For B.Obama to speculate about mistakes John McCain might make is comical. His party and he have endorsed an energy policy that would force oil companies to drill for oil where there may not be much with the same ecological downside as would exist with greater possibility of success elsewhere and the same financial costs as well. So, the environment would suffer and the oil companies would lose money. There would be little or no more oil available for the consumer.

DC,

You clearly see the flaws in both candidates and you have decied that you are more comfortable with McCain’s flaws. I simply think McCain is wrong on the war and will not support him and his party’s willigness to keep our troops in Iraq in an attempt to clean up George Bush’s many blunders. It is not fair to our troops nor is it fair to us as taxpayers to have to pay for Bush’s blunders.

Hi Michael,
As we are approaching the general election day for all of us, I really don’t pay any attention on the soon-to-be-histroy of Bush’s group, it’s going to be as a cancelled
check of yesterday, good or bad, yet it will be over soon. I don’t let the mentality of “like or dislike” sticks with me, I only compare the current candidate’s overall qualifications to each other, as the similar way as to hiring some one to fit a speclfic job’s position.
I have found that Obama is one of the kind of guys, may be one out of millions. He is good enough and qualified to do almost anything, but just not having enough needed EXPERIENCES to be the HEAD of this nation at this time. He is not ready for
2008, period. Yet he colud be in much better maturity of polical know-how level to run for the highest/toughest positon in the year of 2012!
As to McCain’s status, this aged, dislikable, hot-temper, stubborn fomer P.O.W and senior senator, who has dealt with numerous/verious of issues and results in the last decades. Since we are so desperately for the CHANGE or the JUDGEMENT, (please DON’T laugh!) He would be the one to make it because of his EXPERIENCES and DETERMINATIONS. The reason is very simple, should he got elected this time, he will make any possible efforts and changes to get that “monkey” of his back; the monkey of the image of the “BUSH’S THIRD TERM”! And it will be almost impossible
letting himself to make the same mistakes as Bush did, and the positve CHANGE(S) is a MUST for him. Another advantage for him is that the failures of Bush/Reps. can be served as a clear giude-line for him to make the right JUDGEMENT and an adequate corrections or the CHANGE(S).
Okay, you may say that it’s a wishful thinking, but if YOU were in McCain’s shoes after moving in the white house, I bet you would have the same ideas in your mind
as well.
Have a good one!

DC,

I suppose you think George Bush was a “experienced” president. And do you see what that “experience” has gotten us? The argument about Obama’s “inexperience” does not hold ANY water compared to the many failed policies inflicted upon us by the “experienced” George Bush..

Re-response to the comment by Michael, July 29, 2008
Hi Michael, if you would like read my comment’s last paragraph one more time, you
could have better understanding to what the “less evil/less risk” means to the voters.
Your last sentance stated as “……..Let us vote on what is the best for the country.” which eventually is meant the same thing as I said in my last paragraph.
Ever since the emergence of both McCain and Obama, I try hard not to let these factors such as Dems/Reps, White/Black, Muslim/Chrostian disturbing my observations and evaluations, but focusing on these two individuals only; their background, educations, experiences, knowledges, leadership, etc. are the areas
being checked for my own vote.
Obama, I noticed that he is one of the kind, perhaps one out of the millions, but he is way too short of the needed experiences to be the head of this nation, his ideas of CHANGE and JUDGEMENT are just sound as a old political slogan. His abroad

Hi Ron, here is one sentence you said: “………………………
those European countries who would like to see the United States play a weakened role in world affairs……….” (I would say who would LOVE to….)
You are very observing and you just hit a right nail on the head of those narrow-minded/short-shighted followers of Obama!
Those guys should wake up and take another closer look at their IDOL,
who actually has nothing to be qualified to run for the highest position of this great nation, except his smooth talking lips. His practical experiences in the field of both domestic and foreign affairs are eventurely thiner than his own skin!
His CHANGE and JUDGEMENT are just the classic political propaganda as
a delusive means to his blindly supporters!
It’s less than 100 days to go for the decision, let’s THINK, THINK and THINk it over…….Do we really have to be possesed by the mentality of “vote for any one but REPS.”?
No, we shouldn’t! Otherwise the consequence would be so unknown and so fatally to all of us!
The bottom line here is that we may consider and use “less evil/less risk”
as a measure for our limited option of choice!

Are you suggesting that we should give a blind eye to what McCain’s party has done to this country and vote him in? This is TRULY Delusional!!!! What kind of message would that send to our elected Officials? Does the bahavior of our elected officals not matter while they are in office?

Would you be willing to give that same Blind eye to the Democrats? PLEASE people let us not vote based only on our party affiliation. Let us vote on what is best for the country.

Why are Fox viewers so vitriolic about the truth. Look at the mess brought on us by the Bush Admin. Who is hurting by the current economy? Are the Fox watchers better off because of the current social and economic conditions?–I think not!! Sometimes for some people, it is difficult to receive the truth. Frankly, I am surprise that FOX News would allow a truthful article be written under their banner.

Hi Michael; as you quoted Rosh Limbaugh’s “predication” about Reps. and McCain, it does make a sense on the surface, doesn’t it?
Now, let us make a presumption of fact on Obama one step further; should he be elected as the head of this great nation under the sun, there is bound to be a new era to this country, the era of the CHANGE towards a total mess for all of us, because the JUDGEMENT is completele based upon a different belief and faith…..
So, if we have to adopt “less evil” theory, you have your choice, haven’t you
my friens!

I am not sure how to respond to your Incoherent ranting, But I will giv it a try. It sounds like you have had TOO much H@NNITY juice.

The choice is simple, You either vote in the interest of our country or the interest of you party. I think the country is headed in the wrong direction, so I am voting for a change in direction. You sound like the type that will vote Republican no matter what the issues are. That is your choice…
