"Can anyone tell me what legislation she has passed or what crisis she has worked on or what interaction Gov. Palin has had at all regarding Russia?"

Probably about as much as Obama.

Plus, she has been in charge of a state with a $6 billion budget. What has either…

”Obama looks and sounds presidential"

Well, that decides it then. LOOKING and SOUNDING persidential is obviously far more important than actually being ready for the job...

Seriously, Obama is in panic mode now. He went establishment with his VP pick in an attempt to shore up his total lack of…

Wow, brilliant. Palin's resume is clearly superior to Obama's, so the Dems can't attack her on that front. She is a hunter, fisher, lifelong NRA member, working mother of 5, a poster child for red-meat America.

Obama's pick of Biden now looks pretty crass and pandering. A career Washington insider…

Damax;

I am sure that there are people whowill never vote for Obama due to his race. However, there are also others who will vote FOR him due to his race. Don't you think that will balance out?

Depends on your definition of "far left". But definitely on the far left of the US Senate. National Journal rated Obama as the most liberal of all senators, based on his voting record. I believe he also gets a 100% rating from the ACLU.

If I were a terrorist hiding in the Hindu Kush, I would be praying for an Obama/Biden victory. That should be enough for most people to see that voting McCain is the only sensible choice. He is a good man in a storm.

Obama is an empty suit in the…

Hillary is a good soldier, she will make the proper noises and dutifully endorse Obama. I dont think her heart is in it, though. She just wants the Democratic Party to help her pay off her campaign debts.

As for those who fail to support Obama doing so merely because…

Joice; with respect, the father obviously DOES exist. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a child, would there? Raising a child alone is hard, trying to do it in a foreign country makes it even harder.

Quinirus; that is a good idea, but you have to consider that OUTside the home, one…

I think language may be the least of the boy's worries. Where the hell is his father?!?

Growing up with a single mother, probably being left alone for far too long, getting no support for his studies, these are all crucial. IMHO, they should go back to Brazil if at…

I think the huge missing piece, the one that everyone misses, is the language used by the parents when speaking to each other, in front of the kids. It is the third leg of the triangle in terms of family communication- kid to parent, parent to kid, parent to parent.…
