Powell endorsement incites right-wing rage

It IS about race. Colin Powell's endorsement of a guy who wants to "spread the wealth", (because he doesn't have a clue how to create jobs), is proof. Obama's divided this country

through race and class warfare. The middle class needs good-paying jobs, but Obama doesn't have a clue how to get them. He thinks welfare, more spending and higher taxes is going to help our economy...give me a break. Wake up before its too late.

Huge Obama crowd in Missouri

Obama sure seems to attract a lot of low-class, mean-spirited supporters...so what does that say about him? Reading these

posts just reinforces my decision to vote for Mccain.

Dissecting Cindy McCain's private world

Obama and his surrogates really stooped low this time. I guess

they're so desperate to distract the media from Ayres, Wright, ACORN, etc., they'll go after anybody.

Boss and Billy

I don't put a whole lot of weight into what candidate Boss and Billy, or any entertainers/limousine liberals, are for...

I'm not rich enough to be a liberal, I prefer low taxes and less spending.

This time McCain shows up fo "Letterman"

McCain was really funny, very good, on Letterman, even though Dave tried his hardest to trip him up. Wonder why Letterman

didn't press the issue about Obama's latest comment, "spreading

the wealth" ?? Do Americans really want to change the whole government over to Marxism? That's like biting off your nose to spite your face. Maybe its gone right over most Americans heads... wouldn't surprise me.

Banking on early votes for Barack

Of course Obama stands to gain the most from early voting.

If another "red flag" (Ayers,Wright,Joe the Plumber, etc.)

pops up before election day, he still has the early votes; those people won't be able to change their minds.

Plus, all those 18 and 19-year olds who adore him, but aren't exactly reliable, can vote early, in case there's a party the night before the election. How convenient, Obama's thought of

everything hasn't he? He's had plenty of time, seeing how he's spent most of his life thinking about being president.

Did anyone really yell "kill him"

Of course no said that. This was contrived by the Obama campaign. They're extremely manipulative and they've been pulling this stuff all along. Most people can see through it.

Original article: McCain loses again

Joe the Plumber

Obama's conversation with Joe the Plumber should be another red

flag for Americans. Taking into consideration that Obama's major in college was political science, the fact that he used

the term "spread the wealth" should be taken very seriously,

it was not a mis-statement, he knew what he was saying. Obama

is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Obama ad hits McCain

what about Obama's arrogant, smug looks that everyone saw on TV? Doesn't he realize we saw this on the split screen, while McCain was speaking?

Thursday, October 16, 2008 09:25 AM
Original article: McCain goes positive, maybe

McCain goes positive

Obama lied to Americans on live TV last night when he said 100% of McCains ads have been negative. Its been confirmed this is a flat-out lie, by Obama. Obama is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He's a whiner, too.

Original article: Polls: Obama wins again

Polls

Most independent voters interviewed after the debate are leaning toward McCain. Obama is so full of B.S... Joe the

Plumber knows it; maybe Americans will listen to Joe the Plumber. They certainly can't see past Obama's "silver tongue".

Wednesday, October 15, 2008 07:48 PM

McCain

McCain did very well. He doesn't have a silver tongue like Obama, but Who Cares??? The smooth talkers are the ones to

be distrusted the most. McCain made the case very well that

Obama's tax and spend policies are going to break this country.

McCain made a very good point when they were discussing education: its very true that throwing money at schools doesn't necessarily improve them. Its a fact that many of the

schools spending the highest amount of dollars-per-student, are the worst schools.

Obama's spent an OBSCENE amount of money, donated by people who probably couldn't afford it.

McCain doesn't look angry at all. He's been very cool.

Wednesday, October 15, 2008 07:14 PM

Liveblogging:

McCain is doing pretty well. He stuck it to Obama when he point-blank said: "I'm not George Bush, so stop bringing up George Bush. If you prefer to debate George Bush, go ahead"

Obama leads by 14 in new NYT/CBS poll

PRESIDENTS DON'T CREATE JOBS; CEO's DO. Its obvious to me that Obama's advisors with their political and academic backgrounds don't understand what drives economic growth. Increasing corporate taxes and capital gains taxes will work Against growth. Obama's not walking the talk: He says he's going to create jobs, but then he says he's going to raise corporate taxes and capital gains taxes. Make up your mind Obama, you're

"playing" us. I suggest that before Any candidate raises American's taxes, it would be prudent to clean up your own house, first. Eliminate federal programs that are wasting taxpayers' money, such as ACORN, which is proven to be fraudulent, they endorsed Obama, but all the taxpayers money is helping them. Simplify the tax plan so that Everyone pays

their "fair" share of taxes. Yes, I have been Democrat all my life, but I'm also a businessperson who understands how

many, many small businesses make $250,000 and their taxes will

be increased under Obama's plan. Obama's plan will Put people

Out of Business. That won't help the economy. We don't need

Welfare, we need Jobs.

McCain: the risky choice for president

A vote for Obama is a vote to bring Welfare back. Do Americans

really want to do this? Clinton got rid of welfare, and now

we're going Backwards, and are bringing it back? Obama's refundable tax credits are nothing but welfare, his comment

"spread the wealth" is nothing but welfare. I hope people wake

up, Soon. If this is what he means by change, we cannot afford

to do this. (Maybe this is why Bill Clinton dislikes Obama so much?)

behind the GOP's voter fraud hysteria

There's no benefit in ignoring the fraud that's taking place, and .. Yes, it Is Real. Examples are plentiful in over

14 states and people have testified. ACORN is another example of the federal government wasting taxpayer's dollars. Obama

wants even more programs like this. Clinton got rid of welfare and Obama's bringing it back. He calls it "spreading the wealth."
