Although I lack your elegant pen that is exactly where I have been on this election from the start.

There is no one man we can elect in this cycle that will make any difference at all. The bill is here and it's time to take our lumps.

The American public will not get serious about reclaiming their freedom until it actually becomes a disaster. It took $4+ gasoline to even get them angry enough to make politicians talk about energy, much less do anything about it.

I have asked myself repeated, "what will it take" and the answer is....Obama! If this Marxist shrimp can't break it, it can't be broken.

Oh, the misery yet to come!

Dont Worry Sarge

President For Life Barak 'Chavez' Obama will suspend the constitution, arrest economic sabateurs and make everything all right. I promise that there won't be anything you'll be able to complain about... or foolhearty enough to open your mouth about. Mussolini didn't make the trains run on time, he just made complaining about the trains being late a felony...

if Woodrow Wilson

could arrest people for speaking out against the war, Obama will have HIS way, be sure of that.

right on, Skep

that's why I'm not voting for either socialist. We have to stop this nonsense.

well, the leads are still somewhat

modest, but widening in every RCP national poll.

the misery yet to come is right. this is the left's Teflon Man.

notice how you never hear the media call him this, though?

Too bad Washington doesn't learn from their mistakes. In the one debate I really agreed with McCain about education. Lets stop throwing money at something that does not work. How about fixing something? No, not that would be the logical answer.

I am amazed that they never want to look back on why things happened. Sorry Fannie Mae And Freddie Mac have been going into the dumper for a good 8-9 years. No one looked ahead to see what the outcome would be with all the bad paper. It happened to their spawn child Sallie Mae a few years ago with the bundled garbage student loans.

Look at the banks now with the credit cards. In the next couple of months they are going to get hit with the people that can not pay.

If Obama does get elected, we have not seen anything yet. Listening to my dad and his money making friends, they are going to start cashing out because they don't want to pay the higher taxes. So, the worst may just beginning if he gets elected.

If Obama does get elected and Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Schumer, Frank and the gang all are in control, this will be a very bad thing for the USA. And now they are trying to burst into the 401K's and of course Ted Kennedy working from his sick bed on Nationalized Health Care. Where does it end?

I forgot about nearly-Dead Kennedy's parting gift to the masses! Sounds expensive but why be cheap when it comes to the children? All these socialist schemes are going to save us money IN THE LONG RUN! I'll bet that Kennedy Plan is going to be hard for a democratic congress to say NO to!

DaveCat

If a few socially disturbed malcontents are gently taken, at no cost to themselves, into a government treatment plan that administers powerful anti-psychotic drugs and aggressive therapy in their best interests I don't call that an arrest. Its ObamaCare!

Scarlet

I'm voting against Obama.Its pissing into the wind but I'll feel like I did what I could.

Beltway Girl

Teflon? Don't count on it. When things start to go south those Dem creeps will thrown that jug-eared jerk and his chia-pet VP to the lions to save their own pathetic skins. It won't work. We'll either see the destruction of the Democratic Party or a left-wing dictatorship.

I do believe Kennedy is planning for the end. If they get the bill rolling and both sides of the aisle are on board, then lets say Ted goes to the great beyond and then the bill comes to the floor. How many are going to vote against it?

I just saw on the ticker that Kerry wants a FDR New Deal Part II. Ugh!

What fools these people be

Skep you're right on the money.

As Sgt Relic says "I lack your elegant pen" but I agree. Obama has the 35% [now] {soon to be in the mid 40% after the election} who don't pay income tax, on his side, go ahead take all you can from the producers [the rich] and spread it around.

Senator Ted "the swimmer" Kennedy from his sick bed helping to write something that will destroy health care in America, universal health, has not work anywhere it has been tried.

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

Can't people [other than us] see what is happening if you say anything bad about Obama? What do they think will happen when he is POTUS?
