This is exactly what we've come to expect from the Republicans. They ignore subpoenas, they don't bother with copyright laws, they ignore required warrants, etc. And can you imagine if BO had picked a VP currently under an active ethics investigation? The Republicans would have been all OVER him. How can they justify picking someone who may be found guilty of impropriety? I know. It's because they think they're above the law. Well, you know what? They're wrong and they're going to find out the hard way if BO/Biden win this election.

It is painfully clear that McCain alone does not generate this excitement and does not have the appeal and popularity that he is enjoying as part of this Team of so-called “Mavericks.” This does not reflect well on his ability to head the ticket, and Palin is not qualified to be President of the United States if that were to become necessary. She is nothing more than a strategically placed marketing device being used to sell an otherwise boring, more of the same-old-partisan-politics McCain to undecided, disenfranchised voters and the extreme right wing conservative base. McCain and Palin ARE NOT what they claim to be. Just notice how often the crowds of their "supporters" are forced to chant, "USA, USA" only to drown out the protests. Don't be fooled by appearances.

It would be an understatement to say that it makes me nervous to think that someone who is looking for signs that it is time for the Apocalypse could have their finger on the button. Anyone else uncomfortable about that? Remember, she is on tape saying that the invasion of Iraq was part of God's plan, as is getting the pipeline she supports built.

Republicans continue to lie and attack so much better than Democrats. When will the Democrats start using the same tactics? Republicans can't run the country, but, they sure can run a campaign. Why does the electorate in this country get themselves taken in by this? It is a self-defeating phenomena for the electorate that is about to happen again. Republicans continue to lie and attack so much better than Democrats. When will the Democrats start using the same tactics?

The deaths of our brave men and women from our two current wars and the IRAN war will be on your heads. Of course, that will be off set when McCain or Palin appoint enough new members to the Supreme court (in name only) to totally get rid of abortion forever.

The Dems got the last laugh with the fact that the monies the "re-pubes" have paid goes to Obama. Perhaps we should send them Obama t-shirts and bumper stickers. John McShame has decided to pander to the extreme right by picking this highly unqualified candidate. (hey sarah, are you still cramming for the debate?) Well you can pander all you want John, because you just showed your true self. This election is merely about your selfish ambition to be president. With John McShame, DON'T be fooled. It is NOT about "Country First", it is about "Me (John McCain) First." It is time to boot the Republicans out of the White House! We're taking back our country!
