    Too bad he didn’t wear that toga … no underclothing in those days … so it would have been the ancient equivalent of an empty suit …

    Sorry folks … I can’t take more than about 30-45 seconds of this POS at a time … and these naive kool-aid drinkers are just guxzzling it down …

    They said they put down covering on the field to protect the grass … actually it was to make it easier to clean up all the deep piles of BS afterwards …

    Obama said: McCain says he will follow bin Ladin to the gates of Hell , but won’t follow him to the cave where he lives.

    Those are fighting words. That was completely uncalled for.

    McCain is not Bush, no matter how many times Obama says it. McCain has not agreed with Bush 90% of the time.

    And…

    What’s up with the Southern accent???

    Great! So why doesn’t he start with military families? We’ve been advocating for years that we should have FEBH, since our spouses are Fed Govt employees, their families should fall under the same benefit umbrella.

The amount of crap he is spewing,the lies he is carrying out right now concerning Iraq, terrorism and everything else is just freaking too much. How can any human being shovel that much crap and actually be taken seriously. The fact that he thinks we don’t know better, is just maddening.

    OMG…trying to pretend to talk tough and sound like a Conservative is just too much.

    I am going to go throw a football with my daughter. I just can’t stand this anymore.

    Lord, in all honesty, if you care for this country and what it means to the world, do not allow this man to win in three months. Please, I care too much for my children to let this man in the Oval Office.

    I am with you on that one…..I have always said – our military should earn what we pay our Representatives and Senators and they should earn the wages of our military.

    Because it is our Military who PROTECTS us!

    regarding the tax cuts …

    it is smoke and mirrors becassue the way they crunch the numbers …

    it is true that his “numbers” give a bigger tax cut to certain income levels …

    what they fail to point out is that under McCain the Bush cuts become permanent so the tax cut is against those numbers …

    under BO they repeal the Bush cuts first … then his tax cut is against a higher taxable amount so you actually end up with less money …

    It isn’t going to take much. If McCain can’t blow holes through the rice paper thin rhettoric that he spewed, then he really does deserve to lose.

    He gave him more credit than I would have. BS doesn’t fly with me, I don’t care how well it’s delivered.

    Yeah, he’s a great speaker.. But how many professional motivational speakers have run for President, compared to how many great ones there are?

    We need so much more than words to run our country.. I hope people aren’t fooled by the Hollywood version of what a president should be.

    Barack would make a great car salesman..

    Agreed..

    I hope the Hurricane does not cause too much damage anywhere, let alone NOLA. Of course it could be Bobby Jindal’s coming out. Jindal/Pawlenty in 2012 or Pawlenty/Jindal, depending on what happens this year.

    Good night patriots. Tomorrow we see if McCain has sold us completely out.
