    Republican Sen. Wayne Allard of Colorado made Democrats put their votes where their likely nominee’s rhetoric is.

    Allard sponsored an amendment to the budget that included everyone of the $1.4 trillion in new spending — $1,400,000,000,000 — $1.4 million million — over five years that Obama has proposed on the campaign trail.

    The Senate shot it down, 97-0.

    Even Sen. Obama voted against President Obama.

    It was just like his campaign staff assuring the Canadian government that Obama had absolutely no intention of doing what he told Ohio voters he would do on Nafta.

    The amendment offered $1.4 trillion in new spending over five years and the equivalent tax hikes required to pay for it, covering 111 proposals that cost estimates could be generated for. Obama has at least another 77 proposals that weren’t included in this amendment.

    Can we promise crap we have absolutely no intention of delivering?

    YES WE CAN!

    Can we fool the weak-minded?

    YES WE CAN!

    Can we replace the tired old Washington politics with Chicago-style politics?

    YES. WE. CAN!

    It matters to most Americans and the polls show that this Country does NOT want another Bush league president.

    I'm confused.

    You just said that Bush has done for 7 years the same thing Obama is doing. Then you say that the country does not want another President like Bush.

    So does that mean you're voting for McCain?

    What I meant is that Bush has made promises he hasn't been able to keep an and he's been fooling the weak minded for the past 7 years. Sorry I confused you. Right now my vote is going to Obama.

    I don't think anyone in the race is comparable to President Bush so, the sentiment is still irrelevant.

    Thank God for that. It is not irrelevant. America doesn't want another Bush like president. And that is a fact.

    Then they don't want Obama?

    I raised the irrelevancy of your comment when you compared Obama's hypocrisy on his spending programs to what Bush has done for the past 7 years.

    I think you've confused yourself here, Joe.

    Do you guys still wonder why I'm less fearful of a president Obama vs. a president McCain?

    He'a a typical democrat in that he tells the people what they want to hear. When it comes time to make recorded votes, his record isn't that bad.
