Yes, someone who has been serving his country honorably since he was 17 years old clearly is selfish. McCain, because Obama's economic policies will be a disaster.
Barack Obama because he has the right ideas for the time and is more of a rational and logical thinker than McCain. Obama is on the right side of all of the major issues except abortion. We are in the midst of two major wars, and the Republicans are beating the war drums for a third (Iran) and a possible fourth (Russia). We need a president who can end these two wars and implement a non-interventionist foreign policy, not a president who will just create more wars.
Sarah Palin is the one who spent 7 minutes talking to comedians thinking that she was talking to the president of France. She even said that they were "comedians from France" after they told her that they were comedians from Quebec. This woman knows nothing about foreign policy.
Reverend Jeremiah also served his country since he was 17 years old I believe....but I've been told he's a bad bad man.
That takes the cake as just about the most awful analogy I've ever seen on these forums. You could say he's been a racist, hate mongering idiot for 17 years, serving his country? Absolutely not. That is your opinion. Mine happens to be the exact opposite. Republicans are not beating war drums, we just happen to understand the significant threat Iran poses to us. We also refuse to ignore a problem until it comes knocking on our door (Hello 9/11?) Obama has lied his ass off on the campaign trail since day one. His plan for our economy will push us from a recession into a depression. It's pretty obvious if you look at his plan with an objective point of view. And honestly, what does Obama know about Foreign Policy? He doesn't even know much about being a Senator. Sarah Palin is more qualified to be President at this point, and you cannot even argue it because it's just simple fact looking at their executive experience.
I think we're headed toward a depression or a drawn out recession (5 to 7 years) regardless of who's elected.
I'd say executive or not 26 years as a Senator beats the living hell out of anything the Democrat ticket is offering.
What a joke. If you are actually "poor," you don't pay any income taxes at all. If you are just over the poverty line, you pay a very small amount of income tax. It's the rich in this country who pay most of the income taxes and provide most of the jobs to poor people like you. For all the bitching about "the rich," you and your ilk couldn't live without them.
I love the hypocrisy in this statement. Actually, McCain won't be stealing your money and giving it away to anyone, however Obama will quite literally be stealing the upper-classes tax dollars and giving them to people who don't pay taxes at all.
