Nice to see how many people beleive the attack ads and don't bother to read a candidates policy statements. Recipe for disaster Combine ignorance, gullibility, fear, the inability to read, economic uncertainty, apathy, racism, classism and mix well. Sprinkle with misinformation. The above recipe will yield the fall of a once great nation and will serve the country. well. you must not be talking about me.. because i checked out past voting patterns.. i read some of the "action plans" if thats what you want to call them.. i checked out the potental presidents... and made my choice from there.. i dont have sat. and live in the middle of nowhere so i dont get anything without satelite... so everything i know.. i learned because i investigated... to anyone who is reading.. yes i suck at spelling.. but not because im stupid... just because i dont feel its needed to spell check on a social site... i dont ask you to grammar check.. dont ask me to spell check.. thank you.

Silly me, when posting on a public site I feel I owe fellow posters and readers one basic courtesy. Spelling and readability...I see as a sign of respect to those that read and post. Perhaps we were raised differently. Respecting others, even those I disagree with is important. When you get right down to brass tacks I have more respect for people on this site who post and who follow that up with real involvement in their communities than I do for lazy a$$es who do nothing. I don't jump on people for every error. I make them as well. I will readily admit however that I do make some assumptions about posters who rant and rave in barely readable posts then call me names or call me stupid. Makes my day when that happens. I know I am hitting a nerve. Now, I am going to pour myself a whisky and toast to our future. Here's to you as good as you are, Here's to me as bad as I am, But as good as you are, And as bad as I am, I'm just as good as you are, As bad as I am! /tips the glass

. Obama and Biden Voted for Bridge to Nowhere By John Powers, Chicago Daily Observer August 31, 2008 Now that Alaska is front and center in the news again, it is a good time to catch up on a favorite story, The Bridge to Nowhere, using the Washington Post US Congress Votes Database. Though Gov. Palin originally supported the earmark spending on the Ketchikan bridge ("to nowhere), she eventually killed the project, chosing to spend Federal money on other infrasturcture programs. However, Sen. Biden and Sen. Obama voted for funding the Bridge, even when given a second chance by Sen. Tom Coburn, who proposed shifting earmark funds to Katrina relief. Sen. McCain did not vote on the Coburn Amendment, though he is on record as opposing the Ketchikan bridge earmark. Source: cdobs.com wasted space............???????????????? no bridge across this

Would we even be discussing this if not for Palin's lying about supporting the bridge to begin with?

What I have to say is, who is tired of all the b.s. going on with these political figures and not one word they speak comes from the truth within their hearts or from the cares of the real American people. They are all like brood vipers ready to strike at one another. I say put the focus on whats going on in the real world which they apparently dont seem to live in. Do you agree, if not, do not comment, for it would only be a waste of space. I think Obama and Palin have lived close to the level of a typical American. Obama still was paying college loans when he hit it big with his first book. Palin is raising five kids on a salary that's not likely to be excessive. McCain is the furthest removed from a typical American reality imo. yet obama the "typical american" wants to jack taxes to outragious levels... wants to make it unbelevably easy for illeagels.. (including people posing as "regular" illeagels but are in fact terrorists) to get into our country and pull our troops out immeadietly with no plans for recovery.... lemme think... uuummmNO sorry i wasted space there too.. lol Somebody absorbed all their brainwashing at the proper levels I see
