John is far right......
NOW I SEE WHY SOMETIMES PEOPLE DON'T GET TO KNOW THEIR NEIGHBORS. I NEVER WOULD HAVE IMAGINED THAT THEIR IS SO MUCH HATE IN AMERICA STILL IN THE 21 CENTURY. MAYBE SOME OF THESE BIBLE VERSES MAY HELP. 1 John 4:19-20 1 John 3:10 Proverbs 10:12 1 Corinthians 13:4-13
This report makes me ashamed to live right outside Fayetteville. It's a great Military town, don't get me wrong, but where the military is getting it wrong this time is assuming every soldier is a McCain supporter. I know a TON of people that live here that won't vote for Obama just because he is Black. It's a crying shame this country won't move forward from that kind of attitude. It's 2008 for God's sake. Not, 1958. My soldier and I are voting for change and that's our right and what he's fighting for.
People need to get off the whole abortion issue. What a woman does with her own body is her choice. You don't have to agree with it but you can't always know every detail of every situation and just interject in people's lives. They're even photoshopping him to look darker in the mailers they're sending out... it's just disgusting. I've gotten all the godless mailers and terrorist crap. Do they really think they're going to win this by fear this time?!
It's sad for this country to be in the situation where negativity, slander, slime, and corrupt ways win an election.
Why don't the people who rally and support such methods stop and think about what this means. This is bullying - this is inciting fear. Is this what this nation wants for leaders?
I am personally embarrassed as a citizen of this great nation. If one were to step back in history, this is NOT the way our forefathers envisioned the political process of this country.
Dirty politics is disgusting and belittling.
Shame.
