This presidential candidate had the money to make personal “questionable” investments while not paying off his outstanding parking tickets from last 17 years. Although he denied it, his campaign was the one who hired a guy to create a video against his opponent. This is unacceptable and disgusting for a public official like him. Consequently, he should be shamed of himself. He is a dishonest man and tries to fool the American people. Do you think this inexperienced Senator has the credibility and integrity to be a president after all his lies? America please wake up!!!

If you agree with me, you are a great citizen. If not, you are the one of those people who does not care about the future of this great country.

I agree. Obama is more prudent on Iraq. A sudden withdrawal by next week is a bad idea, but there needs to be a time table. However, the time table must allow for flexibility as the situation changes on the ground. The present bill allows for this, even though the amount of pork on the bill is disgraceful. Now, if Bush rejects the bill, Obama supports sending a 3 to 4 month spending package to the president (no need giving the Republicans reason to say "Dems hate America.") When the funds are used the President comes back to Congress for funding- this creates an avenue for oversight and perhaps more Republicans will be frusrated with Bush's performance and side with a change in Iraq. Obama is on to something!

uhhh whaaatt! If I don't agree with Greg Limes then I don't care about my country ( even though I served proudly and with distinction in the military and was honorably discharged). This idea of being scared of being branded something is so ridiculous and in itself unAmerican. Why should Dems or anyone else be afriad to say leave now. Why should our troops sit around and be shot at ( including my brother in law who is in Baghdad as we speak) to WAIT and see if something works. Excuse me, it's been 5 years not 5 months of this Presidents various Strategies. you'll have to pardon me if I feel I don't have time to wait.
