  • Obama's speech

    [Read the article: Was Obama's speech enough?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    His speech was enough for the media of Chris Mathew's who has something running up his leg. It was enough for Keith Olberman who loves him. It was enough for cnn, Wolfe and Jack Cafferty. Anderson cooper is giving him one hour and Larry King is hosting him tomorrow. The media has lost its mind and objective. Hopefully the American public will begin to see Barack Hussein Obama for what he really is. A liar who has a gift of speech and manipulation of his words. Ferraro was dumped because she spoke the truth, howeve Obama and his radical preacher apear to be folk heros. I believe a lot of Hillary supporters will not vote or vote for McCain and that will be the downfall of this country.

  • grandmother

    Obama's remarks about his grandmother exemplifies his dislike for white people and he blames her for all the white transgresions. I am a grandmother and if he were my grandson and the circumstances were the same, I would tell him to go back to Africa or Kenya. How strange he doesn't liken any of his muslim realitives in a negative light. I don't get the press, his speech was full of undertones of his anger and dislike for white america. Look at the wife's facial expressions (anger). Just what is his message, he has no experience; the media is looking through past records of Hillary to find something they can exploit to prove she has no experience. This is a racial/gender race. If Obama becomes the nominee, I will not vote or vote for the republican as much as I fear him in the whitehouse. You need to spend a little more time on a positive note towards the woman running

  • Obama and the GOP

    if Obama is the democratic nominee, I will vote for Ralph Nader because to put an old fart who believes in war would be even more disastrous. As for Hillary, what negative has not been said a thousand times in the past year. The gop can swift boat her to their hearts content because we have heard it all before. It is time for all the cigar smoking, wife cheating, drinking men in this country to just take a break from the political life and golf or what ever they dol when they aren't with some woman other than their wife. As least Hillary is not visiting prostitutes.

  • Democratic primary system

    [Read the article: The Democrats' anti-momentum]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    This election should be a wake up call the Howard Dean that the system is far too complicated for the average voter. It takes a degree in calculas to figure it out. The republicans have made it simple and it is time for the democratics to get smart and do the same. The media has the love affair with Obama; his name is said ten times to one of Hillary. The male dominate are spending time focusing on what Hillary did in the ninties. No mention of Obama's record since he move up the ladder in Illinois and the senate. I for one have turned off the news channels because of their pimping the Obama saga. I hope Hillary takes it all the way to the convention. If Barack Hussein Obama is the nominee, I will vote for McCain who is just another Bush. It is time to recognize Florida and Michigan

  • keeping up with the jones

    [Read the article: The parent trap]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I am a grandmother, I have a degree in psychology. I watched my daughter put herself into debt because she had to have the very best for her daughters. The solution to you mothers is just don't fall for the marketing blitz. You are not paying for quality, you are paying for the psychologists who design the market commercials to get you to believe you are a bad parent if you do not buy the very best for the child. I did research in college, one product that uses the psychologists is tooth paste. The say the product has been improved, however, the improvement is in the design of the packageing. Fight back, tell the foreign manufacturing no to their inflated prices. What ever happened to carrying the child on the hip. that is why God made us with fat cells on the hips.
