I have to agree with mcCain on this one. I'm still neck-deep in my own student loans, I work hard, I don't own a car and live poorly; on top off that I'm paying for the salaries for all these thugs to quell a civil war in Iraq via taxes; I shouldn't have to pay for their college education as well as my own.
If some Americans want to pay for college for soldiers then they should CHOOSE to do so; the government shouldn't make me spend money on bullshit i don't need, with money i don't have.
Biggest-ever national deficit. President Bush inherited a $236 billion surplus -- the largest ever -- and turned it into the largest deficit in American history, including a record $413 billion hole in 2004.[ President Bush's Budget for Fiscal Year 2002, "A Blueprint for New Beginnings," Office of Management and Budget, 2/28/01]
Tied for worst job creation since Herbert Hoover. President Bush is tied with his father for the worst job-creation record since the Great Depression. [Bureau of Labor Statistics]
Greatest income disparity on record. The starkly uneven growth in America as the rich get rich and the poor get poorer has brought the highest levels of inequality since at least 1979, when this data was first collected.["Income Inequality Hits Record Levels, New CBO Data Show", Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, 12/14/07]
Soldiers deserve every bit of anything they can get. Do you have any military friends and/or family? They provide the defense for our country. Yes, they did CHOOSE to join, just like I did, BUT, in case you have not noticed, recruitment is down. You have to have some honey to attract the bees, if not, I guess you would rather go to a draft. Do you want a draft? McCain denied that because he thinks today's military has it TOO good. But he has to remember that he was in YEARS ago. He forgot this.
We could just leave Iraq! I'm paying for an optional war, that kids who played to much counterstrike are fighting for entertainment purposes. Yes I do have friends that left the military. It increase hatred of America world wide and has prompted thousands of people world wide to become anti-American terrorists; ultimately putting us all in much greater danger. I don't mind spending money on a defensive military.
Well, sorry to tell you, but it would HAVE to include incentives such as educational benefits such as this GREAT GI Bill, bonuses, and good training for trades to be converted in the civilian sector. Because lets be honest, some military members might say now a days that they joined solely on patroitism, and hey that's great, but I assure you the military wouldn't have HALF the people that are in it right now if it wasn't for the incentives that they offer. Just being honest here.
... Whats the problem that he is black ? Ok , seriously the whole of America is a laughing stock to us . Us , Europeans . 80 % of the Europe is voting on Obama to win . Do you know how DAMN huge he is here ? They sell Obama cups ,underwear , t-shirts And most Europeans are white . And we dont think your country is the worlds greatest.Atleast not the greatest people because the people that have problem with skincolour are idiots.The only reason someone is black is because of sun rays&genes.
Im am not racist at all and I am glad a black man has desided to run for president but Barack obama is not nearly qualified to run a country. The Europeans like him because he has very socialist views and that is the type of government they have their. Its not like it even matters if they like him, are the voting? No
what qualifies you to run a country? please almost every president has said there is no experience in the world could prepare you for that job. besides george bush had more experience than Obama right. and you see what happened there
Oh ok all the dems and liberal biased media has been blasting the hell out of Sarah Palin for everything that she has no control over, oh wow her husband got a DUI 22 years ago, as i recall about the same time Mr Barack was smoking dope and snorting cocaine. so you tell me who is trying to make people look bad, the media has hounded her because her 17 year old daughter is pregnant, wow and you say people will do anything to win, look at both sides
Running against Obama for the presidency, Biden said nominating someone without national security credentials would be a "tragic mistake" and said that the presidency "is not something that lends itself to on-the-job-training."
Obami's 143 days of actual senate experience is a joke. Anyone who votes for him is not an American who cares about our future.
The first draft of the GI Bill tried to give the same benifits to everybody in the military whether they serve only three years or thirty years. It's not good for the military nor it is fair. Giving money to everybody no matter if they deserve it or not will just create lazy americans that will just wait for the goverment to feed and cloth them.
And unlike all the elite corporate money men who have toyed with the poor Americans in Iraq, Joe has a DIRECT connection to Iraq and a personal interest in success. His son is serving there in the US Army National Guard.
He will not lack any realism in his perception of this Iraq war, unlike Bush/Cheney/McCain. The letters home & phone calls will inform him of the reality.
Yeah McCain, you served bravely in the military. But a lot of people don't have a rich navy admiral for a father like you did. And college tends to be getting more and more expensive, something you never had to worry about. If someone decides to serve this country willingly, why is it unreasonable to at least give soldiers, who may not be able to afford it, the opportunity to get an education so they might be just a little better for themselves and the job they do?
We can give up a little in the short run for our future's good. After WW II we did the right thing we tightened our belts and gave all returning soldiers a college education, at any college, and a stipend to live - the rusult a strong American middle class
Most middle class Americanss and a lot of the very rich, would not be here today if their fathers, grandfathers, or great grandfathers hadn't had the GI BIll. DO what is right for America and our soldiers. Support another Bill -
Why do people think jarheads make good presidents? They never have.
Obama served his country by working with charity and helping the community. Which was more beneficial for the country than the three planes McCain crashed and the terrible policy's he has flip-flopped to get GOP-base votes over the centuries.
Ok well how does being a "community organizer" qualify you to be the president of the united states and neither does 4 years in the senate and 1 being a Illinois senator. And out of the 4 years he was on senate he did not vote yes or no on any bill he voted "present". How does that qualify you to be the president of the US. John McCain was a war hero yes, but its not like he just jumped out of the war and desided to run for president, he was also a senator for 22 years.
And he actually voted yes or no not just "present". John McCain has served more time in a war camp in solitary confinement in a small totally inclosed shack with broken bones and sicknesses than Barack Obama has served in the US senate and been a politician all together
hckyboy14 i hope you see that mccain will further plunge this country into an economic depression because that is exactly whats going on. mccain is a war hero doesnt mean hell make a good president.
Absolutely, Most of these guys know nothing about Obama. His legislative Career was padded by being handed bills to take to the floor by Emil Jones. He uses the Saul Alinsky method of organizing...tell the what they want to hear.
Yes you are exactly right, visfen is a liberal jackass who trys to defend his canidate with negitive remarks about others, visfen what has obama and you say jarheads dont make good presidents, look at the facts ass hole all of our presidents have been in the military except 2, so your saying all of our presidents have been bad besides Clinton who didnt serve?
No, it doesn't, but good judgment and experience in law does. I don't think anyone really can say what makes someone ready for the presidency, being shot down and being a POW certainly does not qualify you.
He did vote yes and no, check the senate voting record.
No, I'm not saying he jumped, it's the experience that makes him qualified, but the problem is that he has terrible judgment. He's McBush! 95%!
Something needs to be said, it's McCains fault for being a POW, he was a terrible pilot.
These men have given up so much for us - they deserve the American dream - Please contact your Congressman and Senators and ask them to support this Bill. Many join for a chance in life, in the future, we wil have less volunteers because they will know they are deserted when they come home. They deserve the equivelent GI benefits our fathers, grandfathers got after WW II. It is good for all. It made the middle class - we are losing the middle class - we need an educated workforce.
catndryer is right. McCain knows far more about how veterans feel than Obama or Biden could grasp. their GI Bill gives you full benefits after 3 years. John McCain says it should be on a tiered level you get more benefits for more years of service and that is how it should be. I've served. you will spend at least a year and a half training! you would easily never deploy and get to milk it. thats not fair to others that are in our military for a career they should have the better benefits.
You're a fucking idiot, and a damn poser. No damn veteran would take the McCain garbage. We spend in several months in Iraq what the Jim Webb bill would cost over 10 years...
McCain had 100% of his college paid by the military. He gets 58k a year in disability. he knows nothing about the modern military. his father was an admiral. most are not born with the advantages he was. you need to learn some stuff, really.
I wonder how many women and children John McCaine slaughtered in Vietnam before he was taken prisioner? Maybe there is someone out there that can speak out about that and present the evidence. Can you imagine?
More Vietnamese died during the Vietnam war than in the post war humanitarian crisis, the war with Cambodia and the Sino-Vietnamese war combined.
The war was a terrible tragedy that was prolonged by the American unnecessary involvement.
What was proven from this war is that modern warfare spread to neighboring countries, that it is impossible to stop a civil war and that trade can heal all wounds.
Even though it was the longest war of the 20th century the involved countries are now trading.
Yeah that would be awesome for the stability of the oil prices... you can not seriously support that.
I wish however that the US would stop supporting the dictatorship in Saudi Arabia, that they didn't overthrow the democracy in Iran, and that there would be a peaceful process that brought about democracy in the middle east.
Escalating the war is not liberalism, peace and freedom is liberalism. The democratic party is not the same as liberalism. They are corrupted just like the GOP by the IMC.
how does barack obama sound like osama bin laden? and so what that castro supports him, that doesn't mean that obama is a bad canidate. it just means a bad person supports him
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Castro supports Obama because obama is an ultra left liberal. He wants to re-distribute wealth. Wake up and dont drink the cool-aid. Castro re-disributed wealth, too.
ok, so castro supports obama. big deal. how does that effect obamas ability to run this country? it doesn't. Obama is down to earth, good overall and moral person. I have yet to see any lack of integrity in the man. now for the rest of the canidates, I'm sure we can all agree they have lied a few times or more and its all on tape. obama lieing, I have yet to see that.
Grow this country??? and he 'grows' this country because hes 'down to earth'. He is one or two steps away from being a card carrying socialist. Obama want to increase capital gains tax & abolish the tax cuts and re-distribute wealrth. ie make thousands of companies pay taxes resluted in thousands of pink slips. I doubt Obama could grown a hot dog stand.
You've got to be legally retarded or something, the Obama tax plan actually gives more money back to low income and middle income workers. It is high income, super-wealthy, people that make over 2,9 million dollars that will bear a heavier burden.
And this has nothing to do with the federal corporate tax, on which I've heard him suggest we should add more incremental tax levels, which would result in lower taxes for smaller companies.
And taxing profit doesn't affect expenditure you moron.
government does not create jobs. "Taxing profit does not affect expenditure'??? Nice, try. When 'the Obama {sounds like Osama}takes money from people who earned it and gives money to people who did not earn it it sounds alot like communism to me. And if you havn't noticed, the entire former Soviet block has not embraced capitalism and low corporate taxes. MORON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where did I say it should, or that it does? Obama have never proposed such a thing.
McCain takes money from people who earn it too, he just takes more money from the poor and middle class, while Obama wants to put that burden on the super-wealthy.
And adding more incremental stages on the corporate tax would lower the burden for small business who have the highest potential for growth. That would open for investment and create more jobs.
You're a moron... what are you even talking about?
We already have the third highest corporate tax rate in the world. Exactly how fast do you want more jobs to be shipped overseas? Do you know that the richest 1% of income earners earn aproximately 18% of the wealth in the USA, yet they pay over 40% of all the income taxes? Yeah, lets tax the rich and successful more, lets tax the successful, lets tax the people that make the economy run and create jobs. Obama is a idiot when it comes to many things, the economy just happens to be one of them.
Adding incremental tax stages is not increasing taxes. It's shifting the burden. And small businesses employ 70% of the working population, and have the highest potential for growth, so giving them more back on the profit, and the largest corporations less is just intelligent.
Rich people don't make the economy run, that is the middle class. Consumption drives the economy, middle and lower class consume more of their income than rich people. Taxing the rich more benefits the entire society.
AMEN I completly agree he obviously supports him for a reason right? Obama has also had connections with pentigon bomber Williams Ayers, he was also acciated with bernidine dorhn who openly suported the acts and being of Charles Manson
so you don't think Obama is an electable canidate because his name sounds similar to another person you don't like. do you have any idea how silly and ridiculous that sounds. maybe you should stop drinking this koolaid that you speak of from fox news. fox news is not fair and is biased, and will take your brain and feed it garbage.

You have issues. I am simply staying Barack Hussain Obama sounds Muslim. I wish is was joke but poeple like you fall for anything. I said nothing about Fox News - I dont listen to them. Stop deflecting and tell us all ONE thing Obama has accomplished that makes him wothy to be worthy to President. (mayge during your next cool aid break.) OBAMA IS A FRAUD.
Ok parrot. This muslim crap is getting old. I know people with muslim names that are christians and people NAMED Christian who are muslim. Idiot. Being muslim isn't bad just like being Christian isn't bad. When it gets bad is when it goes fundamentalist and extreme. Moron. AND WE'RE 'DEFLECTING'... Stupid topic..
I'd rather see what Obama wants to do than all the bad that McCain has done and WILL do if he becomes president...
How about parroting a talking point that matters?.... Keating. Ding!
I'm so tired of hearing this tirade of him being a hero. I don't care what he did in Vietnam, I really don't, not when he has been wrong on so many issues, flip-flopped like a schizophrenic and doesn't know anything about social, economic and military policy.
I'm sure he was a fine soldier, oh wait.. no.. he wasn't. Only reason he made any progress was because of the military tradition of his family, he finished almost last in his class.
McCain was right to go against the Webb bill, at least as of now.The Webb bill would provide $1,900 per month,after a soldier serves the first 36 months.McCain's bill would,although less,pay $1,500 per month,but then rise,to provide incentives for the soldiers to stay in the military.According to one estimate,16% of the soldiers will not reenlist after receiving the new Webb bill.This is terrible considering the way our military is currently stretched.McCains bill will be better in the long run.
I think it's at least reasonable to ask whether an unintended consequence will be to increase the need for Stop-Loss orders. However, rather than make the benefits less generous, they might delay the time the funds become available until after we've been able to put the orderly withdrawal from Iraq into effect.
Two posters above make good points: the proposed GI Bill offers greater incentive to get out of the military than it does to stay. This would lead to increased manpower deficiencies on top of the bleak recruiting/retention situation already, leading to more stop-loss orders and IRR activations, etc.
But it doesn't address the root of the problem (unpopular war), or the gross ABUSE of our veterans under the Stop-Loss policy. Congress needs to pass this GI bill, then reinstate the draft.
Don't get me wrong, on balance I favor the Webb bill. And I am beyond pissed at the way McCain attacked Obama. As if enlisitng when there is no major war is more important than pitching in to help decimated neighborhoods. I very nearly wrote a letter to the editor of the LA Times about it. I was only saying what I believe is the ONLY substantive issue worth discussing, which is being careful not to unintentionally increase the burden on those already in the field of combat. Doable I think.
People aren't reenlisting NOW! So what is the difference? You may as well put out SOME honey to attract people, unless you want to bring the draft back. I served 4 years in the United States Navy, deployed twice, and I have lots of underway time out to sea. With the way we are treated sometimes, we deserve EVERY benefit possible!
Mc'Cain is not in favor of the GI bill because he doesn't really care about the veterans! It was a pleasure though to see Cindy dressed modestly today. Hope she keeps it up! A conservative republican nominee's wife should dress in decent clothes and should not pose for fashion magazines!

The starkly uneven growth in America as the rich get rich and the poor get poorer has brought the highest levels of inequality since at least 1979, when this data was first collected.["Income Inequality Hits Record Levels, New CBO Data Show", Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, 12/14/07]

Soldiers deserve every bit of anything they can get. Do you have any military friends and/or family? They provide the defense for our country. Yes, they did CHOOSE to join, just like I did, BUT, in case you have not noticed, recruitment is down. You have to have some honey to attract the bees, if not, I guess you would rather go to a draft. Do you want a draft? McCain denied that because he thinks today's military has it TOO good. But he has to remember that he was in YEARS ago. He forgot this.

We could just leave Iraq! I'm paying for an optional war, that kids who played to much counterstrike are fighting for entertainment purposes. Yes I do have friends that left the military. It increase hatred of America world wide and has prompted thousands of people world wide to become anti-American terrorists; ultimately putting us all in much greater danger. I don't mind spending money on a defensive military.

Well, sorry to tell you, but it would HAVE to include incentives such as educational benefits such as this GREAT GI Bill, bonuses, and good training for trades to be converted in the civilian sector. Because lets be honest, some military members might say now a days that they joined solely on patroitism, and hey that's great, but I assure you the military wouldn't have HALF the people that are in it right now if it wasn't for the incentives that they offer. Just being honest here.

Im am not racist at all and I am glad a black man has desided to run for president but Barack obama is not nearly qualified to run a country.

Running against Obama for the presidency, Biden said nominating someone without national security credentials would be a "tragic mistake" and said that the presidency "is not something that lends itself to on-the-job-training."
Obami's 143 days of actual senate experience is a joke. Anyone who votes for him is not an American who cares about our future.

Joe Biden is a great guy.
And unlike all the elite corporate money men who have toyed with the poor Americans in Iraq, Joe has a DIRECT connection to Iraq and a personal interest in success. His son is serving there in the US Army National Guard.
He will not lack any realism in his perception of this Iraq war, unlike Bush/Cheney/McCain. The letters home & phone calls will inform him of the reality.

Yeah McCain, you served bravely in the military. But a lot of people don't have a rich navy admiral for a father like you did. And college tends to be getting more and more expensive, something you never had to worry about. If someone decides to serve this country willingly, why is it unreasonable to at least give soldiers, who may not be able to afford it, the opportunity to get an education so they might be just a little better for themselves and the job they do?

Ok well how does being a "community organizer" qualify you to be the president of the united states and neither does 4 years in the senate and 1 being a Illinois senator. And out of the 4 years he was on senate he did not vote yes or no on any bill he voted "present". How does that qualify you to be the president of the US. John McCain was a war hero yes, but its not like he just jumped out of the war and desided to run for president, he was also a senator for 22 years.

catndryer is right. McCain knows far more about how veterans feel than Obama or Biden could grasp. their GI Bill gives you full benefits after 3 years. John McCain says it should be on a tiered level you get more benefits for more years of service and that is how it should be. I've served. you will spend at least a year and a half training! you would easily never deploy and get to milk it. thats not fair to others that are in our military for a career they should have the better benefits.

More Vietnamese died during the Vietnam war than in the post war humanitarian crisis, the war with Cambodia and the Sino-Vietnamese war combined.
The war was a terrible tragedy that was prolonged by the American unnecessary involvement.
What was proven from this war is that modern warfare spread to neighboring countries, that it is impossible to stop a civil war and that trade can heal all wounds.
Even though it was the longest war of the 20th century the involved countries are now trading.

You've got to be legally retarded or something, the Obama tax plan actually gives more money back to low income and middle income workers. It is high income, super-wealthy, people that make over 2,9 million dollars that will bear a heavier burden.
And this has nothing to do with the federal corporate tax, on which I've heard him suggest we should add more incremental tax levels, which would result in lower taxes for smaller companies.
And taxing profit doesn't affect expenditure you moron.

Where did I say it should, or that it does? Obama have never proposed such a thing.
McCain takes money from people who earn it too, he just takes more money from the poor and middle class, while Obama wants to put that burden on the super-wealthy.
And adding more incremental stages on the corporate tax would lower the burden for small business who have the highest potential for growth. That would open for investment and create more jobs.
You're a moron... what are you even talking about?
Visfen 3 years ago
We already have the third highest corporate tax rate in the world. Exactly how fast do you want more jobs to be shipped overseas? Do you know that the richest 1% of income earners earn aproximately 18% of the wealth in the USA, yet they pay over 40% of all the income taxes? Yeah, lets tax the rich and successful more, lets tax the successful, lets tax the people that make the economy run and create jobs. Obama is a idiot when it comes to many things, the economy just happens to be one of them.
jarvis1211 3 years ago
Adding incremental tax stages is not increasing taxes. It's shifting the burden. And small businesses employ 70% of the working population, and have the highest potential for growth, so giving them more back on the profit, and the largest corporations less is just intelligent.
Rich people don't make the economy run, that is the middle class. Consumption drives the economy, middle and lower class consume more of their income than rich people. Taxing the rich more benefits the entire society.

McCain was right to go against the Webb bill, at least as of now.The Webb bill would provide $1,900 per month,after a soldier serves the first 36 months.McCain's bill would,although less,pay $1,500 per month,but then rise,to provide incentives for the soldiers to stay in the military.According to one estimate,16% of the soldiers will not reenlist after receiving the new Webb bill.This is terrible considering the way our military is currently stretched.McCains bill will be better in the long run.

I think it's at least reasonable to ask whether an unintended consequence will be to increase the need for Stop-Loss orders. However, rather than make the benefits less generous, they might delay the time the funds become available until after we've been able to put the orderly withdrawal from Iraq into effect.
GrownupPhan 3 years ago
Two posters above make good points: the proposed GI Bill offers greater incentive to get out of the military than it does to stay. This would lead to increased manpower deficiencies on top of the bleak recruiting/retention situation already, leading to more stop-loss orders and IRR activations, etc.
But it doesn't address the root of the problem (unpopular war), or the gross ABUSE of our veterans under the Stop-Loss policy. Congress needs to pass this GI bill, then reinstate the draft.

Don't get me wrong, on balance I favor the Webb bill. And I am beyond pissed at the way McCain attacked Obama. As if enlisitng when there is no major war is more important than pitching in to help decimated neighborhoods. I very nearly wrote a letter to the editor of the LA Times about it. I was only saying what I believe is the ONLY substantive issue worth discussing, which is being careful not to unintentionally increase the burden on those already in the field of combat. Doable I think.
