Obama Interview Excerpt: Reaching Across the Aisle

As always Obama comes across as "lame" when he tries to compare himself to McCain.

Has anyone counted the times he has tried to compare himself to Bobby or Jack Kennedy? Shameless political trick.

McCain walks the walk; Obama just talks and talks.

Mama..... another bloc...prison inmates.

And he ain't even that Tall! He's just a great dancer especially when he does his verbal shuffle.

Good one Mama.

"And the same is true when it comes to the economy.[what?]"

Bingo: the One'll talk any question to death in halting phrases drawn out over way too much time, hoping talking heads will misinterpret this professorial pose as actual intelligence, and even perhaps forget where they came in, and/or that "the economy" isn't just more bs like "nuclear proliferation" and "ethics [hahaha] reform".

He's just tall, that's all.

Mama,
I agree with you 100%

"LOL....Behave Mama"

But ... is that not the Chicago style of politics? Why ELSE was the One so set on moving the DNC to Chicago? Might'a made his move too soon.

"There are other larger blocks of voters they could go after to make sure they do win."

Heck, thanks to sharp marketing of Mr. Priss, the Obamans have unlimited money: why not just buy people outright?

If they don't want to spring for "large blocs of voters", there are always County Clerks and mail carriers to be had.

J,

Sorry, sometimes you sound like my husband, LOL. But if the Obama campaign is specifically speaking about a block of voters, why do you feel left out? Yes, every voter is important, but they can speak about others too, you know.

No I was questioning why they stated that. There are other larger blocks of voters they could go after to make sure they do win. He has not addressed the people who could insure a democrat winning in the fall.

If he did I would think about voting for him. Right now there are too many questions about him. If they want to heal this divide they need to get on the stick now.

"Plouffe said the campaign also will keep an eye on Mississippi and Louisiana as the race moves into the fall to see if new black voters could put them within reach."

Too bad it didn't occur to Plouffe to keep Obama from channeling Bill Cosby's bs on Father's Day. Patriarchy doesn't play that well in matriarchal societies.

You know if he loses that it will be Hillary's fault.

Obama said the long protracted race with Clinton is the reason he's tied in the polls(hear the theme: it's all Clinton's fault) and rather than respectfully decline to put her on the ticket he hires Patti Solis Doyle to work for the next VP. What a slap in the face to the 18 million democrats who voted for Hillary. If he was reaching across the isle, he would reach over for these 18 million voters. Roe V Wade is a dead issue for women over 50. Wait and see.

"FOX just reported a quote by Obama's half brother who said something to the effect of Jews would do well under Obama despite him being Muslim"

It's also been all over the web since Saturday or Sunday, with photos. Obama's lies about religion haven't done him THAT much good: first Reverend Wright unravelled, now brother Malik, innocently showing off his photos, has shown Obama lied about the whole never-a-Muslim business.

Nobody'd probably care if he was a Rastafarian, or a Christian Scientist, or a devotee of Kwan Yin.

People DO care about deliberate, repeated, convoluted lying.

Hence, one supposes, today's announcement of the Gore "endorsement" (by which Gore proves HE was lying, when he said he wouldn't endorse anybody).

Can we look for the DNC to move BACK to the nation's capital in D.C.?

The great unifier can't even answer this simple question that we know the answer to. He hasn't worked across the aisle because he's been campaigning half the time!

sonia trevino -

In summary, both are unqualified, affirmative action nominees, in different party styles.

The difference, however, is that GWB is an unknown unknow, but Bho is a known unknown.

Right, he can only talk about working across the aisle. He hasn't done it, has he? Just like everything else he talks about. Speeches are cheap and only make you feeling good.

I will try to post this yet again, as anytime I refer to Obama's half siblings in Kenya, my post is pulled.
FOX just reported a quote by Obama's half brother who said something to the effect of Jews would do well under Obama despite him being Muslim....or something to that effect. I will look it up on FOX....but someone needs to go to Africa and do a bio on BO and all his half siblings....his dad was married 4 times (I don't know if that includes BO's mom) and he has scads of half siblings in Africa.
Why not keep this up...there is nothing slanderous in facts.

"Disgusted Ex-Democrat" posted a comment about Obama using the phrase "Well, look..." and called it condescending and arrogant.

HUH?

As an "ex-Democrat", you'll note that Hillary regularly used the phrase "Well, you know...." Does that put her in the same category?

I'm a true Democrat -- once firmly for Hillary and now firmly for Obama. Rather than make personal pot-shots, how about reviewing the plans of Obama vs. McCain....there's no way a TRUE Democrat would ever vote for McCain. Ever.

Okay, so the answer is no. Once again Obama fails to answer a simple question and instead gives a whole bunch of hot air instead. Ethics reform as political risk--please! His effort on this measure was most strenuous when it came to claiming undeserved credit. Far from perceiving or realizing any risk, Obama's grab on ethics reform was pure political calculation and opportunism.

Anyone still think Obama is going to change politics in Washington for the better? If so, take a strong dose of reality. This guy is a fraud.
