I am Christian but I know all about Wicca and Paganism, as some of my family are.
I am sorry. I just did not like the statement he made about 'worshipping trees'.

Thank you though.

All the more reason not to allow Republicans to appoint more Supreme Court judges. Then, women's reproductive rights WILL go away.

Not to mention his personality and his morals and horrible as well as his policies. He is very demeaning towards women as he called his wife a c*nt and voted AGAINST fair and equal pay for women. As a woman, I find that extremely sexist and demeaning. His party is pro life and wants me too keep every child that is inside of me but yet they will do not want to give me health care. John McCain voted AGAINST mandatory children's healthcare.

Sarah Palin says there are no exceptions even in cases of rape and incest...that I have to carry the child and if I have no insurance, then I am screwed. On top of that, they will not offer health care but FORCE you to have a child? Pro life? Come on! If they are going to force you to have a baby when you were raped, then they BETTER GIVE the child health insurance until the day the child dies!

John McCain voted AGAINST the medical care leave? Need I say more?

John McCain voted AGAINST College Cost Reduction, College tax credits, AGAINST college prep, Community College and Loan Forgiveness!

Now how in the world..? WHAT?

This guy is sexist and on top of it...does not want you to be educated. I guess he and the Republican party would rather pay to fund the Iraqis instead of our own people! Or better yet, if it does not bring HIM money, then he will vote against it.

And as for jobs? Where are they? And why in the world would Bush (or anyone) give TAX CUTS to companies that send jobs overseas?

Anyone remember Hurricane Katrina and Bush's response to it? After that crap, I knew the Republicans were after one thing..and one thing only..oil. When Clinton (Bless his soul) was in office, gas was around a dollar.

With Bush in office, the cost of gas has gone up while cost of living has also increased. And John McCain voted AGAINST minimum wage increases. Where do the Republicans expect me to get my money from? I am a 20 year old trying to go to college and pay for gas...and tuition, food...my god!

And after all this, don't get me started on the decreasing value of our dollar...

The smear tactics..the false accusations of being a terrorist or socialist..or a racist, what else does GOP (Greedy old party) have? Guns and God? Christianity? Religion? Ah, yes. Religion. The ONE thing that the Greedy Old Party has going for them.

Anyone can see that Obama would be the MUCH BETTER choice. With hope and luck, we will see the change we can believe in!

It is just a wonder how ANYONE after all this can vote for McCain (voting with Bush ninety percent of the time)/Palin because I have had it with this failing Bush Administration.
Are you crazy??? Do you think any of this really matters...For god's sake, Obama is going to raise taxes on the 250k+ crowd! Hell yeah I'm voting for McCain, everybody knows Obama's socialist/communist/nazi tax plan is going to cause this country to literally EXPLODE! Are you for the country exploding...? WOW...You sound just like a typical Obama supporter...For the country exploding...Damn socialist!

Dont you dare put words in my mouth. When did I ever say I am for the country exploding? I think EVERYONE here is not for the country exploding.

And Obama is not socialist, communist, nazi or whatever. Get outta here.

Am I crazy? I think you are crazy.

Damn Bush and most of the Republican party.

Well let's see. I am for people keeping the money they make and spending it how THEY see fit. I am for helping who I chose with my money. I am for people taking personal responsibility. So it is VERY easy for me to vote republican. Perhaps if Taxobama wants to "spread the wealth around" he can talk to the millionaire democrats he knows.

Yep. Basically.

They can overturn Roe V. Wade even though I am sure there will be riots and such if it is overturned.

He sure is all those things. He's also probably wasn't even born in the US. I think Kenya is more like it. Whoever is voting for him isn't to smart.
