Political Punch

The guy lies all the time but the media doesn't call him on it beacuse he has this appealing style. For example

Barack Obama said in his book that his parents met each other on the Selma March for Civil Rights with Martin Luther King on March 7, 1965 --- tying the union of his parents to one of the greatest moments in African American history and marking him for destiny.

The only problem is Barack Obama was born 4 years before the March to Selma on August 4, 1961----Oooops.

He can manipulate and spin just like any other politician---and this one was aimed right at the African American community to gain support.

Looks like Obama made a mistake. If Sen. Rodham Clinton really thinks NAFTA was a good idea, and good for the economy, there should be plenty of direct quotations to support it.
On the other hand, as far as health care goes, for Sen. Rodham Clinton to argue that Obama is misleading on the penalty issue is a bit misleading since she has hammered away at the issue. She has consistently said the problem with Obama's plan is that it doesn't make everyone buy insurance. Well I dont have a PhD in rational choice theory, but it seems to me that if I don't want to buy insurance, the only way to make me buy it is to penalize me if I don't. So, Senator Rodham Clinton, will you please tell us how you plan to make people do something they don't want to do without penalizing them?

here lately it seems that Obama wants to be President more than he wants to be honest and original. Please voters, don't be fooled by this mirage of a change agent. He is the one who is demonstrating 'politics as usual', when Hillary is the one who really wants to change the country and lead it in the right direction.

Seems like the Press is finally waking up this President's day holiday. Barack stealing speeches from other people, Barack's lie about Hillary using the "boon" word for NAFTA, show how FAKE this BO guy is. Please report more about his persona, before US is led in the wrong way of selecting an INEXPERIENCED person as its President.

Can you spell "nit-pick"?

Lydia,

I LOVE how you just spoke for the entire state of Florida. You must be very popular. The fact is, 1.7 million democrats were smart enough to get out and vote. 1.7 MILLION! If I lived in Florida, I certainly would have voted. I am smart enough to know that it was still the Florida primary and I am also smart enough to figure that the delegates may indeed be seated. A 're-do' is costly and unfair to those who voted when they were supposed to. The only way I think it might be fair is if at least the same number of voters from the real primary joined those who would have to vote again as "new voters" Can you prove that at least 3.5 million democrats would vote in Florida the second time around? If not, stop complaining.

Isn't it amazing how the liberals flocking to Obama are so eager to disenfranchise all the Democrats who voted in Fl and MI? Understandably, Obama wasn't on the ballot in MI so I'll give him a pass there, but FL is a different story. The libs screamed bloody murder in 2000, but now they don't want to count the voters in FL simply because their beloved Barack Hussein Obama (sounds like Osama) didn't win. I'm sure if Obama had won they would be screaming from the mountain tops. What a bunch of GD hypocrites if I ever saw one...

All I can say from day one..... I knew Obama was a fake that know how to talk a sweet game, and the youth is falling for it.... The great Movement!!! The next MLK or JFK...GIve me a break..... Yes the election is a joke now, I guess it like the American Idol now... It all about who cute or got the best smile now!!!! If you do your research like me, you will see Obama don't add up... His records that he never showup for? His religion for some odd reason had ties to racist group and ties to Muslim community.... He drugs habit and he divorce that never was talk about?

I be one of many DEMOCRATIC that be switching parties if Obama win.....

I might be a first time Republican in NOV....

I WILL VOTE FOR MCCAIN ANY DAY BEFORE OBAMA. I AM PREPARED TO SWITCH PARTIES IN A HEARTBEAT, SHOULD OBAMA LAND THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION. IN ALL GOOD CONSCIENCE, I CAN'T LET SOMEONE AS INEXPERIENCED AND SHADEY AS OBAMA GET INTO THE WHITE HOUSE AND RUIN OUR COUNTRY. UH UH, NOT NOW, NOT EVER. AND THIS SENTIMENT IS PERMEATING AMONG HILLARY SUPPORTERS PERVASIVELY. IF OBAMA WINS THE NOMINATION, MCCAIN WINS IN NOVEMBER. REMEMBER THAT THE PRIMARIES ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE GENERAL ELCTION, SO ALL THOSE POLLS RIGHT NOW DON'T TELL YOU A SINGLE THING ABOUT THE REALITY IN NOVEMBER.

It is no wonder why most Asians voted for Clinton. The group of Asians that i know do not know how to speak English, so the press could not influence their vote.
Most middle-age Asians recognize the character of a person just by looking at them. Most Americans know, too, but they have to show a lot outside before they can recognize. They can not see the hidden one (for example,in movies, in the beginning, everybody can infer who the villain is going to be at the end.
So far, i score the last four Presidents as almost 95% right.
Here is how i rate the current top candidates and their spouses for caring and compassion: Out of the ten:
Obama=2. Spouse=-8.
McCain=4. Spouse=3.
Clinton=8 Spouse=6.

While she might not have said the word 'boon' the facts are that Bill's administration pushed NAFTA through Congress. It lost us a lot of good jobs here. Hillary didn't speak out against it until recently. Those are the facts.
Obama spoke out against it publicly before it was signed, as he thought it was a bad deal for American workers and it would only benefit corporate profits. Obama was right.

I live in Florida and we don't want the votes counted. There is a need for campaigning and that's why candidates do it with "machines" & big budgets. Campaigning gets your message out and assists undecideds in deciding and galvanizes the strength of your supporters. It is not our fault that Florida votes don't count but the only way to make it fair is to have a revote. Many many many people did not vote because it didn't count, not many ppl are going to take time out of their work day, picking up their kids from daycare, etc etc if they have been told their vote won't count. So really if they would make Florida's votes count a lot of ppl would be pissed and hurt because they were told the vote didn't matter when in fact it would.

As for Michigan, Barack wasn't even on the ballot so why would that be fair?

I am pleased to see that Hillary fans finally have something to harp on. lol.

The article did not say that the quote was wrong. It says that it could be misleading. Obama's campaign just needs to clarify further. It seems that you guys are really clutching at straws here, attempting to find fault in the Obama campaign. lol.

Good News on the Horizon? Al Gore will be the party's Nominee with Hillary his running mate. Obama heads back to the Senate for 12 more years to gain the necessary experience and try to establish a record of accomplishment. Sweet justice for Big Al. With the 2000 election taken from him, Al Gore can fix the foreign and domestic mess created by this president. God Bless America and God Bless Al Gore for his continuing service to the Nation. Happy Days are Here Again.

Boy, there certainly is a lot of hate on this board. Obama's campaign was probably a bit overzelous on this one. This happens in the heat of an election. Hope they correct the flyer. He is already the leader so does not need to stoop to Hillary's level. I admire the fact that so far he has been able to keep himself and his campaign above the fray. When we look to the positive side we can acheive a lot more.

Another example of hypocrisy from the man who claims "the same old politics just won't do." This guy points the finger at everyone else and then engages in a more egregious version of the behavior he decries. He is the worst--arrogant and cocky. I can't imagine watching him for 4-8 years. He's like a left wing George Bush. Same crap, different party. Yuck.

MOMETUM? (SIC?) WHICH WAY OBAMA? IN REALITY BACKWARDS OR FORWARD? OBAMA WILL NOT DEBATE CLINTON BECAUSE HE CANNOT COME UP WITH ANSWERS BY HIMSELF. HE NEEDS A SPEECH WRITER AND THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED IN A DEBATE. YEAH, HE IS A FINE ORATOR. HE CAN DISH OUT WHAT PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR. BUT MAKE HIM TELL THE TRUTH AND STATE THE REAL FACTS AND HE STUTTERS, AND LOOKS LIKE A BUMBLING PERSON WHO HAS LOST HIS WAY. McCAIN WILL THRASH HIM IN NOVEMEBR. I AM A DEMOCRAT BUT WILL EITHER SIT IT OUT OR VOTE FOR McCAIN IN NOVEMBER.I WILL NOT BE A PART OF A WILDFIRE SPEAD OF FALSE HOPE AND WIND BAG. REMEMBER GEORGE BUSH THE IDIOT WAS A CHEERLEADER AT YALE. OBAMA ACTS LIKE A CHEER LEADER NOW. TO BAD THE NEWS MEDIA HAS CAUSED THIS CLOSE RACE AND ARE NOT BIG ENOUGH TO TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE WRONGS THEY HAVE CREATED. WE SUFFER? DEBATE HILLARY OBAMA. WHAT IS THE MATER WITH ONE ON ONE DEBATES? YOU PLAY THE PART OF SOMETHING GREAT , SO SHOW US YOUR GREATNESS.

Listen to all of you on this blog. What anger and nastiness. Who would want to run for office and face the barrage of negatives. Why would anyone want to face this? Barack will be the next President and just face it and lt's move on to heal this country and correct the mistakes from the previous Clinton and Bush dynasties. Let's get a fresh face in and not OLD McCain

That's an interesting lead. Sounds like an Obama oops! If Hillary's campaign had made taken this step it would read: Hillary knowingly and intentionally issued a personal attack on Obama issuing clearly false and misleading statements about something he said about something he didn't sign into law a long time ago!

But noooo the misogynist protective press taps O on the wrist with a maybe he did something a little bit wrong but he had a good reason to misstate what he repeatedly misstated and never apologized for or acknowledge that he misstated what was clearly an ever so slight oversight on the part of his campaign and not him personally. Ok?

Well, Change Man - change NAFTA will ya? Where is his stand on NAFTA, what's he done about? Where is the the bill he proposes to introduce to stop it or change it? Why or why not? Speak up my good man. After those ever so inspiring hopeful sermons, it's Monday morning and we'll have to go to work. Are you ready? Or didn't you have a chance to "copy" your "work" from Hillary! Copy her health plan, it's a winner!

Obama's supporters believe that any attack to Obama is a fabrication of Clinton.
How naive!
