Dave, you need to fix the size of image--it is covering your article.



Hillary or McCain.
Never Obama.

What a joke! that Osama will never make it he is a walking joke.

AMERICAN-FIRST9:21PMMay 11th 2008

WILL BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA REALLY TELL MILLIONS OF AMERICANS THEY DON’T COUNT?

MICHIGAN HAS ANOTHER VOTE IN AUGUST — PUT OBAMA AND CLINTON ON THE MICHIGAN TICKET!

IF OBAMA DOES NOT AGREE TO THIS — HE WILL BE TELLING MILLIONS OF AMERICANS THAT THEY DON’T COUNT!

OBAMA ONLY CARES ABOUT WHAT HE WANTS.

HE WAS ON THE FLORIDA BALLOT. COUNT FLORIDA’S VOTES.

IF OBAMA DOES NOT AGREE TO THIS — THEN HE IS NOT AN AMERICAN.

WE HAVE 50 STATES. LET ALL OF AMERICAN'S VOTES COUNT.

DON’T FORGET 9/11, WRIGHT, AYERS, HAMAS, MALCOLM X, REZKO, FARRAKHAN, OBAMA’S ANTI-AMERICAN WRIGHT AND MANY TERRORIST TIES. WE REALLY DON’T KNOW WHO OBAMA IS.

COME NOVEMBER, WE'LL SEE A NEW SET OF RULES — THE BIASED MEDIA AND THE DNCCAN'T PROTECT THE GOLDEN BOY FOREVER!

IF OUR DELEGATES IGNORE OUR “VOICES” AND DON'T SPEAK FOR US — VOTE THEM OUT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. CLEAN OUT MEMBERS OF CONGRESS WHO DON’T DO THEIR JOB!

VOTE COUNTRY — NOT PARTY — McCAIN OR HILLARY!

WE ARE AMERICANS FIRST!

SMALL-TOWN AMERICAN9:32PMMay 11th 2008

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY WE DO NOT HAVE THE SAME PRIMARY DATE FOR ALL STATES AND A CAP ON THE AMOUNT THE CANDIDATES ARE ALLOWED TO SPEND --- NOT THE ONE WITH THE MOST MONIES ABLE TO HANDLE THE PRESS, THE TV STATIONS, THE NEWSPAPERS, ETC. NOT THE ONE WITH THE MOST TIES TO TERRORISTS AND ANTI-AMERICANS.

THE OLD EXPRESSION --- MONEY TALKS, IS SO TRUE. HOW CAN ANYONE DENY THAT HILLARY WOULD BE A BETTER CANDIDATE IN NOVEMBER?

IS IT BECAUSE OBAMA IS AN AFRO-AMERICAN AND NOONE WANTS TO TALK OR BE AGAINST HIS CHURCH? IT TOOK HIM A LONG TIME TO FINALLY OUST HIS PASTOR AND MENTOR OF 20-YEARS. AND ONLY BECAUSE HE KNEW HE HAD TO IF HE WANTED TO CONTINUE --- AT THAT TIME HE NEEDED THE VOTES OF THE 8,000 CHURCH MEMBERS.

HILLARY WAS GREAT ALL THE WAY....SHE COULD HAVE REALLY STIRRED THINGS UP. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE?

HILLARY CAN REALLY GET THIS COUNTRY ON THE RIGHT TRACK.

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA AND THE DNC ARE DESTROYING AMERICA.

EASTCOAST10:03PMMay 11th 2008

I hear the Swift Boat bells a-ringing! It's music to my ears!

THINK ABOUT IT! Obama does have a lot of terrorist friends.

We really don’t need a “former” Muslim, so-called “Christian” (ho attends an anti-American church, which spews "God Damn America" to its congregation), in the White House. OBAMA DENOUNCES WRIGHT AFTER HIS POLL NUMBERS DROP.

WRIGHT IS A "WOUND" FOR OBAMA --- BUT, IT'S SELF-INFLICTED! OBAMA STUCK WITH WRIGHT FOR 20 YEARS AND LIED ABOUT WHAT HE KNEW. TOO LITTLE --- TOO LATE.

Obama's anti-American wife doesn’t qualify as a first lady.

Obama can’t make up his mind who he is --- and we don’t need him pushing the “button”! He is not a uniter. He does not have a political track record. He couldn’t answer tough questions in the debate, so now he’s making false promises.

COME NOVEMBER, WE'LL SEE A NEW SET OF RULES --- THE DNC AND THE BIASED MEDIA CAN'T PROTECT THE GOLDEN BOY FOREVER!

Brian10:12PMMay 11th 2008

Okay, to anyone who is mentioning any democrats in the posts, are either of them even implicitly mentioned in this article?

NO - so stop posting your same garbage which you infiltrate every other article with.

Once in a while I come across a statement that needs to gbe repeated and once again I am proud to be a contryman of this writer.

"I have labored through this site. Where else but in a country such as this one, could people have the constitutional right to freely speak their minds (no matter how illogical, biased, erroneous, well-thought out or otherwise)? To women, African Americans, any people of color, Americans period who threaten to refuse to vote because the candidate of their choice may not be selected, I say "SHAME ON YOU!!!" You spit on the efforts of your predecessors. You take for granted the fundamental right that other people ,in other countries of the world would, and do, die for. To those who threaten to vote for someone whose fundamental principles they do not believe in out of spite, "SHAME ON YOU!!!!" You leave your future and the future of your families to "the powers that be." Do not complain when policies that do not help you, that leave you out on the fringes, that strip away any hope that you or your children could ever obtain the American dream, and that depend upon your myopia, phobias, miseducation, and apathy are put into place. You have allowed that to happen. Do not whine. It is a sad day when people resort to name-calling, mud slinging, backbiting, and fear mongering to express their opinions. But we have the right to do so here in America.
All I am saying is this: let's not take the liberties that we have fought and died for, both abroad and here in this country, for granted. America, as great as she is, is not perfect. She has made her mistakes-some small and some egregious. But, she has also shown herself to be a country capable of accomplishing great things.
I look at the way the world views us and I'm not amazed that they hate us, or at best, don't trust us. Look at the way that we treat each other...look at the way we behave...listen to how we sound. We sound spoiled, ungrateful and spiteful. We sound small-minded, hate-filled and petty, but then, again, we, here in America have the right to do so.
I love this country in spite of her flaws and because of her potential to do great things. I see her clearly; I am not deluded. I will speak out when she does things that are counterproductive and could prove to be detrimental to her lofty objectives. I praise her when she rises to her potential and behaves as the leader she is, and should be. I acknowledge her diversity and I embrace her commonality. We truly are more alike than we are different, but it is those differences that make us interesting...not better or worse...just different. We are all, at the end of the day, American.
It would behoove us to carefully watch how we accept labels as being the truth. Opinion, no matter eloquently or forcefully stated, is just that...opinion, and should be weighed as just that. We should be mindful of what lessons we are teaching our young. Do we really want to impart in our young a sense of entitlement? Do we really want to teach our young that when we don't get our way, the proper way to behave is to pout, or to belittle or to name call or to result to holding someone "emotionally hostage?" What happened to "fight hard, do your best, but play fair?" What has happened to learning how to "pick one's battles, drop back and punt, timing is everything, I'll be back, it's not how you win or lose, but how you play the game, and doing unto others as you would have them do unto you?" We cannot teach what we do not know. We cannot provide what we do not have. We cannot lead if we, ourselves, have lost our way. Our children are watching; the world is watching. What lessons are we really teaching them?
(Lastly, one note to Michigander. PLEASE, do your homework and carefully research your resources. Liberation theology does not teach hatred for anyone, but rather a moral obligation to do everything to relieve the suffering of ANY oppressed people based upon the teachings of Jesus Christ, who "came to set the captives free." There are hundreds of books on the subject. Martin Luther King Jr. preached that doctrine. Mother Theresa lived it. Ghandi practiced it. It is evident in the behavior of anyone who not only speaks out but also works to fight against oppression. Study, read, question, and research...THINK. Any ideology can be perverted and/or "bastardized.")
Jesus warned that we should not judge least we be judged with the same measure by which we judge, wise words for any human being, being imperfect and therefore subject to error. People who live in glass houses should not throw stones. Remember the law of reciprocity...what goes around, comes around. Every dog has its day. A prophet is without honor, even in his own country. Timing is everything. You gotta know when to hold "um and know when to fold "um. True power knows that you can wipe out your opponent and choosing not to. There is such a thing as "grace under fire". A house divided, will fall. Perhaps, we should study the doctrine of reconciliation which simply stated says this: I know that you have done me wrong. I forgive you. Now, what can we do, TOGETHER, to make sure that this does not happen again?
TEAM... together each achieves much.

I stopped reading this "article" with the first paragraph. Carly Fiorina, whose term as CEO of HP was an absolute disaster, is now speaking up for John McCain. GOPers must be hoping that she doesn't apply any of her
All I will say is NEVER OBAMA

suzanne8:46AMMay 12th 2008

I watched the interview yesterday morning and she is quite good a dodging the important questions all with a smile and George did not hold her to task, he just went on to then next question. She stuck to her talking points and did not bat an eye when George tried to take it further.
I don't see what good she did for McCain but distance him from a group he needs desperately.
