Why I Support Obama

He brings hope to a hopeless country; he brings ideas that will work - we cannot drill our way out of this. He understands that offshore drilling is a short term solution, and once those rigs are online are consumption will only increase and we will not have solved anything. He understands that oil will not necessarily cause a decrease in domestic gas prices, and that we will be much better off in the long run by investing in renewable energy. I am tired of McCain's lies - every time the news is on he's quoted as saying that he knows a lot about economics, only to say the next day that he doesn't know very much about economics. He cares only about what he thinks America needs and not how we are viewed in the world (specifically in Iraq and how the Iraqi PM supports a time line for withdraw). Obama can restore the respect of the world for this country. I am tired of McCain's lies. He smashes Obama for not visiting troops in Germany, when he himself did not visit the troops when he visited Europe in March; and the Pentagon, the night before the schedule visit, asked Obama not to because of politics - and yet the mudslinging campaign of McCain continues to spread lies. Oh, and let's not forget that three days ago McCain referred to the Putin as the German President...what an idiot. We have a monkey in office right now, we don't need another one.
