You gotta love this country, everything is GW's fault. Nobody sees the fact everything and I mean was fine until the dems got control of congress. it's been a downhill slide since. the economy was fine until the dems started fixing it, and completely messed it up. Get rid of them and everything will get back on track. The clintons and obama's got power and it just tells me the welfare recipients are tired of eating dogfood.

VOTE REPUBLICAN ALL THE WAY

So McCain has added another 180 on immigration (total to date, 360). First it was "a comprehensive approach". Then, when he ran into trouble with the far right, it became "secure the borders first." Now that he has the nomination and he doesn't think he needs the hate-mongers and racists, its back to "comprehensive solution." Can any of you idiots on the right say "we dun bin suckered"? And can anyone in the rest of the political spectrum still say "straight talk express" with a straight face? What a hypocritical coward this man is!

I am surprised he is advocating his AMNESTY Bill on the "record" before the convention and the election! Difficult to keep his stories straight when you have so many!

Now he claims to be for ALL that he has spent the last several years working against and of course against ALL he has spent the last several years working for in the Senate. Again I believe we have been down this path before with the Bushwacker and Kamnesty Bailey stating what they thought was required to be elected not what they supported. They all want to lead the United States into becoming a Third World Country and we have discussed the reasons many times.

Enforcing our Immigration Laws and Securing National Borders are not partisan, divisive, or polarizing issues! In current polls vast majority of United States Citizens want our Immigration Laws Enforced and our National Borders Secured. Politicians without their own or their Elitist Political “Contributor’s” self serving agenda support their citizens and not their Elitist “Contributors”.

If it comes down to McCain vs. either of the two Dems., we will not have a “dog in this fight” against the invasion of the United States by ILLEGALS. I am finished voting for ”the lesser of two evils”, I have been down that path before with Bush and Kamnesty Bailey. I will continue to support candidates who reflect my views. An option would be to support a third party candidate in an attempt to prevent the United States from becoming a Third World Country.

Senator McCain is a man of integrity.
He would not criticize Rev. Wright even under Hillary's moral pressure.

He respects freedom of speech for everyone.
He fought for freedom of speech and almost died of it.
He understands uttermost what he was fighting for. Hillary had to lie about being in a sniper fire to get a feel for it.

Hillary's self-righteous and it's hilarious to have come from a perpetual liar whose pastor is a child molester.

Let Rev. Wright speak his unpopular mind so our children can speak freely in the future.
Hillary will only lead us into another McCarthyism, in which you must speak only her language.

McCain has lost a long time ago. He doesn't have the support of the core constituency, black americans, asian american, latinos, white women or blue collar men, or the youth. WHo the hell does he have. NO ONE!! HE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO WIN!

John McCain will Lose ..... if he doesn't immediately Support and Enforce ALL Existing Federal Laws that Order Immediate and Swift Deportation of All Illegal Aliens. Americans are fed up with the lack of enforcement of these Federal Laws by Government. Security. Secondly, Illegal Aliens who are caught with stolen identities, social security numbers, or bogus ones, should be immediately placed on a bus for a return trip to Mexico, with no chance of returning or entering again on a 'temporary work permit.' Thirdly, Legislation should be enacted immediately to prohibit expectant women from dropping kids on our soil so that they can Stay in the United States. Both parent and child should be deported Immediately to Mexico at our expense. This is an absurd and ridiculous practice that can Easily be Stopped. There are NO CIVIL RIGHTS for Illegal Aliens in this Country.

Well when the Democrats take control of the White House and Congress, John McGeezer can sit with his gang of 7 Republicans and take whats given to them as the Democrats ram their agenda through the Senate despite the filibuster rule.

The Democrats should force the Republicans to take whatever is on the Democratic agenda by revoking the Senate closure rule like the previous GOP majority threatened.

When the GOP got their way on the apointments they wanted John McGeezer waves the flag of "compromize" which was a complete false description of what actually happened.

As a Brit who's just moved to Vancouver I've always slightly favored the
Clintons and never quite understood the antipathy towards Hillary that exists in
America. But last night's speech was the most depressing I have ever seen.
Filled with pandering to the fear of the outsider, and no sign of vision,
charity or even humanity. She now seems so morally crippled by the desire for
power that it's actually uncomfortable to watch.
If the Clintons somehow manage to win the nomination this way, it will be one of
the most depressing political moments in recent history. Even taking into
account Bush-Kerry.

I hate to be the one that says "I told you so". But I TOLD YOU SO. All you Republicans who voted for GW were wrong, just plain wrong. You were wrong. You voted for the dummy of the century, and he is in the highest office in our land. And what did he do? He trashed the US and everything we stand for. Need some examples--he tortured people, he sat on his hands for 7 minutes while we were being ATTACKED, he did a flyby over New Orleans when thousands of Americans were suffering. He rewarded big businesses for gauging Americans and then hijacked their pensions. And last, but not least...he is solely responsible for gas prices going from under $2.00 to $4.00 and over. Again, I hate to say "I told you so", but I TOLD YOU SO. Those hanging chads were so worth counting. And anyone who laughed at the Dems, can't possibly be laughing now, especially when they drive up to the gas pumps. As Dr. Phil can say "how's that working for ya?”

I'm beginning to believe that whoever becomes president is supposed to be the president. This person will have liabilities, but also some strength.

I hope it will be Barack, but if not McCain. If the next president is McCain, I'm convinced we will go to another war. God will have to help us, because GW has already dragged this country through the mud.

Note to GW: You do not have to stick to your oath and wait until January. The country will not hold you to it. Go hunting, fishing, and bike riding, just go. You have done enough. And for heaven's sake, don't make another decision–you, Karl, and Dick have made enough decisions for us for a lifetime. You will never be forgotten and will always be remembered for the Worst President in Modern History.

No wonder Dick Chaney couldn't find a VP for you. Those guys you interviewed probably took one look at you and said "no way will I be his VP".

Go home George Bush, forever. Leave, we don't need your non-leadership. Oh, and this man wears a flagpin everday–what happened?

PeopleMag: John Edwards doesn't much care for Clinton's "old politics." In their first joint interview since John, the Democratic former senator and 2004 vice presidential nominee, dropped out of the race in January, the couple named what they liked and disliked about each of the remaining Democrats – and Mrs. Edwards didn't hesitate: "I like Hillary's health care plan." What doesn't she like about the senator from New York and former first lady? "The lobbyist money," she adds. On Obama, she says: "The fact that he has motivated so many young people to be involved, I think is fantastic." What doesn't he like about Clinton? "Um, still a lot of the old politics," John Edwards said. As for Obama, he says: "Sometimes I want to see more substance under the rhetoric." But he cited two things he likes about the charismatic young senator from Illinois: "One is, I think he really does want to bring about serious change and a different way of doing things. And secondly, I think it's a great symbolic thing to have an African-American who could be president." Democrats United 08

Just enforce the immigration laws that are on the books and tell those greedy business owners to hire American citizens, there are thousands of veterens who cant find a job. its sad to see how little our business community values the freedom they fight for. If it wernt for those veterens there would be no free market.
