LOVELY: yes well--there are many dems who will be picking up a republican ballot
FAITH AMMEN: I'm so sick of hearing how sad and depressed American people are..."taking less hours so there friends don't lose their jobs?" Ok, let's have a little positive energy...
LOVELY: Yes the American spirit--that came from a belief in God and a drive to work hard and know that if you did the potential was limitless...
FAITH AMMEN: I love that Obama has no personal character or experience to make people love him...he has to piggyback on FDR, JFK, and Martin Luther King...10:50pm

KMC:
The "I will do this promises are so easy to make when you run for office..."And how does he insure a college education?
Who pays for it?
LOVELY: taxes baby
taxes are going to pay for education and healthcare
FAITH AMMEN: How does "I'll give you a government that will give you everything" coincide with sacrifice, hard work, and personal initiative?
LOVELY: and companies will have to pay these
so they will employ less people
KMC: So he will cram standards down insurance companies throats - thus putting them out of business and ushering in Government controlled health care...
10:34pm
LOVELY: And end dependence on foreign oil? The Dem morons wouldn't drill for the last 8 years? We still have to drill in the meantime before alternative energies are viable...

KMC: Its not a company's JOB to create JOBS... It is a company's job to provide a product, good, or service... The number of jobs that are created are dependent upon how well the company runs itself...

FAITH AMMEN: Who are the powerful people in the world? Who are the people we look up to? People who work hard and have individual responsibility. When was the last time you said, "My hero is this guy who made his living by surviving on welfare and government funded healthcare?" Is anyone else depressed? It sounds like America is in the Great Depression! Does anyone forget that we are the richest nation in the world? Why would you want to paint an America where everyone is jobless and single and dying of cancer!
10:28pm
Well whose responsibility is it supposed to be if we are looking for work, without healthcare, or in need of something?Whose responsibility is it to put food on my table?
Whose responsibility is it to keep myself healthy?
Whose responsibility is it to earn the money to pay the bills?
Just WHOSE RESPONSIBILITY IS IT Sen. Dummy?
10:24pm
KMC: Nation of WHINERS was a quote by Phil Gramm - not John McCain... he's aiming at the wrong guy.
LOVELY: And Obama has also voted with McCain and Bush 90% of the timeKMC: The red meat is not going to convince the independents - and that's who is supposed to be reaching for...
LOVELY: Dick Morris was saying earlier that the way that stat is calculated is by everything the Senate votes on... Like to congratulate high schools that win state championships, et etc... And those votes are all always unanimous, so Obama can lump himself right in with McCain and Bush. B
because big corporations give all the little people jobs.
10:22pm
FAITH AMMEN: Anyone want to get the tissues? We are going to get plenty of sob stories. Why would you reframe the American government that people fought and died for be reduced to being about healthcare and preschool?10:20pm
KMC:
KATRINA???? The stupid Democrat Mayor and Governor were the ones who let New Orleans drown... The Mayor had 2000 buses, and by law was supposed to use them to evacuate people... He kept them locked while 1000 people drowned...

KMC: "With gratitude... I accept..."
10:11pm
KMC: If Barack Obama believed and voted for the things he speaks about - everyone would vote for him. The problem is - the Barack Obama who casts votes in the United States Senate is not the Barack Obama in the biography video...
10:01pm
KMC: Dick Durbin is the warm-up goat for the night. And he is pathetic... Bush's broken promises? No Child Left Behind - promised, delivered. No attacks on Americans after 911 - promise, delivered. New prescription plan - promise, delivered.
