Who is Anti American and Who Puts Country First?

What is going on in our country and this election? Why can the Republicans only focus on division, hate and demagoguery? This country has so many issues that need discussion, yet the Republican candidate and his party just continue to focus on non-issues. John McCain's slogan is "Country First". What a JOKE!


If Senator McCain believed in country first, he would be focusing on the issues and not his own political gains. This campaign is just constant bullshit about Senator Obama. He pals around with terrorist, he's a Muslim, he's anti-American. A constant barrage of stupid and untrue allegations. There are crazies at these rallies screaming hateful comments and threats. This is America for God's sake. Anyone should have the right to run for any public office without the fear of what crazies the opposition may unleash.

Sarah Palin is at it constantly. Rally after rally, fomenting this hatred and lies. I have been conscious of American politics and Presidential elections since 1960 and this person is the worst choice I have ever seen for a running mate. She is NOT qualified to be Vice President let alone President. This just scares the hell out of me. We need to send her back to Alaska and pray she stays there.

Now we have the latest crazy to be unleashed by the right wing Republicans. This women is insane! She thinks Senator Obama is un-American and has even said that members of the Congress may be un-American. Why Michele? What makes him (or anyone else) un-American? Tell me. Is it simply that they don't share your opinion? Do you have facts or evidence of this statement? I believe that it is you who is un-American! You are an elected public official who uses your office and public platform to spew hatred and division instead of representing the voters who put you in office. I pray you lose your reelection bid.

When will this stop? I don't know, but I do know that it has to stop! The far right of the Republican party has been responsible for dividing this country for too long. We are all Americans. We all love our country. We all have the right to vote. We all have the right to decide if we are Republican, Democrat or Independent. We don't need the kind of hatred and lies being thrown out in rally after rally and these obscene robo calls. STOP THIS BULLSHIT! STOP IT NOW!


Today, I saw a truly great American put his "Country First". General Colin Powell is an American that has shown that he can transcend politics and see what our country needs at these troubling times. I commend General Powell for his patriotic actions.

I know who I'm voting for. I voting for the future of my country. I'm voting for the person who really cares about the direction our country has been talking and wants to be a part of changing that direction. I'm voting for the person we need to lead us at this time. I'm voting for Senator Barack Obama!!!
