In other News. CNN is reporting that Obama fans are "Creepy" and Fox News is comparing Obama to Hitler. Be wise this election my American friends, the corporate media is going to try and influence your decision, again.
The Sound of a Smoke-Free Barack...Mo Rocca appears on a bunch of shows, including CBS News Sunday Morning (with the indescribably wonderful Charles Osgood), The Tonight Show on NBC, and NPR's Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! He's a sometime judge on Iron Chef and was featured on Telemundo's Amore Descarado. Last year he starred on Broadway in the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. His expose "All the President's Pets" was published by Crown in 2004.

1. Equating oppenents to Hitler is as old as Hitler. That's politics as usual.
Obama IS just like Hitler, rather he's a Hitlerian dream, with his blonde hair, blue eyes, and goosestepping....WTF?
Sadly, I trust no politician of today, or yesterday for that matter. Who, in their right mind, would want all the bullshit that goes with campaigning on the national level today.
Hillary's biggest problem is her biggest asset: BILL.

2. That video makes me want to scrape my eyes from their sockets with a rusty fork and smash them together until they're soft enough to cram into my ears to keep that god awful noise out of my head.

5. Well, the way a few of his "fans" cry and faint like he's a rockstar is creepy. Some of his speeches border on religious, as in he's the only one who can give hope for the future little lambs. Change (undefined) is at hand!!! Creepy. I'm not sure about O'Bama, but he's going to have to tell me HOW he's going to bring change before I consider him anything more then a fad.

6. Gee guys. I've spent a good part of my life in recording studios and I think that the band is good. The horn section is excellant. Its the vocal track that lacks production value. Get Bono, better op-amps and a better mic and you might have something. And by the way, the track had more to do with the Jackson 5. Think 123, ABC.

7. Chris Matthews on Obaman...
-------------------------------------------------
" "My, I felt this thrill going up my leg." When his MSNBC co-hosts tried to bail him out, he refused to recant. Not surprising for an acolyte who said that Obama "comes along, and he seems to have the answers. This is the New Testament."
----------------------------------------------------
Why is Chris Matthews still employed? For that matter, why was he ever employed?

8. @mel.
Change is defined, on his website in a 60+ page pdf if you care to read.

9. Thanks for the tip, Jeff, but that wasn't what I said. I've heard all his "lobbyist" rhetoric (and the healthcare), I want to know HOW he's going to bring change. Lobbyists are not just evil spawn, they're the companies that actually do the work. Pump Oil, Build power plants, invent drugs, cure the sick. Even if he doesn't take their campaign money they have power. How is he going to get these initiatives through congress? That 60 page document doesn't give policy. It doesn't state legal propositions. And by the way under his healthcare plan there's a lot of crap as well. Chilren already CAN be under their parents plan until they're 25. Thanks Obama. LOL

10. Some of my message was cut off. Honestly doesn't it worry you a smidge that his speeches are so sermonish using words like hope and change (in his speeches he merely says change not specific plans) and whips people into crying fainting frenzies? Is that a logical choice for a leader or an emotional response to charisma? That's what worries me.

11. that reminds me of school house rock videos that tried to teach kids about the U.S.

Who, and why, is removing your entries?

13. Jeff,
One for the road, I am sure it will say, 'You did it! email, blah, activation, yadda, then nothing.
Perhaps I am persona non grata, probably because I had Usama bin Laden, a few Taliban and al-Qaeda over last Friday for an impromtu dinner party, I like to give the Department a few of these so long as they are trapping them and tapping all my phones.
Let me see, Mr. Jeff Hoard was 'Kuciniched' from AOfriggingL, Dennis was 'Disappeared', no favorite media styled blogsmith, 2 broken laptops, but replaced the hard drive on one now its okay, second has to shipped back, so I just have this and a Mac now, will be a slower person now. Gremlins running amok, especially with equating Obama to Hitler. Obama is a fantastic Orator, like MLK, JFK, Malcolm X, not like Hitler. Hitler had the Charismatic shit going on during speeches, he was totally random in his speeches, yelled and pounded, I would dare to say much more of the FUX news sort. Damn the US is like the Third Reich with all of our little departments now, Homeland Security, within HS, we got our Dept of Health and Human Services, Department of Justice, Department of Energy, all under Homeland Security now. We have no habeas corpus, Third Reich, too. If you read the text of H.R. 1955 Section.899.d. or e., "We will develop a learning Institute to study this phenomanae of 'Homegrown Terrorism', we shall call it The Center of Excellance, heretoforward it shall be referred to as 'Center'.
Now who sounds like Hitler? The 'Conservatives?', tried the Hussein middle name thing, now Clinton(s) are doing this, didn't read the so called speech where lines were supposedly plagiarized by Obama, I am sure it isn't what we are being told.
I think it is great that the younger adults finally identify with a candidate enough that they will vote. I listened to JFK in the same way, people are acting the fool, per quorum.
I was told he voted for that fence they want to keep the 'illegals' out, like you Jeff only southernly. ;),I will have to go to thomas to check the Vote Call on that bill.
They say not enough experience, WTF and bush is a damn Einstein? He is stunted mentally in the Diplomacy arena, actually in more ares than that, Obama will have advisors, if he is wise in his cabinet choices he will do okay.
Went to thomas there a gazillion amended amendments to the amendment which concerns monies for the TSA, with a bazillion departments. It isn't just nutball Tancredos amended bill, that's a blip on the screen. I wish people would read the CRS of a bill before they start urban myths.
I actually like Obama, still aggravated me in respect to Romney and Obama, publicly discussing their choice of religion, a Senator should know better, the reply should be, "Please refer to the First Amendment of THE BILL of RIGHTS." People always say you swear on the Bible during the swearing in ceremony for the office of the President of the United States, they may place their hand on whatever text they choose, they swear on the Constitution, they should read the text of that too.
Damn, early and these MF'ers are using their nasty tricks already.
Please remember the 'Winter Soldier' II testimony by Veterans and Active Duty Military of the war in Afghanistan and the invasion of Iraq, the TRUTH will out. It cost the Vets $1200 a day to sit, they have to put up money to testify. March 13-16.
Jeff, the site bounces you back here, I hope you do submit to more Alternative media sites while you do your other THANG.
Shit, they probably will not allow my P/W again and do the I did it shit so I wasted another hour.
Miss Ya already.
