FIRST OF ALL, I AM ONE OF THOSE LIBERALS YOU DEPLORE. I CAN SEE FROM THE OUTSET THAT IF YOU THINK SARAH PALIN'S SPEECH WAS BETTER THAN BARACK OBAMA'S THAT YOU AND I HAVE VERY LITTLE TO TALK ABOUT.

BUT AS YOU CAN READILY SEE FROM THE POLLS AND THE ELECTION RESULTS MOST AMERICANS DO NOT AGREE WITH YOUR PERSPECTIVE.

THE EIGHT YEARS OF THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION HAS NEARLY PERMANENTLY DESTROYED OUR COUNTRY, ITS CIVIL LIBERTIES AND ITS ECONOMY.

OBAMA MADE SENSE TO AN AMERICAN POPULATION THAT IS HURTING BADLY. MANY OF US BELIEVE THE WAR YOU ARE FIGHTING WAS NOT WAGED FOR THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF OUR COUNTRY, BUT FROM SOME CLANDESTINE MOTIVE.

THERE ARE BILLION AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS NEEDED AT HOME TO REPAIR A RAPIDLY DETERIORATING INTRASTRUCTURE WHICH HAS BEEN IGNORED FAR TOO LONG.

BUSH'S MARKET DRIVEN ECONOMICS HAS ALLOWED OUR GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES TO OPERATE WITHOUT SUPERVISION AND THUS PERMITTED DELITERIOUS POLICIES TO NEARLY BANKRUPT THE COUNTRY.

BAIL OUTS OF BANKS AND BROKERAGE HOUSES AND NOW MORTGAGES THAT CANNOT BE PAID OFF FROM INCOMPETENT OVERSIGHT OF THE ECONOMIC CAPACITY OF BUYERS TO PAY DOWN THEIR DEBT IS GETTING A SHOT OF $700 BILLION DOLLARS IN THE ARM. ANTHER $800 BILLION WAS INTERJECTED INTO THE ECONOMY YESTERDAY FOR A LOAN TO CITIGROUP AND OTHER INDUSTRIES ON THE BRINK OF INSOLVENCY. YOUR CHILDREN, IF YOU HAVE OR PLAN TO HAVE ANY, WILL PAY FOR THIS THEIR ENTIRE LIVES.

THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION'S FREE MARKET PHILOSOPHER HAS GIVEN BIRTH TO BONUS'S OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO THE EXECUTIVES WHO HAVE DRIVEN THESES INSTITUTION INTO MASSIVE DEBT. WITHOUT DEMANDING RESULTS, CORPORATIONS CAN NOT SUCCESSFULLY OPERATE.

THE CORRUPTION THAT HAS PENETRATED MUCH OF THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION FROM HALLIBURTON'S RIP OFF OF GOVERNMENT THROUGH THEIR CONTRACTUAL NEGLIGENCE IN IRAQ HAS NOT ONLY TOLERATED, BUT BY THE FAILURE OF THE GOVERNMENT TO IMPOSE APPROPRIATE PENALTIES UPON HALLIBURTON AND TO INVESTIGATE THE RELATIONSHIP OF THIS COMPANY WITH ITS FORMER CEO, DICK CHENEY, THEY ARE SIGNALLING TO OTHER GOVERNMENT CONTRACTORS (AND THERE ARE MANY) THAT CORRUPTION OF MASSIVE PROPORTIONS WILL BE TOLERATED.

YOUNG MAN, YOU ARE SUFFERING FROM A LACK OF AN EDUCATED UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE CONSERVATIVES HAVE DONE TO OUR NATION.

YOU NEED TO READ MORE, STUDY MORE AND LET SOMEONE WHO COMPREHENDS THE REALITY OF THE PAST EIGHT YEARS TO WRITE THE BLOG. YOU ARE NOT PREPARED FOR SUCH A DAUNTING TASK.

Conservatives run on logic-liberals run on emotion, much like 2 year olds.

You know, I have to admit, if I were running president and people from IVAW wanted to meet with me, I'd ignore them too. It's not like IVAW is a respectable organization. They do the dumbest things and make fools of themselves. They're the military version of Code Pink and have become a joke! If McCain doesn't support the troops, let's just say he does a much better job at faking it than Obama does. He barely even tries.

However, I'm with you that both candidates are full of lies and nonsense.

I'll tell you why it varied. Obama's campaign agreed to meet with an IVAW representative in advance of the convention. McCain's campaign completely ignored numerous requests in writing. They didn't send so much as a no thank you. So that's where the difference comes in. The man that supposedly supports soldiers has apparently forgotten what it's really like to be one and blown us off. I should note I don't support Obama either. I think both major candidates are nothing but lies and nonsense, but that's politics for you.

Army Vet, you'll have to forgive me. I can't find anywhere on your site or in the media where IVAW interrupted the DNC candidate's speech! Perhaps you can enlighten us what IVAW did beyond marching sloppily in military uniforms. Standing by…

What I noticed was the distortion of the facts on the flag pin by CF. People were insulted by Obama for the excuse he gave for not wearing the flag pin. Obama as much as said that we were false patriots for wearing the pin.

Notice CF actually condones their behavior. It speaks volumes.

Well said CJ. What I can't tolerate is the lack of RESPECT that some of these groups show to others.

I think the IVAW folks were insulted by McCain because he wasn't wearing a flag pin on his lapel.

Oops, there goes another attack against Obama into the trash heap. Sue must be beside herself, seething in anger against McCain.
