What the FARC Was Obama Talking About?

Headline of the year!!!

I find the Obama campaign response to be more B.S. The fact is that Obama “parses” his words like the attorney he is… and he often gets caught on that. Obama is not a straight talker, but rather modifies his words at will. I guess he thinks that give him wiggle room… or maybe he is not strongly in charge of the facts.
Example: Obama “parsed” his words about his advisor meeting with Canada… He denied that his advisor met with/in the Canadian “embassy.” Technically, true because it was the Canadian “consulate.” Does it really matter? Maybe to a lawyer mind (Remind you of Bill Clinton?) Fact was that Obama’s advisor met with Candadian officials.
Bottom line… regarding Obama and Venezuela… Obama is in reality waffling… keeping his options open… being opportunistic to go either way as the events require.

Mr. Sen Obama,
Say whatever your voters want to hear. Don’t worry about right or wrong because nobody could prove it. If some bad things happened, blame someones made you did that but you did’t mean it.

Sounds like he lost his bearings.

blah, blah, blah
Do you know what would happen if the press didn’t feel compelled to write about SOMETHING regarding the campaigning EVERY few hours? Nothing. What was the last substantive story on the issues, any issue? How about a rundown of positions between McCain and Obama? How about a comprehensive story that dispels myths about both candidates? Sorry Clinton supporters, she ran a fairly good campaign and a woman will clearly be president at some point in my lifetime but it isn’t going to be this election.
The press’ job used to be to inform, not entertain.

Oh I forgot to answer the quest Abput what the Farc id Obama talking about.
It is about taking Chavez to task for supporting the FARC

Oh I forgot to answer the quest about what the Farc is Obama talking about.
It is about taking Chavez to task for supporting the FARC
I mis-typed

Only a few years in the senate and Obama thinks he can effectively lead this country. Pretty arrogant.
If his presidency becomes a big failure like Bush, the DNC will take the blame for backing a weak, inexperienced, unqualified candidate.
Only 46 years old and Obama is losing his bearings.
Hillary or McCain (tough and qualified)

Obama also said Iran was a small country that posed little threat…
The next week Obama said Iran was a “grave” threat.
I think this president stuff is a little harder than Obama thought.
He probably hoped big rallies and a winning smile would be enough.
Hillary or McCain (real leaders)

Okay. On one hand, we have a candidate who has told substantial lies on several occasions and who is now implying that she’s staying in the race, which is already over, because someone might kill the winner.
On the other hand, we have a candidate who mispronounced the names of a couple of cities and whose comments on foreign policy are not completely understood by some hack reporter.
Like, those are completely and totally equal, dude.

Bridget,
No but if someone is arrogant for running against her and defeating her then she must be an Elitist for thinking that way.
Just twisting the logic I have seen on these numerous blogs.
A little humor if you will, sort of like Jake’s post here.

Either, Obama does ot know what he is talking about and hence the inconsistency as the statements are not grounded in any real knowledge, or he is, indeed, just a waffler here, pandering or backpeddling for political reasons. Either way, not admirable at all when it comes to important positions on foreign policy.
N.B., Joe Kennedy, former Congressman, is head of Citizens Energy Corp, a non-profit corporation based in Mass. For approximately 3 years Kennedy has contracted with Chavez and his government owned oil, to purchase oil at a 40% reduced rate to provide heating for poor people in 16 states. Note, there are TV ads aired on this in my state with the number to call. Joe Kennedy has “endorsed” Obama and has been stumping for him, along with his uncle Ted.

OK the joke is on us. It will be Hillary in 2008 or Hillary in 2012 — the lower the year number the higher the IQ of the Democratic Party. It’s looking like we might fail that IQ test though.

Hello, I´m from Venezuela and I do not support Hugo Chavez´s old leftist ideas, his errant international policies and offensive language, as MOST people in our country don´t either. I have in some degree supported Bush´s policy to Venezuela´s government, but Obamas´s idea that there could be a way to sit and talk (not compromise) and CONFRONT in a friendlier way but at the same time condenm the wrongs, might be a better way. We have to give peace a chance, as the song says. Don´t just judge the man (Obama) because of the name, skin color, it is better to judge him by his adult life behaviour, his ideas and his life´s work for the people. The guy´s really not perfect, and might has said things that seem contradictory, but he has good approaches to isues and problems. Don´t anger against a man just because you don´t like him.
And please always bear in mind that Venezuela´s government (that is Hugo Chavez) is NOT what MOST of the Venezuelan people belief. When U.S. candidates or journalists refer to Chavez as ¨Venezuela¨ is really not fair to Venezuelan citizens´s historical democratic strong beliefs and peace support. It´s like when they say the U.S. supports the war in Irak…the U.S. government supports it, but not most of the U.S citizens. Thank you.

You’re absulutly right. I’m not an American, and I think this election is a joke. I said it so many times. The world laugh at America again. I have a favorite candidate but I respect the others. I read so many disgusting comments and articles. Why can’t the people just talk about the issues?

…adn when you look at the numbers the democrats should win 1.5 to 1 over the republicans this year…
the only thin that influences that negatively has been this long primary.
the number of Hillary supporters defecting will not cancel that number out…
That is why all these polls at the height of this campaign when Hillary was attacking the most…showed numbers that had obama pretty much tied with McCain
If you all think that most Hillary supporters are going to vote for McCain (which is how they answered out of anger and with no worry of ramifications in those polls) you need to get out more.
Most Hillary supporters care about their kids, the issues and this country more than their own spiteful anger. Because most Hillary supporters are smart, caring, thoughful Americans who put the value of this country over being spiteful.
So all those who say Obama is going to lost can go check their numbers… because your reasoning needs some facts introduced into them.

“Only a few years in the senate and Obama thinks he can effectively lead this country. Pretty arrogant.”
Only one year, and he was running for president. It was said better by others before, but basically his statements reflect a lack of deep knowledge of world and domestic affairs that Hillary has and he is stumbling through talking points given him by Axelrod.
I thank Jake for a column to discuss this.
Hillary ’08

If he becomes president, this is just a taste of what is to come.
mr. obama may be a nice man, and with a few more years in the senate he may have become a great leader.
but to high to soon. makes for a quick fall.
he should have taken his own advice,
he said in an interview,
i don’t think i am ready yet, i need to get some more experience..
and that is wise advice,
he should have stuck with it…

Don’t you worry your pretty little head. We WILL vote for McCain and we WILL be happy about it. At least he is not a bumbling idiot that doesn’t even know where he is in the USA.
War Hero vs. Big Dumb Idiot..hmm
I’ll take the War Hero Thank you

Being from The Sunshine State you would have thought I would have seen it on one of the local news outlets. The local media was to busy fawning over him. The FARC gaff we should have heard about on CNN/MSNBC, better know as Obama Campaign Central.

ROFLMAO:
“Senior officials on Obama’s campaign believe Bill Clinton has the unique status and political gifts to reunite the party after such gaffes. They expressed confidence that the former president would rise above the perceived slights and grudges of a hard-fought campaign and work flat out for an Obama victory in November’s presidential election.”
“If anybody can put their arms around the party and say we need to be together, it is Bill Clinton,” a senior Obama aide said.
“He’s brilliant, he has got heart and he cares deeply about the country. It’s tricky because of his position as Hillary’s spouse, but his involvement is very important to us.
“Bill Clinton will give permission to Hillary supporters to come into our camp and become one party. He is critical to this effort.”

Obama And FARC
By INVESTOR’S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Friday, March 07, 2008 4:20 PM PT
Terrorism: The March 1 death strike by the Colombian army against FARC warlord Raul Reyes broke open a trove of contacts in his computer. So why did the name of Barack Obama turn up there?
Admiittedly, it pales compared with other material from the dead thug’s computer — such as FARC efforts to obtain uranium or Hugo Chavez’s $300 million support.
But the little Obama reference within the 15 FARC letters released by the Colombian government signals a disturbing pattern of contacts with rogue actors. It’s not the first time, and Obama has yet to distance himself.

countallthevotes,
i hope obama’ people didn’t say that!
obama tried to play down bill clinton’ good accomplishments with the economy
during his presidency.
after they accused the clinton’ of playing the race card, when they KNOW it was the Obama camp that first played the race card.
I knew this was going to happen.
when asked if she would campaign for sen. clinton
michelle obama said “i would have to think long and hard about that”
the obama camp have done everything they could to discredit the clintons.
so it almost seems sureal to have obama or any of his surrogates saying they need the clintons.
obama supporters and the obamas up to now have wanted the clinton’ to go on a long cruise.
I hope the clinton’ will.
obama does not deserve to have the clinton’ with him.
obama think they are so smart putting out the term the Clinton machine
and how they have beat them.
so let them go on without the clinton machine.

Thank you Jake. If it wasn’t for you we would never hear about Obama’s gaffs.

JB,
Notice how they admit Bill Clinton’s support for Obama might be complicated by the fact of his spouse. LOL
What planet are these people from????

Davey,
I do not think Obama speaking to foreign heads of state and terrorists, through his surrogates, in ways that undermine the US and its present President, is trivial. In fact, that kind of conduct is arguably treasonous.

Are you people absolutely sure this is the guy you want in the White House? I mean absolutely positively sure?

It’s b/c Obama has no EXPERIENCE. He’s in way over his head.
when I was little, I remember my older brother using words he didn’t know the meaning of but he would use them to appear smarter. and he would appear smarter. but he made absolutely no sense.
Obama has no idea what he’s getting himself into. Nor did Bush. Now look at us..

So what’s your point?
Is forgiving someone now a sin? He is forgiving and you think he is doing that b/cause he is a gaffe machine. What do you want him to do? Attack her? Listen Jake, Obama is far smarter than that. You guys in the media can’t get him into playing gutter politics w/ the clintons.
Jake, you would not stop lacing out on Obama, would you?

The way Obama continually has to update us on what he meant is unbelievable. Every issue, every sentiment of his he has to explain and explain till we give up trying to understand.
The White House’s phone bill will be huge if he becomes President with all the follow up calls to world leaders amending what he just said. Good Grief!

But, there is something extra to this. FARC is in this story, and I remember an article online with photos of murdered FARC terrorists who were found with a briefcase and Hugo Chavez papers, and Barack Obama was mentioned in the papers. The articles can be googled.
I just thought it was interesting that one of Obama’s “gaffes” concerned supporting FARC. An ooops? Maybe not. Obama seems clueless about foreign policy and foreign affairs–or is he?
–BTW, Bill Ayers loves Hugo Chavez and regularly visits Venezuela to meet with him. Also, Code Pink Jodie Evans (an Obama supporter and bundler) supports Chavez and there are photos with Evans and Chavez online.

Looks like BHO complete FUBARed that entire FARC thing.
First off, I will admit my ignorance.
Chavez, FARC and Venezuela/Columbia fit together how?
Second, shouldn’t OBAMA know what is what when it comes time to deal with them — isn’t it a bit like not knowing what the difference among Sunni and Shia and al Queda?
Third, when it comes to issues that matter…I’d say that death thing from Clinton to Obama still pisses me off EVEN when I think Obama should know what he is talking about from one day to the next.

As a few posters above have stated, there is a huge difference between misspeaking, and demonstrating a complete lack of knowledge regarding a subject.
With FARC and Chavez, Obama clearly should have done what he did with Hanford–just admit that he didn’t know what the heck he was talking about.
Hanford is the most toxic nuclear waste site in the US. Obama voted on a bill in 2005 regarding its clean up.
I don’t expect Obama to remember the details of every bill that he signs, but come on–Hanford has serious environmental and national security implications.
Obama should just be honest.
Even if that means that he just shrugs instead of pontificating and constantly re-defining what he “meant” on topics that are way beyond his grasp.

Seems pretty obvious to me that Obama’s just taking the opportunity the press is giving him to be the better man while they attack Hillary as a coincidental surrogate. Smart move from a smart campaign, if you ask me.

Obama says in the first year of his Presidency he will go to Iran, North Korea,Venezuela, and Cuba to talk with their leaders “without any preconditions”.Well Obama will need to take a teleprompter with him as the only time Obama makes an impression with his audience is when he speaks in front of a couple of teleprompters. Without the telepromters in front of him, Obama has been making a number of gaffes when he talks off the cuff. I can see it nowIn Iran when Obama speaks to Ahmedinajad I can just hear Obama say “ Hey you folks in Iran cling to your guns and god too much. If you would just follow my lead, I will take you to the promise land where there is hope and change and you can give up your god and guns and worship the new Allah, me. All you have to do is turn over your money, schools and churches to me and my buddies and we will show you the way. Rezco can handle the money. Bill Ayers can take over your schools, Rev. Wright can become one of your top Imams and I’ll be theTwelfth Imam that you believe is coming to save the world.In North Korea when Obama speaks to Prime Minister: Kim Yong-Il I can just hear Obama say: Hey Supreme Ruler…. you folks in North Korea can’t keep driving all those SUVs, eat all that food and keep your thermometers at 72 degrees, What do you think the rest of the world will think of you. I won’t stand for it that is not leadership.” Prime Minister: Kim Yong-Il tells Obama he is not in the USA and none of his people have SUVs or central air and are starving to death. Obama says. “Oh I forgot, the type of system you have in North Korea is the type of system I am trying to sell to the American people calling it “change we can believe in“. I commend you Prime Minister: Kim Yong-Il for already imposing such a system on your people. Good job keep up the good work.In Venezuela, when Obama speaks to President Hugo Chavez Obama will say “ Glad to be in Colombia President Chavez, I want to commend you for the action you took to quell the terrorism that was being wrecked upon your Nation by the FARC terrorists” President Chavez stops Obama before he can go any further as says “ Your geography is little off, you are in Venezuela, not Colombia and I was supporting the FARC terrorists.” Obama says “Oh You may not be aware of it but some of my biggest supporters are terrorists groups like the FARC‘s. Pay no attention to what I just said. As my Pastor Rev. Wright said about me .I’m just a typical politician who will say what ever it takes to win the hearts of the people including leaders of Nations I do not really support, like Colombia.In Cuba when Obama speaks to Raul Castro, I can hear Obama saying “It is such a tragedy that 10,000 people were killed in Cuba by the tsunami that hit your Nation last year.“Raul Castro interrupts Obama and says, “I think you may be talking about Burma, not Cuba, we have not had any hurricanes recently but thanks anyway.” Obama says “Oh it is obvious I don’t know exactly what’s going on in your country Now, having said that, I promise you I’ll learn about it by the time I leave here on the ride back to the airport In the mean just between you and me I was sitting in the pews of the Trinity church when Rev. Wright preached “God D####America so I hope you know that deep in my heart I feel the same way about America you do.”

Didn’t Obama earn a degree in political science, with a specialty in international relations, at Columbia? I ask because his working knowledge of international affairs and, in particular, America’s role in such seems nothing short of abysmal.
Was it at Columbia that he learned all this walk as softly as possible carrying no stick foreign policy claptrap? Unfortunately for the candidate, if one is determined to make such a policy appear reasonable, desirable even, one is compelled to ignore America’s foreign policy history and the lessons it teaches.
It must be difficult for a man as intelligent and learned as Barack Obama to appear so dense, unread and clueless on the campaign trail simply to garner support from the America last types he needs for the nomination. That’s the charitable reading. The less charitable is that he’s just as patently dumb about such things as they to whom he panders.

OBAMA SAID HE ACCEPTED AN APOLOGY FROM CLINTON FOR REFERENCING BOBBY KENNEDY
MCAULIFF SAID, ” WHAT APOLOGY? HILLARY NEVER APOLOGIZED TO OBAMA. OBAMA’S LAST NAME IS NEITHER KENNEDY NOR “ASSASSINATION?”
HA HA HA
NOBODY MENTIONED THE FOOLS NAME, NOBODY APOLOGIZED HE HE HE
OBAMA THE FAKE!

Clinton supporters do not think Obama is qualified. A large segment of moderate and conservative Democratic voters will vote for McCain or another candidate. June is almost here and Obama should already have convinced the Democratic voters that he is the nominee. Even with most of the press helping him, he failed. He keeps on losing primaries. Puerto Rico is going to be won by Clinton. Hispanic voters will reject him for all the world to see. If Florida and Michigan are not counted as people voted, Obama will be seen as an usurper. Clinton has a broad coalition of working class, women, elderly, hispanic,and Catholics. If the DNC does not nominate Clinton, the Democrats will lose the general election.

Obama always seems confused about where he is, how many States there are, what his Pastor said, when he said it and whether Obama heard it or not, what the definition of precondition is or if he really meant what he said about preconditions, whether he is for or against President Bush’s foreign policy, etc. etc. etc

Amazing, could someone please please mention one presidential candidate who has not made a host of gaffes. The pettiness of the comments demonstrates to me that few really care about the issue but are rather in a childish game of “na-na-na, gotcha.” Anyone can write a column on the stupid things that both Clinton and McCain have said.
I did not start off an Obama fan, and I probably am not one now. However, the man is smart. He has built a campaign which has overthrown the presumptive democratic nominee. He inspires people.
I find that there is more positive about Obama than there is about Clinton, so the choice is clear to me. I want to move forward.
I seem to remember a campaign some cycles back, about whether we are better off now than we were before. Who can claim that we are better off now than we were before the last 8 years?
Unfortunately, both Clinton and McCain have failed to inspire and to lead. Obama may yet rise to the occassion, but that hope is preferable to both Clinton and McCain who have histories showing that they cannot.

jt lastow,
It is more than just a bunch of gaffes, There is no there there with Obama see below:
Experience:
Obama’s accomplishments in the state Senate for 6 years was zero. Obama spent his time getting into the good graces of people like Rezko and Ayres in order to financially benefit his future in politics. When Obama asked Emil Jones to make him a federal Senator than Obama started to show some accomplishments. However, those accomplishments included Emil Jones, President of the Illinois state Senate, appointing Obama the head of every piece of high-profile legislation in sight to pad his resume. Jones pushed aside all the senior state senators who had been working on bills for years and gave the credit to Obama by naming Obama as sponsor. Bottom line after six years of doing nothing in the Obama’s 7th and final year as a state Senator, his record went from zero accomplishments to being falsely credited for the sponsorship of 26 passed bills. None of which Obama worked on or fought for!
This is what Obama is doing in the US Senate as well, look at his record, it is zero. Except of course, when it comes to getting earmarks for his wife’s employer passed for the University of Chicago Hospitals, where Michelle Obama was vice president of community affairs. Michelle had already benefited … Senate to $316,962 in 2005 just after he took office.
Obama’s associations:
Here’s a quick run-down of some of Barack Obama’s questionable and disturbing associations:
* Rabidly anti-Israel Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi. The Obamas were regular dinner guests at Khalidi’s Hyde Park home for years.
* Terrorist sympathizer Ali Abunimah, who runs the viciously anti-Israel web site Electronic Intifada.
* Unrepentant Weather Underground terrorists William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn.
* Reverend Jeremiah Wright. What more needs to be said?
* Anti-Israel foreign policy adviser Samantha Power — fired after calling Hillary Clinton a “monster.”
* Anti-Israel foreign policy adviser Robert Malley — fired when it was revealed he has been holding talks with Hamas.
* Hatem El-Hady, former official of the Hamas-linked charity Kindhearts, closed by the Justice Department. El-Hady’s web page–with Michelle Obama listed as an opt-in “friend”–suddenly vanished from the Obama campaign site with no explanation, after being exposed by LGF and others.
* Tony Rezko — a Chicago fixer currently in a whole lot of legal trouble.
*Raila Odinga, who recently ran for president in Kenya, promising to impose Sharia law if elected.

for a man who is making his reputation on being such a smooth, articulate speaker (I’m no George Bush!) he certainly should NOT be given the benefit of the doubt that he is being misunderstood.
No, his comments are clearly contradictatory and should reflect on his inability to make a clear, concise judgment on the facts.

I also have to say that if Obama thinks you can ferment a revolution, he will probably soon start talking about loosing the war. SURELY for a politician words have meaning? This is not a slip or a gaffe or a metaphor. He really thinks the word is ferment. Suddenly, he doesn’t look quite so elite.

More on Obamas hypocrisy regarding lobbyists

Barack Obama wants people to think hes the anti-lobbyist candidate, and runs around the country dissing both Hillary Clinton and John McCain for supposedly being beholden to lobbyists. However, as with most things he says, the rhe…

just read today’ gallup poll,
are the dem bigwigs foolish or what.
I guess their only goal was to beat sen. clinton.
and not win the white house.
i will not align myself with such a group any more.
sen. clinton is the only candidate to put this country back on the right track.

Responding to hostile countries is complicated. We already tried invading and bombing them, and it didn’t work that great. We certainly can’t afford to do it again, or our inflation will go through the roof, and everyone can say goodbye to health care and social security.
(Do you know why gas prices are so high? It’s because the $ is so weak… not because of biofuels, or the Chinese, or oil companies. Nobody wants to tell us that though because they are afraid we will freak out.)
The point is that responding to foreign threats requires a range of responses – diplomacy is a strategy just like any other. The psychotic “Invade Them All” attitude is not going to fly anymore.

‘But “if we are going to isolate the Venezuelans, it may be that we have to engage in a full-on diplomatic strategy with them,” the adviser says.’
Paging Mr. Orwell…

IS OBAMA TOO SENILE TO BE PRESIDENT (II)

A couple of weeks ago, Barack Obama told an audience that he had campaigned in 57 states. Isolated gaffe? Nope. On Friday he blamed George W. Bush for the rise to power of Hugo Chavez in Venezuela:
Since the Bush Administration launched a misguided wa…

In response to some of the posts above, it is precisely because I am an American first and then a democrat that I will vote for Sen. McCain if Sen. Clinton is not the democratic nominee. I am more concerned about the future of our nation than the future of the democratic party and with Sen. Obama as head of our government I think we will be in deep, deep trouble. I think he needs to get more legislative experience at the national level and become more involved in international politics and policies, then maybe I will be ready to support him, but not now, not this time.

Thank you Jay for being a journalist and not following the faux/reportage of the CNN/NBC ObamaMessiah cult.
This man is Kerrylight, and other than having written two narcissitic auto-bios,being a great stump speaker and some basketball skills, he is not Presidential material.

Can someone please tell me again, Barack is running for POTUS because…….?

“What I really meant was……”, Oh no, are we in for another speech??

He doesn’t need to attack Hillary because his media, camp will help him to do it.
He comes out as a hero.
Posted by: catleya | May 26, 2008 12:36:31 AM
That is exactly right, catleya! The press and pundits keeps talking about Obama “taking the high road” throughout this campaign. BS! His surrogates and 24/7 media fan club do all the dirty work. He never gets the blame, even though it belongs right on him and his campaign. I have to say that Obama Axelrod sure knows how to run an “old politics” campaign. Sorry to upset all you folks thinking that Obama is some kind of “new politician”.

He is incredibly weak on Latin American foreign policy!
Obama’s use of the word “ferment” and “fermenting” is very stange (and wrong) as well. The word he needs to have used is “foment” or “fomenting”.
You don’t “ferment” terrorism or anti-American sentiment. The correct word is “foment”. It means to promote the growth of or incite.
And, let’s not forget that in March, when the Colombians captured two FARC terrorist laptop computers at a terrorist camp, they found evidence that FARC was talking to “gringos” about Obama. The FARC Terrorists were hoping and expecting that Barack Obama would win the US elections in November because he was most aligned with the Colombian Marxist group.
This is the exact quote translated into English:
“The gringos will ask for an appointment with the minister to solicit him to communicate to us his interest in discussing these topics. They say that the new president of their country will be Obama and that they are interested in your compatriots. Obama will not support “Plan Colombia” nor will he sign the TLC (Colombian Free Trade agreement). Here we responded that we are interested in relations with all governments in equality of conditions and that in the case of the US it is required a public pronouncement expressing their interest in talking with the FARC given their eternal war against us.”

I am convinced that the fanatical adoration of Obama will fade quickly after a few unpopular decisions as president.
He won’t be able to blame his campaign or racist or Hillary for his mistakes.
As we saw with Bush, the politians trying to prop him up still couldn’t
make up for Bush’s lack of experience or hide the fact that he was unqualified to be president.
The DNC backed by billionaires,chose Obama, banking on his color and charm to win people over. Hillary wouldn’t bow down to them.
And now we are stuck with Obama or have to cross parties to get an experienced, qualified president.
Hillary or McCain 08

Please take a look at the articles below. This is incredibly important. If you read nothing else this week, read these.
Investigative journalist Evelyn Pringle set out to research Barack Obama’s legislative history, and review the accomplishments which led to his rise. What she unexpectedly discovered became the series of articles linked below. They are a must-read for anyone involved in the political process of the United States, and anyone who cares about the future of our country.
Evelyn Pringle is not associated with any political campaign. Before deciding to research Obama’s history, she did lean toward Hillary Clinton for her vote, but intended to support Obama if he won the nomination.
Evelyn Pringle Series
Barack Obama – The Wizard of Oz
Search google, oped news
It took a while but I’m hoping it’s worth the work. If only a few read the articles and can get through the complexity, it may make a difference. If this story doesn’t get out there now, it certainly will if he wins the nomination..the Republicans will see to it.

“The man has been a one-man gaffe machine.”
Yes, he has, Jake. I’m beginning to think Obama is dumber than Bush….

Obama is the divine one and CANNOT
commit a “gaffe”. It is we mere mortals
who cannot always grasp the perfection
of his reasoning that bear the imper-
fection of thought…..or so we are
told. To believe that Obama is a soft-
spoken carny-barker is heresy.

Pssst, will someone please clue Obama in on the meanings of the words “ferment” and “foment”. Would hate to think he’s a total moron from all these gaffes, now wouldn’t we.

Is FARC located in Massatoosits?
Gravitas baby, GRAVITAS.

How about last week, when he clarified his comment that Iran was not a “serious threat” to us by saying that it was a “grave threat” to us? Or am I being to nitpicky?

If you want to irritate an Obama supporter, ask them what Obama’s specific ideas are. If and when you twist their arm and get an answer, then debunk the idea as socialist or something that has been tried or failed before. You will then be accused of being a racist.

ABC: We know you’d like nothing else than to see Obama fail, but it’s not going to happen. I’d like nothing more than to see your network’s check canceled. I used to watch ABC but couldn’t stomach turning the channel your way after that last shameful debate! Out with the old, in with the new. Obama 08!

It is extremely unlikely Obama could point to Colombia on a map, much less discuss a coherent policy on FARC.
The man has absolutely no friggin’ clue about geopolitics and foreign policy. None whatsoever.
Given this level of monumental ignorance, why isn’t Obama an undisputed candidate for the Democratic Party nomination?
He’s done everything possible to ensure the American people that he’s a twit. What more could Democrats want?

To all of you who want this Man, who has no idea whats, what in the world , for president, good luck! Unless there is a teleprompter, telling him what to say , he has no idea about foreign affairs. He actually makes a fool of himself. He has fooled everyone, just because he is a Harvard graduate, does not make him intelligent. There are those who are professional students. They go to school forever without really mastering anything. Without other people words and thoughts, what has Obama really mastered! He hasn’t been that great of a politician or lawyer.

As Obama, McCain & Hillay speak and comment on each others, one remains with the impression – ans hope – that those who really run the USA must hide somewhere, far from this moromic lot and maddening circus.
Pierre JC

I have noticed a distinct pattern from Obama and his supporters towards revisionist history. Whether it’s Pastor Wright, with his radical interpretations of American history, or Pastor Moss’ denigration of Thomas Jefferson, or Obama’s historical distortions, which support his P.R. image building efforts. Their tactic is to discredit, or distort history, in order to pave the way for their new extreme policies. A President of the United States should know, and communicate real historical facts, not fabrications for personal political gain.

Following my exploration, thousands of persons on our planet get the credit loans from different banks. So, there is a good chance to receive a financial loan in every country.

how many of those out there defending Obama’s gaffes still chortle at Dan Quayle’s verbal clumsiness?
It would seem obvious that gravy for a goose is not, at least in this instance, gravy for a gander…

The only people Obama could be talking about as ‘insurgents’ are FARC because there is nothing comparable anywhere else in the hemisphere.
