Obama Is NOT Perfect, Is John McCain???

ZephyrSun @ZephyrSun (7381) • United States 28 Aug 08

I hear all this talk that Obama is not able to speak without a teleprompter. I have seen Obama stumble and sometimes even fall. I am an Obama supporter and I have no problem admitting that he is not perfect, can John McCain...

wachit14 Whoever says that Obama is not an eloquent speaker has never really heard him speak. He is not only eloquent, but he is also powerful, heartfelt and very real. John McCain is also a great speaker, but I just don't agree with his policies. I do believe it is...

wachit14 I think it's a very delicate subject. Although in the work place, if you are the supervisor, then you are in charge, but being in charge also means striking a delicate balance between being authoratative and being sensitive to others. Most people who are in...

Big Grocer is Watching

kenzie45230 @kenzie45230 (3560) • United States 22 Aug 08

For years, I avoided any grocery store where you had to have a card to get good prices. I drove a mile down the road to shop with the grocery that prided itself on "good prices all the time, without a card." Currently, there's a...

wachit14 I do frequent the grocery store with the card and I think it's the same one you go to, the tip of being the 10 for $10 items. I go there though for a few reasons: 1) It's about a quarter mile from my house so I use up practically no gas to get there and...

Are You Supposed to Bring a Present to an Engagement Party?

Pigglies @Pigglies (9329) • United States 22 Aug 08

My cousin just got engaged so he's having a party. One of my friends told me these parties are just a scam to get twice the gifts out of you. At first, when he invited me to the party he said he didn't know the wedding date. I...

wachit14 Unfortunately, your friend is right. The engagement party is another way to get gifts from potential wedding guests and you really should get an engagement gift. However, your cousin will cement relationships by doing this. Because they are getting married in...

wachit14 I think what your daughter is feeling is very common amongst girls, especially at that age. Often, when girls go through puberty, they may have uncomfortable feelings about their body changing and that's usually when they begin to look at other girls who they...

How the hell is Obama even a contender.

totalcomments_com @totalcomments_com (167) • United States 22 Aug 08

I can't figure it out, Obama has less than a one year experience as a JR. Senator. He is a horrible public speaker, unless it is written down for him, He is known for disliking America, just as his wife does, he is pro-abortion,...

wachit14 People used to mistake my son for a girl and my daughter for a boy. I got over it really fast because I think some people just can't tell a boy from a girl when they look at a baby, even if the kids are clearly dressed in pink or blue. They stay babies for...

Will OBAMA do for you as he has done for his BROTHER?

redyellowblackdog @redyellowblackdog (10629) • United States 20 Aug 08

Yes, it is true. Obama thinks the USA is an ungenerous nation. Obama thinks we should do more. Obama is willing to use other's money to help the poor of the world. How about your own money Obama? To help your brother? Read the...
