Stop Talking About Race and Gender — by Catherine Morgan (cross-posted at Care2 Election and The Political Voices of Women)

O.k. - I’m bored with Clinton and Obama going on and on about the “race/gender” non-issue. Voters are going to vote on the actual issues (the economy, the war, healthcare, taxes, etc)…I am sick of hearing them attack each other over twisted words meant to sway voters with race and gender tactics. Just stop it! You too, Main Stream Media! Stop making this an issue, when it is not the least bit important to how these candidates will handle “actual” issues important to the American people. You are wasting critical time. Voters need to hear these candidates talk about what they will do to “heal” our country, not continue to add to the “fracturing” of it. So please…Just Stop It!

This is from a post I’ve just done at the Care2 Election Blog.

Is it me, or did Bush just pull another bait and switch in the middle east?

Bush calls for Mideast Peace

As he began his nine-day trip to the Middle East, President Bush said on Wednesday that he saw a historic opportunity for peace in the troubled region. Bush said he hoped to see an end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by the time he leaves office in January 2009.

Gateway Pundit

As President Bush spoke out about the prospects for peace between Israel and the Palestinians in 2008, protesters in Gaza were shouting “Death to America! Death to Israel!” in Gaza City.
