My reasoning is this: I don't support the Iraq war. McCain does. I don't support his stance on military spending and cuts in domestic spending. Most of all, I have a lot of trouble supporting a man who betrayed his country in the Viet Nam war. McCain collaborated with his North Vietnamese captors in return for preferential treatment. His fellow POWs have confirmed this.

So what if the top 1% pay 40% of all Federal Income taxes?



So what if the top 25% pay 87% of all Federal Income taxes?



To Obama and his supporters it makes no difference these people are paying MORE in taxes after the Bush tax cuts. No, it is all about &quot;fairness&quot;

Saddleback: The Contrast [Rich Lowry]





A fascinating night that gave us a peek at the fundamental contrast between these candidates. They both were very good, but in entirely different ways. Obama was relaxed, reflective, polished, and conversational—truer to the spirit of the event. McCain was energetic and forceful,  ...</description>

August 14, 2008 11:11 AM ET | James Pethokoukis | Permanent Link

Dangerous Times In Georgia Demand Serious Leadership 

by Fred Thompson 





My mind goes back to August 2002 in Tbilisi, as I visited Georgia with John McCain.

			<description>The plot thickens in the Edwards saga. Now crimes may have been committed





Edwards' associate explains payment to ex-mistress



WASHINGTON (AP) -- John Edwards' political action committee paid his mistress $14,000 after she stopped working for it to obtain 100 hours of unused videotape she had shot for his unsuccessful presidential campaign, an associate told The Associated Press on Thursday.



The woman, Rielle Hunter, already had been paid $100,000 for the programs.
