What I would say is that the news media should do a penetrating expose and take a look. I wish they would. I wish the American media would take a great look at the views of the people in Congress and find out, are they pro-America or Anti-America? I think the American people would love to see an expose like that.

she might actually be more retarded than Palin. Well not more retarded, but more dangerous.
This is one of the most outrageous videos I have seen in the election threads so far.
And she calls those people "radical leftists"? She doesn't even understand what that means :<

Thank you for the credit


About the US election I wanted to ask something.
When you have two major parties like the Democrats and Republicans it makes sense that in both parties you will find intelligent, able people that explain their Party's ideology.
Now, currently looking at Mccain and Palin that is obviously not the case for the Republican party.

Can anyone point me to the logical Republicans? Those that speak clearly and make sense. That actually explain their ideas in a good way without letting word selection and grammer become the most important thing?

This is not a rethoric question I just want to read or hear these people.
I honestly don't mean it as an attack on the Rep. party ideology.

Both McCain and especially Palin (not that she's intelligent anyways) are being pushed around by the same neo-cons that helped win Bush the past two elections. McCain has never been a knight in shining armor, but he was a pretty good senator for at least a decade and in his 2000 he did run an ethical, fair campaign. From what I've read, Karl Rove is the person who convinced him to pick Palin (instead of Lieberman) and I'm sure McCain has been pushed around on a few more decisions.

There's no one who can speak like Biden or Obama, but there's some very strong republican senators especially on the foreign relations committee, financial services committee (yes, even Ron Paul) and the ethics boards.

Newt Gingrich.

Even John Kerry praised him and said that if he and Newt could sit down and make policy, they could fix things in America.

He is also a fiscal conservative....rare to find in the era of Bush.

Gingrich is the reason Clinton's numbers look like that. He won't get it from the public, but Gingrich's congress deserves some credit for the way things went under Clinton. Clinton didn't balance the budget, they did.

Well, that's basically why the Republican party had anyway no chance to win theses elections: they don't come with something new. Obama had really an easy task during his three debate with McFail, which was to point out that the policy his opponent advertise is just plainly the same than the one which has driven this country to the catastrophic state in which it is now. So well, McCain seems stupid because his program is obsolete and his discourse is a vacuum. Just bad luck for him that everything collapse before the Republican Party can operate its mutation into a more adapted ideology.

So well, to be quick: less taxes for companies and richest americans "in order to favour buisness", agressive international policy, ultra-conservative interior policy etc... etc...

I think McCain is the last american leader of the Reagan-Tatcher era, which, imo, is over.

Now I guess it's just time to get rid of Berlusconi, Sarkozy, Cameron (which is not elected yet) etc... etc...
