I am a registered Republican, at first I had decided to vote for John McCain, but later changed my mind. When it came to my knowledge that he abandoned what he originally stood for and over the years adopted the Bush hard line. It’s understood that he wanted to prove to the Republican base he was one of them and not the maverick they disliked, which proves his inefficiency to stand up to the Republican Party.

On separate occasions the McCain’s stated that they were not going to run a nasty campaign, which they contradicted by providing us with dishonest commercials, campaign speeches, and interviews. They denied to the press of having carried out such a campaign. They said whatever they stated regarding themselves and Barack Obama is a fact. Several times John McCain stated that if Barack Obama had done what he had suggested then he could have run a more civil campaign. This sounds like imposition to me. Doesn’t he realize that we can see through this excuse?

When people in general raised questions regarding John McCain’s age he assures them of having an experienced Vice Presidential candidate, in case something happens to him. Hence he decided the best person for this position would be Sarah Palin. This leaves the country in dismay as she has limited political experience.

However, she was introduced at the Republican convention as a maverick, a reformer, who did not take earmarks, nor support the bridge to nowhere, and who never indulges in wasteful spending. Besides she was declared as an expert on the economy, well versed in foreign affairs, and having more experience than Joe Biden and Barack Obama put together.

Recently in an interview on Sarah Palin, Charles Gibson (reporter for CBS) proved the claims about her to be false. She is a devout Christian, but she refuses to tell the truth, and when Charles Gibson asked her to revise her blatant lies she refused too. Isn’t this violating the laws of Christianity? Thus it seems she is willing to compromise her religious faith to be the next VP of the United States of America.

She has extreme beliefs and views on many subjects like the Iraq war (she thinks this war is God’s will), abortion (she does not believe in it even in circumstances of incest and rape and if she gets a chance she will overturn Roe V. Wade), views on hunting (she allows people to shoot animals from planes), taking protection way (wants to take polar bears off the endangered species list). Besides she attends a church that believes in getting rid of homosexuality through prayer and that Jews have been persecuted for their refusal to believe in Jesus. She is currently under investigation for a possible abuse of her power as Governor of Alaska. Lastly, she feels global warming is a natural phenomenon and there is no evidence that it is man-made.

As for my belief on the abortion issue I do not believe in abortion for myself as a choice, however, I do believe it should be a woman’s choice and not the federal or state government’s. God did give humans free will to make their own decisions and as a result we are responsible for all of them. God will be the final judge of all our sins and all sins are created equal in God’s eyes. So, does anybody feel Sarah Palin somehow forgot this?

After being disappointed in John McCain and how he has chosen to run his campaign; I decided to start watching the Democratic campaign speeches and realized Obama is at least talking about the issues like the economy, job loss, health care and education. McCain spends the majority of his time distorting Obama’s record and lying about his proposed ideas for this country. You would think McCain would spend his time talking about what he is going to do for this country. Well the most ironic thing McCain has done is now he is talking about being the change candidate. Does anybody think it’s strange that for the last 18 months or so McCain never mentioned being the change candidate? As I remembered, McCain was running a campaign for the last 18 months or so on experience.

On September the 15th the stock market fell more than 500 points, then Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy; job losses is still at a record high and gasoline prices are on a rise again. On this same day, McCain at a campaign rally made the following statement “he thinks the economy is fundamentally strong”. Does anybody really think McCain is in touch with what’s going on in this economy? Well, McCain shame on you.

“what about the stuff that really matters like jobs repairing healthcare economy education repairing our relations with other nations gas prices and they stole obamas campaign slogan change”

Jobs. it’s called looking for one. People are too self-conscious when it comes to looking for one, so they sit and home instead and complain about the lack of those “prime” jobs. Most of those laid off were usually the unfortunate people who happened to work at an unstable/outsourcing company. That’s awful, and I feel bad for them. But if Johnny Stoner got laid off because he sucked at his job? Screw him, it was his fault for not turning the burger patties fast enough.

Healthcare. It works in Canada due to their level of taxes and federal funding (from your taxes).

Economy. Here’s an idea. Instead of buying things outside of your weekly, monthly or yearly budget(s) (not forseeing tragic events), put down your credit card(s) and live within your means. Yeah, you got a 52″ inch Plasma TV and can see all your favorite channels, but it set you back 3,000 that you didn’t have to begin with.

Education. Education is the trickiest of them all, but, in short bluntness, the public school systems need to be tougher on kids. A lot of instances where I’m located pass kids without proper marks because they do not want the kids as their problems anymore. If a kid got a 40 average his entire year and gets a D, that’s bullcrap, and it’s happening all over the nation.

World Relations. we haven’t solved it in 50+ years, we aren’t going to solve it in the next 4 or 8.

Gas Prices. Alternative resources need to be perfected and refined and TESTED in order to make an impact for the mass market. Hybrids are a step in the right direction for now, but new ideas need to hit the table.

Taking Care of Home. We can try to solve the problems of the ghettos but we need the ghettos help first. If we were to drop millions of dollars into the ghettos in order to increase education/educators and try to bring about change with the new generation, are they going to make the effort to come? We need to test it in one city (With a bad rapsheet) to see how the stimulus of the educators make an impact.

There’s some venom in some of this, I know, but it’s honesty. To be an honest America, we need to be honest Americans, no matter the cost.

What is actually true about Sarah Palin?

Had an affair when he was married? He even said so on the saddleback forum. He said it was his biggest morale failing.

Check your facts.

Seems the neocon wacked out fundies were all happy about Edwards being exposed by the National Enquirer but when it’s one of their own playing around while pretending to be married, well then it’s all the media’s fault.
