I keep wondering why people are so in thrall of Obama. I mean, this guy, if elected, will have his hand in every ones pocket quicker than a cat can lick its ass. His one asset is his oratorical skills: he can charm the birds off of the trees, he can speak for an hour, yet say nothing; why, he can send thrills up the legs of the liberal media mafia. Now, that's some feat; the guy is a con artist. He's way to the left of Kennedy, Kerry, parson Gore and all of the other hate-America-firsters. How has he gained so much trust from the voters? He really hasn't said anything of note, he hasn't mapped out any policy, nor has he crafted and resolutions of note. From what I've read about him (his own books and other authors') he is a radical and so far to the left that he will have to stack the supreme court with like minded people to by pass the constitution. I'm sure the American people would not allow his hair-brained scheme of wealth distribution, disarmament, renegotiate NAFTA, and all of the other surprises he has up his sleeve. I live in Canada via way of Ireland, and I can tell you: this guy scares the hell out of me. He has the thinnest of resumes, he's no accomplished anything of note, (it was his friends the corrupt Daly political machine that got him elected in Illinois), many these same friends are guiding his run for the White House. If any other person had a similar political background, they wouldn't have a snowballs chance.. Yet there he is with a good chance to be the leader of the free world, notwithstanding his close association with unrepentant terrorists, a convicted felon, a hate America/Israel Middle East Studies professor (Columbia U.) who is a close friend of Obama and his wife. This is not the kind of guy I would like to lead my country.
Dromara, you make comments about Obama being leftist yet you live in CANADA of all places. Canada is by far more socialist than the U.S ever will be. Obviously since you left Ireland, it was your choice to live there. I'm not knocking Canada, however I do find it ironic that someone with right-winged values such as yourself decided to live in a country with socialist values. Must be nice to attack someone for being to the left in the morning, then later in the afternoon you can head to the doctor to take advantage of that dirt cheap healthcare your new country offers. Why don't you bring your right-winged values down here and buy a house, so you can later take out a second mortgage when you or your kids need a medical procedure done? If you think things would be so bad under an Obama administration, why haven't you lived here the past 8 years to find out what real misery is? I'd rather vote for a candidate with no experience running a state or business but armed with a well thought out plan for America (Obama), than a candidate with no experience running a state or business and no plan whatsoever (McCain). McCain supporters, your candidate can't run a country on personal attacks and talking points. And his 'plan', if you want to call it that, changes with the wind.
Hi give_me_a_break, give me a break! You assume a great deal. I came to Canada because of the excellent job opportunities, politics had nothing to do with it. And by the way, when I arrived in Canada the country was run by the Progressive Conservatives. Canada moved to socialism under the Liberals and Pierre Trudeau ten years later. Cheap health care?! I think you have some homework to do. and why do you assume I have "right-wing values? And by the way I have already bought a house in the U.S. You live in misery this past 8 years?! Give me a break. You state that Obama has a well thought out plan for America. Well, I'm a political junkie and have followed Obama's shady cake walk through the primaries right up to the present, but have heard little or nothing from him on his "well thought out plan for America". Surely you jest when you state that McCain has no experience; a bit more homework for you, I'm afraid. Your blind faith in Obama suggests you know nothing of this man or his past. Of course this is excusable because the left wing media mafia has told you nothing about him, why? Why, he is their candidate. Had they reported on Obama in a similar fashion to the hatchet job the did on Palin, they know that no reasonable person in their right mind would give him their vote.
I guess it's good that he isn't campaigning in Canada then. I'd also like to point out that he enjoys a 75-80% approval rating worldwide, so you are in the minority.
This approval rating you mention.....What exactly is is based on???
75 to 80% worldwide? Pretty impressive numbers. However, he's not running worldwide. The numbers are not really a surprise given the leftist bent of most other countries in the developed world. But when one looks at the European Union, most if not all the countries under that flag, are welfare states, cradle to grave government handouts, massively high taxes, $8.00 a gallon gas plus a multitude of other things too numerous to mention and all paid for by big government through very, very high taxes. In other socialism. I seriously doubt that most of the American people would opt for a European style welfare state. If Obama is elected, that's exactly what they'll get. Can you imagine what it would be like if the Democrats win the White House and the congress? The most liberal president in your history AND the most liberal Democrats of all time and through in the compliant lefty media. I shudder to think of where your great country would go; I don't think it would be a pretty sight.
True, he's not running worldwide (unfortunately). I was making that point because you are a foreign citizen. Also, many people I've talked to have said they wouldn't mind paying higher taxes if they got free healthcare and quality education in return. Plus, citing higher gas prices in Europe is kind of irrelevant because they enjoy a much more advanced public transportation infrastructure. I wouldn't care if gas was $8/gallon if I had a good metrorail system...
I voted for Obama. However, I find it appalling that Alter shows so much concern for racism, but shows no concern for the rights of gays, given his endorsement of Nunn to be Vice President. Alter even had the gall to say Obama would show courage to stand up to gays by picking Nunn. Alter should show concern for all oppressed minority groups. Gays are subject to the death penalty in many countries, such as Iran.
What an exciting campaign. Can McCain pull it off? Against all odds. In the face of ferocious press ridicule. After being heavily outspent. Can he do it? Oh, boy what an amazing comeback that would be. But wait....What will the Europeans think? Can you imagine the headlines in Paris and Berlin. The Europeans won't like it. No. And the Syrians. Oh no. They won't be happy. Neither will the Iranians. No they won't. Can we really take the chance of disappointing them? We can't. And Hugo Chavez. Oh boy. Can you imagine how would feel if McCain won? Oh boy.
I seriously can't wait until I can turn on the news without be subjected to McCain babbling nonsense to "his friends" or Palin's screechy and untrue rants. Hello, Tuesday!!
A McCain victory will be accompanied by the public suicides of at least three dozen liberal media talking heads and five or six of the house conservatives who play nicely with them in the mainstream sandbox.Several hundred "entertainment personalities" will threaten to discontinue their re-hab and leave for Canada or Europe or wherever. A media cleansed of its Obama groupies.Sounds wonderful and I am truly looking forward to it.
Blaming the media for our nation's reasonable response to the tragedy that has been the most recent Republican administration is funny.
Arab states in the Middle East are all yelling ... " GO OBAMA...OUR MUSLIM BROTHER "...thats scary !!
Wow, get a life.
Wow...you have a brain " denmill ". African Americans don't need a radical left-wing nutbar in Barack Hussein Obama to promote the cause of equality. Barack did not even bother attending the memorial commemorating the death of Martin Luther King earlier this year. Hillary Clinton did and so did John McCain. Obama is about himself. I hate this guy ...not because he's black ...its because Obama is a dishonourable and a disengenuis man.
I would vote for a black person for President ...no problem ..like someone like Tiger Woods...he's an excellent role model for African Americans and for all Americans....Obama is just downright creepy !!
If Obama loses it will be becuase of his lack of experience, not his race.
Republicans, however, have to let the gay rights issue go. Can you believe there are still ballot issues regarding this? The republicnas have successfully used gay marriage as a pretext to ensure tax paying gay couples are deprived of the same benefits as their straight counterparts. In a world of terrorists, war, and a sagging economy, who gives a damn if a tax paying couple wants the law to regognize them as more than strangers? In a world of hate, what's the big deal if people find love? Nobody is going to force a straight person to enter a union with a gay person. With all of the abused and murdered foster and adopted children at the hands of straight couples, why shouldn't gay couples be allowed to provide a loving home?
Small government, tax policy, striving towards independence, strong defense, are all great republicans ideas. However, its time for them to get government out of our bedrooms.
I am black and I am saying that i will not be voting for the invented harlequin Obama and his trickle up poverty rhetorics. I sencerely believe that if he win it is because he is black "Affirmative action". No white man would be allowed to stay in the race if they invite a KKK man to their house even to save the life of that KKK man. Yet the lefstist media collueage of Jonathan Alter, have given him a free pass for fear of being call racism and to be politically correct. Time after time the leftist media has ignored the con Obama's association (Racist pastor (sat on his pew for 20 years, baptized his 2 kids, officiated his wedding ceremony), racist priest (donated taxpayers monies in the form of porks), terrorist friends (Ayers & wife, Khadlil PLO (party with them , live in the same area)), Hey great Americans, we may also consider to stop our contracts with other leftist newspaers and/ magazines such as newwsweek, newyork Times. NM Daily Sun to say the list. The minute we hurt their pocket they will use their common senses and work again for us. Don't you ever forget that without you they don't exist. We pay their salary, thus they need to work for us, not for the corrupted politicians.
So what if Mc Cain won? Jonathan you and your leftist friends in the media are so naive. You have tried to talk for the public so many times and the American people have made their own mind over and over. Remember September 11, everyone was united. November 4th will be the same, everyone will be united behindJohn Mc Cain the only true American Hero. We all know that Mc Cain is not Bush. But guess what the majority of American would rather take another 4 years of bush who inspite of everything do loves his country. Hugo Chavez did promised change to the people of venezuela, guess what! they did have change all right, persecution and even death for criticizing the government, Tv station and radio station closed. Monopoly of the government, the so call richs had to give everything they had to the masses nd many had to fleed the country. This change is no different than Obama changes. Obama is not even the president but his tape with the LA Times is not being released by the New York times. By the way, I am calling for the true americans to sto their subcripsion of the LA Times indefinitely if the tapes are not released over the weekend. newspaers should be on the soide of the people, not to cover-up for corrumpt politician. If people want to know the change that Obama wants to bring to the US, don't go far "Read his books as preview and read about the changes brought by Hugo Chavez in Venezuela for the main chapters". Americans will not be con by Barack Hussein Obama and his assistants "the leftist media which Jonathan is a part of". Believe me is would not be the end of the US, because we the people will go on the attack and take our Country back from those vermins. By the way I am black and I know many black people that cannot say that they will be voting for Mc Cain due to fear of being attacked. Our voices will be loud and clear in the pool booths Mc Cain, Mc Cain, Mc Cain...........................................................

Okay, you put out all these accusations Mr. Maple Leaf, now why don't you stick your cannuck neck out and prove what you wrote, and while you're at it, check out McCain's 1998 & 99 tax returns. almost 750,000,00. given to a group founded by Khalidi. Or go to youtube and search McCain and Acorn and you can watch the keynote speech he gave at an Acorn convention. Go if you dareeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
McCain???s complaints about the candidate???s relationship to Khalidi were hypocritical. The Arizona senator had chaired a group ??? the International Republican Institute ??? which funded a Palestinian Research group founded by Khalidi.
McCain is a waste of skin. He is the most dishonest, evil, lying POS I have ever seen in my life. And no billtill, I'm not a paid blogger. Just an honest, hardworking American who dares to want the same for my president. that certainly isn't McCadaver.
An Obama "victory" should be the END of the American WHITES and of their CIVILISATION.This African is an ANTI-WHITES RACIST who HIDES his HATE behind beautiful BRAINWASHING WORDS ("CAHNGE" the "American DREAM" into NIGHTMARE),a GLOBALIST DEADLY SNAKE. The Concerned Canadian is RIGHT.
If the GLOBALISTS "win",for America it;s Apocalypse Now.but an ANTI-GLOBALIST ,a WHITES' one !
"If you let me write $200 billion a year in hot checks, I'll give you an illusion of prosperity too," said Lloyd Bentsen describing Reagan's economic policies. The republican irresponsible 'cut taxes' mantra, annual deficit spending, and 'borrow and spend' philosophy has brought this nation to the verge of bankruptcy. They choose to ignore the ten trillion in national debt to the Chinese, Saudis, and others. Taxes have to be paid and responsible adults understand this. Irresponsible people don't.
That would be true except for the fact that US Treasury Bonds are the closest thing there is to a riskless investment. That is because you can always get your money back, and the US has always paid them back. China loans money to the US because it believes it will get its money back. If it didn't, it wouldn't. You claim that we are prospering on borrowed money is wrong. Our economy is what makes us prosperous.

You may have had a chance to see a video in which Sean Hannity of Fox News tries to paint Senator Barack Obama as anti-Israel on the grounds that he knows Prof. Rashid Khalidi, currently the Director of the Middle East Institute at Columbia University.
Here are a few things that Hannity hides from us in this video:
Hannity does not tell us that the ???Arab organization??? that Khalidi founded is the Arab American Action Network, which was established to provide economic and social support to Arab immigrants in Chicago. He does not want us to know that the organization works with the Illinois Department of Human Services and its case managers to provide interpretation services specifically intended for Arab-Americans in Chicago who receive public benefits.
Hannity does not tell us that the Woods Fund for which Obama was a director provided funding to the Arab American Action Network in order for it to help the struggling Arab immigrant community in Chicago, and that the Arab American Action Network is one of hundreds of organizations which the Woods Fund supports. The organizations supported are as diverse as the Chicago community, and they include the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs, an organization that is ???dedicated to combating poverty, racism, and anti-Semitism.??? Read more about organizations supported by the Woods Fund.
Hannity does not tell us that Khalidi and Obama were both professors at the University Of Chicago, because this might reasonably cause us to suspect that their relationship is one of former co-workers and does not involve any instance in which Obama endorsed or agreed with Khalidi???s views.
Hannity does not tell us that he does not have any evidence to back up his claim that Khalidi used to be a paid employee of the PLO when it was designated a terrorist organization. He says only that Khalidi was ???allegedly??? a member of the PLO. As reported by CBS News, ???Khalidi says he was never employed by the PLO; he has been a harsh critic of Palestinian suicide bombings and a longtime supporter of a two-state solution.???
Hannity does not tell us anything about Daniel Pipes, the man who speaks about Obama in the segment. He does not tell us that Pipes is the subject of controversy over his plans to speak at an event organized by Pastor John Hagee, who said that God sent Hitler to create the Holocaust so the Jews would have to go to Israel. Read Pipes??? statement on the Hagee issue.
In short, Hannity???s segment about Obama and Khalidi is a smear based on fear, not facts. Obama???s incredible success as a candidate, despite this and the many other scurrilous smears that have been flung at him, proves that, as Obama himself has said, Americans are fed up with negative campaigning and ready to use facts, not rumor and innuendo, to choose the best candidate.

The election of Obama will be perceived by American's enemies as a sign of weakness, and national exhaustion. It will invite more hostility, not less. By electing McCain, we will making the statement that America remains the land of the free and of the brave.
Hey you Independents out there! Please DO NOT TAKE josemarti comment lightly! IT'S TRUE! Get out and vote 4 a man with MILITARY EXPERIENCE PLEASE!!!
Independents are not going to come to your rescue. Unlike you, they are turned off by hate, lies and fear and smear campaigns. You just keep pissing them off.
Or the land of the war-mongers and the home of no allies.
An Obama "Victory" should be the END of the American WHITES,of their CIVILIZATION. This ANTI-WHITES AFRICAN is RACIST and hides his HATE behind WORDS about NOTHING (like "CHANGE","American DREAM" turned to NIGHTMARE ! etc). This guy and his lib-dem team are DEADLY DANGEROUS for the NAIVE American WHITES,who still believe in beautiful BRAINWASHING WORDS. McCain or Apocalypse now!
