Obama's Work Claim

Why is this what is being reported on, something so small and the fact is that he did work his way through college, it was def not paid for by his fam as suggested here, and working at all in school is hard enough, OF COURSE he has loans, his family isnt as elite and wealth as that of the cindy mccains. Now if Newsweek were a nonbiased publication you would report on the www.factcheck.org article discussing the LIES that McCain is putting out in his smear Ads about Obamas stance on Energy...all LIES. Obama is more proactive about alternative energy than McCain has ever been. Why is it that all of McCains and the RNCs ads smear Obama rather than promote and glorify their candidate, its quite simple because there is nothing glorious about McCain...Clark was right!

Are you seriously writing about this...why dont you report on www.factcheck.orgs article on teh BOGUS claims that McCain is saying about Obama's stance on Energy. What about the fact that McCain's ads cannot glorify himself because there is nothing worthy of glory about him...Clark was RIGHT!. Rather he, as the RNC always does, resorts to smear campaign ads....PATHETIC!!!! i will be surprised if this comment is even posted.

What's the big deal? Are you telling me that Obama, a Democrat, is luing through his teeth? That he's padding his resume'? He HAS to. Because he doesn"t HAVE one, He got all those things "Passed", just like Chris Dodd didn't know he was getting a sweatheart deal on his mortgages. Just like Bill Clinton "Never had sexual relations". Just like Nancy Pelosi had a "Plan" to bring down gas prices. Where's the stuff on REZKO? This PUNK, Obama, is a crook, a lightweight, and a MARXIST, who doesn't know ANYTHING about ANYTHING. And, unfortunately, we're ALL about to find that out.

I have to agree this is a great article!! So not like newsweek, they usually only say good things about Obama! I think the media should be nuetral during a presidential race!!!

CRAP! What more can be said about this man.

So in other words, Obama stretches the truth, takes 100% credit for other peoples work, along with throwing his typical white grandmother and his "uncle" pastor under the bus.

Sounds more like a pathological liar. The more you say it, the more you believe it.

So, basically what you are saying is that not all of it is true, but 95% of it is....and I agree, if you have to take out loans and then work to pay them back....you have worked your way through College....Did McFlip/Flop work his way through College? Hell, did they even have College when McFlip/Flop was growing up? Obama could not have done alot through the US Senate, as he hasn't been there long enough, which is a good thing because he hasn't been caught in all of the Washington Bull which makes him the perfect person to change Washington......QUESTION......HOW MANY TIMES HAS AMERICA EXPERIENCED BLACK POLITICS IN ACTION?,,,,,,,,There you go, so all of this is new to us....!!!!

Reach,reach REACH,Senator Obama...so you won't look like a send up and look like somebody! (Quick! Run for the teleprompter!).
Your party needs you to direct it out of it's very poor approval around the US House and Senate and you're running commedy ads!
You didn't work then or you'd know how to work now! Run for the teleprompter!

Obama is a typical politician so of course he overstates his importance and how hard he ahd to "work" his way through college. He is nothing new or different, same old, same old, and he will change positions on a dime if it will help him get elected, get used to it.

YEA.This article is completely stupid. Now after so many years of negative advertising. Right wing writers like Viveca are coming up with this BS.
The point is he worked in college. He did do something. There are so many people that go to these Ivy League school and just sit on the fat checks that their parents dished out, but Barack Obama wasn't one of them. And this my friends is what i call poor journalism.

I must say that I agree entirely with Mickie. As a people, I don't know why we enjoy tearing the other person down as much as we apparenlty do. Instead, tell me positive things about your candidate and give me reasons why he is the better choice.

I am determinded this year to not vote for the candidate who uses the most negative campaigning and that includes comments from surrogate writers.

I wish you would all try to keep this election on a higher plain that past campaigns. Now that would really impress me.
