Iraq war= Barrack ABM is right on his opposition to the war that has killed over one million Iraqi lives, McCain is wrong in wanting to continue the war, it is illegal, criminal and immoral, end it now.

Economy= ABM wants tax breaks for working families, seniors, unemployed and homeowners, McCain wants to give more tax breaks, corporate welfare, offshore tax shelters to giant corporations.

Health Care= ABM believes in a nationalized health CARE system which will insure every body, Mccain wants his corporate run pay go system making the pharmaceutical industries lots of money while Americans pay more for health care then any other country and it ranks 37th in the world.

SOcial Security= keep it or completely privatize it making it corporate controlled for profit.

Abortion= Obama suports a womans right to choose, McCain doesn't.

Environment= Obama believes in protecting the environment, creating green jobs, combating global warming, signing Kyoto, McCain doesn't.

Torture= Obama opposes it and wants to follow the Geneva Conventions, Mccain does as well he is correct on that issue.

g*y rights= Obama supports civil unions and equal rights for homosexuals.

GUns= Obama supports reinstating the assault weapons ban, McCain doesn't.

Free trade= Obama opposes it because it outsources jobs and allows American corporations to open up markets in other countries and pay the locals about 25 cents an hour working in terrible conditions and long hours so Americans can have cheap products.

  1. He can't give tax breaks to working families and, at the same time, insure everyone....But he won't tell you that.

    He can't entice corporations to return to the U.S. by raising their taxes...But he won't say that either.

    He can't keep Social Security the way it is because it's going to bankrupt itself...But that wouldn't happen until after his 2 terms are up, so he doesn't care.

    When you stop looking at him through the rose colored glasses, the choice becomes much more obvious.


  2. ABM 2008

    Anti ballistic missile - the right choice!

  3. Economy-  most working families pay zero federal taxes, its state, local and property taxes that kill us and the fed has zero control of that.

    Health care- The government is not good at managing health care.  Look at the VA.

    Abortion- non issue used to divide people who do not support abortion, no candidate is gonna waste their time on it.

    g*y Rights- last time i checked homosexuals have the same rights as me.  The only difference is they are not charged the same income tax when they live as a couple.

    Gun Rights,  The assault weapons ban was a waste of time.  As well as other gun control efforts.  The people that do harm with guns do not respect gun control laws.  All they do is restrict the law abiding citizens from getting a weapon.  

    You will probably not agree but thats my take on it.


  4. Obama believes and SAYS what his handlers think will get him elected.  Pretty promises for the gullible masses.

    BTW  Painting Obama as Good"  and McCain as "Evil" is not only simplistic, it's just not true.

    Wake up.  You're one of the gullible.

  5. I have waterfront property in Arizona for you!

  6. It does sound very good. A new hope for America. There is a lot of things in his plan that seem like they would benefit all Americans, BUT I still fail to see HOW he is going to accomplish and pay  for all of it without pinching just the top 5% of wage earners. He will raise Capital Gains Tax, Death Tax , etc...

  7. The Iraq war has not killed anywhere near 1,000,000 Iraqis.  The closest figure to that that was ever released was 600,000, and that was discredited.  Obama also supported the war in Iraq in the most fundamental way possible.  He voted to fund it.  Interestingly, he gives very little money to charity, which means that he supports the war in Iraq more than he does charities.

    We already have universal health care, in which everyone is covered.  McCain has not suggested we do away with that system.  If you don't want to visit a free clinic, why would you want to set up a system in which that is the only option you would have?

    The Kyoto Accord means very little.  Since its inception, the US has reduced its greenhouse gas emissions more than any country that signed the document.  I'll take results over the promise of results any day of the week.  I guess you and I disagree on that sentiment.  

    McCain certainly does support a woman's right to choose.  He has never once suggested that women be forced to engage in an act that has pregnancy as a possible outcome.

    g*y people have the same rights as anyone else. Sorry, but that's a fact.  What they want is special treatment.  I disagree with both candidates on this issue.  Marriage is a religious rite, and as a supposedly secular society, it makes no sense to me that we reward people for religion.

    How do you define an assault weapon?  Obama specifically mentioned a weapon that is only used in about 0.25% of violent crimes.  Why do we need to ban that?

    Now, here's the kicker, Obama's two key supporters (Hillary Rodham Clinton and Joseph Robinette Biden) claim that they can't tell the difference between McCain and Bush.  Each of them also praised McCain over Obama in the primaries.  That means that they would rather have Bush as President than Obama.  That speaks volumes about the "change we can believe in".

  8. Obama gives great speeches and promises lots of things that if you really review them, there is no money for them or no practical and useful way to do it. He has pretty words- I will do this, I will do that, change, change, etc.

    No practical idea how to do it.

    No experience doing anything.

  9. Obama is right for the US and right for the world!

  10. Yep it sure does - and McCain is the answer and should be the next President!  

    Obama bin Biden is a Communist who will roll over to the Axis of Evil (including Russia) and sell out our allies into oppression in a heartbeat

    Peace

  11. Iraq war did not kill 1 million civilians.  McCain was correct that the war was waged incorrectly initially, and, supported the surge.  

    Economy.  Democrats are overstating the economic woes the nation is "suffering".  

    Health Care need new solutions from Republicans.  

    Free trade is the new global reality.  Protectionism will harm the working poor and middle class in America, but, protectionism rings true with the economically uneducated.
