President Obama has an 83% approval rating. Why are so many of the old Bush followers deserting their party?
Only 17 percent of Repub die hards left. The rest wish Pres Obama well. My respect level is definitely up for the Republicans. They have finally come to their senses. I know you don't see it here among the ranters and ravers. The intelligent ones are going about their business. Don't hold it against them because of the minority here that are clinging to what's left of their party in shambles. Ignore the haters. You can't convince everyone to be sensible.
10 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoIf you were Obama what would be the first thing you would do in office?
20 AnswersElections1 decade agoIs this a McCain ploy to be like Obama?
I now hear that McCain has black relatives who are supporting Obama. That his great grandparents were slave owners and had relations w/their slaves. WOW, isn't that a trip. Maybe McCain IS prejudice? I heard he didn't want MLK to be a holiday, but I had no proof he was prejudice. But if his family owned slaves then that kind of philosophy travels down through the blood lines. That feeling of being superior because you actually OWNED a slave could be pretty entrenched in his family values. Very interesting. Your thoughts?
11 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhy did Colin Powell say that Obama's candidacy was transformational?
Why does he have so much faith in him? I heard he is dissappointed with McCain's campaign and they are good friends.
7 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhat is wrong w/being a muslim? ?
Muslims are fighting in Iraq for America. So, what would be the big deal if Obama WAS Muslim? I know he's a Christian, I just don't understand the obvious racism of muslims in this country.
24 AnswersElections1 decade agoDid Sarah Palin make a fool out of herself last night on SNL?
I thought she looked rather sheepish and silly. LOL It was HILARIOUS though.
6 AnswersElections1 decade agoHow does the average 'middle american' benefit from a capital gains tax cut?
My guess is not at all since you have to have property to sell to benefit from that. Not all of us have seven houses.
5 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhy is 'Joe the Plumber' a centerpiece in McCain's campaign?
Is it perhaps because he has nothing else? Joe is not even a licensed plumber yet? He also doesn't believe in McCain's philosphy. But he did vote for McCain in the primary. My guess is that he was a plant. I still don't get why he's going on and on about Joe's dream though.
3 AnswersElections1 decade agoDid you hear that McCain's campaign is being compared to a sinking ship?
This I heard was said by a pundit FOR McCain on CNN? True or not?.
10 AnswersElections1 decade agoIs McCain putting Obama's life in danger by gutter politics, causing people in the audience to yell terrorist?
Palin says she is a Christian and yet I hear her and John stirring up hatred and racism. I heard someone in McCain's crowd shout terrorist. Jesus said you shall know them by their fruits. Well, the fruit that is falling from the McCain/Palin tree is definitely NOT sweet. Isn't Jesus the God of love and compassion? Obama and McCain were polled on compassion and guess who won? It wasn't McCain/ Palin that's for sure. Obama won by a wide margin. Obama is showing to be the more presidential don't you think?
12 AnswersElections1 decade agoIs their any doubt that McCain is a racist now?
When McCain gets angry he speaks his true heart. During the debate he couldn't even give Obama the respect due a Senator and called him "THIS ONE voted . . . "!! If you have not seen the debate, I recommend that you do so.
6 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhy would John McCain vote against Martin Luther king day?
17 AnswersElections1 decade agoThe terrorist bs didn't work for Hillary. Will it work for McSame or Slow Sarah?
Not likely. I think they would have to come up with something new. These allegations have already been made and thrown out. Trying to pin allegations because of other people's past behavior 40 yrs ago is a bit of a stretch don't ya think?
11 AnswersElections1 decade agoAre you smelling the fear and desperation from the McCain supporters?
Isn't that why they are crying terrorist regarding Obama. We all know that is utter nonsense, but the McCain camp is getting very desperate seeing that the toss up states are leaning towards Obama. It is apparent that these so called CHRISTIANS are unscrupulous when it comes to winning. They will lie, cheat, whatever it takes to win. They truly give Christianity a bad name.
27 AnswersElections1 decade agoDoes S. Palin make Dan Quayle look like Colin Powell?
Also did you see Sat Night Live? They took actual whole sentences from the interview of S. Palin and Katie Couric. That is scary when the writers can copy word for word from actual interviews and still be funny. Sarah seems to be making their jobs fairly easy.
11 AnswersElections1 decade agoHas anyone here seen the CNN survey on who people think won the debate?
67% think that Obama won. 27% McCain, so forget the pundits. Look at what the PEOPLE are actually saying.
26 AnswersElections1 decade agoIs McCain afraid to look at Obama in the debate?
He looks like he is intimidated?? Is that how he would meet w/world leaders in negotiations? If so, Obama is much more presidential. You at least have to be able to look at world leaders in the eye. I think it's kind of wimpy.
7 AnswersElections1 decade agoIs the media really out to get Sarah Palin?
C'mon now! Aren't you sick and tired of the Republicans wimpering and crying that Sarah Palin is a victim of the liberal media or a witch hunt?. Being VP and possible President of the United States of America is a TOUGH, HARD job. If Miss Queen Palin cannot handle the pressure of questions from the United States media than how is she going to be able to deal with world leaders??? I say, quit the darn excuses! We Americans are sick and tired of hearing the VICTIM theme from the Republicans regarding Miss Palin. She needs to get her bottom out there and answer questions from reporters so we know what kind of VP or possible President she will make. If she can't answer the questions, then we have the right to know NOW and not later. Are you with me?
32 AnswersElections1 decade agoDid I hear correctly that Henry Paulson has no Wallstreet experience?
This MILLIONAIRE dude was hired with NO Wallstreet experience? Why does the Republican BUSH administration hire people who are inept. Is this another BROWNIE hire??!! He was saying Sept 07 how great our economy was and so was McCain. Wasn't he saying "The fundamentals of our economy is strong??? Only Obama was saying that was BS. Now just last week Henry Paulson says we are on the verge of a great depression?? What the heck? Who is this guy and why should we trust him?
4 AnswersElections1 decade agoDoes the average American even know what deregulation is?
This word, along with earmarks, etc. has been talked about the past week or so. I often put questions on YA regarding this important aspect of the stockmarket downturn. However, I don't get very many responses. I think that the average American just doesn't understand the Economic crisis or even what deregulation is. Would you say that is true?
