Warned by the Court

Sarah Palin is not the issue. The issues are the economy, oil prices, the War in Iraq, Afghanistan,etc.,etc.. We need to stop the madness and stick to the issues. McCain made the same "lipstick on a pig" comment earlier about Senator Clinton's health care proposal. Why is it that when Senator Obama says it, it's considered sexist? The country is in trouble and there's no time for politics as usual, but that's what we get.

This is all that Newsweek has to write about? Now I know what is meant by "yellow" journalism! The media could use it's power to hold candidates accountable to their promises - but instead they choose to make a soap opera out of the democratic process - covering fluff and uncovering "dirt" to boost their ratings. Issues which truly effect our nation are not even discussed - and candidates are not strongly challenged on any faux pas. What a travesty the fourth estate has become! You might as well put up a "foreclosed" sign on journalists' conciences - because they have become morally bankrupt!

Palin's own state, "Anchorage Daily News" wrote an overall review of Palin's office. As an intelligent woman, she has done has some things very well, but she also definitely has some strong personal opinions of "what's right & what's wrong". Problem with that is that she likes to punish those wrongdoers herself. That's why we have a constitution & judicial system in this country. Palin is dangerous to women & to the US.

No offense to this black kid.....but there is a new video on youtube by this young guy name Kevin who is claiming to be Britol's baby daddy.....I tell ya.....this is better than the soaps.....What's next?

In case you all missed it, in his interview on CNN, the trooper admitted to tasering the boy, to drinking on the job, and to shooting the moose illegally.

He should have been fired.

The headline here is very misleading. The only person the judge was warning was Palin's sister, not Palin.

Palin wasn't under the judge's jurisdiction, she wasn't a party to the case, and he couldn't order her to do anything.

Muluk Palin is as corrupt as Cheney and Bush. McCain is more corrupt than Bush, but what they all have in common is an uncommon ability to lie, and do it with a straight face. But what is so unnerving is how republicans in general love the lies. Websters Dictionary new definition for republican is liar, cheat and ***.

It's pretty sad that John McCain can't gather a crowd without his little pit bull. Give me a BREAK. Don't insult my intelligence with Palin. I wouldn't vote for either of you- Man or WOMAN!!!!

Is this the only goosip Newsweek can find? Why are we still hearing about this? WHO CARES? Is Newsweek seriously telling me that this is an issue, that can change the election. I know you think that every little bit will help Obama, but please. Why dont you run an article explaining how Obama is goin gto bring all this Change he is promising. Maybe undecided voters could actually decide. Im not going to vote for Obama foar Change sake, thats whet every single politician has been promising for hundresd of years.

Karl Rove's Electoral Map Favors Obama as Discussed on Fox news Sunday Morning (260)

Looking at Karl Rove's electoral map which was done by polling in all the states, Obama currently has (260 Electoral Votes) based on states that are solidly in the democratic column. You need 270 to be president.

The biggest changes since 2004 so far is that Obama now leads by double digits in two states that Bush won solidly in 2004. Those two states are New Mexico and Iowa which combined is an additional 12 points for the democrats and minus 12 for the republicans. Obama only needs 10 electorial votes out of the remaing 7 battle ground states which combined is 57 electoral votes.

looking at the electoral map, I would put most of my resources in Ohio, Virginia and Colorado if I were Obama. I say Colorado because if Obama some how lost both Ohio and Virginia, Colorado combined with any one of the remaining states would put Obama over 270. We all know Nevada is leaning democratic so Colorado and Nevada would do it. Colorado has to be in that state "combination mix" if Obama loses Ohio and Virginia because Colorado has 9 electoral votes. (just looking at the worst case scenario) If Obama wins either Ohio or Virginia, it would put Obama over 270. There are other combinations of Obama winning but it would require him to win alot more states which may be difficult to do. But because of Obama picked up Iowa and New Mexico, it has allowed him to be able to win the presidency without Ohio and Florida.

Keep in mind in most polls Virginia is tied. The state hasnt been this close in turning blue since the 1960s. Its a state in which the black vote could put Obama over the top in Virginia which would then give Obama the presidency.

with less than two month til the election we can now get a clearer sense who is likely to win. I tell people dont focus so much on national polls. Both the campaigns are focusing on the electoral map and where they are up in each state. The map favors Obama which is why McCain made such a bold move by picking Sarah Palin to energize the republican base. But I think its too little to late. Obama has a strong foundation laid in these battleground states and he has a good chance in taking Ohio. John Kerry loss Ohio in 2004 by 200,000 votes. If John Kerry had won Ohio, hed be president now. The Obama campaign has registered almost a million new voters in Ohio while republican voter registration has declined in the state. Do the math. Kerry lost by 200,000 votes and Obama has gain almost a million voters through a kind of aggressive voter registration campaign which won him his seat in the US Senate. But even though Colorado, Nevada and North Dakota are toss up states in the margin of error, all three are slightly leaning towards Obama. So this is a good sign for the Obama campaign.

This is the problem with the media. Why do you keep bringign this up, no one cares. Why dont u focus on the real isssues.

McCain has used that very term this Year the Month of February and he's said WORSE...

McCain's Dughter told Fox News, that her "Father has even used the Term"

Yet a "Pit Bull with LipStick" and "I'm a Barracuda" is Not Sexist !!

Give me an the Free Thinking World a Damn Break !!!!

"Chelsea Clinton is so Ugly, she Looks like a cross between Hillary and Janet Reno, Reno being the Father"

Obama said, "The one area where [Rezko] did have a political interest in Springfield that emerged - this is all pre-Blagojevich - was gaming. He was one of the minority investors in Rosemont. That's one area where he could have asked me for favors, but did not, partly because I was clearly on record as being opposed. I was a gaming opponent as [Sun-Times Springfield Bureau Chief] Dave McKinney will recall."

But Obama did support gambling interests with his vote.

On Nov. 14, 1997, he backed legislation to permit riverboat casinos to operate even when the boats were dockside. The measure, pushed by the gambling industry and fought by church groups whose support Obama was seeking, passed with two "yeas" to spare -- including Obama's. He wasn't exactly up front with his constituency, telling a church group on a 1998 campaign questionnaire that he was "undecided" about whether he backed an expansion of riverboat gambling. The senator who led the opposition to the gambling measure, Republican Todd Sieben, said "He was obviously paying attention to this vote. It was a major, major issue in the state, and it was a long debate," Sieben said. "The inadvertent 'Oops, I missed the switch' -- I'd be kind of skeptical of that."

Obama is the unnamed "political candidate" referred to in a section of the indictment that accused Rezko of orchestrating a scheme in which a firm hired to handle state teacher pension investments first had to pay $250,000 in "sham" finder's fees (Note: he was found guilty). From that money, $10,000 was donated to Obama's successful run for the Senate in the name of a Rezko business associate, according to the court filing and the source.

Rezko, who was part of Obama's senatorial finance committee, also is accused of directing "at least one other individual" to donate money to Obama and then reimbursing that individual -- in possible violation of federal election law (Note: he was found guilty).

Obama donated more than $44,000 in Rezko-linked contributions to charity last year, including the $10,000 donation mentioned in the court filing.

That money was donated to Obama by Joseph Aramanda, a Glenview businessman and Rezko associate who, sources have said, is the ???Individual D??? prosecutors say received the $250,000 in finder???s fees demanded by Rezko. Individual D did nothing to earn those fees, according to prosecutors.

The $10,000 contribution to Obama was given in Aramanda???s name on March 5, 2004, records show. While Obama???s camp has said the senator did not know Aramanda, Obama???s office hired Aramanda???s son as an intern in 2005, at Rezko???s urging.

From www.dallasobserver.com/2008-02-28/news/obama-and-me/

Several months before Obama announced his U.S. Senate bid, Jones called his old friend Cliff Kelley, a former Chicago alderman who now hosts the city's most popular black call-in radio program.

"He said, 'Cliff, I'm gonna make me a U.S. senator.'"

"Oh, you are? Who might that be?"

"Barack Obama."

Jones appointed Obama sponsor of virtually every high-profile piece of legislation, angering many rank-and-file state legislators who had more seniority than Obama and had spent years championing the bills.

"I took all the beatings and insults and endured all the racist comments over the years from nasty Republican committee chairmen," state Senator Rickey Hendon, the original sponsor of landmark racial profiling and videotaped confession legislation yanked away by Jones and given to Obama, complained to me at the time. "Barack didn't have to endure any of it, yet, in the end, he got all the credit.

"I don't consider it bill jacking," Hendon told me. "But no one wants to carry the ball 99 yards all the way to the 1-yard line and then give it to the halfback who gets all the credit and the stats in the record book."
