I would like to know why, after over 30 yrs. in the senate, Mr.McCain has not taken any responsibility for paying back the over 30 billion that the congress has borrowed from the social security trust fund. As I see it, he is part of the problem and doesn't want to be part of the solution. He appears very obsessed about foreign affairs, but has little compassion for the economy. Well I have a flash for him and his allies. If the economy is not straightened out real fast, nobody will have to wory about foreign affairs. We will be overrun by every country that wants a piece of the good old USA.

what's going on with Tom Brokaw as the primary responder to the debate?  Did he watch the same thing I did?  His comments centered around "McCain really went after him..."  He did??  I didn't see any sort of focused sharp comments from McCain.  And then he had nothing good to say about Obama.  This blatant prejudice has no place on a national network.  I'll be watching CBS or ABC for future debates.  Both had a much more reasoned and intelligent response.  

As a former crew member of the USS Intrepid I am going to New York on Thursday to Man the Rail with about 200 other former crew members for the emotional, for me, return of the "Mighty I" to its refurbished home on the Hudson. This will be a once in a life time experience for this United States sailor, as well as all the others who will stand tall on the rails, to celebrate the last movement of one of the most decorated ships in World War 2 in the forseable future.
I know Brian features pieces on the Nightly News about veterans and was wondering if NBC will be covering this historic moment on Thursday. I am asking this because if in fact there will be a piece on the Mighty I, I would record the show for my veiwing pleasure and memories.
Thank you
