Just how relevant is Reverend Wright.

Just how relevant is Reverend Wright.

I am so sick the media attention to the newest star Huckster Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Just how relevant to fixing this country problems is Reverend Wright. The great so called God fearing Black crusader who now is going to exploit this rift with Obama to peddle his upcoming book no one would have read until now.

Pay attention people, this is just another smoke screen to blind people from seeing the real issues that matter.

Just look at who McCain is kissing ass for, John Hagee. John McCain, naturally, is "very proud to have Pastor John Hagee’s support." Meanwhile, Hagee seems to hate Catholics about as much as Jews and Muslims quite a bit more so. McCain has a lot to be proud of. I wonder what McCain really stands for because McCain has changed so many of the positions he has held in the past just to get the vote of the far right.

If you wonder whose butt Hillary is kissing, just stick it out there she’ll kiss it for a delegate.

Obama is the only candidate so far that has not gone negative first. He has defended his positions when attacked and admitted that he did not agree with all that reverend Wright has said in the past, and admits that it is something that he needed to clarify his position on.

When they start talking about the real issues, issues that matter for the future of this Nation, that’s when you will get my attention again candidates.

Now listen Mr. McCain, Ms. Clinton, and Mr. Obama. I don’t care about your preacher, spiritual advisor, whether or not you’re white, black, gray, or gay, male or female, whether or not you where born to a foreign daddy or born in a canal zone. Let’s get real let’s start talking real issues that are going decide the future course of America. Who has the best ideas, who will end the strangle hold of corporate America over the congress and president of this great nation.

Let’s start talking about how we are going to end this mess in Iraq without starting WWIII.

Let’s start talking about how we are going to sustain social security. The government uses the surplus that has come into the treasury from the FICA in your pay check tax since the 1980’s to fund all the earmarked pork barreling, misguided military adventures and the missile shield star wars that have enriched the military industrial complex and bankrupted the nation.

Let’s start talking about how we are going to create real sustainable renewable energy projects not lowering gas prices.

Let’s start talking about what Americas roll in foreign affairs should be. Can we really be the world’s policeman any longer?

Let’s start talking about ways to fix our economy and set up sustainable import export policies that will protect our jobs and national security instead of throwing six hundred dollars at me like a rich man gives a crack whore as he tells her to get out of his Lexus and have a nice life.

Let’s start talking about how America should conduct itself to the rule of law and human rights. Ending the torture of prisoners and closing down the detention center at Guantanamo Bay would be a good place to start.

Let’s start talking about what we are going to do about our porous boarders and what should be done about illegal immigration.

Let’s start talking about restoring the power to the congress and repairing the damage done to our liberty by Bush and Co. so we don’t end up with another demagogue in the White House, who will use fear mongering to strip your constitutional rights away in the name of security.

Let’s start talking about what we are going to do about the corporate control of the media.

LET’S START TALKING REAL ISSUES!!!

Peace and Liberty through intelligence, strength, and integrity.

Let’s get back to issues

The last several days are a good example of how to divide your base and let another rightwingnut win the presidency.

Alright children let’s put an end to name calling and who said what to whom. Let’s get back to issues. Tell us specifically what you are going to do for the USA and at least an outline of how you will accomplish it.

Granted both Clinton, Obama, and Edwards have voted for Bush’s war money you all screwed up big time ok!!! Both Clinton and Obama have ties to big money, OK how are we going to end the strangle hold that big money special interests have on our country??

How are going to restore constitutional checks and balances to restore the balance to the three co-equal branches of our government, so that we don’t repeat the mistake of letting a complete moron of a president lead America into another endless war??

How will you end partisan politics in your appointments so that we don’t have another unqualified jerk hired because he kissed enough A$$ “Heck of a job Brownie” when the next Katrina happens?

How will you end big media control of information going out to the American people??

What will you do to restore our foreign policy so that we don’t create more enemies than we can possibly kill in a lifetime?

What will you do to restore American jobs and end the huge deficit that has been created by these mindless war profiteering thugs in power now??

Quit the name calling and get back to the issues so that we don’t have to endure another 4 years of a Ghouliani, Huckabuck, or a sneering McCain or poster boy Romney.

Peace and Liberty through intelligence, strength, and integrity.

Is it just me or does this upcoming presidential election looks more like a VEGAS sports booking parlor?

I watch a lot of political news shows like Tim Russert, Face the Nation, Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann, Joe Scarborough and some others that analyze news and politics. What I keep getting is that this is a football game and not an issue driven presidential election.

You can even bet on who will win the nomination and election there is an article on this at Slate.com.
http://specials.slate.com/futures/2008/

This country is in dire need of a change in direction. The people need to take back the government from the well financed special interests and but the power back into the hands of the people.

CNN has a list of issues that they think will decide the election their issues are Abortion, Immigration, Iraq, same sex marriage, Social Security, Taxes, Health Care. Same sex marriage and Abortion, Why are these even on peoples minds when they decide a president.
http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/issues/issues.abortion.html

Five of the seven issues above are important and I want to know where the candidates stand on issues that actually mean something. I am against abortion but I don’t feel I have the right to tell someone that they can’t have one after she has been raped or her life is in danger because of the pregnancy or for any other reason it is a personal choice issue.

Same sex marriage, who cares!!!! If Johnny wants to marry Todd, or Ruth wants to be with Anne what business is that of mine. As long as Johnny and Todd are 18 it is none of my business what they do as long as it does not interfere with my rights.

I want to know where they stand on creating and independent ethics commission to investigate congressional & presidential ethics misconduct.

I want to know where they stand on banning registered lobbyists form giving gifts to members of congress and their staffs.

I want to know where they stand on public financing of all elections and spending limits on campaigns.

I want to know where they stand on restoring our constitutional rights and from further degrading our individual rights.

I want to know where they stand on torture and indefinite detention.

I want to know where they stand on limiting corporate media ownership.

I want to know where they stand on American imperialism and reducing our military presence around the world.

I want to know where they stand on bringing back jobs to America.

I want to know where they stand on the President misleading and out right lying to the American people to get us into an illegal and unnecessary war.

I want to know where they stand on NAFTA, CAFTA, and all these other trade agreements that cause Americans to lose their jobs.

It is time we become agitators and demand Congress to do the will of the people and not the will of the highest bidder. America needs the courage to stand up and be counted now as in no other time in our history.

Constitutional Issues

Constitutional Issues

Our Constitution is under assault by an administration that bases ideology before reason. They have taken the core values that had made America a beacon of freedom and justice throughout the world and have become no better than the people that we are at war with.

Before I vote for someone I would want to know where they stand on these issues.

What do you think of this current administrations power grab and do you plan to repudiate their attack on the U S Constitution and restore the rule of law?

Do you support the bipartisan National Security Letter Reform Act of 2007 bill S. 2088, which would narrow the types of records available without a court order and establishes a standard of individualized suspicion for issuing an NSL?

Do you support Guantanamo Bay, Cuba Detention Center Closure Act of 2007 S. 1469 which would to require all inmates to either be charged with crimes and be transferred to Ft Leavenworth or be transferred back to their home country?

Do you support the American Freedom Agenda Act of 2007 H.R. 3835, this bill would repeal the Military Commissions Act of 2006, and clarifies that no information if it is obtained by torture or coercion may be used as evidence?

Do you support FISA legislation that would repeal current warrentless wiretapping and electronic surveillance, to not allow blanket warrants to spy on large groups of people who have committed no crime, and which would require court approval to spy on individuals?

To do the right thing is not always the easiest way but it is always the right thing to do.
