We've just passed another milestone: George Bush has killed more Iraqis than Bill Clinton. Yeah, that's what I said. I don't keep the exact numbers handy, but Clinton's sanctions, while doing little to Saddam, killed hundreds of thousands of civilians, a high percentage being children.
Anyone who believes there are significant policy differences between Obama, Clinton and McCain is missing the whole point. These “scamdidates” are puppets for a higher authority. Period. It they weren't, they would be asked questions like: “have you ever seen a UFO?” at the presidential debates. It's very simple: challenge one of the biggest money makers in history of man (the Pentagon) and you aren't viable.
The “spoiler” in this, as any election, is greed. The “egomaniacs” are the people who sell their souls to get their names in American history books.
I have read several editions expressing the view that our votes don't count anyway so don't vote at all.
There are one or two things that power wants us to do in November: Go down the cattle chute and vote for preordained or don't vote at all. Either one is quite acceptable. What the masters don't want us to do is think for ourselves.
Forget “viable” and cast a vote for sanity, no matter how much of a long shot it is. This year sanity is spelled N-A-D-E-R.
Anyone who doesn't like that message, get a hold of me and we'll place a bet on what Obama does as president. I could use the money. Candidate for change - give me a break!

One thing I would like to see on the ballot is "NONE OF THE ABOVE". "

But you are quite right -- the lesser of two evils is still evil, and none of it sits well with me.
BTW, it was the Allies own fault that WWII broke out because the conditions of the Versailles Treaty were so unrealistic and harsh that they practically guaranteed another war. Keeping troops in Germany would not have changed that reality. "

BTW< "girlyman" is a compliment to me. The worst type of men are the ones hyper obsessed with their masculinity to the point of being macho A-holes. A little femininity is good for your soul.
Unlike McCain, who thinks that he has to be a macho man in his ridiculous statements. What a shallow insecurity he's trying to hide. This is the kind of jerk--like Bush and Cheney-- who will try to redeem their insecurities by sendng younger men to die for their "macho" swaggering on the world stage.
What we need is a communicator like Obama--not a thickheaded dolt like McCain. "

Obama said a piece of truth, and people are trying to turn it into something it's not, nor ever was. Get a clue, Get back on your medication!
Voting for McCain is like voting for 4 more years of Bush--if McCain even lives that long. More War, more trillions of dollars in debt, and an angry vindictive war monger in the White House--what are ou on--crack?!
A vote for McCain is a vote for Osama Bin Laden. "

This A-hole cost the Dems the last election and is too megamaniacal to realize that the last thing the country needs is anpother Republican war-monger in the White HOuse.
Voting for N-A-D-E-R is S-T-U-P-I-D!!!! "
