Obama supporters back Obama even when he is clearly wrong. They can never find any fault with Obama. One word "cult"

It's all about CHANGE but many still want to critique the Obama campaign by old, last-generation standards of "tow the party line" no matter if it includes lying cover-ups about war, oil, money, humor, personal affairs, whatever.
For survival, we need to think outside that old box, and find the good.

Give me a break...

If Lisa Lampanelli does one of his fundraisers that would be news!

Obama never rebuked Bernie -he was just messing with him. Jus tlike he never rebuked Wright. That is the point of the story. Obama once again takes the vote present was out.

I'm too busy taking Obama the Orator instructions given to an audience in Ga last week to "learn Spanish" to pay attention to the crowd the GREAT One hangs out with....what a joke!

I'm not an Obama supporter, but Bernie Mac is funny. That was a good joke and that's what comedians do. I guess that means more work for Rich Little on the political circuit. Are Flip Wilson and Jonathan Winters still alive and available?

I don't think I'll be voting for Bernie Mac in November.

I think what is even funnier about the joke is...The Obama campaign had a foul mouth comedian introduce Obama to the crowd KNOWING exactly the type of Material he uses...AND the punch line is....THEY DISTANCE themselves AFTER THEY KNEW WHAT HIS MATERIAL USUALLY IS.

lol funny to know that the campaign allows speakers to say how they truely feel and are "able" to distance themselves after getting someone else to do the dirty talk for them.

Obama is weak, he never stands up to anyone, Obama just fails over and over again. I can't imagine having someone of such weak character as President.

Umm shouldnt BO have found out exactly what his act was gonna be? Guess BO was too busy listening to himself talk. I am not gonna really blame this one on him though, I am sure barack will regret his decison to have Bernie at the fundraiser, but after he gets backlash for that he will regret regretting bernie attended the fundraiser.

So will Bernie Mac (who I think is hilarious) be held to the same standard as Imus? Enough with double standards, speech codes, overblown 'sensitivity'.

Well, lets see how long it is before the MSM jumps all over this one, like they did the 'bitter' remarks. While at the same time, they are playing down Phil Gramm's 'mental' comments, and McCain's 'psychological' gaff. At least, Bernie Mac got a laugh; McCain's joke about Belarus didn't get a peep.

That's the point. BO never said he regretted the statement or apologized for having that joke said at his fundraiser. He said "I'm just messing with you".

Once again he can't bring himself to take a stand against a comment that he should clearly stand against.

He won't until the pressure mounts then he'll suddenly regret the statement.

Typical BO.

It's Bernie Mac. Did the Obama campaign not watch his stand-up before they invited him to perform? Bernie Mac's agent will tell you upfront that he does not do a clean act. That is why he doesn't do corporate shows. The organizers should have booked a more appropriate act.

Also, the joke isn't offensive to women. It's offensive to his sister (which is part of his bit) but not to all women. He didn't say ALL women were hoes. Secondly, it's a joke (and personally I think it's funny.)

The problem I have is that Obama wants us to think that he has integrity, however, he will say that everything is fine to Bernie's face but then turn around and have his spokeswoman say that he thinks it was inappropriate. That is not integrity.

Cyberhack: Democrats really do abuse women? What do you call it when Republicans tell a woman what she has a right to do with her body. You are also an idiot.

chattyway - 8 seconds of McCain squirming, blushing, rubbing his chin; trying ever so desperately to crawl out of his skin. It seemed like an eternity. When he finally spoke, he gave a lame excuse that he'd get back to the reporter on this as he didn't know the facts (but he never did). His own voting record belied his position!
Yea, his reaction was priceless!

chattyway - It was funny. Haven't you seen the clip? It was one of those "what the heck did she just say?" moments. I'm just trying to point out that you can't control what other people say, even your close friends and advisers.

That joke has been going around for years. Who does that joke offend ? People who have taken money to sleep with the mailman but who don't consider themselves prostitutes? Get real everyone. The fact that this is even a news piece is amazing.

Gee, Obama is constantly saying he disapproves with people who are his "close friends and associates." If he disapproves of them so much: 1) why is he still close friends with them or 2) why does he still associate with them? Oh, I see - he stopped being friends or associating with them last month (or was it last week). Is he kidding?

It's Bernie Mac....Nothing is "Off Limits", Even I know that! You get what you pay for. Hire a comedian, they are what they are!!!
