Obama's Celebrity Cred

I aasume the elect Obama-08 campaign paid for this ad. Check the facts of the offshore oil drilling. He has a terrible energy plan and all economist agree. If you put higher taxes on products then the consumer will be forced to pay that tax. Ethanol from corn is not the answer either. CORN BASED ETHANOL RAISES PRICES FOR EVERYONE AS WELL. CORN IS IN ALMOST ALL PRODUCTS EVEN PAPER.
As far as rdoundas high road comments, any white senator that keep the friends and company Obama did would have been asked to resign. His church is racist, his former buddies have ties with terrorist. Remember "birds of feather flock together".

I am almost in tears laughing at the many posts of people complaining about "McCain's negative campaigning" HELLO----------This is what happens during elections! Things get dirty and ugly. The ads McCain is running now will seem like ABSOLUTELY NOTHING compared to what's coming Obama way after he is crowned the nominee. All of the Anti Obama groups and 527 are all coming out of the woods and are going to attack the Rock Star all at once!

Obama supporters, instead of whining about the negative ads, perhaps you should send some suggestions to your candidate on how he can effecitively respond to the ads!!!

I think the whole thing should boil down to believing in our fellow man. Obama did not even care about the soldiers in Iraq and Afganistan when he went on his whirlwind tour to show how he knows nothing about foreign matters. Lets hope the good people if the United States see through this man. Who really knows is the worst of 2- evils as the saying goes.

I wonder what would happen if people stopped falling for comments made by people like Tucker Carlson, who is determined to keep calling Obama the Messiah or Jesus. It is sad to see him become a has been but that is exactly what he is. Barack Obama is a flesh and blood human being just like the rest of us and he has a humble heart. He truly cares about the needs of his fellow americans and maybe, just maybe enough people will be able to wade through the muck and find the sensible message and workable solutions that he offers the country. I remember how the republican party went weak in the knees when Pres. Reagan gave his lofty, inspirational, " It's morning in America" speeches, they were so good I, a life-long democrat voted for him. Those who try to make Sen. Obama's ability to reach people with the message of hope must have forgotten how they felt about Reagan. Why is the republican party working so hard to convince the voters that they should have no hope for america. It seems to me hope is what gets most of us out of bed in the morning. If we do not hope and believe for a better world then we will be left with no way to move forward.

John McCain has flip flopped so often he has now flip flopped on his promis to run a clean campagne. It should now be plain to see by anyone who can think for themselves that John McCain is running the same type of campagne as George Bush becuase he is of the same mind set as George Bush and would be the same type of President as George Bush.

Republicans kill me. You complain about the liberal media soo much. The media is so unfair to McLame. It's funny I remember during the 2000 GOP primaries you guys were calling McCain a liberal among other things including the father of a half black child. Now he's the most conservative person in the world. McCain is epitome of a flip flopper. It's easy to forget that when you have a great politician outshining him. Keep it up GOP. The more you hate him the more we love him. Go Obama!!

I am so sick and tired of the ignorance with theis yeas political race. People, readers, politicians act like a bunch of school age childre! The annointed one the messiah, such ridiculous comments. Ignorance also includes the media that continues to perpetrate the spoken words out of the mouth of many. Obama is curious to many, and people believe his message rather right or wrong. I was an undecided voter, But I refuse to support people that continue to bash Obama with idiot statements as well as have a campaign call him a rock star or stupe so low to put him in the same conversation as a Brittany Spears or a Paris Hilton, if you are going to challenge discuss what makes sense the issues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not this bull......................... When Clinton ran for office, his popularity was over the top also. Was the right wing calling him a rock star also. Wake up people, this is politics as usual. Stick to facts. Face it this man is popular because he is bi-racial of African and Caucasian descent and he is making history, does this make him a rock star, the messiah or the other idioctc statements that are continuing to be heard on the airwaves. This is biggest bunch of crap..................... I Deal wkth issues, fight and challenge on issues McCain not this bull............................

i love how they call it "factcheck.org" , yet in EVERY single piece they write, its LOADED with opinion.

Obama stated he wants to tax energy more. Doesn't matter where its going (education) or what context he said it in, he said it, he believes it, its what he wants to do when president.

i'd say the Mccain ad got its facts correct.

I am sure that if Obama wanted to his campaign could run plenty of diry on McTurd. Some that come to mind: Keating Five, McShame's treatment of first wife, Audultry with Cindy , Cindy McCain's drug usage. Good stuff to drag out of the closet.... That McCain is a real saint.

Obama never attacks his opponents - he defends himself and adds true statements about his opponents that shed light on their positions in response to their negatives. He's above that because he's winning. He chooses to think like the winning candidate and visualizes that for himself, and it seems to happen.

A quick look at the factcheck.org website shows it is clearly a partisan site devoted to disproving McCain's alleged smears of Obama. Newsweek once again portrays a biased opinion as if it were neutral.

How about covering some of the smears made by Obama people? Like the blatant distortion that McCain wants to keep troops in Iraq for 100 years? Or the constantly repeated and completely fallacious claim that tax cuts only help the rich? Or Obama's massive litany of lies about his past, his associations, and more? Once Newsweek shows some of that, they may appear to regain some credibility.

Comment: Obviously, this Joe Miller is an Obama supporter. Electricity WOULD be indirectly taxed by TAXING coal or dirty energy. The essence is the SAME. He even shows the quote where Obama says, "We ought (probability or expectation) to tax dirty energy". DUH...Why are you making excuses for Obama??? However, just wait and he will flip-flop on this idea as well as all the others!

**********
Neither probabilities nor expectations are what they seem; it is a hope for consequence based on cause and effect. Case in point, GW Bush expectation was that the surge would rout all insurgents in Iraq. Obama postulates the probability that a tax on dirty energy would cause energy producers to search for, develop and provide cleaner energy sources. However, just like John McCain, he prefers ???Cap and Trade??? ??? It would depend on how the trade would be used or redirected.

opps, left these out McPig, McKeatingfive
