General Petraous has taken a postion on Afganhistan, and talking to the enemy that Barak Obama has spoken out about, leaving McCain to rethink his statements - or be on the wrong side of the Afganhistan war and the General, he adores who is running it.
John McCain, a war hero, a US Senator, has disgraced himself with the current low road that he and his unqualified running mate are taking - saying the Obama 'was palling around with terrorists' that he is an outsider, dangerous, not one of us'. McCain - Palin are trying to play the 'race card' and the 'muslim card' and are conducting a despicable, disgusting, denigrating campaign that is wrong and using lies to try and fool or mislead the American public.
With the US economy in a downward spiral, McCain - Palin are talking 'trash' and not how to reassure the American public that the economy will be fixed and not to panic sell their stocks - oh I remember - McCain said 'the economy is not my strong suit' and echoed President Bush, just before the stock market implosion that the 'fundementals of the American economy is strong'. His fellow Republicans said that McCain efforts to give imput into the bailout legislation - helped 'blow up' the discussions.
McCain needs help...Palin doesn't know enough to advise him to change course - she has only been involved in 'national politics' for six (6) weeks. McCain had only talked to Palin for 15 minutes before picking her for the second (2nd) most important job in the World - a heartbeat away from the Presidency. HOW irresponsible-HOW wrong.
The American people deserve better....

SARAH PALIN, DAN QUAYLE, SPIRO AGNEW REPUBLICAN MISTAKES, McCAIN ERROR - FIX IT..
Jamie Lynn Spears, a 16 year old pregnant teenager was a political rally point of the Republican right wingers - oh so concerned with 'family values' - now the John McCain's Republican choice for Vice President, the little known Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin's , 17 year old daughter is five (5) months preganant it is a 'non issue' according to 'Babes' Buchanan and Saul Anuzi (Michigan GOP Chairman)....
Its a 'private issue' and the children should not be subject to politics..But its OK if the Republicans can use children to further 'far right wing' agenda of Abstinence Only - 750,000 teenagers will become pregnant this year. And Palin, the 'hockey mom' the reformer with no real political experience is feverently - anti abortion and pro abstinence only - well apparently her daughter didn't get the message.
And we as Voters deserve to know if she (Palin) faked a pregnancy to cover up her daughters first baby - we deserve to know if she tried to get her brother-in-law fired as an Alaskan State Trooper for personal reasons.
Palin's daughter is 17 - her mother wants to be Vice President and we are supposed to turn a blind eye - to give the family privacy?
McCain made a bad choice for Vice President, if Palin is the best woman the Republicans can offer as VP - then they should have picked a male.
The Republicans can do better - they should admit it and find a 'reason' for Palin to withdraw and pick a qualified VP - and let her have her privacy. It is the Republican Party that is forcing Sarah Palin on the American Voter, not the Democrats.
Palin is NO role model for women, no heroic figure. She has family problems and should withdraw or others should make sure McCain finds another VP.
The Republicans don't need another Dan Quayle or Spiro Agnew and neither do the American voters.

OBAMA - McCAIN, DEMOCRATIC / REPUBLICAN CONVENTIONS - THANK YOU CNN - SHAME ON ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX NEWS
We - our Country - the USA is about to nominate a black man for President, an historic event.
We are about to nominate the oldest man ever to run for President.
There are important issues facing this Country - the Democratic Convention has started - or has it????
I don't think so: the Big Bang Theory, Deal or No Deal, High School Musical - Get In the Picture, Prison Break, or the don't miss - Gossip Girl are on - more important than the Democratic Convention?
No wonder young voters, have no interest in politics or voting - they are not exposed to the interesting events and commentary about the way Democrats and Republicans Conventions operate - the people, the speeches the analysis.
I remember staying up past midnite to see John F. Kennedy nominated for President, the youngest candidate ever, a Catholic, some said too inexperienced, and yet we learned about him and others through convention coverage - it was fascinating. I watched as Robert Kennedy went across this Country speaking and engaging people and I watched his funeral. I watched as Lyndon B. Johnson was nominated. I watched Richard M. Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and others were nominated for President and watched as the uniquely American political conventions played out day after day - listened to the speeches, watched the people, watched the drama the chaos and tragedy of the 1968 Convention all live - for several nights - but now these unique events which come only once every four (4) years is denigrated, dismissed and ignored by TV networks whose bottom line is $$$$$ and not the Public Interest.
We watched the Olmpics from China - Live - for 14 days and nights - BUT get only glimpses of the uniquely American political conventions after 10 pm....How Outrageous - How sad...
We try to export Democracy at the point of a gun, our President speaks about the importance of Democracy and a freely elected govenment - BUT - we can't stand to watch it on our TVs. The networks think or have been told - we are not interested - its not commercial viable -
We may be tired of the long long often boring and repitious tv news clips of our candidates. We are tired of the attack ads, the distortion of our candidates positions - But we should be able to see on all of our commercial tv networks - the uniquely American event - the Democratic and Republican Conventions.....Demand It..
We are Americans - Democracy is our hallmark - not be shunted aside by the Gossip Girl.
Those of you who missed Senator Ted Kennedy's speech live - missed television at its best (but only on CNN) as he spoke for the 'torch being passed' and how 'American soldiers lives should not be spent on a mistake - but for a mission worthy of their sacrifices'
