Obama ad hits McCain on Cheney support; two newspapers have McCain's back

The Globe is putting years of journalistic integrity on the line for a man who has been tied up in the rackets in Chicago. You can not defend Obama's house purchase with Rezko, any involvement is abominable. He plugged Bill Ayers book. He almost broke a record voting "Present", he voted 97% down party lines, he took more from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac than everyone but Chris Dodd, has less experience than anyone running for President in the past 50 years, etc. etc. etc. Beyond that, he wants to spread the wealth, is poisoned with vanity, is critical of the Founding Fathers and wants Supreme Court Justices to be pawns in his social engineering. Add to that a congress dominated by the furthest left wingers in decades, I appeal to the better senses of the Globe and its readers to heed the word of Arnold Schwartzeneger and not change this nation to that of a weak second tier european nation. People want to come to the United States to get opportunity. We don't want lazy losers who are looking for a hand out.
Further, the bottom 50 percent of earners only pay 3% of the cost of government. the top 25% pay 86% of the freight, do you think they get 86% of the benefits? In other nations the wealthy don't give nearly as much. Here, the wealthy pay and give opportunity to those that pay nothing. The wealthy pay the overwhelming amount of the freight for our police, firefighters, teachers, military etc. If people aren't paying for these services they at least ought to be thankful.
Obama wants to give welfare checks to people that don't pay taxes. How on earth does the Boston Globe believe that he is the right choice?
To the academic socialists, you make significantly higher profits than the oil companies and have gouged us more than them in the past fifteen years. You want socialism because when the market bears at affordabity limits, if education is subsidized you know you can charge more, and you do. You want governenment subsidies so you can get more than you deserve. Every social engineering policy tried has failed miserably and has hurt the people it was meant to help i.e. how affordability was made worse for housing due to socialistic policies like the Community Reinvestment Act.
Our elderly have paid into social programs and Obama will bankrupt and swamp these resources with deadbeats that ought to be out working and earning. Younger workers need to be sled dogs to help pull the weight of an aging population, we don't need lazy losers who feel "entitled" or Obama's base.
You don't build a middle class by letting the government control the resources of our Nation. Think about how resources will be doled out if Obama, Pelosi, Reed, Frank, etc. gets your money, they will give to groups like ACORN. Don't believe me, 20% of the Bailout money was headed to ACORN in the first draft of the bailout. At least private companies have profit and loss responsibilities and have to compete. Governments don't so if we let Obama control our wealth and resources we'll let government control them. Do you think government ever does anything correctly? Government screws up everything so the last thing we need right now is to let them tie up our wealth, which is one of our resources. Second tiered socialistic nations control their nation's wealth and that is why they aren't competitive and why their best and brightest come to the United States.

John, no one believes you, don't worry, tool.

Here again, we have a blog from john p who has never learned the difference between fact and opinion. As a retired teacher, I know how difficult that concept is for students to learn. His conclusions built on opinions are like a house built on quick sand. While the "house" may appear to be made of facts, it stands on a foundation of opinions. I have agonized over what the educational system can do to better prepare future generations to look beyond the smoke and mirrors of faulty opinions.

Typical globe....blah, blah, blah....Ohhhhhh....cheney is endorsing MdCain. Um, anything in the Globe about The Chosen One saying he's going to bankrupt the coal indursty? Where, oh gee, we currently get half of our electricity? Yep, front page of the Globe on Wednesday if heaven forbid, the Chosen One wins will be Mission Accomplished. So much for any integrity in journalism.

People, before you pull the lever for Obama, go to utube and type in "Obama paramilitary". Another example that has somehow evaded the media.

"Government screws up everything"--I guess that explains why we've done so poorly in Iraq. It doesn't explain why we did well during the first Iraq war, or World War II, or World War I. It also doesn't explain why our firefighters do such a good job. Or our police

All you citizens of Pennyslvania, do you have your bibles and guns out as Obama said you cling to? Well, if Obama gets in, you will need both, the bible to pray that Obama only last 4 yrs. so he cannot continue to harm this nation any more, and your gun to protect yourself and your family from the additional crimes we will have because of radical and socialist governing.

Wow, looks like "john p" needs to cut back on the kool aid for a while...hard to believe anyone could be so bitter and so wrong at the same time...his cast of characters have been running the show for a while now and the results have been disastrous and the "government that srews up everything" had to step in and bail out his friends...it's time for people that actually believe in "government" to take control for a while and try to straighted out the mess the the friends of "john p" have created...see you at the polls, my friend.

Who cares what the crackers say? Get your champagne ready -- Tuesday is Bye Bye day for McCain and Palin.

"You can not defend Obama's house purchase with Rezko"

Sure can. Rezko had no criminal record and the deal was at fair market price with no quid pro quo. Very capitalist.

"He almost broke a record voting "Present", he voted 97% down party lines"

McCain always breaks record for most absentee Senator. I smoked your rant with a quickness.

You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. So it’s not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations. - Obama telling the hard truth and taking hits for it.

The newspapers that support McCain would hardly be expected to do otherwise. The Pittsburgh paper is owned by a man without integrity who hardly cares about anything except having a country that exceeds to his needs.

The New Hampshire paper seems to think that continuing to do what has not already worked is sound. That seems stupid if not insane to me. There statement that there is hardly a reason to take a chance seems rather self serving. McCain is the patsy for Washington lobbyists and we know what that has brought. So we hardly could do worse than turning the government over to people like Paul Volcker, Colin Powell and Warren Buffett.

At least with Obama there is a talented man who has not sold his soul to run in this election. I know John McCain from earlier years and those who talk about his character are suffering from dementia. Those days are long gone.

SILLY SARAH and POOR JUDGMENT MCCAIN are in for a rude AWAKENING----Obama/Biden '08---Get out and VOTE!!
