 Where did you get the tax credit info from?  Or is that just speculation on your part? Actually, it doan mattah who wins as the situation in Iraq will be resolved bafo da election and that's da biggest drag on the economy. Also, there will be a move towards energy efficiency...and the good news is that the energy companies won't have to be taxed cause da mawkets gonna take care ovit. Then all we gots ta do is take care of da problums ahead with being able to meet the promises made to our senior citizens....which the Republicans purt near put into a situation that was irreversible....until America spoke and balanced da power.  Now we's good ta go! No mo favoritism in da bidness werld...lots mo competition bringing prices down and leveling the field so small startup companies can compete wit Nike, Apple, etc. It doan mattah who gits elected prez actually since the die is now cast. Ya'd better learn how to make the adjusto in yer portfolio....soon....real soon! |

| I just started with my portfolio and have not lost money. As far as the war goes, if show any sign of backing down from the conflict in Iraq (not war , it hasnt been a accutal war for almost four years and still it wasnt a war) they will see how easy it is for us to forget what it takes to finish what we started. I would hate to have seen what would have during ww2 if we would have quit after 3000 loses. We suffered more than that in one day on more than one occasion. This war is bigger than ww2 and if we dont finish it right, you wont have to worry about your portfolio because the market wont be here anymore. So choose wisley when you vote. Choose someone with enough backbone to stand up to the countrys that support terror. As far as you large companies making big profits, its called capitalism its what made this country what it is today. |

Sheeeyot...you are really under da ether....aren't ya? Da truth o'da matter is that the "terrorism ploy" perpetrated by da Bushies was nuthin mo than that!....a ploy. Ifn terrorism really was an issue we would have caght Osama by now....maybe Obama kin catch Osama! Tell me dat wouldn be kewel. |

| You can think your buddy Clinton for us not having Osama.You can also think him for showing the enemy if you kill our soldiers we will leave your country(I.E Somlaia) .If you think just catching one person will end it your wrong. They way we end it, is by showing we dont take crap from anyone and never back down. When they see we wont give up then they will start. Because we have alot more bombs than they do. |

Our current president thinks "catching one person" is the most important thing:
"The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him."
- G.W. Bush, 9/13/01
"I want justice...There's an old poster out West, as I recall, that said, 'Wanted: Dead or Alive,'"
- G.W. Bush, 9/17/01, UPI
But then I guess he changed his mind:
"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."
- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02
"I am truly not that concerned about him."
- G.W. Bush, repsonding to a question about bin Laden's whereabouts,
3/13/02 (The New American, 4/8/02)
All politicians are flip-floppers. We need a new party that actually says it like it is. |

| I am not defending Bush. Bush and the Joint Cheifs have made several misstakes pretaining to the conflict. We got to soft with our rules of engagment for one. But dont vote for someone just cause they want to pull out of Iraq before the job is done. Besides if you have been listening to the news Iran just kidknaped some british soldiers and we will need Iraq for the stagging ground to invaded Iran when the time comes. |

God help us if we go to war with Iran. Fortunatly we won't, we don't have the support, the troops or the money for that. If you had been listening to the news back in '02 Iran did this same thing and released the soilders about a week later. It's a pretty common thing unfortunatly. Also something the news won't tell you is that we have been capturing Iranian soldiers for a few years now, yes we are capturing them in Iraq but we are still capturing them.

Actually when 18 of our finest died in one day in some conflict in a far off land that most Americans barely knew about or understood they demanded Clinton scrap our mission in Somalia and completely withdraw. Sounds familiar doesn't it? When do we have to abandon Iraq now, September?
Take Somalia as a precedent for Iraq, the incedent happened in the late 90's and they are still in a civil war. And now once again congress, motivated by an uneducated American public is now setting a date to remove our troops from Iraq when they need us the most.
Clinton bombed several terrorist camps and had a real shot at getting Bin Laden after the barracks bombing BUT the American public was convinced that he was trying to divert attention away from sex scandals. And speaking of his sex scandals why did he almost get impeached for that when Bush has done way worse things and not a peep?!?
And Finally a Disclaimer: When I say American public, I don't know how else to phrase it and I'm so sure someone will be upset by it that I'm adding this disclaimer. What I mean is the general public who can't name more than 3 people on the famous deck of cards of wanted Iraqies, who are informed by our wonderful media and lead by our leaders pulling their famous political moves.

Well...it appears dat former New York mayer Julie Yanni took a big step backwards with his disregard fo the sanctity ov marriage. McCain is bordering on stepping over the edge with his commentary about socialism in Venezuela. He's right...it is a socialist country. But Chavez is the only one ov the "terrorist" countries that is willing to give da American buyin public a break...in this case wit cheeper than normal fuel. Chavez made a slick move when he decided to discount oil to the U.S through Chitgo stayshuns. Chavez likes the American people....he just hates da govmint. I can't blame him fo dat. Basides, mosta da fokes I know who own Chitgo stations would fit da mold fer "selective targeting" ifn they was to walk through an airport...but I still thinks they's awesome fokes in genrul. Anyhoo, you can already see the plan going into motion for relying less on imports from Asia and mo from Mexico (Latin America)...and I'm sho Canada will get into da mix. This is why da govmint just loosened restrictions on truck traffic outta Mexicali...this is why there is an immigrant problum with a solution by Dubya saying  "Hey!...yeah...I know they are illegals...but most Americans don't wanna werk at a job dat pays $12/hr when they can make $25 in the overpriced housing secter I created....or better yet...$50/hr cleanin up da mess we left in New Orleans!....let's make da Mexacali's our grunt werkers. Oh yeah, if sum "real Americans" wanna werk building da sooper highway from Mexico to canada they are welcomed to sign up....at $12 bucks an hour!" So dat's da plan...and it looks like McCain stepped in lightly with this commentary. My take is dat da Cubans, da Venezuelans, da Mexicalis, and even us gringos all really just want to get tagether fo a BIG pawty ova yonder at da Copa Cabana in Cuba! Stay tuned sports fans. Oh yeah...one mo thang The terrorist threat is a fig nootin of yer own imagination...but it probly ainna yer fault. Luckily I'm here ta save yuns from yerselves. |

| If Chavez cant sell his oil then he cant build his military. So why do you think he is discounting it. Socialism works great if you never want to better yourself and live off the gov. you whole life. Chavez is just another Castro Jr. but he has oil instead of cigars.He would destroy our way of life if he had the chance. |

And why do you think Chavez even got noticed in da first place? Is it becuz Earl is at $30 dallahs like it was when Dubya stawted? I doubt it. So now that Chavez is in a more powerful position becuz of da trade policies of da U.S. govmint...we are supposed to hold dat agin him while da clowns who trade Earl futures figure out it's too late to save themselves from gettin their a$$es kicked....right?  Relax....like I said...da Reaper takin care ov da Earl trade reeeeal soon. But to anser yer question. A few months back a bunch of little convenience stores nationwide stopped doing bidness wit Chavez cause ov the "perceived" terrorist threat. I don't recall which "7-eleven type" chain it was....but it all went down when Iran was looking even more in danger of a U.S. attack than they are now....things are tame now. Anyhoo, back at that time da Chitgo stations around heeeya held da line better than even the BP stations which of course should have been under duress cause of bad news comin outta BP....they simply COULN'T raise prices like say XOM. Plus Chavez made sho low income fokes had cheep heating oil during da winter season through a special program. Luckily fo Chavez he didn lose too much Earl revenue by being a "nice guy" huh?....I mean....he's still at da near top ov da govmint's terror list I'm sho....he wouldn be there ifn he was losin muny now would he? |

We sure proved...
what in Vietnam. That the people of that country had more will than we had bombs, even though we had enough for each and everyone of them. What did we prove there???? that we can do in another country as an occupying nation?
We needed to go after the people responsible for 9/11/01. The whole world backed us on that cause. Not to occupy Iraq just because Bush decided Sadam was the most evil ruler???????? What was keeping the Iranians in check? What about the ruler in N. Korea and the way he has starved whole generations of his people, what about the violence in Africa that the world choses to ignore?
Got oil?
Think about it before you chastise me as being unpatriotic or unappreciative of our military!. |
