Over 3,000 dead in the towers on 9/11 - when adding today’s toll, the number of innocent dead from our country is 7,000 - plus more not yet reported at this moment.
Bin Laden is still making fun of shrub and his clowns to this very day. We are in the wrong country fighting a war that is not paying back Bin Laden for his horrendous act. We are wasting tax payer dollars and innocent young lives of soldiers who believed in the lies told my George Bush. The Green Zone now has people hiding in concrete in Iraq. Is Iraq safer? Obviously not.
McCain is going to keep up the same old mindless thinking shrub has done from day one. Screw him.
Obama takes a vacation already and responds “talks will occur” with regards to the economy, sluggish home sales, war, pending wars, etc. He reminds me of shrub. I bet he intends to bring the American people together just like shrub.
Hillary has worked hard and made many good changes. I am for Hillary. She may have mind spasms and mistakes sniper fire for mustard shooting out of a squirt bottle onto her ham sandwich, but she can lead us better than either of the other the two candidates.
The caskets made me say this. Lost lives over evil lies. So sad.

I want you to re-read that second to last paragraph again; third sentence, first part. That is who you want leading this country? Someone who suffers mind spasms and claims to have been under fire when they were not? Just wow.
Obama reminds you of Mr. Bush?
What a load of bullshit.Pretty strange commentary cj.Mr. McCain, while not my first choice, is the only choice. He is also a decorated veteran who has devoted his entire life to public service and deserves a little more respect that a good old “screw him”. The last thing this country needs is more of the same and more Clinton BS in the Whitehouse. We might as well run the country based on public opinion polls and I had way more than enough of that the first time around. Mr. Obama, who I voted for in his senate race, is simply too young and too inexperienced to be the Commander in Cheif. I want John McCain answering that red phone at three in the morning as he is obviously and clearly, of the three, the most qualified to do so.
RIP to those who have passed. Widmark lived a long and remarkable life. Ellis died way too young. Thanks to those and their families who have given so much.
Very sad indeed.

I will vote for McCain if Obama turns out to be the democratic choice. Is that better FB?

Well, only a little, but not really very much at all. Apparently there are a lot of people who feel that way. Many democrats have said they will vote McCain if Mrs. Clinton (self-grandizing C U Next Tuesday) wins the nomination. What say you if they run together on the same ticket? First with Obama on top, then they switch positions with Mrs. Clinton on top. What say ye then? Are you saying that if it is Obama/Clinton then you vote McCain, but if it is Clinton/Obama then you vote donkey style? I am not sure I understand the logic there…

I will vote McCain if Obama name appears anywhere on the ticket.

Instead of holding your nose and voting for someone you don’t REALLY want to… might I suggest an alternative? Did you ever consider voting Libertarian?
