    Omaar is a home grown terrorist setting out on a blog jihad. You blogs are too long winded cut and pastes. When you are actually writing you use all caps now those short burst I actually read, but you happen to be yelling or did you not know that, ever heard of spell checker. I bet OMAAR is bestist???s friends with Bin. I bet he isn???t even from this country. Does he really think he is going to convince anyone to vote for Barry Obiden?

      The Bush Family haver an Over 25 Year Familiy Friends Relationship with the Bin Laden Familiy and Still Do.

      The CIA Trained Bin Laden...Are You Kidding !!

      Bush Sr was the CIA Director !!!
      -------------------------

      Bush Jr. and the Bush Family are still Family Friendly with the Bin Laden Family.

      The Republican Bush Admministration had the Bin Laden familiy FBI Flown Home during a No Fly Period, Days after (911)

      Without Detaining or Holding Indefinitely Bin Laden Family, until the Osama Bin Laden's Capture or Surrender...Duh !!!

      Thanks Bush Jr. and The Republican Christian A!! Holes !!!

      -------------------------------

      Note: The Wall Street Journal quietly reported on September 27, 2001 that the Bin Laden family had invested with The Carlyle Group, a merchant bank that boasts several Reagan-era former government figures including George Bush Sr. among its management. The story received some attention from the alternative media, but even the fact that George W. Bush sat on the firm's board for four years barely raised eyebrows in the mainstream media or among the public.

      In fact, the Journal's revelation was the tip of the iceberg. Growing out of their roots in the oil business, the interests, ambitions, and achievements of Bushes, the Bin Ladens, and most importantly the Saudi royal family have been intertwined for a quarter century. What follows is The Dubya Report's brief chronicling of that history.

        "Yes They Can" McCain and Palin will be a landslide and there the campaign is dominating the minds of all obama even obama its totally got Obama off track at his rally???s and everything. I can???t figure out who Obama is trying to imitate with his speaking John Wayne? But John Wayne was such a nice guy. You have seen how nasty Obama gets when he debated with Hillary. I predict landslide McCain n Palin and I???m kittykat9 and approve this message.

        Omaar is just presenting the facts. I wish you two would do the same. We don't have to rely on lies and vacuous statement to support our candidate. You two just make it up as you go. Are you both Christians. If so, I don't want everyone to think that we are all like you. There are plenty of Bible Based Christians that are not filed with hate and lies.

    The truth about Palin will come out

  • Posted By: Iron Horse @ 09/09/2008 2:25:20 PM

    Palin disparaged Obama???s legislative record, both in Illinois and in Washington:
    Palin
    : But listening to him speak, it???s easy to forget that this is a man who has authored
    two memoirs but not a single major law or even a reform, not even in the state Senate.
    Of course, we can???t say what Palin considers ???major.??? But if Palin???s own ethics reforms
    in Alaska were important enough to highlight in her convention address, then it???s
    only fair to credit Obama???s efforts on that topic. In 1998 in the Illinois Senate,
    Obama cosponsored an
    ethics overhaul
    that bars elected officials from using their campaign funds for personal use and
    and was called the the first major overhaul of Illinois campaign and ethics laws
    in 25 years. It also bans fundraisers in the state Capitol during legislative sessions.
    Obama???s Republican cosponsor Kirk Dillard even
    appeared
    in an Obama ad last summer describing Obama???s skills working with members of both
    parties to get legislation passed.
    In Washington, Obama was instrumental in helping to craft the 2007
    ethics reform law
    that ended gifts and meals from lobbyists, cut off subsidized jet travel for members
    of Congress, required lobbyists to disclose contributions they ???bundle??? to candidates,
    and put the brakes on other, similar common practices.
    In addition, we already
    noted in a recent article
    Obama???s efforts with Republican senators to help detect and secure weapons of mass
    destruction and to destroy conventional weapons stockpiles around the world, and
    to create a publicly searchable database on federal spending. http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/gop_convention_spin_part_ii.html
    ================ Eve though Alaska is far, far, far smaller than Ill. she also requested milllions of dollars in earmarks than would be necessary had it been Alaska and not Illinois. See the website above.
    ================
    As for claims of Obama's $1 billion earmarks, where's the evidence/the factual source? You must also factor inwhether Ill.'s governor pressured Obama for those earmarks, and not Obama requesting the money on his own. I will try hard to find the earmarks Obama requested, but so far I was unsuccessful, leading me to believe the claim against him was politically motivated and not factually based.

      And how is all your babling make Obama a better candidate? You still don't get it, do you? Let me say again in plain English: Obama is not even good for the VP post, let alone being good for president!!! Get it now???

        Prove your point by providing accomplishments of either McCain or Palin. You can't.

        Palin is a Fraud. How can a Governor still money from the tax payers in order to sleep in her own home for over 300 days. This is indefinable.

  • Posted By: FreeMenThink @ 09/09/2008 3:13:36 PM

    Palin lies. L-I-E-S. No other way to put it. During her gubernatorial campaign, which was just two years ago, Palin was defiant in her defense of the Bridge to Nowhere: "We need to come to the defense of Southeast Alaska when proposals are on the table like the bridge and not allow the spinmeisters to turn this project or any other into something that's so negative."

    She was for the bridge, she supported it fully, and she ran on that issue. Then Congress said 'no way', Alaska and the Bridge to Nowhere became a laughing stock, and only then did she pull her support. It's a matter of record. But she will bold-face lie to us anyway. And if she's lying now, you think she'll stop if she gets even more power, money, and control?

    She is a liar, she knows it, and we ignore it at our peril. She makes a mockery of the public's trust and has the nerve to call herself a Christian to boot. These are Christian values? Not for my children they aren't.

      To you think its Christian-like to support abortion? This is what you are doing by voting for Obama. The biggest sin of mankind. Oh, but Palin changed her view she must be a terrible person.

  • Posted By: whoisrite @ 09/09/2008 12:43:17 PM

    These comments are amazing, I am a christian woman and find the the american people have tended to dumb down. I will not say that Sarah has not accomplished a lot because she has. I am tired of our lives being treated like a chess game, " ur muv". I want the best person for the job and what i have seen so far is the republicans countering moves but not given any real concrete evendence on what they want to do. I have seen them flip flop on the there platform throughout this process so far. I am a single working mom and not by choice. Sarah doesn't appeal to me because she doesn't represent me. Yes we are women and mothers but what does she know about metro cities and the problems they face, and what does she know about trying to keep food on the table and lights on provided you saved your home. I am not inpressed by a gun slinging, moose burger eating, rebel bikini wearing mom. That doesn't speak to me. For those women out there that would vote because she is woman, shame on you, because she may look like you and be a mother like you but until she can prove that she is like you that is not good enough. Don't take second when you know that there is a first out there. This looks like the civil war to me this country is so devided that it is hard for me to believe that god has blessed the McCain, Palin ticket. I have found that republicans get confussed with the letters p and d, "they are the gop but they think the are god

You have TOO MUCH MONEY! You are TOO SUCCESSFUL!!! Give your money to the meat heads who partied too much in high school, were TOO DUMB to finish or go to college! You have too much and the poor black women out there having 3 to 5 kids each DESERVE your help, welfare, free health insurance for their kids that grow up to be criminals!

    Thumbs down to Newsweek for soft-pedaliing Palin's inclination to ban books from the Wasilla library. It doesn't matter that reading material was never taken off the shelves; the very idea that she even thought about it should be disturbing. What made Palin believe that she should decide what the residents of Wasilla should be able to read.

    At the time of this incident, Palin belonged to a church that believes in the literal truth of the Bible and creationism. I can't help but wonder her religious views had something to do with her desire to limit access to certain reading material. I know I don't want someone in the White House whose inclination will be to politicize science like the Bush administration has done.

    • Posted By: jmd8888 @ 09/09/2008 3:02:49 PM

      http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1839724,00.html

      AlaskaNomics:101 ...Palin Lies...A LOT !!!

      Sarah Palin thinks she is a better American than you because she comes from a small town and a superior human being because she isn't a journalist and has never lived in Washington and likes to watch her kids play hockey. Although Palin praised John McCain in her acceptance speech as a man who puts the good of his country ahead of partisan politics, McCain pretty much proved the opposite with his selection of a running mate whose main asset is her ability to reignite the culture wars. So maybe Governor Palin does represent everything that is good and fine about America, as she herself maintains. But spare us, please, any talk about how she is a tough fiscal conservative.
      -----------------

      Palin has continued to repeat the already exposed lie that she said "No, thanks" to the famous "bridge to nowhere" (McCain's favorite example of wasteful federal spending). In fact, she said "Yes, please" until the project became a symbol and political albatross.

      Back to reality. Of the 50 states, Alaska ranks No. 1 in taxes per resident and No. 1 in spending per resident. Its tax burden per resident is 2 1/2 times the national average; its spending, more than double. The trick is that Alaska's government spends money on its own citizens and taxes the rest of us to pay for it. Although Palin, like McCain, talks about liberating ourselves from dependence on foreign oil, there is no evidence that being dependent on Alaskan oil would be any more pleasant to the pocketbook.

      Alaska is, in essence, an adjunct member of OPEC. It has four different taxes on oil, which produce more than 89% of the state's unrestricted revenue. On average, three-quarters of the value of a barrel of oil is taken by the state government before that oil is permitted to leave the state. Alaska residents each get a yearly check for about $2,000 from oil revenues, plus an additional $1,200 pushed through by Palin last year to take advantage of rising oil prices. Any sympathy the governor of Alaska expresses for folks in the lower 48 who are suffering from high gas prices or can't afford to heat their homes is strictly crocodile tears.

      As if it couldn't support itself, Alaska also ranks No. 1, year after year, in money it sucks in from Washington. In 2005 (the most recent figures), according to the Tax Foundation, Alaska ranked 18th in federal taxes paid per resident ($5,434) but first in federal spending received per resident ($13,950). Its ratio of federal spending received to federal taxes paid ranks third among the 50 states, and in the absolute amount it receives from Washington over and above the amount it sends to Washington, Alaska ranks No. 1.

    the White House, a BBC poll said.
    All 22 countries covered in the poll would prefer to see Senator Obama elected US
    president ahead of Republican John McCain.
    In 17 of the 22 nations, people expect relations between the US
    and the rest of the world to improve if Senator Obama wins.
    More than 22,000 people were questioned by pollster GlobeScan in countries ranging

  • Posted By: careerdaytrader @ 09/09/2008 8:25:34 AM

    Why Obama and his Democrats are IDIOTS.

    His tax policies at the BEGINNING of a recession will kill this economy. If you feel you won't be affected by his tax you are a total idiot!

    Businesses will pass the taxes along to you, the CONSUMER. This will create INFLATION and the Federal Reserve will be forced to raise interest rates to curb it. This means that you will pay for his tax increases through the things you buy AND your house payments will go up due to higher interest rates.

    Now when you factor in that higher taxes BRING IN LESS MONEY to government as many companies avoid the taxes through offshore companies because the TAX PLAN ISN'T FAIR, then the whole thing blows up in dummy Obama's face!

    Guess what it gets WORSE! With these higher taxes there will be LESS investment and not only fewer jobs but jobs LOST. We saw this with Jimmy Carter, same policies now but with a prettier and younger face on them.

    Did you also know there are 13 trillion in offshore accounts just from the rich in the US? Past higher tax policies on the rich caused this. Don't make the same mistakes other dumb A$$ democrats have made, keep that money in the US economy!

    You may not like Mc Cain but your job, your future and your children's future DEPENDS on him getting elected.

    • Posted By: whoisrite @ 09/09/2008 2:51:09 PM

      13 trillion because of past tax policies that caused them to put the money in off shore accounts. Well I say to that. That was not caused by the dem, the republicans spend so much time poring money into a war, money we did not have, so what do we do.............CREDIT. form other countries such as Saudi, China, Japan, India to help fund the war, we owe them so that take it out on trade in America. These countries are and have been buying America. and the republicans have been using the money to fund a war instead of taking care of home. So don't talk about what the result of why 13 trillon is in off shore accounts talk about why it is that way and what needs to be done to fix it and not repeat it. One thing is for sure McCain and Palin is going to give us more of the same. Republicans have messed the last 8 years up badly and to want to clean it up is a good thing. Don't think that they should be rewarded for the mess that has been made and expect that you can get a do over for another 4 years..............

    Alaska is, in essence, an adjunct member of OPEC. It has four different taxes on oil, which produce more than 89% of the state's unrestricted revenue. On average, three-quarters of the value of a barrel of oil is taken by the state government before that oil is permitted to leave the state. Alaska residents each get a yearly check for about $2,000 from oil revenues, plus an additional $1,200 pushed through by Palin last year to take advantage of rising oil prices. Any sympathy the governor of Alaska expresses for folks in the lower 48 who are suffering from high gas prices or can't afford to heat their homes is strictly crocodile tears.

    As if it couldn't support itself, Alaska also ranks No. 1, year after year, in money it sucks in from Washington. In 2005 (the most recent figures), according to the Tax Foundation, Alaska ranked 18th in federal taxes paid per resident ($5,434) but first in federal spending received per resident ($13,950). Its ratio of federal spending received to federal taxes paid ranks third among the 50 states, and in the absolute amount it receives from Washington over and above the amount it sends to Washington, Alaska ranks No. 1.

    Omaar is a full time Obama staffer! His job all day long is to sit at his PC, cut & paste comments, and come up with vile things about McCain/Palin.... I wonder what kind of degree one must obtained to work for Obama's camp like this!!!

          Thanks! Omaar is the biggest idiot on here, it feels good to speak of his homosexual pot smoking days! It's why he's now in his mommy's basement blogging all day.

    If Omaar were an Obama staffer rather than a strong supporter hungry for change, SEA Observer, it would be a disastrous strategy for the campaign to jsut have a staffer copy and paste. It would be too foolish and too wasteful. So, stop trying to feed readers falseholds. They are not too dumb like you to think a well-managed, highly efficient campaign like Obama's would waste bucks on something so insignificant like this.

    • Posted By: careerdaytrader @ 09/09/2008 11:53:40 AM

      Obama's campaign is well managed? That's FUNNY! He shot himself in the foot by not picking Hillary. Now he will have to work like a DOG just to get back on top and he has no chance of defeating Mc Cain in the debates!

      He already lost to him and O'Reilly blew him away too. Obama is a stuttering idiot when not in front of a teleprompter! haha just watch idiot horse, you'll see. And you're welcome as one of the people who pay YOUR fair share of taxes and who will help destroy Obama and let YOU keep your job, your house, etc. Or probably you're in an apartment since you screwed up your life so much!

      • Posted By: NewsWkDickG @ 09/09/2008 12:13:44 PM

        What you say is funny and a poor attempt to discredit Obama while trying to again stir emotions over Hillary. What is ridiculous and pitiful (not very funny) is McCain picking the 'pit bull with lipstick' who turns out not only to be grossly dishonest but also a real nut!
        As far as O'Reilly is concerned, even though he is an egotistic idiot who abuses and tries to intimidate his guests, Obama handled him well. Also be careful about what you say about taxes as reality says, Obama will only raise them for people making over $250k and the Republicans will just keep taking more real spending power from the middle class.

        • Posted By: careerdaytrader @ 09/09/2008 2:38:30 PM

          Firstly I am in the group that makes over $250k! I made $330k last year and paid about $107,000 in taxes. Under Obama I'd have paid $150k to $160k last year.

          So yeah I hate Obama for this reason alone.

          But what if I was like you and wasn't successful?

          Well you will STILL PAY for his tax increases as business owners will raise their prices to make up the difference lost and you will end up paying more for everything you buy.

          Secondly businesses will have LESS money due to the social security taxes and $11,000/yr cost per employee for health insurance. This will mean massive layoffs, forget about job growth we will have MAJOR unemployment just like Europe 9 to 14% unemployment.

          So this is the main reason I feel Democrats are so DUMB! You can't see how YOU will pay for Obama's plans in the end.

          Don't even get me started at how this price increases cause inflation and the fed will have to raise interest rates. That means your HOUSE MORTGAGE costs you $200 to $400 per month more for a $200,000 loan!

          You Democrats are CRAZY! Go to the book store and read any Economics 101 book. I know it will be ABOVE your head and "pay grade" as that idiot Obama says but give it a shot!

    WillnotvoteObama,
    The truth crap you just posted didn't come from an even handed source; it came from a partisan source. See, major newspaper, including some conservative newpaper, are disputing your dumbass posting to the contrary. You think you can sway intelligent voters? Sure, you can vote your ass and not what matters to this great nation.

    Rendell: Give her Hell !!! She had her Bush Jr. Speech and Now EXPOSE the FACTS, The TRUTH about PALIN !!!

    "I like her," Rendell concluded. "She is a good person, she has tremendous potential but in No Way, Shape or Form is she RERADY to be President of the United States."

    The Rendell call, organized to preempt a McCain appearance in Pennsylvania, was ostensibly on the topic of how the Arizona Republican has engaged in dirty politics when it came to discussing Obama's tax record. And on this issue, Rendell was again in vintage outspoken form.

    "First of all, let me say it should be embarrassing for the Republican ticket that Rick Davis, Sen. McCain's campaign manager, said 'this election is NOT ABOUT ISSUES'

    Good Lord, with all the challenges facing America it has to be about Issues...

    They don't want to talk about issues because when the TRUTH COMES OUT ABOUT THE ISSUES the American people will favor Sen. Obama tremendously."

    The Republicans, he added, "would make the All time All-Star Team for Spiders the way they can SPIN."

    But most questions, as has been the case since the Palin announcement, were focused on the Alaska Governor.

    Would she siphon of Clinton supporters in Pennsylvania ? NO, said Rendell, who expected Obama to receive somewhere along the lines of "95,96, or 97 percent of the vote."

    Was she Qualified to Serve as VP ? Absolutely NOT, he bemoaned.

    The McCain camp argues that, "Governor Palin, because of her Executive Experience as a Mayor of a (Small 9,000 Person Town and Governor of Alaska for 20 months), has that Experience.

    Well, I refer you to a McCain camp document they put out when [Virginia] Gov. Kaine was considered to be vice president. They attacked his Experience and Derided Richmond [where Kaine was Formerly Mayor] because it was the 105th Largest City ...

    BIG NOTE: I think Gov. Palin was mayor of the 50,000th [Most Populated] City in the America... It was Fair Game to say Gov. Kaine was not Qualified because of his Credentials. If they are going to be CONSISTENT then they believe that Gov. Palin is Unqualified to be Vice President."

      Nobody cares if ANY of this stuff is true. We LOVE Sarah! We love lower taxes and an economy that is ALLOWED to prosper vs dying a slow death with Obama's huge taxes - income taxes, capital gains taxes, social security taxes. Hell Obama has NEVER met a tax he didn't LOVE!

      Screw Obama and all of his MORON supporters. You Omaar are the biggest idiot on Newsweek, congrats for your total stupidity!

      • Posted By: Omaar @ 09/09/2008 1:38:10 PM

        CODE WORD: WE DON'T CARE, SHE'S WHITE AN WE WANT KEEP WHITES ONLY IN THE WHITE HOUSE !!!

        SHE'S UNDER EDUCATED, BUT SHE'S WHITE...THATS ALL I CARE ABOUT !!!

        WOW...PROFOUND AND SO OBVIOUS !!!!

        • Posted By: careerdaytrader @ 09/09/2008 2:34:15 PM

          Lets assume I am a racist! Explain how Obama's HUGE tax increases will NOT cause millions of jobs to be lost? Let's debate issues you MORON. I will destroy you in any debate because you are so stupid and don't know the issues, just copy and paste BS you've found on other blogs made up by other losers also living in their mommy's basement!

    "For that one reason among many, the United States will suffer unless there is placed into your government a group that fears the Lord if they cannot love the Lord. They will fear Him and find measures to stop the slaughter of the unborn." - Our Lady, April 14, 1984
