Re: To Ayers Or Not To Ayers?
Things that definetly won't be discusses at the debate tonight...
1)Illegal immigration 2)Border Security 3)China's unfair trade policies towards the U.S. and their record of human rights abuses(I could be wrong on this one) 4)Where the nuclear waste is going to be dumped if we do create more nuclear plants. This is relevant to both campaigns because Illinois produces a lot of nuclear waste and McCain has gone on record as supporting the odious Yucca Mountain project. 5)Why the U.S. education system is so far behind many other developed nations. If this topic is brought up during the debates and Obama calls for more money being thrown at the problem I hope McCain tosses out appropriate rebuttals. 6)Flaws in the government bailout plan that they both supported. I'm glad I'm missing tonights stump speech/debate.

Re: To Ayers Or Not To Ayers?
McCain has been falling further behind because he has not effectively articulated an economic plan in terms the voters understand, because his healthcare plan is such a horrid mishmash that he has actually scared many seniors, because we still don't know what he would really do with our sons and daughters in Iraq--begin withdrawing them in February or leave them there for a hundred years, and because he is tied to the policies and the personnel of an administration which many Americans regard as a complete failure. He is behind because he has changed positions on too many issues and we don't know if we can trust him to do what he says, or if he will change his mind again tomorrow.
These are the things that John McCain needs to address. This is his last chance to communicate directly with so many voters, and he needs to convince them that he can handle the challenges facing our next president. If he decides to waste valuable time talking about William Ayers and other so-called "character" issues, then he will have lost this election, irrevocably, tonight, because he will have failed to do what needed to be done. He won't be able to blame anyone but himself. |

Re: To Ayers Or Not To Ayers?
I am an American who has the right of free speech to do so. I am also an American who doesn't make baseless assumptions about others as I prefer to avoid looking foolish.

Listen to what you are saying. Suppose you are a big tough SOB and you did me really wrong. Would I be justified in placing a bomb at your house and taking out your wife and kids just so I could "get you"? The fuck is a coward, take a poll if you have to. Whats next? Timothy McVeigh was justified too?

For those oblivious to the obvious, because his tactics are cowardly.

Re: To Ayers Or Not To Ayers?
Unless I am mistaken , one of his bombs was placed at the home (read that residence, ite?) of a judge. What about Timmy Mac? Are you going to defend him too? He did the same thing , but was obviously better at it. Is he a hero of your too?
