Sen. Clinton gave McCain credit for having a "world of experience". I am just an average Joe and I know McCain's statement regarding troop levels in Iraq was not true. Sen McCain is a senior senator and claims to be a foreign policy expert. He is also making statements to convince Americans that we are "winning" in Iraq and its getting safer. What is he up to?

I am aware that much attention is focused on the democratic primary contest and the general election in November. However, we as Americans have an obligation to ensure that the injustices perpetrated by the Bush administrated are investigated and if offenses can be proven, individuals are appropriately punished.

On this Memorial Day as we remember our fallen Veterans, as a country we need to show true appreciation to our servicemembers. I would also like to remind you of the president's promise to veto Webb's New GI Bill.

Hillary contradicts everything Barack has been campaigning for. However, it is not all about Barack, Hillary or John McCain, it is about what is best for America. Even though many people don't want her any where near the White House. Many people want her at the top of the ticket.

Consider the Pros and Cons.
