It's not all that complicated, folks.
John McCain wants to change DC, Barack Obama wants to change America.
One candidate believes in and cares about this country, one doesn't.
It's your vote. Make it count.

"Critter" Crittenden remembers:

After the 155mm Paladins had blasted the Iraqi border positions, and the engineers and infantry moved in to clear a path, we dozed in the Bradley, waiting for the order to roll. Snippets of information were passed around.

“They’re saying the Iraqis are destroying their own infrastructure so they can blame it on us,” the LT said. ...

We got the order to roll around 0600. The column stopped and started, like bad rush-hour traffic, as 4,000 vehicles made their way to the breach in the berm on the Iraqi border.

“Shit, look at that column, all the way to the horizon,” the LT said from up in his hatch. “What’s the fucking holdup? This will take us three days. The war will be over before we get there.

“When we get back to the States and they ask what I did, I’ll just say, ‘I don’t like to talk about it.’” he said. “That way they’ll think I was in the shit.” ...
