yet he flipflopped on that in a hurry. The next is something I heard Senator McCain say once in a speech, It was an incredibly brave thing for a politician to say, and it was something that all great men/leadrs have had in comon, and it was that he didn't know everything about everything. he admitted that he had issues that he wasn't as knowledgable about as he would like, and that to address these issues in the best possible manner he would seek the best possible counsel, incuding that of THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!
He's only "black" because it will help him win!
I honestly don't believe that Obama's campaign would falsify a story like this. Threats on this man's has to be taken seriously - just as those made on McCain. What this shows is that he's not a coward, neither is McCain. What I'm trying to say is it's ludicrous to dismiss what could have been a successful attempt on this man's life as a ploy, or some movie plot.
I really enjoyed reading your comment. I can honestly say that I don't usually follow politics, but after reading your comment, I have to say it made great conversation in my office.
It's really intersting that you believe "life immitates art", I always thought it was the other way around. That the plot to the movie, was "immitating life". The question that I would like to present to you is, do you really feel that Obama has some indiscretions that's he's trying to hide? Personally, he's human, so we know that he's imperfect, but ... honestly!
Next, do you really feel that because the amount he donates, or whatever type of relief he's sending to his extended family is prevy to you, that he's not doing it? Also you do understand that the more $ you make, it's financially more beneficial to McCain, because it's a tax write off. But I would like to ask you, how much and what percentage of your income are you donating to charity? It must be nice to be able to afford to give 20% of your income away. I think 20% of my income goes toward paying for gas.
I understand that these are not the "real" reason you are voting against Obama, but they are definitely identifiers that you are using in making your decision.
Pumping up a crowd - honestly isn't there some class that ALL politicians take to learn how to be charasmatic and such. I think just has hard as you find reason to vote for McCain, you should do research and find out what Obama stands for. I mean, honestly the media isn't going to tell us everything. Let's dig deeper and find out.
How many times in your life, have you made a decision and you really believed that what you were doing or going to do was the best thing for you and your (family) at the time. And as time progressed you realized that some changes to that decision had to be made. Now maybe you didn't diverge from it completely but you had to make changes. Now, should your family call you a flipflopper because of it? Or better yet, do you define yourself as a flipflopper, when you decide to "change your mind".
He's only "black" because it will help him win!

InfinitelyDisgusted you said it really well. I lost respect for McCain when i found out what he did to his first wife and children. He want to paint a picture that he is a perfect man and brush aside all his flaws. He is worst than Bill Clinton because he left his wife for a younger woman. A real soldier, a real man, a real father and a real husband would not add to the turmoil and stress of a family that obviously went through so much. Think about those children, the ones he don't even acknowledge in this election and how he made them suffer. SHAME SHAME SHAME ON YOU McCain a real woman ought to be disgusted by you.

IM am very afraid if this man becomes president that this country will end up in as bad a shape if not worse than when Jimmy Carter was president. For those who do not remember back then this country came within 15 mins yes 15 mins of having to declare bankruptcy. This man has stated that he wants to follow in carter's economic footsteps and that is extrememely bad news. And for those who blame Bush for the Oil crisis they need to wake up, its oil speculators who have caused this and we can lay that at Al Goire and Clinton who have relegated this great nation to a laughing stock. All our jobs have gone overseas and that was cause of the NAFTA and now we are paying for iut. We are ending up being ruled by the europeans and asia and thats the worst crime of all and people that is because of the democrats and thier left wing hipocracy. We need a maverick like McCain who yes he has at times voted with Bush but people Bush had a great economic policy going until our Congress took control with the likes of Pelosi and Reed. Their scare tactics is what caused this mess so wake up or we will no longer be the United Staes but the Divided States of America because honey the left wing will never work with the republicans they have proven it year after year. God save us all if we don't learnt to end politics as it has been the past 8 yrs and let the people's will rule as it is meant to be not Congress's rule.
OMG, how can so much ignorance pour out of the mouth of one person? Turn off Fox and your AM radio, dude. You need some real life education.
This is real life education. Do we really need a Muslim, and yes he certainly is. Obama can candy coat it anyway he wants...look at that lovely church he was a member of for 20+ years. He is a mean, nasty, "hate whitey" guy. Why do you think there have not been any more attacks on the US since 9/11? Why bother...we have a Muslim working from the inside, trying to run our government. WAKE UP PLEASE.
And the seeds of that destruction, my friend, were sown by the likes of you who believe any amount of propaganda the conservatives throw your way. But I can't blame you. The media is, after all, owned by the conservative right (Rupert Murdoch, etc), so how could you get a fair and balanced view of the world? Amazingly, many of us who don't subscribe to your philosophy have found ways to pierce the veil of lies presented as facts in this country, and I can only hope that we'll be the ones who prevail in November. I'll give you credit for one thing. You sure make your bs believable, and that's how it's so easy for it to spread. And since you have the so-called liberal media on your side, spread it does. LIke wildfire. But remember, repeating something you've read or heard doesn't make it true. You have to dig deep to find the truth for yourself, and sadly that's why this country is in decline. People just don't do it because it takes too much effort.
Come on, man. The current oil crisis caused by speculators and Clinton and Gore? What?!? You can't be serious. First, the President doesn't make laws. Conress does. If you think the speculators were allowed to do what they've done because of DEREGULATION, then you can blame your party for that because the Republicans ran Congress under Clinton. And then to say that NAFTA resulted in our jobs going overseas is simply ludicrous. Jobs are going overseas, but to CHINA and INDIA!!! NAFTA is a trade agreement with Mexico and Canada. Get your facts straight. And if you believe Bush had such a great economic plan until the Democrats got control of Congress, then you can only blame yourself and others who think like you for the current decline of this country. Bush's economic plan was pure Reaganomics - tax cuts for the Rich, widen the gap between the rich and poor, and let the magnanimity of the rich trickle down through the economy to buoy up the poor. It was disastrous then, and it is even more so now. In the last 8 years we've seen corporations get huge tax cuts to prop up their bottom line, and how did they respond? By outsourcing jobs overseas and laying off American workers. And the bottom line looked so good that CEOs got huge multimillion dollar salaries at the expense of the worker. And don't kid yourself about Carter. He had a plan to get us off foreign oil dependence as a result of the 1973 oil crisis (remember that? - try to blame that on the Dems - that happened under Nixon's watch), and it would have worked if Reagan hadn't become President and rolled back all the policy that was put in place by Carter. So alternative energies were killed, and we started sucking hard on the mideast oil tit because it was good for business. And if you think we came within 15 minutes of bankruptcy under Carter, brother, you ain't seen nothing yet. The mortgage meltdown and the ramifications of the credit crisis have not been fully realized. This all happened under Bush's watch and was a direct result of his administration's policy. It's LACK OF OVERSIGHT because in his mind corporations and big business can do no harm. Let the market work itself out. Well in this case it does it to the tune of billions that we ALL pay for in the form of government sponsored bailouts. If you want to be truly scared, then read this http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26420600. You should be more afraid of the FDIC collapsing then having Obama as President.
I think we need to let go off the past because I think we're allowing it to cloud our judgment. Really, let good sense prevail. Obama's campaign slogan: "yes, we can" is a powerful one. It shows inspiration, strength, motivation, and brings about a lot of positivity. Let's all just get along and make this place a better place for ourselves and our posterity by giving support to those who can make it better for us - without using violence. Violence solves nothing!!!
we? can? are you able to define those terms? democrats are always loud...always ignorant. get ready to payback the chinese. they aren't gonna pay for your welfare state
why does it have to be about race? i would vote for obama in a heartbeat if he had any moral values.
Where was Obama Bin Laden born??
Where is his birth certificate and proof that he is even an American?
Arnold should be allowed to run for the presidency if this Kenyan is handed a slot
you mean obama bin biden?
Typical racism....... why would anyone question Obama's american authenticity and ask for his birth certificate.... ??? If he was white you never would have asked the question. All Americans.... including "white" amricans origanated from some other country at some point in time.
He was born in Hawaii
Have Obama Bin laden prove that he was born in Hawaii. Also, if one of the parents is not American, the mother has to have lived in the United States for at least five years before the birth of the presumptive presidential candidate, and be at least 18 years old, when she squeezes out the kid. Thia broad was not here for 5 years until she was 21 and Hussein Obama was already 3 yrs old. Not legal.
Here's to a McCain and Condi Rice ticket!!!!
Here's to a McCain and Condi Rice ticket!!!!
i have nothing against a black president....rice, powell to name two. i do have a problem electing a black panther wanna-be.
There is no proof that Obama Bin Laden was born in Hawaii. This Kenyan refuses to provide proof that he is an American citizen or that he was born in America. If he were born in Hawaii, he still would not be legal to run for the presidency, because his nut-case mother would have to have lived in America for five years before the birth and(not or), be more than eighteen years of age. This broad got to Hawaii when she was 16.
