This video is just 7 minutes of pure joy. When is the last time you seen this many smiles on the faces our brave American soldiers? I truly believe that Barack Obama can be a successful "Commander In Chief". The first step is...

jormins Check my link below for more info but I'm shocked McCain has tried to make this an issue as well as I am shocked by McCain's latest ads which make me ashamed I thought McCain was a decent candidate in the past. Considering the overbearing numbers of...

Imagine you woke up this morning and your parents had moved into your home. Things started out just like any other day but you then begin to notice that things have changed. As you head to the kitchen for breakfast you notice...

jormins I do agree both sides are to blame but when I look at what McCain is thinking about Iraq and even possibly Iran, and I look at the Republicans backing big oil today, its easy for me, an independent, to side with the Dem's this election cycle even though I...

I just read that Obama criticized McCain's foreign policy as being naive and irresponsible. This guy has to be totally off his rocker calling McCain naive to foreign policy when, to my knowledge, Obama has never once dealt with...

jormins I think there's 4,000+ U.S. Soldiers who might disagree with you about that not to mention about 3 in 4 Americans who will be voting this year. I don't feel us taking out Saddam makes us safer over here. I'd feel much safer if Bin Laden had been captured...

I've heard so many times how nobody should ever go to a foreign country and speak out against the U.S.A. The Dixie Chicks were crucified for it as have many others. I guess that same standard doesn't apply to the President...

jormins I know Clinton had one good shot to take Bin Laden out with a missile and he whiffed big time worrying about collateral damage. He does shoulder a lot of blame for that. However Rice also deserves a lot of blame, more than Clinton in my book because intel was...

jormins I never said Bush is the only one to blame for everything but he is the President and holds the largest burden of blame. The majority Democratic Congress has done a terrible job as well but its hard to blame them for Iraq. That was pretty much all Bush. The...

jormins Just to add as your post got me interested on Iran and their connection to terror. You are right they do support Hamas and Hezbollah and they do supply weapons to the terrorists we are fighting in Iraq. They are however not terrorists. Even Bush's Defense...

jormins I'd rather enter into negotiations with Iran and get them to stop their nuclear ambitions rather than needlessly invade if we don't have to. Have we not learned anything from the last 5+ years in Iraq? All we have really accomplished is putting in place a...

jormins Rodney, 5.4 Trillion was a book manipulation? I'd love to see any credible source refuting or giving some evidence of that. (That means a real source not a Right Wing spamming sites). If I remember right Bush issued money back to us in a rebate that could...

jormins To the open mind its pretty obvious the Republicans use scare tactics (terrorists, WMD's). While global warming might seem like a scare tactic to you, I think bombs and chemical weapons, and nuclear weapons scare more people than a few degrees and some melting...

jormins Iran is a sovereign nation not terrorists. Al Qaeda is a terrorist organization. Hamas is a terrorist organization. Iran is a country. As much as I'm not a fan of Slick Willy, Bush's 8 years have really made Willy's 8 look good in hindsight. That 5.4...

jormins Comparing Nazi's and appeasement to Obama's stance on talking to Iran which is the same as Bush's Defense Secretary Gates and Colin Powell is Obama's soft spot? Perhaps you'd prefer to invade Iran instead of actually talking to them, but I think rational minds...

jormins Well you are definitely a fool Rodney as it is a fact AL QAEDA HAD NO PRESENCE IN IRAQ UNTIL WE INVADED. Bin Laden is not in Iraq either, but there is a lot of oil in Iraq, go figure. As much as I'm not a fan of Bill Clinton I do like his analogy of Iraq....

If we truly want lower gas prices, ALL that needs to be done is to allow drilling in the US. Flood the market with crude. That would lower prices... and it would be simple to do.

jormins Depending why our government has capped those areas for drilling (I'd assume with Bush being an oil man that he would have removed those caps) it sounds like a good idea. While it won't bring down demand if it would help with short term pricing until we get...

jormins I do agree we need to look out for our own country first but this bill really has nothing that will hurt our economy and looks to cost us one penny a person. If I had the power right now I'd release some of our oil from our strategic oil reserve. That would...
