[quote=EconProf]Let’s keep our perspective about federal spending and priorities. The total military spending budget is less than either Social Security or Medicare/Medicaid. (Wikipedia)[/quote]

Yes and a great deal of the money spent on SS and Medicare is pissed away on the beauracy employed by the government to administer it.

They should privatize the distribution of SS and Medicare. Let some big Insurance company bid on taking over the paperwork and FIRE all the worthless, overpaid federal employees who piddle around all day acting like they are working.

[quote=toots]Wow, thanks everyone. I read things I had not considered about Obama. Don’t know if they’re all true, but it’s worth thinking about

So, I have read here lots of reasons why I shouldn’t vote for Obama, but not too much about why I should vote for McCain. Because he’s white and patriotic?

Enlighten me more. I’m listening.

ps someone please tell me why right-wingers keep saying liberals are not patriotic? Because we hate this war? My husband and I and all our friends are liberal, and we all love our country.[/quote]

How does your love for the country manifest itself??

Liberals talk that love but having a Joke like Obama as the torch bearer says otherwise.

Hey, what’s your middle name anyway, Hussein or Osama??

I’m Gandalf, the Grey Mullah…

Larger question, do you notice a pattern? All these people out there insinuating Obama is dumb, unqualified, uninformed, uneducated, incompetent? It seems to recur, over and over again, implication being Obama is the affirmative action candidate.

It’s racist. I believe it’s intentional, by design and probably originates with the political machines (Clinton and now Repubs), designed to undercut Obama’s support among people with possibly racist tendencies.

Both McCain and Obama are qualified to be President, two of the better candidates we’ve had in years. Obama’s an extremely smart person, by any measure out there.[/quote]

If Obama is so smart then why does he say such dumb things??

Obama is history. He’s peaked and after McCain rips him a new one in the debates then he will be luck to get 41/42% of the vote.

This reparation stuff that is on too will destroy white support.
