Irish viewpoint on the US electoral race
 On one side, you have a pants wearing woman lawyer, married to a lawyer who can't keep his pants on, who just lost a long and heated primary that they still haven't paid for yet, against a lawyer who states he is african american when it is documented that he is only 12% african american, who goes to the wrong church, who has stated that he wants his countrymen to learn to speak Spanish rather than English, who refuses to put his hand over his heart and say the pledge of allegiance or wear the flag of the country he wants to run, who can't remember if there are 50 or 57 states in his own country, who is married to yet another lawyer who doesn't even like the country her husband wants to run. Now...On the other side, you have a nice old war hero whose name begins with the appropriate 'Mc' terminology married to a good looking younger woman who owns a beer distributorship. The choice is clear....what in Lord's name are ye lads thinking over there in the colonies??

Awesome!
"I've visited all 57 states" that is why he doesn't like the flag, he thinks the number of stars are wrong ---- The difference in Obama and McCain is this simple: Views on current wages in the US: OBAMA: His plan calls for short-term relief, such as a $500 tax credit per person to offset rising gas prices and an extension of unemployment benefits. He also wants to put in place longer-term measures, including a $10 billion infusion for state and local governments and a $150 billion investment in clean energy, both of which he says will spur job growth. Obama has suggested raising taxes on those earning more than $250,000 to pay for the policies. McCAIN: The presumptive Republican nominee wants to keep the top tax rate at 35% and maintain the 15% rate on dividends and capital gains. McCain also proposes cutting the corporate tax rate from 35% to 25%. Ask yourself this, what are the average revenues of a small business owner? $233,600 according to salary.com, lets hope none of their spouses work.

I was really hoping to vote for Obama a few months ago. He is a great speaker and really seems dedicated towards making improvements in the US.
But the more I learn about his policies, the less I like him. Punish the successful so middle America can continue to buy plasma's, iPhones and drive SUV's ??? How about instead, he gives everyone who sells their SUV's and buys a Geo Metro, a $500 tax credit..

Not advocating anyone in particular but policies spoken of now are nothing more that empty promises no matter who makes them. Promises made are no better kept than those who agree with or go along with the program.
Trust me none of them are Jesus Christ so expecting them to perform miracles is a bit short sighted in my view. One thing does seem certain, the majority of people are tired of the status quo. Quote:

 Felt the same way last year. I have to get down on my knees and thank the DNC for dragging their primary out and showing me who he really was. Man, had the election been around Feb/Mar, I'd of screwed the pooch.  Too many times Obama pins the future of the US on taxing. Way too many times. As if all the US ills could be fixed with dollars in the "right" hands. Way too Utopian for me
