EXHUME HARRY TRUMAN!

Tony, one of me grans was a semi-mucky muck in the local Rep party (I come from a mixed background politically) so evidently when I was but a wee Hetty, I got to meet Ike. Yesh, I was probably in stroller with a little American flag perched on it and rudely slept through the encounter, but technically I met him.

What's sad is that our political system provides smart people like you and Twinlabs with these "lesser of the evils choices" that make you voluntarily stay home on certain Election Days.  When the elimination process results in "Who?  Him?  Her?  Them? Arrrgghhhh!" as choices and turns you off, our country suffers for it.

Happy coffee anyone?

;)

Liked Ike...

Exhume Harry Truman 2008 Committee

Twinlab you are right on about all three candidates tap dancing on immigration . The candidates do not talk about the major issues facing America..  Universal health care, New immigration laws , to stop the senseless war in Iraq and control the outsourcing of American jobs.   I also liked IKE .

Too young for Ike, here....but it is sad when there is no one who meets enough of your qualifications to vote for them.

Hank, I believe the media is strongly responsible for not allowing the candidates to focus on issues that matter to the American people. The media wants to focus on things that sell newspapers. 

What is even worse about the media?  The government and special interest groups control the media.  Who won'n t find hard nose news on FOX, CNN, ABC and NBC. All the news is filtered .

Bull, that is your right, of course.  If everyone who feels as you do does the same, however, we will end up with the Democrats in control of all three branches of government, and the result (one of many results) will be open borders.  Period.

It's worth thinking about.

MWL

I'm in a district that was gerrymandered in the early - mid 1990's.  It guarantees a black democratic congressman (Bobbie Scott) - he usually runs unopposed.  He will be in congress longer than Teddy Kennedy if he wants.

But Senator Warner is retiring & i might vote just to help Virginia NOT have 2 democratic senators.  But right now i am leaning toward staying home election day.     Bullwinkle

My condolences bull (RE: Scott as Representative).  We are in close proximity, apparently;  Thelma Drake is my representative.

The guy in our areaI really like, however, is Randy Forbes.  Have you heard him speak by any chance?  Pretty sharp IMO.  I'd like to see HIM get to the senate eventually.

MWL

This used to be the late Herb Bateman's district.  I really liked him.  That idiot from channel 10 (Andy Fox?) ran against Bateman & got a lot of votes, but lost.  I've very close to Langley AFB & Ft Monroe.  Langley was my last base before i retired.

My Representative can beat up your Representative:

She's a Blue Dog Democrat, however, who grasps the concept of working in bi-partisan coalitions.  She's up for releection (we have yet ANOTHER primary June 3) and probably will have no problem winning.

Mrs. C. should have her luck.

;)

Hetty 

P.S.  I don't follow O'Reilly; however, Mrs. C. and Mr. McC have now appeared on the program, that we know.  Has Mr. O appeared? Or scheduled or appearing?  Or scheduled and not appearing?  Clues? 

President Bush, John McCain, Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama all refuse to secure our borders or enforce our immigration laws.  They are all a disgrace.

This will have a two-fold effect:

1.  The United States will experience a horrific attack from our Islamic adversaries.

2.  The illusion of political correctness and multicultural diversity will be obliterated and will give way to brute force within the United States against innocent Moslems and other minority ethnic groups.

Thank you

Mr. Purrington

Hetty, " don't let the Buck stop here" Harry never got the accolades that he deserved.
