to: the world outside the us

from: democrats stuck in this bush-made mess

please help us do WHATEVER IT TAKES to help barack obama get into office. a huge portion of us (51% apparently) never voted for bush EITHER time he got into office - and as politics here have surpassed the scandalous level...about 8 years ago - WE'RE IN A STATE OF SHOCK AND DISBELIEF, and seemingly powerless. i have faith (the non-organized religion type) that those 51% are growing, and that the election will set it right - FINALLY.

BUT, if not...THEN we 51% will GO COMPLETELY MAD, and BEG THE UN, and the ENTIRE FREE WORLD to PLEASE HELP US by declaring the republican ticket unable to serve for reasons of insanity (x2) as well as the inability to multitask (x2) combined with the fact that THEY HAVE NO ECONOMIC PLAN...NONE, firmly removing them from office, point out the severely problematic voting system, and kindly situate mr. obama and mr. biden into the oval office so they can GET SOME WORK DONE! they have a HUGE task in front of them, and they're "playing it" (as is necessary in us politics) the best way they can ...problem being some voters have their heads up their backsides/consider the war in iraq more important than the US-World economic crisis/consider drilling anywhere and everywhere for oil the answer to said economic crisis/have surprisingly and very suddenly "opened" their "family values" to include pre-marital pregnancy and adultery/are worried about getting away from our "let the free market take care of everything" economic policy...worried apparently that they will be mired in expensive social programs that (god forbid) HELP PEOPLE here in the US (they refrain from worrying about any expenzive war activities...PLEASE TELL ME WHY ??) - and seemingly have NO IDEA there is a global environmental crisis going on (even if, god forbid, widespread famine begins these people will still deny any environmental crisis and maintain it's a natural earth cycle - they don't like science, these people... think scientists are making it up for profit. let me restate: PLEASE HELP US!)

The economy survived for eight years it can survive for a couple more weeks for the debate. id rather know what each candidate plans to do about the economy and pick which plan iagree with more and vote for them. i cant very well do that if there are no debates.

So the debate went ahead after all,and watching here in South Africa the build up to the debate and the actual debate itself the John Mccain ploy became oh so obvious "Led by hero Mccain a group of maverick republicans demanded conditions on the bailout,then hero Mccain just in time makes debate"The debate was on Friday we are still here on Monday with no "bailout agreed yet" and from all that i have seen here many people from all sides have contributed to the final draught,there was even one senior Republican who on air said " we could have done without the Presidential Politics in this Affair " couldnt be clearer than that John Mccain could it,but then your bunch of buddies are fighting for their lives to keep their jobs arent they,desperate people,desperate measures,i was unsure about Sarah Palin but over the weekend i saw her on a show with a woman interviewer who asked her about the "bailout plan ' and its necessity "WOW" i could not believe it she threw her arms around and came out with the biggest load of nonsense you ever heard and then said "Oh Yeah its about job creation too "on some comedy show later a woman imitated her perfectly 'USING EXACTLY HER OWN WORDS" they didnt even have to twist them for it to be funny,On to the debate it was so blatantly obvious that Mr Obama wanted a proper debate and to highlight the differences in each candidates stance on the various issues,Mr Mccain on the other hand wanted only to try to build up his own so called experience and to try to minimise Mr Obamas there was no debate from his side just "campaign rhetoric" the best part of the debate for me was when Mr Obama said to Mr Mccain "John the Iraq war started in 2003 not 2007 it highlighted fully the problem with the Republicans as a whole " THEY WILL NEVER ADMIT TO MAKING ANY MISTAKES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES" we have all just had 8 years of Mr Bush blaming every body else for the actions of himself and his party but never once saying "we were wrong",Mr Mccain is just more of the same the debate proved it

and so will the next 2 debates what is worrying is the amount of people who still believe in America that these Republicans can still run the country it can only be blind faith and stubborn misguided loyalty that keeps them thinking this way as the track record of the last 8 years speaks for itself,i see after the last week that the polls are indicating that Mr Obama is moving forward and lets hope for the sake of the USA and the World this continues and that Mr Obama wins the election by a land slide the boost of confidence we will all get from this will be huge and the world can start to think you have not all gone mad over in the United States

McCain is just an older and senile version of George and Sarah is Cheney with lipstick and heels (oh, and fashionable glasses-all the better to see what you are shooting at, my dear)

He probably forgot there was a debate.

McCain's an idiot. Grow some balls and stop hiding behind George Bush's bullshit administration.

Democrat of NY 10:33AM September 27, 2008

Everyone can calm down now, McCain has announced he'll be at the debate tonight.

Group hug, group hug!

I'm amazed at how much of a lather many of you folks work yourselves into over a single debate - a single debate in a campaign that's been going on for nearly 2 years. Please, if you don't know where these guys stand on the issues at this point, you haven't been paying attention. A single debate shouldn't make any substantial difference (especially since none of the third-party candidates are participating).

Do you really think there's that much difference between the Republicans & Democrats? Both have proved to be corrupt &/or incompetent. Both have plenty of blame to share for the current mess we're in. If you're restricting your choice to only those 2 parties it seems to me to just be a matter of what flavor you want your poison.

Why don't we, the American public, just cool a minute and see what divelops, instaead of jumping to premature conclusions?

Patience and loyalty sem to be favored qualities!
