The Whoppers of 2008—The Sequel

This election has many facets to it. Most of which the gover't will never resolve or solve. Most of the bad with all that is going on now is a result of your Congress and their lack of doing anything constructive by either party. Politics will never solve abortion, gun contol, social security or medical care. As a matter of fact they shouldn't make it one of their prime issue each election process. Just how many of these elections will we go thru with all of these promises by candiates for congress or president will we go thru and yet they never get solved as promise. The pattern is there and we need to get rid oc all of them and start over! It's become who can buy the office and who is buying the politician running for office! Vote but it is time to vote them all out and start over with people who haven't been bought by special interest groups!

wow. I'm suprised as a born and raised canadian by how much two-faced highschool bashing goes on when we have elections in the U.S. I would think it be easier and more efficent to get votes if they just stated the facts about thier campaignes and how they intend to fix thing. If it's the truth then it be for america to chose the better man but at this point know one knows who the better man cuz all they do is stand up infront of the country and lie about each other. some one please answer me this, why can anyone in the spotlight of fame be spimply truthfull?

OK...peace, I'm leaving now. Can I just say that although I respect EVERY person in here that I am SO glad I don't have to be friends with ALL of you? Wow...from my point of view (and only my own single point of view...so limited), there is a LOT of growth that needs to happen in many of our people across this nation. Yes, it is the U.S.A. to the last person who cap'd that and exclamation-pointed it. Your point? Seriously...see a birth certificate? Holy... But, see, I am excusing myself before I become a jerk. I can only take so much...I am human...excuse me & good luck with those ideas.

You people sure as hell like to take shots at McCain, but give that lying *** Obama a free ride on all his damn lies. Posted by Davra

At the end of the day there really isn't a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. One way or the other someone is going to get screwed and in past experiences it is always the working class that makes too much for assistance but not enough to pay the bills so I really don't care who gets in. Both parties are trying to make themselves better then the next. In reality they are both the same!!!!

You people are sure as hell promoting Barack Obama. "Read his lies in the New York Times on 10-31-2008. "A LETTER TO BARACI OBAMA' This person has consistently lied to the American people and you *** cover for him. Davra

I feel the same as "Swiss Girl". The author, Viveca Novak, has made some claims that are not true about the candidates. She has taken things out of context. She obviously has some kind of agenda!

What joe Biden says that Obama is going to do about taxes is he said she said. Watch the debates, watch the speecehs. In no way is Joe Biden an authority for update especially when it comes to taxing. From the beginning Obama has said, he will give tax breaks to those who make less than 250,000. Joe who is a plumber, does not make this much, He makes more so his taxes will increase.What update is there? Biden is running for v.p. not president, essentially he will not be an authority all he will do is support the decisions of the the president and in cases of a tie cast a vote. This is all a v.p. nominee can do, they have no power. Palin thinks she will have decision making abilities, is this constitutional?No. clearly she does not know the job of a v.p. nominee. Watch the debates.

By allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire in 2010 Obama would indeed raise taxes on all those who make $42,000. dollars or more. He has stated time and time again that he would allow them to expire--that is raising taxes on all those who make over 42,000. Secondly, giving money to those who have not earned it is welfare. Providing tax credits to those who have earned the income necessary to pay taxes is far different from giving money back to those who pay NO taxes. Thirdly, the economic problem were brought on by Congress encouraging and then forcing banks to lend to those who are not good credit risks. The bill first came during Carter's admin, was made tougher during Clinton's admin, and was fought to a standstill during Bush's admin--can you imagine the hullabaloo that would have been raised against Bush if he had successfully eliminated a progrm to deny housing loans to low income minority persons.

Re: the both--nay, the four of them. They're politicians. They lie. They're as alike as peas in a can.
No man or woman can rise to their respective positions in the GOP or Democratic party unless they are personable wheeling, dealing, stealing liars.
Eisenhower, who dropped into the top slot by virtue of his military career, was the last pol the the people could believe. could

Nobody knows Obama and Aryes personally here, so why are you prentending like you know? You only heard lies from McCain. This here, is the most accurate article most people reading this are going to see. I seen for myself that Aryes is on the faculty list of the University of Illinois at Chicago, and you can probably check other stuff too. So get over it.

It's very true that staying in your own little circle prevents a lot of the growth people are capable of. This leads me to make a positive statement about America - really only in certain areas are people in such a time capsule of understimulation, largely America is very diversified and even when we encounter face offs and difficulties, we are in the growing process. I say this in comparison to many other countries that frequently have only one race, religious group, etc. - we don't hear about them having racism and secular issues because they are completely homogenous, but truthfully in this lifestyle they are far more closeminded because of the complete lack of exposure. So don't shun America too much: we have problems but they are in motion, not just fermenting slowly.

you might well dis cuss something because there has never ever been 300millon or more early voters in the history of america when you look at the new and see the images of the polls and the people that are in these lines whoooo do you think they are voting for im sorry mcain is a natural born killer remeber hes a solderdo you no our secret real moto and instinct shoot ask later!!!!!!!!!! so he will never ever negotiate with no one
