Another thing that stood out from the show, Luntz mentioned that McCain spent 5 years in the Vietnam war prison camp and we all respect him for that. What he did he do to be released?

Sell out his fellow POWs in order to escape. Is he the war hero everyone talks about?

So can we all assume you've taken your own good advice?

Some of us still have to make a choice in the next primaries.I think Obama promised Edwards Secretary General?

I'm a former Edwards supporter, and am for sure voting for Obama. I don't hate Hillary. I just disagree with her votes over and over again - key ones being the vote to allow Bush to start the Iraq war, supporting its funding until it became unpopular, then trying to take the side of the opposition, voting with the lobbies on too many issues to list here, and ending with her recent Kyl-Lieberman vote. She changes sides when she thinks it will win votes, she is not about issues, but about herself.
Edwards was about us, not himself. He was not rewarded for this, but in the spirit of his idealism, I cannot support Hillary. I am a woman, and like the idea of a woman president, but am not willing to vote for Hillary solely because she is a woman. I caution other women who might get lazy and not look enough at her record. Please do.

Bill,
You unite the most divisive people ever. (Obama, Hillary, take note!) Of course they just happen to be all locked in a room together with you. What ever works. I love your show. For the most part you bring up my same sediments. What I would really like to put on the table is how can we take all the Patriot Act and like laws to indict and bring to justice our current administration when they are out of office. You know, lock them up for being terrorists. maybe throw in a little water boarding for sport, maybe strip them and toy with them, Freeze their assets and give the money and companies back to the people of this country. To me that is paramount to changing the paradigm.

Interesting fact
Romney Campaign - Minus $35 Million in debt
McCain Campaign - Only $1.8 Million is cash
Ron Paul Campaign - $8 Million in cash, no debt!

"McCain said that people are angry about American casualties, not American presence. Yet, American Presence in the Middle East is exactly the problem, and the reason why bin Laden etc is attacking us. They attack us because we are over there!"
This sounds like a Ron Paul message. Bill, are you a Ron Paul supporter?

So true! It's funny how Bill doesn't realize how transparent he is some--most--times.

I am so turned off by the Media, but what can a person do? Just try to read and view as many different outlets as possible. Know the bias of the presenter...they all have them, and go from there. But, it does suck!
