Good, I am glad.

Hoping that someday, somehow, somebody on here will discuss issues and backgrounds instead of National Enquirer things. Getting tired of the "shame, shame, shame" quotes instead of issue discussion.

Is McCains age an issue ?
Are Obama's associates and mentors an issue ?
Tax breaks or Tax increases ?
Do we need a military presence in the middle east ?
Who should be paying for medical care in this country ?
and so on

I dont expect it to happen...looking for another "shame, shame, shame" comment in lieu !
Ok I will bite:

Is McCains age an issue ? Yes and also his record of voting against women's issues
Are Obama's associates and mentors an issue ?I assume you mean Ayers who Obama met as a college professor. That was 40 years ago and Ayers isn't on the ticket or a part of the campaign. So I am not sure
Tax breaks or Tax increases ?The middle class needs a break but take a look a McCains definition of rich. 5 million give me a break.
Do we need a military presence in the middle east ?Not when my nephews are in the military, one has been wounded and been in Iraq 4 times. But the bigger issue is the drain on our economy...can we keep this up? NO I remember being told the oil revenues would pay for the war but the last time I checked I was still paying for it. We are in a huge debt and they have a huge surplus.
Who should be paying for medical care in this country This one is tougher..the HMO were supposed to bring costs down by all they have done is make profits bigger. Why should a CEO of an Health Insurance company make 20 million a year? The system is broken...flat out. I have healthcare until I retire if I don't get layed off which is a quarter exercise at my company.

Just my thoughts
