Political Punch

The McPain theory was to shove Sarah Palin down America's throats and thought we were too ignorant and dumb to do a background check or interview. I'm glad it back-fired because I am a person that doesn't take things at face value. Give me a littlel time to make up my own mind. And for Todd Palin -- if he had been minding the store, Bristol maybe would not have gotten herself into trouble. Both Palins should try staying at home and raising their family.

Obama isn't nearly as qualified as Palin. All he does is vote "present" at Congress. Check it out, it's on record. Obama also is the one who can't say anything without a teleprompter. He gaffes every time there is a malfunction or someone asks him a question. I'm also tired of the media pumping themselves up as these people who are so unbiased and reporting the news with impartiality "extraordinare". They're so biased and it's so obvious it's redundant to have to say so. But, they either don't/can't/won't see it or are just plain lying about it and hoping we don't notice. It's too bad we can't vote on them. They'd be out of a job!!

evil,evil,and evil. we should be tired of the mess we are in.lies and double take will catch up to you people soon. we are a disgrace in the world. the would is tired of this. let be real and honest for a change.

Lord help us. (lol)

How about the "the highly respected and eminently unbiased" ABC News running a story with the headline, "Levi the Teen Dad Hits the Big Time"? It would be one thing if comics try to tar Palin with the "trailer park trash" label, as one comedienne has, but it's simply improper for "impartial" media do it, and absolutely inexcusable when the target isn't Palin herself but this teenager close to her.

And how about MSNBC running the line "How many houses does Palin add to the Republican ticket?" during their breaking news segment on McCain choosing her?

These are the clear personal biases of these writers and their newsrooms coming to the surface. But at least they're showing their true colors as they laugh up their sleeves.

A lot of people in the media have been saying that it's the media "just doing its job" with Palin. I wish it would "just do its job" with Obama and Democrats. This morning Obama was on "This Week," and Stephanopoulis asked how he felt to have his community organizing mocked. Where have the hard questions been about his community organizing? Obama's had a softball treatment by the media throughout his campaign. They usually don't ask the tough questions, and if they do, they don't follow up. They also don't dig deep. It's been well over a year, but is the American people now familiar with Saul Alinsky, the organizer who dedicated one of his books to Lucifer, and ACORN?

Dear Marylou,

you don't have to worry about your friend not voting for Obama because of the "ugliness surrounding him". Because 100 million Americans are not giving in to this attempt to smear his name.Obama is educated, intelligent and promises change. The way the country is today, anyone would be a fool not to vote for him.

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

Sara Palin is not qualified to be Vice President of the United States PERIOD!

Obama/Biden '08

Squall,

I'll stop at this point, but I just wanted to engage with you on your comments because I feel so strongly about the common practice of lumping all people of high income together and assuming that raising their taxes will not affect other Americans. My family paid over 60,000 in taxes last year, contributed over 20,000 to charity, yet we live in a house valued (generously, I might add) at $80,000 and we have two sons in college. We do not complain about paying taxes, but we certainly do worry about Obama's plans to raise those taxes, with both higher income and self-employment taxes. As I mentioned, we have one employee and would like to add another in the next year or two, but if taxes go up, we will not be able to afford to do that and might not be able to maintain the worker we have now. Will that really help the economy?

A friend told me today that she won't vote for Obama because of all the ugliness surrounding him.

Good point. How can one man attract so many nuts and inspire so much hate?

Palin does not owe any to media who has done injustice to her and her family. Why will she give in to them after all they have done to her?
You disciples of OBAMA just show the real skin of your messiah. I hope that Hillary will open her eyes and think the bandwagon she's riding in the name of UNITY. Anybody standing on his (Obama) way will be dishonored and insulted irregardless of your gender, family, children. It's his ego. And that's how he defines CHANGE in his rhetoric. Have you realized why the media is so AFRAID of him? It's so very clear why the media is hailing their godfather Obama. He has half a billion of cash for the media, himself and his chihuahuas. Why do you think his donors
will invest that much?
I know what you meant when you said before that Obama is not qualified and just talk. Don't give in to his ego, just what Palin is doing to the media.

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008!!!

Oops, pushed 'post' too soon-

"The implication that he "deserves" higher taxes because he is not a hard-working person is simply ludicrous, as well as offensive. "
- Terry

Its only offensive when its not true...well...maybe not necessarily, because lazy people usually are in denial of their lack of hard work and half decent work ethic. You do deserve higher taxes.

Oops, pushed "post" too soon. Squall, you are incorrect in assuming that those making over 250K all have desk jobs. My husband works with his hands in a smelly, dirty environment, which is why his labor is worth the big bucks he earns through superior skills and a work ethic that cannot be beaten. We know several other individuals in similar industrial engineering/maintenance jobs who also earn over 250K annually, and they too are "blue-collar"; that is, they work with their hands, they get dirty, they put in long hours.

Squall,

You may need to rethink your characterization of those making over 250,000 a year. My husband and I own a small business and we now make that much each year. We are an LLP, so our income flows through to our individual tax returns and we pay a ton of taxes. We certainly know how to work hard--- our business consists of the two of us and one recently-hired subcontractor. My husband works 7 days a week, over 60 hours a week, every week. (He has the skills upon which we base our business-- I just run the office) The implication that he "deserves" higher taxes because he is not a hard-working person is simply ludicrous, as well as offensive.

"But if you make over $250,000 you are going to be taking care of people with your hard-earned money." Cindy N inc.

Trust me, anyone who makes more than 250k/year does not know the meaning of hard work. Anyone who says any different is more than likely one of the people making that much...seriously gimme a break. Unless you are a low-middle class citizen that is or has worked hard, manual and physical labor, and I mean HARD labor, you know nothing about the meaning of hard work.

Getting paid 250k a year for sitting around a desk all day...wow... can't believe people actually get paid big money for crap like that. Gimme a break.

My democratic party is taking in donations on a 10-1 ratio over McCain-Bush, and has an increase in registered voters as high as 324% over the republicants in many areas.

That's what my Democratic Party is doing.

Thanks to Sarah Palin.

This election will come down to whether the "base" of the Republican party,the white racist vote, turns out in big numbers. They always vote Republican, and the fact that Obama is half black will probably make them turn out in bigger than normal numbers. Even if the Democrats ran the second coming of the "Deity", Ronald Reagan, if he had dark skin the "base" would not vote for him.

lighten up, you guys. Just sit back and enjoy the joke. Isn't that what lieberman suggested?

What has happened to my Democratic party? Maybe it is the new voters Obama has inspired. I have to say I don't like them at all. I hope any women thinking of voting for Mccain will vote for Nader/Gonzalez.

Well - I did CHANGE my party - the GOP will be happy to count my vote since obama and the DNC blocked it!
Our votes will be counted loud & clear in November for McCain/Palin!

Is it gutter time, then?
O.K.
Barack Obama's Mother wasn't a very good "netminder" either.
Does the media have a problem with that? Is that a source of ridicule? Or, since Obama is the next Obamessiah, perhaps his Mother was immaculately concepted.

But if you make over $250,000 you are going to be taking care of people with your hard-earned money."

Wow a little truth slips out.

Yup Obama is only gonna raise taxes on those of you who make $250K+.

And those of you who do have you taxes raised know that you are doing so to help provide health care to all and know that you helping make social security solvent for years to come.

Thank you.

Go McCain! Only Republicans can dig us out of the mess the Republicans made of America over the past 7 years.

When Obama cheated his way into the nomination then chose Biden, OBAMA chose his EGO OVER COUNTRY. THEN as ususal, they are all trying to scapegoat disgusted witnesses and REAL DEMOCRATS. OBAMA AND HIS SUPPORTERS ARE NO DEMOCRATS; it's a FALSE FRONT; LIKE his CHANGE.

"the hate and vitriol of the Obama supporters on this website has convinced me to vote against Obama. I'll vote McCain"

You should of seen the hate against Clinton and her supporters during the primaries. and Obama brags about being executive of his 2,500 campaign staff of bloggers.

Michelle Obama said America is a down right mean country.

She meant to say Democrats are down right mean!

Some of you on here are complaining about how the dems didn't dispose of their flags correctly - an i agree on that point only because the flags should have been recycled or put to some other good use if this was the case, BUT don't you dare try to point a finger! AFTER ALL McCain was the one who disposed of a young Iraq soldier named Adam during his speech by calling thie young vet mere "static and background noise"? and to ignore him! The vet was protesting against McCain's horrible record of treating vets - McCain could have responded better than addressing a soldier that. He could have said son, whatever you concern I’m sure we can discuss further at a more appropriate time etc. etc. etc. McCain says he’s putting country first and he's all about the military and brave solders - heck no, McCain is a hypocrite who as usaual puts his politics first!!!

If you give us a chance, we can perform. Afterall, Ginger Rogers could do everything Fred Astaire could do, she just
did it backwards and in high heels...

--Ann Richards.---------Go McCain/Palin 2008'!

This Hillary supporter will be voting McCain/Palin this November. Real change is comin'!

Obama: The Poster Child for gun control.

Says one thing to the people in Montana and something else to his rich friends in San Fran.

Don't trust Obama,Pelosi, Reid if they control the White House.
Look at how he voted, look at how he flipped on FISA, public finance.

Any true Hillary supporter who would vote for Palin out of spite would be equivalent to a person amputating their feet because their shoes were stolen.

The crude joke is on all of us. John McCain selected a VP that he didn't even know. John McCain did not put country first. John McCain is more of the same.

Obama has refused to answer questions by reporters hundreds of times during this campaign. Not only that he calls a professional female reporter a demeaning name. If anyone called me "Sweetie" while I was working I would have let the world knew he was a sexist.
Attacking his opponents in any way he can is ole style politics for the Obama camp. Obama says he is against it but hires thousands to do just that.

The Republicans complain about "the media" as if Conan, US Weekly, the National Enquirer, and left-wing bloggers have anything to do with, say, the highly respected and eminently unbiased Dan Balz of the Washington Post.

Not to mention 60+ negative stories in the NY Times between the McCain announcement Palin and her speech.

God Bless America and a free, unbiased press

I used to watch the late night comedy shows but no more . Those people are so shallow and uninformed about real people and the real America. They put money in their pocket by demeaning anyone. Shallow and sad.

Jake,

You have shown that you are just another
partisan hack by spreading this tasteless
trash on your blog.

You are gone from my bookmarks as of now.

So long creep.

Never watch Conan O'Brien...would watch Todd Palin meeting Conan O'Brien.

You know, I'm so glad that I remember a time when comedians were actually funny.

hmmm...Conan's career is ebbing as fast as the polar ice caps breaking down in major chunks drifting to a watery abyss.

The chunks represent his marketing rights as a future comedian in our US.

Conan..pls do not quit your day job!

I am surprised you dont wake up a chopper with Alaskan numbers hovering over your condo with beads of red along with some other media types who are now looking over their pathetic shoulders.

another dem for mccain and palin

Here's a good joke:

Obama spent millions on his fake Temple to himself

Spent millions on color-coordinated organic food in Denver

And just to prove the Democrat's patriotism they threw thousands of American flags in the trash.

Obama will waste taxpayers money too--you only need to research his millions in earmarks...

But if you make over $250,000 you are going to be taking care of people with your hard-earned money.

The flags in the trash bags are being distributed at the McCain/Palin rally of 20,000 moments ago. Bad move by Axlerod/Obama camp to not get a clean up crew in there before the Boy Scouts and Vets for McCain gathered up all the disposed flags laying around....good thing we Republican value our flag, what a waste of the Dem Convention!

Palin herself is fair game for the comedians or anyone else. But to do a number on a 17 year old who isn't running for anything and did not choose the spotlight is simply a cheap shot. I seldom thought O'Brien was funny before. I have even less regard for him now.

What did Gore do as VP? Nothing. Never saw him, never heard from him for 8 years and couldn't even get elected Prez after all that on the job training. Palin has my total support!

“They screwed/skewered Hillary and I'm not waiting another 24 years (Ferraro) to vote for a woman!”

I guess the DNC thought that was enough to please women, so much so, that they carried a pompous, unqualified donkey named Obama over the finish line. Well, they got him the nom, but they will not get him into the White House.

Ticked-off Democrats are holding the keys to THAT joint and we are not turning them over to The Messiah and his Whining Wife on Election Day!

PUMA! McCain/Palin 2008 - In lieu of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.

"No self respecting woman should wish or work for the success of a party which ignores her sex.”- Susan B. Anthony

You scraped my post but Country First at 1:28 also said have the cred to let us know that Boy Scouts in Denver, Vets for McCain and other Republicans have 84 large plastic garbage bags full of American Flags that were thrown on the ground after the Dem Convention. They are going to hand them out to the 20,000 that are in Denver right now, these trashed flags the Dems and their leader have no respect for....let alone should not be littering.

They screwed/skewered Hillary and I'm not waiting another 24 years (Ferraro) to vote for a woman!
HILLARY SUPPORTER FOR McCAIN/PALIN
I was going to vote McCain after Hill was forced out anyway....Palin just makes the deal all the more enjoyable.
There are plenty of you out there just voting for the black guy because he's the black guy.

Palin (the communications major)pulled from campaigning alone

If she is not ready to be a VP candidate on day 1
she is not ready to be VP on day 1
if McCain falls she is definately not ready to be President on day 1

To 59days,
You missed the point. The issue is common decentcy no matter what the circumstances are.
Just imagined him talking about your mother, sister, daughter, aunt, grandmother in that way.
I hope you're not fine with that.

geevill
Ah geevil. So this is where you've been hiding. Why don't you speak to the fact that this moose eating beauty queen can stand on stage and talk tough but she's apparently too scared of too stupid of both, to face the media. Face it, this unqualified bimbo will be history in 2 months! By the way, they should stay away from bragging about her having executive experience as a govenor becaue McGeezer also was not a govenor, that idiot Bush was...and look how well that's turned out. Now, go ahead...try to defend this twinkie's attempt to run from the national press!
Ass!

Thank you, Frank. 1:24:41.

“The first woman VP candidate was a Democrat. The first woman Secretary of State was a Democrat. Unless you are suggesting that Clinton should have gotten the nomination just because she is a woman, your rant about either Party "ignoring women" is kinda silly.”

I am well aware of who the first VP candidate was. Wasn’t that about 24 -25 years ago?:D

As for the rest of YOUR rant, well, that was just “kinda silly.”

PUMA! McCain/Palin 2008 - In lieu of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.

"No self respecting woman should wish or work for the success of a party which ignores her sex.”

Who cares? Conan is a comedian. The republican strategy is to claim victimhood and then intimidate the media to stop talking about them in anything other than a positive way. Don't back down, questions need to be asked, we are electing the next president.

Now that each and every lie is being proven to be smears from Andrew Sullivan, Daily Kos and Obama' campaign.......where is HOPE, CHANGE?

McCain 2008
Hillary 2012

Hopey - Back to Rev Wright.

Obama hasn't insulted any children.

"One of Clinton's laws of politics is this: If one candidate's trying to scare ya and the other one's trying get ya to think, if one candidate's appealing to your fears and the other one is appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope." -- former President Bill Clinton, 2004

Thank you Bill Clinton for explaining why people should vote for McCain-Palin over Obama-Biden

There is only one rule that comedians have to abide by. It is this: find out what offends people and thou shalt talk about that.

These guys will do absolutely anything for a laugh no matter who it hurts.

Their lame attempts at humor obviously directed to a mostly pro-Obama audience, since they rarely ever joke about him.

If they are going to tell jokes leave the kids out and tell jokes about all the candidates.

Reminds me of Oprah who endorsed Obama, had him on the show twice, now refuses to have Palin on her show.
Can you imagine what Ellen would be called if she refused Obama?

bc46 & Roxanne, hey - you heard about the thousands that are gathering to listen to McCain / Palin today? You will get more jealous and more hateful when you do find out! I can smell your fear even from here! By your standards, BHO is NOT qualified to be POTUS since Sarah beats him by miles on those fronts! Shame on you - putting down your own guy! Y'all are misogynists, sexists - look what you did to Hillary, one of your own! Shame on you! Keep the hate coming - it validates just how scared you are!!! lol,lol,lol!

Raising McCain / Barracuda / Go Johnny, go.

12,000 American flags were thrown in the trash by the obama campaign and the democrat party, at their conventions ending. Today in Colorado Springs Boy Scouts who rescued these flags will present them to John McCain.
This "Throw Away America" by Obama, the dailykos kiddies, and the rest of the democrat party is indictive of their plans for America.. The I hate America change they are bringing is disgusting, The Democrats have now shown they truly hate the Military and all this country and this flag Stands for. Now If Abc Censors delete this, then they too will concur with this message of hatred and disposing of our great flag adn what America stands for This Vietnam Veteran, is sickened by the democratic party and its disgusting disposal of the american flag

everything is fair game if its being use politically and that includes kids and grandmas. for you republicans quit comparing palin to obama. obama is a lawyer with a J.D.. palin has a bachelors degree in journalism. the two just don't equate no matter how many more years shes been working gaining her experiences. she's still less intelligent.her neurons haven't been challenged at post grad levels. so show some respect. never realized until now how dumb the republican masses are, you democrats are dumb too. time for you all to do some independent thinking and quit isolating yourselves to one party. do whats best for the country. the democrats seem to have all the answers this go round. i went repub last go round; big mistake. good luck to our nation. Indep2008

funny that you think obama is ready to be president in day 1 but palin is not in day 2.

Sarah, you said you are working for us, well then,

why don't you interview for the job?

Interview questions, per Huffpost

1 - Did you really ban books from that library up there? Did you fire a librarian over it? Can you tell us your feelings about censorship in a democracy?

2 - Did you really tell the secessionist group in Alaska that they were doing great work? This same group whose leader said in an interview that, "The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government?"

3 - Did you abuse the governor's office by trying to get your brother-in-law fired from the state police?

4 - Exactly what is it about Alaska's "proximity to Russia" that qualifies as "foreign policy experience?"

5 - When Campbell Brown on CNN asked McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds to name one decision that you made concerning the Alaska National Guard that qualifies you for the office you seek, why is that considered "over the line?" Do the People no longer have the right to know the candidates' qualifications before electing them to office?

6 - When you say that the Iraq war is a mission from God, what exactly do you mean? And which God are we talking about? Exactly how far does that God want us to go? When does God think we should withdraw? What does God think about the war in Afghanistan? Russia? China? Does God have any thoughts on the housing crisis?

7 - When you said in your acceptance speech that, "Al Qaeda terrorists still plot to inflict catastrophic harm on America ... he's [Obama's] worried that someone won't read them their rights," are you suggesting that we should suspend the use of Miranda Rights for anyone deemed by the government to be a terrorist? What legal process would deem an arrested individual a "terrorist?" What other basic rights do you feel should be abolished in the "War on Terror?"

8 - What are your thoughts about the separation of church and state? When you say you want to teach "creationism" in schools, what other elements of Christianity should be taught in schools? In order to design that curriculum, would priests have to be put on our school boards? Should any other religions be taught in school? Judaism? Islam? Buddhism? Or do the children growing up in those households not have the same rights as the ones growing up in yours? Should Christianity also be incorporated into the offices of government?

So, Tapper, is Dan Rather, CBS, and the Air National Guard memos part of that false meme about bias too? How about the reporters that falsely said our soldiers were flushing Koran's down the toilet? What about the media serving as judge and jury on the Haditha marines? False meme also? How about the media tut-tutting about Palin being some kind of gender pander by McCain to women, when with a straight face the New York Times just reported about Obama "dispatching" Hillary and female surrogates to places to shore up his female vote? Pander much? Yeah, they'll never report that. But don't worry, Hillary knows what's going on. How about the media asking whether Palin should be staying home with her kids? Ask Obama that lately? As I recall everybody praised Biden for commuting and taking care of his kids. And you laugh about lefty bloggers, but say how many left leaning politicians have penned posts on Kos or Huffington Post? How many politicians spoke at Netroots Nation? I believe it's a long and distinguished list. How many journalists have accounts on Fark, or submit headlines? Know any? Bet you do. How does that influence public perception?

Conan and Us weekly are just symptoms of the larger problem, the benefactors of public perception taken from media narratives and the harshness or fawning nature of public spotlight. How much media savagery has Obama received? How long ago were comedians talking about how no one was really making jokes about Obama?

The bias is so close to your face you can't even see it. But the public can. Rest assured.

As mayor Sarah Palin cut her own salary.

She supports birth control.

She vetoed a bill that would have banned gay rights because it would be unconstitutional.

"He does not support abortion"

heaven help anyone who supports baby killing.

Bill Maher of HBO (part of the CNN family)make far mre disgusting comments which I will not repeat.

No matter how a parent raises his/her child, no adult should address Palin's daughter circumstances in this way.

It is wrong to verbally abuse a child in the manner that Conan O'Brien did.

It is not appropriate nor acceptable by any means.

PUMA! McCain/Palin 2008 - In lieu of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.

"No self respecting woman should wish or work for the success of a party which ignores her sex.”

- Susan B. Anthony

This just proves the low caliber of his character or any others who are doing this.
Very brave of him attacking a young teenager......I'm sure the female members of his family are overjoy.
That's one ugly american, he just answered why the world have a low opinion of us.

The only thing Sarah Palin has proven is that she can lie with the best of the republicans.
She lied about Senator Obama's record. Just ask Lugar, ask Coburn, ask all the republicans he has worked with the pass legislation.

Sarah Palin is a liar. And she will continue to lie. That is what they are teaching her to do, while trying to bring her up to speed regarding domestic and foreign policy.

Why would ABC add insult to injury by posting this? I'm not a fan of Palin's policies, but ABC is adding fuel to this shameful story.

Sarah Palin does not have the knowledge or the education to be #2 in this country.

Sarah Palin's degree does not even allow her to teach a class in this country.

Sarah Palin is not qualified to be Vice President.

No Marty, people like us who donate to Senator Obama are trying to WIN this election. Its about US, not about Senator Obama.

I usually love Conan.

I agree that the networks and Dan Balz are generally great. But the same paper that prints Balz printed Sally Quinn, as well as an erroneous report claiming Palin cut funding of charitable program for unwed mothers when she actually increased it. It is a mixed bag.

And the lines *have* gotten blurred. There are many that think The Daily Show is an excellent news source, and that Steven Colbert is the ultimate truth-teller. Olbermann is treated as a journalist at MSNBC.

I don't know that the right answer is to say that the Republicans are unfairly blaming "the media", or for Roger Simon to pretend he doesn't know what they are talking about.

The best way for the media to 'fight back' is to continue to have outstanding, fair coverage.

Maura –
Please! I am not supporting a party or a candidate that does not respect me as a woman or a voter.

I am also not supporting someone who is unvetted and from what I have researched about him, has ties to some very unsavory characters and does not have the qualifications to lead his way out of a wet paper bag, much less this country.

As for your other points, seems like ½ of the Democrats are happy keeping women “in their place.” Read some of your fellow democrats’ blogs – they should make you think twice before you again raise those talking points to someone who is voting Republican this time around.

I have considered all you have mentioned, researched them and can bring up some talking points of my own, but at this stage in the game, consider it pointless.

We are all free to vote our choices. I have made mine and am going a different way this time. My last act as a Democrat will be to vote for McCain/Palin, I will then switch my party affiliation to Independent. Maybe the next time around the DNC will not blatantly pass over the most qualified, electable candidate to “select” their unqualified, unelectable AA candidate.

Ultimately, with proper coverage and pressure, voters can make a judgment about what Palin's actions as a candidate tell us about her character. She talks tough about reporters, but can't face them; she talks up government ethics, but won't answer an investigation under oath; she raves about her own pit-bull image on stage, but betrays a cowardice under actual pressure. In some ways, she is living

My son e-mailed me this morning with a bunch of garbage from the blogosphere alleging that Palin had used a racial epithet in a restaurant in Alaska to describe BO (simultaneously, with an appropriately demeaning term to describe Hillary. ). As you say, they MUST be REALLY afraid. The trouble is BHO has raised half a billion $ and you can get an army of people to swear to anything you ask them to when you've got that kind of money. He is trying to buy this election.

They did a survey of all the late night comics, I meant.

I am sick of all the late night comic....no one touches the black guy! He's off limits, why? They did a couple of months ago and Hillary and McCain got slammed almost 400 to Obama's 167 (joke counting with late night guys). What crap.....this double standard has to stop. If you can SLAM A WOMAN, AN OLDER MAN....THAN YOU SURE AS HELL SHOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE JOKES ABOUT THE BLACK GUY!
This is one woman, voting for the older guy. Thank God only the 20 somethings watch these losers anyways and will be too drunk to find their way to the polls on Nov. 4.

Patriot..uh...at least the Palins know WHO the father is. You might want to check out the statistics on inner city pregnancies...you know, the ones we all pay for with our tax dollars. While you're at it, check the stats on the neighborhood Obama "organized".

Mike: You must be kidding with this, Obama has raised the race card numeorous times: he called Clinton's comments "unfortunate"; he said that the McCain campaign saying that he doesn't look like the "dollar bill"....just small examples of race cards. And while bloggers have said vicious things about either candidates, we are talking about MAIN STREAM MEDIA here. I watch Leno and Letterman fairly regularly, and have NEVER heard any joke about Obama. But they have no problem attacking McCain's age, and no problem attacking Palin because she is a woman.

Ageism, OK.
Sexism, OK.

But the MSM attack Obama? Racist. And he has been using that to his advantage. too bad though, he has used the race card so much, it has lost it's value, and it's a shame that due to his abuse, real cases of racism will get ignored. Obama has done more to destroy civil rights then anyone in recent history.

How much did Obama pay him??? Obama must be really afraid!
