And meeting with our enemies instead of just trying to annihilate them is a bad thing? Oh that's right. The USA isn't known as a pacifist country. Gotta show who the boss is. That's why every other country in the world despises us.
Give me a break. He's already debunked that ridiculous rumor about the terrorist. Just foder for the McCain backers.
What's wrong with voting liberally (unless you're an ultra-conservative).
If wanting a national healthcare system is socialist, then give me a better alternative. Medical and pharmacutical costs have tripled over the last 5 years, and there's no sign they will decrease. The Baby Boomers like me won't be able to even go to the doctor on the illustrious Medicare/Medicaid Plan by the time we need it because the funding will be gone just like Social Security.
Actually he wants to strengthen our military by bringing it back where it belongs, to American soil. The War Mongers just want to make it look like the old 'Cut and Run' routine W's daddy did in the first Gulf War.
First of all, the "incentive checks" (which I spent in mexico) imo isn't a conservative idea, and was passed and praised by both parties. Then the dems started whining about it. Sure it was bushes as much as the Kennedy's ed bill or, McCain-Fiengold, and some others. I'm not against real tax cuts, but stuff that has been redistributed like the misnomer "tax rebate checks" is simply a quazi-socialist idea. Tax the rich give to the poor. It won't do much for the economy on a national level. (regardless whether you like the idea or not) THEY HAVEN'T BEEN FULLY DISTRIBUTED YET! So like it or not we can't judge its effectiveness yet.
Tell you what, do some research of GB or Can, the USSR or China, and let me know how good you think their health system is. (and don't watch a Moore movie) Insurance in its current form is a scale model of a federal single payer system. And you see the problems it has caused. I don't think the answer is ramping it up to a full scale version.
Sure we can meet with nutcases. But the prez shouldn't. Why should we waste our time caving on their demands that we find unacceptable? Just in the interest of talking. We negotiated with Sadaam for 15 years and we saw how far we got. How long did we negotiate with lybia? Since Regan? When did they give up their nuke program, when we stormed through Iraq, and I'm sure someone sent them a little note saying you're next.
Besides who cares what people think of you, when you are right
