Wow, have you ever been brainwashed. That's exactly what a good Democrat/socialist is. What don't you get about the fact that gov't give-aways are paid by the little people! It's called redistribution of wealth. As for the 250K, you still don't get it. It seems very likely that most of us know at least 1 or 2 people who make that much and own a business. What if your offspring worked for one of these people and got let go due to inability to pay the taxes and salaries.
Compare your tax return if this man gets elected to your previous ones. Cripes, what part of the Bush tax cuts expiring doesn't alone compute to more $ coming out of your pocket?
Can anyone honestly justify why both the inheritance and death taxes should be double-taxed? For example, if your family/parents (etc.) paid 25% on those amounts and you get taxed an additional 25% on them, you've just paid 50% taxes! Welcome to the "rich" category, suckers!

its from the national review -
not worth reading, notorious right wing organization.
Well, you should review Matthew 7
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
maybe you should review the above posts?!

I appreciate your candid review of the speech....
and the lack of attack.
This is my take on it: The Bush doctrine is comprised of several tenets, not the first of which is the pre-emptive strike to avoid attack issue. He asked a broad question and she asked for clarification, which he refused to provide. So she gave a broad answer. As soon as he identified which part of the doctrine he was referring to, she gave the correct answer. It was obvious he wanted to trap her into saying something, in fact hammered her to make a mistake, which she refused to do. I thought she was very good.
As far as foreign policy neophyte...not any more than Bill Clinton was the first time he ran. That is why he surrounded himelf with people he considered to be foreign policy experts. That is what a President does. If John McCain dropped dead two weeks into the Presidency, she would surround herself with foreign policy experts...the same way every President before her has done. I do not see that as a valid argument.
Obama is as far from a foreign policy expert as he can be, and he knows it, that is why he selected Biden, and we get Obama first chair day 1. You can accept him day 1...I can accept her in the 2nd seat.
She is certainly more versed in energy policy than either of them, which is also extremely important to this country. They would both need advisors in that area.
No one person is well versed in every aspect. That is why there are cabinets and advisors. All Presidents have them and will continue to have them.
What she does bring to the table that none of the others do is experience running a government. She has done it at the local level and she has done it at the state level. That makes her more ready to step in the #1 seat than Obama. No one has to teach her to run a government.
That is why I am comfortable with her. I understand that you are not. I would suggest that if she needs more years before running for public office...so does Barack Obama.
during your extensive Bible review.....
And your extensive knowledge on how much of a sin homosexuality part is, did you miss the part on how judging others is also a sin, and how a SIN IS A SIN in the eyes of God, no sin is more pertinent than the other?
Marmann, I think you need to do a little history review....

Please review the Iraq Liberation Act and the speech given by clinton in 1988 explaining why he bomb
Operation Desert Fox. Bush, nor conservatives, were the first to call for regime change in Iraq. Clinton signed in a LAW calling for just that. I posted the act below. Both sides have called for regime change, only one side made it a law...that would be yours. Can we move on to another subject now?
