The president doesn't have as much power as everyone is letting on, congress has all the real power and authority in washington and the majority of them are all controlled by various interest groups that make nice contributions to their campaigns and make sure they are re-elected, look at your own local reps/senators and try to recall who exactly ran in your last local election. I wouldn't be suprised if the senile old man wins because he answered all the questions correctly at the saddlback forum and won the approval of the Evangelical Christian voters when combined with the Oil and pharmecuetical lobbies that he also has gunning for him, well lets just say he will do pretty well.

It doesn't matter how smart Obama is or how stupid Mccain is on virtually every issue when compared side by side, what matters is how each side can successfully portray the other in a negative light, like all the random rumors about Obama being muslim and how he's not ready to lead, etc. its all a ------- joke and i hope Mccain gets elected and ------- trashes the economy, re-institutes the draft, and every one that doesn't participate in our election process gets exactly what they deserve, nothing.

I don't see where I'm GETTING anything now. Alot more $$ comes outta my check every week, compared to what I get on my tax return. Some ppl don't get ----, and have to pay in. So we're gettin' nothing now. McCain probaly picked the woman in a last ditch effort to save his ***. I too think that Osama...I mean Obama, could be the antichrist. He really could be a hardcore mooslim who's gonna pull ALL the military outta Iraq and all that ----, so Al Quida can plot more mischief in peace. As far as whether or not our vote EVEN COUNTS, I believe the electoral college(don't really understand how all that ---- works) determines the outcome for the most part.

What a stupid statement. The number of muslims who would actually blow themselves up to kill Americans is a fraction of Islam. He's not muslim, so being part of that small fraction is probably out of the question. After that fact, you'd have to understand that being in Iraq is more motivation for terrorism than us not being there to begin with.

I'm not voting for the homo, but arguing trivial points that don't amount to anything anyway keeps us from really figuring out what's really going on.

Congratulations on making my point, first you point out how you get fucked on your taxes and then rationalize why you support the people who want to continue ------- you on taxes. Have you bothered to look at either of their tax plans? At least Obama wants to cut YOUR taxes, McCain wants to cut the capital gains tax, which only helps you if you are a serious investor.

yea but a signing statement is just basically a reason or clarification on why he is signing a particular bill into law, he didn't create it or really change it in any way. and the executive orders can be repealed by any sitting president (or not used) and can be evaluated by the supreme court, but i guess thats why the candidates make such a big deal of who they would nominate to the supreme court
