EVERY ANSWER IS YES

Is McCain basically the same as Bush on issues like the war and the economy?

Are there 34 secret U.S. torture sites around the world?

Do Republicans help the rich, with the attitude of “the heck with the Middle Class?”

... Disappearing jobs, but corp. profits near all-time highs
... GAS OVER $4.00/GALLON, other prices doubled in 3 years
... In 2004, 16 oz. of peanuts were about $1.69, now $3.49
... In 2004, a gallon of milk was about $2.09, now $4.69

Have Republicans done basically NOTHING about illegal immigration, because cheap labor helps corporate profits? Does McCain Support “GUEST WORKER VISAS? that allow MORE immigration?”

Have Bush/McCain-type Republicans consistently cut funding for the National Flood Insurance Program?

Are adults and children as young as 14 held by Bush’s Republican government, without any charge filed against them?

Has the Iraq war cost the U.S. over THREE TRILLION DOLLARS ($3,000,000,000,000.00), or
about $22,405 for every taxpaying U.S. citizen?

Has irresponsible Bush/McCain-type Republican war spending ruined the value of the dollar, raising the cost of nearly everything?

Do CEOs get gigantic bonuses and severance pay, while average workers get the shaft?

While most people are hurting financially, are YACHTS AND CAVIAR selling better than ever?

Are Republicans the torture, illegal prison, over-spending, war-mongering, rich-fat-cat, CEO-loving, caviar-eating party?

Should Americans send part of their tax rebate to either the Democratic party or to www.barackobama.com ?

Should this posting be copied and re-posted to help defeat the Do-Nothing Republicans?

I think it is doing a dis-service to Curious George! He has more class than Obama when you compare and look at each's character faults.

OBAMA IS NOT ONLY FOR LATE TERM ABORTIONS, BUT AGAINST SAVING THE LIVES OF BABIES WHO SURVIVE LATE TERM ABORTIONS: Sen. Barack Obama (D.-Ill.) portrays himself as a thoughtful Democrat who carefully considers both sides of controversial issues, but his radical stance on abortion puts him further left on that issue than even NARAL Pro-Choice America.

In 2002, as an Illinois legislator, Obama voted against the Induced Infant Liability Act, which would have protected babies who survived late-term abortions. That same year a similar federal law, the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, was signed by President Bush. Only 15 members of the U.S. House opposed it, and it passed the Senate unanimously on a voice vote.

Both the Illinois and the federal bill sought equal treatment for babies who survived premature inducement for the purpose of abortion and wanted babies who were born prematurely and given live-saving medical attention.

When the federal bill was being debated, NARAL Pro-Choice America released a statement that said,“Consistent with our position last year, NARAL does not oppose passage of the Born Alive Infants Protection Act ... floor debate served to clarify the bill’s intent and assure us that it is not targeted at Roe v. Wade or a woman’s right to choose.”

But Obama voted against this bill in the Illinois senate and killed it in committee. Twice, the Induced Infant Liability Act came up in the Judiciary Committee on which he served. At its first reading he voted “present.” At the second he voted “no.”

The bill was then referred to the senate’s Health and Human Services Committee, which Obama chaired after the Illinois Senate went Democratic in 2003. As chairman, he never called the bill up for a vote.

Jill Stanek, a registered delivery-ward nurse who was the prime mover behind the legislation after she witnessed aborted babies’ being born alive and left to die, testified twice before Obama in support of the Induced Infant Liability Act bills. She also testified before the U.S. Congress in support of the Born Alive Infant Protection Act.

Stanek told me her testimony “did not faze” Obama.

In the second hearing, Stanek said,“I brought pictures in and presented them to the committee of very premature babies from my neonatal resuscitation book from the American Pediatric Association, trying to show them unwanted babies were being cast aside. Babies the same age were being treated if they were wanted!”

“And those pictures didn’t faze him [Obama] at all,” she said.

This is the Bill where Obama was the only dissenting voice.

Why didn't the publishers of Curious George file a lawsuit when they put out "Furious George" with Bush's picture a few years back?

Obama backers:
As Nader said, why don't we see pictures and photo ops of Obama and other black leaders in the US? Is he afraid people might think he is black?
