Someone needs to teach you math, Anthony. Harding, Kitson and Torpy are triplets, not twins. Response: The U.S. does not have the highest crime rate of the world, look it up. Obama has been a gun grabber since he entered Illinois politics. He's running scared, change and reform are snapping at his heels.

You do the math. George Bush wasn't president in the '90s when Billie Boy was offered Osama on a silver platter, twice, and refused to take him, saying, quote, "I didn't know what to do with him," unquote. How many people would be alive today if he had taken him?

Billie's surplus was, in part, higher taxes, drawing down of our military and closing bases.

Obama wants to tax individuals and businesses making $250,000 up. He says up to 50 percent. You are out to lunch if you think that won't trickle down to all of us.

Another speech I heard him give was the time a bill was on the floor for funding for body armor and pay for our military. He admitted to voting against the bill to force a withdraw from Iraq. His excuse - the war was lost. Not very smart.

Sarah Palin is nobody's joke. She ad-libbed her speech at convention. Guess you missed that, and the Charlie Gibson lengthy interview that has been playing on all the TV stations and radio.

Please don't put the last few Democratic presidents in the same league as Roosevelt, Truman or Kennedy - men of courage.

Yes, I do blame Obama for abortion when he votes for right to choose, partial birth and letting failed abortion babies die. I agree with Sarah Palin, rape and incest are not good enough reasons for an abortion. I do not believe there is any reason for abortion. You whine and moan when lives are lost in war, but more than 1,000,000 babies are killed in abortions in our country, but that's OK.

I don't care if John McCain was born with a silver spoon; out of the two candidates, he's the best we've got. His fellow prisoners have been by his side through this campaign.

Don't preach to me about war heroes. Members of my family have served since the Revolutionary War up and including now.

Some were Republicans and some Democrats, and I loved them all. Some died, some were wounded and some came back with the demons of war. My dad fought on Omaha Beach, Battle of the Bulge and Argonne Forrest in World War II. So don't patronize me. Get your facts straight, sir. One last thing. I'm not your honey or your sweetheart.

God bless America.
