If I were an American and was to vote in the coming November elections, my concerns would be:

1) Isn't the Republican candidate Mr. McClain too old for the job? He,with his just published biography, seems to have already lived out his life - its a time for looking back and exulting may be, not looking forward to running the world's most powerful nation surely?

i have nothing to say to the people who say this is a great war. Yes I was in contemp. issues class today and well we just started talking about the Iraq War. (its been 5 years you know) and all of a sudden this new kid just blurts out "I think this is a great war we need to straighten those Iraqies out" I kid you not people those are the word that came out of his mouth.

 I was born and raised in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pa.  Lower Bucks Co. specifically.  Anyone familar with the area would describe to others this historically rich, ethinic deverse and formaly an industrial base of mainly middle class working people.  

Thank you for Barack Obama for making me feel better today.  Even I can bowl better than a 37 in 7 frames!  I guess these politicans are just like everybody else.

In today's podcast, Joel and I discuss how Muslims now outnumber Catholics and what that might portend for any dialogue between the faiths.

or
Nader '08
or
McCain '08

Every election is about "the future," to the point that candidates intoning about their "vision" for America is little more than a cliché of electoral politics. So what should the 2008 presidential election be "about"? Should it be about the candidates' biographies, their records of achievement, their character? Should it be about the failures, real and imagined, of the Bush administration? Should it be about the economy? How about the war?

This is just another leftist manifestoHarvested from a Baltimore ghettoMarketed from a hillside in IdahoIts impossible for me to sit silently by whilePeople are held without benefit of trial;Poor folks lose their homes as investment bankers smileAnd a nation of millions sits there in dumb denial Wondering who’ll win  American fuckin’ Idol(Complacency- like a cancer, rotting our society!)I am just a member of the immoral majoritySilly me- I choose death o’er not being free

Today's reason to get out of Iraq is brought to us by John McCain:

  When I was just a child, I watched my mother struggle trying to raise two children mostly by herself without much money, because my father was in the navy. He was off the coast of Vietnam on the Saratoga, then he was riding around the north Atlantic in a plane hunting submarines. She was a mother and a father to me. She was the strength that kept our family together.
