McCain v. Obama = A Dirt Clod Throwing Contest

I am so sick and tired of these two buffoons.  McCain is working his rear off to make Obama look like a childish neophyte while Obama is working his off to look like an elder statesman.  I just want to barf. Do they not get what We the People are concerned about?  Do they not understand that it is "the economy stupid?"  Do they not understand that banks are teetering on the brink of collapse and that people are losing their homes and that the country is dependent on a bunch of ragtag countries with oil beneath their shores? 

We need a long term energy policy.  We need a long term financial policy with regard to credit.  We need one of these political animals to stop growling at the other one long enough to stop and talk about what is meaningful to the voters, the citizens, even the illegals for crying out loud.

The political gamesmanship that these two presidential wanna-bes are engaged in is so disconnected from reality that it is truly hard to believe that we want either one in the White House.  If they are going to be this clueless after the first of the year, then we might as well keep old George up thar.

This is a call out to John McCain and Barack Obama.  If you want to separate yourself from the other guy, QUIT TALKING ABOUT THE OTHER GUY ALL THE TIME AND TALK ABOUT WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO FIX THE MESS WE'RE IN.

If neither of you can do that, then I must assume that neither of you has a cookin' clue how to fix the problems.  I must assume that you don't have any answers.  I must assume that you are as dense as the ones up there now.

I ask you, no I BEG you to explain what needs to be done and to:

And for the love of God stop tossing dirt clods at the other guy.  I remember throwing dirt clods as a kid and I remember how dirty my own hands got and how the dirt would fall down on me as I winged one at my buddies.  I always ended up just as dirty as they did.

John McCain and Barack Obama, you two maroons are not making any of us feel any better about the mess this country is in or about our future here.  Our President isn't making any speeches about it, he isn't demonstrating any leadership.  HELLO!?!  There's a leadership vacuum here, anyone care to fill it?
 
Most Sincerely,

Hi, ML - your article helped me consider. The first bad economic time I remember was when I was in my 20s--the Carter years when interest rates were at 17% at one point. Down the road farther now, I'm looking at broader issues because I think that the American people need to look beyond their personal needs more (I hope we still believe we can take care of ourselves, with God's help), and we need a president and congress that will do the same. The quote of JFK "ask not" - keeps being said but no one wants to live it.
Glad you wrote an article that spurred reaction. Thanks.

Nice article, but I'm tired of the overused word, change without substative plans laid out. Obama, says he'll bring change, his track record indicates he has supported every tax break he has had a chance to vote on so I don't want that change! He won't support off-shore drilling, what does he support? Change!
