What I don't get is that both McCain and Palin say they've stood up to the corrupted republican party yet they want us to vote republican?
Once again. Unable to convince the people of this country that their ideas for running the government are in our best interest Republicans resort to the same old tactics that have served them well in the past.
Unemployment numbers hit a 7 year high; distract people from paying attention to that by getting a pliant media to chase after manufactured controversy over an innocuous old saying about lipstick on a pig.
The Shia led government in Iraq is beginning to disband Awaking militias and arrest Sunni leaders of those militias, accuse your oppenent of wanting to teach kindergarten children sex education.
Michigan looks like it might be up for grabs? Begin voter suppression efforts.

Michigan Republicans plan to foreclose African American voters
The chairman of the Republican Party in Macomb County Michigan, a key swing county in a key swing state, is planning to use a list of foreclosed homes to block people from voting in the upcoming election as part of the state GOP’s effort to challenge some voters on Election Day.
“We will have a list of foreclosed homes and will make sure people aren’t voting from those addresses,” party chairman James Carabelli told Michigan Messenger in a telephone interview earlier this week. He said the local party wanted to make sure that proper electoral procedures were followed.

Hebert, the voting-rights lawyer, sees a connection between Priesse’s remarks and Carabelli’s plans.
“At a minimum what you are seeing is a fairly comprehensive effort by the Republican Party, a systematic broad-based effort to put up obstacles for people to vote,” he said. “Nobody is contending that these people are not legally registered to vote.
“When you are comprehensively challenging people to vote,” Hebert went on, “your goals are two-fold: One is you are trying to knock people out from casting ballots; the other is to create a slowdown that will discourage others,” who see a long line and realize they can’t afford to stay and wait.

Unemployment rates are still lower than most other industrialized nations ( the EU averages 6.7%), the average unemployment rates under the Bush presidency is lower than any president in the last 40 years, average income has increased...what exactly do you see as being wrong with the economy??? Now is not the time to panic and start messing things up...the market needs to be left alone in order for it to fix itself.
Economy goes in cycles.
This recession is as much Bush's fault as the bursting of the Internet bubble is Clinton's fault.
it's not technically a recession neither, but your point is still valid.
Google search-Obama ACORN and voter fraud.

I'm certain Obama will have fleets of greyhounds ready to pickup anyone who will vote for him in return for a pack of cigarettes.
but unfortunately they'll be denied the right to vote by a mccain operative working at the voting booth as an "election official."
It's a wash.
Let's not talk about Acorn here.
Interestingly enough, DarkReign (IIRC) and I reside in Macomb County.
I'll throat punch anyone who tries to bog down the election lines. And DR is a ninja.
Funny how those numbers started to rise at th same time demcrats took control of congress!
Fo' shizzle.
Of corse, they'll stop when it doesn't work
Stop throat punching and being ninja-esque or the foreclosure thing?
Simple average unemployment under Nixon: 5.00%
Simple average unemployment under Clinton: 5.20%
Simple average unemployment under GW Bush: 5.21% (and trending higher)

wow 5.2 under clinton with relative peace. 5.21% under GW considering the internet bubble, corporate scandels, the sub-prime fiasco, and two wars.
dude is a genius.

I haven't seen the majority Democratic congress improve the recession at all in nearly a year of activity. In fact, I've seen the recession increase and energy prices rise.
The bottom line is that not every economic factor is within the President's control (nor is it in Congress's absolute control for that matter). An unemployment change of .01% is pretty much negligible considering the widespread economic crisis that has affected America with energy costs and tightening credit.
Not just any cigarettes - a pack of menthols.
"that both McCain and Palin say they've stood up to the corrupted republican"
... just another lie.
The pitbull lipstick is The Earmark Queen (hats off to St. Ronnie Reagan's bull ). McSame was corrupted by Keating.
and now these two "reforming" assholes are pure as fresh snow? running AGAINST the Repugs? It's ing delirious.
McCain has never filed a earmark and said he will do everything he can to stop this practice. Has Obama ever filed a earmark and what is his position on them?
