		<description>@ AValasquez:
You are delusional. Do you think Barack can do anything right this second? You have already made up your mind, so don&#039;t be offended when you are out of work and have no healthcare, can&#039;t pay your bills and live in a cardboard box because you choose to go down the unethical road paved by the Neocons. Are you an idiot? How long have you been in this country? I ask, because no citizen that has been here for their entire life should want to go through what we have for the past 8 years. You hear me knockin? Well let me in......</description>

		<description>Palin should do a fact check on Sen McCain Republican opponent Sen. John McCain criticism of Obama&#039;s relationship with Rashid Khalidi, an Arab studies professor at Columbia University, by suggesting that McCain also had a link to Khalidi. It said, &quot;John McCain should answer why, under his own chairmanship, the International Republican Institute repeatedly funded an organization Khalidi founded, the Center for Palestine Research and Studies, over the course of many years.&quot; Put foot in mouth</description>

		<description>Senator McCain you are no hero, you are in fact a terrorist.

Your campaign advisor &amp; &quot;Transition Chief&quot;  William Timmons was a Saddam Hussein lobbyist for 5 years.
You pal around with Gordon Liddy, domestic terrorist. 
You are a member of &quot;The Project for a New American Century&quot; - a radical extremist terrorist organization.
Your VP candidate&#039;s husband Todd Palin is a domestic terrorist in the Alaskan Independence Party.
You accuse Obama of knowing Rashid Khalidi, yet you yourself have given  Rashid Khalidi &amp; the PLO $500,000.00!!! So by your logic, if Obama is a terrorist sympathizer like you claim, then you Senator McCain are a state spronsor of terrorism. You are, by your own twisted logic, a terrorist by your own admittance.
You have met with Chilean Dictator Pinochet, a terrorist.
You&#039;re coordinated effort to use FOX NEWS, the Bush Administration, your campaign, Sarah Palin, and The Justice Department to commit voter fraud, voter intimidation, &amp; voter suppression is an act of terrorism.

John McCain you are a disgrace to your uniform &amp; to your country.</description>

		<description>Nothing here folks - move on.

McWarmonger and Caribou Barbie just bad-mouthing the workers that lost their jobs, and trashing Obama.

What are their policies?  Where are her medical records? Where is John&#039;s military history?  Songbird failed his test in NAM.  I don&#039;t think he should get do-overs by sending our kids into IRAN

Voted early for Obama/Biden - for ALL OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.</description>

		<description>It is pathetic that &quot;Joe the Plumber&quot; has become McCain campaign&#039;s foreign policy and economic advisor. The campaign comes across like its not McCain but Joe the Plumber running against Obama. They bring common people to represent, but most of their agenda is favoring rich getting richer.</description>

		<description>do you people realize that the celebrities in hollywood support obama?  i&#039;m pretty sure there are a lot of wealthy democrats who support obama.  the republican party is made up of HARD workers who do not accept handouts.  Hard work build a little character!!!  I am not about to give my country over to a man to be in charge of our wealth.  I want the freedom and liberty to succeed on my own with my hard work!!!  Mike Ditka obviously understands that.  His hard work paid off.  He didn&#039;t get to where he was from handouts!!!</description>

		<description>As much as I admire Ditka&#039;s on-field accomplishments and foreys into entertainment, I am not going to rely on a multi-millionaire football jock to tell me what&#039;s in my best interests.

Alaska can be &quot;socialist&quot; like Venezuela&#039;s Chavez, because it HAS excess oil revenues... McCain is CLUELESS on the foreclosure plan, because there ARE NO models to give &quot;fair&quot; value to mortgages when no valuation can be done with a market in freefall.  This pair is SO FULL of contradictions, the only Party with a record of economic success that ties security into international markets are the Dems in the last 25 years.  

Let&#039;s rid Wash, DC of lobbyists who draft legislation and work for &quot;special Presidential advisors&quot; (see Cheney and Rove and Bush).  We need to clean house and start with rational thinking, realism, and a long-term horizon that offers hope: We need Obama/Biden.  It is going to take 25 years to undo the Bush/Cheney damage, but Obama is the right man to start the job.</description>

		<description>Can CNN ever post one of my comments?

What does Ditka know about getting job.  He thinks that everyone that is unemployed just sits at home not trying to find a job,  guess he doesn&#039;t know what it&#039;s like.  Doesn&#039;t know that to keep getting unemployment benefits you have to attempt to find a job, and that more jobs are being cut then are being created.  Not to mention all the illegal immigrants taking some of our jobs.  There businesses in SE Iowa cutting jobs everyday, maybe he should create some jobs with all his money.  Oh yeah that&#039;s right that would be spreading his wealth around and we all know what he tries to do with his money, using his chariteis money for his own personal gain,  The repubs really know how to pick them.  Obama may serve on committees with some people, but McCain gives them the money.</description>

		<description>She is not ready to lead if something to McCain. She is making
attacks against Obama and she do not know him. He have not
attack her personally. This is dirty of her party to go on these ugly
attacks which Obama grandmother have to listen to on TV. He
or his party have nothing hurt her family or McCain family. This
sad they they do this in a fair way,McCain said he will not have a
dirty general election,but he lied as well. Tom Delay, was very
ugly as well,Obama have not said anything about him, Just the
party being ugly when their is nothing good to about the issues.</description>

		<description>Ditka says  “This is the land of opportunity,” he said. “It&#039;s not a land of handouts. If you’re willing to work, you can find a job. If you&#039;re willing to work, you can find a job.”

How rude.  I am sure all the people who just lost their jobs and are desperate to feed their familes and pay their bills will appreciate Mr. Ditka&#039;s insistance that they aren&#039;t looking hard enough to find a job.  WOW, he needs a realty check.</description>

You know the economy is bad when they have to lay off teachers.  Dallas ISD had to release 500+ teachers this year.  If you have vested years to a profession, it is very difficult to accept a minial job, much less ask for a handout to help you make it past the month.  How out of touch can you be??

		<description>What&#039;s sad about this whole election is to see McCains reputation go down the  drain. He was an honorable man, and I think for the most part he still is. This is apparent with his unwillingness to make race an issue. He deserves more credit for that. 
Having said that, it should also be pointed out that this happened to McCain because he chose the wrong people to run his campaign. People who know nothing but attack politics. So in a sense he deserves some of the criticism.
I think the fundamental problem with McCain is his lack of competency. (compared to Obama) He did the wrong thing in every pivotal point of this election. Palin, Pick, suspend his campaign, debate/no debate, loosing all three debates, to name a few.</description>

Four days seem too long for this circus show. But at least we can get over with this dummy performance.

		<description>Interesting that Ditka supports Palin and McCain.  He spends his time fighting for retired NFL players to get health insurance coverage.  If he supported Obama those players would get coverage and he could spend his time doing something else.  

I wonder what the Republican voters would think about him fighting for a union to support workers!!!!</description>

		<description>Oh yes.. I could find a job, at Burger King or back in construction. But what a waste that would be, since I have been in the computer and networking business, for 15 years. But, you are right , Ditka. I could find a job, I could stand outside home depot and get work laying concrete or perhaps digging up someones sewer line with a pick and shovel. I feel better about the economy and where this government has steered it already.

Oh and by the way, past performance is not indicative of future results. Ditka... you have been a losing coach for decades now.</description>

		<description>Oh, if only Ditka would had entered that Senate race in Illinois four years ago. No one would ever know who Obama was today and Hillary would be poised to win the White House giving us a president who actually knows what she&#039;s doing. Wishful thinking I guess.</description>

		<description>Its funny to hear the previlidged one talking about work. Yes, people may be able to find work flipping burgers at a minimum wage. Even that is getting tough with retailers cutting back. Is that where he wants the country led? Also, what credibility McCain has to lead to this country in right direction now, when he sided with Bush for over 90% of the time?</description>

		<description>I saw a comment about the &quot;selfish&quot; Republicans, just because they want to keep more of what they&#039;ve EARNED.  Who are really the selfish ones?

It isn&#039;t selfish to want the government to stick it to someone else so you can get your piece.

One contributor here says &quot;My husband and I will pay more taxes and guess what?  WE DON&#039;T CARE!&quot;

So, have been been writing an additional donation on the last seven April 15ths to help those less fortunate than you?  Nope, didn&#039;t think so.

Another poster says we need more &quot;programs&quot; to care for __________________ (insert your pet cause here). Aren&#039;t there already enough programs?</description>

		<description>Christie McCullough was a wonderful person and a great teacher.  She died in the Challenger disaster.  I think we were ahead of ourselves.  We sent Christie in space when our space program was not quite ready.

I feel the same way about Sarah.  The world is not quite ready for her.  She&#039;s likable and downhome and folksy, but she lacks the basic skills for the job as VP and potentially president.  Christie was going up in space as a teacher and an observer.  Sarah can&#039;t just observe, she has to act and she quite frankly is not qualified.  Don&#039;t make t he same mistake we made in sending Christie up too soon.

God bless Christie McCullough, she did everything right.  WE were at fault for sending her in space too soon.

		<description>What I don&#039;t get is manufacturing plants are closing daily, thousands plus are losing their jobs at one time.  Who da hell going to hire that many people at one time.  Also, Exxon/Mobile made over 14 billion in one quarter; can anyone tell me how many people they hired during that quarter?  That why tax cuts for corporations do not work, only shareholders make out!</description>
