this is old news but look at the chart:
http://money.cnn.com/2008/06/11/…how can the republicans keep saying that obama wants to raise taxes and get away with it?
- Oh right, the rich don't count. Yeah you're right Obama is wonderful. An American citizen SHOULD be paying 71%.tommyo

Mccain should offer Addie Polk one of his homes. That's what a maverick would do.

Just had this thought:
The central cultural criticism of Liberalism by Conservatives for the last thirty odd years is that it promotes policies that create a false sense of self-esteem in people - handing things out (money, grades, etc.) to people on who they are and not on what hey do.
Yet, oddly enough the Conservatives put up for election people like George Bush and Sarah Palin who are empty suits filled with nothing but a buoyant and baseless sense of self-esteem - people who are "like us regular folks", and the people who have real bonafides in their fields are dismissed as "pointy headed experts".

A potted plant as president would be an improvement over George Bush. Either candidate will be an improvement, but if McCain gets elected half of the bush cabinet will carry over. I'm actually finding myself in disbelief that it looks like Obama has a real shot at winning this. After than last two elections it just seems to good to be true.

From Mark Wallace, a Bush appointee to the United Nations, to Tucker Eskew, who ran strategic communications for the Bush White House, to Greg Jenkins, who served as the deputy assistant to Bush in his first term and was executive director of the 2004 inauguration, Palin was surrounded on the trip home by operatives deeply rooted in the Bush administration.
The clutch of Bush veterans helping to coach Palin reflects a larger reality about Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign: Far from being a group of outsiders to the Republican Party power structure, it is now run largely by skilled operatives who learned their crafts in successive Bush campaigns and various jobs across the Bush government over the past eight years.

obama campaign should run a commercial with a photo of Palin surrounded by these Bush cronies with a tag line of "Washington Outsider. Really?"

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you will have $49.00 today.
If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you will have $33.00 today.
If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today.
But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you will have received a $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.

I wonder how much the psychological aspect has to do with it. Here we are, moaning about a recession. So probably none of us will buy that new computer or wacom tablet we wanted this month, further depressing the economy. I mean, right now, I am not hurting for money, but my nervousness about losing my job or not finding work might make me overly cautious.

don't worry people- the bailout is signed-off.
Bush has rescued us.
You know in history books Bush will be knows as the president to save the ecomony.
This is gonna be tough for McCain... do you think McCain will have something to prove now when he takes over?

That's exactly the case. This 'Bailout' never addressed confidence. There is none. Everyone was against this bill because all it does it allow the thieves to keep the train moving - which further deters confidence. If they had handed over some culprits, demanded a well laid out plan of reform and then send the money in with the transparency it deserved then confidence might have been mended to some degree. Instead Paulson is still in charge of the loot and who trusts this guy? No one who knows anything about the shady nature of this bill trusts that guy, no one.

Hello. I am a Canadian, and I am here to randomly insert how I feel about the Canadian election. It may not make sense in-between the U.S.A. stuff, but...oh well.
- I think the U.S. debates were more civil compared to the Canadian one. Ours was basically a free-for-all and not as polite.
- I'm glad the Green Party got in this time.
- I am saddened that no one can really challenge Harper yet.- http://www.qbn.com/t…dbloc
- Elizabeth May was a huge success for the Greens!sikma
- comments have been shut off.dbloc
- that's why I am hereJaline
- sikma, I agree. While some people don't like her, I think she is a fairly good and hard speaker.Jaline
- she was great! very genuine and heart felt! i really hope they get a seat.sikma
- canada needs that non-polite inner fighting....which can lead to really challenging Harper. imo, he can take his puffie mouth and eat his big head. :Pcosmik
- mouth and eat his big head. :Pcosmik
- I would blame the lack of politeness on your french roots. Just saying.TheBlueOne
