What a surprise Palin is in trouble again for more ethics violations. This is the woman John McCain wants to clean up Washington?
It turns out that Teddy Roosevelt was more of a socialist than Barack Obama. Who would have guessed. Maybe all of this socialism baloney that the right has been throwing around is baseless.
Republicans will readily tell you these days that Democrats are in fact socialists or communists. Many Republicans have over the course of the last twenty years waged a tacit campaign to turn the label "liberal" into a bad word.

With all this talk of Joe the plumber, McCain has covered up the fact that Obama won't raise taxes on 98.6% of small businesses.
You can see in this article how easily the banking industry took advantage of average Americans by getting us deeper and deeper in personal debt, and by using the lobbyists in Washington to push deregulation as a means of taking away basic consumer protections that could have hel …
As I've been stating now for over a month. Poor people aren't the cause of the economic crisis.
David Gergen admits that McCain/Palin rallies are becoming more and more incendiary. The tone of the presidential campaign has deteriorated to an incredibly low point. "There is this free floating sort of whipping around anger that could really lead to some violence.
This is absolutely incredible. The McCain campaign claims that it is somehow an attack on McCain supporters to question the validity of screaming, "Kill him" at a campaign rally. Obviously this kind of thing is intentional.
Presidential elections in the United States can get ugly. We all know that.

I have heard a myriad of explanations from conservatives or liberals trying desparately to push an agenda. I have heard from some that Democrats are to blame for putting poor people in houses that they could not afford.

The financial bailout of the U.S. debt market is enormous. It is larger in fact than the GDP of most nations.
Palin supports a more expensive bridge at the expense of the environment in contradiction to McCain's views on earmarks.
McCain's health care plan won't reduce the ranks of the uninsured. Obama's plan won't reduce medical care costs. an economist examines both plans.
This is the kind of person we want as the vice president and quite possibly president? She would be Bush only without the stellar education. Why do these people want to saddle us with this kind of person? The title says it all as far as the contents of the article.
I've seen a lot of elections in my lifetime. I've seen a lot of dirty elections from various attempts at political vandalism, smear tactics, intimidation etc. I have however never seen anything quite like this on a national level.

Ron, the most important word in your comment is "if". Let's talk about what we know. The Universe we live in is beyond human interference. We will live or die based on it. Face the fact that our Sun will be a Red Draft that, towards the end of its time in about 5 or 6 million years, will have grown to a size that will consume the Earth. In about 1 million years this dying star will be hot enough to cause the Earth to reach it's boiling poit. That is when we all die. There is no escape, but space travel which is underfunded. The average rate of global warming can be calculated by taking the average temperture of the Earth now from the boiling point and dividing that sum by 1 million years. That said, there is no reason to speed up the time table on this. But, we have enough time to get it right without destroying our economic system. Economics drives everything. And, without a healthy economy, nothing is sustainable. Get a grip on what is really important for the survivable of man, because the Earth is doomed regardless of what we do.
it is not a scare tactic if it is true. all of mygirl response are true and correct.
I have already voted for Obama, btw.
