We have had many presidents that were not in the services...this does not qualify him for the job....but is thanked and respected for his service YEARS ago nonetheless.
Palin mentioned that McCain knows how to win the war because he was in a war....there are other people just like him...have gone through similar circumstances....this does not mean they know what the heck to do with the mess we have in Iraq and Afganistan...honestly not one person can do it alone...
As for Obama thinking he is the Savior....has he actually said that...and is there a place where Chelsea, Cologal or anyone else has actually said that? I don't know these ladies from anywhere other than here on TOTV...and I can not imagine either one saying that Obama is their Savior. Just can't see it happening. They may agree with his political stance and want him to be president....or just like him much more than they like McCain...but Savior??? that is a strong word....
Just my thoughts bucco....not arguing with you or just out here backing up my fellow democrats....if you had said this about republicans I would say the same thing....
Thanks for listening.

Here is an exact quote from Sen Obama....the quote is in the below article..
The 5:20 TBA turned out to be his adoration session with lawmakers in the Cannon Caucus Room, where even committee chairmen arrived early, as if for the State of the Union. Capitol Police cleared the halls -- just as they do for the actual president. The Secret Service hustled him in through a side door -- just as they do for the actual president.
Inside, according to a witness, he told the House members, "This is the moment . . . that the world is waiting for," adding: "I have become a symbol of the possibility of America returning to our best traditions."
Emphasis added, of course. You might think this true, you might even think it a good thing. But no sensible person should ever say something like this about themselves. "

That just for a quick start..to the other parts of your post...Sen McCain's flying record was the subject of a few posts making fun of his ability to fly....landing on that carrier was easy I suppose....today AND yesterday his age as relates to his "mood" was brought up.
Most, maybe all, who post in opposition to Sen Obama do so based on his idealogy. I dont think I have heard one word about him personally OR his wife and family.
HOWEVER...those who oppose Sen McCain have gone into his military history, his wife and how she became such, how many houses he has (Oh and financially we should compare charitable contributions of each candidate esp 2006)...Gov Palin...well, we have done everything but bring up her junior high school teachers (which they will soon)...now she is being called a racist, which was the tune with Sen Clinton also.
I am not going to vote for a candidate with his background, esp when he has inspired such....I dont even know the word...did you see the young kids marching around and chanting his name ? I dont know what the word is but I do feel like I am living a class b movie at times !
Thanks for listening to me.....I got more to say FOR SURE but sure youare tired of it by now !
