My family and I would not trust CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC or CBS for the time, let alone matters of a National concern. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out what their agenda is. If Obama is elected we will face four more years of lies, cover up, propaganda and bias. We have seen it before. God help us if they have a super majority. Thanks for your time, Ken.

I wonder…if a black woman had Palin’s abilites and attributes would she be considered a serious candidate for vice-president? If the answer is no, why was Palin chosen? Conversely, if Obama, with his attributes were white, would he win? If the answer is yes, America cannot afford to not vote for Obama when its future greatness in an ever open world will depend on politics not pigment…Who is anti-America enough to say in this open world that a man (woman) is not a man (woman) for all that…

Interesting Ken, since it’s been proven that those who cite Fox News as thier main news source can not even score %50 correct scores on 60 question quizs of current events…not suprising you think all the “other” news stations are “lying” to you…lol

Do the Obama, Biden or McCain families get their clothes and make-up paid from hard money, or do they not? Simple question … when answered, you will know whether or not it is appropriate for Governor Palin to have these things paid from hard money.

I knew Palin was a trouble maker. Poor McCain still protects her like she’s his daughter. He’s so proud of her. Palin will not get along with people and it will be a disaster when she goes international

Sarah Palin is an opportunist. She has situations in Alaska. The largest Alaskan newspaper endorsed Barack. My goodness, the world can see that this woman is not good for America. She is now arguing with the Mccain campaign because she wants to be in control. She has the RNC taking care of her whole family. please,I’m not going to go into the 150,000 clothes. She has been a mayor/govenor and she needed clothes. Designer at that. She certainly had a hand in it.

This story is really an all-time low even for CNN. “un-named Aids tell cnn…Please….You are as Pathetic as no-bama… don’t think he is… if you can face some truth..

take some time to watch the following videos in his own words.

Watch and learn some truth

For all of you nobama supporters. Either you are the ones standing with your hand out waiting for your “socialist support” or you are absolute fools…

If you are capable, read some honest news…It was the demos that caused the housing sub-prime loans crisis.. Do you really think they are capable of protecting this country…come on..cuz it is not IF we get hit again….it is WHEN we get hit again…

no-bama STATED in his book (the audacity of hope) that he would stand with the muslims if the political winds got ugly.

Go to this site and watch the several videos…you cannot claim that each and every video is fake or fixed. At some point. Try facing the truth, this man is truly a demon. And the ignorant thing is that the sheep who have lined up for the slaughter (TO VOTE FOR HIM)…are clueless…

When you take away a countries protection…ie the military or their right to bear arms….then ultimate control is easily attained…

It is unfortunate that history is not taught in our schools….But then again…9/11 has only been 7 years ago and it seems that a large portion of you have already forgotten. The fact that anyone in this country would even consider voting for this terrorist associating muslim… you truly are either out of your fricking mind just plain stupid…But you will be the first to cry when he forsakes you too…

It’s true that Sarah Palin does have the most executive experience
of all the candidates in this election. This experience includes
“spreading the wealth” (see: Alaska’s Windfall Profits Tax),
“abuse of power” (see: Troopergate), “questionable expenditures”
(see: Family travel expenses, hair and wardrobe costs).

But let us not get caught up in the here and now.
Let us journey through the past darkly:

From Lil’ Sarah Palin’s 4th Grade portfolio:

DEMOCRATS = DEMOCRACY
As in “the democratically elected government of…”

REPUBLICANS = REPUBLIC
As in The People’s Republic of China
The People’s Republic of Cuba

I hope to grow up to: Live in a FREE Alaska and marry Joe Vogel,
the leader of the Alaskan Independence Party.

Spreading the wealth around does not contribute to developing ambition, good educational development does. Again, listen to his words, say you work hard and
become a financial success, giving jobs to about 50 or more people, however, in his tax plan he takes higher profits from you unless you pay for family insurence
and creates no reason to try and be an achiever for a better way of life. The plumber, the baker, might as well just work for themselves, keep the little he makes for his family, as Sen.” Promise” Obama will not tax the $42, 000.00 worker, I think not. We were all raised to believe if we worked hard and put in the time we could relize real potential in life. His plan will end up punishing those who do achieve and are able to help others by giving them job’s. The truth is, we need to get rid of the thieves coming out of greed in our society, they must be punished by public recognition and by examining their financial picture, confiscate what is not really their’s beause of misappropriations of funds. They must be kept from becoming involved in the financial world ever again, meaning no control over other peoples money, as they are financial thieves. But to put a bandaid on great achievement is to take away are incentives to succeed, if Sen Obama wants this, he is saying as a possible President, work for me so I can use your labors to better my life and those connected with me, my tax plan will keep you working, just don’t plan to become too successful or I will be forced to T & T ,” TAX & TAKE” for the non worker’s, as they deserve your taking care of them, is this not what we
as American’s are upset about. Our government uses our tax dollars in many social programs to try and make our lives safer & better, but as a people we do not
want to be a Communistic or Socialistic country, take a look at how the leaders in these forms of government have and do live and then take of their countries and people, is this what we want here in our Country, I think not.
