In 2008 I voted for Barack Obama, the first time I ever voted for a Democrat, because the Republican Party was drifting toward a dangerous path that put extreme party ideology above national interest.
By nominating John McCain? What a freaking drama queen.
That was my first thought. Is he serious?

Its weird. The press and the left talk non stop about the radical right take over of the Republican party and yet the last two noms are McCain and Mitt.

I endorse President Obama for reelection in 2012.
He should have added "as I did by voting for him in 2008" at the end of that sentence, to put it into perspective.

He's practicing his right as an American. At least he didn't use the "cuz he gave me a phone" line.

Obama continues war creates more disabled veterans, requires more spending by VA, putting aside the narrowness of Presler's agenda, one could make the same argument for food stamps, unemployment claims, cell phones distributed, etc, and the fact the Congress appropriated the funding it is circular logic on the part of Pressler.

What really set me off was Romney's reference to 47% of Americans to be written off - including any veteran collecting disability like myself, as a post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) veteran.
Yes, because that's exactly what Romney said.

I find it offensive that Romney, Congressman Paul Ryan and their Republican Party are politicizing the death of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other brave Americans who lost their lives in Libya.
Oh right, just ignore it. Isn't that what led to the deaths? Ignoring things?
This guy is way misguided.

I'll give you this one.
Slashing taxes and reducing spending have always been the cornerstones of the left wing.
Decentralization too.

McCain wasn't the only one on that ticket in case you forgot.
