campaign

Sam Graves, a new low!

During my insomnia kick at about 5:30 A.M i was dreaded to hear another campaign commercial- but just like a car wreck, i couldn't turn away from the t.v. Instead of hearing a politician, an innocent sounding voice from a girl said to be Sam Grave's Daughter comes on. She continues on about how her dad would be the ideal candidate and before you know it she slams Kay Barnes! I was not infuriated at the fact he used his daughter for publicity, but that he used his daughter who cannot even vote, for a one sided comment against an opponent.

Questions that my grandkids will ask: national debt

"Many of you have talked about the need to pay down our national debt. I listened, and I agree. We owe it to our children and grandchildren to act now... My plan pays down an unprecedented amount of our national debt." George W. Bush, Feb. 27, 2001.

"Reagan proved deficits don't matter." Dick Cheney, Nov. 15, 2002

"Our projected budget deficits are not 'manageable' without significant changes in 'status quo' programs, policies, processes and operations.... We cannot simply grow our way out of this problem." David Walker, Comptroller GAO, Sep. 18, 2003
