" All I can say is WOW. There are so many things to comment about in these ramblings. I will try to hit all the points.
1. If you are voting your religion you are a fool. Religion is the true meaning of socialism and Marxism. Listen to what you have said. "a christian(with any morals)cannot vote for Obama. " You say this based on his views to keep abortion legal. He wants to keep the choice legal. If you want your government to tell you what you can and cannot do with your body then you are the socialist, communist, Marxist names you like to throw around. All this talk of let the people decide not the government, it changes when you talk of abortion or tax breaks for big companies. Anyway,
2. The wars. I would not even begin to comment or correct a brave soldier who has been in either place. For anyone on here to do so shows your complete loss of patriotism. You should be ashamed. If he is right or wrong is no matter. Until you go there, shut up and leave him alone. If you have been there and differ from his opinion, then go for it. But use your own experience, not what you were fed from fox news or the wheels of BushCo.
I would go on but my head hurts from all the ignorance posted here. I just hope Obama can bring everyone together since McCain is all about division. "

If we are so concerned about human rights and that is now the argument, then why not sudan, or darfur, or even Nigera? What about China? No, this war in Iraq is senseless and a loss of life.

" Here is a stance on Palin.
Check her record, really check it. McCain says he is againts earmarks, well he better reel in his running mate.
But when it comes to earmarks, Palin is no purist like McCain.
While she was mayor of the small town of Wasilla, Alaska, Palin hired a lobbyist to seek federal money for special projects. Wasilla obtained 14 earmarks, totaling $27 million, between 2000-2003, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan watchdog group that monitors federal spending.
As governor, Palin has asked for 31 earmarks worth $197 million for the 2009 fiscal year. State budget documents show that the state requested 52 earmarks worth $256 million for the 2008 budget year.
Several news organizations, including The Associated Press, have used a figure of $550 million in state earmark requests for the 2008 fiscal year. That information has been based on an op-ed piece written in March in the Juneau Empire by John Katz, the director of state-federal relations and special counsel to Palin.
The article was entitled: "Palin not abandoning earmarks altogether." "

The mayor of a town the size of Morehead, WOW!. She beat a governor who no one liked. A polar bear of that moose she eats could have won and then to say she can reform? Tell me what she has reformed? She isn't even informed? She wants to bomb Pakistan? Come on? Biden is going to chew her up and I wish Obama had really hit harder with McCain. Jeez, the war started a while back not only a year ago. The surge shouldn't have even been an issue to discuss, if Bush on his personnel crusade to take over the Iraq oil fields as his family did to protect their off shore investments back in the 90's when Daddy was king.
Also, if Cheney and Rice and others are so honest, why does Haliburton need to move out of the US. We need jobs, Give the 700 billion to all the home owners withthose banks not to Condie and Georgie crooked friends. Vote McCain if you want to see the country go downt he toilet. Depression here we come, what fun.

It is a breath of spring air that both men and women in Maysville and the surrounding areas draw their own conclusions and opinions, never are led by popular vote, and stand firm to the philosphy that freedom of democracy and the right to vote is really what counts. Whatever your stand is politically, I applaud you for taking a stand, not being persuaded by past loyalties to any party and deciding on what is best for the country, the area, and the commonwealth as well as for yourself. THAT is why Kentucky is the commonwealth that it is - without reverance to gender, ethicnicity, or trendy. That is why both men and women in Kentucky are considered leaders - not followers! "
