Obama is still rambling -- he hasn't even addressed the question at hand about what he said about Hillary!
Unbelievable! And he's one to talk about special interests, look at all of the Oil and Energy Money backing him with campaign money!!

They have repeatedly let Obama wander on and on -- why aren't they nailing him for his failure to vote on key issues affecting farmers? HIV/AIDs? Check out his 118 missed votes and the major issues he did not vote on as a Senator! Why can't they raise issues about his voting history? This speaks volumes about his performance as President!!
They keep interrupting Clinton and letting Obama give his speeches. Unbelievable!
A SINKING CANDIDATE WILL HANG ON TO A STRAW; PERHAPS, BUT I PRESUME THE ONLY STRAW YOU'LL FIND IN THIS OHIO'S DEBATE MIGHT BE ATTACTHED TO CAN OF SODA SOMEWHERE IN THE AUDIENCE..
THERE IS ONLY ONE QUESTION ON MY MIND; WHO IS BEST ABLE TO ADOPT ONESELF TO ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES, POLIITICALLY AND NON-POLITICALLY WITH RAPIDITY AND ACCURACY, TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION GLOBAL, ECONOMIC AND ATMOSPHERIC CHANGES? YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT THE WORLD IS A BIG CIRCLE; MANY OF THE TODAYS ANSWERS LIES IN THE PAST BUT WE' RE SO BUSY SEARCHING FOR THE FUTURE THAT IT HAS BECOME A CONFLICT. WHAT WE NEED ARE LEADERS WITH GREAT AMOUNT OF FLEXIBILITY, WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING AND ENOUGH PATIENCE TO LISTEN TO THE NATION.
I DON'T KNOW IF THE WORD PARSE APPLIES, BUT THE OBAMA RENO REFERENCE TO REAGAN IGNORES A REAL SERIOUS PRESIDENT IN JIMMY CARTE WHO CORRECTLY STATED THAT THE COUNTRY WAS IN A MALAISE AND CALLED FOR ZERO BASED BUDGETING(SPENDING WHAT WE HAVE AND PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE) AND MOSTLY NOTABLY CALLING FOR CONSERVATION AND LESS USE OF FOREIGN OIL WHICH CAUSED A PROBLEM BUT WAS AHEAD OF THE TIMES. REAGAN SCRAPPED HIS IDEAS AND TOOK THE COUNTRY INTO A TORANADO OF FISCAL IRRESPONSIBILTY
What matters to you most when choosing a presidential candidate?
1. honesty & integrity
2. someone who will defend our constitution, our borders and our sovereignty.
3. someone who knows the political system and can actually get things done.
4. a good public speaker who can inspire, motivate and unite our very divided country.
5. someone who can earn the respect and support of the people
6. someone who practices what he preaches
Do you think such a person exists?
If yes, can that person maintain those traits, once in office?
If no, what can the people do?
Should the Electoral College be eliminated?
Newsweek is just about the most bias publication I know of when it comes to political reporting. And the glee shown by some of the writers borders on the ludicrous. Please stop injecting your personal elitist views into what should be objective reporting. It is plain for everyone to see that people have been abandoning in droves from your magazine. I for one stop subscribing to your magazine because I thought some of your regular contributors are living in lululand.
This Black White slugfest between the Clintons and Obama are fodder for the Republicans in the fall. For the past several elections the Republicans have won the political game of "divide and conquer". In this case Obama drew Bill out by ignoring his eight years when suggesting that it was the Republicans with the ideas since Reagan and then cleverly saying, "I didn't say they were good ideas". How could Bill resist? Clever! And then he played "hurt" when Bill struck back. Now the Republicans know how to beat Hillary, Bill and even Obama. Obama gave them a road map!
The media is reprehensible. They are all primadonnas that can not admit when they are wrong. They interrupt their guests, step on worthwhile comments, and act all high and mighty. If the media wants to continue this jibberish, I believe at some point in time the American People will turn them off. I guess the WRITERS STRIKE is really a bad thing. BTW Chris Matthews , I believe, was the first to interject race, when he said after NH primary, that black voters would say one thing to the pollsters (voting for Obama), but when in the privacy of a voting booth they voted for Hillary. Someone should look up his quote on that.
And another thing - What the heck was the relevance of Tim Russert's question at the debate, about what Toni Morrison said about bill Clinton being the first Black President???? What the heck was that .....???if not to stir up the racial issues.
NO ONE CARS what she said, and many people do not even know who she is.
Here is the testimny of the man who claims had gay sex and CRACK Cocaine with Obama. Curiously Obama has NOT disputed Mr. Sinclair testimony.
OBAMA PROBABLY DOESN'T WANT TO BE TESTED FOR COCAINE SO HE LIES LOW FOR NOW. AND HOPES THIS SCANDAL WILL GO AWAY.
Obama is accused and up against the wall.
The Obama camp is silent which is suspicious since if untrue they would be suing Sinclair right now.
Here is the video:

Voted and supported Senator Obama who is campaigning FOR America ! He's not campaigning to be the first black president. That will be as incidental as the late president, John F. Kennedy, being Catholic. He's campaigning to bring unity that erases party lines and revolutionizes a deeply dysfunctional government. Dysfunctional political tactics employed by a disgraced ex-president, and the disgrace of silence in the immediacy of false or mischaracterized accusations by candidate Clinton will serve only to reinforce this country's dysfunctional government. I've chosen a presidential candidate who is brilliant, who has heart, who has character and integrity, and who has the courage of his convictions, including voting his conscience.
Comment:
In Obama's own words yesterday he said he is not sure if the people who support him now would support Hillary if he (Obama) is not the Democratic Party candidate in November. Obviously he will not. He also said three days ago he would have to check and see how well Bill Clinton could "dance" before he would consider him to be a "brother". Some of my very best lifelong friends are Black, Hispanic, and Muslim. I am very, very concerned that Barrack Obama is a closet racist that will destroy the race relations in this country.
So I humbly ask that you and all those you know to do your own investigation and report this if true and put an end to this divisive primary campaign before too much damage is done.
God Bless You.

"We were always playing on the white man's court -- by the white man's rules. If the principal, or the coach, or a teacher wanted to spit in your face, he could, because he had the power and you didn't. The only thing you could choose was withdrawal into a smaller and smaller coil of rage."
Obama once described the white race as ???that ghostly figure that haunted black dreams.???
???That hate hadn't gone away,??? he wrote, blaming ???white people -- some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives.???
During college, Obama disapproved of what he called other "half-breeds" who gravitated toward whites instead of blacks. And yet after college, he once fell in love with a white woman, only to push her away when he concluded he would have to assimilate into her world, not the other way around. He later married a black woman.
Obama???s book is primarily about his rejection of his supportive white maternal extended family in favor of his unknown black paternal extended family.
At age 33, he wrote in "Dreams from My Father, that " he found solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against his mother???s race.
Obama vowed that he would "never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father???s image, the black man, son of Africa, that I???d packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela."
In his memoir, "Dreams of My Father," Obama writes of a story in Life magazine that influenced him -- about a black man trying to bleach his skin white. No such article could be found in Life or Ebony.

"A presidential election between, say, McCain and Obama -- both positive and honorable candidates -- would be better for the country. A race between McCain and Clinton would be better for the Republicans. "
"But even amid this ideological discord (among Republicans), there are three words that cause nearly every Republican to forget their differences and join hands in common purpose: President Hillary Clinton. " By Michael Gerson, WP

Defeater in Chief for the Democrats??? Hillary and Bill are scrwing Democrats up. Why are they dividing and tearing their own party apart??
Did Hillary ever oppose Bush's war bills??
Hillary = continuation of Bush foreign policy.
So Clinton Didn't know Rezko Either, huh?

She obviously didn't know Stan Lee Either

I wonder how much it cost to get your picture taken with the president.....
I'm Still voting for her though....
I think Hillary Clinton is the most knowledgeable and experienced person to be president. She is the most likely to win come November and the most likely to be able to take on the job of being president from Day One! Obama does not seem up to the task of being president. Hillary has a more detailed plan and a better understanding of the complex issues that we face. I also do not like the way Obama has used the issue of race to stir up emotions and cause a division in the Democratic party. To say that Hillary said something racist is totally off the mark and very mean spirited! The Clintons have a history of standing up for civil rights. We should not allow issues of race or gender to divide us! We should also not vote someone because of their race or gender. I support Hillary because she is smart and experienced, not simply because she is a woman. That is true equality electing someone based on their merits! I hope that America can finally evolve to that point where we judge people based on their merits!
VOTE Hillary!!!
I would like to point out that there is not one issue that either Obama or Clinton have brought to the agenda that John Edwrads has not already adressed at length in a downloadable book on his website. You wanyt to know how someone stands lon the issues ask them to put it in writing. I am amazed how time and time again we allow the media to dictate our elections. John Edwrads is a true candidate with honest intentions of saving America's middle class. I personally refuse to elect to Washinton one more person with ties to special interest groups I want a president who is there to work for me not the corporations. Take a look at how much money each candidate has gotten from different groups. John Edwards NONE! He has refused to take it not just this year but during his entire political career. Meanwhile Obama and Clinton continue to talk about taking on drug companies and insurance companies all the while taking their donations. I want a president who will work for me not the corporations.
WILL SOMEONE PLEASE TELL OBAMA THAT HE IS IN A CONTEST FOR THE PRESIDENCY AND NOT AT THE HARVARD DEBATE CLUB.HIS INCESSENT WHINING EVERYTIME ANOTHER CANDIDATE SAYS ANYTHING THAT HURTS HIS FEELINGS,IS REALLY TOO MUCH. HE GOES INTO POUT MODE AN SCREAMS LIKE A 2 YEAR OLD ON THE PLAYGROUND WHO JUST LOST HIS LOLLLYPOP.GROW UP!!! THIS IS PLAYING HARDBALL WITH THE BIG BOYS.IF HE THINKS THIS IS ROUGH,WAIT TILL HE SEE'S WHAT HE'S IN FOR SHOULD HE BE THE NOMINEE (GOD FORBID) AND THE BOYS FROM THE GOP START THROWING REAL PUNCHES AT HIM.
He does seem somewhat thin-skinned.
Too much entitlement mentality, or too much social promotion?
Didn't he know what he was getting into when he decided to take on a First Lady with a supportive former President as spouse? No accounting for naivete otherwise.
I just want to know what people are thinking?? Who the hell was Obama before this whole thing started?? Nobody (other than die-hard dems) had heard of him. Do people REALLY feel comfortable electing this man for PRESIDENT?? Give me a break, people! Wake up!!!
I completly agree,
* community organizer
* civil rights attorney
* constitution professor
* state legislator
* U.S, Senator
I've never heard of him, and all the famous politicians are the important ones..
Well apparently you were not interested enough in 2004 to tune in to the DEM convention or watch the news around that time. He gave an amazing speech for John Kerry and even though he personally did not support the WAR he manage not to make it an issue for John Kerry. He was a team player because he wanted to put a Dem in the White House and not cause a riff in the party. Of course, HRC and Hubby will put a spin on that and turn it around. It is not like they did that much to get a Dem in the White House they where just trying to get HRC in the Senate. nter Your Comment
So let me get this right he gave a great speech was cunning enough to say he did not support the war so as not to make Kerry look bad and that qualifies him for president. Setting our standards a little low don't you think?
Oh no your right! You have really changed my mind. I'm glad we have thinking americans like you around to remind us how badly we need to have the Hill-Billies back in the White House! We have such a wonderful sorted history to return to with the Hill-Billies! What EXPIERENCE!! Why We had Bill lie about sex and interns to the american people, followed up by The Great lies of George Bush and The Expierenced Dick Chaney. Now we can bring the relatives in. BECAUSE>>>>>I'm sure Hillary was home reading Southern Womens Magazine while billy boy was out smoking marajuana. Oh But wait ....he didn't really get high.....Oh Ya you are SOOOOO much smarter than most americans!
hehe, yea obama girl, he didn't inhale... thinking he did is, i suppose, just a "fairy tale." Isn't it sad to see all these people who would rather have an experienced liar than someone else who is allegedly without the requisite "experience?" Wasn't there someone once who ran for president at the age of 46 and wasn't experienced... hmmm... maybe I'm just... no, wait... oh yea... it was Billary!
doesn't bill have a date with an intern somewhere?
It's better to screw an intern than screw a country, huh dems????
Is that what you think your choices are?
hehe... lmao. :) Come on now, we Obama supporters are better than that (even if it was funny as hell and apropos to the situation.) Good one, obama girl:) I wish he would go on his date and quit making Democrats look bad. Hey Bill-- Some of us still value honesty and integrity, yanno?!
Well at least he isn't the one who supressed tears and had an "emotional connection", and is always stating that the men are picking on her, and having her Colonol Saunders look-alike, after a successful weight watchers diet, husband scream like a lunatic anytime Obama or anyone else for that matter points out that she's a consistent liar.
Are you paying attention at all? He's not whining. He is saying that people shouldn't LIE TO GET ELECTED. Do you disagree with that? You like being lied to? Then by all means, vote for Hillary and her husband and you'll get plenty of it should they win. I plan on voting for someone who fights for the TRUTH even if it means losing against a disingenuous, mud-slinging, establishment candidate.
AND O-BAMA DOES NOT LIE...WHAT PLANET UR ON....EVERYONE TELLS LIES UNTIL U ARE CAUGHT...JUST AS HILLARY AND JOHN BROUGHT OBAMA TO LIGHT ABOUT OBAMA BEING ABSENT OVER 130+ AND HE STATED HE DID NOT WANT TO VOTE ON CRITICAL ISSUES BUT IT WAS IN BEST TO HIS POLITICAL INTREREST......WHAT WE PAY YOU FOR THAT....SO THIS IS THE PERSON YOU WANT IN OFFICE...A PERSON MISSING IN ACTION OR PLAYING IT SAFE AND YA'LL WANT HIM TO RUN AMERICA.....
Yea we need to worry about mud from the GOP with Obama. Lets remember the stained dress, the cigar, and bill's LEANIng tower (does his manhood lean to the right or left according the Monicas testamony? I'm sure the GOP will remind the world) Do you really THINK Americans wanna fight the GOP's to have the Hill-Billies back in the White House! Give me a break!
And by the time the republicans are done with Obama he will have been dealing drugs and pimping back in the hood. Don't let fact get in the way of ruplican dirty tricks, it is going to happen regardless. From my observation of Obama over the last few days once ti really gets rough -- like he gets the nomination and he is actually -- he will come unglued.
Who has beaten the Rupublicans at their own game? The Clintons. Are we better off under Hillary than a George W. Bush clone like McCain? Absolutely. I don't want 8 more years of the republicans.
The clinton's lost! Bill was exposed for the lying cheater he is. Hillary may except and forgive his lies but the american people do not. If he wants to screw around that fine. Most of us could give a crap who he's screwing. He'd have done better to keep his mouth shut than to stand up and lie to the american people.. Oh yea ......if Obama was selling..... Bill Clinton and George bush were buying! Oh I forgot , Billy boy smoked the crap but couldn't even manage to get high...Oh I forgot..George found GOD and got help.
Wow you sound like Karl Rove, Let's get accustomed to mud slinging its politics and that''s just how it is. Let me spread lies about you and Dont Complain its just blogging...
MORT72 IS A PERVERT!!!!
just kidding just making a point. Politics is suppose to be about the people and the politicians make it about them.
Micromanagers die quickly in our line of work, and if you have the lack of respect to allow those under you to shine forth with their expertise while not having enough of your own, you'd better hold all the spades in the Character department to ensure your team's success until you can get up to speed on knowledge.
Character is built upon the bedrock values of Honor and Integrity. Honor is showing others the respect they are due, even when they are disrespectful to you. Integrity is doing the right thing, in the right place, at the right time, regardless who's watching.
Partisan politics aside, military members don't really have cameras in their faces to get their views out, since MSM has been ordered to refocus/ divert the masses' collective attention. (See, the war over here has taken the back seat to the more pressing issues of Britney, Lindsay, OJ, et. al.) We have our duties, and then we have our families to consider. We try to ensure both are covered, but we sure could use the help of our fellow Americans to really investigate the candidates and ensure we get the right mix of person who is going to be smart on both the foreign policy and domestic policy portions of the Office.
Even though we are serving a world away and at times it seems our interests have taken the backseat until it is politically convenient to drag out the troops as a backdrop for a speech or a point of pity for a sound-bite, we trust you all to lay aside the polls, group-think, tradition, and whatever else may be binding your individual and collective minds to carry our voice forward. Measure Experience by the points I've made, and judge the candidates, all the candidates, evenly and not with clouded hearts. Your Soldiers are counting on you the way you depend on us to keep you free and without concern for your safety so you can have genuine debates and free thoughts. Don't waste the time or the chance to make us the great country your Servicemembers are fighting for???
