I just don't know Barr and havnt seen anything about him...

Obama has changed his campaign so much there is a HUGE trust issue there. Also he lacks alot of exp.

I watch FOX so you can blame them for some of my thoughts lol.
I really just wanted to hear your facts as to why you don't like the other guys.

As I see it...Barr could be the best man for the job but you wont vote for him because you don't know anything about him.

Obama could be the best man for the job but CHANGE...his foundation of his campaign seems to show trust issues. It would seem to me a fluid person that could Adapt to any situation, Overcome any situation, Improvise along the way would be something your comfortable with. Isn't that they military way...Adapt, Overcome, Improvise???

Bugs bunny could be running also, or Robin Williams...and you still don't have any reasons so far as to why the 20+ negative items don't seem to sway you away from mccain. And you don't seem to list any negative items about the other guys except experience.

Then again...I think it scares me the most that mccain could die in office and we would be stuck with palin...Experience comments here???

Ok let me get this right.

1-McSame has 7 er 8 houses for a net worth about 6 million. Palin rips off alaska's citizens of tax money to fly her kids around. Does 150k shopping sprees and buys her daughter a $600 purse. All the while she is being investigated for trying to have her X brother in-law fired....And These are NORMAL PEOPLE...Holy Hell.

2-Isn't the president supposed to set an example for the country?? Educated, married to the same woman for years, leadership qualities, helping the people, raising kids, etc.

3-OR a mother with her 17 years old pregnant daughter, unmarried of course.

4-Yeah I think I got the picture right. Awesome seeing that america thinks that is Perfect pair to run the country. WOW is all I can say...WOW.
1-First his name is McCain not McSame. Alot of that money and houses are the ones his wife inhereted from her fathers Beer distributorship. Next Palin was not the one selecting the clothes that were bought it was someone from the RNC. And I would like to kill my ex-brother in law for the way he treated my sister so hers is getting off light.

2- I will follow a war hero's example before a senator that vote "here" to most of the legislation that he could have made a difference on and married to a woman who is not proud to be an American.

3-Real people have those things happen to their children and they love and stand by them throughout the ordeal.

4-It is much prefered by many to have the country led by someone we can find a true history about that spans decades rather than a questionable candidate which may lead us into a dark place in our history, who has no personal history that can stand up to the test of bright daylight.

1. When you can't remember how many houses you have or where they are located, you probably shouldn't run a country.

2. War Hero...See the many posts I have made including links where McCain has admitted to signing a confession of war crimes and giving information about his fellow troops during Vietnam. Please show me the HERO in that. As listed it should be called traitor and thus he shouldn't have even ran for any office with that record.

3. True real people do have things happen. Parents that educate their children on Love, Marriage, safe sex, and consequences of life tend to have children when planned. Notice I say TEND. I know I have had my first daughter this year and I planned it. And I made my trips around the block in the past and NEVER got into any trouble like palin's daughter.

4. Wouldn't a history of a loving marriage, highly educated, community leader, good children be some sign of their moral character? Or do you prefer adultry, abandonment, treason as the moral compass for this country??

I love how the title of this "Some comparisons between Candidates" and yet some believe this would be a fair and balanced thread not extreme bias towards the left,but liberals will be liberals.

I will comment to this later when I am off work because unlike Republicans you liberals don't work and have time to post hate threads...

Cause no one has vacation time...yeah OK.

And here I thought the democrats represented the working class. Repubs are the multi-millionaires protecting their 250k incomes and higher from taxes...forcing the dems to pay the bill instead of borrowing to the hilt.
BTW balanced would be 2-3 dems in here with the 3-4 repubs arguing. Instead its just Me Myself and I alond with you 4 repubs in here.

And if I don't mind saying so...I think I am doing decent in the debate :D
I haven't begun to debate with you yet...
< Registered Independent voting Libertarian. Oh might man of facts. :D
Education does not equal character.

Would you have the character to stand up to your mentor and tell him "Your anti-American ranting is not right."?

Would you have the character to leave your mentor?

Would you have the character not to associate with a known domestic terrorist, a known radical?

Would you have the character to tell your wife that her statement that only now is she proud of the United States is something that you are concerned about?

Would you have the character to stand up to these people through the years, even if you knew it would hurt your chances of being in politics?

Would you have the character to sit on a flight deck being launched into a deadly war, time and time again?

Would you have the character to endure capture and torture for 7 years?

No one is perfect but it is easy for me to see that the man with MORE character here is John McCain.

If I had to trust someone with my life, my family's life, it would be John McCain.

This country needs leaders with character, courage, and the willingness to do what they believe is RIGHT, not what is the best for their party, or how it will enable their political party to remain in power.

I believe John McCain will do what is necessary. I believe Obama will do, say, whatever he can to make you feel good, but is not a man of character or courage. I think the way he has lived his life, and who he has choose to associate with is proof of that.

If he is elected president, I can only hope that he is so concerned about pleasing everyone he will do nothing, much like ex president and still 2nd biggest looser (Carter being 1st) Bill Clinton.

What I like about Obama is when Bush took office he was driving a sub compact and doing drugs with some pakastanian in new york. When Bush leaves office he's a multimillionare. Then he wants to tell me how bad of shape America is and how he has to change everything because 8 yrs of bush only make him rich and living the american dream. Must have been good enough for him but not for us. He must be gonna put us on the fast track to wealth....It's called welfare....
Notice there is no links backing this crock of chit up.
even if there were, never believe what you read in the papers/internet. it's like hollywoods "days of our lives"....bunch of BS to make americans excited.
BTW balanced would be 2-3 dems in here with the 3-4 repubs arguing. Instead its just Me Myself and I alond with you 4 repubs in here.

You are doing a great job bouncy, If you weren't good I would have lost interest debating with you long ago..... You do have to get away from the same stuff you here on "The Obama Network" everynight. MSNBC is not the best place to get your info. All those wacko liberal blogs ain't much better. Wouldn't it be cool if all the mainstream media was letting McCain have a pass on everything. Wow this would be a run away. What's bad is, as bad as Bush was hated, Then all the media tearing up everytime he desends from the heavens and speaks to us common folks "that cling to are guns and religion". Obama should have had this won months ago. Yet McCain is still hanging on, Why is that Bouncy? Could it be that people don't trust his double talk.

I surf all over the net. I try to read several sources for each item. Some have better impact as the flaming liberals yell out their arguments.

Sometimes I think people grow up with parents that vote one way. The kids see it and just copy it mindlessly. When I was in 10th grade there was a mock election. I realized then that I was in a repub town. The teacher in all fairness asked the student...who are your parents voting for? And damned if they all weren't following their parents...EVEN ME.

With that being said, I quickly learned to read about the people and see how I agree or not agree with the things presented to me.

Would I vote for an adulter...NO
Would I vote for a traitor...NO
Would I vote for someone that deserted his wife because she was disfigured...NO
Would I vote for someone I think will destroy the country with outragous spending...NO
Would I vote for a person that will continue a war I never agreed with to begin with..Iraq...NO
Do I weigh in the VP and a possible replacement for our president...YEP
Do I think the VP can do the job of the president...YEP
Do I think Palin is qualified...HELL NO
Do I think Biden is qualified...Yep.

Do I think all the other BS on both sides matters...Not sure but don't think so.

Do I think a good part of america are sheep...following the herd...Cant think for themselves...sadly YEP.

Do I think the world is consumed with greed, corruption, self worth and all other forms of self destruction...YEP See banking CEOS and their millions in bonuses. See lawyers...nuff said. See auto CEOs like Lutz who destroyed chrysler. And the list continues without end.

Do I see a pretty sad future...unfortunately yes. And its not in my control to stop it alone.

People say if McCain is elected a race war may start in the USA between minorities and White people...but who is really pure white...NO ONE.

People also say the USA is coming to a civil war soon also. Think V for Vendetta...and I agree I think its coming soon. Citizens against government...or even our own military.

This post is not my fire and facts but more my opinion. Sad as it is to say...I think we are somewhat screwed on a run away train. And neither guy running for election will ever have our best interest at heart.

Your right that neither candidate is gonna help the country any, we just gotta survive for 4 yrs. The biggest reason I think, Obama can't be allowed in office is the supreme court justices he will appoint. I just can't bring myself to believe in abortion, "it's my clinging to religion thing" So his judges are gonna try to run rampid with the partial birth abortion thing. Those guy's are gonna be there forever.
Would I vote for a man who thinks we need a new bill of rights NO
would I vote for a man that thinks that the constitution is a negative document NO
would I vote for a man that thinks that country folk "cling to are guns and religion NO
would I vote for a man that is going to legalize all forms of abotion and make the taxpayers pay for them NO
would I vote for a man that's gonna reinact the fairness doctorine that's gonna rob us of free speech NO
would I vote for a man that we know absolutely nothing about, and some questionable friends that he only denounces when he gets into heat over them NO
Would I vote for the most liberal member of the senate NO

I could go on for three or four pages and then get started on Biden.

Well it's over for me I just voted early b/c I will be out of town next Tuesday at least part of the day. So carry on with this useless thread as we can't really change each others minds even with all the truths and lies that have been spoken and printed since this whole campaign started.
How about this one?

Health care for 47 million people, 24 million of who are illegal aliens.

So when the old folks need heart surgery there won't be enough doctors, hospitals to go around. The 20 year old illegal alien will have his/her necessary surgery and the old person will be told NO because the 20 year old has so much more life left.

I don't like either candidate, I just like McCain more than Osama.
If you want to add to the confusion then what about the Aunt that has lived in public housing since 2002 when she lost her bid to stay in the US and just hid until found by the media recently. She is up for deportation back to Kenya, but has lived tax free in the US in public housing for 4 years without being caught. How is that possible.
Did she have help in hiding and sucking the Americans dry?
He lives in a mansion and his aunt lives in poverty, and his brother in Kenya is living on less than a dollar a day. Obama is here to take care of us like he does his family.
Interesting point Jonb. Do you have links I am interested in reading about that.
No but fox news is all over it, Obama say's that he didn't know where his sister was. She is here illegally and is living in goverment housing even though a judge ordered her to be sent back to Kenya 4 yrs ago. Wonder how she is here illegally and is living in goverment housing in poverty. Google it the blogs should be all over it by now.
