I was really disappointed that this was allowed to go on and seemed to be encouraged by a few moderators.

Such a shame that we (as an online family) are letting the subject of politics get in the way of our friendship.

As I tell my eight year old, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

You know what they say about politics & religion, it's best not to discuss it at all.

What seems so very long ago now, there were many people seeking to be
their party's candidate. I read up on each of them. Thought I had
made my mind up but as each person withdrew, I found myself having
to make changes in my decision. When it got down to the two
from the main parties we have, I dug deeper into each of their
backgrounds, including their wives.

When I came to the quote from Michelle Obama that she was ashamed
to be an American until her husband decided to run for President, that
really got my goat. I sure as heck don't want someone like her representing my country as First Lady.

I agree it's too bad that some things have been said to and about
MBBers that were unkind. It's time to put it in the past and try to
make things better for everyone here. We've cried enough over
split milk.

About the Obama and McCain threads, they are open for anyone
to post both positive and negative.

You and I must be twins! The person I supported isn't in the running anymore. Michelle Obama's quote and her husband refusing to Pledge Allegience sealed my deal. If they don't love this country they don't need to run it.
