Obama’s Big Cross Kentucky Flier

This is really going to Obama’s head.
I think he needs a very long Vacation.

If *any* Republican candidate made such an overt religious reference, he or she would be raked over the coals for weeks.

Mr. Obama went to church regularly for 20 years or so. There are issues about the character of the minister, but Mr. Obama’s stated position on religion is consistent with election year politics. It’s not possible to know what is truely in a man’s heart, but Mr. Obama seems sincere about his current faith.

stifling voters is unamerinan!!

Well who else is going to set the record straight?

OBAMA AND HIS KENTUCKY CROSS….ans.
Obama is making a direct appeal to Kentucky evangelicals with flyers that mention his conversion to Christianity and highlights the words FAITH- HOPE – CHANGE and a big old cross. Remember Mike Huckabee’s supposed subliminal cross in his Christmas campaign ad? Well, Obama campaign ditches the subliminal and goes for the in your face cross……….
The verse from the Bible is: FAITH. HOPE. LOVE….
After being told so, numerous times, I guess Obama thinks he is “The Great One” and that he can re-write the Bible. How sanctimonious to steal from the Bible and twist the message for a political stunt?…(CBN+Kentuckian)

Obama accepted Jesus when he decided to run for President. What a politician! Wright is right.

No Jane she doesn’t, but when asked if Obama is a Christian she says well he says he is, and Shrugs.
Everyone here knows and some of you have pointedly said he was Muslim, and it has been pointed out that many of these folks in this region still think he is.

Talk about low-information voters! How can anyone be so gullible to buy into the massive lies that Obama is elite, un-patriotic, out of touch with blue collar voters etc — SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU’VE BEEN TOLD THAT LIE OVER AND OVER AND OVER.
Turn off FOX and ABC radio rabid nonsense and begin to THINK for yourselves.

We all know where Obama got is faith from it will be revisited over and over. In fact the reason Obama will not win in Nov. will have nothing to do with Hillary Clinton. It will be Wright’s and Michelle’s words and.

Gee Kentuckian I am a Vietnam Vet. While not directly from Kentucky my family is from there. I am not upset at all with Obama.
Obama08

Most of these comments are baseless crap. You people eat propaganda like it’s an all you can eat buffet. Good luck with your miserable lives. If the elites didn’t run the world you would still be eating each other’s head lice.
Just in: McCain denies being a wealthy elite. Just like Mr. Bush.
If you put George Bush, McCain, Hilary and Obama on an elite scale Obama would be at the bottom. Keep fooling yourselves, you un-American Bush sellouts.

Obama is right to remind people that he is a Christian. Generally, there is nothing wrong with anyone (even a politician) expressing his beliefs.
In this particular case, it is essential, because his political foes (both Democrats and Conservatives) have been unfairly expressing or implying that he is Muslim, and far to many voters mistakenly believe he is Muslim…and that misunderstanding is hurting his electability.
That’s just dirty politics and it’s not fair.
Senator Obama is a longstanding and committed Christian.
He is right to set the record straight and let people know that he is a Christian. Again, there isn’t anything wrong with that.

OK-this one really makes me want to throw up on a Sunday. Before I do, I have just a few questions. We heard about the “big cross” but I haven’t seen the flyer. 1.How big is the “newly added” cross? 2.Were the flags there too? 3.Was there enough room to fit all of the props behind his “preacher” prop podium? 4.Did someone remember to put the halo on him? 5.Do you think he will campaign now with a “co-ordinating” flag pin with a newly added “cross” necklace? 6.Is this the “CHANGE” right before our eyes? 7. Does this just feel like another bad reality show?

What are you going to believe, a slick political flyer or the candidate’s own words about clinging to religion? As far as the flag pin, I would have thought better of him if he had stuck to his principles of why he didn’t wear it, so much for commitment. What an expedient politician – nothing more, nothing less.

Perhaps if Obama’s flier explained why he sat in that church for 20 years….

the name calling in these comments is just amazing. Mostly (not all), it seems to be from the Obama supporters. Disagreeing with Obama, or pointing out perceived faults, should be acceptable. If one disagrees, he or she should try using reason, and not name calling. Calling people bad names and mocking them seldom wins them over to your side.

All of the comments and news articles are not going to effect the issues facing the American People. Very simple, if you want to continue on the path with a wide gap in salaries, then vote Republican, vote for high gas prices, homes processions, and Iraq War. If you want to assist the middle and lower, then vote Democrat. See what happened, when the right wing placed Bush in office.

RL in Illinois,
Jake has provided a link to the flyer. Click on “here is the flyer” in Jake’s thread. I am still amazed that Obama did this!!

“The elitest millionaire Obama, is just trying to show the hillbillies he is just one of them.. Howdy do folks, ya’ll come back now, hear. The left wing Media will be Obamas protectors and filters”
…. I believe this as well … Hillary ’08 … Kerry-lite cannot win the White House!!”
************************************
so “millionaire” Obama is a phony for pretending he’s “just one of them” but Hillary, who can buy and sell Obama 20 times over (based on relative incomes over the last 7 years) is a genuine populist and “feels your pain.”
Reporter to “Annie Oakley” Clinton: “When is the last time you went hunting?”
Hillary (after spending the week reminiscing about her father teaching her to shoot behind the barn) : “What’s that go to do with anything?”

OBOMA WILL BE THE NEXT UNITED STATES PRESIDENT. AMERICANS WAKE UP READ YOUR BIBLE IF YOU OPEN THEY BOOK OF REVEALITION THEN YOUR EYES WILL OPEN. A BLACK PRINCE WILL RISE FROM THEY EAST ETC////KENYA////EAST////EAST.

Kentucky show’em that your small town people are proud and plenty and not to be reckon with. I guess Obama doesn’t have any shame, most of these voters don’t like you because they see right thru you. What makes you think that because you are close to be nominated that they will waste their vote and give it to you? You may be winning now, but you won’t in November. Hey weren’t you the one telling people how the cling to religion because of their anger, now you are using religion to get yourself some votes. Pathetic indeed and bigtime loser.

I find it obnoxious that the fundamentalists make all the politicians toe the line on their choice of spiritual practice. It is like having the Snopes trial, over and over. All the Republicans had to take it when some Bible thumper pressed each of them to profess LITERAL belief in every word of the Bible in the guy’s hand, during a debate on national tv.
Back in real life, archeologists have found several copies of New Testament books which pre-date the versions used to make the King James version and the ones in common use. Apparently the ones in common use are all FAKES. The ones in use are all changed from the originals, based on adding myths taken from the time of Alexander the Great and other ancient leaders, and plopped onto Jesus’s life, after he was long dead. Of course, since the entire process of Christianity and the idea that the murder of Jesus ‘saves us’ is based on faith, having actual books of the BIble which now contradict the ones in use, is ignored.
From my take on it, we are a nation ruled by fundementalists, fighting a war in the middle east, against other, Muslim fundementalists, and neither side has any sense, whatsoever.
I just happen to be on the planet with the rest of you. Please stop squandering our resources on useless wars and take it seriously to serve the poor, the homeless, and the young and the old. We could do it. Only you are all hypnotized by Richard Nixon to be against anything that is liberal or helpful to the masses. Oh well. Labels, like socialist and liberal, have you by the short hairs, and you apparently cant think for yourselves. I am astonished at the resistance to the suggestion by the Democrats that we have universal health care.
The opposition says we might have to stand in line.
Hmmm. 50 million people have no health care at all, but we should not address that because you might have to wait on line? And the other big reason against it is that your taxes would be higher if we have universal heath care and every one who can get in, can get free college. Hmmm. Do you think health care and college are FREE now?
Health care and college are expensive.
That is a Tax on the poor and the middle class, but you are hypnotized not to call it by its real name.
I am also disgusted that most fundementalists are so focused on personal, civil rights issues that are none of your business, but you ignore the WTO and its ways of running the USA.
I am particularly galled that you say nothing about the “legal fiction”, that a corporation now has the rights of a person. I suppose you dont even know what I am referring to.

Obama has the politician’s game down pat, doesn’t he? He panders, he defines hypocrisy, he complains that all who run ads against him are using “negativity”, “fear”, “racism”…and, by doing this, he certainly solidifies his liberal, young, & black base.
Some folks actually have done research on this campaign, and we see Obama as very intelligent, yes, but mostly, very ambitious. He likes to win, this is the only given.
Emil Jones propped Obama up in the Il Senate by listing Obama’s name on bills as a co-sponsor to pad his resume’, although Obama didn’t do work on these bills. Obama used procedural shenanigans to block other candidates from placing their names on the ballot in Il, so obviously, he won…that’s all that matters.
Why didn’t the press call Obama on his contradictory statements regarding his stance on the Iraq war? Why didn’t the press call Obama on his campaign rhetoric of not taking money from special interests. Factcheck clearly refuted his claim. Why didn’t the press point out how much money Obama has paid the superdelegates to date. Why did the press wait a year into the campaign to finally air the Rev. Wright controversy? I had read about Obama’s shady relationships over a year ago.
We’ve now got reporters coming out saying it is true they were so mesmerized by Obama early on they admit they didn’t report on him objectively. Tucker Carlson just last week said, he was certainly no Hillary supporter, but the press has clearly been in Obama’s corner. Lou Dobbs said he’s never seen such media bias against any one candidate as has been the case against Hillary. Pretty pitiful, to say the least.

1 out of 7 people say that they ‘think’ that Obama is a Muslim. They got that from successful lies by the right wing on the internet. They have email lists and they send out their lies.
I see emails which jam together the OSAMA and OBAMA intentionally. They put OSAMA in parentheses next to Michelle Obama’s name on emails I get from the hate-mongers.
I hear Republican candidates, intentionally mistake OSAMA and OBAMA.
I have little hope for America.

Again, he assumes average Americans are stupid. No need to campaign there, just throw a staged picture at people of Kentucky and they should vote for him. His arrogance and condescending attitude toward the middle class continues to offend people who see through his political tricks and manipulation of people’s values. Funny, he didn’t believe in wearing a flag pin until last week either! I wish the man would take a stand and stick with it, he waffles more than John Kerry ever did.

It really is offensive for a man that has agressively practised Black Liberation Theology which includes a healthy dose of anti-white teaching and Black separatism to want to try and pretend he is mainstream in Oregon….I find the current trend in both Huckabee and Obama to try and use their religion to get votes as offensive as when Bush did it.
I also think it is hypocrisy for Obama to try and advertise that his church and religion is “mainstream” Many of Trinity’s teachings and certainly the Rev Wright’s writings are based in large part on Farrakan’s perverted branch of Black Islam….an anti-Isreal “hate” religion by and large made up by Farrakan. Then there are the the victimization validations of the “Cone” elements.
People in this primary are confused not because of the early emails….there were just as many sent our about Hillary Clinton.
People should really be confused by Obama’s hesitancy early on to denounce Wright (in large part Trinity teaches anti-White victimization).
Obama sat there for 20 years denies he heard anything and now seems shocked when Wright takes his sermons out of the pulpit and takes them public.
Separating himself from what he has listened to in church for 20 years and read in the church bulletin has been surprisingly easy with the cooperation of the media….I doubt any other candidate could have gotten away with this hoax…..For instance Hagee’s endorse mcCain has been used as some sort of equivalence by Obama. While Hamas and the Black Panthers and Farrakans endorsement of Obama have been quickly hidden from the public.
.

The fact is both Clinton and Obama are “elitests”. The difference between the two is that Obama is not quite as phoney as Clinton nor does he come off as a big panderer like Clinton does. Just give him some time though and he will make it to her league. Vote for Obama.

The difference is that Huck is a good man, Sen. Obama isn’t. Obama is a flip-flopper, and an empty suit. NO OBAMA!!!

ghm1,
Maybe I misunderstood the rules here. Are only liberal Democrats allowed to comment? Is that why you listed all the people you think are Republican? That seems to be the biggest insult you can muster. It certainly shows the level of discourse on the Obama side.

Mim, you wrote: “…then vote Republican, vote for high gas prices…”
I have stated this before and I will repeat it once again! The Democrats offer nothing that will ease the pain of the high price of gas. Instead their plans will only drive up the cost of gas even higher. They want to raise the federal tax on gasoline $1-$3. They have advocated, for years, that we Americans should be paying the same price as Europeans ($6-$8 per gallon). But they also want to implement a windfall tax on the oil companies’ profits. The oil companies use their profits for exploration, new drilling and distribution of oil, in addition to passing on some of the profits to their share holders. So with less exploration, less drilling and less ability to distribute the oil, supply can only decrease — which will drive up the price of gasoline. So a vote for the Democrats is a vote for even higher gasoline prices.

why does it matter what denomination a candidate is? why is religion so enmeshed in our government & politics? who cares if obama is muslim or christian? it should not even factor into the equation.

If Obama went to Church for 20 years, why was it that he only recently accepted Jesus? It sounds more like pandering to me. When will the people open their eyes and see that he just says what he thinks people want to hear. He wont answer direct questions with out changing the subject, even his press secretary said we can’t hold him to what he says in the campaign. My vote is going to Hillary.

dreyfus,
I agree, it should not matter but it actually does and the Dems have learned that the hard way.

I suggest that some of the commentators here look at the fact Obama has used his talents in service of others and his admission that he is not perfect.
Any one can put on a flag pin or a cross.
He’s the real deal

Elitism is a “mindset”, not a financial position.
Whether you like it or not, Hillary is much more comfortable talking to voters…Obama is more comfortable at huge rallies giving his rhetorical preacher-like stump speech. Being comfortable talking with voters one on one is a much more genuine attribute than having to revel in the self-aggrandizement of the big stage.
In a NH stop, Obama sat and listened to a woman lament on her economic situation, she began to cry about the loss of a job, and possibly losing her home…Obama never changed expressions…he just continued on telling her how he acquired his home in Illinois.
As Obama tried to relate to “common” folk, he mentioned the high price of “arugula”. He didn’t even realize how out of touch he sounded. It went right over his head.
Obama..in a closed door fundraiser with elite liberal San Francisco types, mentions why he has trouble reaching the blue collar workers. He thinks they’re bitter and cling to religion, guns, antipathy toward others, due to frustrations about their lives. He doesn’t realize the impact of this statement, but mostly, he didn’t expect it to be revealed.

The name calling and hate mongering is not coming from Obama supporters here, it is coming from those opposed to him.
The fact is, Republican fear mongerers, helped along by Hillary’s waffling, have spread rumors for months that Obama is a Muslim. Many Americans are extremely prejudiced against and suspicious of, Muslims. This flyer is a response to voters in W Va stating they did not vote for him because they believed he is a Muslim. Obama has a right to correct the misinformation being put out about him. Get over it, people! His faith was lied about, he’s trying to correct the lie. It is ridiculous that so many of us are such ignorant, bigoted, small-minded people, but there you have it – too, too many of us are, as evidenced by many of the comments posted in this thread.
RE Rev Wright – as far as I’m concerned, it was no more terrible for him to say what he did than it was for Pat Robertson or whichever Evangelical flak it was to say that the terrorist attacks on September 11 were punishment for America’s tolerance of homosexuality. They were equivilant statements. So, if you’re not going to get all self-righteous about one, you can’t do so about the other. If you ARE going to get all self-righteous, you have to apply the same standard to both – get it? I didn’t think so…ignorance must be bliss.

This “cross thing” is necessary. What else can he do when lies are spread that he is a Muslim?

I fought in Viet Nam and I support Obama.
As far as I can see, He’s done nothing ‘wrong’ I can see except be born with a dark skin complexion.
Since when is being born Black, since when is that a sin in the eyes of GOD?
Maybe it’s a sin in the eyes of people who are racist haters, but not in GOD’s eyes.
Since when is that un-American?
That’s what we fought and died for, to protect our nation and the Constitution that states that ALL people are seen as equal under the eyes of God, freed from the prejudices of the old world.
The man, Obama, has spoken from his heart, admitted his faults and unlike Hillary, never lied 100 times that he was shot at by snipers in Bosnia.
Obama never lied unlike Hillary for years that he himself created a peace in N. Ireland.
Obama never falsely claimed like Hillary for 6 months that a girl died for lack of health care refuted it and threatened to sue her.
… all lies…
He laid his taxes out without protest when asked… unlike Hillary.
Obama didn’t go on TV and cry, sob… that the men were out to get here.
Obama didn’t inflate his resume and claim that he worked in the WH for 8 years, a purely honorary position, that does nothing more than give teas and meet with wives of foreign leaders.
That’s why 10 retired General officers of the US Military, support Obama as C-I-C. How many support Clinton?
None. Not even one.
Speaks volumes.
I have spoken.

Obama is just a smooth operator, he knows when to connect (to Christ) when to cut (his pastor) all for political expediency, at his convenient. How can we ever trust this guy. Please cut him off for the good of America

NinaK,
I think that 17% to which you are referring were actually asked if race were a factor in their decision. Now that is a very broad question and people could easily answer, “Yes,” if they were thinking about Rev. Wright and all that debacle. Does that mean they would never vote for a black person? I think not. I recall being perplexed by the actual question posed to the voters by the pollsters. It really was aimed at presenting them as racist, no matter what.

It’s interesting and disheartening to read posts (here and elsewhere) that allude to “facts.”
Remember, there are three kinds of truth, but only one that is real:
Truth as I see it.
Truth as you see it.
And the real truth.
The third truth is only for those who would heal this world. The first two truths are for all those who would destroy hope.

For those of you impressed by Obama’s credentials and think they automatically transfer into being a good president please remember:
George W. Bush went to Andover Academy
Yale undergrad, and got his MBA from Harvard. Please don’t mistake credentials for smarts and ability.

To Jim:
Bill Clinton was no hillbilly from Arkansas. He was a Rhodes scholar.
Do you even know what that is? Do you know how intelligent you need to be to earn a Rhodes scholarship?
You make my point. We need to elect the best and the brightest.
Mike laments that Obama is a “smooth operator” because he knows when to connect to Christ and when to cut his pastor.
Is this bad, having a president who knows when to do the right thing? Few were as “smooth” as Bill Clinton. They called him “Slick Willy” as if that was bad.
Do we prefer a bumbling, ignorant moron?

“Countalthevotes”
There is nothing wrong with what Jill has said. The “DUMB” comment bites but it is as sad as it is true.
Americans have a reputation for being ignorant and if there is anything these primaries have proven: you cannot speak the same language to all electorates.
Even Clinton understood that hence her schizophrenic personality changes since January.

Amy in Louisvile:
So you guys are bunch of fake Christians going to church on Sunday thinking yall are playing with God. So you guys don’t know the scripture where God sees and knows all. You better remember the way out this world and put aside this election process. Listening to you talk, we know you where your home will end. Heaven want contain just White People get use to it or choose the other.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I’m not proud of it, but, I guess he doesn’t realize that in even Louisville, the evangelicals would be horrified at the thought of having a black man in their church. This will only turn them off.
That’s what you get for practicing these OLD politics.
Go Hillary! 08!

We humans are irrational, emotional, illogical creatures. Hard to pry us off our preconceived notions even if they are not based on truth. Like: Obama’s so called elitism. He was raised by a single mom. She didn’t have her way paid in school. Her parents, Obama’s grandparents, weren’t wealthy. Grandpa was a salesman and had many financial ups and downs. His grandmother worked her way up to VP after many, many years. We should celebrate that! Nothing was handed to him. He went to those great schools on scholarship which he earned through his hard work and intelligence. Isn’t that the American way? Or are we just lying, narrow minded bullies? I would hope not. Americans, we are so far better than all this. We can be magnificent if only we dare to overcome our fears and divisions. Ours is a beautiful country filled with diverse, wonderful people and we have a lot of issues to tackle. We need clarity about our problems and stop fighting one another.

Is there a way to determine what amount of fund that Obama Campaign received so far comes from Middle East / North African donors?
And especially what amount from the citizens of Saudi Arabia?

I’ve got the children to tend
The clothes to mend
The floor to mop
The food to shop
Then the chicken to fry
The baby to dry
I got company to feed
The garden to weed
I’ve got shirts to press
The tots to dress
The can to be cut
I gotta clean up this hut
Then see about the sick
And the cotton to pick.
and this election to win give honor where Honor is do Hillary has earned hers.any woman out there should be mad about the treatment of Hillary Clinton I don’t care who you are for.

As a former Democrat for over 30 years…I finally gave up. The party has left me and countless others behind and embraced a schizophrenic approach resembling a patch quilt with clearly conflicting parts.
From here on out – I’m independent and voting hardcore to the conservative right, where the Democratic party was a generation ago.
Goodbye Dems.

Obama hung his pastor out to dry after a 20 year releationship.
Obama is not religous. He just used religion for polital gain in Chicago.
Listen to Obama’s San Fran speech.
The guy sounds like karl marx in claiming that the disenfranchised cling to religion because they have nowhere else to turn.
This is the same old politics, nothing new about it. Nothing.

I don’t have a religion, and I don’t trust god-preaching hypocrites.
The definition of elitism is below. By definition, every candidate, and most of the people in this country fall into an elitist category. If we don’t have money, we consider ourselves better because we are part of a group or because we have a degree. If we have money, well, hell, we can buy what makes us look good.
Obama was trying to get in the “Elitist” community in KY, which consists of a bunch of churchgoers that (oh my god, she’s not just about to say) cling to their guns and their bibles.
To the chagrin of New York bloggers, no, Obama must talk about things more important to the constituency in KY. Yes, it is politics. Do you think he should go to KY and tell them that they would be better if they were NY?
NO MATTER WHAT DIRECTION YOU LOOK IN; NO MATTER WHAT OPINION YOU ARE OF, PEOPLE ALWAYS SUCK FOR SOMETHING. STOP BEING PETTY RETARDS.
e·lit·ism or é·lit·ism (ĭ-lē’tĭz’əm, ā-lē’-) Pronunciation Key
n.
The belief that certain persons or members of certain classes or groups deserve favored treatment by virtue of their perceived superiority, as in intellect, social status, or financial resources.
The sense of entitlement enjoyed by such a group or class.
Control, rule, or domination by such a group or class.

These primaries have proved that some Americans will distort information and believe in anything to avoid voting a person of colour into office.
Fortunately, the country is changing and they will be dragged into the new America kicking and screaming.

As for that flag pin, everybody is so stired up about, If you noticed at the begining of the nomination talks, Obama was wearing the flag pin, then afterward he wasn’t, when asked on a talk show what happen, he said I lost it, and didn’t think it nessary to get another to wear, if only he would have know the stupidty, of X amt. of american voters to make such an issue over it, I’m sure he would have gotten another, but since George Bush wears one, maybe he thought better of it! It’s not what we wear that makes up the heart, and what we do, if so, bush has been just a wonderfull pres.! HA! vote OBAMA 08

Also, it seems that people who are opposed to Obama only remember the falsehoods spread about him and react very angrily about it. They have never really read and reflected on anything he has said. Example: now he’s wearing a flag pin but he doesn’t deserve to because he didn’t serve in Vietnam and hates our country. People, come on – how obviously wrong is that? He clearly loves this country, else why would he choose to return here in his teenage years? This is his home just as it is ours. Why are we so afraid of other countries anyway – when John Kerry travelled and spoke another language; when his wife is multilingual…this is an asset. America is part of a large world with many languages and cultures and we should elect a president who can speak more than English and is a well rounded human being. He never refused to wear the flag pin. He just didn’t want to wear it mindlessly like so many people who did so like a 2nd grader saying, “This is the club I belong to – you don’t wear the pin, you don’t belong.” This land is our land. W/not we wear a pin doesn’t change that. No one ever challenged Clinton or McCain about that and they often are seen without one. Get a grip people!

Vote for the issue not for the skin color. Who chose to be white or black & granted his/her wish. Racism is ignorance, and thats why we are witnessing terrorism. Its time for those of us knows how to write & read to educate others.

Falsehoods will not change destiny.
A man of color will soon be president and there is nothing you can do about it.
Americans are ready for change.

Keep up the good work Jake! Next, let’s talk about why Hillary HAD to appear as a “hawk”…just like Obama HAS to appear a regular Christian, lower 48 American.
Why do people in Obama’s campaign talk about how he is related to Cheney, but not about how he is related to a Kenyan Muslim family? Especially when his last name is Obama, not Cheney?

Agathe
Do you think Obama is good for the word? I don’t think so. He knows nothing about foreign policy, and the economy. Maybe he don’t know what is his program.

I see Obama has also gone to Florida and Michigan recently. Many of the voters there are pretty irritated at him, and I guess he thinks he can simply go over and smooth things out, and they’ll vote for him in November.
Thing is: The rules of the DNC only state the delegates can’t be seated..it says nothing about voters being invisible as well. The voters clearly spoke.
In MI..the names on the ballot were: Clinton, Dodd, Kucinich, Uncommitted. Obama sent out mailers urging voters to vote “uncommitted”..and many did.
In FL..Obama runs a national ad for two weeks, and still loses big.
Obama complains the party leaders broke the rules, so we can’t possibly revisit this issue, eventhough, Obama himself broke the rules as well. In most elections, these rules would be symbolic at best, but in this highly historic race, to not revisit this issue, gives credence to an illegitimate nominee.
Obama also complained he didn’t have a chance to campaign, but when given the chance to a revote, Obama balked. He would have been able to campaign as vigorously as he wanted, and outspend Hillary his usual 3 to 1, but he still refused. Obama looks mighty afraid.
I don’t see FL and MI voters forgiving him too quickly for disenfranchising them. Hillary is actually ahead in the popular vote, whether anybody counts them or not.

Okay…again this is pathetic reporting. This whole cross thing is the most hypocritical and pandering stunt in all of the campaign(s). And you are saying this is going to work? You really believe people are that stupid? Obama can’t be all things to all people unless he really has a God complex. Well, maybe he does believe he is the second coming.
Lordie Lord…may God help America.

It is silly to think that if there is a God that any person can be doing his work. It is logical to think that God can and will do his own work and that to say that you are doing God’s work is lessening God and encouraging the worst kind of projection of man’s limitations upon the Almighty.

We are electing a President not a a Religious leader..It seems that Obama wants to be the new messiah. Obama is using religion because he wants to
fool you while he hides his left wing tendencies.

The French for Obama????? Need we say more???
Go Hillary 08
FROM PANAMA (The country where, due to your corruption and inefficiency, you could not finish the Canal and the Americans had to bail you out!)

Oh and so if 9.99 out of 10 black people vote for Mr. Barack Obama it’s not racially motivated, but if anyone points out that Obama is NOT A GOOD CANDIDATE they are racist?
Don’t create a double standard, it will not help anyone in the end. It’s also the stuff that makes people hate each other!!
THE POINT IS: EVERY AMERICAN HAS THE RIGHT TO VOTE FOR WHOEVER THEY WANT!! INCLUDING THE 2+ MILLION PEOPLE OF FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN!!

What a waste of space!
Obviously quite a number of Americans have not interacted with anybody beyond their neighbourhood.
Enough with the Islamophobia. Obama is not a Muslim.

Barack Obama is a Christian. It is shameful at how ignorant and just plain stupid some people in our country can be. The presidential election in 2004 proved that.
Wake up, people, and get educated before you vote. Vote on real issues, and not on phony baloney.
The states that have the highest percentage of college graduates are the East Coast states, and the West Coast states as well as Minnesota and Wisconsin. The state of Washington has the highest percentage of college graduates in the nation. All of these states almost always vote Democrat in presidential elections.
I don’t want 100 more years of war, 100 more years of record setting costs of gas and oil, and 100 more years of an economic recession.
Will McCain have a military draft if he is elected President? He can’t have a 100 year war in Iraq without a military draft.
VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA AND LETS GET A DEMOCRAT WIN IN NOVEMBER!

Hillary or Obama. They are both MUCH better than McCain. And let’s face it, all three are to an extent ”elitist.” They are all well-educated, rich, ivy league people. And religion shouldn’t matter as much as morals do, which is another thing Hillary and Barack have more than McBush.

If Hillary had put out a flier saying the same things that Senator Obama said you haters would not have a problem with it.
Hillary has run a disgusting, hateful and negative campaign. No one has questioned her beliefs nor her pastor. I believe Hillary is about Hillary and about being president at all costs. No one has gone to Hillary’s church and checked out her pastor and what he gas said over the last 20 years. Maybe it’s because he isn’t saying much of anything, hence the reason for Hillary’s behavior.

Tapper: your anti-Obama campaign is getting rather boring.
Reports on sweetie, flag pins and Obama’s faith?
All this and I can barely meet my bills!!!

“Oh old hillary can throw back shots like a drunk, have no apparent grounding in faith, can be as negative as can be and still be portrayed as Saint and Obama who has actively worked in a church, demonstrates the sacrifice of forgoing wallstreet to work on the chicago street helping the least of these.”
He gave up Wall Street in exchange for the Presidency of the United States which is being handed over to him in a silver platter.
Clinton has proven to have more passion, faith and spirituality in her fingernail than Mr. Obama. But someone in this blog is right; this is not about religion it is about the issues which he handles badly, also. Not as bad as McCain, though and that is why he will be president. Poor America you have been blindsided by the media and the power behind the Democratic Party BIG TIME. The sad thing is that we are ALL affected. The entire world is affected.

We missed you Jake!
I think Obama should send KY voters a copy of his church newsletter. They can get to know his new pastor and other info about Black Liberation Theology.
A newsletter might provide some insight as to why he chose this particular church-(known to be one of the most radical in Chicago)to find himself and his faith-for 20 years.
Obama is so arrogant- he thinks a picture of a cross will convince those poor “bitter” KY voters that he is OK.
They are way too smart and can spot a phony from miles away.

“GET REAL PEOPLE!!!
AFRICAN AMERICANS HAVE VOTED FOR WHITE DEMOCRATS DECADE AFTER DECADE.
Why accuse them for racism for voting for Obama this time?”
Kelly, my deepest appreciation for unmasking this country’s socio-political myopia.

Senator Obama is a Christian.
I hope and trust that you will allow him to express his freedom of religion..as he will certainly strive to protect your freedom of religion.

A lot of christians support abortion including myself.

First, this pamphlet about religion has been around since February. I have volunteered for the campaign and seen it in New York and Pennsylvania – so it’s not new. And, it’s obviously needed to combat the misinformation that’s out there about Obama’s faith. (15% think he’s muslim?? – even after Rev. Wright???)
Second, Rabin Deka (who posted at May 18, 2008 1:57:18 PM) must never have put his or her money where his mouth is, because if you did, you would know that you MUST be a US citizen to donate to the presidential election.
STOP with the attempts to smear him! It’s either ignorance or maliciousness, but either way it’s wrong.
We are all US citizens who are donating to presidential campaigns – even (or perhaps especially) OBAMA! Go Barack! POTUS 44

The proof that the media is right wing is found in how one must search to find information about what a hypocritical crook McCain is. He’s been influence peddling since he became a Senator; just look up Keating five. And if you want to see more recent evidence look up McCain land swap, where he gave away develop able federal land on a swap for unusable scrub. Isn’t a man who dumps an invalid wife for a pretty, younger, rich one something of a scum bag? At least for people with morals he is.

Hillary, Hillary, go away
Don’t come back some other day
Barack Obama is here to say
Hillary, Hillary, go away.

Save this country and write in
Hillary Clinton on election days.
Obama and McCain just don’t get it…..
this country needs Hillary’s strength and leadership.

Smear all you want – lie, scream, cheat, live in a state of denial and ignorance.
Obama is the presumptive Democrat nominee because many chose to find out the TRUTH for themselves INSTEAD OF RELYING ON RUSH LIMBAUGH and his emailing cronies.

countallthevotes,
I appreciate your information. That was a concise history. However, it was a bit full of judgement. Sorry, but it came through that way. I’ll continue to do research, and I encourage you to do the same.
As I read, Obama’s mother moved to Indonesia as she’d married an Indonesian whose student visa had been revoked from the U of Hawaii (and was conscripted into the Indonesian army). Obama went on to say that he attended the Indonesian schools as they couldn’t afford the ‘international school’ (page 187-188, The Audacity of Hope). It looks like that was only a couple of years– from age 6-8??
I honestly haven’t finished reading the book.
As far as HRC, her parents were pretty wealthy. Her grandparents? Maybe not. McCain is the son of an Admiral, who was the son of an Admiral. So, yeah, pretty wealthy. It’s a fact of life (sadly) that the presidential candidates are all from wealth. We’d bash them as idiots from Idaho State (like me) if that weren’t true.
Still, I’ll read McCain’s book, too, if there is one. I’ll read HRC’s, if she somehow manages to topple popular opinion, which I doubt, and claim the nomination. That, too, is predicated that I can find a book that she’s written.
I’ve liked Obama’s ideas on racism, opportunity, and economics. So, McCain will have to do a pretty good job….
On the con side, though, Obama is pretty wordy. I come away with an understanding why people can say ‘all talk, no content.’ It takes a pretty close read to distill the perspective and the policy that would likely come from him as a president. It IS there, though.
I appreciate your response. I wish you the best.

The press needs to take a real look into their chosen candidate. He is not perfect – Palmer, Rezzo, Wright, Land Deal, just to name a few of his crimes.
They need to finally realize that Obama just doesn’t have the knowledge and skills to to POTUS.
Then again, that’s why Kennedy, Pelosi, and Kerry want him……puppet.
Hillary would stand up to everyone in the Congress and Senate….no matter what party they belong too.

Obama’s background is most similiar to typical Americans-he took out loans to attend law school and still was in debt until he signed his book deal. McCain, Hillary and almost everyone who has been president or VP comes from earning millions and millions of dollars. They accept campaign money from corporations and lobbysists, yet tell us they want to make changes to benefits the average person. If you have never been a part of the low or middle class, you do no understand the daily struggles. Obama is not corrupt and owes no corporations or lobbysists favors because his donations are from regualr americans like you and me. Regardless of political parties and political views-politics are run by corporations and special interest groups. That is why we are such huge debt (in addition to the Iraq war cost), have declining status based on public education compared to otehr developed countries, have one of the highest prison rates, the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer and middle class are not advancing and oil prices continue to rise. The oil companies made record profits last year and will make close, if nto more than that next year, because they have realized how much we depend on oil and can pretty much charge wha they want. Bush is not asking the oil companies to reduce prices. He is from Texas for gosh sake. Cheny-also from an ebergy backgroun made 21 million dollars last year. Can you figure that our??? Obama is America’s best chance to make this country better than it has been for years. What is Hillary or McCain going to do to help you and your family with your daily struggles-Obama was nto raised with a silver spoon and because he has not been in Washington too long, he is not corrupt like most other politicians. Keep you facts straight and stop falling into the traps of the sensationalized media portraying stories that have nothing to do with the real issues. For those who are “religious” I am sure that you have attended a service where a preacher has said something that you have not liked, and if you are from W. Virginia, the Southern state-you probably have heard worst comments that Wright-you just would never admit it-not would it end up on the news. If you really think about it, most people who don’t vote for Obama should be rich republicans or people who cannot elect a candidate because he is half black-which is extremely ignorant-but yes, racisim is still alive in America, even today unfortunately. If not, you are looking at race (even thought Obama is half white) or religion (where there is seperation of church and state-gay marriage is decided by the states, not the federal government and abortion rights will never be overturned completely) to make your decision, which is absolutely ridiculous.

Who can trust an individual who sat for 20 years listening to Jeremiah Wright’s words of hate for America and whites?
Yes, Barack Hussein Obama sat in Wright’s congregation holding hands with the overly jubilated members as they celebrated the sad and terrible incident of 9/11. Barack sat for 20 years listening and believing the demented theories of how whites created AIDS to eliminate blacks and many other sick stories of persecution.
Who can trust Barack?

VelShan; I couldn’t agree more.
Obama has certainly brought a lot of social issues to the surface.
I hope that most people will also take time to listen to what he has to say instead of screaming Islam! Black! Elite!
Difference inspires irrational fear.

Right you are Ralph. I kind of notice how Jake Tapper takes one view. Perhaps I read this when he only talks of Obama.
Hillary for Prez!

I love Jake Tapper’s view and I love Hillary Clinton. If you want Obama, go read another blog!

If the Republicans wanted a nominee this year who personified the brain death of their party, they couldn’t have picked a better one than John McCain. Ideas have never been the Arizona senator’s strong suit, even when the conservative tide was surging. McCain’s calling card has always been his biography, as those who run his campaign and craft his ads know well.
The one issue that McCain has always cared about is the honor of the American military, as he defines it. Leaving Iraq would dishonor those soldiers who fought and died there. Torturing our enemies would dishonor those soldiers as well. McCain comes from a military family and has always had to live up to the code of his father and grandfather, for whom military service was both a way of life and the highest form of patriotism. On other matters, his ideas amount to so much boilerplate, to the received truths of the conservative mainstream that he is recycling in this year’s campaign, no matter their relevance to American’s current state.
Consider his economic platform. McCain proposes making George W. Bush’s massive tax cuts for the rich permanent and cutting corporate tax rates by 10 percent — proposals which, if enacted, would increase our budget deficit by a cool $2 trillion to $3 trillion over the next decade. To fix the faltering economy, he proposes a summer suspension of the gas tax — a $50 to $100 one-time seasonal tax reduction in the face of rising costs and stagnant incomes. The only economic issue that has engaged McCain’s interest is congressional earmarks, which total, by his measure, roughly $18 billion in a $14 trillion economy (less than 1 percent). His crusade against earmarks then really isn’t an economic issue at all; it is merely a way the politically astute McCain distinguishes himself from his ostensibly more political colleagues.
McCain has never shown much passion for or interest in economic or social causes. His default position is conventionally conservative on issue after issue, and there’s no reason to believe a McCain presidency would take another course.

i know the voters of kentucky are smart enough to see how obama is playing them.
for him to have sat in the church he has sat in for 20years and now to put out this flyer-is an insult.
I think the only people in Kentucky who will buy this are the Black people-and they will set out to continue to make excuses for him. no matter what he does.
My black brothers and sisters are showing their “racial pride” for a black man to be president is so desperate now they will accept,make excuses,threaten anything for obama.
makes no difference if everyday he is proving a little more and more he should not be president, he is black and it must be.
mr. obama said he found God in this church and became a christian, and then,
after 20year-but within a few months he has had to denounce the man who helped him to God.,obama has now started wearing a flagpin-after laying out that long explaination of why he didn’t wear one.
I just hope his soul is still intact once he get the white house.
we didn’t know him. what we do know about him raises more questions, and what he has told us-he is changing as the times or situation calls for.
sill leave me asking, who is obama and what exactly does he stand for, and exactly what is he going to do for me and mine, other americans,
and yes-I have got the “hope and change” message, but what is the rest of the story?

Jess,
It must be lonely at your flat. The fact that you can’t vote in our election is not lost on me… and I’m thankful of that. There is no reason that I care about anyone’s grandparents. HRC’s, or Obama’s, or McCain’s. My own are long since gone. While they have some influence in life… these are all grown people with lives for which only they can answer– a grandparent is free of blame or credit. So, there is no “issue” or “argument” for which I am obliged to answer. In short, “pack sand.” I’ll not respond again.

Vote Hillary, I love these “I’m so shocked/look it up!” type of posts. So I looked it up and it’s 57 nations, not “states” that organized in 1969.
“The Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) is an international organization with a permanent delegation to the United Nations. It groups 57 nations, most of which are Islamic, from the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, Caucasus, Balkan, Southeast Asia, South Asia and South America. The official languages of the organization are Arabic, English and French.” Wikipedia
Maybe the sky isn’t falling, afterall. But I’m sure there are people who will go no farther than reading your scare tactic attempt. As they say, perception beats the facts.

I’m so tired of the right wing talking points that i can’t understand how anyone can think they are reasonable. You really should stop listening to Rush and Hannity both of them leave critical information out of their arguements against Democrats. If you beleive that right now is the time for more de-regulation of Corporations, the continued power of Lobbiest and those they represent, staying in Iraq until God knows when and tax cuts that mainly benifit the rich. Vote for McCain. The points I just mentioned are why you should support him and the facts supporting why this is better is how you should frame your arguement against Obama
This Guilt by association argument works against anyone who has a long list of people who they rely on for public office. Here is how the arguement works (this is all fact by the way) McCain’s mother hates Mormons. She claimed this during a live interview on MSN. Because McCain didn’t denounce her and he has been listening to her anti-Mormon retoric for so long how can we trust him to stand up for religous freedom in this country. Also according to his preacher he has never come up to the alter and publicly accepted Crist at his church, so there are doubts he is even a Christian (in the true sense). How can he represent America if he doesn’t even beleive in God and has been pretending to be a man of faith when he obviously is not. He did call the Christian Group led by Jerry Falwel “agents of intolerance” What is even more frightening about McCain is that 2 of his staff members have lobbied on behalf of the dictatorship government of Myanmar. These sorts of associations are troubling. What is a nominee for president doing employing people who represent a dictatorship. What were they doing on Myanmar’s behalf and what does this say about McCain’s friends values? How is he affected by these people who he surrounds himself with who are so sympathetic to dictators that they lobby their anti-civil (or any) rights style governments values to America? Obviously, there is a section of McCain’s inner circle who support taking away of the people’s civil liberties. How will this play out if the American people elect him president (it is scarey)
All of you Hannity idoits take note— anyone can be smeared through guilt by association. The amazing thing is how you people buy into it.

As a proud hard working white American, the dream ticket would be Jake Tapper and Hillary Clinton. Jake and Hillary speaks the truth of Obama.
I love my guns and whiskey!

Bertha, spare me the drama and learn how to read more carefully. I didn’t say blacks were racist for voting for Obama in part due to his race. Apparently that is your own insecurity. I’m black, and I don’t find anything wrong with having racial pride. I do have a problem with people only pointing out when whites vote for Clinton, and I have a problem with the notion that white support for Clinton is inherently racist, but black support for Obama is just a coincidence.

I would not be surprised if Senator Obama had wrapped himself in a flag and carried a gun in one hand and the bible in the other to try to get the voters of West Virginia and Kentucky to vote for him. He will say or do anything to get elected. He is a pathetic man, not worthy of the Presidency.

November is the word now.
So, Clintonians have actually conceded the primaries?
The Hill missed the memo!

Sarah, I have long believed he would win. but since that time, agreed not to vote for him in november. clinton can stay in the race regardless. it can be a longshot and she can stay in. just like you applying to “dream” schools but only getting in the safety.

When Obama mentions his faith, I think of Trinity United Church and Jeremiah Wright. I mean really, what am I supposed to think of??? Don’t want this near the White House.

wow tony,
i just read your essay, it is great and so true. please send to obama and the dnc. and sent to all major news outlets.
cnn and msnbc nbc they probably will not do anything about it but they will not be able to say they did not know.

Sarah – if I’m sexist, then don’t vote for me in November. See — that’s how it works! The party/candidate is sexist. I don’t vote for the part/candidate. Ta da.

and herb,
we have not seen your name around here before.
who are you?
better still i would like to know exactly who obama is and what is he going to do

jgaw and tony and anyone interested in truth and accuracy,
I assume some of you have read Obama’s book in which he recounts his time in high finance in NYC, post-Columbia. Well, it seems some of his co-workers read his book and sharply disagree with his account. Take a look and see what I mean. Obama writes fiction, pure and simple and embellishes his resume. Other than writing these two books, I do not see real achievements that would qualify him for POTUS.
Barack Obama Embellishes His Resume
Don’t get me wrong – I’m a big fan of Barack Obama, the Illinois freshman senator and hot young Democratic Party star. But after reading his autobiography, I have to say that Barack engages in some serious exaggeration when he describes a job that he held in the mid-1980s.I know because I sat down the hall from him, in the same department, and worked closely with his boss. I can’t say I was particularly close to Barack – he was reserved and distant towards all of his co-workers – but I was probably as close to him as anyone. I certainly know what he did there, and it bears only a loose resemblance to what he wrote in his book.
Here’s Barack’s account:
Eventually a consulting house to multinational corporations agreed to hire me as a research assistant. Like a spy behind enemy lines, I arrived every day at my mid-Manhattan office and sat at my computer terminal, checking the Reuters machine that blinked bright emerald messages from across the globe. As far as I could tell I was the only black man in the company, a source of shame for me but a source of considerable pride for the company’s secretarial pool.
First, it wasn’t a consulting house; it was a small company that published newsletters on international business. Like most newsletter publishers, it was a bit of a sweatshop. I’m sure we all wished that we were high-priced consultants to multinational corporations. But we also enjoyed coming in at ten, wearing jeans to work, flirting with our co-workers, partying when we stayed late, and bonding over the low salaries and heavy workload.
Barack worked on one of the company’s reference publications. Each month customers got a new set of pages on business conditions in a particular country, punched to fit into a three-ring binder. Barack’s job was to get copy from the country correspondents and edit it so that it fit into a standard outline. There was probably some research involved as well, since correspondents usually don’t send exactly what you ask for, and you can’t always decipher their copy. But essentially the job was copyediting.
It’s also not true that Barack was the only black man in the company. He was the only black professional man. Fred was an African-American who worked in the mailroom with his son. My boss and I used to join them on Friday afternoons to drink beer behind the stacks of office supplies. That’s not the kind of thing that Barack would do. Like I said, he was somewhat aloof.
…as the months passed, I felt the idea of becoming an organizer slipping away from me. The company promoted me to the position of financial writer. I had my own office, my own secretary; money in the bank. Sometimes, coming out of an interview with Japanese financiers or German bond traders, I would catch my reflection in the elevator doors—see myself in a suit and tie, a briefcase in my hand—and for a split second I would imagine myself as a captain of industry, barking out orders, closing the deal, before I remembered who it was that I had told myself I wanted to be and felt pangs of guilt for my lack of resolve.
If Barack was promoted, his new job responsibilities were more of the same – rewriting other people’s copy. As far as I know, he always had a small office, and the idea that he had a secretary is laughable. Only the company president had a secretary. Barack never left the office, never wore a tie, and had neither reason nor opportunity to interview Japanese financiers or German bond traders.
Then one day, as I sat down at my computer to write an article on interest-rate swaps, something unexpected happened. Auma called. I had never met this half sister; we had written only intermittently. …[several pages on his suffering half-sister] …a few months after Auma called, I turned in my resignation at the consulting firm and began looking in earnest for an organizing job.
What Barack means here is that he got copy from a correspondent who didn’t understand interest rate swaps, and he was trying to make sense out of it.
All of Barack’s embellishment serves a larger narrative purpose: to retell the story of the Christ’s temptation. The young, idealistic, would-be community organizer gets a nice suit, joins a consulting house, starts hanging out with investment bankers, and barely escapes moving into the big mansion with the white folks. Luckily, an angel calls, awakens his conscience, and helps him choose instead to fight for the people.
Like I said, I’m a fan. His famous keynote speech at the Democratic National Convention moved me to tears. The Democrats – not to mention America – need a mixed-race spokesperson who can connect to both urban blacks and rural whites, who has the credibility to challenge the status quo on issues ranging from misogynistic rap to unfair school funding.
And yet I’m disappointed. Barack’s story may be true, but many of the facts are not. His larger narrative purpose requires him to embellish his role. I don’t buy it. Just as I can’t be inspired by Steve Jobs now that I know how dishonest he is, I can’t listen uncritically to Barack Obama now that I know he’s willing to bend the facts to his purpose.
Once, when I applied for a marketing job at a big accounting firm, my then-supervisor called HR to say that I had exaggerated something on my resume. I didn’t agree, but I also didn’t get the job. But when Barack Obama invents facts in a book ranked No. 8 on the NY Times nonfiction list, it not only fails to be noticed but it helps elevate him into the national political pantheon.
For the comments see this link. Many other co-workers weigh in:
http://www.analyzethis.net/blog/2005/07/09/barack-obama-embellishes-his-resume/

Josh,
HOw do you know what “Barack” thinks?? Obama supporters talk as if they have a personal connection with him. He has created a myth; you have fallen in love with that myth. I do hope it works out for you.

Jenny said: “Another Clintonian crawls out of the woodwork to smear.
Bet, I could do the same thing with Bosnia Hillary’s book.”
I’M SURE. But Obama is supposed to be soooooo different, when he’s just the same ole, same ole….

Jenny,
If you followed the link I provided you would find many of Obama’s co-workers attesting to the fact that his account of the “finanacial institution” and his responsibilities were pure fiction. And there were so many co-workers asserting that.

hey…..
Hillary is still in the race…. and needs our support!
Just because the Obamaniacs call her down and out doesn’t make it so.
Their perceptivity is skewed and colorblinded….
(If he can sound sexist, I can sound racist…. though colorblind and perceptivity colorblind can’t occur without perceptivity)
They spread lies about this race being OVER. Well, It’s NOT!!!
And this guy is glad!
(snipped from Kentuckian 051808):
“MY FELLOW AMERICANS……Barack Obama has finally crossed the line!!!!!!!!! Obama has gone too far!!! He has insulted every Vietnam Vet in West Virginia and Kentucky. Obama has no right to finally stick on his flag pin now, stage all those flags behind him and attempts to align himself or address the Vietnam War. WV. and KY. are largely vets, patriots, Bluegrass people, and we revere God, Country, and the American Flag and take this subject very seriously. I am sickened to see Obama act like he knows what it means to be a Vietnam Vet. Obama has no idea what patriotism means. No matter what the other states say that voted for Obama, KY. and WV. say it DOES matter who Obama aligns himself with and in bed with. WV. and KY. are going to say it LOUD AND CLEAR with our vote is for Hillary. Obama can bypass us with his trash talk. I for one am appalled and sicken by the God, Country, Jesus, and the Flag hating states and superdelegates that voted for Obama; they are betrayers of this great country. ”
As you can see,not everyone is for B O!
My vote will be for Hillary Clinton
because she has the strength and the brain and the chutzpa to bring our country out of these terrible economic times into a future of universal health care, job growth, and solutions on the devastating mortgage problems confronting too many of our home owners.
GIVE EM HELL, HILLARY!!!

Very hard to believe that Huckabee and
his people didn’t know that bookshelf in the background looked like a cross.
Obama is a Christiand and has attended churches around the country. The ministers like the fact that he usually stays the entire service instead of just for 5 minutes before running to the next church. Because the false rumors and emails persist that he is a muslim, the flier is wise and appropiate.
As for faith. It took a lot of faith to believe that a skinny guy named Barack Obama could become President of the United States.

On SNL, McCain said he’s very,
very, very old.
He’s also very, very, very
infirm to run for POTUS – a
job that would require him
to know whether he is coming
or going.
