Obama has lied since the start of his campaign, like it is not going to be about race--unless he is talking to blacks, or sharing the oppression of the jews--etc..etc...etc...He was going to use a different kind of politics--I guess so, if you call cut throat different.His associations with Wright, Ayers, etc...etc...etc...He is a rasist, sexist, elitist, corrupt Chicago style politician.I will never believe a word that comes out of his mouth, or anything the ethically challenged DNC HAS TO SAY.

Finally something negative about Obummer from AOL. I was starting to think that AOL thought Obummer's shit didn't stink like everyone else's. Keep it real AOL. Not everyone, both Republicans and Democrats, aren't falling for the lies coming out of Obummer's and the DNC mouths. Mr. Empty Suit and backstabbing DNC stick it where the sun don't shine.

You are aware, probably, that Barack Obama lost his bearings recently and
said that he was going to campaign in all 57 states. You heard this?
And everybody chalked it up to, "Well, he's tired."

Barack Obama says he's gonna go out and campaign in 57 states, he was
just tired, you know, it's been such a long campaign, he's been so many
places, he probably thinks there are 57 states. Well, I have here a
printout from a website called the International Humanist and Ethical
Union. And here is how the second paragraph of an article on that
website begins. "Every year from 1999 to 2005 the organization of the
Islamic conference representing the 57 Islamic states presented a
resolution to the United Nations commission on human rights called
combating." And the title of the piece here is, "How the Islamic states
dominate the UN human rights council," and there are 57 of them.

Obama said he's going to campaign in 57 states, and it turns out that
there are 57 Islamic states. There are 57 Islamic states. ; ; So did
Obama just lose his bearings, or was this a more telling slip, ladies and
gentlemen?

"Has Obama's reversals damaged his candidacy?"
The sheep aren't listening; they're just playing follow the leader.

G.Branch10:26AMJun 28th 2008

Wake Up !!!! Would you negative against Obama people on this blog really know the truth if you heard it. What lies has Obama told? He can change his mind on issues just like all the politians have done and will continue to do. DO YOU REMEMBER? READ MY LIPS from the
Elder Bush?
Get a life. Vote for more wars with McCain. You should know by now the Republican party has always been about war and taking care of the rich. I have been around for 74 years. I have some wisdom and knowledge about what is needed for the next move of this country and it's not the GOP. Start praying and ask God to lead you in your voting.

Let's take our White House back for all the people of
America and not just for the very wealthy. Do you hear them complaining about their houses in forclosure, oil prices and trying to make ends meet?

Stop the hating on Obama, Hilliary and Obama have the same views on the issues to bring America back for the average American people.
If you can't understand those facts. Maybe you should get educated in how all people are created equal and you don't judge someone by the color of their skin.
Check out Obama's IQ he is quite intelligent, has good common sense and has broken all records of being the first to run such an organized campaign. Give credit where credit is due.

God Bless America
Obama 2008-2012

Andrew10:33AMJun 28th 2008

In just two years Remember the election in 2006?

Thought you might like to read the following:



A little over one year ago:



1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;

2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;

3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%.



Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we have seen:



1) Consumer confidence plummet;

2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3.50 a gallon;

3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);

4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses);

5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;

6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.




America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!



Remember it's Congress that makes law not the President. He has to work with what's handed to him.



Quote of the Day........'My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it.' -- Barack Obama


These stats on taxes really get me. My guess is that 90%+ of the people that vote Democrat party are ignorant to this fact. They believe the propaganda Bullcrap of the Liberal press. Well, if they vote in either one of the Dem's they will see their taxes skyrocket.



Part 2:



Taxes...Whether Democrat or a Republican you will find these statistics enlightening and amazing.



www.taxfoundation.org/publications/show/151.html



Taxes under Clinton 1999 Taxes under Bush 2008

Single making 30K - tax $8,400 Single making 30K - tax $4,500

Single making 50K - tax $14,000 Single making 50K - tax $12,500

Single making 75K - tax $23,250 Single making 75K - tax $18,750

Married making 60K - tax $16,800 Married making 60K- tax $9,000

Married making 75K - tax $21,000 Married making 75K - tax $18,750

Married making 125K - tax $38,750 Married making 125K - tax $31,250



Both democratic candidates will return to the higher tax rates



It is amazing how many people that fall into the categories above think Bush is screwing them and Bill Clinton was the greatest President ever. If Obama or Hillary are elected, they both say they will repeal the Bush tax cuts and a good portion of the people that fall into the categories above can't wait for it to happen. This is like the movie The Sting with Paul Newman; you scam somebody out of some money and they don't even know what happened.



PART 3:



You think the war in Iraq is costing us too much?



Read this:



Boy am I confused. I have been hammered with the propaganda that it is the Iraq war and the war on terror that is bankrupting us.

I now find that to be RIDICULOUS.

If, on the other hand, if it does raise the hair on the back of your neck, I hope you forward it to every legal resident in the country including every representative in Washington, D.C. - five times a week for as long as it takes to restore some semblance of intelligence in our policies and enforcement thereof.



REMEMBER - REGISTER AND VOTE and remember how Everyone voted in 2006! Don't make the same mistake!

but all your silly hatred will not stop the wind of change. your time is done. go visit the bush museum and dream of the good old days.

I ask again: "Who are you people that present such a twisted, biased, right wing, ignorant viewpoint? Are you just ignorant, period?

You must be loading these polls with multiple votes since I just cannot believe that people that have access to and can operate a computer are so unenlightened.

Wow! Walt Kelly in Pogo was right: "We have met the enemy and he is us."

vick11:50AMJun 28th 2008

Most of the stats posted by Andrew are wrong....the CNN transcript re 30 percent of illegals being crimminals was on Lou Dobbs and has been proven wrong and admitted by Lou Dobbs to be wrong. What rascist comments on this blog.

John12:14PMJun 28th 2008

You are all missing the point. Obama, MCCain none of them can be trusted. Why should we trust politicians of any stripe who turn a blind eye to the coruption and downright lawlessness that has occured over at least the past 8 years if not long before that. We have a system dominated by big money and a corporate media who willl not stand for what the people want at any time. We need to take our democracy back by paying attention and voting our hopes instead of our fears. If Obama is as bad as any other mainstream politician, find one who will stand for something and protect our dwindling Constitutional rights before it is too late. Dennid Kucinich, Mike Gravel and Ron Paul all come to mind but look how the system amd corporate controlled media disposed of them before we really had a chance to know them. Take back your collective will and find your own political voice..

algravelin12:37PMJun 28th 2008

who in this world is in prison for crimes + murders +drive by shootings/the black people+ you want to put one in the white house? somebodies on crack// i dont agree with the supreem court votes on gun control / i think all hand guns should be confiscaded except the millitary+ police// there is no need for anyone else to have hand guns / the will be no safer in thier homes.. the russians have no problems with that// but of course this is america 2nd amendment //go ahead shoot each other like the wild wild west //bring you guns to school + work..in your car// let them hang around for your kids can get shot//'/

Eric1:13PMJun 28th 2008

Chameleon Obama will "change" into anything the political climate dictates at the moment. Just the typical lying, two faced politician. THAT'S CHANGE?

Chris1:23PMJun 28th 2008

God BLESS America
McCain for President. We need an honest person. We may not agree with everything he stands for, but at least we know what he stands for. He will protect and lead American in the safe direction.
Honest Man McCain
God Bless American - President McCain

Beck1:25PMJun 28th 2008

The powers that be in this country and the media are pushing Obama like they did George Bush and look what we got. That's enough to send a light off in any sane person's mind "vote for the other guy."

Joyce1:30PMJun 28th 2008

I do not believe Obama to be a sincere person, therefore I do not trust him. He keeps "changing his tune" to adapt to the particular situation that will benefit him the most. We need a leader with consistency....one who HAS solutions & sticks with them to fruition. I don't believe his "change" is what voters anticipated & it's best for them to do some rethinking about Obama's lack of qualifications. I never intended to vote for him & I'm more certain than ever that he is not right for our country & I put my country before party. The Dems have been off on the wrong track during the entire primary. Now they are on the other side of the tracks & I'm one voter who will not follow. Not for Obama....now, tomorrow, Nov. or ever.
