  • @bradlaw CNN can be relied on to report exactly what Obama tells them to… you are right. in reply to bradlaw #
  • @bradlaw Yep, Obama has no ties w Ayers: neighbors, O wrote a recommendation 2 A’s book, A kicked off O’s political career in his home in reply to bradlaw #
  • @bradlaw Obama & Ayers dont go out for beers, but I believe theyve distanced themselves since run 4 President. Its an issue of judgment in reply to bradlaw #
  • @richmond46 There’s been violence? And intentional actions by McCain or Palin to promote violence? Where’s your proof? in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 She should call him out, but thats a far cry from U stating “Palin [is] inciting people to violence”. in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 W/ that logic, I can say Obama supports terrorists because Annenberg project gave money 2 Ayers school (which is a stupid logic) in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 I agree that is the tactic, but bringing back fear of nat’l sec is far from inciting violence & should speak out against vio … in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 Awww… so now you are saying McCain & Palin R inciting violence & R racist. Seems every1 is racist if they criticize Obama. in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 Racism & violence = wrong, no argument. You R making a logic leep that McCain/Palin R promoting these based on one person words in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 McCain/Palin SHOULD speak out against what the person said in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 but those words were NOT McCain/Palin’s words nor have I seen them thru action or word support those views in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 Obama has a series of bad judgments in who he surrounds himself with: terrorists, racists, fanatics & only distanced himself in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 So can I say Obama promoted Ayers, Wright, Farrakhan, Odinga & others cuz he didnt speak out until pushed on his relationships? in reply to richmond46 #
  • @mike_wescott I know… I won’t defend some of McCain’s tactics, but “true believers” in Obama are blind to facts in reply to mike_wescott #
  • @richmond46 Why does he have tobe asked? Why is he always letting these people into his life? Who will he let into his life when President? in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 That is my concern: past actions/relationships provide trend 2 future relations/actions. He has shown poor judgment 2 many times in reply to richmond46 #
  • @richmond46 Since Obama hasnt spoken out against ACORN’s voter fraud, does that mean he supports it? (Using your logic, here) in reply to richmond46 #

  • @zik I see the hate, assults on protected groups (age, sex) from Obama followers on twitter&blogs, but nothing from Obama to be respectful in reply to zik #
  • @zik Obama followers spew as much hate & lies as McCain followers- its all wrong, but Ive only seen 1 candidate tell people to B respectful in reply to zik #
  • @zik your claims of McCain “whipping up racist froth” is as disenginous as any claim Obama is a terrorist. You should be proud. Hate 4 Hate in reply to zik #
  • @zik I agree w U on Columbus Day. Never understood Y that would B a “national” holiday. + always wondered where the native american day was in reply to zik #

  • @zik as always, I respect you regardless of your blind loyalty ;-) in reply to zik #
  • @zik I’m watching the Obama stream. What irritates me about both of these guys is both take responsibility of personal debt away from voters in reply to zik #
  • @zik “I understand that U went into debt 2 keep up, to get ahead because U had to”… no 1 had to get a credit card, no 1 had to get a house in reply to zik #
  • @richmond46 Short of our choice in candidates, I’d guess we agree on majority of things in reply to richmond46 #
  • nearly 58 million taxable households don’t pay taxes http://tr.im/cfa Over 1/3 & these arent the “top 2%”: wheres their patriotism? #
  • @zik Govt cant balance budget, dont expect voters to, everyone wants an easy way out or find someone to pay their way in reply to zik #
  • @zik agreed, credit system failed when it lowered financial requirements for credit/loans, debtors failed when they borrowed outside means in reply to zik #
  • @zik & govt failed when it forced FNME to push subprime loans for no reason than a sense of entitlement while FNME execs lied 4 big bonuses\ in reply to zik #
  • @zik That’s what it will come to, tho. We R building a dependent society - dependent on govt programs, intervention, support in reply to zik #
  • @zik resulting in sense of personal entitlement & lack of responsibility- its what eventually killed Rome & several founding fathers feared in reply to zik #
  • @zik You equate Iraq w Rome building an empire? Our huge expenditure on Military has little 2 do w military & more 2 do with govt contracts in reply to zik #
  • @zik but I agree that contributed to Romes downfall in reply to zik #
  • @zik our jump in military spending coincides w 9/11. For the most part, it stayed fairly steady for the past 60 years w/ no empire growth in reply to zik #
  • @zik so no comment on the fact that Obama pays women in his office 27% less than men? in reply to zik #
  • @zik we R both pretty entrenched on FNME & neither of our “facts” R going to sway each other - we’ll have to call that one a draw in reply to zik #
  • @zik we definitely have to do cost-benefit analysis on future military “operations”. People wont like that - we want it both ways in reply to zik #
  • @zik both ways as in “not being empiralistic & pushing our agenda” & freeing people from dictators in reply to zik #
  • @zik it’s all risk & cost benefit analysis with human lives vs budget- people cant be responsible w their own debt, they wont do it here in reply to zik #
  • @zik like everything else, it’s not B&W, FNME isnt 100% cause, but its a combination of FNME, Banks, Govt (DEM & REP) involvement in reply to zik #
  • @zik FNME’s portion http://tr.im/chj in reply to zik #
  • @zik I’m talking voter support, not govt use of military. in reply to zik #
  • @zik I’m not arguing presidential use of the military. Every president 4 the past 3 or 4 decades has picked atleast one bad ruler 2 support in reply to zik #
  • @wendelldotme Do you really think @zik needs “ammo” during a debate? That seems a sign of weakness in reply to wendelldotme #
  • @wendelldotme and your “ammo” simply uses the same original article from @zik as it’s source. in reply to wendelldotme #
  • @zik wont argue point w U. Dont feel like researching stats on dictator support & even then ther will B no defacto proof, lets say we agree in reply to zik #
  • @zik but it’d be nice 4 people to acknowledge the good we do, too, but that would be asking for too much - its easier to blame in reply to zik #
  • @zik heh, even when we agree, you argue <g> in reply to zik #
  • @zik if you never praise the good, the children never learn what the right actions are in reply to zik #
  • @zik you imply the US ony does bad by not saying what good we have done in reply to zik #
  • @zik US didnt want 2 get involved in WWI or II until forced. Is that were you want to be? in reply to zik #
  • @zik so you don’t think the father can learn but should be punished? in reply to zik #
  • @zik bad must be punished w/o a doubt, but to ignore all good because of some bad is dishonest and unfair in reply to zik #
  • @zik your analogy isn’t complete… so, the father sexually abuses his child and directly saves 1000 people, punish, save the 1 & save more in reply to zik #
  • @zik I think you fall into the camp of “america is evil” until everyone loves us. I just dont pitch my tent there. in reply to zik #
  • @zik I believe America is fundamentally a good place that has done some bad things in our life & we learn from them & move forward in reply to zik #
  • @zik Then why didn’t Obama release his economic plan last week and “save us all” much sooner? ;-) in reply to zik #
