Unfortunately, Palin & McCain will be attending something or holding a rally right across the street from where I work.

They want to convince us to place MORE of our energy capacity in the path of hurricanes. After all, a large percentage of the 'new' domestic drilling being contemplated is in the Gulf of Mexico! Over 60% of available domestic oil and 75% of domestic gas reserves are where.....! http://www.eia.doe.gov/oiaf/aeo/otheranalysis/ongr.html

I work with the organization that runs the 866-myvote1 line (Joyner just promos he doesn't really have all that much to do with the rest of it) and I can definitely say that a lot of it is on the B of E's end. They "never got the information" or "cant find it" or "You're not registered" (even when you are). Every person who registers via our 1866 number should definitely follow up with BofE if they have not recieved their registration card. You really should do it if you are in the south. Thats where we've been having the most problems. Texas, Georgia, Alabama, Florida....anywhere below the mason dixon line basically.

PEOPLE PLEASE,
Participate in EARLY VOTING! It will save you time and hassel. If you are in a state like GA that doesnt require that you give a reason to vote absentee you should consider doing that.

I'm registering people here in Ohio. My county's B of E is typically sending out "new registration" confirmation material about 10 days to two weeks after their registration requests are received.

Since I'm hand-delivering all the new registrations that I take to the B of E office, there should not be any "process problems."

I, also would urge anybody with the option of early voting to do so. --- Then consider using Nov. 4 to help others (particularly, the elderly) get to the polls.

(in Ohio, early voting begins Oct. 1.)

have folks seen or heard about this? some group calling themselves, i believe, Blacks Against Obama tried to disrupt an appearance in FL: http://www.breitbart.tv/?p=178233
i would love to know who's behind this. i have theories...:mad:

I saw it....let's see who makes a stink and that will tell you who is behind it...

Tired of the Politics of Politics!
 

If Obama doesn't win..... :mad: :mad: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I live in Nashville and just had to take a number to get gas, which was given to me by one of several gas station attendants manning the pumps while police directed traffic. THERE IS NO GAS IN THIS CITY! This is where I draw the line! If people do not get out and vote and realize that these gas shortages are more about middle eastern foreign policy.

New McCain add...Racist?
 

Now, everybody wants to play "The Race Card" like its the High joker and we're playing spades, but this is a bit much.

Its a new McCain camp add against Obama. The add would make sense IF and only IF Raines was Obama's advisor. He was not. The actual Fannie Mae guy who worked with Obama was white. The add is racist, bump what some people want to say in defense of it.

Seriously? Please stop it!
 

In a video posted on YouTube, the Dallas forward is shown at Allen Iverson's charity flag footballgame in July. When the national anthem is being sung, Howard says, " 'The Star-Spangled Banner' is going on. I don't celebrate this [s***]. I'm black."
It didn't take long for Obama enemy number one, Rush Limbaugh, to jump in and use it as fodder on his radio show yesterday, according to Eurweb.com.
"You heard it, Obama '08. So here's an Obama supporter, another one, in addition to Reverend Jeremiah Wright saying God bleep America," Limbaugh told his audience. "This man has become wealthy in this country, Josh Howard has. And, by the way, it's not just black athletes. There are certain black singers who are refusing to sing the national anthem at black events. They're singing the [black] national anthem, whatever that is."

All these so called "Patriots" and "real Americans" who are running around talking about how great America is because Howard can even make the comment and how soldiers are dying so he can say what he wants are getting on my dayum nerves.
If I have freedom of speech let me use it. Do not try to crucify me when I say that I could care less about the Star Spangled Banner and that I happily stand and sing along to the Negro National Anthem ("whatever that is") with my fist in the air. And don't get mad because I do not say or respect your pledge. I am American and as such I have a right to NOT say or do whatever I want.
And please don't get it twisted soldiers are not dying so that I have freedom of speech. They are dying because we have a government that is run by an idiot who believes it is his destiny to control the world.

And one more thing...Why is what some random athlete says all of a sudden political news?

I was reading your post and it just struck me as odd that some will try to judge whether others are patriotic. What is the true test of whether someone is patriotic?

For example, if my ancestors built much of this country using nothing but their bare backs, strength and grit, and they did it for FREE; if my ancestors got eaten up by dogs, hosed with water, etc. to promote the ideals that are embodied in the rights in the constitution in AMERICA, am I not patriotic if I criticize the country. Do I not have the right? Ok, tell you what, just give me the money that's owed to my ancestors for all that free labor that made some of the majority population in this country wealthy (or at least gave them land and a start in life) and we'll call it even. How about that? Oh, and can I get the money with interest?

I'd better not hear one person call someone unpatriotic around me. The main ones calling someone unpatriotic are NOT the ones who built this country with their backs, had their families ripped apart for its southern economy, and did all that FOR FREE.

Now THAT'S patriotic!

For anyone interested Obama will be making an appearance in Green Bay, WI tommorrow at noon.

1901 S. Oneida Street
Green Bay, WI

I wish he were here in Delaware County, PA...instead McCain/Palin will be at the Delaware County Court House/Municiple Building today :(

I did not get a chance to watch the 60 minutes feature with Obama & McCain...did anyone catch it?

Is it on Youtube? I've found that to be a very good source for whatever I miss on TV. Usually, the taped version is on You Tube.

I watched it. The interviewers asked some tough questions. I was slightly distracted so I will probably watch it again http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/60mi...main3415.shtml
