McCain and Obama

Every where I look I see people saying how they are afraid of Obama because they think he is inexperienced or a terrorist. Or people saying they are afraid of McCain because of his old age. I support Obama but if McCain got elected it wouldnt bother me. McCain is an American hero and would make a strong leader.

What is some people's problem? Having irrational fears over political candiates. McCain is in good medical condition and Obama will not turn the US into a socialist society. Even Palin poses a mild threat. Im pretty sure that there are checks and balances. One GS member makes it his point to always make wild accusations about Obama. It gets old fast.

Im I the only one that thinks everyone is overreacting on both sides?

the typical close minded christian comment was where I think you went wrong in this thread. Could have been something(by something I mean ?????,and what could have been something?,answer:????)dave123321

Really, that was a harsh generalization. There are basically two kinds of Christians anyway. The ones who believe and live like normal people (like ME!), and the Bible-thumping self-proclaimed warriors of Jesus. You're speaking of the latter.

People over-react, because they get so wrapped up in their beliefs, there is no "other side". It's their side and if you don't agree then you must be wrong. Like people who talk about how dumb Sarah Palin is, based on what they see in the edited mainstream media. As proved by the Charlie Gibson interview with the "I can see Russia from my house". If you watch it on TV, and read the full transcript, there's a massive difference in what was truly said, and what was shown. . The whole 'Joe The Plumber' thing is the same way. Fox News showed a small clip of what Obama was saying to Joe. If you listen to the entire conversation, then you'll see it was an entirely different convo than what was portrayed. But people who are blinded don't care about the truth, aslong as the person they disagree with is painted in a certain light.

People base most of their decisions on fear. Some have a fear of what McCain will do, and some have a fear of what Obama will do. And most really have no idea what either of them is actually 'truly' going to do.

I think a lot of the absurd characturizations have been made for both candidates. People just get carried away because they feel strongly about their candidate.

Im pretty sure that there are checks and balances.
