Richard and Jamabelle - Can you cite even one credible an reputable source to substantantiate your allegations? If you’d take a few minutes to check out his homepage and read his positions on the issues you might find it enlightening. You might also discover that he has not proposed raising your taxes. As for your allegations, Richard, that a lot of Obama’s money is coming from Arab nations and muslim and terrorist organizations - just what is your source for such scurrilous allegations? Obama has said very clearly that he totally supports Israel. These oft-repeated canards about his not having done so are just that, canards.

Obama is a socialist that will not completely and unwaveringly support israel. which will bring WW3. No Jewish person or lover of Israel should ever support him.. his willingness to speak with and work with Iran, syria, Hizbollah and Hamas legitimizes their bad behavior and weakens israel. I truly believe that unbeknowest to Obamaa , all that money he’s getting for his campaign…a lot of it’s coming from Arab nations and muslims and terroist organizations. They are very much for Obama winning, if he wins.. the US pulls out, Israel is weakened..,nothing has been taken out of context…his election helps Hamas, hizbollah, Syria and iran..period. All jewish people, and also Jewish people on the Left coast should suspend donations to his campaign until he comes out and says he will not entrat with people who’d sole goal is the destruction of Israel.

Obama or his alter ego, Michele, do not say what they mean by “change.” Change what? The only thing I’ve heard is that his administration will raise your taxes, and implement more regulations, strangling hard-working Americans, and punishing those who work hard to achieve the successes they have. He wants to create roadblocks to success, almost guaranteeing that more jobs will be outsourced oversees. An Obama win is a lose-lose proposition for the American taxpayer and for corporations.

Mr. Obama will say anything to get a vote. Do you believe everything you hear? Obviously you do since you seem to totally trust Barack. Hopefully, he won’t make you regret it.

“Michelle Obama has recently come under fire by Tennessee Republicans for stating that she was “proud of America for the first time in her life” in old video footage. A degree of skepticism and reserve of personal approval are in line for the United States. While the country has many good points, a wise citizen cannot wear rose-colored glasses under the pretense that huge divides in human interest and civil rights have existed and do exist in this country. America, for all its’ beauty does not perfect the humanity that resides here.”
Excellent and well said.

Comment on We The People and the Power Brokers by Steve Dupere

To recognize any segregating aspect of man on any front is to propagate self-effacing proclamation to and of any underlying truths we outwardly administer as a requisite to our own system of values and beliefs.
All men, while indeed being created equal, have a standard of measure, that of its own hidden agenda, is all too often self-serving.
For all precepts our forefathers have set into place many have maligned each toward the vales of their own publicly skewing pretense; Therefore while all men are in fact equal of God’s device are we as well rendered separative by the fallible minds of man.
The writer of this particular article is in fact a man of great stature both intellectually and characteristically, in this man’s opinion — equal to all and greater than most in many facets of life as I see it.
Beautifully written article Mr. Walker.

You can be sure that the knuckle draggers will buy into the McCain-Clinton pettifoggery of a gas tax holiday. They’re all watching American Idol, NASCAR or WWF. As Winston Churchill observed, “The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”
