- not finding too many republican replies to this article; their all still replying to the article on abortion and gay rights; preying upon the weak where it is not considered vogue.

- the futures market is ripping us off. it doesn't make sense that we win the war and oil prices go up and stay up. one of the major points of fighting wars is to secure resources for domestic consuption. i could understand prices staying high if we lost the war; but we didn't.

- we have to be careful about using the word recession aas it is dependent upon two factors; declining gnp and rising inflation. our government publishes these statisitcs and as everyone familiar with global warming information published by our government; it simply does not exist.

- it is sad that mccain has to follow in the foot steps of his republican predecessor. if he or another repliblican had won in 2000, there might not be so many new liberals who no longer support the republican party at the national level. he has some good ideas and plans for the country.

- one might interpret obama turning down debates with the republican candidate because he has the advantage. kind of like champion rated boxer's not wanting to fight the best possible opponent because it could jepardize their standing.
