NO need to hate on me. Can't we all get along?
Have you seriously thought about if Obama gets in to the White House? It may not be "cake" now, but if he gets it we are really in trouble. I want to keep my fortune. I worked for it!
I learned today that "wikipedia.com" can be updated by anyone, at anytime. Snopes.com anyone?
btw..I am a lady. I don't swe_r on boards.

" MY TWO CENTS is full of sh_t and the Trib ought to strike his post about taxes which is a Republiscum lie!!!! Furthermore, McCain plans to leave in place the massive tax cuts that gave corporate big-wigs a windfall and McCain plans to give them billions more in tax cuts...and how much of thqat will the American worker see -- provided those same corporations don't move your job to India or China or some other cheap labor country where the same big-wigs can make EVEN MORE profits. No way, no how, NO MCAIN/PALIN! They are just more of the same Bush/Cheney robber barons! "

" That's right -- who give a rip sh_t what Huebsch, McCain, Palin or any of thhese other right-wing wing nuts think. All they believe in is dividing and smearing Americans. If you aren't white, rich and republican you aren't a part of their concern. As far as McCain, he is neither an officer nor a gentleman for picking this Palin person. He ought to apologize to America for giving her a chance to air her mean, rotten, miserable views...No way, no how, No McCain/Palin! They are just more of the same fecies that Bush has spread over America...And by the way, while Cindy McCain speaks tonight about her "wonderful family", don't forget how Johnny boy divorced his first wife...what a bum!

" Palin will definitely solidify the right wing ultra conservatives, but I doubt she'll have much appeal to moderate, reasonable people. Also, remember she has a television background from her time spent as a newscaster. She knows exactly how to connect with the camera to get her message across. She's an engaging television presence, but she & McSame still won't get my vote. "

" Its amazing the support this woman has from her constituants after becoming elected. Both as the mayor (was on city council for years before that) and then govenor, once she is in office her approval rating has always soared. She must be doing something right. I loved how she sold a jet on Ebay! "

Agreed...that women gave the best speech ever. I listened to every word. "Hat trick" anyone? Hopefully she will stay true to herself and kick some butt w/Biden in the VP debate. 37 million watched, unreal.
What's with all the weirdo protesters? Going to be a rough night in St. Paul. "

" Rhetoric is right. Ms Palin, according to the NY Times yesterday, initally enthustically supported the spending of federal money for the infamous bridge. When it became a national joke she changed her mind - but still spent the money on building a railroad to the ski-resort hometown of the sponsor of the pork, Senator Stevens. Reformer? Yeah, if you believe the rhetoric. Score one for the radical right wing of the Repub party. Does Huebsch also believe in creationism, as does Ms Palin? "

" You pay too much attention to ads and not enough attention to facts, Mr. Right. She oposed it after the promised $389 million in funding was $329 million short and congress was demanding that the money was used for other projects instead of for the bridge. When it became apparent that the funding was never going to really happen, and the costs were increasing past projections, she decided it was best to cut their losses and find a better alternative. I guess the politically correct thing to do would have been to stick it out and watch the cost escalate, but that is not what she chose to do. "

" That was part of the senate appropriations committee, and all they did was reword the Nunn-Lugar initative from 1991! They decided in 2005 to reintroduce the legislation once again. Also, Obama later voted against a bill that would require the US to inspect all incoming crates for WMD. He certainly was not the author of this project, and was not really that instrumental in revisiting it other than the fact he was on the committee. "

" Of course Huebschit is lying, it's what politicians do. Twist, spin and skew the facts. Just like Palin's claim that she was against the "Bridge to Nowhere". Sure she was, after it became politically unpopular. You can't beleive anything that comes out of a politicians mouth, especially at the convention. "

" "Time and time again, McCain has reached across the aisle, whereas Obama never has met that challenge, Huebsch said."
Huebsch is lying - Obama co-sponsered legislation with Republican Richard Lugar that expanded the governments ability to intercept illegal shipments of weapons of mass destruction. "
