You show your true colors when you write, Ken. It is beyond me how anyone would want the country to go through four more years of destruction based on Bush policies followed by McCain! The misinformation and lies of the current occupants of the White House are staggering! The pull out of troops from Iraq, do you really believe the civil war could get any worse and then who the hell cares when people are suffering here.

People, like you, keep forgetting that this war wasn’t based on a real threat! The war was based on oil, like it or not! Under the UN Sanctions, Iraq could only sell a limited amount of oil for food and even that was fraught with lies and deception. The only way for Bush to eliminate the sanctions was to manufacture, (Lie), enough bad evidence to go to war! Then the sanctions would be void. After almost two years of burning oil wells, the oil started flowing and since then American oil companies have reported record profits off the blood of Americas young men and women!

Pulling our troops out now, or a draw down which isn’t the same thing you dwell on, will force the Government of Iraq to get off their butts and reconcile or face civil war! It’s their country and their choice and as of yet they have done nothing!

I don’t agree with Obama and don’t think he has a clue how to implement anything. I fell if he is elected he will have a very tough time working with the establishment in Washington! Sadly, his best would have been to do 8 years as Hillary’s vice and then he would have been a powerhouse to reckon with.

This country cannot afford or bare another four years of Republican dictatorship! Whoever the candidate in November, that is going to be the question that rules the day. Whether Hillary or Obama, the choice in November is healing by surgically removing the Republicans from office!

I understand that politics in this country is a team sport and not based on facts for most people, but my God, the wrong done to this country by the Republicans is so obvious the rest of the world is laughing at us! The damage the Bush Administration has done will take decades to fix and voting for more of the same will doom us all!

And where is Bin Laden?

Ron,

That is amazing you feel that way, that is what is wrong with America, we are blind. Luckily we have someone in the White House who is not. You talk about issue here with Americans, when Hillary has one of the largest ear marks for a Woodstock museum!  You think think Iraq was not an issue to the states, yet they have funded terriost to attack American interests.  I would like to see Bin Laden captured, do you really think that GWB does not want to capture him, do you know a better way to find him when all of the people in the surrounding area love him and are keeping him hidden?  It is obvious money doesn’t work because some poor peasant farmer could turn him in for the reward and be a millionaire many times over.  They do not care about money, they wake up every morning and want to cause harm to Americans; and yet you think none of them are a threat.  Don’t let the ocean fool you in thinking we are safe from them, remember Sept. 11?  As a former Sgt. in the Marine Corps, I can assure that pulling any troops out of the Middle East is going to be a very bad thing.

Ron,

You also show your true colors when you write, and I hope you are dead wrong with your 2008 predictions.  Do you actually think either Hillary, or Obama are going to do anything to find Bin Laden?  They would not even begin to know how to handle national security.  Peace rallies, rainbows and butterflies do not work for dealing with radical Islam.  Tax hikes, big government, subsidized healthcare, government subsidized welfare programs etc., will destroy the economy and quality of life.

We’ll see in November and I’m feeling pretty good about “change”!

Seriously?...wait...Seriously?...First of all Hillary Clinton was molded to be a typical Washington elite. Taking money from big business and special interest to promote her own future. Not to mention her entire time as a Senator the only legislation she managed to pass were several bills to have post offices re-named. Now she overtly lies about her time as first lady and says she simply misspoke. McCain can’t even tell the difference between Al-Qaeda and Iran which he confused at least 2 seperate times verbally in a recent trip to the Middle East and once in print. On the economy he offers no plan at all and only states to make the Bush cuts which only favor the rich permanent...His only arguement is to call his opponents tax and spend democrats. That is extremely vage and untrue since Bush has created the largest government and tax burden on America EVER; as far as finding Bin Laden, leave it up to McCain Or Bush? We were attacked in 2001...Bush has had 7 years to find him and has so far only decided to distract America with a war in Iraq that was entered into based on nothing more than lies. I support Obama; he is not perfect, I have dissagreed with things he has said, but the fact that he has clear a clear economic plan, will not touch special interest “bribery” money and has pledged to turn our attentions mainly back twards Bin Laden...not false threats Like Iran Or Iraq...Understanding that you can not just pull out 100% from this mess Bush has put us in in Iraq.
