fiona08 I agree Shamsta, any "racism" toward whites is caused from all the very real atrocities that were/are brought upon people of color by white people in this nation. So yeah, there is some bitterness, but who wouldn't be bitter. As white citizens we have never...

Yesterday at 1:30pm I lost my mother. I wish I could say that I was prepared to lose my mother, but I wasn't. I wish that I could say that I am handling this with grace and dignity, but I can't. Yesterday I lost my mother...

fiona08 Oh, Ivaldean, I am so very sorry. I don't think any of us are ever ready to let go of someone we love so dearly. I know it will take a long time for this to stop hurting so intensely. I am certain that she knew she was the mother of your heart. From watching...

fiona08 I'm envious, Annie. I have never been involved officially in a campaign. I feel like I am spread too thin right now to volunteer, being a fairly newly single parent, working and taking classes. I would love to do it in the future. You go girl! Very exciting to...

fiona08 I do think racism is rampant in this campaign. We have all heard people raving about whether Obama is actually a US citizen, because his father is Kenyan,and freak out about his name because it sounds Arabic. I mean, my God, his middle name is HUSSEIN! He has...

OK the law has changed, and everyone is required to have one word tattooed on their forehead. I'm not sure what reason, I just woke up one morning and everyone I seen had only ONE word tattooed to their forehead. YIKES! That...

fiona08 I guess I would put the word HUMANITY. There are so many things you could use a tattoo on the forehead for. You could advertise, you could make people smile, you could provoke people, you could describe yourself, or you could remind people of something they...

fiona08 I don't think this particular incident will have much to do with McCain losing his quest for the Presidency. People understand that this woman was at the very least, an attention seeker, and likely a very sick woman. She really doesn't have much to do with...

The difference between John McCain and Barack Obama in leadership experience and foriegn policy experience is different as night and day. Why then would we as a country give the keys to the family car to a "teen" just learning to...

fiona08 I want someone who is calm and unshakable. We have seen in the last few months, that that would not be McCain. He has become erratic, to say the least. He has a temper he can't even contain during a short, on camera, period of time. What is he going to do when...

fiona08 You're wrong. I don't hate Bush, at all. I don't think he has been a good leader. I don't think he is a competent president, but I don't hate him. There are few people I hate. So please don't put words in my mouth.

fiona08 I don't think that will be the case with Obama. I think he is going to remain the person we have seen throughout his campaign. The person his family has seen. And the person who has done much in his career to help those less fortunate. He is intelligent,...

fiona08 Those who care about people, those who have compassion for others, will vote for Obama. Those who pretend greed is patriotic, and judging others is their duty, and loving war is the only way to support our troops, will vote for McCain.
