I am well aware both candidates are of the Christian faith. But the concept of a Islamic candidate is as hypothetical as this statement you just made.

McCain claims Hamas and other terrorist groups support Obama, so why would we be attacked if he is elected?

Israel's PM met with President Bush today in Washington D.C. They have a lot to talk about. What is wrong with Obama meeting with the PM of Israel?

I thought this war was started when the first President Bush didn't oust Saddam Hussein...but it's all perspective, right?

See, and this is exactly why I'm against McCain getting in office.

why? becuase if you keep your enemy on the run, they cant plan any attacks. and if there is no plan to follow, then you just have to sit it out until the right time to blast them to peices. get what im saying?

ah.okay i see what your asking. he is percieved to be like this. i was trying to bring that issue out. well, if you would rather call it an issue....and its not hypethetical. if a person who is islamic or practices it. and is a legal born american, over the age limit. then yeha ya never know, it could happen. not saying it will, im just saying it could. its not impossible.

If you keep your enemy on the run they get more angry.
Then you, the corrupted, get blast to pieces.
Instead of those innocent women and children that your government killed to fill their disgusting power hungry stomachs.

America is not the almighty powerful.
Or the great safe.
If we continue with these sort of methods it'll defiantly come back to us.

Maybe Obama's attempts to make peace will fail but we don't have much to lose.

I feel the same way. Bush does seem like a very nice guy...just messed up on so many levels while in office. ><;

.

i partcailly disagree with your first statement.have you ever tryed planning a party without your extremely strict parents knowing? [[[i know this is a bad example, but bear with me please]]]if you keep your parents occupied with something different, then you can get the job done. in our sense, if they want to live, then they run. they dont, they all get blasted.

Thanks for the response to that. I was going to say something similar. Trying to make peace, imo, should always be a priority or try to find alternate ways of resolving conflict. IMO, the war in Iraq has become incredibly pointless...especially since we should've never been there in the first place.

And that's okay?
It's okay to blast people to " keep them in line"
That's just sick to think.


I don't just care about my country I care about the world.
