Political Punch

A Canadian perspective:
CTV reported yesterday that they have optained a document that confirms meetings between Goolsbee and the Canadian Consul General in Chicago. I don't have links to this information but heard it on our CBC TV news.
Also, I hear Goolsbee denying that they contacted Canada. He is technically correct. I believe Canada contacted them. From there the story is the same we were told the soothing lying words.

Sen. Obama's Senior Aide did call Hon. Michael Wilson and stated before the OHIO debate that "whatever Sen. Obama may state tonight... about cancelling NAFTA...IS JUST CAMPAIGN RHETORIC."... Exact quote. CheckCTV story.

CTV's story about Obama's flip flop is correct. Lloyd Robertson is a highly respected broadcaster and so is the Reporter who broke the story, Tom Clark.

Sen. Obama's Senior Aide did call Hon. Michael Wilson and stated before the OHIO debate that "whatever Sen. Obama may state tonight... about cancelling NAFTA...IS JUST CAMPAIGN RHETORIC."... Exact quote. CheckCTV story.

Obama wrote in his book that he is "a blank screen and people of widely different views project what they want to believe onto him".

Imagine having a blank screen become President.
It'd be like Reagan without the ventriloquist dummy. Hillary Clinton
may be right: It will be "change that you can XEROX"!

Shame on Obama.

Where is the truth with this guy?

BUSTED! ----"JUST WORDS" BARACK????
He claims he doesn't take money from lobbyists--But Public Citizen and the LA Times have discovered--Ooops! --he does (including a sweet little valentine from the nation's largest nuclear producer, Exelon of $160,000--)
He claims his health plan covers all Americans--when it really only covers children. He tells voters in Idaho "Folks I'm not gonna take away your guns" but has been a supporter of gun control for 20 years.
What's up with that?
This guy has flip-flopped so many times--he's like the African-American Bart Connor.
President of the H Law Review? Yeah, great--but not for your grades Barry--but as the 'compromise' candidate when no one could agree to the more qualified candidates--after 19 votes.
Obama went to New Orleans to unveil his plan for post-Katrina recovery--but it's plagiarized from Clinton's plan released 7 months ago.
Not cool. Is that what they taught you at Harvard, Barack?
Now, we find he's talking out of both sides of his mouth of NAFTA--?? What a SURPRISE! Thank you Canadian TV--at least your media are still acting like journalists not syncophants.

what a phony!!!! why is obama's campaign reaching out to canada??

"I am glad I won't vote for him.
Good luck convincing the rest of the USA to vote for him in the fall.
Nobody from Hillary's voters will ever have the insanity to vote for Obama we will all go to Mccain...keep chugging away with your hope change tour...likely it will end soon. Thank GOD!"

You can count this Hillary supporter in. I know countless others who will not vote for this con if he gets the nomination. I am educated too and know a phony when I see one. I'm not against blacks either, I am black.

Obama the phony. I am confident Texas and Ohio will pull Hillary through this election!!! And Pennsylvania too!!

There are some speculation that the Obama campaign money is coming from Middle East. Money was donated using different names in small chunk. Be careful before you vote.

William Ayers,Louis Farrakan,Reverand Wright,and Antonin Rezko.Look these people up check out Fox news.How long can Obama sit back and have people who believe that America needs to be distroyed supporting his campaign.

as a lifelong dem who's voted for every dem since mcgovern, i had already decided i will vote for mccain this fall. this story is just one of the many, many, many reasons we should all do the same. i don't know if the fainting, chanting ones will wake up before november, but i firmly believe the adult ones will eventually realize they've been "hoodwinked and bamboozled." but even if they don't, roughly half of democrats have already figured it out. so, unless hillary somehow pulls it off, congrats, president mccain.

This is what happens when Karl Rove gives tips on fox news(last night) on how Sen. Clinton can win the Democratic Party nomination. Today on fox news Rush Limbaugh was campaigning for Sen.Clinton. Is Clinton a Republican now? If she isn't, why is she getting all this Republican support? Karl Rove and Rush Limbaugh, I guess something fishy is going on. She should "reject" and "denounce" those clowns.

How come this Obama bombshell is not covered by the likes of Chris Mathews, CBS evening news, ABC evening news etc etc. Imagine the same flap falls onto the Clinton or McCain campaigns. It will be "Breaking News Alert". Someone is lying here. Maybe the Canadians are lying, but why? What a good start for the Obama "Presidency", first people to offend is our ally from the North. - Yeah they lied about the story, don't they. Of course, Goolsbee is being ousted as the Obama campaign point man of this story, maybe he is lying, maybe not. But why is his name being singled out here? Something is not adding up. Assume Goolsbee did say something like that being reported to the Canadians, then is he going freelancing himself or he get the vibes from Obama that whatever he says in Ohio now is JUST WORDS...very interesting story here. Maybe Obama is a typical politician afterall, he will promise one thing and does another. Too bad, the devotees of the Church of Obama will never see the light. As a HRC supporter, this story is yet another proof that there is much to learn about this Obama character, he could be the Jim Jones of my party.

How can we seriously elect a president, whose middle name "Hussein", is out of bounds? Have the American people gone to the deep end in this election?

I have a feeling that people will be prosecuted if they ever mention Barack Obama middle name. What is devilish about Hussein? The former leader of Jordan is King Hussein and what's wrong with that?

If mentioning Obama's middle name is so offensive, then he needs to change that.
Until then, Obama's legal name is "Barack Hussein Obama". I do not see any problem with the name. Tell Obama to lighten up.

TomJ "There's a difference between 'renegotiate' and 'trash'. Don't any of you remember all the treaties Bush pulled out of unilaterally in the early days of his presidency? He was so contemptuous of other countries he couldn't be bothered to discuss, renegotiate, or work things out in any way. I could understand Canada wanting to know if this was going to be a repeat - and of course if isn't."

Wow, TomJ, way to spin...badly. Sure, the Canadians aren't concerned about BO's public assurances that he will "renegotiate" NAFTA to the USA's advantage. Sure, they're only worried he'll pull a "George Bush." Yeah, that's the ticket.

NAFTA has winners and losers, but it has been a net plus for the US (and Canada and Mexico). Barack Obama (and to an extent, both Clintons) are demonizing, demagoging and scapegoating NAFTA to pander to the losers and protectionist unions.

And, no, I don't remember "all" the treaties Bush pulled out of unilaterally. I remember he unsigned Kyoto which had not been ratified and never would have been ratified by the Senate. What exactly would have been the point of keeping the agreement stuffed in the drawer where Bill Clinton threw it and ignored? And I remember an arms control treaty that had been formed with an union that no longer exists.

This Stinks of Right Wing Attack machine.

I don't know why everybody can't see right thru this. Look, Bush/Canada/NAFTA, etc. they're all in bed together. How soon we all forget that Bush was courting that soon-to-be new Canadian Prime Minister just 2 years ago in 2006. The first Conservative Prime Minister.

From Wikipedia:
Harper became Prime Minister after his party won a minority government in the January 2006 federal election. He is the first ever Prime Minister from his current political party, and the first since 1993 from any "Conservative" party, following twelve years of government by the Liberal Party.

You all know Bush doesn't court anyone unless there's something in it for him. This is just the start of the Republican Attack machine. I hope Obama's supporters and would be supporters have thicker skin than this. Again - there's no proof, just rheteric and who's better at rheteric than anyone? You can answer that yourself with ease.

I guess everyone started to remember NAFTA also involves oil and natural gas from Canada.

CTV has a great reputation and Prime Minister Harper is as close to an honest politician as you are going to get.

**** cover up *****

I will never believe it and never buy it.

Obama is a hack and Thank God people are finding out he is a phony doing shady deals..

hahaha Obama you are almost out. I don't care about the millions you have...TRUST AND RESPECT is not STORE BOUGHT its earned and that comes with experience which you LACK

Vishous,

What do you expect Goolsbee to say now that he has been outed and has had time to talk with the Obama campaign. Ha!

COVER-UP

Next!

This is from this morning in the New York Observer, with a person who spoke to the Obama camapaign.
Goolsbee Denies Canadian NAFTA Story
by Jason Horowitz | February 29, 2008

I just spoke very briefly to Austan Goolsbee, the Obama campaign economic advisor who CTV has identified as the aide who purportedly suggested to the Canadian government officials that Obama’s harsh rhetoric against NAFTA was less than heartfelt. I asked Goolsbee if any such meeting or call had taken place.

“It is a totally inaccurate story,” he said. “I did not call these people and I direct you to the press office.”

The Obama campaign, and Obama himself, have also said the story isn't accurate, but have mostly avoided specifics about the call itself.

The Clinton campaign, correctly sensing an opportunity to make hay of this in labor-centric Ohio, is apparently unsatisfied with those denials, and will have a conference call on the CTV report at noon.

Also another denial from the Obama campaign.

Meanwhile, Obama spokesperson Bill Burton also denies this latest round, via email:

This story is not true. There was no one at any level of our campaign, at any point, anywhere, who said or otherwise implied Obama was backing away from his consistent position on trade.

Its interesting to see How all the arabs are rallying and raising money for him even though he is a "Christian" very interesting. I think they are trying to gain political strength to change US policies and to gain citizen ship. He is will never put USA first.. It will always be ARABS first

RJ wrote: "Both stories are based on anonymous sources (one by *canadian* tv i might add), both stories have elicited vehement denials from all involved. So why is this story still rumbling, but we take McCain for his word?"

Pre-S. Canada is our largest trading partner, so expect them to keep on top of this story.

Obama's campaign vehemently denies any conversation took place, meanwhile Austan Goolsbee and Georges Rioux vehemently cannot confirm or deny that any conversation took place. This is a tactic in politics called 'lying.' It's extraordinarily popular, owing to its extraordinary effectiveness. The trick is, you tell a lie that 51% of the voters want to hear.

For instance, "I'm going to withdraw our troops from Iraq." Remember when the Democrats, including Senator Obama, captured both chambers of congress with that mandate? Remember when they pulled our troops out of Iraq, or even really tried? Likewise, NAFTA is not going anywhere (nor should it go anywhere) - Obama knows this, and he sent his top economic adviser to make sure Canada knows it, too. If you don't like it, you can always vote for Nader.

He is a hack and his wife is worse, I am glad and England are joining in warning us about this fraud. I think he will prioritize muslims for obama first and the rest of the american's going to be last.

He will never defend USA. This guy is a radical closet muslim... I don't believe it for a minute that his a true Christian. He just converted for politics. I think he is wrapped around the Saudis and will bring harm to AMERICA.

Carmen - Actually two countries, even the UK is warning about him.

Now whether or not the Canadian story is true, Obama will do nothing to NAFTA, we all know that, he will not be able to!

Our media houses should be ashamed that the foreign press is more open and concerned about who we put in the WH than they are.

Its really sad that it took the Canadians to be so open about Obama and not picking a side with this NAFTA issue, what does that say about our press when they went so far to say Obama camp was not guilty after only taking it from one source.

Hats off for CNTV for standing their ground and calling it as it is.

It is really SAD THAT IT TAKES ANOTHER COUNTRY TO STEP IN AND STOP THIS MONSTER (OBAMA). Even if Obama wins the nomination, he WILL NEVER EVER WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION AGAINST McCain.

Obama and his campaign thinks that they can BUY EVERYONE BUT NOT EVERYONE IS FOR SALE.

Re: the Canadian connection.

CTV stands by its story. My only other comment for all those trying to make hay for Hillary here, is that she issued a denial just like Obama.

So why isn't she all over him on this....

Anti NAFTA rhetoric is a major plank in the Democratic platform regardless of candidate.

I think this one hurts them both. Badly.

Mark - He didn't do much in the IL senate -- which was under GOP control until 2002, when the majority went to Dems. And for the whole story on just HOW he got that stellar record?

TheRizzo. You said Hillary's people challenged CTV to reveal their source - do you have a link on that? I'd like to read it.

The rest of whay I said still stands this one's a Democrat killer either way.

When you don't stand behind what you say, they are just words. BO truly is all talk and no action...we cannot entrust the presidency to him because we have no idea what he stands for.

Hillary is clear, consistent and strong. We know exactly how she will help this country rebuild and we need her.

TX, OH, VT, RI, WY, Mississippi, and all the rest, please correct the mistakes some of us have made. Vote Hillary.

'just words' on NAFTA from Sen Obama it seems, no intention of keeping his "word" to the American people, esp the voters in OH, what other words were 'just lies'

99% of the Corporate Owned Media is promoting Obama and concealing negative info about him.

IIRC - ABC News is the only network to reveal the Rezko mess and expose Obama's "judgment."

Apparently, ABC News is the only network to expose Obama and the Canadians.

Watch Fox News, they won't cover it up, trust me.

"A Canadian perspective:

Hillary Clinton's campaign is also reported to have made contact with the Canadians. She's not going to say a word. I think the Democrats just lost the election."

Bill, her campaign came out instantly on Wednesday when this story first came out and said it did not happen, and that CTV had blanket immunity from her campaign to expose the supposed supporter of hers that provided that information.

To date CTV has not released a name of the Clinton camp even though they told them to do it if they had it. CTV however did come out with the Obama senior economic adviser Goolsbee.

If CTV had a legit name for the Clinton camp they would have released it at the same time. They did not.

No one in Clinton's campaign contacted the Canadians!!

Obama is a con.

To any of the supporters of Mr. Obama - do not assume that the only possible reason anyone does not support Obama is because they can't handle a black president. Newsflash - Obama is bi-racial , not black. Maybe we just don't trust him, not unlike your blind faith in all matters that are anti-Bush. Please.

A Canadian perspective:

Hillary Clinton's campaign is also reported to have made contact with the Canadians. She's not going to say a word. I think the Democrats just lost the election.

But ask yourself this, Harper is very very cozy with George Bush, so if the Canadians "leak" this, then deny it, they have learned their lessons well.

Harper is anti Kyoto, pro NAFTA, pro Afghanistan, wanted to go into Iraq (but was outvoted) and has a vested interest in the political demise of Barack Obama.

I can't imagine why anyone finds this surprising. The swooning support this man has is a piece of the same sort of double dealing deception.

Obama's recurring claim is to be a post-partisan reach across the aisle candidate and President, a moderate, a centrist. Yet, his liberal supporters are no doubt counting on him repudiating any sort of centrism when it comes to actually governing -- whether the issue be Supreme Court appointments, gay marriage, abortion rights, tax policy, withdrawal from Iraq ... strike that ... retreat / surrender ... in Iraq or any other issue. These people full yexpect ... indeed will demand ... that President Obama will repudiate any suggestion of centrism for pure unabashed FDR / LBJ ACLU liberalism.

The only surprise here is that the door swung the other way first.

Yet there is not one real world fact supporting such a claim by the Senate's most liberal member.

It figures that it would take the Canadian media to dig out the truth......how sad is that!!

Rebecka,

On the tv, not the website.

Well, the good news here is that Obama is probably lying about his plans to retreat and leave the Iraqis to their fate too.

What a tool.

I am glad I won't vote for him.

Good luck convincing the rest of the USA to vote for him in the fall.

Nobody from Hillary's voters will ever have the insanity to vote for Obama we will all go to Mccain...keep chugging away with your hope change tour...likely it will end soon. Thank GOD!

Well so much for your Messiah. He's been exposed as the empty-suit phony that he is.

And it just keeps adding up. The deeper you look at this guy, the fewer people will faint at his rock concerts.

USVet says, "CNN confirmed the story this morning. CNN reports that the Obama camapign is refusing to answer questions concerning Goolsbee and has no comment now over the entire matter."

Really???
Cnn's Web Site is mum on the issue. this is a list of their current stories:
Election coverage
Iraq issue big in Ohio?
Iraq issue is back
Clinton raises $35M in February
Turnout numbers trouble GOP
RNC decries use of "Hussein"
Clinton unveils child poverty plan
Lewis changes support to Obama
McCain, Obama exchange harsh words

Maybe you can come up with something that isn't so easily checked???

Well, the good news here is that Obama is probably lying about his plans to retreat and leave the Iraqis to their fate too.

What a tool.

Why is Austan not answering the question whether he talked to them or not?

Why are we to be swift boated out of this scandal. We should be aware and know the facts of this story. This shows how the Obama campaign do their deals.

I SMELL A ROTTEN EGG and nobody is touching this.

The blogs and Canada are fired up over this but the MSM is just content saying well they are not answering....WHAT!!!!

WOW AND NOBODY IS GOING TO QUESTION HIM ANY FURTHER

HILLARY WAS ATTACKED ON THE DEBATE OF: DID YOU SEND OUT THE PHOTO?

WHY CAN'T THE MEDIA HOLD AND PRESS OBAMA ON THIS

CLEARLY THEY ARE LYING AND THIS IS A HUGE SCANDAL!!!

Think about it

Al Sharpton, Rezko, Jesse Jackson and Oprah will run NAFTA his Chicago buddies

CNN confirmed the story this morning. CNN reports that the Obama camapign is refusing to answer questions concerning Goolsbee and has no comment now over the entire matter.

COVERUP-COVERUP-COVERUP

Austan Goolsbee is a senior policy advisor to Senator Barack Obama, with the specialty being in economics.

Goolsbee is also ducking the questions.

This IS breaking news.

So why is Austan Goolsbee not coming out and rejecting/denouncing this... why is Obama not addressing this at his rally.

What is he hiding from. Dirty tricks keep them coming Hussein, hope and change hopefully never in our life time

Hillary, if you didn't do the same thing, are you listening???

If you didn't do the same thing, you really need to jump on this before Tuesday.

Obama said he is not a CEO remember. So this is how he and his aides would run the country. or ruin the country.

Hmmmm.... The Obama campaign ducking press questions. That's what happened to me a long time ago, before I went partisan for Clinton. Please direct any question to the campaign headquarters. In other words, Mr. Goolsbee, shut up.

Don't you just hate when journalists do their job? It can be such a drag for old style Chicago political campaigns like Obama's trying to look like a different kind of politics.

Now no one is surprised to have Mr. Goolsbee possibly talking to Canada. Trying to hide that fact once the story is out is another matter. However, the problem really comes in when Obama is obviously telling Ohio voters one thing to get their votes, while his econ guy is assuring a NAFTA partner that nothing is going to change if he gets into the White House.

Truth is that NAFTA isn't going to be easy to modify, whether it's Clinton or Obama in the White House. But the bait and switch politics, in which Obama seems obviously engaged, is not the image he's running on. It's not the message either, and now Obama's campaign team is stiff arming journalists who want to ask questions about what's unwinding to try to find out the truth.

Who knows, maybe this is just a big misunderstanding. The only way to know what's going on is for Obama to answer the questions. That his campaign seems unwilling to adds yet another chapter to this story. Not denying the Goolsbee part of the story is the other.

The Audacity of Lying.
The Barack H. Obama campaign is caught red-handed in a lie.

While Barack was blasting NAFTA on the stump-- His campaign was calling Canada and telling them not to worry- it was just talk.

Right on Spock!

Obama is the worst politician and dirtiest!!

Tom J: exactly the point but Obama was not suppose to act like Washington politics. He got caught acting like George Bush.

That's the problem he has been saying I am not like the other politicians and now he got caught....

HUSSEIN Obama is a pretty big phony. "Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies."

Barack Obama's new slogan -LIES We Can Believe In!

There's a difference between 'renegotiate' and 'trash'. Don't any of you remember all the treaties Bush pulled out of unilaterally in the early days of his presidency? He was so contemptuous of other countries he couldn't be bothered to discuss, renogotiate, or work things out in any way. I could understand Canada wanting to know if this was going to be a repeat - and of course if isn't.

Obama's been caught in a clear and direct lie. This is spreading like wildfire throughout the media.

CNN is saying that its his economic adviser Austan Goolsbee who mades the calls. They tried asking him questions but he referred them to campaign HQ.

I guess its picking up. They also said that CTV confirmed it was Austan Goolsbee who had the conversations.

Anyways this will be a blow to his campaign

I can't trust a candidate who telegraphs his real position to a foreign government and then dissembles in a nationally televised debate

I just saw CNN mention in

Really glad the main stream news outlets are starting to pick up on this. Especially with the releasing of the names, and when considering the high level of officials named, this is a big blow that needs to be dug into and reported on.

This is the kind of thing that matters to the people of Ohio, and I would argue shows a lot more about Obama on the whole about his character issues.

The fact they refused to deny the story and pointed all questions to the HQ shows that the Obama campaign told the adviser beforehand that if for some reason they do out his name, what to do.

Wow, this should be renamed Haters of Obama Board! Are you guys serious? What lie did Obama tell exactly? Did the report say HE HIMSELF had the conversation? Was this report even confirmed as true? (NO, IT HAS ACTUALLY BEEN DENIED BY BOTH SIDES). Wake up people & stop letting your own insecurities get in the way of what could be a great thing for this country!

When will Matt Drudge report this. All I see is smears over Hillary and only good news for Barack obama.

Wow!

Goolsbee is the man that that spoke to canada officials. This makes me sick nor the media or DRUDGEreport is making an issue of this.. This should be known to the American People!!

Here is the proof OBama's people did talk to them...lying is not going to get you far Obama

Obama Adviser Who Talked To Canada Named

I realize Obama's campaign can still claim that one of his advisers went rogue in contacting the Canadians about his NAFTA rhetoric, but to me, this is game, set and match to CTV.

On Wednesday, CTV reported that a senior member of Barack Obama's campaign called the Canadian embassy within the last month saying that when Senator Obama talks about opting out of the free trade deal, the Canadian government shouldn't worry. The operative said it was just campaign rhetoric not to be taken seriously.

The Obama campaign told CTV late Thursday night that no message was passed to the Canadian government that suggests that Obama does not mean what he says about opting out of NAFTA if it is not renegotiated.

However, the Obama camp did not respond to repeated questions from CTV on reports that a conversation on this matter was held between Obama's senior economic adviser — Austan Goolsbee — and the Canadian Consulate General in Chicago.

Earlier Thursday, the Obama campaign insisted that no conversations have taken place with any of its senior ranks and representatives of the Canadian government on the NAFTA issue. On Thursday night, CTV spoke with Goolsbee, but he refused to say whether he had such a conversation with the Canadian government office in Chicago. He also said he has been told to direct any questions to the campaign headquarters.

If Goolsbee had not talked to officials in the consulate, it seems likely that his answer would have been, "No, I didn't talk to them."

Go Canada for showing what clueless leader we are nominating?

Hahahah if Canada is too hard to establish policies with then I would hate to see what he will do to Pakistan?

I'm from Canada and this was all over the morning news and papers. I guess they are really mad at Obama for telling one of the high ranked politicians what he said on the debate is just rhetoric and that he would never pull USA out of NAFTA. Apparently he told 2 diff. stories to 2 different audiences about NAFTA.

I'm just reporting that Obama has flaws, and maybe you guys should look into this because I'm getting the feeling he doesn't know what he is doing

Obama and Rezko are twins. just look how he handled NAFTA.

Keep playing the victim and race card Obama it will get you far. buuuuuh poor baby!!!!

If you as you claim are READY and RIGHT from day 1, then why did you make this back door deal with Canada?

Why did you lie?
Why did you say one thing on the debate and another to Canada?
Why can't you be held accountable?
Why do you think you can lead this nation?
What makes you so qualified to be the next President if you can't even address a simple thing as NAFTA?
When will you wake up and realized you have duped USA and willingly withdraw your candidacy. You are the most inexperienced candidate to run for presidency. The mistakes you are making are big but the MEDIA will never say that. It will be covered up.

I will never give you my vote

God Bless America

Wow. There are a lot of anti-Obama sockpuppets on this blog today. Waaah! I'm afraid of a President who doesn't look like me!

Noooo never never will I vote for this man! The mistakes and ticking off Canada is not something you do on a election!

Wow! I'm done and hope and pray he will never become a president!

President Barack Hussein Obama

HONESTY, TRUST, INTEGRITY AND EXPERIENCE,

I as a voter will look for in the fall. You today have shown to me that you lack all 4.

You are a lose canon that will jeopardize the future of USA if we give you the keys to the white house.

NAFTA was such a hot topic for Obama, what happened? I guess Canada happened, did you think Canada would be quiet just like the MEDIA here? I guess not, this makes you a fraud and a clown. Geez you are running for president showed the worst in a politician. The fact that you told a BOLD lie to us in the debate and then promised Canada that ooh well its just "Rhetoric, it will never happen" tells me what a two faced man you are.

How is the Master Spinner David Axelrod going to handle this? Whom can he blame for his incompetent leader...who can he deflect this scandal on... Nobody but yourself.

Obama has shown to the American people that we can't trust him, we can't trust him on foreign policies, and most importantly that he is not for Change, he for getting himself elected and not really for the people.

Making big time mistakes like this in a big arena, displays your character and your association with Rezko. Its clearer and clearer to me everyday who you are. Now I understand why the media is covering up your background and people you hung out with in Chicago.

I wish we would now more about you and peal off the onion because inside there is a very shady leader who will do and say everything to please people. This is not what AMERICA wants nor will ever accept as their President.

I will be very curious to see how you will take on this story..Are you going to say this was a "bone headed thing" well Obama you said I am ready from DAY ONE to LEAD this nation: my answer NO!
you are not and never will be.

Go back to Rezko and your friends in Chicago. Your insight that you boast about is not lying to the American people and Canada. Go back to Chicago and grow character and honesty

I hope Obama won't use the race card or the I'm a victim of anti-muslim smears etc.

I hope he won't cover this story by claiming he is a victim of racism instead of disclosing what a sleazy politician he is

Obama will not make a good President.

Being unable to make a deal with Canada and then lie to USA and them, proves he is two faced and a weak leader.

Look at his record in Illinois he could not stand for anything just sat there and clicked a button.

If you want to earn the title of President Barack Hussein Obama this is not the way to get into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. You are not trusted and yep this looks like REZKO politics as usual

I guess when all else fail ask MSNBC and CNN to cover up the story and tie it into being Hillary's fault.

I think that's the best strategic move, find a way to blame your inexperience, your lack of accountability, your lack of leadership, infact everything on Hillary.

The MSM will join you and the people will never hear another day of this story.

Cover up Cover up..there is only so much you can cover up the cracks of your inexperiece to run this nation. If you are all about 'open dialogue' with the enemies and the world, well this proves you are incompetent.

Barack Hussein Obama you are a Chicago Politician going for the highest office. I' scared to think what you will do when you have POWER TO COVER UP STORIES and DEALS and with whom will you make deals with.

BIG FLOP sir.
