Mine is when they say McCain was a hero for being a POW.
You must be a little child who has no idea what John McCain went through for 5 1/2 years. You do not have to vote for him little one but you should have some respect for him. Whats makes you say something like this!!
That Obama will only raise taxes on income earners higher than 250,000. Or maybe that isn't a lie, but an accident. There is an extra 0 on that number.
Yeah and there was a surplus in the country from it too, not a $10 trillion deficit.
So if I invite you into my house and promise not to take your money, but beat you over the head and take it anyway and as a result have a $1,000 surplus instead of being $5,000 in debt, I can be a hero too?

Trumped by the fact that a streak of over 68 years was broken with the Obama/Biden ticket having absolutely NO military experience.
At least McCain served and did the best he could and still does today. He just wasn't a very good pilot!
I'm sick of the lie that Democrats are living thinking that this Change is going to elevate the suffering. All it's gonna do if Obama gets elected and is able to execute his plan is to bring the upper and middle class down to the bottom and everybody can suffer equally.
Then by that logic, those at the bottom can then feel better about themselves.
If this is what you want, this is what you're gonna get. If this isn't what you want or think this isn't gonna happen, your life has become a lie.
What I dont want is more of the same.
I don't like the fact that the top earners do not have to pay the same taxes.
I do not like that 75% of corporations do not pay any taxes while my family suffers.
I don't want CEOs of ruined companies walking away with millions.
My father was a WWII vet. He never spoke of his service,while we knew he had shrapnel in his body that bothered him until he died. At his funeral, a man I never met told me how my dad saved his life and he got that shrapnel from a land mine that exploded. My dad even though badly injured himself pulled this man and another to safety. That is a war hero.
Although I very much respect McCains service to this country,I do not fool myself into thinking he was a hero.
I am an Obama supporter and I think I am very respectable,reasonably intelligent and I am very patriotic.
Sindey, maybe you should read a little background info on McCain's time in that POW camp. He had the option to leave once the Vietnamese found out who he was, yet he chose not to leave until all of the men with him were allowed to leave. Call it what you want but that is a hero.

No I didn't miss the idea Jim, I just wanted to show that I am open to speaking and sharing opinions,ideas and whatever with republicans so maybe we can stop some of the name calling and start to work together more, thats all. Maybe my mistake.
