No matter how anyone may take a stance (right, left, middle or side-wise), no one can question that this country is in trouble.

Regardless of how I registered many years ago, I have always voted for the individual who is the best candidate to be placed in the position as president of the United States. In addition, I believe in the scale of justice. In other words, we need an even scale for both Democrat and Republican representatives. For that reason, look at the statistics. No, not the media. In fact, the media creates so much “spin” that people really do not know what to believe. If you do not research the material presented, you do not know the truth.

It appears we will be faced with a complete turn around (the scale will be largely tipped to the far left). It also appears that we will be faced with universal logic. I do not believe there is anyone (whether Democrat or Republican) who does not want change for the better. But, drastic change is not a realistic approach. And, if the candidate is not truthfully forthcoming with this change, we will be in a world of hurt.

So many times I have heard people in regret because of a vote they placed for a candidate. Many do not have the time to research the issues at stake and where an individual candidate actually stands. They rely solely on the commercials we see on television which have been cut and pasted so heavily.

In addition, look at what Obama has spent on this campaign to get elected? The millions of dollars speak for themselves. Why doesn’t he and his campaign put aside some of this money to help those who are truly suffering and/or in need? Instead, take a piece of pie (as is quoted from his partner) from someone who has more and give it away to those less fortunate). Will Obama and his wife give away some of their pie?

The reality of Obama’s health plan is that he is in support of keeping the people who are healthy, healthy with health preventative testing. That is great. But where does that leave those who already have health issues? For those who are currently healthy, you are blessed. In addition, your health can change in an instant regardless of your age.

He also is in support of health care for all children. On its face, of course that is good. That does not include adults. Also, he has indicated he will penalize the parent who does not provide their child with coverage. He was reluctant during debate to indicate exactly what that penalty would be.

In an earlier comment, I wrote about where I believe our stance is as a nation and worldwide concern. Is it no small wonder that Americans are so challenged? Change is good. But, not change that will lead us down a one-way road of regret.

The election is just around the corner. God bless us all. Goodness knows, we certainly will need it.

I can see quite well thank you. And this “bleeding heart liberal” ia well prepared to defend himself not to mention support those who are fighting on my behalf.

I just don’t see how bombing people back to the stone age is the solution to a rather complex issue. Men who think so are overcompensating for something.

If the Iranians do anything overtly stupid between now and then, such as actually deploy even a low yield nuclear device outside their borders, then all bets are off and the Persian Sea of Glass is a done deal.

By the way, if you are an Obamabot, get down on your knees and thank whatever deity you pray to that I am not George W. Bush. I am not hindered by the plethora of non-Rovian thoughts that gentleman has.

Who shot missiles at Saudi Arabia in 91′? “The target was a CITY.” What city? Where are these chainguns and laser point systems deployed? What are they called? What are the divisions and battalions called?

Even making the assumption that everything you said is true,(and that’s a big assumption), are you making a case to attack Iran based on the premise that Houston refines 60% of our crude oil imports and silkworms are not reliable based on the 100% protection of the oil drilling, refining and shipping infrastructure of chainguns and laser point systems? Are you saying that?!!!!!!? Do you smoke marijuana or drop acid? I thought this was a right-wing site? Who let the hippie in?

Very early into this campaign I decided I would listen openly to both sides. I do know one thing, I do not want someone entertaining the thought of corporate table negotiations when the lives of our soldiers and the American people are hanging on a limb.

The United States throughout history has maintained the position that we are not vulnerable. Even with the horrific losses of 9/11, it seems that we have forgotten how vulnerable we really are.

Why cannot people simply understand that these people do not care about us (realistically hate us)? Yes, the economy is a major problem. However, if and when we are the recepient of another vicious attack on our country, who do you want making a decision which is hinged on minutes? Someone who has never even been in the battle field or someone who has been in the battle field and understands the logistics of war?

I suppose when we are all gone this all really will not matter. But what are we leaving behind for our children and their descendents? Corporate negotiations? I think Wall Street has demonstrated enough of that.
