It's almost over, finally!

Obama '08

The fact of the matter is that this is bigger then some stupid rules. Voting should be a universal civil right and how dare the democratic party decide that some people's votes shouldn't count. The whole idea of certain states having more power then others is crap! There should be a national primary day where all registered democrats vote on the same day in a secret ballot. None of this caucus crap. The DNC has shown to me to be the ultimate hypocrite. All the votes from Florida need to count was what they said in 2000. Now we're being told none of their votes should count? Apparently the DNC has taking election tips from Mugabe the DICTATOR of Zimbabwe. Democratic party my A S S.

While Hillary is talking about sexism, I have a few questions.

Once Hillary becomes president, is she going to stop sexual discrimination in the Military Draft?

I ask you, why must my son register for the draft when your daughter does not have to? This is sexual discrimination to its fullest. Why must men be required by law to go and fight for their country when women are allowed to sit at home and watch reality shows on TV. Women have the same civil rights as men but women are not required to fight for them. Will Hillary stop this sexual discrimination in our federal government?

How about sexual discrimination in our courts? Why is it presumed that a female will be a better parent than a male? Why do men have to prove that a mother is unfit as a parent in order to obtain custody of his child? Is Hillary going to change this when she is elected president?

Why are women given lighter sentences than a man when they both commit the same type of crime? Is Hillary going to change this when she is elected president?

Will Hillary stand up for equal rights for men as well as for women?

I am in utter amazement! Why do we need the DNC to decide if our votes should be counted? Did we not go out and vote? The ONLY fair way to count is to follow the voters leads. We chose whom we wanted to represent us and NO one should have the legal right to decide that my vote or yours is now going to be giving to someone other than whom we voted for. Isn't this against the law or at best going against the constitution. If this is not decided the way we voted I for one will no longer trust or believe that my vote counts! PLEASE someone with sanity step in!

WomenCount. Thank goodness there are people who think rationally, and speak articulately. The voting is not over. Obama has not won the popular vote, and has little chance to win it in November if he is the nominee. Obama is divisive: he sat for twenty years in a pew listening to the hate-filled messages of Jeremiah Wright; he has a wife who publicly announced she was never proud in her adult life to be an American; he is friends with a priest who mocks others and casts aspersions on them; he has no foreign experience and little public political experience except to vote "Present". As former Hardin County Iowa Democratic Chair and a lifelong Democrat, I will vote against Obama if he is the Democratic nominee. He is the least qualified of all people running. I chose substance over style, experience over enthusiasm, and reality over rhetoric.

Obamamohammeds want this as Commander-In-Chief???? We have a bunch of whackjobs on the left.....

Launched a week prior, on May 23, 2008, Vets for Freedom PAC (VFFPAC) released its first political ad entitled "Senator Obama: Talk to Commanders or Meet with Dictators?" which stated that Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) never sat down even one time and talked one-on-one with Gen. David Petraeus, the U.S. Commander in Iraq, although he has stated that he would be willing to meet without precondition the leaders of terrorist countries like Iran.

YA'LL AIN'T SEEN NOTHIN' YET....Kerry swiftboats gonna look like little rubber duckies.......

NOBAMA!!!

I still can't get that out of my head, "I want all!" The Clinton camp is so unfair and they really need to just go away.

This is a good sign for the general elections inNovember. "Hollyroller" and "daddyo" are PETRIFIED at the prospect of Obama as the Democratic nominee. Witness how rabid their baseless attacks have become. I mean litterally grasping at straws to try and gain some traction. "Barack Hussein Obama" say it, it's just his name and can't jump out of print and eat your children. His former glory seeking Pastor wants to make a name for himself and gives you neocons something to lock your rabid jaws on and shake till it's dead. Still nothing on Obama, just association. A catholic priest, TELLS THE TRUTH, in the privacy of his own church and you neocons try yet again to slander through association.

I truly love reading these desperate and baseless posts of yours because it reaffirms that you people have NOTHING on Barack Obama and that deep down you know that he'll win. Change is coming my little neocons so just breathe and let it in, for it will be over soon.

It's almost over, thank goodness. The party must unite instead of turning on themselves. Truly, I think Republicans must be standing in stunned amazement at their good fortune. The time to come together is now if you really want the party to do well in November.

Many people who had planned to vote were told their votes wouldn't count so they didn't show up. The "primary results" are bogus. This is Hillary's desperation on display and it's both fascinating and uncomfortable to watch. Kind of sad, really.

Seat all the Delegates from Michigan and Florida. The voters are not be puniched because it is the super depegates who fought to have the election held.

There is NO NO NO NO NO NO NO splitting of votes. Obama removed his name from the ballot so he does not deserve any delegate votes.

It is the PEOPLES VOTE THAT COUNTS and that is not to be split in half because Obama thinks he deserves some of the votes. He deserves NOTHING as he WITHDREW his name himself .

Seems as though he is in the same delimma. He always blames everyone else for his mistakes and can never face up to his own actions - even when attending church.

Dear Arthur, while you're entitled to you opinions, I do feel what you have written is not the truth. First of all Hillary has NOT won the popular vote. She CLAIMS she won the popular vote, but to get that number she threw out the results of 14 caucus states, & counted Florida and Michigan (despite Obama not even being on the ballot in Michigan). Sure, if you throw out the votes of 14 states (13 of which were Obama landslides), and you count FL and MI her way, then Clinton wins the popular vote. By a whopping 19,000.

Other things you wrote are also wrong. I listened to the entire Wright sermon where he says "America, your chickens have come home to roost!" This sermon was given right after 9/11. The context of the "God damn America" stuff was that Wright got carried away, expressed anger, and then about a minute later stopped and said "Do you see what I just did? I lost my temper. I started to blame. I let evil into my heart. I pray that God heals me of this evil, and that he heals all Americans of the anger and pain they feel over the 9/11 attacks." Funny how the media never shows him reflecting about what he said was wrong. They only show the little sound byte where he's acting crazy. I myself do not admire Reverend Wright, but I do see his place in the black community, and I understand how, having been a young man in the 1950s and 60s he has experienced a horrendous amount of discrimination in his lifetime. But even he thinks that his anger over it is sinful, and says so to his parish.

Also, to take Mrs. Obama's remarks out of context is just plain wrong. I heard the whole speech where she made that remark and she was talking about how proud she was that Americans were finally getting politically involved and actually trying to change things. She was NOT trashing America. Also, she was expressing a wife's pride in her husband's success, which was very feminine and sweet.

For you to say that Obama has "little foreign experience" proves to me that you are misinformed about him. Obama has been on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for the past four years, and visited Iraq, Afganistan, Pakistan, and Russia on official State missions. He has a degree in International Relations from Columbia University. He writes extensively about America's foreign policy history in Audacity of Hope, and discusses how we can improve our standing in the world by taking a stable, predictable course in our diplomacy. Furthermore, many world leaders respect and admire him, which would certainly be a refreshing change after the foreign policy bungling of the present administration.

I am a Republican, but I can't vote for McCain and watch him follow the footsteps of Bush, worsening our standing in the world community and leading us into a severe economic depression. Even Rupert Murdoch, the conservative Republican owner of FoxNews, says that he will vote for Obama, for economic reasons. I agree with him more.

Sorry Doctor Ide. If you are going to condemn by association than you have to include Hillary and McCain in that circle. Nobody seems to be talking about Hillary's former pastor who was found guilty of child molestation and I'm sure we all know about McCain's pastor issues. Seeing how she has had the same pastor for a while, obviously she and every other member of that church must advocate child molestation right. That's basically the frame of logic you are following with this whole pastor association game, right??Furthermore, if you think Obama is divisive you are smoking crack. Not to mention, the priest speaking at Obama's church was right on about what he said. Hillary feels a sense of entitlement to the Dem nomination and now because she is losing she is crying foul. She has changed her colors more times than a cameleon in this campaign season and every possible under handed shot she could take at Obama, she did. Now, Obama may not have as much experience as Hillary or McCain, but the last experienced president we had has driven this country to ruin, so forgive me if I don't necessarily put a tremendous amount of faith in experience alone.

What a bunch of sore losers.

Hillary and her supporters DID NOT WANT those states to count b/c she assumed she'd have it all wrapped up by Feb. 5th; so she had no incentive to want those states to count.

Now she is behind, she wants those states to count.

Can you believe anything her and her surrogates say anymore? Harold Ickes, her campaign manager VOTED to remove FL and MI delegations. Now he's for it b/c she's behind.

Is this the kind of PResident you want? Sore loser who will do anything and say anything to win?

Option Two
Flip the bird to your lifelong friends on the Left and reverse all their foreign policy ideas. Send several battle groups within striking distance of Tehran. Beef up our forces next door, in Iraq, the Gulf and Afghanistan. Get serious with the Russians to pull their engineers out of Iranian nuclear plants. Block North Korean help for A'jad's Bomb. Stop German companies like Siemens from selling advanced electronic gear to the mullahs. Turn Syria around, to isolate Iran's proxy armies in Lebanon and Gaza. Mount more state-of-the-art missile defenses on Aegis war ships --- we have 82 of them, a formidable world-wide missile defense if we ever decide to use them. Finally, build up US troop numbers.
And then let the New York Times go into hysterics.
Call Option Two the "George W. Bush strategy." Or if you don't like that, it also happens to be the Wilson-FDR-JFK-LBJ-Truman strategy. It used to be standard Democrat foreign policy, before the Dems turned hard left after 1968.
So which one -- the Carter Option or the W Option -- do you think President Obama will choose? With Iran pointing a loaded gun at the world, and thousands of Basiji marching in the streets, all praying to become martyrs, there is not much ground for coming together and finding hope.
Presidents have to make real decisions with real consequences. So far, Obama hasn't shown any willingness to make hard choices, even in his political campaigns. He wants to be the messiah, but without renouncing bad characters like Rezko or Wright or Ayers. Like Bill Clinton, he's great at having his cake and eating it, too.
Since the Left has been completely wrong about foreign policy since Jimmy Carter, they are very poorly equipped even to think about an Iranian Bomb. That's why they keep denying that there's any real problem with nuke proliferation. And yet it's rushing straight at us, like that roaring locomotive in the tunnel.
I'm just curious. Charles Krauthammer just pointed out that the Left has made it impossible to act preemptively against rogues with nukes. When Iran explodes its Bomb, will the Left apologize for being wrong about national security for decades? Will the CIA apologize for its wretched failures, one after the other, to warn about life-threatening dangers?
