  • Failure to Admit Blagojevich Appointee to Senate Big Mistake

    Failure to Admit Illinois Governor Blagojevich's Appointee, the eminently qualified and well reputed Roland Burris, to the United States Senate will prove to be a supremely Big Mistake made by the Democratic Senate Leadership and yes, Barack Obama.

  • Re: Wow..

    I have no problem voting for a black man (or woman) as long as I can agrre with his policies. Back in the 2000 race, I was really hoping Colin Powell would run; he could have been the first black president with half the people not even realising he was black. Personally, I can not vote for Obama because he is too weak on crime; he is against the ...

  • Oh please

    Yeah, that's right. Racism is the only reason. /sarc off With all due respect, you discount that roughly half the country (like me) won't vote for him because he's Liberal with a capital L (not a moderate like Hillary). He won't get the political center to vote for him like McCain will. You want higher taxes, a bungled Socialist healthcare ...

  • This is a childish Fantasy

    First can we agree that crying racism capriciously makes REAL racism more difficult to confront. I was Giuliani voter who was initially enamored with Obama. As the campaign has gone on I have moved to McCain, disagree with my reasoning and his policies if you will but you crying Racism demonstrates your lack of understanding of the ...

  • Re: Is The Media Bias? Here is Evidence of Bias

  • Liberal Media Lies

    Political logic augurs a Democratic triumph in looming US elections but Barack Obama’s White House duel with John McCain is still a statistical tie, prompting some to wonder why he is yet to break away. Political logic augurs a democratic triumph? Augur: To predict, especially from signs or omens; foretell. What signs or omens are they looking ...

  • Sorry, but I don't agree

    Donna: We don't talk about the morality of universal health care, quality education for all, or a living wage. More importantly, we don't even talk about how they benefit all Americans, not just the working poor. As a friend says, ''You have to meet people where they are and bring them along.'' We refuse to do that. Obama hasn't done it and he ...
