This is not a political blog, however with a pretty historic election coming up, I wanted to write up my opinion at least somewhere. I’ve been a champ (for the most part) of keeping politics off of my Twitter profile. So, at least I can vent on my own blog at least once. Here I go…I will be voting for John McCain for Presid (Read More)

: I respect this guy's opinion, but he's presenting his views as independently-thought, but they're pretty much the standard talking points coming from the GOP. He lost me when he got to the "associations" point, since he's just regurgitating the GOP line, and if he really independently looked at both of these guys' associations, would find questionable on both sides. And really, Acorn, look it up, not any closer to Obama than it is to McCain (who was a keynote speaker from them in '06). These are both establishment men, who have both done admirable work for the country but have also compromised to get where they are. That's how our country works. If you really are going to make an independent decision (which probably nobody does), read the policies with a blind eye, listen to what reputable people (i.e. nobody online) says about them, look at their records. Ignore the talking points.

: @Macztar I too am voting for Bob Barr. As a member of the Libertarian party I have found the other candidates platforms leading away from a government based on the precepts of The United States constitution. Many will say that Libertarian candidates don't a have chance to get elected. The libertarian platform is the US Constitution. The future looks bleak for our republic. Libertarians will keep their integrity despite the outcome.Earl Wallace 19

The hands-down lamest excuse of Americans attempting to deny accusations of prejudice has long been: "But, some of my best friends are (African-American/Latino/gay/fill-in-the-blank)."In the flurry of news stories that first started coming out about Sarah Palin following John McCain's choice of her as his running mate, it w (Read More)
