Obama is a socialist. He plans to punish those who are most productive and innovative in by redistributing their earned wealth to foreign nations and a larger ineffective gov't. His support of grossly high corporate, income, dividend, and capital gains taxes as well as his Global Poverty Act support these statements. Instead of promoting democracy, free-trade, and capitalism in impoverished nations, his populism shines through as he promotes long discredited Marxist theories. He is a Tyrant

Anyone notice that all three of Obama's names are bad....

Barack... Barracks

Hussein... Self-Explanatory

Obama... Bin Laden

I also don't want someone who was given the opportunity at a first rate education and finished at the bottom of his class, he actually is stupid, not just dumb like bush. The McCain 'magic' went out the window when he gave bush the hug and kiss, I hope he's finished. If you are inspired by Obama's speech, then go with it and vote your good sense instead of doubting it. You've got the instinct USA so go with it and join the American people. We the People need to take this country back.

I too am a 27 year vet and supported McCain in 2000. I don't know why but he lost his compass, he's a babbling moron talking about things in a way that don't make sense. Drilling our way out of this energy crisis, keeping the nation at war, torture is ok. That issue by itself says it all, he can't raise his arms above his shoulders and he thinks it's just grand to do that to others. Sorry, it's not ok and intel is not correct from that means, that is a fact!

conservatives dont win arguements they just skillfully speak out of convenience.

I'm not sure what you're asking. Bill Clinton ran as a new Democrat, ran way from liberals and governed from the center most of the time. He wanted to be huge lib but after '94 and vetoeing welfare reform twice he finally signed the conservative legislation.

I don't think the tough questions on foreign policy have anything to do with his race.

Definition of racist bigot: A conservative winning an argument with a liberal.

[oilldrill1]

Where were you during the B. Clinton presidential administration(2 terms as a liberal president) second there are no questions being asked that are worth addressing or listening to.The questions are aimed at belittling Obama as a black person and if he were to keep answering the same irrelevant questions he would be serving the conservitude agenda. In other words..stop playin

Holly shit, I'm a conservative Republican, a war vet and a corporate lawyer, I worked for McCain's campaign back in 2000, then shifted to Gore and Kerry because Bush wasn't for me... and now I will vote for McCain, but I must say Obama can strike strong chords. He is still full of shit, but he is good at making disenchanted Americans feel driven again. McCain is a great man and very charismatic too, I hope we'll get to see some of his magic too... It's a cool Presidential race this year.

THE issue IS that Obama won't answer questions and when you actually look at what he said not long ago is different than what he's saying now. It is important that we examine Obama's waffle that "the pace of withdrawal will be... based on the need for stability" in Iraq. Why don't you ague what people are saying about his flip flops instead of disregarding them as spin?

We've got tons of issues against Obama because he's a huge liberal and America doesn't elect libs for president.
