Obama- Zero Experience Matters

Harvard Lawyer?

No.

He never argued a single case in a court of law.

Constitutional Law Professor?

Not according to the U of Chicago.

Obama was a Lecturer who never wrote a single article. Lecturers normally write articles too, but not Obama.

Illinois Legislator?

Not so much. He only passed legislation one year....and it was all written by other people. Again, he took credit for other people's hard work and moved on.

Senator?

Where's the beef? He was in the Senate one year before he started running for President.

Obama's never done anything, for any community. His preacher was a black leader and Obama tossed him out of his train once he was done using him.

Obama has no experience and no character. His church is not what he described and he just threw his own minister out like yesterday's garbage.

We are at war, and in the middle of a financial crisis. We need leadership not a pumped up resume, a lot of hot gas, and a treacherous ability to toss out his own chosen horrible associates.

Obama would have you rip 2 stars from our beautiful American flag.

Obama won't even count active duty military from Florida or Michigan.

How can a guy who wants the country to salute a 48 star flag and throws his pretty crazy preacher to the dogs expect us to respect him?

God Bless our 50 United States of America.

He should have stood by his preacher too. He sat in those pews, gave that man $22,000, copied his sermon for his best selling book, used him for his 2006 speech at the DNC, and signed an oath to his value system.

He had that preacher marry him and baptise his kids.

Reverend Wright was a mess......but he was Obama's mess for 20 years.

Stand by your mess. I don't know if it's worse that he's so disloyal or that he chose such a church to begin with.

Either way. His character defaults are worse than Reverend Wright's by far....stand by Your Man Obama.

What's worse, the guy who would have a preacher like Louis Farrakhan? Or a guy who would dispose of that preacher after using him for 20 years? Don't vote for either guy.

Obama went on and on about his minister forever. He copycated his sermon for one of his books and said I'm a Christian and you can tell from my church.

Now the minister turns out to have a strange belief system with a lot of terrible things to say about almost everybody.

What's worse....a guy who would turn traitor on his own minister of 20 years. A guy who he was calling his "uncle" and his "mentor" one week and then totally disowns him the next?

Obama tossed his crazy uncle out of the train after he got done using him.

If Obama could make someone feel bad for Reverend Farrakhan, there is something really traitorous and wrong about Obama.

I find it funny that none of the local politicians on the Dem/lib side and none of the Dem/lib Senators/congressman want to be associated with neither Obama or Clinton.

remember when the campaigning began, the Dem/libs stated they were afraid of Clinton winning the nomination for the libs because it would hurt them!

Pretty bad that the Dems/Lib politicians do not like their own front runners! So why should we!!

rs,
Edward Said wasn't a PLO leader. He was a professor of literature. Are the attacks on Obama really going to remain this stupid?

This is silly -- the Mississippi 1st is a heavily conservative district that went for G.W. Bush in '04 by 30 points. Of course Travis Childers is distancing himself from Sen. Obama. He would be distancing himself from ANY national Democratic figure (save maybe someone like fmr. La. Sen. John Breaux or Miss. Rep. Gene Taylor -- hardly liberal boogeymen).

They said Bill Clinton couldn't be elected. They said the same thing about JFK. If Clinton is the nominee there will be an army of freelance Hillary-haters waiting to step up to the plate to do the grunt work. She's had almost no negative press coverage recently because the GOP knows she's unlikely to be the nominee. Don't be deluded into thinking she's somehow immune from attack.

Childers? Obama? Ooh! Ooh! I LOVE playing Six Degrees of Separation!!! Those Republicans always play the best Party games! Can we do Charades next? Please? Please? I want Bush to dress up in that flight jacket again. And Karaoke - we HAVE to do Karaoke! Everyone wants to see McCain do that "Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb bomb Iran" thing again. Then Pin the Tail on the Donkey. This is such a FUN Party! Do we get cake and ice cream and balloons too?

We all know Obama made critical errors. But, he did not:
- sponsor unregulated trade deals(NAFTA)
-- massive unemployment
- authorize war in Iraq
-- 4000 brave soldiers died
and on on ...
He instead, oppose NAFTA and Iraq war.
OBAMA is the true patriot.

HRC CAN NOT BE TRUSTED.

sounds like childers is smarter than a lot of politicians. he knows the sure way to lose an election is to be associated with obama.

if dean, pelosi, and the rest of the crooked "leaders" of the dem party don't figure this out and make obama withdraw, we'll not only have a republican white house but also a republican house and a republican senate.

there are only two good things about that - obama would be finished forever and pelosi would lose her speakership.

"We may lose the presidency and both houses because of Obama."

Axelrod and Kerry and Pelosi, you mean?

The tender candidate looked and sounded SEDATED yesterday. Hopefully he disappears.

The RNC has purchased half-million dollars worth of negative ads so far. They are going to swift-boating democratic candidates all over the country, the ads feature Wright and Obama. We may lose the presidency and both houses because of Obama.

If Obama doesn't run for President, he still will have relationship with Rev.Wright.

Q: why few Clinton attack ads?

A: why spend money when it's not needed?
OBAMA is the current leader and easy target - Although the tactic is not a good one & easily tossed aside.

I'd suggest a cleaner fight at this point - since mudslinging really doesn't do much good - especially when it doesn't have much to go on.

We really need to get focused on why we need to vote for someone not why not to vote for someone. The issues please - that are affecting most, if not all of us - Democrat and Republican and Independent [aka the rest of us not in the first two].

We need to look for what people bring to the table to help us - not this extra fluff. How one chooses to worship / or not - and who they're getting the message from - and what someone they know did during the candidate's childhood isn't important today - people change.

Lets move forward, not stay mired in the mud - lets look at the proposed changes and how we might play a role in helping to bring them about. The changes that need to be made are not all going to come from government. Many need to be changed from the people - taking an active role - pushing for those changes - in insurance, in work, in what we purchase.

Push Walmart and others not to buy from China and third world countries - don't shop there - get others to do the same - or only but american goods they do sell. write to walmart and get them to change their buying habits. The same goes for Target and other places you may buy things from.

If you have problems with oil - become a shareholder and buy gas from only one vendor. Organize / Join forces with others to do the same. Make your voices heard. (When they make profits, you'll at least get some of it back in dividends.)

All talk and no action - is part if what got us here. Complaining with no action is a waste of time and energy. Talk is cheap, action speaks louder than words.

A revolution is at hand - it can be peaceful - and orderly. Many have taken the first step toward being heard - register and vote. There are many other ways [non-destructive means] to get things done - make a change.

Change is also usually painful for most things. It usually comes at a price. What are you willing to do to make change happen? What are you willing to give up to make things happen that you feel need to change?

As a past Democratic President said, while campaigning for president ...
Don't ask what the country can do for you .... ask what you can do to improve the conditions you have problems with?

Yes it is true what Questioner said, check out also article Obama’s African Hubris

Obama just denounced his pastor and he think they will not have the same relationship anymore.
He said he did not him as person like this..blahh..blah,,blah..
Just keep the video tape he talked yesterday .Once he becomes the President of US his pastor will be at the WH every single day and even has his own room at the WH.

at least, Melissa, some people are OPEN to change..... like HILLARY CLINTON!

It's called "GROWING" and Hillary has.... into a wonderfully strong, bright, knowledgeable,woman who can think on her toes and speak without benefit of teleprompter.

I value these traits and I will vote for her because of them. But before coming to this conclusion, I gave my choices a lot of consideration.... so that I am SURE that, for me, Hillary is definitely the RIGHT CHOICE!!!!!

Melissa -

1. Are you the same person you were a few years ago? Most people do change over time, depending on what they have to deal with/witness. It's convenient for you to say HRC's changes are an act, but I'd rather believe that people (especially those going through the kind of crucible HRC did) do change.

2. Promises / proposals are defined according to a set of conditions. If the conditions change, the outcome will of course change. Holding jobs/Buffalo against HRC ignores the impact of funding/priorities in a Republican administration/Congress, ignores domestic and global economic conditions, and ignores reality. It's not as if she put her programs in place and they didn't accomplish the goals; she couldn't put them all in place because of circumstances beyond her control.

3. A one-sided perspective on health care reform is particularly galling. HRC made mistakes (which she's acknowledged) but republicans/lobbyists also spent fair amount of time and money lining up in fierce opposition. Blame HRC if you want, but also blame everyone else involved who put their interests above the "general welfare". At least she made an effort, put up a fight, and -when it didn't work - worked on smaller but related objectives and kept plugging away at the issue.

Imagine, the US nation is being led towards the abyss by a bungling bush; and the focus is on the HARMLESS RHETORIC of an old Black man?
All because of America's racist obsession!

All any intelligent mind has to ask is, "How really harmful can mere rhetoric of Right be to ANY American?" Who is bruised?

It's not like Mr Right is making threats of harm against the nation or against individual Americans?

911 demonstrates to the world that Americans will lull itself to sleep with non-issues when real threat to the nation arises.

Americans will be fast asleep, lights out, "when the bridegroom cometh"

The risk associated with Mr. Bummer
is simply too high.

at least the republicans run a
reasonably democratic primary...

Folks, Mr. Obama is not presidential

"If Obama is anywhere mentioned on

Then you were never going to vote Dem in the first place, no matter who was on the ticket.

Lets face it folks, even if you think Obama is a secret commie fascist mutant space-man terrorist from Iran, and Clinton is well... I don't think some of the words I'd use would make it past the moderators... they've got nothing on the Slimefest 08 that is the current Republican party.

A vote for the Republicans is a vote to continue the Iraq war ad infinitim, to rob from the middle class and give to the rich, to keep Americans uninsured so long as it turns a profit for some fat shareholders, I could go on...

Tell me, honestly, do you think your preferred candidate stands for any of those things I just said? Do you honestly think the Democrat you hate so much stands for any of these things?

I despise the Clintons with the white hot intensity of a thousand exploding suns, but it'll be a cold day in hell before I'll vote Republican. TOTALLY the lesser of two evils there...

Mr. Obama's actions are highly reckless and
suspicous....IMHO... If
Hillary is not the nominee, I will
become a republican...

Obama throws more of his family
under the bus.... what a good guy...
does he think we are all idiots????

His stupidity is beyond description...

I am outraged...

"Seems like OBAMA'S PEOPLE ARE AFRAID OF FACTS! THEY like to post lies on the Internet IN OTHER PEOPLES NAMES.
That letter I posted IS VALID... AND DOCUMENTED.... AND SHOULD NOT BE IGNORED.

It is unfortunate that some people try to hide the truth by stealing the name of the original poster and replacing the content of the message with lies.

My name is Questioner... and I approve this message!

If Obama is anywhere mentioned on

never vote Dem again!!!!!!!!!!!

then i guess NAFTA is good with hillary and so is the WAR, and so is OBAMA who she was happy to be running with until he started to win!!! talk about flip flopping she doesnt even know what party she is in!

Mr. Obama denounces his pastor....

The hypocrisy of this man is beyond
description....

Rep Lois Capps is the mother-in-law of B.O. spokesperson Bill Burton...
so nice that she came out today as a Super for B.O.

Does this pass the smell test???

Doug - Chelsea's starting salary at McKinsey five years ago was in the neighborhood of $100K --- not unusual for a Stanford grad with a masters from Oxford going to work at a global consulting firm.

As for the usual litany of "illegal" things -- suggest your time may be better spent petitioning Congress for your share of the $70 million spent by Starr/Ray be reimbursed since clearly they were so incompetent as to head up a 6-yr investigation which turned up a horny president and a blue dress ... and nothing else! Don't forget to throw in some xtra $ for all the congressional investigations which similarly turned up ... nothing!

frisco girl ,
sexism is giving some one a vote that you dont like because she is a women!!! i am a women who wont vote for hillary im am not sexist and you have no right saying that about people you dont even know!!

Where was Barry on 9/11???

okay first of all i went to the website given for lauren davis and i counldnt find the letter ?

So Doug are you impersonating David Shuster now? Did you know sexism is bad? Just like racism is bad? Sexism seems to be okay with Obama supporters, just not sex out of marriage. And having friends that bomb the pentagon and police stations, and hurting the policemen working inside the police stations when the bomb goes off is okay. It's hard to understand what is okay in Obama world. One day Wright is okay, the next day, Wright is not okay. Obama is a flip flopper of major proportions. If Obama drops out of the race now, before the Rezko trial really gets interesting, he may save the democratic party from appearing more corrupt than the Republicans. But Obama won't do that - it's all about Obama. Not the American people.

Mr. Obama's ethics are far
below the Americans he is trying
to "save"// This whole campaign
is a nightmare......

Melissa - You brought up the war issue, I was merely pointing out all the ramifications of "getting out now." Since you clearly aren't prepared to discuss it, we'll drop it. If you're worried about the economy, tell me how Obama's proposed plans (identified costs exceed HRC's by about $100 billion) will be paid for? What's he giving up? What's highest priority so we know what the probable tradeoffs will be?

(PS - on the "screw em" comment - pls do remember that people in the room do remember the conversation differently, and that even the person who first wrote about it notes that:

-- He pointed out that everyone in that room back in '95 was angry about the Republicans taking over Congress. The only person who wasn't angry was Bill, who (as the HuffPo piece also explains) talked about the importance of reaching out to white southerners.
-- He noted that the Hillary from '94-'95 was a MUCH different person from the Hillary in Bill's second term. She had moved from ideological liberal to a pragmatic leader. He says his 2001 book, in fact, has a chapter on this transformation.
-- He is a Hillary Clinton supporter and has given Clinton money.

Check out this site: “One Man’s Thoughts”

This site provides “A Letter From Christian Missionaries in Africa.”

Thanks for sending out an alert about Obama.

We are living and working in Kenya for almost twelve years now and know his family (tribe) well. They are the ones who were behind the recent Presidential election chaos here.

Thousands of people have been displaced by election violence (over 350,000) and I don’t know the last count of the dead.

Obama under “friends of Obama” gave almost a million dollars to the opposition campaign who just happened to be his cousin, Raila Odinga, who is a socialist trained in East Germany. He has been trying to bring Kenya down for years and the last president threw him in prison for trying to subvert this country!

News that Sean Hannity will next bring up Obama's connections to Aiham Alsammarae, who has connections in Iraq with Rezko, and Rashid Khalidi, a former PLO leader. Also, Obama was connected with Edward Said, another PLO leader, in the late 1990's. The longer Obama stays in this race, the worse he makes it for ALL Democrats running for office. Nice to see that Michelle is out campaigning with him today! Politics of Political Expediency!!!

Chelsea has proven herself to be as manipulative as her parents. She refuses to answer tough questions. Refuses to talk to the media. You can't have it both ways. You can't go out there and pimp your mother and not answer questions.

BTW, how did she get a hedge fund job that pays her $200K a year? Is that hedge fund guy a Clinton donor and fundraiser? Well that's like an extra $200K in illegal campaign contributions in my mind.

But that's not surprising. The Clintons always do illegal things: Whitewater, Travelgate, Filegate, Cattle Futures, Madison S&L, Rose Law firm conflicts of interest, Paula Jones, Monica Lewinsky, etc.

The country has some troubles
but that is no reason to panic:
American's are too smart to let
Barry bring us down...

Vote Hillary 08!

This is worrisome for the Dems. To have candidates in must-win seats distancing themselves from your probable nominee, acting as if he were Dubya, is never a good thing. This is the new status quo for Obama. He's red meat for conservatives and moderates.

watching mr. obama and his drama
is good reality TV! When do
we get to vote him off!!

Doug, Obama supporters get a very bad reputation because of name callers like you. Do you think that slamming the only two term democratic president since FDR - that's 60 years ago and counting - helps the democratic party? Or are you just out to destroy it and the entire Clinton family, including Chelsea who as far as I know, is a wonderful young woman. This is why Obama needs to go, he is bad for the Democratic party and bad for Americans. This whole Obama debacle will bring the whole party down.

Barry has been systematically lieing
and manipulating for years...

Mr Obama is the biggest menace
to society ever!!! My
friends and family are all very frightened
and wish he was behind bars...

before yesterday I had doubts about
Mr. Obama: now i know he is a fool!!

Obama has disqualified hiimself
for office by being part of an anti-american cult for years.

Remarkable. Five pieces on Obama and where he went to church. But not one article on the remarks of Paul Wolfowitz, the US Deputy of Defense and one of the chief architects of the Iraqi War that has killed 4000 Americans and wounded at least 100,000 Americans.

"The American government was "pretty much clueless on counter insurgency" in the first year of the war" Wolfowitz and his neocon allies were the American government. They planned and executed this disaster. Does he plan to apologize to the families of the dead? Doesn't this merit at least as much attention as where someone went to church?

this election counts ,
thats what people said about hillary and she is still runnning!! people get your panties out of a bunch what ever is going to happen with happen ... and stop pointing your finger at obama clinton is not helping thing with her claim to fame - lies and nasty comments like screw em ... just be glad they are running against mccain- who has made just as many bad moved as any politician.

Childers will regret this when Senator Obama is inaugurated in January!

I LOVE YOU, OBAMA!

OBAMA/WEBB '08 & '12

3 NEW DELEGATES TODAY & MORE TO COME!

THE MATH DOESN'T LIE & THERE'S NO WAY THE SUPER DELEGATES WILL OVERTURN MY VOTE AND MILLIONS LIKE ME! CLOSE ONLY COUNTS IN HORSESHOES AND HAND GRENADES!

SOMEONE PLEASE LET HILLARY KNOW THAT THE TIDE IS TURNING BACK TOWARDS OBAMA!

Superdelegates better vote for who can beat McCain in Nov. and forget about the popular vote in their districts. Ohterwise- why have superdelegates. If Iowa & the other early primaries were to vote today- the outcome would overwhelmingly be for Clinton. Obama cannot win in Nov. and this country needs a Democrat in the white house.

Lois, in California:

I could not agree more. Obama was not vetted. The Clintons stated this a very long time ago and no one listened. Now the runoff from the DNC's tragic Obama fixation is hurting other candidates. This is just plain wrong.

Poor Childers is now being attacked over Rev. Wright!! Awful!!! Shame on the DNC for not doing their job.

If Obama was a true patriot and cared one bit more about this country than he does for himself- he would step down. Obama is a coward and weak and self serving.

I am sooo angry about this mess. I blame Obama and his campaign for even running this time. The DNC has enough problems. He is an untested, unvetted candidate. He may be refreshing but new to the game. He should have waited four years until he cleaned up some questionable associations and past affiliations before his decision. He just jumped head first into the run for president. Now, the Democratic Party is in jeaoparty of losing in the November if he is the nominee. I am a Hillary supporter but I'm a realist.

Sandy ,
what issue? im worried about the issues here not in iraq! may sound rude but i dont care my family comes first-

Melissa.... you're still bootstrapping on the McCain/economy question but not worth arguing about it. But, you didn't really answer the hard questions did you? You can conflate troops in Iraq/bin laden, but doesn't change the facts that there are concrete issues in Iraq that need to be considered. If not by the public, then by the Commander in Chief (to be!).

If Hillary truly had a better chance against the Republicans than Obama, don't you think they'd be trying to damage her right now to tip the nomination to Obama? But they're not. They're being COMPLETELY SILENT on Hillary, and directly targeting attacks on Obama almost exclusively in the contested remaining primary states.

If this was about the General election, they'd be more nation-wide, and if they thought Hillary was more of a threat than Obama, she'd be getting hit right now.

And of course down-ticket folks are going to brace themselves against these attacks. Do you really think it would be any different with the shoe on the other foot?

Wake up. Obviously the Repubs have chosen their preferred candidate to compete against, a resounding Republican vote for Clinton that grows louder the more silent they are about her.

Remember, you are democrats. No republican should decide your candidate for you, and you shouldn't be buying into their tactics. Think!

Sandy ,
no he said he didnt know economy because they had talked about it because the view claimed he never said that and it was proven he did... either way he worded it he still doesnt know economy and it shows when he wants to keep going with what is going on with the war in iraq - and it shows he knows little about the safety of americans on top of that- you dont think that other countries are going to let us have a endless amount of money we can get from them do you? do you think that with our men dying over in iraq is helping our stand against bin laden? do you think that a attack on us from bin laden would be easily resolved with our troops as it is now? they are tired and we have no money to launch a attack on bin laden and it only gets worse every day!!! and those are the things people are worried about.

Oh how we get amnesia during campaigns. The Clinton adminstration has produced more convicted felons and scandal than any other administration in history. Even as we speak they are being sued in the California Courts for their associations and fraud. I don't expect anybody to put any names or faces to the Clinton's past but pick up a history book and turn off your damn TV.

Melissa,

It is politics. Every one may lie and every one is "politically correct" unless the lies are caught...

It is democracy. Every one has his/her own right to support his/her own candidates based his/her own favor and knowledge. Unfortunately, at least 50% of dems won't share with your view so far...and currently it is not good trend for Obama either..

"Sen. Barack Obama continued accepting donations from oil company executives and employees last month even as he aired ads in which he stated he took no oil company money, his campaign finance reports show." yes EXECUTIVES AND EMPLOYEES - but either way that would be one against obama vs a million for clinton.. not really a victory!!

Melissa =

Actually what McCain has said is that he knows economics less than defense and national security, and that he's not as knowledgeable about the intricacies of economic relationships as economists and experts. Not quite saying he doesn't know the economy.

As for "getting out of Iraq", both Obama and HRC are twisting the truth to some extent and acknowledging that circumstances on the ground (in Iraq and the ME as a whole) will dictate final decisions. Also, they're glossing over the fact that it takes time to get troops/materiel out of a country -- it's not a few months, more like a few years. So you don't really know what they will do.

Of all of them, McCain has come closest to saying his true position - we'll stay there as long as it takes to get the job we need done done. No pandering timetables, no fake promises.

People who say "we need to get out of Iraq as soon as possible" should also consider what that means. Some troops/some equipment, all troops/equipment? Take out the Army and Marines, but leave ships in the Gulf and Air Force resources overhead? What's the world's reaction likely to be if the US pulls out and Iraq dissolves into civil war? What about Iran - let them go in or keep enough troops to keep that from happening? What will the ripple effect of civil war be on neighbors such as Turkey (NATO!) and Kuwait, or others (and on the price of oil then?) What about the "world's largest embassy" -- pull those people or leave them w/no protection?

You seem to have all the answers -- go ahead, share.

This is just the beginning the RNC has purchased half-million dollars worth of ads so far about democratic candidates around the country. Rev. Wright is the biggest disaster that has ever happened to the democrats.

Melissa writes:
where is the proof that he said i have never taken oil money ? where is the proof that he took it?

This story broke on 23 April. It's among Obama-Axelrod's truth troubles somewhat eclipsed by the media blitz on Obama's on-again, off-again relationship with Jeremiah Wright. Alice Palmer's another one.

"Sen. Barack Obama continued accepting donations from oil company executives and employees last month even as he aired ads in which he stated he took no oil company money, his campaign finance reports show."

"Barack Obama still takes in oil money:

Don't worry . . . he'll remember his name after President Obama is Inaugurated . . . they always come running back then! :)

Vickie ,
thats what they said about bill clinton when he was running for the white house... only time will tell i guess- im just saying dont snub your nose at obama and claim that hillary is soooo much better because she isnt she is worse !

Melissa,

Hillary has a better chance of implementing her policies than does Obama. SHE can beat McCain. Obama can't. You can't implement your policies if you can't win the election and make it to the WH. Obama has no chance of winning.

how did he lie about knowing bill ayers, he worked with him on a board and was friendly with him he wasnt charged with anything, was he? second of all that really doesnt work for hillary because her and her husband pardoned 2 of them that were convicted of a crime! next..

where is the proof that he said i have never taken oil money ? where is the proof that he took it?

Here are two: Obama's long-term relationship with Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, not taking oil money.

Aside from his "church" troubles, that is.

church troubles are a bogus claim ..

now how about the money that hillary got from paul? how about her saying she didnt have anything to do with the "travelgate" how about her not admitting to asking the military to not look at her when they walked down the hall and she passed them? how about her failure to get jobs in buffalo? how about her health care reform failure? how about bosnia lie , soccer lie, who she was named after lie, the woman who died with out insurance lie
her not being for nafta lie, her being the first one against the war lie, not to mention the i didnt know my husband was doing other women lie....

they were not the whole story and it wasnt as bad as it seemed , wright is out to get obama now and he is going pretty far to do it.. what about the endorsement for clinton of the nut job who said that the widows of 911 were trying to get on t.v. they loved the fact that they lost a husband because that gave them the spot light...

Vickie ,
and what mccain and clinton are free of baggage? when it comes down to plans for americans mccain is on empty! and clinton has promised things in the passed and failed and that is going to be brought up too...

he is for the poor americans and everyone knows it and you tell me one thing that he has LIED about that you see was just for kicks! then we can compare the lies that you have on him and i have on clinton- then we can compare failures too...

MILISSA,
WRIGHT BACK AT YA BABE!

needed for what? the only following that i can clearly understand is the AA following HE has, that i can understand. HE is more for AA rights than others- i will give HIM that but what is in it for anyone else? HE is already showing Americans that HE has no problem telling them a made up story! HE doesn't feel bad about HIS lies and HE will lie when ever needed and sometimes when its not needed just for kicks...
IT IS NOT WRIGHT THAT BO is WEAK!

Posted by: HP Boston | Apr 30, 2008 12:20:52 PM

Sandy ,
first of all most americans want out of the war and are still wondering about bin laden, mccain doesn't know economy he said it himself.. he clearly doesn't understand that this war is putting us at risk not only economically but with a defense against bin laden- you think he has what forgave us ? no he is waiting for us to get all the money we can get from other countries use it for the Iraq war he is waiting until our troops are tired or killed in iraq and we are weak and then he wants to come in with the last blow to finish us off!! we need out of this war NOW we need to fix our economy we need to give our troops a small rest plan well and go after bin laden....

People don't want to be associated with Obama anymore.

Simple as that.

Whether he denounced Wright or not --- Obama is damaged.

The Republicans are ganging up on him not because he is a strong candidate--- ( they want you to think that he is stronger cause he is easier to cream than Hillary in the GE )
( doesn't help Hillary that Obama has more ( *** Bought *** )delegates---

If you are a Republican Candidate--- you want to go head to head with Obama. Cause winning is the name of the game.

And I also DOUBT that Rev. Wright would stay quiet. He is retired. He has a book coming out. He is beloved by his parishioners. He will speak again. And People will give him the attention he wants.

Will be get another speech from Obama again?

They hid in the basement to pray on the day Obama announced his bid for presidency, so that no one would see Rev.Wright. This was in the Bill Moyers interview.

HP Boston ,
