Does anyone else see the problem with pandering for cash in foreign nations? Kind of has to do with loyalty. The Osama's ain't all they are cracked up to be. As much as I hate Hillary, she is definitely the lesser evil of the two.

I wonder how the Pakistani community will welcome Obama. The future invader of their country.

Mrs. Obama needs to stay home. These folks giving the cash to her in England are wasting their money and she is wasting her time. Obama is never going to win anything. He is so far removed from the race that you would think if a person had any intelliggence at all he would get out of the race and quit taking peoples money! But egotism and pride get in the way! The man hasn't got it, can't manage a ice cream stand much less be a Senator or President! I am so amazed that people will vote for most anything these days. If you can smile, shake hands and speak well you can be a Presdient, Huh????

Poor little Drudgies. By the time Nov 08 rolls around, there won't be a single Republican who hasn't been caught in lewd behavior, taking bribes, or abused children. For a party that screams so loudly about values, you sure are lacking in them. Some example you set for our children.

A Clinton? Lesser evil?

I don't like politicians getting money from overseas, but I dislike politicians getting money from criminals even less.

Another smart move by the Obama's. The enthusiam he generates worldwide is refreshing. Senator Obama will be a great president. Being affable is a good thing.

Little Austin Travis does not evidently know of the crooks running the Democrat party now in power. There is not room on this site to list all the crooked democrats, but a few would not hurt. We have Jefferson with the freezer bribe money. We have the scummy money grubbers for Hillary now first coming to light. We have a practicing homo Rangle who had a prostitution ring operating from his apartment. And every one is upset over Craig merely charged for an alleged "SIGNAL". A charge he knew would be blown all over the liberal news of ABC, NBC,CBS and CNN. Pleading guilty to a lesser charge would make sense. The democrats however have people like Travis Austin to laud and praise the democrat misdeeds and make excuses why they should stay in office and get away with more crooked activity all with the help of the MEDIA. ATTACK, ATTACK, that is all the democrats can do. 600 plus investigations and nothing done for the people. HIDE, HIDE any allegations of misdeeds of the democrats.

Is it possible that Mrs. Oboma will be selling some missle secrets for campaign cash like Clinton did with the Chinese army. It would be a terrible tragedy if she gave some American secret to the Pakistani rebels for campaign cash. Is that possible? Selling secrets happened once before. She and her husband are democrats like Clinton. I think we better watch out.

Lets comapare the parties

Republicans:Mark Foley, sent e-mails to Pages - NO PHYSICAL CONTACT. Was forced out by HIS PARTY

Sen. Craig - Immediate action from Republican leaders -strip him of Committee assignments and Ask him to resign.

Democrat: Gary Studds, HAD sex with Pages - Given several standing ovations from House Democrats.

Barney Frank - Homosexual prostitution ring run out of his appartment. Still serves as a Leader in the Democrat House.

WHICH PARTY DO YOU ENDORSE? WHICH PARTY DO YOU WANT TO REPRESENT YOU?

NOT A DIFFICULT DECISION FOR ME.

Jake, I think you meant to whine to me, not your fellow Drudgie, Austin. And I think you meant Barney Frank, not Rangel. So besides being all confused, all your whining doesn't change the fact that your party is lost. You can bring up the ONE corruption investigation against the Democrats, or decades old sex scandals all you want. The fact is, your Party's major campaign slogan revolves around Republicans having higher values than Democrats. Now your voters are seeing that is untrue and will stay home on election day. Our voters are being energized watching the GOP provide so much material for Leno/Letterman. Pretty soon, the GOP will have less power than the Green Party.

The American Presidency should not be for sale overseas. I'd rather vote for Hillary.

Chris, what you really have is a bunch of crooked people and gay people who are hiding behind the Republican face. I, for one am starting to wonder if they
are plants to take down the Republican party???

Also, if there is a gay in the Democrat party he or she is lauded. If there is a gay HIDING in the Republican party the person is a hack, a criminal, a pervert. Why the double standard for gays??????

The Republican party has the Log Cabin Repulicans (if I remember right), so why would a gay hide? And don't give me that crap about discrimination. Barney Frank is the poster boy for how far the envelope can get pushed.

p.s. I am anticipating harsh words coming my way through cyberspace!

RTFA The American Presidency is not for sale overseas. This visit is for US citizens and legal resident aliens living overseas. I have worked overseas several times for US companies and have wanted to continue my involvement in the political process. I am glad to see this kind of outreach.

why are there so many idiots posting on this site? THEY CAN ONLY ACCEPT MONEY FROM AMERICANS LIVING ABROAD. They can't take money from people who are not American Citizens. So Pakistanis and Saudis and anyone else you want to talk about won't be handing Michelle Obama a check.If you give these idiots half a reason to post something ignorant and hateful they will always jump on the opportunity. If we can keep the conversation to people who actually have something of value to offer we would all be better off.

Wow... Either some of you guys posting here have a remedial reading level, or they're purposely trying to spin it as a anti-American thingy. Why don't you read the article and you'll see this is to get Americans abroad involved with the political process. They vote too!!

Don't think for a minute that the Bin Ladins didn't support their friend (thru the Carylyle Group) Bush Sr or his son. Being in the construction business, they made a lot of money on this war.

See, I can spin stuff too. And it's more believable because the connection between the Bin ladins and Bush family does exist.

Bridget, I don't care if a Republican is gay. That won't make me more or less likely to vote for him. It's not the Democrats that brand homosexuals as criminals or perverts. The reason Republicans get hurt is because their hypocrisy gets exposed, and a gay Republican damages their image in the minds of the GOP base. The Log Cabin Republicans are an extreme minority. A gay Republican has the same effect as a Pro-Bush Democrat, it makes the respective base less likely to turn out for them. If Republicans supported gay rights, being a gay Republican wouldn't be scandalous.

I have always thought that most Americans irrestpective of their up-bringing, childhood, orientation and education are fairly rational in their thinking and understanding of the life around them, but that appear to be an illusion.

When I read comments from some people ., I usually wonder the sort of brain they have inside their skull. But, I have come to understand that it's people like these who lack basic common-sense and rational reasoning that keep drawing America backward.

I think it does not require an explanation to know that a child who sits on top of his father's baloon and claim to be taller than him is in for a very hard time.

Maybe this will clear things up for you folks out there who are enraged that an American citizen living abroad wants to donate money:

These are the same people who have the right to VOTE absentee. These might be people who are STATIONED overseas in our fine military! They can be celebrities who have a second home.

Stop fretting about November 2008 in August 2007. I say all these politicians should slow down. This election cycle started too early. By the time the election rolls around everyone will be so dam tired of all the mud slinging and corruption, both parties might stay home and give up on voting.

Loser for sale; fund raiser across the pond.

There will always be idiots, stupids, jealousies, no matter what. Too bad they get to post. Michelle Obama's doing the right thing, it's fantastic she's going abroad to fundraise. You go girl, keep it up!!!
