People need to support Obama just because of the last eight years alone. Has'nt it been enought damage. Oil prices, loss jobs to overseas, home foreclosers, Katrina, the Iraq war etc. Since day 1 of the bush administration , things have gone down hill. Do you McCain supporters really think, that he ( MCCain ) could change anything, he's just like Bush.

I don't think he was being condescending or rude to Timmons, but I have felt that way about things he has said in the past. Yes, the President, the Senate, and the House have to be willing to compromise to get things done--and not take vacation in lieu of!!!!

Did you vote for George W. Bush? I guess if you like his politics then I' am sure you will vote for McBush, oh I meant McCain. Bush, Cheney, McCain are all the same. Didn't Bush when he debated with John Kerry indicated that Kerry spent his life time in politics and did nothing to aid in helping our dependency against foreign oil, and then call him a flip floppy. It appears that eight years later, the Bush admin, has done nothing either, but McCain who has been in politics before time now has a great plan. It sounds like the same old politics McCain is supporting, small government, be for real, more pork barrel money ever spent by a administration. Cut taxes, sure...why not, we have money in reserve to pay for the war. By the way, we did trust the Bush admin, right. When a bunch of hypercritics win office, I guess we deserve what we get and when narrow minded people do not look at the real issues, then we get a narrow minded President. By the way flip flop-mostly is used by the person who does it in my opinon, and McCain sounds like Bush. Oh, by the way wasn't it kind of odd that McCain was not in the building when Obama was answering the questions during the Saddle Light forum, it did appear he knew the answers. A very honest man that McCain, insinuating that he was in a silent room. How honest was that statement before a room full of Christians. Wow..you judge. If the majority of Narrow minded people vote, then we will get a narrow minded President. Did you vote for George W. Bush? I guess if you like his politics then I' am sure you will vote for McBush, oh I meant McCain. Bush, Cheney, McCain are all the same. Didn't Bush when he debated with John Kerry indicated that Kerry spent his life time in politics and did nothing to aid in helping our dependency against foreign oil, and then call him a flip floppy.
