Does anyone care what Cheney has to say? The Bush/Cheney legacy:

1. Close to $10 TRILLION in national debt. Owed to China, Saudis (yes, the home of the 9/11 terrorists) & Dubai.

2. $490 BILLION DEFICIT FOR FISCAL 2009!

3. Lies……..lies……..lies……… so they could attack Iraq, and the oil companies get in there after Saddam had thrown them out!

4. 4100 precious soldiers killed for OIL……. and countless of Iraqi civilians.

5. TORTURE, the Geneva Convention tossed out!

6. Dismissal of Constitutional Rights.

7. Spending …….$1.38…….BILLION…….A……….DAY…….IN IRAQ…….SURE THE SURGE WORKED.

8. 460 THOUSAND JOBS LOST SO FAR THIS YEAR!

9. NOW THEY ARE BAILING OUT FANNY MAE & FREDDY MAC……..WITH TAX PAYER MONEY………..WHILE HARDWORKING AMERICANS FILE BANKRUPTCY BECAUSE OF HIGH MEDICAL BILLS!

10. The average American was earning $61K when Bush/Cheney took office, now its $60K.

ARE YOU BETTER OFF TODAY THAN YOU WERE 8 YEARS AGO?
OUR COUNTRY ISN'T!

ARE YOU BETTER OFF THAN YOU WERE 8 YEARS

It’s lipstick,” Cheney said, laughing. Maybe Cheney and Bush might have thought about applying some of that lipstick to their policies. And for the record and as pitbull owner,my pitbull found Palin statement very insulting……

Dear CNN,

Why was Jeremiah Wright on a constant loop for weeks, but the videos of Sarah Palin's pastor apparently not news? Holy (so to speak) double standard. I mean, I KNOW why, but shouldn't you at least PRETEND you think a candidate's controversial white pastor is just as newsworthy as a candidate's controversial balck pastor?

Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld were the chief architects of the disastrous war that has plunged this country into economic woes.

Dick Cheney destroyed this country because of his greed for Iraqi oil.

He's a Republican who preaches "family values" while he has a lesbian daughter who is "happily" married to her "wife/husband" and they already have a child through that union.

Is this different from tongue-speaking, pentecostal Sarah Palin's pregnant teen daughter?

What is family value?
Family devalued.

thats a lie–its SOS..no change there.its the old man and the bimbo

In the June video reported by CNN today, Gov. Palin said that the war in Iraq is “God’s task” for America and that its "his plan". The cost of the war is catastrophic in terms of human life lost (oh yes, she’s pro-life), damage to the environment (bombs, wreckage, pollution), and our economy (over $2 trillion added to the national debt and our currency devalued). I wonder what war she believes should be next in “God’s plan” for America… Iran? Russia? Clearly, she was a political choice to appease the far right wing of the RNC and does not represent the “Country First” sloganeering of the RNC Convention.

As for Senator McCain the selection of Gov. Palin is a further demonstration that he is willing to abandon his prior policy positions for those of the religious right in a attempt to win an election. So much integrity. Given the damage that has been done to our country by the Republican administration over the past 8 years, if they truly put “Country First”, they would withdraw in shame.

Should the Republican ticket win and Sen. McCain’s health fail, we would find ourselves with a President who believes that war is God’s task for America. Cheney is correct that a McCain-Palin administration would be unlike any other… war, war, war! Think about it!

IT ,,,,,,,,,,,I S,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,A,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,S T A R K,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,C O N T R A S T,,,,,,,,,,,

Barack Obama: law degree magna cum laude from Harvard
Joe Biden: law degree from Syracuse
John McCain: graduated #894 out of 899 from Naval Academy
Sarah Palin: journalism degree from University of Idaho

We need the SMARTEST leaders we can find.

Does anyone with live brain cells actually care what Dick Cheney thinks?

hey dick, it will be like no other, because it is not going to happen.

CNN doesn't "report the news" — they CENSOR it.

Just try to write something they don't want people to know — and you get deleted in a heart beat.

All i can say is that WHY has McCain been Hiding her and not letting her out of her sight? No media interviews untill now! Palin said it best to let us know she was unqualified. " I dont even know what a vice president does". Well once John has trained you on what to say, and you get in to debates we will all know just how unqualified you are. Its a shame john is just using you to get women votes. THIS IS A DREAM TICKET IF YOU WANT TO SEE AMERICA FAIL, AND LOSE ALL RESPECT IN THE EYES OF THE WORLD!

Spew, spew, spew your hate you bunch of fools. Let's talk about what exactly is a community organizer in Chicago politics. Oh I know, he makes sure that all of the grave yards are represented and all of the votes are bought and paid for.

Wow Cheney, you're the single biggest failure as a Vice President. Palin should be scared that you offer her any praise. Keep talking. It will be good for the Dems because anyone you endorse or support is going to follow right in your footsteps. Enough! I can't wait for the day when you and Bush vacate the Whitehouse. What a complete and utter failure your administration has been. You have hijacked our children's future..no more. We've had enough!

Geraldine Ferraro was the first woman VP and was a democrat. You people get inform before who say such thing that this is the greatest history for women since suffrage. No it isn't; I wonder if geraldine ferraro nomination as first woman VP in the history of US was not matter. People are very inform and saying such things makes people want to laugh at your one sided republican guts. Geraldine ferraro first woman nominate VP, Hillary Clinton first woman to run for the presidency as a front runner for quite a long time and these folks are Democrats. No way, no how, No mcCain son of George Bush.
We were waiting for a savior to save our country we found Bush as Americans personal savior. Now Bush as a god that kill and distroy economy will send McCain his son to finish the job. No way, No how, No McCain.

It doesn't matter who is President or VP for the Republicans. Those two (any two) are only window dressing for the Republican Machine.
Have you not noticed how McCain's policies and positions have changed dramatically since he started running? Did you not hear his campaign manager a few weeks ago say, "McCain does not necessarily represent the best interests of the McCain campaign?"

Palin is in the spot she's in because she'll be easily controlled. Same thing with McCain. Neither person thinks for themselves. They are being fed scripted statements and speeches, and will do exactly as they are told.

I fear for my country's future if these two are elected.

I agree. A McSame-Palin administration will be Bush-Cheney to the extreme. Will probably make the Bush-Cheney experience seem like a cake walk.

LOL! The Obamabots are scared to death! What music to my ears. You all treated Hillary like dirt, and now the chickens are coming home to roost to quote Reverend Wright. Why should Hillary and Bill help Obama? Let the Messiah save Himself! Maybe his - LOL - WONDERFUL VP choice Biden can help him! Leave it to the DIMocrats to screw up in a year when they should have won in a landslide! I'm so glad that I'm no longer one of them! I changed to an Independent once Hillary was thrown under the bus, and I AM voting for McCain in November!

Hillary 2012! Thank goodness Obama will be nothing more a lesson in how to LOSE an election by then!

For now, Sarah looks so fresh and new! Obama just looks tired, and he's yesterday's news. We've all heard the same old speeches 100 times, and most of us are sick of him and his boring speeches!

MARIE SAID –THE DRAFT, THE DRAFT THE DRAFT,
the only person in Congress that has repeatedly brought up the draft is Democrat-Charlie Rangle–from New York, and oh yeah since she doesn't seem to really know what is going on–he happens to be black.

To is to Careful Now: I hope you are rich because when you cast your vote for McCain/Palin they are going to rip every little penny out of your pocket if you have any left after Bush/Cheney. Be an idiot and vote for the GOP and you will be sorry. If you truly believed in Hillary you will back the candidate that she is backing. How can you cast your vote for a woman who can stand up in front of the cameras and smile because her 17 year old daughter is pregnant. My family has dealt with teenage pregnancy and I can say that no of us were smiling about it. Now as a family we have pulled together and dealt with it but trust me no of us were parading around a teenage couple smiling and saying they are having a baby and getting married. As a woman I am appalled that Governor Palin seems to think it is okay to promote teenage pregnancy.

If Obama really wants to win, he'll dump Joe Biden and pick up Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshen.. OUCH!!

Good grief America, WAKE UP!!! McCain/Palin offer this country even more misery than we have suffered the last 8 years. The Obama/Biden ticket must be elected to give us a fighting chance!

If this soccer mom/first term governor couldn't teach her 17 year old daughter good value's or moral's, then she should have at least told her about birth control pill's or condom's, (just what this country need's, another pregnant teenager.) This is another example of why John McCain's choice of V.P. wasn't the right one. If she can't run her family, how is she going to help run this country???

Remember, this is the same person that said West Virginians were inbred. This person said Iraq had WMD's and our troops would be greeted with flowers as liberators. The only difference I see in McCain/ Palin opposed to Bush/Cheney is that they are exactly the same.

Who let the Big Oil idiot out of his cage? Your speech at the convention was cancelled, so not even your own party cares what you have to say!

Each administration is different,” Cheney said explaining the prospective McCain administration won’t look like the current administration, or the administration of President Bush’s father.

It is not about looks you fools; it is about the issues and which no body on the Republ side are willing to talk about. HOw long are we American people have to be subject to this nosense of a pick that only engerized the old nasty men in the Republ. American people desire better than this and the only way the American people will get what we desire is to vote for Change you can believe in which is Obama. Yea, McSane change is going and you will not be apart of it!

And now add Sarah Palin to that list. Just listen to those liberals cry.., that's my girl!!

Did he just predict an administration even worse than Dubya?

Both of them are crooks……

I love hearing liberals cry…, Dick Cheney is my hero.

I found it absolutely hillarious when in one breath John Kerry said Palin was not qualified to be vp, then the next thing he said was she is just like Cheney. I voted for him –I'M GLAD HE DID'T WIN.

McCain/Pailin is a fairy tale.

Bill Clinton

I find it odd that people compare years of experience as if that is all that matters. It's not black and white - you need to take into account judgment, vision, and the issues at hand, among other things. John McCain will not bring change…I don't care how much he says it and tries to fool you, it's not going to happen. With all the years of experience McSame has, what has he done????? He has no vision, he's set on all the old ways of politics, and will continue the same policies as Bush. Obama has outlined numerous ways to improve our economy, health care, education, energy independence, and national security. This is true vision and his judgment has been correct on almost all of the issues. Obama will bring the change we need to stop this downfall of America. If you don't think America is on a serious downfall, you need to wake up and find our what is really happening in our government and in the world. Ignorance is no longer acceptable. And folks, religion and politics are two very separate things. Don't be fooled by those pretending to be religious for the sake of getting your vote - these are the most hypocritical and corrupt of the politicians - just look at Bush, Foley, and so many other republicans that have done this.

Vote on Issues, Hope and Change. Vote Obama-Biden!!!!

Why is Obama so far behind in the Polls? Why isn't he ahead??

Obama needs to dump Biden and pick up Hillary before it's to late! Didn't Biden have shock treatment in his youth? He is old enough… Who cares, dump him now!!

If this does not make America realize the McCain and Palin is a bad choice for this country then America is stupid.

Dems…Obama supporters…do not be fooled on these three points:

1. John McCain/Palin will bring change. Absolutely NOT…. Think about it: Doing the same thing over and over again is insanity (Einstein) Electing these two would confirm Americans are insane.

2. People that say "I would have voted for Barack…but my dog ate my homework, Hillary didn't get the nod, blah blah …these people are the worst liars in the world. Really just republicans with zero integrity. Again they have no platform about what good their candidates will bring but excuses and attacks.

3. Lastly, would you see a doctor….who…as of last month said they didn't know what they were supposed to do in their new job. Sarah Palin didn't know what a VP is supposed to do. In one month, she's supposed to know what she's doing - all of a sudden?

Come on people…think….we still allow that in America

Don't forget that community organizers don't really offer any real benefit to the American people.

Don't forget which (Dems) party actually offered a specific plan to help the American economy. Not surprising since McCain stated publicly that he knows very little about the economy, and Palin is a journalist major.

The tight polls suggest that Americans are NOT experiencing any financial problems.

Sarah Palin is Dick Cheney without the Pacemaker.

After living like a celebrity for 2 years, I don't think Obama wants to work hard - the presidency requires long hours and tough decisions. He likes giving speeches and campaigning, but I don't think he's worked a 10 hour day in his life, let alone a 20 hour day. He picked a work-a-holic life-politician as his running mate to do all the work for him.

Contrast Obama with McCain - McCain doesn't necessarily like giving speeches and campaigning, but likes doing the government work. he spent years on authoring bills - Obama just votes on them - never once writing one.

McCain doesn't need the money either, his wife is worth millions. He actually wants to lead the country, put in the tough and long hours, and give back to his country. He's got maybe 15 years left in his life, maybe 20, so money isn't his motivation.

Similar to Swarzennegger in California who didn't need the Governor's money, in fact, he doesn't even take a salary. Arnold just wanted to mix things up.

I just don't see Obama's motivation being anything but self-serving. If you don't agree, petition him to release his campaign funds after he win/loses. He won't do it. McCain would.

McCain/Palin '08

Who in the world would listen to anything Cheney has to say??
Truly believe Bush/Cheney/Rove will be indicted for criminal
acts against our country after the election.
And don't forget voters, Mccain supported and continues
to support their mindset, policies.
Our country cannot survive Mccain or the pubs.

Is she hiding in the same bunker Cheney's in?
Are those bunkers big enough for two?
Hitler wound up living in a bunker….

He joked that he “loved,” some of her one liners, particularly, Palin’s reference to the difference between a hockey mom and a pitbull.

“It’s lipstick,” Cheney said, laughing.

What a joked Cheney is. Most American people are not laughing and wants some answers why this economy is in such a mess and you old men in the Republ talk about is how Palin engerized you nasty old men. This is not a stip club this is the USA you nasty old fools. McSane pick this Hitler in a dress to only engerized the nasty old Republ men when the economy is so bad, WWWIII is around the corner, and Hitler in a dress is only one beat from running the white house. American people a not stupid this time around.

Oh my God! they are going to do the same mistake they did when they voted for Bush for a second term. Their thoughts are very short. Vote for Mc Cain and do not complain four years later that he has been the worst President you have ever had. You have the president you deserve.
Inexperience has two different meanings for Republicans. It means RACISM for Obama and REFORMER for Palin. All that glitters is not gold. Be careful, think with your head and not with your heart.

For the very first time in a very long time I am NOT afraid for my country — with McCain and Palin at the helm !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I love PIT BULL women — we get things done — always have, always will!

And I LOVE men who love us — REAL men!

I love the way the Left Wing Dem's are running scared!

McCain and Palin are the "Real Deal"!

They don't have to Lie or pretend they are moderate conservatives
Because they are!

I can't wait to watch ABC interview Sarah later this week!

McCain/Palin-08-with a Landslide Victory!

McCain had more viewers than Obama!? With that boring, non-issue filled, whoa is my service message!? How could that be!!??

It McCain and Palin get elected, America will be doomed. End of Story.

In a sense, Cheney is right - it will be an administration like no other — an administration that seals the downfall of America as we know it.

God help us. Elect Barack Obama

All you Republicans who think you got it made by VP Palin. Wait till John McCain throw the curve ball about not being able to hold is job as President once he is nominated and VP Palin has to take over. Now is she ready for President or should she be BP. You guys need to think about this because John McCain is setting up the world for a big surprise.

Cheney needs to keep taloking and let Americans know what the Palin-McCain Pain=Cain is not one that will CHANGE what is going on in DC or may life better for America.

IT IS TIME TO TURN THE PAGE!

Do something Obama before it gets too late. Palin has become the Pain you never could have imagined. Time for action. No more Mr. nice guy.

Please keep endorsing the McCain Palin ticket Dick! Get your pal, W to do the same!

Speaking of same………………..

There will be no McCain/Palin administration!

Hey VP,

In what respect???

More reason to vote for Obama/Biden

Boy are you right about that!!! We'll have TWO "C" students instead of one which means neither can turn to the other on any issues of importance because neither will know what's going on!!! LOL!!

Hey VP,

In what respect????

lets just get to the issue, this reminds me of Busch 8 years ago , the did to Mc Cain what the doing to Obama now . the republican wont change .the dont want any Change

Cheney is so off left field, because McCain and Palin are just Bush and Cheney,=====McBush in pants, PalCheney in a bra and skirt!

More of the Bush and Cheney without even looking in a mirror!

CNN: Not that anyone really cares, or realizes there is a world outside of (God bless the) USA, but I think you spelled Prime Minister Tymoshenko's name incorrectly.

McCain and Palin will win in 2008.

Why would anyone with common sence listen to him, he sucked as a vice president, I guess he's threw hiding now since his days are numbered, its been so long since I've seen him I forgot what his name was, LOL.

Obama/Biden

I can't wait for the real debate between biden and this runner up. She has come accross as a player..then i hope she does not complaint when the questions are thrown at her and she can't answer.

Is so easy to read a piece of paper and impress people..is much harder to get hit with a question and have a secon to respond. Will see how this supposed maverick will do.

I think people are running away with Palin. She is the VP and if you really look at it they are writing her speeches. If Sarah is a true VP let her write her own speeches and give more public press. Hey that is like hidding her pregancy so she can win. People want the truth not hidden agenda with lies.

Republicans are more disciplined than Democrats. They will holler for whoever the convention puts in front of them whether they like him/her or not. They were not excited about either McCain or Palin, but they are pretending to be excited anyway. Winning is all that matters to them. The country can go to the dogs as long as they are in charge.

REALLY, DOES HE MEAN WORST THAN BUSH OR…….anyway dick no one will listen to you. I JUST WANT TO SEE IF AMERICANS GONA LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.
IF MCCAIN/PALIN GET ELECTED, BY THE TIME HILLARY OR ANY PROMINENT DEMOCRAT GET IN OFFICE, IT WILL BE TOO LATE. OBAMA/BIDEN NEEDS TO GET ELECTED SO THAT HILLARY CAN COME IN 8 YEARS LATER.

AMERICA, AMERICA, AMERICA………..THIS IS NOT TYPICAL ELECTION, YOUR VOTE DOES COUNT…….."IMAGINATION IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN KNOWLEDGE"

OBAMA HAS THE IMAGINATION AND MCCAIN HAS THE KNOWLEDGE(SO HE SAYS). BE WISE AMERICA

Ok, who ever Bush and Cheney endorse should be the candidates you don't vote for!

Amen - the Bush/Cheney cronies can not fools us this time. Like Obama said Palin is more allied with these two fools.

HEADLINE AND PICS IN TODAY'S PAPER:

————————

Palin's baby gives a political boost!

Alex Wong / Getty ImagesNYT: Alaska governor's son has an unexpected effect on her fortunes

THIS WOMAN WILL USE EVEN THE MOST INOCENT TO GET WHAT SHE WANTS.

Thanks Cheney! Keep up the good work!

Be the albatross on the necks of Ol' Cranky and New Cranky.

Palin is a comedian and is on tour with her one-liner dog and pony show. Reminicent of Rosan Barr. You gotta give it to her, it gets her the attention she thrives on. But what it says about American's who support her is there are a lot of idiots willing to put her in office. Even though they know 80% of everything that spews from her bulldog-lips is a lie.

Frank, I so agree with you.

I was just telling my sister last night since when does having an Ivy League education make you uppity?

People need to get real about this Sara Palin pick and start fact checking her stands on policy.

Oh my, McCain and Palin are God's gift to Americans, right, Dick? Of course I believe everything and anything you say. Your word is gold, your record impeccable.

Thank you, thank you so much, Dick, for your wisdom these last eight years, and especially now with your glowing endorsement of Slick and Slicker.

When you step into the voting booth, don't be a dick (cheney)

This reminds me of the old black and white fascist movies of the 1940's.

If she wants the press to bill her as the "pit bull with lipstick" and hide behind the podium running her mouth, she better have the guts to stand before the American Press, OUR advocates BTW, and answer some questions. And she better not start crying when Joey Biden beats her up point after point during their debate. Yes, GIRLS, let's all vote for her — she has boobs.

Cheney is right in that Mccain and Palin will be like no other administration. They'll represent the American people,and lay partisanship aside. We need that kind of change. We do not need Obama's expensive government spending to continue in congress or the Senate. We need someone representing the work force of America.

How much would you pay someone after they've robbed you? The republicans have robbed this country over the past eight years. You can thank them by voting for McCain.

Does anybody remember the experience that Bush came into office with? His ticket, read like JFK & Obama's. Very little experience, compensated by a VP pick with decades of experience. Hmmm. When all is said and done, this dialogue is nothing more than political banter.

Oh Darth Vader came out from under a rock . How Special .

Oh my God. Cheney is endorsing McCain-Palin? That is clearly a reason not to vote for them. You need to look through all the games, lies and hypocrisy that the republicans are spreading.

Folks, we can't let this downfall of America continue. If you do, we will all regret it once it's too late….mark my words.

Vote Obama-Biden!!

Hey CNN why aren't you commenting on the Olberman/Mathews firings. They came in last in Nielsen with you a close second to last. Maybe you should start cleaning house yourselves by getting rid of the Brown show and bringing back the Spin Room with Press and Carlson.

You mean the same Dick Cheney that wasn't invited to the Republican Convention? The same Dick Cheney that supported the invasion of Iraq and supported Donald Rumsfeld?

MORE WARS COMING PEOPLE IF THE QUICK TEMPERED AND STUBBORN JOHN MCCAIN IS ELECTED.

HE DOESN'T HAVE THE IQ FOR THE JOB.

TO: frank

Well said.

It's not that people are gulliable or are falling for this farce, it's the fact that they rather have the devil stay in power over their hearts and mind, than have a Black/White man in office. Wake up America, our troops are still fighting a war that we shouldn't be fighting, jobs are going overseize, unemployment is at its all time high, and gas and food is off the hook. Certain bloggers keep preaching that Obama isn't qualified, but McCain is. The same person who voted 90% of the time with Bush. Look where this country is now. The whole world is laughing at us. People would rather preach their racism and prejudice, rather than preach the facts. I dare to say that most racist come from the early generations because our young folks want a change and deserve it. This election is more about the future of our children, since most adults keep getting it wrong.

Americans sure must like School marm nanny types to tell them what
they can and cannot do. Freedom is not important to some Americans.

Democrats 08.

Palin will NEVER see the White House as VP. Currently, she's just the flavor of month. Trust. It will wear off.

If Cheney was so supportive, why didn't he show up at the convention? Was he afraid that Palin might not miss???? Palin is nothing but a republican blow hard. She is riddled with earmarks, lies, scandals etc. Doesn't have a clear, legitimate thought in the bubble head of hers. She would do nothing but set women back another 100 years, put the country in deeper debt than it already is - looked what she did as mayor - came into office - zero debt, left office - 22 million dollars in debt. Gee, doesn't that sound familiar????

This woman has created hate and discontent, from the PTA (oh which is a community organizer), to mayor and to governor. Give me a break!!!!

I can't see too many people listening to Cheney. Of coarse he will try & influence some into believing what he says. If McSame gets in the WH, we know it will be an extension of Bush. Who would vote for this ? Same OLD Washington Policies. Nothing new there. No way, No How, No McCain-Palin.

We went to Iraq to disarm their government of WMD's
If the serge did not find the WMD's, How is it a success again???
Oil and War is all I hear form he republicans.
Housing Market Breakdown.

And the same administration that ignored this problem is taking it over. I guess more government intervention is the right answer after all.

Can someone say hypocrites…

Hey Dick:
Why didn't you come to the convention, joker?
I am really surprised that you still talk.
If I were you, I would just keep it quiet.

If McCain and Palin gets in, please shut down every blog so that NO ONE can complain about their failing economy, the destoryed educational system, and the draft.

Ok, who ever Bush and Cheney endorse should be the candidates you don't vote for!

This coming from the biggest Cancer in United States history!

Hey careful now.

Be careful what you wish for. Your vote is crucial. Vote for a policy/party that will unite the USA with the rest of the free world, not alienate it. Hillary will have a huge role in the Obama led government. You can count on it.

Unbelievably, almost half of the people in this country appear to have no grasp of what Sarah Palin really is: a campaign ploy. So what if she can deliver one-liners? President Bush has a sense of humor, too.
I don't want a "bulldog" anywhere near the White House!
I want a serious, level-headed, contemplative, discerning person at the head of this country for a change.
You McCain supporters really need to be asking yourselves WHY they're not talking about the issues! CNN's commentators explained it, but you might have been high on Palin gas at the time.

Only in a Rethiglican America is a black man who is a Constitutional Law Scholar, who served 8 yrs as State Senator and 4 yrs as US Senator and served on the Foreign Relations Committee not ever considered ready to lead but a white evangelical ultra conservative woman, with a BA in Journalism and 19 mos as Governor considered ready on day one. BTW Barack, you are my hero for your community service and don't let trailor trash paliar tell you any different.

You Hillary supporters voting for McCain are true selfish fools. Hillary herself has urged you to vote for Obama, and pointed out how much her supporters have in common with him. He has done everything possible to be respectful towards her and heal the rift which her negative campaign created. If you actually cared what she thought and didn't just care about seeing a woman, no matter how much of a lying scumbag she is, in office, you would vote for Obama.

Obama/Biden 08. The change we need.

This is news? Of course the neocon is getting back in bed with another neocon. I'm sure he's hoping for more Halliburton contracts as McSame would entrench us deeper into the Iraq quagmire.

There are more Democrats than republicans. What does that tell you
poll peeps. The only poll that matters is in November.

Democrats 08.

Of course Chenney LOVED Palin's speech - he let her borrow his speechwriters. Again, they are focusing on personality perks, not the real financial needs of the people and social justice.

LOOK WHOS TALKING

We do not care what Dick Cheney has to say about anything!

obama needs clinton now!ha ha!!he should have picked her and be the president.i voted democratic all my life.but this time i am going mccain- palin.even if palin has 10 out of the wedlock kids and she turns out to be gay.hillary 2012

Wake up folks, the Demos (Obama/Biden) are going to raise your taxes! Inform yourselves, find out just where Obama came from, his grandmother was VP of a Bank in Hawaii, does that sound like a poor upbringing and what about Biden, who's priming his son to take his seat in Delaware? Get informed!!

Palin has much more executive experience than Obama, that's the plain truth. Obama's experience is very thin and I don't think community organizer, law school professor etc. prepares you to be President of the United States, period.

Get informed!!

McCain/Palin '08!!!!!

THE DRAFT - THE DRAFT - THE DRAFT -THE DRAFT

With John McCain and Sarah Palin you can count on it people. They will get us into MORE WARS. THE WORLD WANT AND EXPECT BARACK OBAMA TO BE ELECTED, NOT JOHN MCCAIN AND HIS STUBBORN TEMPERMENT.

Sarah Palin will not challenge John McCain or help him in governing in anyway because she has no idea what she's in for. Has she ever been to Washington?

How can anyone compare Palin to Biden?

Its more important to stick with your (GOP) party than admit the truth that Palin doesn't bring change (she is further to the right than George Bush).

CNN is not reporting that Oberman and Matthews have been booted from MSNBC for their blatant Obama worship.

CNN, can't you report something that doesn't worship Obama either?

This is my second attempt to get the Oberman/Matthews removal posted…

Why isn't CNN playing Sarah Palin's minister's words over and over?

Hillary is being asked to do to Palin what the DNC and Obama did to her. Shows great INSENSITIVITY to Hillary.
Women is her strongest supporters. She should try to hold on to them for 2012.

Now thatt's what we needed a ringing endorsement for Darth Vader..!!!!!!!!!!..Keep on talking Dicky boy…..you'll deliver this baby to us sooner or later!!!!!!!!!!!..Please keep endorsing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BOJO..You guys should be all over this.!!!!!!!!!!!

The people in this country be it Rep. or Dem. better pray that these two do not get ELECTED. If they do this COUNTRY is in store for a WORLD OF HURT. THIS IS SERIOUS.

Unlike any other. That is an understatement. We will be regressing back in time, instead of going forward.

I just want to get this out there, because I haven't read anyone else making this comment. Regarding the "lipstick" joke: the first time I heard this used was in a "joke" by Rev. Hagee — remember him? Another friend of John McCain. Well, his offensive joke was, "What's the difference between a woman with PMS and a pit bull?" You got it — lipstick! Boy, those right wing Christians are a funny bunch, aren't they?

John McSame is trying to play "maverick" because he chose to run as a Republican. He's counting on Palin to keep the uber-right wing in line while he touts his independent creds.

Don't believe it. On policy he's no maverick, he's Bush III. And if anything happened to him, it would be Marie Antoinette Palin in charge, crying "Off with their heads!" and "Let them eat cake!"

If you think Bush is bad on the Constitution, imagine what Palin would bring. Does she even know we have a constitution?

I don't think I want to see the White House offered on eBay, any more than I want it sold off to Haliburton.

… for once Dick Cheney is telling the truth … and God Help America if its McCain/Palin.

Even Faux News is getting concerned about McCain's lies: not because its wrong but because they are afraid McCain will get caught. What can you expect of a man who file for a marriage license months before his divorce but chose his next partner after meeting her only once?

Not much and that's what America will get! Why do people brag about how nasty they are?

It appears to me that….."If you don't stand for something, You will fall for anything"……..American voters are you listen! The Republicans are gaining ground in an election, that they should be losing hands down! Who would have thought otherwise, after 8 hard years of G.W.Bush; where did all that American "spirit of change" go, suddenly?

WAKE UP AMERICA!

Read the blogs and then read articles from the media. There are TWO stories being told. One is what the PEOPLE ARE SAYING which sides toward Obama. The other is HYPE that the media uses to craft stories and fight for ratings which tries to make McCain look like he's in the game (old dude actually believes it). It's inappropriate and unethical. Also, THE POLLS DON'T REFELECT THE TRUE VOTING COMMUNITY EITHER. That's why some articles are closed with few comments.

DON'T SLEEP; GUARANTEE CHANGE BY VOTING!!!

Thank goodness Cheney finally made a factual statement after 8 years.

Your Endorsement Has Solidified My Vote For Obama! I Was Never Going To Vote For Mccain But Now I Am Definately Voting For Obama!

Ignoring the right-wing beauty queen would be the best approach for Americans really interested in change for our country.

Ms. Palin is a side show to American politics and derserves no ones attention or respect.

VOTE FOR BARRACK OBAMA AND JOE BIDEN……….IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO !!!!!

Let's hope Palin can tell the difference between a quail and her hunting partner!!!!!!!

Obama needs to learn that you can't fight pigs without throwing a little crap yourself. Obama needs to take of the gloves and fight McCain like McCain is fighting Obama. Obama needs to spend more time pointing out the lies if McCain and attack McCain's court jester foir what she really isn't.

Frank: I am going to print the John Ridley comment and keep it in a fire proof vault. It is more than a gem. It is priceless.

Obama has to do something soon, or else McCain's lead is going to go into the double digits (probably in a week or two) and soon become insurmountable. Some of the undecided white voters are already nervous about Obama and the GOP know exactly how to exploit that.

Of course it will be different. There would be a possible president who has less than 650 days in state or federal offices combined. There would be a possible president who has received less than 150,000 votes in her entire lifetime before the election. Like Republican Spiro Agnew, we could have a vice president who is under investigation for a crime.

McCain has shown us his level of judgment by selecting a person for vice president who asked a few weeks ago what a vice president does. Experience means nothing if your judgment is awful.

IMAGINE….McCheney was asked to say something.

Georgie, you're not pulling his string again are you?

Au Contrair Sure Shot Cheney. The McBush Paleny ticket will be almost the mirror image of the Bush Cheny administration except for subtle differences like…..McBush is just a little crazier and ill tempered than Bush, and Palin is a whole lot less experienced and about half as smart as Cheny.

So Cheney, Bush, and Big Oil endorse McCain/Palin.

And this is going to be different than the past 8 years how? Oh because McCain is an expert on the economy…

Obama/Biden '08

Great - Darth Vader has endorsed the Palin / McCain sideshow. Maybe Cheney knows she can shoot better than he can!

That endorsement should be the kiss of death… but hey, McCain's got himself another hottie.

It's true! The McCain/Palin ticket is even more stupid than the Bush Chaney ticket.

All of you saying that Palin is a fraud, lacks experience, yada yada yada… that is your candidate.

I was going to vote Democrat in November after the Clinton's speech at the DNC convention but I can't bring myself to do it. Obama cares only for himself. He doesn't care about party unity (Hillary as VP), CHANGE (Biden) and he and his worshippers for months spread hatred toward the Clintons and now????

Having a private dinner with President Clinton - Hillary on the trail for him (actually for the party, not him — which is a lesson he should learn).

This man is PATHETIC and so are his followers. He does care about family either - ask Rev. Wright.

I don't agree with everything either candidate says but Obama obviously is too green to lead and he needs his ego put in check. We'll send him back to the Senate for a few more years for some training.

McCain/Palin '08

YES WE CAN!

Sorry, Dick. You got the wrong D word. The right word for a McCain/Palin administration would be "DISASTER"!

Anyone who thinks that John McCain will address all of the important issues facing our nation (not just national security - but the economy, energy policy, education, etc.) and that Sarah Palin is ready to step in to the Oval Office in the event that something happens to McCain and is comfortable with her extreme viewpoints on social issues, shoud just go ahead an vote for them.

I think otherwise and will vote accordingly.

Well, Dick Cheney loves Palin, enough said.

Cheny endorsement LOL The More of the SAME want MCsame and cheerleader Palin.

Palin is so UNKNOWN no ones know anything about her LOL

She has next to nothing in accomplishments.
Under investination for abuse of her powers and hasnt even completed her 2nd year as Alaska Gov. OH and like the second smallest state population LOL. There is more people living in LA then the entire state of alaska.

But i give the evil republican attack machine credit in there VP pick. The one in few repulicans thay dont have any dirt on them becuse there so UNKNOWN and havent been in public service long enuf to find out there talents or lack of talents.

Like rest of Americains the Dems have to do research on her and thats hard to do becuse she has almost no history in serving public office LOL.

WOW a mayor of a few houses and building with a population less then 8000 people. LOL Mangers at Mcdonalds in NewYork have more management skills then she does.

Then her first big spot in public office she has less then two years in service and all ready under investigation for coruption LOL

McCain might as well nominated a playboy super star that only be a 1 or 2 steps down LOL And it is a extreamly insulting to even give her the respect Hillary deserves and accomplished in her life time. Palin is NO Hillary NOT EVEN CLOSE. Puting Palin on the same scale for comparsion as Hillary is just insulting.

SOUNDS LIKE MORE OF THE SAME

NO HOW NO WAY NO MCSAME

Are we even listening to anybody from the Bush administration anymore? Americans are done with your lies. You are irrelevant now. Go away.

Obama/Biden '08

If we want to see change, we have to make sure we all vote. I'm sure the majority of the youth supports Obama, but statistically they do not vote. I am 27 years old college student and I have never voted until this election, and I'm doing it mainly because of what's a stake in this election. I am also trying to encourage others like me to register and vote. From my perspective and based on the current poll numbers, the outcome of this election will depend on the undecided voters and the ones who have yet to register which are mostly young adults.

Palin and Mccain will be bad for this conutry, so we need to start praying now. Mccain is 72 and Palin will finish his frist term, that will be very dangerous.

The stupidity of the American people never ceases to amaze me. So eaily led and even more easily fooled. Especially with so many Stepford women who are too naieve to get the facts, but will vote for purely sexists reasons or because tehy just follow the crowd.

Amerca deserves the reputation it has now thatnks fo the last 8 years. Apathetic, lazy, whiny, uninformed. Pathetic!

Better have lots of Kool-Aid on hand at the polling stations.

He wasn't even invited for the convention, never once mentioned either.
Now this old man is talking about lipstick?.Sad day for republicans.

McCain complained for months about Obama being a celebrity and now he has a celebrity of his own in Palin. Funny how it's ok to have a celebrity when it benefits you. Republican's are as two-faced as you can get.

Does anyone really believe that the Republican K Street lobbyists are just going to throw up their hands and walk away? There's a good ad running here in North Carolina showing how McCain and Bush are basically the same. It has a video of McCain bragging about voting with Bush more than 90% of the time. Once the evangelicals realize that McCain is an adulterer and when others realize that Palin is worse than Cheney, their polls numbers will drop back to where they were.

I would have to agree with Cheney….it would be like no other. I thought things could never be worse, but amazingly it seems like the American people never learn. They keep doing the same thing over and over and over expecting a different result. It never ceases to amaze me how people will cast their votes based on a single issue like gender, prochoice/prolife, and ignore the fact that it is suppose to govern at the will of the people, protect the constitutional rights of every American and not just to line their pockets with taxpayer's money. Noone knows how to better influence the electorate than Karl Rove, et al. They are bringing out the big guns now and again people will fall for the same negative, outright lies, because the American people (not all of them thank goodness) are too lazy and preoccupied with their own lives to give a darn about anyone else that isn't in their immediate circle, and too apathetic and lazy to research the candidates for themselves. They prefer to have our elected officials given to us by the media, with their out of context statements, outright lies and ignorance. So I guess the American people will get exactly what they deserve…nothing.

I will be Just like the 8 Years of Hell that we are going through right now i am tired of these Republicans lying as if they want to help this Country and the American if that is true why is it that the Last 8 years have been the worst in History Because the Same Lying Republicans Lie the Same way every 4 Years and Americans Buy it and then get mad with what they get. If You really thing Geroge Bush and Dick Cheney did a Good Job the Last 8 Years Go ahead and Vote for Mccain and Lying Palin. Obama Biden is the Crystal Clear Choice in this Election Don't Let Racism decide your Vote!

Brad in Illinois, that is what you call a real Republican????? Wow, if that is the best you guys have to offer, then the DEMS will be in the White House for the next 20 years. BTW am I on comment punishment again Moderator?

Cheney gives me seizures.

"YOUR RIGHT DICK , BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT BE THERE

McCAIN/PALIN" quote. PHIL TEXAS

Can you one please explain to me the difference of MCCAIN Administration and the Bush Administration?

McCain has voted identical to the Bush Adminstration, they are synonymous with each -other.

Both administrations
support the trickle down theory
both administrations voted on the War on Iraq
both campaigns vote for off shore drilling.

I don't understand the logic of voters. You must fall into the category of low informational voters.

Can someone please point out the differences between the administrations, i will check back periodically for an intelligent post. That is if CNN actually posts it.

The Truth doesn't matter. Who'd be the best president and vp doesn't matter. What matters is gullibility and hillbillies, Cheney/Bush not withstanding.

That said — Steve Schmidt and his Karl Rove/Machiavellian tactics will win it for the GOP in November.

End of story.

Cheney can laugh all he wants - We are laughing at him as he goes out. He had his chance to DO SOMETHING for OUR COUNTRY. WHAT DID HE DO FOR THE LAST 8 YEARS ? It's a good thing he kept out of sight. Now suddenly he's coming out of the woodwork to trash SARAH PALIN ! A woman, mother, Govenor, a politician, and the REPUBLICAN canidate for HIS JOB ! How DARE HE ?

Karl Rove scoffed at the Gov of VA as a potential VP pick for Obama stating VA was "too small" and that he was only gov for 3 years.

Then all the rules change for their own pick…Unreal.

Another ringing endorsement from one of the War Criminals, er uh, cabinet members of the Bush Administration.

When your kid gets drafted because the surge took all of the reserves needed to fend off an attack on America….

When you can't afford to drive to work anymore or better yet, don't even have a job you can drive to…

When you find yourself living in a post-Katrina trailer because your home was foreclosed upon…

Remember who to thank: YOURSELF for electing Republicans to another term.

Scared now?

There is absolutely NO argument for supporting McSame/Palin. Look around, like what you see? This is exactly what you will be getting if they win the election.

No question, no argument, no debate! He's 90% Bush, so imagine bush with a haircut and thats what you'll get!

For the media, this is good political theater. First the Obama-Hillary primary saga, and now trying to run another "Obama-Hillary" saga except Hillary's name is replaced with that of Palin.

Biden and Obama are handling the Palin factor satisfactorily based on what is known of her publicly. Biden on MEET THE PRESS said Palin was a "smart, tough and formidable politician". Obama most of the time ignores questions about her.

Biden is "brilliantly" helping to elevate Palin in the media, before he debates her. Biden is the most knowledgeable politician of the 4 candidates. Seeing him on MEET THE PRESS and deflating Tom Brokaw's media love of "The Surge agrument has worked" was scary. His knowledge of foreign affairs is something that can't be learned in 3 weeks, especially with the constantly changing international environment.

For Obama, i heard him at some town hall meetings really sharpening his resolutions on fixing the economy. I feel sorry for McCain if he doesn't study in the next two weeks.

Between Obama really hammering in the domestic policy issues like the economy and Biden hammering in the foreign policy issues, McCain and Palin are in for quite a surprise.

If anyone believes anything that comes out fo the mouth of Cheney, then they deserve exactly what they get.

to all the supporters of Obama who think that raising taxes on corpoartions is the right thing to do, are fools !!!!! pure and simple. Folks, this is economics 101. If you raise the taxes on Corporations, which by the way they are paying the highest taxes in the world, are business goes out of this country and into a foriegn country. They cannot compete on a international level because of the taxes that are leveled against them. If you reduce those taxes they can keep the business in the United States and compete on a international level.
I really wish you guys would pick up a book on economics before posting a comment that you do not understand. Look at the statistics of raising taxes on corporations and lower them on corporations. I'm not bashing anyone here, but people need to understand what happens when taxes are increased and decreased on corporations.
What do you think happeded to Michigan? Our corporatins can not comepete on a level playing field because of the taxes that they pay. They have to find the work cheap somewhere and it's not here.

CNN - why aren't you running the story about Palin calling Obama "sambo""?

This women is openly racist and vindictive - we don't need her a heartbeat away from the presidency.

WOW! I'm impressed the devil himself has endorsed the liars of the GOP> Give me a break!!!

GO OBAMA-BIDEN!!

Any endorsement from Cheney, or Bush, should be enoguh to let
you know…..its bad news. This whole fiasco about no spontaneous interviews (unscripted) and (we are 2 months from elections), ,was another alarm going off. if you needed a 3rd alarm, then making even that interview a 2 day 'walk-about" in Palin's home state, while she conversationally talks her "political message" with docile Charlie……give us a break.

We know since the GOP "offered" ABC and him in particular, the ONLY interview for the vice-presidential candidate, they agreed to do the National Geographic and family board version of what a well crafted interview is….Why not an Anne Sawyer, a Campbell Brown, a Barbara Walters…..I think you get the idea.

don't think she has to. This lady has sad that same speech at every stop. And eventually people are going to want to hear where she stands on the issues. You can't keep deliviring one liners and slogans. And I also have a question for everyone on this blog regardless of who you support in this electionn. How many of you have been polled. This administration is going to be just like the administration that's in office now controlled by the shadow government.

The American people are falling for this farce. They are going to guarantee that we have four more years of the same. It's a sad, sad thing.

Hey Cheney, sssssh! We are trying to convince the American people that we are going to change Washington. Shhhhhh! The deceipt is working…..man those people are gullible!

Yes, an endorsement from Shotgun Dick! Just in case you folks in Middle America didn't have enough to worry about with expensive gas, foreclosures, unemployment , etc. Too bad he wasn't at the convention so that people could see what snarky evil looks like up close and personal!

PLEASE!!!!! PEOPLE WAKE UP!!!!!!!!

Palin appeals to the religious rignt and McCain caved. Why aren't the main networks reporting what went on with Dobson, etc. before Palin was announced.

Now that Vice President Dick Cheney has approved the Palin choice I am relieved. All I was waiting for was his approval.

LOL

I know what I need to do for the country. I might not be in the military but I promised my friends in Military that I will do the right thing to take care of the country so that when they come back they will have all the benifits they need to start their life.

Obama/Biden 2008.

It would be different. If Palin shoots somebody in the face, it won't be birdshot!

Apart from that, a McCain/Palin administration would be different in that the old school strategies that have been failing would fail even more profoundly. If the "drill,baby, drill" ticket comes into power, we won't have energy alternatives, and we'll end up fighting wars over energy resources to sustain the otherwise untenable status quo.

Palin and McCain stand for laissez-faire, oil, and endless, hopeless war.

The only difference would be the name change. Instead of Bush-Cheney it would be McCain-Palin. Everything else would be the same.

Hey you men - She's Hot - isn't that enough reason for all you men to vote for her?

Now I KNOW I made the right choice.

******OBAMA/BIDEN '08*********

Are you serious? Palin's not a pitbull… she's George Bush in lipstick!

jenkins: "I really like McCain-Palin and really HATE Cheney!"

And yet you'll elect someone who's vp nominee is almost exactly like Cheney aside from the age and the plumbing. They both even hunt in a similar manner; he at game farms where the bird is helpless and she wolves being chased by helicoptors.

Yep. Further confirmation that the Republicans are right and the American voter really is stupid.

Mcain/Palin tickect will be worst than Bush/Cheney. Remember folks Mcain voted 90% of the time with president Bush through out his presidency, and 100% of the time in 2008.

As Hillary said No Way, No How No Mcain No Palin.

Mechanisburg, Pa

Only in your dreams will these two puppets win the election. I don't think the american people will put repuklicans back in office after the most unfriendly government to the normal american citizen we have ever had. There will be more turn your head to what needs to be
