He voted for the bailout.

Socialism for the rich and corporations is generally known as fascism or national socialism. He also voted to keep funding the war. Since he and Biden are planning wars in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Georgia and Iran, you can also call him an imperialist.

A less ambitious candidate would be more reasonable like whathisname.

As if we have any choice in the matter.

The Mainstream Media has nothing to o with freedom of speech or the press.

It is corporate propaganda an excludes points of views an stories which are not suitable to their agenda. Constant negative coverage of Palin to the exclusion of covering her actual campaign is infringing upon her freedom of speech by in effect "shouting her down and drowning her out" with such low class an puerile heckling as Salon is known for as of late, yourself included.

The press in this country is about as free an respectable as the press under Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were and those esteemed journalist probably felt just like you that they were actually doing something worthwhile and making a difference.

I don't agree with any of the candidates covered by the MSM, but this is just shameful and disgusting. It is just as seemly as when Charlie Rose, Friedman and Mike Wallace "eulogized" Yassir Arafat as if he were the most evil person in the entire history of the world. Now Palin is evil incarnate to the mainstream media and that is why you have nothing to do with journalism, free press, free speech or facts, just conning manipulating and lying to people and especially not covering things embarrassing or troubling to, or concerning your candidate.

Yeah, Biden and Obama are just perfect and unblemished holy men set to save the USA!

You got no cred.

Newsflash!

You Obama supporters are pretty much the same.

You can never see that.

My dear Irina99,

When I see an Obama commercial I hear, "You are an idiot, Here are some feel good words. Vote for me!"

Not voting for McCain either. Obama insults the voter's intelligence and since they don't realize it, he is right, and that pisses me off something fierce. He has too much teflon.

My dear farnsworth,

SALON!

Obama

Obama will make a fine Republican President.

Promises made will take a backseat to war, Wall Street, NAFTA and the WTO.

We will attack and invade Iran for Israel and we will try to get Georgia to attack Russia for us to keep them off balance and our taxes will rise to pay for the last eight years.

Happy days are here again!

Original article: Obama's winning argument

Well that is a lie.

The internet bubble and the mutual funds went bust during Clinton's last year - shit happens. Don't forget all the savings and loans that went under and the Enron scandal (buried inthe rubble of WTC 7). The U.S. economy is in trouble not because of Republican economic poilicies, but becuase we spent all our money on wars which both parties and the mainstream media sold us on and during the 90s we sold off our manufacturing capabilities and shipped our jobs overseas - go ahead and blame that on the republicans - one more lie woin't make any difference.

I assume you are lying because you are not stupid, right?

In other stunning predictions!

The sun will rise tomorrow morning.

I knew Obama was goig to win when I found out he was a member of the CFR and that ZB was his handler.

McCain is just going through the motions just like Kerry did.

My dear Ms. Traister,

You and Salon are not at all terrified and fightened of a McCain Palin victory are you? So congratulations on being able to muster up enough empathy to report these poor fools demented fears of catastrophe if the other candidate wins.

They are not at all like you and the other Salon writers at all, are they?

(I am being sarcastic - not that you numbnuts know the meaning of the word.)

Original article: Obama's winning argument

My dear wychwood,

"he can't single-handedly do all that crazy stuff, and Congress and the House would hardly cooperate."

I don't know about that. The congress cooperated with Bush on the phony war on terror and two illegal invasions and occupations while allowing our treasury to be looted by pirates and daddy warbucks.

Congress is as cooperative as a cheap whore. You pay, they play.
