political opinion...

Published Jun. 29, 2008

 

By "Maranda Ed" <edmair@yahoo.com>

 

As Americans, we must ask ourselves which candidate will bring about the change our country so desperately needs. In my opinion, Barack Obama is the only candidate with the judgment to move our country forward.
 
The disastrous consequences of George W. Bush's poor judgment over these last 7½ years are all too apparent.  Now, John McCain is offering 4 more years of Bush -- while Barack Obama offers the change in direction our country so desperately needs.
 
Barack had the judgment to oppose the war in Iraq before it began, and he is ready to bring our troops home and end the occupation of Iraq in a responsible way. John McCain has said that American troops should be willing to stay in Iraq for 100 years.
 
Barack will engage in the diplomacy that is necessary to bring stability to the Middle East.  Just like George Bush, John McCain repeatedly resorts to saber-rattling and threats about invading Iran while revealing a startling ignorance of the basic issues that define the politics of the region.
 
Barack knows we have to invest in renewable energy to end America's dependence on foreign oil and fight global warming. And like George Bush, John McCain is in the pocket of big oil.
 
It's about judgment -- and I think the answer is Obama... yea Clark

That said, if U.S. Marines have to die, they should die in defense of this nation, never for oil profits or delusional politicians.  Actually, the word delusional doesn't apply to Dick "Halliburton" Cheney, however EVIL does.    Semper Fi,

Too true, Sue.

"most don't"

Blue, so true. Scary when you think about it. People tend to believe anything they hear, anywhere they hear it--even in a blog where anyone can say anything. And then they go out and vote.

Thanks Bluewind.

hehe..thanks sue!

Cleopatra, you talk like you have some sense! If only everyone voting did...cause most don't!!!

Rick, you've got my vote. And I would say that even if we weren't related. ;-)

"Just like George Bush, John McCain repeatedly resorts to saber-rattling and threats about invading Iran while revealing a startling ignorance of the basic issues that define the politics of the region."

Maybe yall missed it, but the other day North Korea destroyed one of its own Nuclear Cooling plants. Thank you President Bush for you saber rattling and diplomacy (The US paid 2 million dollars for it destruction). You just made Asia a whole lot safer from Nuclear attack

You people are living a lie if you think an American will make a difference in the Middle east. It does not matter who it is. They hate ALL Americans, including democrats.

I hope you are right Slick, because I think the majority of Americans (thank you public education) haven't been taught to see through sweet talk.

cleopatra, i really don't believe either of these candidates, if elected, will make it for another term...that's the only hope i have right now...make it through 4 more years, at which point, i will be old enough to run for president and save the country. ;)
