I have no idea why he picked Palin... but last night she seemed like a bad a$$ b*tch on TV.

If Obama get elected, I sure hope he doesnt make the same mistakes with terrorists as Clinton did. I hope hes 100 times more of a man than Clinton was.

The war (not just Iraq) is the #1 most important issue our country faces right now. Forget Afghanistan and Iraq, look at all the tensions with Iran, Pakistan, Lebenon, Syria, (I think the Saudi's are as bad as any of them yet Bush seems to bend over for them), North Korea, Russia.. etc.

McCain is the right man to lead our country right now in this time of crisis.

Sarcastic with a smile while reading a speech she was in isolation for two days preparing to deliver.

That's not bad ass. The top of her ticket is the bad ass - and he doesn't even pretend to believe in creationisim either.

In an effort to promote understanding between blue staters like me and red staters(I'm not sure how to describe the cultural divide) I can disclose the following:

I secretly think that Iraq war is about oil and not weapons of mass destruction. I believe that Bush-Cheney and many other type A, I'm the biggest kid in the sandbox personalities also want to get into Iran and control the Middle East oil supply. I think they justify taking other people's resources as a means of long term survival.

I don't think this is the correct way of dealing with the world.

But(and here's my disclosure),I might be wrong, maybe we do need the cutthroat bastards watching out for our self-interests at the expense of the rest of the world

At the end of the movie, "Three Days of the Condor", Lawrence Olivier says to Redford (and I'm para-phrasing to the best of my memory): Now it's about oil, but someday it will be about water. When your family has no water to drink, will you care what your government has to do to keep your children and yourself alive

Thank God for YOUTUBE, here is the last 5 minutes of the movie:

Oh shut up.

Well, it wasn't Lawrence Oliver(I was confusing Marathon Man) and it was food, not water, but an enjoyable scene. There was a cultural divide of sorts between those two fella's in the movie
