" Arguably the last Intellectual Liberal in congress said it best when commenting about his fellow liberals…’they haven’t the ability to distinguish between our countries enemies and our friends’…he was also ostracized when in the mid 1960s he correctly foresaw and publicly predicted the War on Poverty would ’condemn generations of welfare recipients to government dependence’…. further commenting… ‘The War on poverty would destroy the inner city black family’…‘and ultimately bankrupt our country.’ Today we spend 2 trillion of the our 3 trillion federal budget on social welfare, and Obama explicitly states he will spend an additional 1 trillion expanding programs that have caused more harm than good to both recipients and our country….this is the direct consequence of electing politicians who lack management experience and private sector job skills, as opposed to those who have demonstrated management abilities.

The closest current house member that might stretch to a semi-intellectual, Joe Lieberman, endorsed McCain….considering Obama meets all the lack of skills necessary to continue causing more harm than good…..perhaps the Lieberman endorsement might make a better more sense.

McCain/Palin "

" Palin an extremist? That's funny. By that definition, millions of Midlle Americans are now extremists. But then, lefties don't recognize anything in the middle of the country.

On the other hand, we have Obama, who is the most liberal senator after only a few weeks in the Senate - that makes Obama the real extremist and underlines the fact that he is completely unqualified for the office of the president. "

" glenroy, for future reference, Lieberman is in the senate not the house....and now that Powell has endorsed Obama, what does that say.. "

" It only says that Powell makes up his own mind, all the more reason to hope he will step up to become a candidate. I don't find cross-party endorsements unusual (there's always some in every election) or a bad thing. Unlike lefties, I don't think that we should try to stifle those who don't agree with us. "
