		<description>Senator Clinton is right, suspend all federal tax on gas.
Than we can have a toll on every federal highway every 5 miles so we can up keep the roads, and create good paying jobs for woman as toll collector&#039;s so there husbands can sit home and drink shots and chug beer as Hillary does, and the men at home will be ready on day one to change the baby&#039;s diaper.</description>

		<description>And think of what America could look like AFTER Obama is president; AFTER he has helped millions more complete higher ed: an educated populace who can think for themselves, can realize that racism and sexism bring EVERYONE down, and can know that optimism and charity is inspired by leadership and role models. I have great hope for this country...and Obama has ignited it! How sweet it would be if everyone could unite behind this guy, help him sweep the general election against McCain (similar to how Reagan did it versus Mondale in 1984), and hold him accountable for all his words once in office. Now wouldn&#039;t that send a resounding message about the Iraq war and &quot;politics as usual&quot;?! Fire it up, y&#039;all!</description>

		<description>It looks like the DEMS really know HOW to lose.  It could be that it is the party with the most uneducated and vulnerable folks in this world.

Let the Dems give Hillary to the Republicans.  Indeed, the Republicans are really eager for a &quot;fighter&quot; not a uniter.  The Republicans will have no problem opening up their &quot;war chest&quot; against the Clintons.  They will start where the Clintons left off-- the White House items that were stolen and end up with &quot;Bosnia fire.&quot;  Yeah, let Hillary be the nominee for our women in this nation; blacks should work harder, they are not yet ready!</description>

		<description>You said add a comment but when one does so you refuse to post it.  Why?  Is it because it is not in Obama&#039;s favor.  He is not qualified for this job and because you are so bias and hatefull I will soon take my comments to a neutral news station.  I thought you were unbias, obviously, you are as corrupt and bought out as the rest of them.
Hillary 2008!!!!</description>

		<description>Thank you Oregon!!!

At least we have educated voters who know that Barack Obama is the best candidate to bring the real change that the country needs.   We all should know that the gas tax holiday is just a &quot; gimmick &quot; and would cost us 300,000 in lost jobs.

REAL CHANGE IN 2008!!!   

Bush III ( John McCain )  had 118 Washington lobbyists working in key positions in his campaign until he let 5 go this past week,  he has only 113 more to get rid of.  Voted against equal pay for women,  against Roe V.Wade,  has flip flopped on the Bush tax cuts, McCain-Feingold, and numerous other issues.  Within 6 months if he&#039;s elected,  We&#039;ll be in a war with Iran, and we&#039;ll be paying $10.00 a gallon for gas.

The voters of Oregon are TRUE Democrats, and the voters of WV and Kentucky......I&#039;ll let you draw your own conclusions.

		<description>We are true pioneers in Oregon and vote for the person we believe capable of doing the JOB.  I was one of the 67% who voted for Obama.

This country needs change and he is the man who will attempt to do it.
Clinton needs to take her pit-bull teeth out of the election and let us take on the Neo Republicans down NOW!

Give it up girl,

Devoted Democrat</description>

		<description>Of course they think its a bad idea.  The majority have college educations and know a bit about economics.  She can&#039;t pull that stunt on them like she can the uneducated (her words, not mine) voters in KY and W VA.</description>

		<description>Good. People, it&#039;s time to think about green energy. Develope a wind farm in the center of the States. And a solar farm in the west.  This is free &quot;Green Juice&quot; to help power our nation. These fuel prices will only get worse with time. There was only so many dinosaurs in the world to make up this fossil fuel we have now. I have a four year old little girl. It&#039;s time to think about the future now. Before it&#039;s to late.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good. People, it's time to think about green energy. Develope a wind farm in the center of the States. And a solar farm in the west.  This is free "Green Juice" to help power our nation. These fuel prices will only get worse with time. There was only so many dinosaurs in the world to make up this fossil fuel we have now. I have a four year old little girl. It's time to think about the future now. Before it's to late.</p>

		<description>You all cry about someone helping you and when one does have the guts to stand up for you, you suddenly backed off and say &quot;that is not a good idea&quot;.  Yet all of you are crying about gas prices.  I never see a set of dumb idiots in all my life.  You all are so stupid it makes me sick.  At the same time, you said you are well educated.  Doesn&#039;t it make sense to give you idiots a break on gas prices while searching for a permanent solution?  Or you think as usual it is a bad idea because Hillary, a woman brought it up first. You Obamabots are either stupid or you all had been hypnotized and walking around in a daze.  
HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT 2008!!!!</description>

		<description>Thought you people were so educated. If we just put a scare to the oil investers, and start taxing them, that will send them a clear signal and drop the value of  oil. 

But then again, why would you college educated folks want that? You must have investments in oil, you are the very ones reaping off the backs of the hard working folks.</description>

		<description>her support for gas tax holiday isnt a bad idea, people go from one block to another in search for the cheapest gas that will only save them maybe 8 to 10 cents a gallon, but yet her support for gas tax is considered political pandering.</description>

		<description>Of course the idea for a gas tax holiday is foolish.  In most states and federal budgets, the gas tax is specifically earmarked for maintenance and repair of roads.  Where do the politicians think we will get the money for these roads? Continue raiding social security, maybe.  Or perhaps, just close all roads?  The people calling for a gas tax holiday are being penny-wise and dollar-foolish.</description>

		<description>gas tax is a horrible idea.  300,000 jobs lost means atleast 200,000 homes forclosed on.  Answer that question if you still want the gas tax.  That on top of roads not work is the end of the end</description>

On another note.  To ALL the HRC supporters who WILL NOT vote for Obama-then do what you think you need to.  Obama&#039;s future is bright and if you think we will ALL rally around HRC in &#039;2012 you are REALLY uneducated.</description>
