Obama's ridiculous whining

It is amazing that the sky hasn't fallen and the Dems blamed the Republicans. Not only was the Dem convention "same old same old", it was so in spite of the Dems' own "change" mantra. And, the Clintons should go quietly now. Being a team player is one thing, but Hillary's recent level of chatter in support of an inferior opponent who embraced questionable tactics has only pushed those Dems that were on the fence further away from the party. Bill looked the same as when he told us he had not had sex with ML. Please go quietly.

whining/Obama

Mr. Finley: I point out that the demonstraters at the Repiblican Convention set out with the intent of creating violences and while no doubt he Democrats would disavow that they were in anyway connected with these demonstraters it should be remembered that what demostratation happened at the Democratic Convention did not involve such violene. It appears that some in the democratic party need to learn how to be civil and to protest in a legal manner and not set out to break shop windows, wich cost a shopkeeper money to replace and not to burn cars of innocents. It is disapointing that the major medias do not make an issue of this abuse of the laws.

Nasty & Dirty?

Nolan Finley in his commentary, expresses the epitome of republican arrogance by choosing to characterize Sen. Obama's objections to the blatant lies voiced by the new Vice Presidential nominee as "whinning." To ignore the complete misinformation is typical of the bias in which Mr. Finley has attacked Senator Obama and general negative approach he has for any perspective that does not reflect his ultra-conservative views. John McCain has given his campaign over to the Karl Rove (Pillage & Rape) brigade, with no since of honor or regard for civility and yet we are to believe that he is an honorable man? I think that he and Nolan Finley exemplify all that is wrong in politics today, no sense of decency.
