  • Obama's afraid to do town hall type "debates" with McCain because he'll get his butt kicked. McCain sucks at making speeches, but is excellent with off the top of his head remarks, because he has something in his head. While Obama is excellent at speeches, but sucks at off the top of his head remarks, because he has nothing in his head. So McCain needs to keep the pressure on Obama to do the town hall debates, and if he continues to refuse, then confront him on why he is afraid of them.

  • Every election a politician mentions improving the economy to get the vote of the unemployed. If the economy is doing good they will create fear and say they will keep the economy strong so as to get the vote of the people who fear loosing their job. We are already in or will quickly be entering a recession. There is nothing the president, congress, or the federal reserve can do to stop this. The housing bubble will continue to deflate.

  • It is rhetoric when he talks about bringing back jobs. All the parties favor and push globalization and comparitive advantage. Obama is actually getting more this election from Wall street than the Republican. wow. the point is this. Obama is trying to get blue collar vote and is saying this. It will not happen because the stock market would crash and prices shoot up if he tried to force an end to market globalization.

  • I'm just curious, whats rhetoric about creating or should i say changing the way the economic is right now. Obama's message is about CHANGE, every presidential nominee has their own opinions or ways to Change about Globalization. Obama seems to have a better ideas to his knowledge, will it work, don't know. President Bush is killing the economy right now. Maybe, it will be best to give him a chance before criticize. Even he said That the road will be difficult ahead.

  • The president and congress do not have very many tools in their economic bag. Neither does the Federal Reserve. The congress can give tax breaks or refunds and the president can sign the law but that money has to come from some where. If they borrow it, (this creates money), and causes the dollar to drop and inflation to increase (ex. oil prices) but it spurs spending for a while until it is time to pay back the money. Obama can go on a spending spree but someone will have to pay.

  • This will then sink the economy cause people will have to pay higher prices and more taxes. Think of it this way, each time they increase spending and taxes, there is less money for the economy. Ex. I saw a newspaper article where a people would call their congressman because a dog was running loose on their street. That has nothing to do with their congressman. It is city government particulary the dog pound.

  • He can't. Him and not just him but any politician that says things like this are vamboozling you. Oil prices are set in the oil market. We live in a free market society. The government can't tell us what we will work for (price) or we will just stop working. The same thing with the oil market. tell them what they can buy or pay for a barrel and they will stop producing the barrel of oil. In other words, it is politician bull shit.

  • Maybe you should try reading his policy proposals?

  • time for change...

  • But change to what? There is good change and bad change. Just to change to change is nuts.  You could go from really bad to really really bad.

  • Do you think he will change the Born Alive Infant Protection Act that he strongly apposed in 2001, 2002, and 2003? He was adamant that a born premature baby was not a person nor should be protected by law.

  • Erm, that act did not have anything to do with infants that were "born prematurely", it had to do with fetuses that had been aborted.

  • So why did Obama argue in congress that a baby born prematurely (before 9 months) is not a person nor should be protected by law? Why did he in affect support infanticide? Why didn't he clarify that he was speaking about babies that were accidently born in the process of being aborted? How does this affect a woman's body or health if the baby has already been born and is laying there breathing? Why place the child on a shelf to die?

  • Obama voted for the Illinois version of the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. He didn't vote for the Federal version because the Federal version identified an unborn fetus as a human being, which he felt might furnish the legal precedent for an activist judge to someday overturn Roe v. Wade. He was correct in doing so and I applaud his foresight as always.

  • I think you need to look at the actually congressional testimony. It is on the government site. He argued that a born fetus of child, not carried to full term, is not a person. Yes he was afraid that if he didn't support infanticide it might overturn abortion. And no he never voted in favor for the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. Make sure you get your facts straight.

  • Yes, Obama believes as I believe that an unborn fetus is not a person. Therefore a bill that defines a fetus as a person should not be voted for because it will probably be used to overturn Roe v. Wade, which most Americans, by the way, support. As I said I agree with Obama 100%.

    And while we're getting our facts straight, the fetuses addressed by the BAIPA were not "born", they were extracted from the womb and aborted.

  • :) Everyone is seeing how you change the topic from infantide (born babies) to abortion (unborn fetus). We see you and hear you. You are supporting infanticide because you support abortion. OSP (One Sick Puppy) Thank you for showing your colors.

  • Even the National Abortion federation supported the Born Alive Infant Protection Act 2002 and rejected infanticide where as Obama supported infanticide (the babies were born and breathing and crying).

  • God help you sir.,...
