Default Re: Presidential Town Hall Debate

I personally think that both candidates sounded good. The problem is that nothing ever changes. We always hear all the good things that they plan on doing but nothing ever gets done. What they need to do is say F it and come together to fix the economy issue before it’s too late! I know I’m tired of paying so much for high gas prices and I’m tired of paying high medical costs and sick and tired of the rich getting richer while I sit back and suffer. We gave those assholes at the banks all that money to get their asses out of trouble and AIG goes on a goddamn spa retreat with the money. I call shenanigans on all of it. Who ever we put into office is so far out of touch with the “normal” middle class American its sick.

Change? More like same shit, different suit.

I enjoyed hearing Obama state that he is more proactive about getting the eff outta Iraq and not spending so much money on that wasted effort.

I like how McCain wants to limit our dependency on foreign oil by resorting to offshore drilling. And I like his stance on nuclear energy. Apparently offshore drilling was a 'big' McCain flip-flop. I don't necessarily agree with drilling offshore, but America is full of a bunch of pussies. I think the government needs to just put into effect a 5 dollars/gallon gas tax and let the problem sort itself out. If you REALLY want alternate fuels, you make gas unavailable for your average Joe American.

I don't know much about finance and the economy. Obama's tax plan sounds great, the one that will be good to 95% of the nation's people making less that 250,000. But what's the catch? There's gotta be a catch. And, historically, our country has done the best with a Republican president and a Democratic congress. I'm skeptical either candidate will reform the health care system, it's a huge problem and I can't see them being able to deal with expenditures in the Middle East and a health care reform.

I thought McCain did a pretty good job in this debate, certainly better than the first time. And Obama has no clue how to deal with Russia. But I guess that is why he picked Biden.

Ps, screw politics.
