oh just to add I did shoot off a hot e-mail to my congressman about the AIG executives spending all that money on a spa treatment ($400,000.00) and not only that but after that they came back and are now spending $86,000.00 for a hunting trip. I asked them where their oversites were and why weren't they firing these people and prosecuting them? I don't know if I will get a response as they are out campaigning!!!!! Who's watching the hen house? ??

To everyone who is planning on not voting. My advise to you is to all vote for the independent candidate whoever that may be if you guys have that option. I don't watch the news and am not American so I am just learning more about the system as it happens. I just feel that voting for the independent candidate is not a 'wasted vote' as i have heard said back home before. I think, if anything, it is making a statement and standing up for the everyday citizens who have to put up with jerks running for presidency. You guys need a 'monster raving loony party' google it if you need to smile or watch this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGuiOM8qD8Ibelieve it or not, I'm pretty sure they have won a couple thousand votes in the past. A pretty good way to insult the 'serious' candidates one would think

By voting for a candidate that has zero chance of winning you are in fact voting for one of the two other candidates. You would actually be voting for which ever candidate you think is the lest acceptable because you did not give your vote to the most acceptable. We don't always have the greatest of choices but at this stage there is only the choice between two. Make a dicission there are clear differences. The rest is fruitless.

Well, Obama is dangerous in my opinion, have you studied all his terrorist ties? It is not just hearsay, it is fact.
I studied him quite a bit before the elections.
I am not so afraid of what he didn't say, but rather what he DID say. he wants drivers licenses for illegal aliens, he wants MORE illegal aliens to get AMNESTY! he wants mandantory health insurance, (if you don't buy from your employer, they will deduct money from your check anyway for it.) and so much more! Mark my words, we are headed for a communist or socialist country, under him, (and all his recent appointees) scary...some of them.
His spread the wealth thing, is ridiculous.
I was so upset about it, I made a video online called "America's Eulogy."
I agree that people should have gotten past the history being made and really listened to him and really studied him. He is evil.

Taxes are a tool for spreading the wealth and have a long history in this country. Health care has to be addressed, and you are already paying for everyone elses health via out of control costs and human misery. Who exactly are his terrorist ties too? Is your problem with him as a politician, a man, a democrate, or something else? So far his actions have been honorable, well thought out and of a civil service mentality. I checked him out too when my candidate did not make it to the top. Don't you think evil is a bit much. He won get over it. Work with it.

All I know is that yesterday, President-elect Obama said he had NOT talked with Illinois Governor Blagojevich about his soon-to-be vacant seat. That lie was exposed earlier this morning, and is still unravelling as I type this. Now Obama doesn't make a firm denial of any wrong doing (possible grounds for impeachment), but instead he says he has confidence that there was no wrong doing. Kind of reminds me of a guy who said "I have never been a crook", and then resigned before he was impeached. Maybe Obama should just save us the time and effort, so we can go after President-Elect Biden next. Go Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye ... Come on Eileen

Actually, there has been no evidence of any wrong doing on the part of the Obama team. And they have been looking pretty hard for some. The Gov called Obama a M..F..er because he knew he was just to dang honest. Good try though. Love and kisses Louis.
