McCain asked that the people responsible for this mess be fired.

As he and Phil Gramm laid some of the groundwork, shouldn't McCain start by firing himself?

Excuse me, what do you mean by "black logic"? Chris Rock is a comedian. He was just making a joke. It's not like he considers himself a political expert or something. He even makes that point in the Larry King interview.

In case you didn't know, you're racist.

One more thing. You have a lot of nerve bringing up depriving people of voting, when the Republican party has stolen the last two elections. The Supreme Court handed W the first one. You're praising Christ in one breath while lying in the next. The Reps must think the American people are stupid but they're catching on according to the polls.

Do you really think Americans are going to believe the McCain attacks? WE all know it's just a smoke screen to take their minds off the economy because McCain doesn't have a clue. Obama has been properly vetted in the media for 19mo. & Americans know the type of person he is. Good luck @ the debate tonight because McCain is going to need it.

Ayers was young & strongly against the innocent slaughter of people. Who isn't? IF he was involved w/the crimes people have said, he would have been arrested. Bush was a coward, he was out campaigning for the governer during his call but he was a Sen's son. I wonder how many men died in his place? And, yes Ayers is "highly" respected. I've read where the only connection the Professor has w/Obama is a $200 contribution to campaign (He's a Dem) & on the Woods Fund Board (non-profit).

Dear THOM33,

The truth is that Ayers was trying to avoid the call of duty to fight in Vietnam and the only way out that looked honourable was to oppose the Vietnam war. In so doing, if he -Bill Ayers- was arrested, he would not look like a coward who ran away from the call of duty. Nevertheless, the truth remains that Bill Ayers is a coward for evading the call of duty by USA.

So you still think Bill Ayers is a "highly respected Professor of social justice"???

AMEN IN CHRIST JESUS

Acts Of Obama:

1] Obama deprived the people of chicago the right to vote for candidates other than himself through legality;

2] Obama deprived the people of 2 other states to right to have their votes counted;

3] Obama now deprived forumers to right to post their comments on youtube; and

4] Obama lies by playing with words when replying to McCain like that he -Obama- was 8, but he was 35 when Ayers had "Coffee Meeting" to support Obama's first for office!

AMEN IN CHRIST JESUS

McCain didn't repent ~ he used his POW card from explaining away his infidelities to his healthcare plan. For your info there was a committee & neither Obama or McCain were on it. Reps came out & said a deal had been made, then McCain shows up & goes into closed doors & it fails, and EVERYONE knows it. The Reps signed only after $140M pork was added. McCain also didn't suspend his campaign. What planet are you on?

[lthom33]

Obama is an "aquaintance" of Ayers, who today is a highly respected Professor of "social justice" @ Univ. of Illinois. Ms. Rezko purchased a house for full asking price of $600,000 next to the Obamas. Obama's paid $100,000 to Ms. Rezko for a strip of land to add to their yard. Nothing in the media vetting about an Iraqi billionaire. Also it's a fact that Obama's money has come from us hard-working middle-class Americans with small donations. Get your facts straight.

[lthom33]

He didn't cancel his campaign either. Media phoned in swing states & they were still up & running, had no clue about suspension. Also on McCain's website there was a fundraising link which wasn't taken out. Palin was rallying. He's just a liar.
