Has Obama every worked to balance a budget? Had to make tough decisions on what money to allocate to what departments? Had to take responsibility when something didn't go quite as he thought it would? I know, the answer is never. What Obama is good at is pointing fingers, blaming others, and not ever coming up with a plan that was worth more then a bucket of spit.

Campaigns that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Six days ago, Senator McCain claimed the fundamentals of the economy were "sound" and then "the American worker/work ethic." The republican spin machine spent the remainder of the week trying to explain what McCain "really meant" when he said it.

This week's McCain/Palin leadership principle,
"Don't look at ME/US, look at HIM."

Governor Palin, has alot of nerve, maybe that what it takes to make the kind of statements she is making. We know that there was a administrator for her as she ran a small village of 6,000. Now as Govenor of Alaska, she has a staff that does most of the work. She is out running for Vice President, and not taking care of her state. If the American public can be fooled by such a play on their biasis then maybe she will somehow become Vice President.
This women has no right to thing she is ready to be Vice President; however with people flocking to see her and hearing the same canned speak from the McCain figure heads maybe she should feel that way. If any person in the nation took time to read about Govenor Palin, and what she stands for and not what she says I do not think there would be 10 people at one of her rallies.

Every time I read or hear Pain's criticisms of Obama, I think, how insulting. This person is so transparently a know nothing compared to Obama. It's just insulting. She can't even avail herself to the press and to the public other than in prepared soundbites. The McCain campaign is having to run her governor's office in Alaska because of her alleged abuse of power. Her candidacy is insulting to women. The thought of her being a heartbeat away from the Presidency if McCain were to win is terrifying to millions of us. McCain, the deregulator, is reckless and irresponsible in his decision-making. November 5th can't come too soon when we get to send Pain back to Alaska. I'm certain, after so much of who she is -- and isn't -- has come to light, that she is no longer the most popular governor in the U.S. McCain -- Campaign First, Country Last!! How shameful.

I realize it took Ms. Palin six years (and five schools) to earn a bachelor's degree in journalism, but you'd think that this week of all weeks she could afford to pay a little attention. Barack Obama is actually the only candidate for president who has come out with a plan to repair our economy. All Palin and McCain have done is complain and whine and claim that "the fundamentals of our economy are strong."

She wants us to put her one not-so-healthy 72-year-old heartbeat away from the presidency of the United States. Really? Pay attention, Sarah!

Yes the "I never blink" lady certainly is not in favor of thinking before action. I do believe that Obama said that Paulson and Bernake should put forward a proposal, which is their responsibility and then the Senate and House should evaluate it and make recommendations to amend it.
He also laid out three criteria upon which any proposals should be judged.
This approach shows better judgment that McCain who kept responing in ways that he contridicted himself during the week. He seemed to want to show he was in charge, when he wasn't and did not have all the facts of the matter.

Merredith, Hurst, TX — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 23:09:56 GMT

Don't go there Palin! I don't think she wants to touch Obama on the "real issues." If you can recall correctly (without lying again), Obama "responded" to the economic crisis by being responsible and letting the current administration handle what needed to be handled. Also, he called for "everyone" to work together because we are in this together. He was directing people to his website to inform them on his economic plan. He stated he needed more information on the "details" of the package that were being offered and didn't rush to come up with a "fly-by-night" plan like McCain did. In other words, he DID blink! Sometimes it's a GOOD thing to "blink." Just because you "react" first doesn't make you a leader, but the "manner in which you respond" shows wisdom, discernment and responsibility. The McCain/Palin ticket are without those "fundamental" traits. Obama showed himself to be Presidential by having all of the facts "before" he determined what steps needed to be taken. McCain/Palin are fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants kind of people who take action first and think later. Sometimes that can be detremental in certain circumstances; ask GWB about that! Sarah Palin is no more than a talking piece with a pretty face. Maybe she can "demand/command McCain's speech writers to visit "factcheck.com" before she makes her next speech.

Why aren't you telling your audience how your party spent a trillion dollars to fight a war that is unwinable. Is Afganistan stable, no, Is Iraq stable, no, Is Pakistan stable, no. Why don't you tell them how we just spent another trillion dollars to bail out wall street due to the lax oversight of the current administration over the past 8 years. Aren't you telling them that you have effectively raised their taxes on Friday with the bail out. You are not worried about heat in people's homes, all you are worried about is bring more money to Alaska. Small Government and No Spending, my *ss. What kind of Republicans are you?

Obama took thr time to consult experts, was thoughtful and informed, did not rashingly run his mouth just to say something (like the waffle king)... and Sarah (6 colleges in 5 years Journalism major) thinks she has the knowledge, the intelligence, the RIGHT to put down Barack (THE SMART CANDIDATE) Obama?

Aside from posturing, it's meaningless to talk about plans for what the next president will do. The whole thing needs to be resolved long before the election, so McCain's proposal is moot.

While John McCain might feel that he is already in a position to put out "the plan" he is not. SP makes fun of Obama's prudence in not jumping into the middle of what is the republicans mess with some plan. He and us do not have any control over what King Henry decides to do, he will railroad something through saying it is a catastrophe if we don't do something. Oh and how funny is it that Palin ridicules Obama on his voting present. Didn't the Alaskan legislature walk around last session with "Wheres Sarah" buttons since she was always home in Wasilla instead of down in Juneau taking care of business.

And there she goes lying yet again. Habitual. Obama took the stance that you want a President to take, which was careful, measured and inclusive across party lines to resolve issues with a well-thought out plan that they could agree upon. McLame, on the other hand in his typical bad temperament, went for the trigger finger approach without thinking. "Fire the SEC, no the FEC... no, well let's lay out a plan that even my party would reject." He is so lame and she is good at spreading venom. I guess 5 colleges in 5 years to get an undergraduate degree really does make you at best an attack dog. She is not worthy to carry Obama's coat tails, let alone compete with him.

BTW, I saw the audience and it was hardly tens of thousands. You lying Republicans and those in the media (Chuck!!) who are in your pockets. I remain flabbergasted that you actually drank the kool-aid. I know Tim would be so disappointed in you.

Now this is an interesting look at the candidates...

I'm a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight.....

* If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you're "exotic, different."

* Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, a quintessential American story.

* If your name is Barack you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.

* Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you're a maverick.

* Graduate from Harvard Law School and you are unstable.

* Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you're well grounded.

* If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, you don't have any real leadership experience.

* If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000 people, then you're qualified to become the country's second highest ranking executive.

* If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you're not a real Christian.

* If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a Christian.

* If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.

* If , while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in sex education in your state's school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you're very responsible.

* If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family's values don't represent America's.

* If you're husband is nicknamed "First Dude", with at least one DWI conviction and no college education, who didn't register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.

Palin must not be doing her research before she opens her mouth. Obama and Biden have started working on a recovery plan that can be found at the following web address:
http://my.barackobama.com/page/s/economyplan
She says that Obama supports tax increases that will kill jobs and hurt small business, but that's a lie. Obama's plan supports small businesses with tax rebates, and provides lower income families with a tax credit as well. His plan also includes policies that will create jobs, not kill them. Palin accuses Obama of going against certain energy solutions, but he supports a $1000 Emergency Energy Rebate. She implies at the end of this article that Obama is not about securing our energy independence. But there is no such thing. Even if we allow drilling in Alaska, the oil will not belong to this country, it will belong to the private company who obtains it. Then they will sell it to the highest bidder. Domestic oil does not mean lower prices. If Palin has any hope of pulling in voters who are not already on her side, she should stick to talking positively about what she and McCain plan to do, and stop fabricating lies about her opponents.

...And if only Alaska really produced 20 percent of our nation's oil instead of the reported 3.5 percent, maybe Sarah would be a more credible candidate on the stump.

The Obama Trauma is nothing short of a large dose of Socialism to be shoved down the throats of America.
He can't see the forest through the trees.

Maybe it's not all Obama's fault. Reverend Wright had a strong influence. It's like the line from an old Turtles song ... "I am what I am and that's all I ever can be."

America needs more than that.
America needs John McCain.

Sarah Palin again showed her ignorance, she is just full of nonsense and ignorance, Obama said many many times he will cut taxes for people make less than 125,000 dollars a year. So she is complaining for the 5% of americans who will see tax increase, they are the richest of America which she is worried about the most.
North Carolina for Obama

Sarah the Liar forgets to tell that Alaska gets 89% of its state operating budget by skimming off oil taxes that we the consumers in the lower 48 pay. If scamming your fellow Americans at the gas pump makes you an energy expert then she's it!

I have been a registered Independent ever since I was old enough to vote (more years than I care to mention). There have been times when I have not been pleased with any of the choices on the ballot, however, I always voted. I have to admit that this year is the first time I have actually been frightened by a presidential ticket. The Republicans have given us George Bush for 8 years. And, now they present us with McCain/Palin. The thought of these 2 being elected actually keeps me awake at night.

Oh Please, this is a woman who won't let the media near her. Barack gave a press conference with top financial aids standing at his side, that to me is presidential. McCain's economy package is about a paragraph long. Give me a break. I will be soooo glad when we won't have to listen to Sarah and John with their flippen lies. It's getting soooo boring listening to them.

Maybe, just maybe, if Palin knew her ass from her elbow she'd get it. Being governor of an "oil rich state" that wants to keep it's oil for it's own small amount of people because it doesn't really have enough to share & basically doesn't want anything to do with the other states and would like to be it's own little country, does not a good governor or VP make. I want to know what she's got to do when she has to actually debate and not just speak memorized words .... although I hear the debate has been made in a forum that'll be a little easier for her!

Who does she think she is???? What makes her so qualified to go after Obama, she should really take a hard look at the dirty old man beside her, and truly question why in Gods name is she even on the ticket?? McCain himself is not qualified to be on the ticket!

If she wants to keep her kids out of the campaign, why does she continuously have them on stage and speakint? Also, just a thought but why does no one ask John McCain where his flag pin is? You rode Obama for months on his missing flag pin but no one will ask the same of John? Is it because he was a POW? Well that's no excuse. I tried to listen to Sarah but her squeeky voice made me change the channel.

Kindly see the next article, "No Blank Check for Wall Street."

The distortions and outright lies that come from McCain and Palin are far and away the worst I have seen in several decades of presidential elections. Please fact-check this nonesense.

How transparent. Bring up the kids, who are very polite and the old people will be swayed to vote for them. Intelligence is not exclsive among the young, you can't fool people into voting for you because your kids have manners.
