Topic: A question i would like to see on tuesday for the presidenta | |
---|---|
There are so many people in our own country that are starving and out of jobs and money. What do u think about cutting the money that u spend on the campaign and give to our fellow americans that truly need the money?
I really would love to have someone bring that up. Its just sickening the amt of money they raise and spend on bashing each other when there are so many people that can't even make their house payment or buy groceries |

yup.
and the 700 billion in bailouts with 1.7 trillion in additional earmarks served up to get republicans on board the 400 plus page democrats version of Bush's 3 page request is a paltry sum compared to Iraq!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Iraq costs 10 billion/month according to nobama. That's 120 billion/year and winding down now. This little bump in the road by the liberals in Congress is only 2.4 times that amount. you are kidding , aren't you? well? aren't you? |

I feel so sorry for the families who have lost their homes and struggling to raise familes. Many of my friends are in this position.
However, what about the people who are single and struggling? I've been out of work since January and in Yonkers, NY the layoffs are rising, property taxes are going up another 7% (after a 15% increase just this year). I was raised to remember that other people have it worse than I do -- but the truth is I'm struggling to pay my rent, eat, pay for electric and heat, and to keep my 12 yr old car; and I have no health insurance. It sucks and it really is scary to be in this position. Some people in this election really need to be in our position and see what the reality of the "struggling working class people" go through each day just to survive. |

I totally agree, can u imagine between the two candiates how much money the american people could have to help them out? |

I don't know how government sleeps at night pissing away money like that (our money they tax and retax). People are in need in this country but they send money to countries who hate us and don't help our own. People that were hit with Katrina are still suffering -- no one gives a sh*t!!!! |

Obama wants to pull out of Iraq and blow Afghanistan off the map.
and then take the money that funds the Iraq war and spend it on his "new and improved NEW DEAL" free lunch programs. We all heard him say that at the first debate He is not going to listen to feeding poor people with public funds. He isn't going to even acknowledge that government spending must be reined in. McCain does. But he's an old idiot in the way, huh? no, nobomba has you back. just lean back and watch him catch you. |

barry nobama, is your only hope to get elected to try and bribe voters with free lunch programs and expanded entitlements?
Is it only cops, firemen and teachers that are the average American worker in your mind? After all, they are government workers, not the average Americam worker. The average American worker is the garbage collector, the carpenter and the receptionist in every office in every building on every street in every city in every state of all 57 states. What say you, Harvard law Professor with one class to teach a year, or maybe three, if you finished a year? How about finishing what you started and living up to your promise to Illinoisans to see your 6 year term through as a junior wet behind the ears Senator? yeah, right...... |

Uh...if you voted for Kerry you should have nothing to say about McCain's wealth.
That's a stupid arguement to make but so typical of DEMS. |
