The McCain campaign as well as you rightards don't have anything of
substance so you have to run down what ever is done to Obama's Website.
Petty, petty... you should be more concerned with the economy dive of the
country,
the banks failure of your free market without government oversight and
strict
regulation, the price of gas because nothing was done to get us out of
foreign
oil dependence, nothing to shore up our dollar that is causing the price of
everything
to skyrocket, including gasoline. In other word, we're adrift, waiting for
somebody
to save us, and that somebody is not McCain, with same idea as the one we
have now.

The surge is working to keep violence down, costing us $12 billion per
month, but
the fundamental problem of getting all factions together to govern
themselves has
not worked yet. While we have all those troops in Iraq where they should
never gone,
Afghanistan is exploding, and that's the place we had business to be in,
where the
attack came from. You yo yos are too stupid to see the real picture. So, get
lost, Dennis.
