Whoa, you know the McCain camp is losing ground when even dyed-in-the-wool and dead in the eyes conservatives are jumping ship. First Bill Kristol abandoned his position as puppetmaster Sarah Palin supporter and told McCain to fire his entire campaign staff, Charlie Crist is much too busy going to Disneyland to help McCain's campaign in Florida and <a href="http://wonkette.com/403475/republican-den

[quote]modern day kids who think 'everything' is their right, while parents have effectively been stripped of parental controls, punshiments and disciplines by politicians, bureaucrats and do-gooders. That, however, is a whole different story.. the wife and I were put through hell by these very same people when they refused us help with our out of control 15 y/o daughter, and 3 years later we are still suffering the consequences of their inaction, so we have no faith in government and very li

[quote]Yep, we in Australia are fairly well informed, particularly with regard to this US Presidential election. Like Jafo said earlier, if the American people see fit to inflict themselves with John McCain and he turns out to be an arsehole (to which there seems very little doubt he is/will be), we get the same piles... as does the rest of the world[/quote] no truer words...lol [quote]I must state, however, that I am not a fan of Fox or any other highly commercialised news service...

it is heartwarming to see such citizen journos like yourselves Bebi + Chonino getting this ugliness out in the open for awareness + discussion - the power of the internet is truly being felt in this election, even tho I was councilled that this post was misplaced in the 'Internet' section & would be more appropo in 'Politics'...whatevs - the video of that old bag at the rally today advising Senator McCain Senator Obama made her nervis cuz he is an 'Arab' & therefore, she cannot trust

[quote] The ads don't influence me, my own research does . Hamas has openly said in public that they support Obama for President. Obama was a former member of the Socialist Party, even though the "fair and balanced" media have been keeping quiet about it. Obama launched his political career with the help of William Ayers, who to this day, has no remorse for what he did. Why would someone who openly hates America, who actually tried to bomb it,

three shout outs I feel I must make in regard to this thread that I am pleased is garnering the response & participation it is, leading up to the most critical election in, I am sure, all of our collective lifetimes and was the reason I posted it in the 1rst place....1. Snidely, you have more patience than I when it comes to the uneducated & willfully ignorant 2.
