Women Haters

Why can't you write that Hillary no. 1 aide is supporting Mc Cain. Have you already forgotten 9-11. You must have and one day you and the rest of the antiwar, Bush and Chaney haters are going to wake up. You may wake up. and realize what President Busch was doing is to make you safe alone with the other millions of this country. Gov. Palin has more experience than Obomo. But; the different to you and the most of your readers is that she wears a skirt. It is a shame that you and the majority of your readers hate women and to think all of you have Mothers. So...........don't give me that BS about lack of experience. We all know the real reason for trashing Gov. Palin. (Written not edited)

ITS TIME TO GET REAL

WHATS BEEN HAS NOT WORKED,ITS TIME TO FIND A BETTER PATH TO TRAVEL. ALL THAT REALLY MATTER IS THAT WE CHOOSE THE RIGHT PERSON WEATHER HE BE BLACK OR WHITE.BUT WITH OUR COUNTRY WE HAVE A COLOR PROBLEM, AND ALWAYS HAD. EVEN NOW WE ARE GOING THRU HARD TIME ,BUT AMERICAN DURING THE ELECTION STILL SUFFING FROM COLOR PROBLEM. HOW MUCH WORSE CAN BLACK MAN DO THAN A WHITE MAN DONE FOR YEARS.WE NEED CHANGE. IN GOD WE TRUST- WHAT DO THAT MEAN. I GUESS IT WAS JUST SOMETHING TO SAY OR JUST SOUND GOOD. WHY DO WE CALL THIS COUNTRY (UNITED STATES) BECAUSE ALL STATES ARE GROOPED TOGATHER.THATS A GOOD REASON.

Choice !

It's no surprise that Republicans are backing away from both of their candidates...McCain is denouncing his association with his own party and Palin is the "embassassment"...she's always been...but now chooses to "bite" the hand that feeds her...or at least dresses her. McCain is becoming the "wicked witch" of the Republicans and Sarah his ..."Snow White"...if God forbid they do get into the White House...I'm looking forward to the seven dwarfs they would appoint to their cabinet. My only fear is that American never learns from its mistakes and the history of the past eight years will only repeat itself...look what disaster was voted into office in the past two elections and the price we've paid for it. Only Disney could have created a better "fantasy" for America. I fear my children and their children for generations to come will become the victims of America's choice for Pesident this election if they vote McCain / Palin. Please "no more " years for the Republican party !

let us pray

i am using this opportunity to invite everyone nomater your religion please pray for america it gave me such a sleeples night everydream i had god reveal good day is just at hand but we must let unity rain from every angle in this country,god bless america.

And so on...

Now that we know what GOP officials have supported the liberal illuminati politicians, let's talk about the left-wing that has crossed over to the right. It's not like one side hasn't gone to another, but still it amazes me that all we talk about is when the lefties get someone from the GOP to cross over.

A politician is a politician is a politician

Their allegiance is like a leaf in the wind, blowing this way and that and going with the flow.

Friendship, ideals, dedication? Such language is not a part of their language.

No matter what candidate or party, if any, you prefer--such jumping of ship by either candidate's supporters is disgusting.

Support for Obama from McCain Advisor

They realized it is over. It was over when he picked Palin. If he had picked Lieberman, he would be a maverick and even in the polls. But he couldn't control the party or it's supporters. 26 years in DC, and no political capitol. Besides that, Palin was the only one who would answer the phone.
