History has proven , if you don't look back you can never move forward without making the same mistakes over & over. Bush/McCain/republican rule and same policies BIG MISTAKE, thats why we are looking back you putz LOL Republican idealogy LESS regulation, leave big biz alone, less taxes for big biz..........YUP that really worked well didnt it, and you are all like a bunch of zombies wanting to let it all happen again Have a great day. LIFE IS GOOD!

I love PWing

Surely there were preconditions to talking to that Dictator Saddam. I do like that picture of Saddam & Rummy shaking hands

That Firetruck is too cool. They put Robert to work Great pics, looks like a great show

Man McCain is hitting everyone. All I ever hear him talk about 90% is Obama this and Obama that, not much about his plans. Probably because he has different plans every other week or every other state he goes to. But wow, now he's bashing the crap out of Bush too, saw a couple minutes on meet the press and just trashed Bush and I heard Palin doing the same thing all week Thank God McCain said at the beginning of this campaign he wanted to talk about issues and not go negative. If he calls this positive, I'd hate to see his negative stuff LOL I almost felt bad for Bush today...........LOL Not Go McCain in 2016

Now take Rods post in context. He is not saying Keating is worse than Ayers so dont go crazy on him. This post is right on, they both have made errors in judgement, but I do think McCain is doing and saying a lot of crap, because he just isnt on top of his game and can't sell himself as the McCain of old good post Rod....and stop getting beth in trouble LOL

I acknowledge he has been mixed up with some jerk offs, sometimes you don't see your own mistakes until later or you just play in the same Field at times to get ahead to accomplish your goals. But yes marks against him for sure As for surrounding himself, he's keeping better company these day and I hope I pray, he goes to the middle, gives and takes and works with both sides. I hope he's a great prescient if he makes it, because he will be the only one we got for 4-8 years. If he is not a great President I hope he is a good one

Thanks Ant. The thing about me is I am left, right, somewhere in the middle and sometimes I dont have a clue. Just like most americans.

Oops, that Rod always gets you in trouble lol

I'm not commenting on Beths post. But you are right Ayers should have been put in jail for life. If I went to blow up the Pentagon, I would figure I would be in jail forever. You are right he should not be anything. He should be a skid row bum. I was rebellious Ayers was a terrorist, you blow stuff up to kill or try to kill thats what you are called

Thats part of the reason I dont want McCain as President....poor judgment. look at the way his campaign has been run, his choices in the people he puts around him now, all lobbyist. He picks Palin because she was a women and he took what 2 days to vet her. Who picks someone in two days to be VP, I bet no other president or contender ever made that choice in two days, with as little as they knew about her. heck they knew she was being investigated in Alaska. Why would they want the headache of an investigation during the campaign, couldn't have McCain used better judgment and just picked someone else and maybe checked them out better Hey at least I didn't see one democrats name on that list........Obamas Savings & Loans, they went unregulated and cost us billions, when will we learn. Now its not costing us billions its costing trillions I wish there was a perfect answer or choice, there isn't and never will be

This thread is titled Did McCain make a mistake. I really want to ask why the RNC paid out $150K for Palins clothes, couldn't they have paid less, much less, didn't they know it would come out and just look silly, bad, wasteful and take away from the candidate People are struggling, theres Republicans running for office that need money from the RNC and they just do what I think is a bonehead move ...showing waste like this was just stupid. Its like a kid in a candy store mentality Not trying to start a fight, just wondering why they would do it like they did

We have two choices this year. Obama total change from past 8 years, McCain say 50% the same as we have had and the rest is so unknown with him now. I just dont really have a clue what McCain is, he is so all over the place I just don't think he has a clue and will just revert back to the status quo of the past 8 years. I dont feel for large corps, they get breaks and loopholes and they still leave the country, they still rip off the USA. Give them what they wanted lower taxes, nafta, less regulation and they couldn't self regulate themselves, they have lowered wages, lowered benefits, cut jobs, used cheap illegal labor and now have screwed us all. I feel if Obama changes some of the laws and says you leave USA you get no tax breaks matter of fact you have to pay more taxes, screw them, tell them they can't do biz in the USA for 2 or 3 years. what do you think they will all leave. No we are the biggest consumers in the world and we pay more for everything, they won't leave us. ] I know I worry about taxes, I dont want people who pay no taxes getting refunds for nothing, but I also dont want the corps and real rich to hire lawyers & accountants and use every loop hole so they pay squat and all along lower our standards of living There is no sure answer, we have 2 to choose from Mac or Obama

I'm not sure about that Scott, McCain was 1 of 5 that got something put on record for inappropriate something. I can't remember what but there was something. It might have been just a slap on the wrist, but McCain himself has called it one of his worst mistakes. I' don't know enough about it and really couldn't care less they all deal with some pretty shady people some of them like Keating are finally called to justice, most just move on and make millions of $$$$ more He wasn't found completely innocent by the Senate. Anyway being found Innocent by the senate is like a Wh*re being tried for prostitution in a Who*ehouse lol

*** McCain vs. Bush: Be sure not to miss McCain’s exclusive interview with the Washington Times, in which the Arizona senator lashes out at President Bush. “Sen. John McCain on Wednesday blasted President Bush for building a mountain of debt for future generations, failing to pay for expanding Medicare and abusing executive powers, leveling his strongest criticism to date of an administration whose unpopularity may be dragging the Republican Party to the brink of a massive electoral defeat. ‘We just let things get completely out of hand,’ he said of his own party's rule in the past eight years.” A very senior GOP strategist emails Politico’s Mike Allen in response: “Lashing out at past Republican congresses instead of Pelosi and Reid, and echoing your opponent's attacks on you instead of attacking your opponent, and spending 150,000 hard dollars on designer clothes when congressional Republicans are struggling for money, and when your senior campaign staff are blaming each other for the loss in The New York Times [Magazine] 10 days before the election, you’re not doing much to energize your supporters.” Oh snap. Just thought this was interesting little piece

God did give us a lot and just maybe thats why people are turning to Obama. Some very intelligent people, people from both sides, maybe they are using their frontal lobes and finally saying that enough is enough, trickle down hasn't worked, deregulation hasn't worked, the days of waste has to stop, millions & millions of people adding to the uninsured roles has to stop, the days of being divided has to stop. And just maybe Obama will use his frontal lobes and all others in congress and truly work with both sides, compromise for the better good of our country. And maybe this is our test from God, maybe this is our day & time of reckoning. Can we as a country, the people, the corporations, the goobermint come together and give & take, even if it is a black man, with questionable credentials, with a mixed and challenged background. Can Barak Hussein Obama, can we, can the movers & shakers finally come together with the leadership of a new President and start to heal as a nation, start to do things for all and not just one or for self. Nothing will happen over night, but we need to change and maybe God is putting us to a test, bringing us to the brink. We have to change things, if we get through these tough times there will be other tough times and we could now or in the future collapse as a world leader. Greed and waste has brought down other great people & governments. We are pretty messed up as a people & country now, not just the economy, but how we are so divided and the me generation, the poor parenting and our many other faults. we have to change, so maybe this is the time if Obama is president do we keep fighting, if he extends his hand to the other side, do you slap it away or work together. I hope we work together in time, everything takes time, but if we don't work together soon we will run out of time and gods test may be a failing test of us as a people & nation I'm no religious person, not a great Christan by many standards, but I do pray and hope theres a God and I hope he will always look out for us. If not, if we dont use what God gave us , we all may just go to Hell in a basket and it won't be Barak Obamas fault, it will be our fault

God will help us Mike, maybe God is helping us by Obama possibly being President and maybe hopefully God will help Obama be a great president. Ever look at it that way? From what I understand God can work in many different ways.

I think Sarah Palin was a GREAT pick..........................For Obamas team LOL

And he's a Muslim terrorist who is trying to sign up millions of voters through Acorn and Obamas Mamma is a ***** too. Oh ya he's a socialist liberal pig. can Muslims be called pigs. Oh ya did I mention he's BLACK.........oh my god. Plus he's going to bring more goobermint to you and I. Ha Ha Na Na

Mark of strength & willingness to act. Or lie and cheat the rules Sounds like Chenney no wonder you righties like her. They all think they are above the rules and laws. They write their own laws She's her own Weapon of Mass Destruction. But at least she dresses nice LOL

Ha Ha Na Na my candidate is better than yours

I have watched and listened to Joe Biden for over a couple decades and like him very much. Now to answer your question..... I have NO clue what the heck he was saying or why Joe is well known to put his foot in his mouth on occasion "Chosen one from the messiah" you know McCain would have had a better chance if he and his followers didnt talk all this silly stuff. Most Americans are just really sick of it, got it from the last 8 years of Bush Chenney and now many Americans are rebeling against the negative silly, mean stuff. So keep it up so Hussien Obama can get a landslide win

What do we know, we are just crazy left wing liberals. Thank God we have all these right wingers to save us from ourselves. Bush has the country going great maybe we can get him in for another 4 years. Or we can just put Mac in

What was it for years the Republicans LOVED Powell, they talked about running him as President, now he is scum, just for voicing his opinion ( the opining of a very knowledgeable man). Man you republicans sure can turn on a National Hero and Statesman like Powell, McCain is going to be in deep chit when he loses. Hope you Republicans don't try to hang him for loosing

Unfocused, I think thats how a lot of people think he will be as a president. You can talk bad or go after your opponent but thats all he does. Like I said he has no real anything, for people to cling onto, except his past. We need a forward thinker and I think that is how Obama is being seen now and not all over the place McCain. I think its his age, his personality nd definitely his handlers
