Minister: Split with McCain 'best for both of us'

This makes me wonder about McCain's judgment especially since he stuck with Hagee after the comments Hagee made about Catholics. McCain said he did not know about the Hitler remarks before Hagee's endorsement. This is the same excuse Obama made after hearing about Rev. Wright's comments. This smacks of hypocrisy especially after he criticized Obama regarding Rev. Wright's comments. I'll have to think long & hard before I'd vote for McCain.

Housing relief: Help, but for how many

People need to read all the loan documents prior to signing the loan documents. Ask questions & keep asking questions until you understand everything in the loan documents. In addition, on the very first & 2nd page of the loan document, it tells you what type of loan you are getting, fixed rate or ARM & if there's a balloon payment. Basically, you shouldn't be purchasing the property because you can not afford the payments that's why you had to get an ARM loan instead of a fixed rate loan. Getting an ARM loan knowing that you can not afford the payments when the loan resets is your fault (PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY). Why should the taxpayers bail you out for your mistake?

Kathleen Finan: Make the pain stop

Does your town have public transportation? If not, it's your choice to live in a town/city that does not have public transportation. In addition, it's your choice to have children. I live in San Francisco where there is public transportation & there are plenty of parents who transport their children on public transportation & commute to work the same way. In addition, bring your coffee/tea & your lunch every day and eat dinner at home every day-that'll cut your food cost in half.

The Federal Government's job is to defend this country against outside enemies & defend our borders. Has anyone heard of personal responsibility.
