Agreed - Apparently change means, picking a middle aged white guy who will tow the party line or being an old white dude who needs a woman around to do his bidding. I see no real change from anyone here. Hillary got shut out by her traitorous party and racist rival. McCain is just another Bush, but maybe with 1/2 a brain (if only he had enough guts to use it).

Sweetie, I loved your post. Although, I was born in American, I too, made my own way in this this country. My parents had a lot of children - but very little money. My father was a natural genius, but he was greatly lacking in everyday common sense. I inherited his genius and my mother's common sense, so I'm a very smart, pragmatic person. I see a "problem" and I want to "fix" it. "Thinking" is recreational and very enjoyable for me. My making money years are pretty much over, but for a quarter of a century, my ex-husband and I took a business from zero to millions of dollars by our own hard work and intuition. There were also some lucky breaks for us. We also didn't have help from anyone else. No investors or government agencies contributed to our success. We did it all on our own. I was offered scholarships to highly accredited colleges because of my outstanding academic records - but I turned them down because I didn't see the point of going to college when I wanted to learn something - I just went out and found the information I needed, on my own.
I wish this country was filled with people like you. The kind of people who have an actual plan to get what they want out of life. Whatever a person wants to do, learn what you have to do to accomplish your goals, then "do it".
Getting back to TMZ's post. Yeah, the guy didn't realize that he said "a white man from Kansas". He meant to say a white WOman from Kansas. Just a dumb mistake.

78. Way to be on top of things TMZ. Only 7 days behind real news sources. That's not bad. Have you guys seen this video called "Dramatic Chipmunk?" It's hilarious.

79. LOL that clip was hilarious!!!!
By the way, can people stop saying that our government let the poor stay poor. It's the ignorant that STAY ignorant. Yes, there is definitley room for change and improvement but many of us posting on this blog came from "poor" backgrounds. It was our (and our parents) hard work that got some of us the successes we have accomplished. As a young black woman who owns a home,owns a car, has no children, and has earned 3 degrees, I can say that the government provided several of the opportunities for me almost free of charge. These opportunities where offered to EVERYONE black, white, blue , and purple. The choice was put in front of me and I took it. These same choices were given to my other unfortunate friends that I grew up with. They took different paths and were persuaded but negative outside influences. That was their choice. The government did not make them sell drugs, have babies, and/or drop out of school. They allowed themselves to get into those situations. So as a black woman living in America, I tell my fellow black americans to get off their a**es and educate themselves. Stop blaming others for your misfortunes. It's embarassing!!!

80. Go McCain and Palin! This is the most exciting Republican ticket.
Ask Obama if he vetted Joe Biden yet - if so, why is he and the party hiding the criminal activity of Joe Biden's son, Hunter! sleazy - add that to the Rezko sleazy actions and Rev Wright! Obama is a recipe for disaster!

81. Joe Biden is a hideous VP choice for Obama - between his son Hunter Biden's criminal background and Obama's ties to sleazy Rezko and Rev Wright - VOTE MCCAIN PALIN!

82. Wow 66. You're a teacher and your grammar and sentence structure is that horrible? Please don't teach my children. I would say that you shouldn't have any contact with any child's education, but well - you're exactly what the Democrats want teaching kids. You'll make sure they never get 'too smart' and will always be easy for the Government to keep hold of.
#53 Just because a child has Downs doesn't mean that it is any less capable of love or life. To end a pregnancy just because the parent is too selfish and uncaring to want to nurture their disabled child is just horrific.
Obama has no right to sit and accuse Palin of having no experience. Particularly since he's spent 3 years as a Senator. During his time as Senator, he's only spent 143 days of that time in the senate. The rest of the time he's been campaigning for President. Any idiot can get up and speak - I mean my god. Even Hitler was an eloquent speaker, and look what he managed to get people to agree to. :P

83. According to The Book of Revelations the anti-Christ is:
The anti-Christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal....the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything. Is it OBAMA??

84. People need to stop expecting the Government to pave the way to life for them. They need to do for themselves.
The only Change Obama is offering is more Government dependence, keep the masses like cattle.

85. Whatever party you are with make sure you really KNOW what changes will be made.
Just a few words to ponder. If you are a small business owner - Obama wants to raise your taxes on your business up to 56%. There goes alot of growth for you, and the inability to have as many employees or offer better benefits for them.
Those who are hearing how the middle class won't have their taxes increased by Obama. That's good and fine.. but what do you think is going to happen when Obama taxes all the large businesses more? They will need to raise their prices to the public, which you will then feel in a large way.

86. Hey Bobby and Tess - I'm undecided on the election but when you make comments like that your not helping the republican party. No one can take you seriously cause you sound so incredibly ignorant. Go read a book! Educate yourself and get the facts straight before you make assanine comments.

88. 43. BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA
What kind of name is that?
Posted at 11:36PM on Sep 2nd 2008 by Tess
What KIND OF NAME is that? The name of the person who should be elected our next president. An individual who wants to GET US OUT OF IRAQ, IMPROVE THE ECONOMY, IMPROVE HEALTH CARE, KEEP SOCIAL SECURITY FROM BEING PRIVITIZED and will be able to accomplish this once we get the A$$hole Republicans out of the Senate so we can get some bills passed.
WHY IS TMZ BRINGING THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION TO THIS SITE??? why not keep it for the kids and celebrety trash that you do so well.

89. Good grief. Terry Moran made a mistake, a fairly humorous one at that, and all of a sudden, Barack Obama is an Arab, a bastard child, heck, you all probably think he is the anti-Christ. Barack Obama is a man, a good, intelligent American, who will make a wonderful president. Instead of denegrating Democrats, try sitting down with a few, having a calm discussion, and learning something. Both parties have had candidates who were unfaithful, both parties have known scandal and shame. No one is perfect. As the anniverary of 9/11 approaches, perhaps we could stop all the bitterness, the lying and hate mongering, and for one shining moment, remember the people who lost their lives on the horrible day. Look at your loved ones, hug them tightly. Maybe make a donation to your local veteran's hospital, or volunteer your time Just give all this hate a rest, and try to be one country, at least for one day. In the words of The Beatles-"Give peace a chance".
Now before anyone responds with rhetoric, or tries to insult me, read the part about 9/11 again. Ok. Take a deep breath, close your eyes, and think back to where you were when you first heard the news. Dig down and find that emotional response, that feeling of we must be united-ALL of us-to deal with the sorrow, to support our neighbors, to send unconditional love to the victims and the families. And, on this anniversary, bring all that love back. Forget the Palin scandal, or the color of Obama's skin. In the grand scheme, all that matters is America's people's ability to join together and remember. We can rise above the hate and be brothers and sisters. At least, I pray we can.

90. 85.. According to The Book of Revelations the anti-Christ is:
The anti-Christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal....the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything. Is it OBAMA??
So...................You found Obama's name in the Bible? That should be headline news. Why not a little less church and a little more reading of thei ssues.
