John McCain vs. Barack Obama: The Best President

We are tired of Washington Gridlock
We are tired of partisanship
We are tired of a do nothing congress
We need action; action on energy independence, education, health care, the economy, government spending, and victory in Iraq and Afghanistan.
We need a leader; someone who will take action to solve our problems and finally put the needs of the country before the needs of the parties.
So who can give us what we need?
Who can really unite this country?
Let's examine the options

When the Hype passes it will be time to decide
Important decisions need to be made
We have heard enough speeches; we need action.
Who do you trust to take real action to solve problems?
Not just give them lip service
Look at the records and ignore the hype

Obama talks about out of control government spending, yet that is what he is doing as we speak. He talks against earmarks, yet his Stimulus package is full of them. He talks against partisan politics, yet he clealrly partisan himself and not even attempting to reach across party lines. How is he any different than any other politician? Oh I know, he is Barack Obama and the media has made him into this celebrity.

[2eelShmeal]

@Angie2343 Sounds good to me, the kids aren't learning anyway, they're dumb as rocks....

[Angie2343]

@2eelShmeal Yeah, THEY'RE NOT DING TO STOP THIS EITHER. Let's get rid of the federal and state departments of education and abolish the public school system so we can start over.

@fatkenstein So here we are 2-3 years later. Lets see how he did. Health care: Pushed a bill through and even with heavy majorities in both houses, still couldn't get the type bill he wanted passed.

Iraq war: Boy he really pulled the troops out didn't he? Our boys are still dying over there every day. It's now August 2011.Come on

Afghanistan: He pulled the troops outta there too. Sure.

Economy: LOL I'm not even going there

Gay People: Has Rick Warren do the invocation.

Hows that hope n change?

I thought they both sucked, what we want now is Donald Trump even though he is not perfect either, his is way better than what we got now.
