		<description>Ted in Canada, you are wrong.  This is about Obama.  Sadly everything is about Obama.  From what is on his iPod, what he eats for breakfast to his bowling scores.  Sadly, Americans are buying into a test marketed image - everything that is allowed to be seen from this man and his wife is strictly scripted and well-planned.  There is nothing that comes out of their mouths that has not been hased over, rehashed over by his advisors who then tell him what to say.  This is why there is no debates between he and McCain right now despite his big words of anytime, anyplace.  Mindless people will not do anything as an individual - they have to feel like they are &quot;in&quot;, &quot;with it,&quot; &quot;keeping up with the Jones.&quot;</description>

		<description>Mccain may be reshuffling his staff but he&#039;s spending more time flying the airways to look presidential then to actually campaign to be president, nor has he said one word that makes any sense about the economy, jobs, or gasoline prices. what&#039;s his policy ? To complain about obama and hope for the best,  it seems as though he doesn&#039;t have one unless it&#039;s to fight a war that nobody wants.</description>

		<description>From Canada 
Hard to see how anybody would vote for the Republicans after 8 years of disaster. 
This is not about Obama or McCain! 
Would American&#039;s really vote for four more years? WOW! 

For those of you voting Republican this time around, can we humbly ask that you not visit Canada in the near future? THANKS

We have a rule about &quot;stupid&quot; people coming into our country and if the Republicans do win, WE ARE BUILDING A BORDER WALL .

CNN you need to undertake a poll about the relative intelligence of Republicans against the general population. I think you will find &quot;the&quot; problem?</description>

		<description>I recently read that the Obama plans to add to a 300 billion package aid to the poor countries giving the United Nations total control an amount equal to 845 billion dollars.  People what is wrong with our country we are in spending high prices at the gas pump, at the grocery stores and pay deceases.  People are losing jobs in this country, we are in a recession and they want to give 845 billion to help poor countries.  That simply means our taxes are going up 2,000 per household.  American need health care in this country, put the money in a new health care plan.  No one will look out for American,  this government will not change, it will remain the same.</description>

		<description>IN RESCUE:  AN OFFER FOR OUR TROOPS

Both our pesidential candidates are being accused of &#039;Flip-Flopping&#039; yet, in comparison, here&#039;s what we have:

OBAMA&#039;S &#039;WAH-WAH&#039; RESPONSE TO PULLING THE TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ.
Cry-baby, Barack Hussein Obama is blaming the heat of the press on the McCain&#039;s camp in accusing AND exposing him of &#039;Flip-flopping.  Simply, Obama utilizes flip-flop ethics because he doesn&#039;t know what he&#039;s talking about, which shows, as a presidential candidate, does not conclude effectively on issues before speaking.  Wholeheartedly, I AGREE with McCain on NOT pulling troops until the job is done.  Obama does not have a clue re diplomacy.

REASON:  IF Obama makes the presidency, and pulls out &#039;Two (2) brigades a month&#039; (as he NOW claims), would hurt our already shortage of troops.  This un-wise move would also paint Americans as distrustful, cowards, bailers, flip-floppers, and a Country which goes back on its words.  

America&#039;s commanding officers have been working so hard at gaining the trust of foreign-land villagers towards counterinsurgency; but, as these natives claim:  &quot;If we help fight our own battles, the Talibans (and such terrorist groups) would only come back after the Americans leave&quot; ... which makes perfect sense.  Thus, pulling our troops out would only prove their distrust, as well as leave them to their own demise.  American doesn&#039;t need a punk, but a strong president to lead the Home of The Brave.

SOLUTION TO TROOP SHORTAGE.
Pull the petty criminals out of jails across America and rehabilitate them; then make prison life for the hardened criminals ever harder.  For example:  Cable TV would become an &#039;earned&#039; privilege only.  

Please hear me out ...

--  In teaching the petty crook pride in his/her country, would also bring pride in themselves.  In turn, he or she would (most likely) develop self-confidence in becoming productive American citizens;  

--  In serving his/her Country effectively &amp; proudly, petty criminals&#039; records would become expunged up to the age of 21;

--  At the end-term of serving his/her Country effectively &amp; proudly, 80% of military benefits will be awared to &#039;war heros&#039;, and all other petty criminals will be eligible up to 30% to 50% in military benefits (depending on lenghth of service);

--  In lieu of killed in action, at least 25% of veteran payments will be awarded to spouse/children; and,

--  Relief by these petty criminals &#039;in number&#039; (once conditioned &amp; trained for battle), would allow a 2-month rest for our all ready over-extended, over-exhausted troops.

Yes, it is a Law that those with criminals records cannot serve in U.S. armed forces, however, our elected President, with the backing of &#039;We The People&#039;, could push this onto  Congress -- with as much urgency as Barack Hussein Obama was pushed upon the American public.  As a whole, WE COULD DO THIS!!!  We can have this Law, which protects the petty criminal from serving his/her country, Amended.

THINK ABOUT THIS:  Many petty criminals commit crimes so they don&#039;t have to serve their country.  Many see &#039;jail&#039; as 3 square meals a day, cable TV, computer fun, exercise equipment work outs, etc; yet, AMERICA CRIES FOR ADDITIONAL MAN/WOMAN POWER AND OUR TROOPS NEED HELP ASAP!!!  ... SO LETS PUT THESE PETTY CRIMINALS TO WORK IN SERVING THEIR COUNTRY.  Together, we CAN get this criminal &#039;protection&#039; Bill Amended.  &quot;VOTE MCCAIN&quot;.

		<description>ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!  ...and CNN continues to spin favorably about skunk in a suit Obama, no matter HOW DISMAL the polls are - good thing because I don&#039;t think I could STAND IT if skunk in a suit was 30 points ahead as he should be at this point in time (even DUKAKIS was further ahead) considering the sorry mess we have in office now.....All Obama All the Time newscasters (and I use that term loosely when describing CNN = Obama, NOT Politics!!!!!) continue to spin, spin, spin........GASP!!!!!!!!  Our hero is AHEAD in Connnecticut!!!!!!  OMG, someone get Jack Cafferty smelling salts - I believe the man has fainted out of sheer happiness that his God is ahead in a state where even Barbara Bush would vote Democratic if she lived there!!!!!!!!

You know WHY all we hear about skunk in a suit is trivia????????  Because that&#039;s ALL he is!  LOL - a supposedly news station lets us know what TUNES he has on his Ipod, gushes over the fact that he wears a helmet while riding a bicycle, ruminates endlessly over the ghetto fist bump a.k.a. - LOL - &quot;dap&quot; with ugly vampire bat Jackie-wanna-be Michelle (I hope Charm School tells Michelle to LOSE the Jackie look - it&#039;s a travesty)

Sigh.......if only Obama grew a pair as big as his wife the bat&#039;s, there would be REAL political news - if for example he took up McCain&#039;s challenge for town hall meetings - OH!  But, um, uh, Hillary, um, uh, won&#039;t be, um, there, uh, um, for Bam Bam to, um, uh, agree, um, with, and WHAT WOULD HE DO WITHOUT A WRITTEN SPEECH ON THE TELEPROMPTER???????????  YOU are all RACISTS for even SUGGESTING that he think on his feet!!!!!  HOW DARE YOU?????  HE IS KING of ALL 57 (ROFLMAO!!!!!!!) states!!!!!!!  Howard the Scream, Nancy the Crow, Frankenstein Jack, Oprah the Dancing Hippo, and Ted the Killer have proclaimed it, so therefore, it&#039;s a FACT

Too bad &quot;Selected Not Elected&quot; Obama&#039;s balls aren&#039;t as big as his wife&#039;s - or his flappy ears - he skulks around like the snake he is - hiding from debate unless he has his pillow, and you are OBVIOUSLY RACIST if you don&#039;t provide it - OF COURSE!  EVERYTHING is a racist plot - all White people ever DO is sit around and think of things like inventing AIDS just so we can bring down the noble Black man  (I was immersed in the Black culture for three years, and I know how they interpret things............)

He IS, however, VERY GOOD at, um, ch-ch-ch-CHANGES

He changes as consistently as the wind does  :)

		<description>Hey Obama makes one sick.  He goes around shooting off his mouth about taking care of the soldiers, but when the day of voting for the soldiers is here, guess who is awol.  Yes, he missed the 2008 Defense Authorization Vote.  Isn&#039;t he a piece of work?

Like I&#039;ve said before and will again, he is all cotton candy speeches, a lot of candy but no substance.

We deserve a change but not his brand of change.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey Obama makes one sick.  He goes around shooting off his mouth about taking care of the soldiers, but when the day of voting for the soldiers is here, guess who is awol.  Yes, he missed the 2008 Defense Authorization Vote.  Isn't he a piece of work?</p>

		<description>nice to see Senator Warner suggest 55 mph; but his savings, millions barrels/day, is definately low; the last time Nixon put this in place, we saved 3 million barrels/per day; whatever, Bush is not one to pull the trigger on this one anytime soon; but give him a reason to take a swipe at Iran, this boy grabs the bat..</description>

		<description>John McCain is still fighting the so-called &quot;war on drugs.&quot;  This is the past ... some successes  but overall not a real &quot;war.&quot;

   I wish he would look at the present and head for the future:  People are concerned about the high cost of fuel, the increase costs of food, health care, and the cost of war... and keeping a job.
 
   Others, those not struggling with survival, note the skyrocketing deficit, the balance of payments, and the housing market as an indicator of a recession (we&#039;re in one) ...  and the chances of heading into a major recession .

    Some people have the luxury of being so secure they think that gary marriage, abortion and the war on drugs and wearing a flag pin (McCain doesn&#039;t) are at the top of the list ....  for most of us - NOT!</description>
