Cindy McCain Presses Obama Patriotism Case

ABC News’ Ed O’Keefe Reports: Laura Bush may be ready to give Michelle Obama the benefit of the doubt when it comes to her patriotism but Cindy McCain may not.

"I don’t know why she said what she said," Mrs. McCain explains in an interview with ABC News’ Kate Snow airing on "Good Morning America" Thursday. "Everyone has their own experience. I don’t know why she said what she said, all I know is that I have always been proud of my country."

WATCH "GOOD MORNING AMERICA" THURSDAY ON ABC TO SEE KATE SNOW’S INTERVIEW WITH CINDY MCCAIN.

Snow asked McCain if she was "insulted when Michelle Obama said she was proud of her country for the first time", referencing remarks Obama made at a Wisconsin rally during her husband’s fight for the Democratic presidential nomination against Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y. 

"For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of country not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change," Mrs. Obama told the Madison crowd, sparking outrage from conservative critics and fodder for an online ad produced by the Republican party in Tennessee.

In a rare move, Mrs. McCain also challenged Mrs. Obama’s remark, saying as she introduced her husband at a rally shortly after Obama’s remarks, "I’m proud of my country, I don’t know if you heard those words earlier. I’m very proud of my country."

In subsequent interviews, Obama attempted to clarify her remarks — something she did again in her appearance as a co-host of ABC’s daytime talk show "The View".

Obama insisted she is "proud of my country, without a doubt," going on to explain "I’m a girl who grew up in a working-class neighborhood in Chicago and let me tell you, of course I’m proud. What I was talking about is pride in the political process."

Patriotism might not be the only skirmish between the potential first spouses this election year. In the interview airing on "Good Morning America" Thursday, McCain didn’t shy away from political questions.

Asked by Snow if she would feel safe with Obama as president, McCain replied, "I would feel safe with my husband as president . . .I think Barack Obama is a fine man and Michelle Obama is a fine woman (but) this is about who would be better and I think my husband would be better."

Mrs. McCain is currently touring Vietnam in support of Operation Smile, a non-profit organization that provides facial reconstruction surgery.

ABC News’ Bret Hovell, Sunlen Miller, Jake Tapper, and Jennifer Parker contributed to this report.

Was she wearing a Flag Pin, though?
That’s what I want to know.

Cindy I think you need to spend more time keeping Johnny on the porch, if you know what I mean. It’s amazing that she is continuing to bankroll his failed campaign when he’s out doing what powerful old men do with expensive, younger women at their beck and call. I simply don’t know which one between the two, that I should pity more. What a sad and disgraceful lot those two. Naturally they’ll end up as President and first lady, and more than likely follow in the Clintons footsteps
continuing to preserve such a wretched example that they began some 15 years ago.

People always comment about Cindy McCain and her prior addiction to prescription pain killers following a back injury. No one EVER talks about how Barkey himself used coke and weed for years. What do you call someone who uses coke and weed? A CRACKPOT!!

Posted by: FoxyBrown | June 18, 2008, 5:29 pm 5:29 pm

And Cindy, my advice to you is to ease up a little on that prenup (prenuptial agreement). Give the man some benefit of the doubt; after all, he is now running for president, and you would not expect the people of America to trust your husband with their economy, when you yourself wouldn’t trust him with yours.

Posted by: Charitybegins@home | June 18, 2008, 5:30 pm 5:30 pm

The Last 8 years haven’t given many of us reason to be proud.
I guess $100 million would make anyone proud.

Posted by: Thinking | June 18, 2008, 5:34 pm 5:34 pm

FoxyBrown, you do realize that people are less upset that Cindy McCain used drugs, and more upset that she stole them from a nonprofit that she had founded to help needy children, right?
However Obama got his drugs (which he has openly admitted to in his books, by the way) I’m pretty sure he didn’t steal them from little kids, especially not after founding the organization that was used to purchase those drugs in the first place.
If there *is* a nonprofit that supplies needy kids with marijuana… man now I’ve seen everything!

It’s not about who wears what, it is about hypocrisy.
This phony first said he cares less of wearing it, to pander the far left moveon.com for endorsement, and then, seeing he succeeded his Affirmative Action nomination, he put it on, to pander the public.
It’s hypocrisy at display that is most distasteful, purely for the purpose of deceiving voters.

This is unprovoked cattiness. Cindy McCain has never been an Obama target. This will surely backfire.

Say what you will. Cindy McCain is no where near the woman that Laura Bush, Hillary Clinton, or Michelle Obama is. She needs to spend some money on class lessons..that attidude really makes her look ugly. Stealing cookie recipes from an American Institution (isn’t that a frderal offence?)

Posted by: plasterface | June 18, 2008, 5:57 pm 5:57 pm

Many men have stepped down this year for adultery who was associated in politics??
So you want to vote one in office as a President who committed adultery and then married it.
I am confused, totally.

Posted by: Becky | June 18, 2008, 5:58 pm 5:58 pm

The O-Clones are now trying to justify Barkey’s drug addiction. Who cares where he got them from? Seems like you’re trying to say since he BOUGHT the drugs instead of STEALING them, that makes it alright. Who wants a crack head for President? I guess you Bots don’t mind.
On another note, how many of you knew Barkey met with a rep from Hezbollah while he was in MI?
http://www.debbieschlussel.com/archives/2008/06/in_michigan_oba.html
I’m sure the Clones have a justification for the crackhead meeting with terrorists too.
I have a question for the O-Clones. Do you need to see Barkey having sex with a baby before you agree his behavior is out of bounds? Or will you blame the baby?

Posted by: FoxyBrown | June 18, 2008, 6:00 pm 6:00 pm

As anyone who heard Mrs. Obama’s comments or has read them since knows, Michelle Obama has always been proud of her country. She was speaking of being really proud of our political process this year because so many people have become involved. Cindy McCain knows that as sure as the sun comes up and she’s just trying to fool people and make political points. Maybe she should just go steal some more cookies.

Cindy is far and away classier than Michelle “O’Angry Obama”. Not only that, but she understands that capitalism built this country and she’s benefitting from it as we all have.
If you need further documentaion, read Michelle’s thesis. Then you will see where she comes from.

Michelle Obama made the dumb statement. The Obamas made the mistake of going to an anti-American church where Reverand Wright preaches that “our chickens came home to roost” when 9/11 took place. The Obamas made the mistake of letting this anti-American minister marry them, baptize their kids and then Obama called him his spiritual leader. I’m sorry, but this is fair game. If you want to lead this country, you better love this county. Sure, American isn’t perfect and has made some mistakes (as has any country). But you don’t state that for the first time in your life you are proud of this country? She wasn’t proud of this country when he landed in Normandy? She wasn’t proud of this country when we put a man on the moon? She wasn’t proud of this country when we have sent billions of dollars of aid to third world countries (more than any other country).
I’m sorry, but Michelle Obama’s comment was offensive and she should be attacked about it.

Cindy has more class in her little finger than Michelle Obama has in her whole body. Michelle is the perfect partner to her anti-Christ racist husband Barack Hussein Obama who just might not even be an American citizen (show us your birth certificate Barry).

Don’t make me laugh-Michelle has class??? Why, pray tell does she need “repackaging” and a “personality makeover” and has to be taught to smile more?? Keep drinking the kool aid while you read these facts:
MICHELLE OBAMA
Graduated on a government funded education to the schools of Princeton and Harvard.
Was a frequent protester against the school polices. Quoted as saying she “felt like a visitor”.
Employed as a staff worker in the corrupt administration of Chicago’s Mayor Richard Dailey.
Assigned to mentor “Barry” Obama at her law firm. Result was a sexual affair hidden from the firm as they frown on employee fraternization. First date was a Spike Lee movie.
Married by her friend and mentor, the controversial radical Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. at Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, Illinois in 1992. Continued to be a follower and friend.
Paid member of the board of TreeHouse Foods, a major Wal-Mart supplier until husband blasted Wal-Mart when speaking to a union group last year.
Told to tone down her sarcastic and demeaning rhetoric in her Obama stump speech. Has since been virtually AWOL in her own husband’s campaign.
Recently reported an income of just under $300,000 excluding her husband’s Senate salary. Total IRS reported income for that year 2006, was nearly $1,000,000. Publicly complains of high cost of daughter’s dance lessons.
Is bio’d as her husband’s closest political advisor, which she publicly denies.
CINDY MCCAIN
She graduated from Southern Cal and was a special-needs teacher.
After her Dad died she became involved with his beer distributing firm and is now the chairwoman. Sales have doubled since she has taken over from her father.
She and Sen. John McCain have a marriage prenuptial agreement; her assets remain separate.
The McCain’s have a 19 year old serving in Iraq , another son in the Naval Academy, a daughter who recently graduated from Columbia Univ., an adopted daughter in high school, and a son who is the finance guy at the beer firm.
In 1991, Mrs. McCain came across a girl in an orphanage in Bangladesh. Mother Teresa implored Mrs. McCain to take the baby who had a severe cleft palate. She did so without first telling her husband. The couple adopted the girl who has had a dozen operations to repair her cleft palate and other medical problems.
They have a Family Foundation for children’s causes. She will join an overseas mission of “Operation Smile”, a charity for corrective surgery on children’s faces.
She’s active with “Halo Trust” – to clear land mines, provide water and food in war ravaged and developing countries. She serves on the board.
Michelle hates white people-thats classy alright.

Posted by: Al Sharpton | June 18, 2008, 6:13 pm 6:13 pm

Well yeah. If I was born into a wealthy family with everything handed to me on a silver platter, I wouldn’t have much to complain about either. Cindy McCain has lived a priviledged life even when she messed up…how many people do you know could get away with stealing drugs from a charity?
It’s not that Cindy is proud of America and that Michelle “isn’t” that’s the issue. The issue is that they grew up in two VERY different Americas. If you can’t see that, you’re either too blind or too sheltered from wealth to notice.

I will never support the Obamas in WH and will work my a– off to elect Sen. McCain in the fall!

This, in a country where people ARE ALIVE TODAY who can easily remember segregated bathrooms, white-only restaurants, and the Jena 6. Oh yeah, that just happened.

Posted by: Ellen | June 18, 2008, 6:18 pm 6:18 pm

I see it like this: Cindy McCain comes from an industrious family that over the years prospered and created jobs for the community, gave to charity, etc. Michelle Obama was handed a free education (courtesy of our tax dollars) but did manage to succeed in her career due to her own hard work and dedication…, but, she also got the mega-job she has today only because of her husband’s status as a US Senator. I’d have to go with Cindy in this contest because she is more true to her roots.

nasty divorce….
She has her issues, with drugs
I wouldnt hold that against anyone
addition is tough..
But Adultry is something else indeed.
she is like one of those stepford wives
she just doesnt seem real.

It is amazing to see how clueless the majority of America is. You ( Obama Supporters) obviously have never managed a business, obtained loans, and or managed payrolls. He has no plan, no clue and if we continue down the political path we have been on for the past 2 decades America will collapse upon its fat bloated lazy self. If not collapse and chaos we will be purchased in whole by the Middle east and or the Chinese.
Get a clue folks. Read and Learn. Vote with your financial brain and wallet not for foolish feel good crap served by the majority of politiicians today

Oh, Cindy, get over yourself and get a grip while you’re at it. There’s been plenty of times people on both sides of the aisle haven’t been proud of their country. You can be a blind follower saying everything is great all the time and you’re always proud, or you can have a brain and speak out at times when you’re disgusted with the direction of things and none too proud of what you’re seeing. You sound (and look by the way) like a Nazi from 1940′s Germany.

Posted by: Mike | June 18, 2008, 6:19 pm 6:19 pm

Cindy and the GOP should really reconsider their attacks on Michele Obama (who never was a mistress like Cindy was and who didn’t marry her husband one month after his divorce from his crippled and disfigured wife). Think twice girlfriend. Do you really want to go down that road?

How do you go to a racist church for 20 years and don’t get some of that bile on you? How can you be friends with the fiendish crowd that jumps and screams of joy when hate is preached? Michelle Obama has as much as class of Toe Fungus. What a contrast with Cindy!

I believe Michelle Obama is a racist. But so are a large number of people in the U.S. Does that mean she cannot or should not be a competent First Lady. Probably not. I know many people who are bigots, racists, wife beaters, liars, elitists, narcissists, etc. BUT, they still do their JOB well. People need to separate a person’s character flaws from their ability to do a certain job. You can find faults in anybody if you look long enough. BTW, I am still voting for McCain, the lesser of two evils.

alabama lib – you’re grasping at straws. The accident was over 10 years before he divorced his first wife. Remember obama added to drug use (a recovering drugee?), received a sweetheart land deal, good friends with the admitted terrorist Wild Bill Ayers, directed federal funds to the place of his wife’s employment (and shortly thereafter she received a promotion and salary of over $200,000), etc. etc. Obama and Michelle are both Marxists

Michelle is a liability for Obama. She is not quite a Rev Wright, but her true views based on her college thesis and remarks in public speeches e.g. the never been proud of US until now commnet, are far from mainstream.
The Obama campaign has redone Michelle. Starting with her hosting The View this week we are going see a much tone downed Michelle, closer to mainstream left.

If someone has no job, no degree, no future, he/she says that she/he’s not proud of America. I understand that she/he’s upset, angry,etc…
But for well educated, rich, famous woman said that firsr time in her adult life she’s proud of America. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. Mrs. Obama, you’re so cruel!

Posted by: Philip Saenz | June 18, 2008, 6:22 pm 6:22 pm

Michele has no desire to be part of an Obama administration (unlike Hillary in Bill’s White House), yet she has been subject to many rough and some unfair comments. Cindy has not been subject to the same standard, even though she is with her money. She allow John to use her private plane, so he can claim he doesn’t accept corporate travel from companies. Now she going to start taking shots. Be prepared to undergo the same.
Of course she is proud. Who wouldn’t be being heiress to $100 million beer distributor? Who wouldn’t be, after stealing drugs from her own charity, but does not do any jail time for the possession, use, or theft? What kind of special deal was worked out there? Come clean about how you pulled that off. Come clean by releasing your tax returns so we know how involved you are in your husbands campaign. Let hear about your courtship with John. How and why did you get married to John only a month after his divorce?
Reporters, time for some equal time. Ask the tough questions to Cindy if she is going to involve herself.

Posted by: Pat | June 18, 2008, 6:22 pm 6:22 pm

And Cindy, my advice to you is to ease up a little on that prenup (prenuptial agreement). Give the man some benefit of the doubt; after all, he is now running for president, and you would not expect the people of America to trust your husband with their economy, when you yourself wouldn’t trust him with yours.

Posted by: Charitybegins@home | June 18, 2008, 6:22 pm 6:22 pm

Cindy,
Were you proud of your country when you bedded a married man, John McCain, while his wife was still recovering from a car accident? (How does that work? Did the two of you pause occasionally during your Clintonesque romps to recite the pledge of allegiance?)
Were you proud of your country when you stole drugs from your own charity to feed your criminal drug habit? The only reason you aren’t still hooked on drugs is because one of your colleagues, in whose name you were forging prescriptions, turned you in to the Drug Enforcement Agency to avoid being implicated in your criminal conspiracy. The only reason you aren’t in prison is because John McCain pulled strings to avoid being stained a second time by the filth of your moral degeneracy. You went into treatment when you should have gone behind bars.
I’m old enough to remember when Republicans IMPEACHED adulterers instead of putting them on the national ticket. (Then again, everyone over the age of eight is old enough to remember that.)
I don’t even recognize the Republican party anymore. I don’t know who I’ll be voting for in the next election, but it sure as heck won’t be any latter-day Bill Clintons and Monica Lewinskys, even if their names are John and Cindy McCain.

People always comment about Cindy McCain and her prior addiction to prescription pain killers following a back injury. No one EVER talks about how Barkey himself used coke and weed for years. What do you call someone who uses coke and weed? A CRACKPOT!!
He wrote about that, He wasnt trying
to hide that…It was funny all the
candidates at one time, on stage
were all asked if they tried pot.
they all said they did, accept Huckabee.
It was something Barack did in college
like a million kids , tried it.
whats more important is that he turned
that part of his life around, He isnt
perfect. and LOOK what he has accomplished!!! Thats true role model
to change your lifes path when you go

There are many more good things to say about Cindy McCain than negative. For instance, her various charitable works that have benefitted a lot of people as well as her own adoption of a child who has required numerous costly surgeries. Why isn’t Cindy McCain being held up as the model of the “modern” woman. She is the chairwoman of a large company, which while she certainly received that through nepotism she has by all accounts been very involved in the current operations strategy. She is a mother who is adored by her children and she is involved with many charitable functions all while being involved in her husband’s campaign. Sounds pretty impressive to me. But I guess anything the Obamas do is better because they USED TO not have a lot of money. Oh wait and they dress well.

I love it when liberals know they have lost an argument — they’ll go for the smear — and worst yet they’ll believe their own spin. Bunch of psychotics if you ask me.
One thing they cannot argue is Obama is a Marxist.
For the benefit of everyone, Marxism is basically a way to view the world. In like kind, Communism is a political movement, a form of government, and a condition of society coming out of the views of Marxism. A Marxist refers to the politics and philosophy deriving from the work of Karl Marx.
Marxist socialism is, in theory, what was and is being practiced by all of the countries that we call “Communist.” The objective of Marxist socialism is to use the State to prepare society for communism by communalizing or collecting all of the productive forces of the society, (i.e. by making all of the means of production public property). Establishing high taxes, proposing large government entities are two of many ways to achieve this status — that is taking the resources out of the hands of the individual owners and making those resources public property.
The “state of communism” is described by Marx as the condition in which “the State” no longer exists and where people live and work together in harmony in a society based on equality where the fruits of labor are shared with all members of society and no one is exploited.
In theory this sounds like fun — but in reality it isn’t. This political system depresses everything there is about the human spirit and controls all human ingenuity and individualism. The movement is very much anti-God as the political system itself becomes the man-made religion, controlled by a few. Every attempt to create true communism has failed (i.e. Soviet Union as a recent example) but now it is being perpetrated on the west in one more attempt to live. My opinion is this system allows just a few to control an entire society very easily.
So when Obama makes what are viewed as Marxist statements by some such as whenever he speaks of bringing together our “collective resources” or when he appears to be quoting out of the communist manifesto, he is showing his true intentions of trying to turn the United States into a Marxist society and a Communist form of government. This effort has been ongoing for years and started way before Obama was even on the political scene. It is a movement that has masqueraded itself as something else (i.e. liberalism) and many people are falling for it. The only way to beat this attempt is to keep preserving capitalism.
Obama is a junior senator! He had not even finished his first year as an elected official before he started campaigning for the presidency. Has anyone heard of this happening before? My guess is he was pre-selected and is being pre-fabricated for the American people. Take away the speech monitor and speechwriters and he is an empty suit.
The far left is swallowing him up — being enamored by what his handlers are making him appear to be — a minority socialist — the guy is perfect for their taste buds and they are salivating all over him. Like I said liberals quickly believe their own hype and spin.
Liberals seem to be without a soul but looking for a “worldly” messiah. They think they have it in Obama. If elected, which I don’t think he will be, the libs in this country (as well as everyone else) are going to be very disappointed.

You won’t find any decency from the right wing. They have nothing left to do but to attack. I mean, after 8 years of Republican rule, our country is far worse off than in the 90′s. So what record is there really to run on? The worst terrorist attack occurred under Bush, recession occurred under Bush, 4000 troops died under Bush. Debt increased by trillions under (conservative!) Bush. Amazing.

And Cindy, my advice to you is to ease up a little on that prenup (prenuptial agreement). Give the man some benefit of the doubt; after all, he is now running for president, and you would not expect the people of America to trust your husband with their economy, when you yourself wouldn’t trust him with yours.

Hensley met John McCain in April 1979 at a military reception in Hawaii.[15] He was the U.S. Navy liaison officer to the United States Senate, almost eighteen years her senior.[16] He was married to his wife Carol, and had previously had extramarital affairs in the mid-1970s.[17] Carol and John McCain had separated briefly once, but had since come back together.[15] McCain and Hensley quickly began a relationship.[16] Carol and John McCain finally separated in late 1979,[15][18] Carol accepted a divorce in February of 1980,[15] effective in April 1980, and then John and Cindy were married on May 17, 1980 in Phoenix. They made a prenuptial agreement that kept most of her family’s assets under her name;[19] they have since kept their finances apart and file separate income tax returns.[19]

I have had 3 back surgeries after a bad car wreck in 93. While I don’t condone stealing, I understand the temptation. I wouldn’t wish back pain on my worst enemy. I also think that neither should be running for First Lady. Wives should be out of it. I also think Laura Bush has been a perfect example of what a First Lady should be, gracious and largely out of the limelight. She pushes her education and childrens issues, but has the common sense to realize that George is the one who was elected (twice). I couldn’t think of a better First LAdy in my voting life.

Posted by: John McCracker | June 18, 2008, 6:41 pm 6:41 pm

I wonder if Kate asked her about her drug addiction and drug theft. Here are a few of the details:
was a drug addict and stole drugs:
“In 1989, Cindy McCain became addicted to opioid painkillers. The addiction progressed to where she resorted to stealing drugs. During 1992, Tom Gosinski, a director for the organization from where Cindy was stealing drugs, discovered her theft. Subsequently in 1992, her parents staged an intervention to force her to get help.” (from the McCain family history book — right after the part when McCain dumps his first wife because whe was disfigured in a car accident).

Liberals are the easiest people to dupe.
When Barrack says “change”, one should wonder whatever happened to those great changes that were promised after the’06 congressional elections: Unemployment has gotten much worse and oil prices haven’t stopped climbing after settling at around $60 a barrel before those elections and now they want government to take over the oil industry. Liberals are sick. So typically as liberals do, go ahead and blame Bush for the rapid inflation as a result of the democratic laws enacted since ’06.

“btw, Chris is right. Obama will be the next president whether you racists like it or not.”
Yeah, man — that’ll show you guys! Na-na-ni-naaa-na! You really sound like a vindictive, unreasonable child, Dem in Chicago. You can’t stand criticism, and you’re obviously a bit insecure. I would have to imagine that you are one of those people playing this deliberately-crafted game of “If you oppose Obama, you’re a racist.” It’s a way of attempting to shut down any intelligent debate, which people like this have intense trouble with. In reality, Obama has based his entire campaign on racism. The only reason he received any attention to begin with is because his dad (who abandoned Obama when he was a child) was a black man. This is undeniable. Geraldine Ferraro was right. If Obama’s dad hadn’t been black, he’d have been laughed off the stage and Hillary would be the nominee. But the left’s appetite to nominate a black because of his race just happened to be stronger this year than nominating a woman because of her gender (which was really the only thing powering Hillary’s candidacy, by the way). Whites back Hillary or McCain with 60%, “IT’S RACISM!” But blacks (and their white-guilt back-up) can vote for Obama in the 90% range, and oh, of course it’s NOT racism.
Oh, and Obama is not black. His mom was as white as Hillary, he’s bi-racial, yet he passes himself off as fully black. To me, a person who can’t even be honest about their own identity can’t be trusted to be honest about anything beyond that point.
I’m no rabid McCain fan, myself. But being honest about some pretty obvious stuff in this campaign is a good starting point.
Well, back to work. See ya…

I don’t think Cindy McCain wants to get into this battle. Cindy is an empty-headed rodeo beauty queen who grew up wealthy and priviledged. She met John McCain while he was still married, and stole him away from his first wife, who was in a horrible car accident. Cindy later became a drug addict, and has a criminal record because she was stealing drugs from her own charity.
If Cindy McCain REALLY wants to make this election about future First Lady’s, she will lose, because she’s far less honorable than Michelle Obama. Michelle Obama grew up in a working class family and earned her way into Princeton and Harvard while Cindy McCain was busy accepting bribes from Charles Keating.
It was very telling that in two recent recipe contests, Cindy McCain was found to have plagiarized the recipes. She’s a complete phony.

Let’s review our choices. Obama – super bright, eloquent, slow to anger, able to inspire, motivate and enlist the support of others, married once and still in love with an equally bright and capable woman. McCain – bright enough but not the top of his class by a long shot, public speaking not his strong suit, quick to anger, has trouble inspiring even his base, second marriage with a less than honourable history when it come to life partner commitments and currently looking very stiff with the wife (and not in the good way). Gee, tough choice

“On Obama Day Whites Will PAY!”

Posted by: Choker | June 18, 2008, 6:59 pm 6:59 pm

Cindy McCain: Another out-of-touch white elitist b—h without a clue. Of course she can’t relate to Michelle Obama. Obama grew up in south Chicago and went on to become a successful attorney by working hard. McCain was born with a silver spoon in her mouth paid for by the DEVIL-her father was distributor for Anheuser-Busch. So while Obama was working hard to get ahead, McCain was getting rich on the backs of drunks. I wonder if there’s a special place in h–l for people who profit off others’ misery and pain?

Posted by: ArtieJoe68 | June 18, 2008, 6:59 pm 6:59 pm

Mrs. Obama said on at least three scripted occasions, “For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country.” The context of these remarks was her husband’s campaign for the Democratic nomination for president. She did not say, “For the first time in my adult life, I am REALLY proud of my country.” The two expressions mean two different things.
According to Mrs. Obama, if we are to take her at her word, she was not proud of her country during her adult life until Sen. Obama ran for the Democratic nomination for president. My first question to her is very simple. “Why were you so ashamed of your country during your adult life?”
The second question is a little longer: “During your adult life, the United States accomplished great things for the American People and for many other people worldwide. We passed the Civil Rights Bill in 1965. We defeated the Soviet Union and ended the Cold War in 1989. We helped tear down the Berlin Wall in 1989. We landed Americans on the moon in 1969. In 2002 and 2003, we liberated 10 million people in Afghanistan from the Taliban and freed 30 million Iraqis from the stalinist dictator and sadist, Saddam Hussein. We fed starving people in Haiti, Somalia, Bosnia and scores of other countries worldwide. We contributed tens of billions of dollars to fight HIV/AIDS in Africa. What part of this doesn’t merit at least some of your admiration and pride in America?”
If we are to have a First Lady who dislikes her country so much that she can’t see at least some good in America for the past thirty years, is this a First Lady that we really need to have?

Give the man some benefit of the doubt; after all, he is now running for president, and you would not expect the people of America to trust your husband with their economy, when you yourself wouldn’t trust him with yours.

Obama’s wife deserves every sort of scrutiny possible, especially by the wife of their competition.
You people throwing insults left and right at Cindy McCain are the classless ones. Stop crying already, about minute details concerning Cindy McCain. Attacking her on her personal life and bringing up such issues of substance like the cookie recipe, making you people look completely pathetic – Get off smoking the joints and grow up.
Obama’s wife made a public comment – she put herself and her beliefs out there. That’s the reason she should be scrutinized: when something she says offends TRUE Americans. Cindy McCain responded to something she said – and you people are attacking her personal background.
Take time for some introspection to see who the true, classless individuals are. You all, I’m sure, would love it if someone started bringing out all your dirty laundry, which I DO NOT DOUBT you all have (especially since liberals are the purveyors of hypocrisy). It’s always you people, who stands up on your respective pedestals, that think you can inject negative info about someone – when that info isn’t relevant for the debate at hand.
Grow up, all you narcissistic, self-involved, liberal cry babies, that are completely incapable of constructive criticism – cause your feelings got hurt. CRY BABIES. Move out of your parent’s houses already.

Obama is unfit to be President because he is a radical anti-American, racist, his policies are completely off the Ranch, and I think he is nuts.
Ayers, Rev Wright, and Michelle are all rabid radical, Anti-American, racists; they are Obama’s inner circle, yet the media would have you believe that Obama some Dali-lama like creature.
He is allegedly a smart guy, but did you hear his comment yesterday? To parphrase: He said, if we had “invested” 250 billion five years ago (Instead of spending it in Iraq), we would have replaced the internal combustion engine by now, and gas would be cheaper because nobody would be using it. The reality is that there is no technology available now, or on the horizon for the next 30 year that could significantly reduce our reliance on internal combustion engines. yet this guy thinks we could of invented WARP Drive if only we had “invested” in it.

McCain himself said “it’s tough” to be “proud of America”, and that Americans needed to be “more humble”. Was he crucified??? Was his patriotism questioned? No, because what he said is right, and it doesn’t make you unpatriotic to point out when our country makes mistakes. That is the only way to make America better.

What have all you “super patriots” done that makes you any better than anyone else? Michelle Obama was 5 years old when the first man landed on the moon. Everyone misspeaks occasionally. Laura Bush is a true lady for making that statement about Michelle Obama. It’s too bad the rest of the country can’t follow her lead.

McCain fortune traced to organized crime
Mob figures later implicated in Arizona savings and loan scandal
By Jerome R. Corsi
John McCain’s personal fortune traces back to organized crime in Arizona, through his father-in-law, according to a report published by a multi-news agency team called Investigative Reporters and Editors Inc.
IRE reporters Amy Silverman and John Doherty, writing in the Phoenix New Times, note that the father of McCain’s wife, James Hensley, was convicted by a federal jury in U.S. District Court of Arizona in March 1948 on seven counts of filing false liquor records. Hensley also was charged with conspiracy to hide from federal authorities the names of persons involved in a liquor industry racket with two companies he managed, United Sales Company in Phoenix and United Distributors in Tucson.
The umbrella company, United Liquor, at that time held a monopoly in Arizona, organized and managed by Kemper Marley, who was accused of mob ties by a reporter who was murdered in 1977.
Silverman and Doherty report that by 1955, Hensley had launched a Budweiser distributorship in Phoenix, “a franchise reportedly bestowed upon him by Marley, who was never indicted in the 1948 liquor-law-violation case – or a subsequent one – despite his controlling role in the liquor distribution businesses.”

I’m so tired of Michelle Obama pretending to be the average black woman. The Obama surrogates have referred to the neighborhood where Michelle grew up as “mean streets”, and Michelle describes it as a “working class neighborhood”. So you get this picture of a marginal ‘hood, right ? The truth is, her neighborhood was once one of the poshest in the Chicago area, and was upper middle class when Michelle lived there. She went on to attend two ivy league schools. She’s hardly average.

Can you smell that? It’s called desperation, and it is oozing from Republicans right now. They know the country has rejected them. Their policies have completely failed. Their President is considered by most historians to be the worst US President ever. Even their economic policies have been a complete failure. Oil was $11.50 a barrel in 1998 under Democrats, but is now $140 per barrel under Republicans failed energy policies. The dollar is tanking and getting weaker every day. Home foreclosures are at all time highs. We have budget deficits as far as the eye can see, putting more and more debt on future generations. There is no end in sight in Iraq.
At every level, Republican policies have FAILED our country.
So what is their answer? MORE OF THE SAME. That’s right America. No, that is not a joke. The answer according to Republicans is another Bush term is just what we need right now.
Republicans have completely lost touch with the problems of average Americans. Democrats are the only ones talking about health care, alternative energy, ending the Iraq War, and creating jobs. Republicans are busy talking about bombing Iran because the problems of Israel are more important to them than the problems of average Americans. They have billions and billions to waste on bombing Iraq or Iran, but don’t you dare ask them for money for American children.
You’re damn right we’re ready for change.

I like Cindy McCain. She’s rich and passes out beer. She’s probably smarter and more knowledgeable about the economy than her husband. If there is one negative, it is when she puts her hair up she looks like Beaker from the Muppets. And the red candy stripe cheerleader dress has got to go.

Not Barrack Obama, certainly.
Maybe booksmart is he, but no common sense.
Apparently he has never written a monthly check out to the electric company …..he probably doesn’t even know how much his bill is.
BRING ON THE NUKE POWER.
Leave Obama in the dust……send him to someplace where they can’t drill for oil, can’t build NUKE plants, and where people only travel in public transportation……….and I’ll show you a man without an income because it will be in a country with no energy, no capitalism (because companies will go where fuel is cheap and business is unregulated).

I don’t know squat about Cindy McCain so I can’t comment on her. What I do know is what I have heard from Michelle Obama. She said “For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of my country not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change,” Mrs. Obama told the Madison crowd. She was later called on the carpet about and then had to explain what she REALLY meant. BS!!! She said what she said and she meant what she said. Anytime someone, especially someone in the political arena has to explain what thay really meant you know they are simply trying to divert you from how they really feel. She is a liar and a low life just like her husband and NOT TO BE TRUSTED. I hope the people of this country are smart enough to see these two for what they REALLY are. Wolves in sheep clothing.

Obama intelligent? I know of plenty of high paid dumb lawyers who couldn’t fix a kitchen sink if a judge ordered them to. I’ll believe Obama is intelligent the day he admits he’s wrong about anything. He lacks any amount of humility. Voting for him is like voting for Jack the Ripper…during the day he’s nice and articulate, but when he’s on the streets when nobody is looking (because the press is asleep as usual), someone is going to get hacked.

After the republicans stole two elections and tried to overthrow the president before that, I can understand why Obama said what she said.
We’ve made fools of ourselves for ten years to the world. Did you read the finance guys saying brace yourselves for a crash?
We can only hope that the voters use a BROOM on the rest of the republicans. They need to sit in the corner for a very long time.

The business I work for has expanded to a second location. I’m proud to live in a country where too many taxes and laws don’t hold me back. Not everyone can say the same, but it could be worse, like Europe or china where they tell u how many kids u can have. I have seven kids.

I am a supporter of Sen Obama. What has been reported about Mrs McCain is good. Sen McCain in 2000 was someone to support, McCain in 2008 is out of touch. Criticizing spouses is not in the spirit of Obama politics and should be resisted. Criticizing the candidate is appropriate.
I find Mrs Obama a very impressive figure and would make an excellent role model. One person here criticized her as classless, that was very white of him.

(Even though I am not a fan of Michelle Obama, I will keep myself from commenting on her at all here). What’s next: Commenting and bashing their children? Good God, people, for all the posters that think they recognize “class” as it applies to the potential First Lady of the Land, show some yourselves. I am not including in that the few actual thinking posters that have contributed.

If ABC is going to quiz Cindy on what she thinks of Michelle. They ought to delve into the fact that Cindy began dating McCain while he was still a married man. They ought to delve into the fact that McCain dumped his first wife shortly after she became disfigured and disabled from a bad car accident and took up with Cindy who is 18 years his junior.

4. Blaming someone else for her own shortcomings.
5. Being called a C**T by John.

7. Stealing drugs to feed her drug addiction.

ABC News’ Ed O’Keefe demonstrates poor journalism with regard to this article. Notice the distinction between the following (Snow asked McCain if she was “insulted when Michelle Obama said she was proud of her country for the first time”, referencing remarks Obama made at a Wisconsin rally during her husband’s fight for the Democratic presidential nomination against Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y.) Now compare ( “For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of country not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change,” Mrs. Obama told the Madison crowd, sparking outrage from conservative critics and fodder for an online ad produced by the Republican party in Tennessee.) Absent from the first quote is the word “really.” Leaving out the word “really” when asking Cindy McCain about her feelings regarding Michelle Obama’s sentiments implies Michelle was “not” proud of her country. Michelle has always been proud of her country and is a partiot in the highest order. This is evidence by her citizenship and willingness to join with her husband in his pursuit of the highest office in our nation – the presidency of the United States. ABC News’ Ed O’Keefe needs to make sure he quotes with the highest regarding for jounalistic standards.

For the Obama enthusiasts, or cool aid drinkers, do you remember the 06 elections? When Nancy Peloser ran on the “When we democrats take over the congress next January, the first thing on our agenda is to lower gas prices.” I doubt you remember that. Your heads were firmly implanted in your backsides and you were drinking democrat cool aid just as you are now. I don’t know if you are YET aware that you are paying $5.00 per gal. That’s a hell of a DECREASE. Little did you know that the dems are responsible for not drilling here, no new refineries, no nuke energy. It was all GEORGE BUSH’s & CHENEY’s fault. You have made GW the equivalent of Moses & Jesus Christ during his terms, all because he defeated your party TWICE.. Bush went down to the Mississippi in New Orleans & directed Katrina inland to wipe out a democrat inspired slum called New Orleans. He is an OIL BARON that has caused prices to skyrocket???????? I have one more suggestion. You democrats that are praising Obama & his angry spouse should just keep drinking the kool aid. However, you should spike it with the Rev. Jones additive to enhance the taste and help you cope with a lost election in November. Ain’t no way Osama, er, Obama, will win this thing. Not that many stupid people in this country. Democrats are not smart people.

Posted by: Sharon | June 18, 2008, 7:47 pm 7:47 pm

Mr. and Mrs. Obama’s political views are too socialistic, too communistic for me. John McCain has this gun clinging, religion clinger’s vote. As for Mrs. McCain, her accomplishments and class far outshine Mrs. Obama’s, and Mrs. McCain doesn’t have to go in for a makeover…that should tell us something.
During a visit to Mother Teresa’s orphanage, Cindy noticed a dying baby. The orphanage could not provide the
medical care needed to save her life. So she brought the child home to
America for the surgery she desperately needed. The baby is now their
healthy, 16-year-old daughter, Bridget.
The McCains son, Jimmy – who was so young when he enlisted Cindy had
to sign consent forms for his medical tests before he could report for
duty. 19-year-old
Marine, Jimmy, is preparing for his second tour of duty.
21-year-old son, Jack, is poised to graduate from Annapolis.
Cindy has actually seen violence. She witnessed a boy get blown up by
a mine in Kuwait during a trip with an international group that
removes land mines from war-torn countries.
Mrs. McCain also is a hands-on philanthropist. She sits on the board
of Operation Smile, which arranges for plastic surgeons to fix cleft
palates and other birth defects. She also has helped organize relief
missions to Micronesia.
During a scuba-diving vacation to the islands, Mrs. McCain took a
friend to a local hospital to have a cut treated. She was shocked, and
saddened, by what she saw.
“They opened the door to the OR, where the supplies were, and there
were two cats and a whole bunch of rats climbing out of the sterile
supplies,” she recalled. “They had no X-ray machine, no beds.. To me,
it was devastating because it was a U.S. trust territory.”
As soon as she returned home, she arranged for medical equipment and
teams of doctors to be sent to treat the island children.
Michelle Obama may contribute to CARE, which fights global poverty and
works to empower poor women. Cindy sits on its board.
While the Democrat women talk about helping the poor and needy, Cindy
McCain actually rolls up her sleeves and does it. Who’s the
out-of-touch elitist?

Posted by: Lucy Wilson | June 18, 2008, 7:47 pm 7:47 pm

Of course she’s proud of her country. She’s white, born wealthy, and never had to lift a finger in her life. Isn’t that the way it is for everyone?
Good luck painting Obama as elitist by the way.

Posted by: Jimbob | June 18, 2008, 7:47 pm 7:47 pm

“You really thought there was free speech in this country? And you call us liberals because we don’t like what you say? Well guess what kidos, when Obama gets in power, you’ll be our slaves, we’ll make you eat dirt, we’ll force you to abort your babies, force your kids into our schools to do the same, and life will be good. Obama is change we can believe in, and you just better get used to it! Conservatives will be the new dinosaurs, and we’ll make sure to add them to the geologic column. And just to make you mad, we’ll say you are millions of years old.”
What a pencil-necked geek.
Boy!..How’s that for honesty?
Yeah..We know you’d like to do just what your mom typed for you. The problem is, you’re all a bunch of incompetent limp-wristed pansies who would just curl up in ball lamenting, waving a little white flag in one hand, as you cover your face from the raining blows with the other…if you ever actually had to be involved in a real conflict
You can’t make conservatives do anything we don’t want to do. You’re too weak and stupid.
I really hope you whack-job leftists keep up the rhetoric. You are making this really easy…and fun..in a humorously disgusting way.
In conclusion:
You are idiots.

Is Barack Hussein Obama a closet muslim? Heard he read the Koran while growing up. Not that it’s that big of a deal, but why is he lying about it? It’s the lie that is unfortunate. He should just admit he was raised a muslim, and say he’s moved on from that religion if that’s the case.

Posted by: John | June 18, 2008, 7:48 pm 7:48 pm

Cindy McCain is a class act; she does not have to modify her behavior in order to fit into some type of mold to please her husband’s constituents. Hillary Clinton was consistently abused by those progressive, allegedly pro-women Democrats, and now, Michelle Obama is being forced to smile and shut up for a make-over. Face the facts, it’s everyone’s loss. The party, however, is in real trouble if they feel a partner needs to be groomed or modified during the political process. Further, it is amazing the filth that comes out of the “progressive posts” – those who then have the nerve to turn and take the “moral high road” when it comes to someone who they may disagree with. Silly children. Women, regardless of the party, should stop and smell the caffeine. Hillary Clinton was the strongest candidate to come out of the Democratic Party in decades, and, because she was a woman, she was knocked back by the press and those lovely “Obama Girls”. (Dripping sarcasm from Massachusetts) Women have lost a great deal in such a short time, to come so far, only to be pushed away – for what? – to make way for a carpet bagging, political hack from Chicago.

“I don’t know why she said what she said,” Mrs. McCain….
A detailed explanation was provided about why Michelle Obama said what she said…including what she was talking about specifically…
Is Cindy McCain still on drugs? Or does she have a problem understanding the English language? Is something missing from her Stepford Wife Program?

Posted by: ecg3817 | June 18, 2008, 7:48 pm 7:48 pm

She should be proud of her country. She has no reason at all to bitch. She’s been brought up in the priviledged class all her life. So of course she wouldn’t understand when someone else calls it a struggle growing up in a racist, sexist, judgemental society. Anyone who truly believes that Michelle meant what she said is either a) trying to get as much political capital out of it as she can or b)doesn’t understand the true struggles of Americans and therefore isn’t qualified to be First Lady.

Posted by: Mia | June 18, 2008, 7:48 pm 7:48 pm

All of you people should be deeply ashamed that you have not given our political process the respect that it deserves. You should stop trying to make the President the savior of all things, and being trusting in God more. It seems that in recent years, the oddball, the sassy, the whacko, are the ones attracting all the attention. Old-fashioned respect is gone, along with respect for one another.

I’m curious, do any of you know the definition of racism? I keep noticing on ABC that the KLAN always post racist post about Obama. Have you ever experienced racism? When is the last time you went into a ****ONLY bathroom? Have you been sprayed with a water house? Attacked by police dogs? Lynched in front of your family members? Have you been called a N*$%R? Have you been spit on? You closet racist stop being cowards. Just say the way you feel. Stop living in guilt in the shade. We know its inside you. “If you got hate in your heart then let it out”. lol. It’s OK we can help you through your misunderstandings. You are going to hear about racism alright, just wait to the media hears about John McCain’s good Ol buddy Richard Quinn. In Due time friends.

After reading some of the comments, I can see that decency has gone out the window in this country. I hope none of you using dirty comments about the candidate’s spouses claim to be Christian. Muslims, environmentalists, atheists, agnostics, homosexuals, academics and whatever other group the average American bigot despises, have more self-dignity than to spout some of the things that many of you say.
On the story now: Cindy McCain’s comments were uncalled for. Laura Bush (a sweet lady) and the educated half of America knew what Mrs. Obama meant. Huckabee put it best when he said the GOP better be careful with attacks on the other candidate, otherwise it could backfire.

tom richards,
Obvioulsy comprehension and reading wasn’t your forte in school. Michelle Obama said ““What we have learned over this year is that hope is making a comeback. It is making a comeback and let me tell you something, For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am ****REALLY**** proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction and just not feeling so alone in my frustration and disappointment. I have seen people who are hungry to be unified around some basic common issues. It has made me proud.””

Posted by: IslandGyal | June 18, 2008, 7:52 pm 7:52 pm

Amazing how the slightest unpleasant word or suggestion against the Obamas immediately makes someone an evil wicked hate-monger.
It’s a thin line between love and hate, and I can’t wait till the obamas and their sycophants cross it.

JESUS said to love one another.
Being Christian is not a birth right… You have to take an action and live love… For by your love for one another, the world will know that you are MY disciples, said JESUS.
Don’t call yourselves Christians when you spread hate.
instead repent and receive the LORD.
And start to live love.

John McCain recently called for financial sanctions against the Sudanese government for killings in Darfur, but Cindy did not divest until the media questioned her about her investments. What hypocrites. She has inherited millions from her rich daddy and has not had to work for anything, so of course she is proud of her country.

Cindy is just showing that she has NO class, and is a petty, petty woman!! Why Cindy would want to go on T.V and try to stir up trouble again, after the current First Lady, Laura Bush, has shown such class, and grace, and understanding, and has defended Michelle, shows that Cindy McCain is a petty, and tacky, classless woman.
It was because some people could forgive Cindy McCain for stealing drugs from a charity to feed her addiction, and only avoiding a felony conviction for that because of her husband’s position as a politician, that John McCain is even able to run for the presidency. So for Cindy to be catty, and petty, shows a shallowness of character on her part.

Hillary lost because she deserved to lose. If sexism really was the large reason why she lost, then the feminists themselves are at fault for not dealing with it sooner. Yet, if they would have cried sexism in January, everyone would be laughing at them because the media was practically tripping over themselves coronating her President.
Let’s face it her sex helped her more than it hurt her. Maybe if she didn’t spend her time complaining about the rules instead of using strategy to win these small states and caucus states, she would be the winner. She knew the rules going in. Blaming the refs doesn’t win you games, and it doesn’t get you anymore respect.
I voted for Obama because I was sick of a Bush or Clinton running the country. And I am white and female if that matters, because apparently you are nothing to Hillary if you are not.
My husband couldn’t stand her–and he’s a hard core Republican.
I hope people voting for McCain find solace in a party that doesn’t even support equal pay. THAT is what setting women back decades, not the dumb idea that we have to elect women because we’re women. You can pretend that you are relevante enough to help McCain win, or you can come to terms with the fact that you have one vote just like everyone else. Hillary’s campaign was a trail of drama and unpaid bills. I’ve seen how she acts with her back against the wall–like some deranged college student cramming for a test that she’s destined to fail–no thanks, I’ll go with the candidate who had a better strategy and better control over the finances. She was erratic and unpredictable. Obama was cool and collected. Which is why he’s still in the running and why she is on the sidelines.

it does not take that much discernment to see which woman has been psychologically abused by her husband. I empathize with her. I think Mrs. Obama on the other hand is so healthy with clear and fair boundaries, that people don’t know what to think of such a healthy empowered woman

It doesn’t matter whether or not Mr Obama currently is Muslim or was Muslim when he was younger. But if true, he should be HONEST about it.
It’s doesn’t matter if he’s a Muslim, or was a Muslim. But if he’s lying about it, or trying to hide it, THAT’S A PROBLEM. Why lie about it? What else is he lying about?

Cindy McCain is a class act and will undoubtedly support her man who is an excellent candidate for president. Michele however seems to be to be a racist lady with a hunger for power and will use her husband to get it. Barack may be a good man but I do not think he has a good team mate!

But of course the McCain campaign would never attack Michelle in anyway. McCain’s campaign just said that today.
Too bad someone forgot to give Cindy the memo. Whoops!
Maybe Michelle can mention that at least she doesn’t steal drugs from a children’s charties she’s in charge of, that’s how she shows her pride in her country. I mean, if past stuff of wives is suddenly in play. Or maybe Michelle can mention that at least her husband didn’t marry her after leaving his previous maimed wife and their children. Yep, that’s something to be proud of Cindy. She needs to stop talking about Michelle’s issues and be thankful more people aren’t talking about hers.

Gee Ms McCain, you were born into a millionaire family, had everything handed to you, yet you still didn’t have the moral strength to not to take Johm from his crippled wife… you still didn’t have the strength not to steal drugs because of an addition… and you think you have the right to lecture Ms Obama on anything… a woman who through hard work and support from her family managed to break through many barriers. You do not have that right.

d. davis, he wasn’t a Muslim, that’s why he doesn’t say he was one. See how that works? He wasn’t one because his father was one, it doesn’t work that way. Obama wasn’t raised one, he never practiced as one. He was raised by Christian people the vast majority of his life or atheists. And later became Baptised as a Christian. Which makes him a Christian.
But why bother saying facts, clearly that is besides the point with you and people like you. Sad.
Not as sad as Cindy and her recipe stealing ways, but sad nonetheless.

Posted by: Heidi | June 18, 2008, 8:12 pm 8:12 pm

Michael, I too am crying. This is bigger than just insulting Michelle. It’s insulting to our society that people would put these vile words out there. America is a great country only because we strive for equality… but that doesn’t seem to be true in the presidential arena. I am hurt, saddened, and deeply angry that Americans would espouse these beliefs. For God’s sake. Read the constitution!!! Read the law, read a freaking book!
For one, He’s not a Muslim. For two, even if he was, that would not be grounds to not vote for him.
Additionally, Michelle Obama did what we all hope our children will do. She worked hard, earned a degree, earned a good job, fell in love with a man that respects her, and became a mother to children who are smart, respectful, and beautiful. Why would any one treat her this way. If she were white, it would be a non-issue.
While I will fight to the death to defend your right to cling to your beliefs, I hope that one day you learn what it means to love. For in love, you would see that all this hate is wasteful, stupid, and prohibitory to progress.
While I will vote for Sen. Obama, I do not claim to represent his campaign.
Progess is inevitable… get on board.

I can’t believe that people are so petty and desparate to keep bringing up this error she made while addressing a reporter’s question.
I am a longtime Republican, but I will be very happy to see a change of mentality. We need a change. I will not vote for McCain.

I wonder if all of you people who are talking about Cindy and John McCain having loose morals are the same ones that defended Bill Clinton when he was getting “satisfaction” from the intern – in the Oval Office, saying that it was between he and his wife when he lied under oath and was impeached. As far as the McCains dating each other when John was married…remember, “I did not have sexual relations with that woman.” DOUBLE STANDARD!

She’s a pathetic excuse for a woman. No wonder her husband refers to her a c__nt.

I’ll try and explain. I love my children, but I’ve not always been proud of their actions. Like Mrs. Obama, I love my country, but I’ve not always been proud of the decisions it has made. What better love for ones country than someone who is not afraid, not condecending and will tell the truth? What man, Rev. Wright, can be more patriotic to a country than one who would proudly and honorably fight for a country during a time when people of his race were considered less than second classed citizens, unequal, and often less than human. A person who cares will be honest with you. While others go along, talk about you behind your back, are indifferent or laugh at you a person who cares will tell it like it is. Even if it makes you angry, ends a friendship, a relationship. They will tell you when you’ve had too much to drink at a party and are making a fool of yourself They will tell you when you have bad breath, a body odor, stinky armpits because they care enough to let you know so others wont’t smell you and talk about you behind your back. Well, in a sense, this is what honest people like Michelle Obama, Rev. Wright has said to America, “Look at yourself, AMERICA! You are much better than this. We expect better. You’ve let yourself go, America! You have body odor! Stinky armpits and your breath smells high to heaven!”—-”And you’ve become so drunken with power that you’ve become ruthless, careless about wars!” “You’re image around the world STINKS!” “You give the impression you have no scruples! We expect better of you AMERICA!” But as usual, America can’t handle the truth about itself! After all, America are the GOOD GUYS! Or at least, that the image it has tried to project to the world, only to fall short.

I wanted Hill as pres as much as anyone, but some of my fellow supporters of Hill really cross the line with their comments. There are idiot Obama supporters just like there are idiot Clinton and McCain supporters, but that doesn’t mean they are all like that. As to Michelle vs Cindy, I have more in common with Michelle. She is from a working class family who had to actually work for a living. Cindy, while I’m sure is a good person, was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and really has no idea what it means to struggle and work two jobs and face foreclosure like Americans today are facing. Really drives me nuts when rich people try to relate to us regular folk, they just can’t and they will never get it.

While I will agree that it sucks that this election has brought racism out in the limelight. But, OTOH, if these feelings are out there, shouldn’t we be talking about what is at the root of these tensions?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but it was those involved with the Obamas who injected racism into this election?
And all the whitey-taunting comments from a significant amount of posters here, just confirms what I (as a white male living in an 80% black city) already knew.
There is a fair number of you who do not want progress in the area of race relations. See, then you don’t have an excuse for why you are such a loser.
It’s much easier to blame someone who you don’t even know for your lack of initiative. The fact is, if your life sucks, it is because of your own bad decisions.
Or..you might just be stupid.

Cindy McCain needs to get over it… she needs to understand that our Constitution allows us to express ourselves in anyway we feel, without fear of retribution, without the need to explain the unspoken thoughts that may have preceded the actual spoken words. Moreover, thought is abstract, based upon the perception of the individual making some obtuse connection in a way that might be expressed simply for the sake of self-gratification.
Cindy needs to accept the fact that Michelle Obama is a very capable woman, well-educated, and quite frankly, well-spoken. Simply being Republican does not corner the market on being patriotic. We are a nation of people, from diverse backgrounds and beliefs, and given her position in life as a Senator’s wife and a well-invested woman in her own right is no different than Michelle Obama having attending Princeton and Harvard Law School, much less being a vice-president of a major Chicago-based company.
Cindy should think before she speaks.

Marv:
You say that “the lives of the candidates are open to discussion, the lives of their families are not”.
If the family members of the candidates present themselves in public to support the candidate with public speeches, then they become public figures in their own right. If Mrs. Obama chooses to represent her husband’s political interests at public forums, then she is presenting herself in public as a public figure. She no longer can claim to be just a private citizen. Her image and her speech have been televised to millions of viewers, and people have a right to comment on what she has said and how she has presented herself.
Just because she is not herself a candidate does not mean that her views, her background and her demeanor should be ignored. If she would have these things ignored, she should have remained off camera and behind the scenes. Only then could Sen. Obama demand that criticism of his wife be considered unfair. However, Mrs. Obama has chosen to become a public figure, and she is consequently now fair game for public criticism.

Just Say No to John George W. McCain Bush
“He knew who I was, at that time, because I had a reputation as a writer. I knew he was part of the Bush “dynasty”. But he was nothing, he offered nothing, and he promised nothing. He had no humor. He was insignificant in every way and consequently I didn’t pay much attention to him. But when he passed out in my bathtub, then I noticed him. I’d been in another room, talking to the bright people. I had to have him taken away.” – Hunter S. Thompson, on meeting George W. Bush at Thompson’s Super Bowl party in Houston in 1974
Yes – and Thompson also said this: “”In four short years he has turned our country from a prosperous nation at peace into a desperately indebted nation at war. But so what? He is the President of the United States, and you’re not. Love it or leave it.” –on George W. Bush”
And with all his ‘experience’ John McCain wants to continue those policies if he is elected. That’s supposed to encourage Americans to vote for McCain? No thanks.

Obama is a true gentleman and obviously one of the brightese men running this cycle. I know how that makes some
Republicans feel but, although I am a registered Republican, I still must admit it is a true statement. Can anyone with even half a brain tell me how Cindy McCain, who stole drugs from her treatment program, could make a credible lecture to Michelle or even Barak Obama. Amazing that John McCain even lets her out of the house. Then remember John McCain’s own nasty hateful comments about his wife, and his calling her a C***. He should know I guess. Perhaps he may have good reason to do so, but imagine a presidential candidate who talks like that. Can’t you just hear McCain at a big state dinner, when the other guys wife says something he dislikes so he loses his temper and says the same obnoxious statement to the wife of some visiting dignitary. McCain cannot even hold his temper on small matters when his own wife is involved. The person he should cherish above all others. We cannot afford to let him represent us in large matters. Those who make vile, vulgar comments to their own wife and also the wife who steals drugs has no right whatsoever to complain about anything he or she supposes another politician thinks or has done. The entire family is not in control and they have demonstrated that very publicly. So my advice to both Cindy and John is shut your mouths!!!!! Every time you say something like this, you force us to recall your unforgettable behaviors in the past.

You people are racist and dumb: The property values will plummet if the Obamas move into the White House? That is SO funny. Or racist and idiotic to boot: there are no homes around the White House. Will the Treasury building value drop?
And Michelle Obama looks like a pig? That sounds like bitter jealousy to me: her Princeton and Harvard educated right pinky would likely smoke you in a debate and it scares you to no end so the only thing you can say is that you don’t like the way she looks. Boy-what integrity-that’s the way to stick it to them! You can’t argue on policy so you go after looks. Who needs you?

If you all want a peek into what Michelle thinks about White Americans, read her thesis, or listen to her former minister.

Neither Barrack Obama nor Michelle want to be lectured by anyone because they are the elite in this country who know it all and cannot be corrected, and if they are, they bring out the race card. It is sad when one cannot disagree with a Presidential candidate without being labeled a racist.

Appeasement – certainly, “peace in our time” represents a great foreign policy/strategic/military blunder. But now, now we have “mission accomplished” to represent another great foreign policy/strategic/military blunder.
“Mission accomplished” – yet the mission never was factual, it certainly wasn’t accomplished, the unintended results have been great and negative, incompetence is demonstrated from the Oval Office and the neo-cons and our ‘president’ are discredited. The Republicans are not only broken, they’re in disarray and routed.
Bush’s “Mission Accomplished” quote is a current day equivalent to Neville Chamberlain’s “Peace in our Time.” Those quotes equally symbolize and illustrate failure. Bush and Chamberlain both will be remembered forever as disasters in office.
For John McCain to question Barack Obama’s preparation for job is a real hoot, like Chamberlain atacking Churchill because he wasn’t prepared for the job. John McCain will, if elected, continue George W. Bush’s disatrous policies, the policies of a man and a party that has had a Katrina like effect upon our nation. That’s why McCain must be defeated.

For everyones information FLIP-FLOPPING is what OBAMA was doing to Larry Sinclair in the back of his limo. Later the next day they went back to Larry’s house for more, this time OBAMA tried out his famous corn hole on Larry then they switched it up a bit with OBAMA FLOP-FLIPPING instead of just FLIP-FLOPPING, just to spice it up a bit.
Larry remarked that he noticed two moles on OBAMA’S
pole. Now if OBAMA’S pole does indeed have two moles,
that means Larry is telling the truth.
Maybe we need to take a national pole on the two moles
on OBAMA’S pole. Because if Larry is telling the truth about OBAMA’S pole and the two moles he noticed during a corn hole, well someone has a lot of explaining to do.

The Republican presidential contender told the former Clinton State Department official: “They (Hamas) are the government, sooner or later we are going to have to deal with them, one way or another.”
He went on: “I understand why this administration and previous administrations had such antipathy toward Hamas because of their dedication to violence and the things that they not only espouse but practice, so…
“But it’s a new reality in the Middle East. I think the lesson is people want security and a decent life and decent future, that they want democracy. Fatah was not giving them that.”"

Ahh:
You do realize that Bush has a greater approval rating that 20%? Have you ever heard of a thing called push-polls?
A push poll is a political campaign technique in which an individual or organization attempts to influence or alter the view of respondents under the guise of conducting a poll.
Bush is still very favored with many Americans, including many a-political Americans who appreciate that GW did what he had to do to keep this country safe for the past 7 years – all the while ignoring the negative press trying to bring him down.

For all the publicity about the Clintons’ $109 million income earned since leaving office, you’d think John McCain would know better. “The Arizona senator declared income of $419,731 in 2007 – a fraction of the multi-million dollar earnings reported by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, his Democratic rivals.” But nothing about his wife’s income – As reported in Financial Times: “But the disclosure excluded the income of his wife, Cindy, the heiress to a large Arizona beer distribution company, whose wealth is estimated at more than $100m (€63.5m, £50.2m).” Why, Johnny, why?
This event is simply more evidence that Republicans talk the talk but they can’t and won’t walk the walk. John McCain, particularly, is a man with a record of accomplishment and honor who is diminished by his acts in later life.
That John McCain promises, if elected, to continue the policies of George W. Bush – and George W. Bush’s single greatest ‘accomplishment’ is to take James Earl Carter’s place as the worst president in American history is disgraceful and that is high on the list of why John McCain illustrates integrity lost.

Cindy McCain can go to hell. Who cares what some millionaire, botox freak show has to say anyway? Michelle would destroy her in a battle of wits any day of the week. The same goes for the highly intelligent Obama, versus the 200 year old dinosaur, who graduated at the absolute bottom of his class, and had a peculiar history of crashing planes while in the navy. A vote for McCain is a vote to continue America’s current path: war, possible economic depression, intolerance, destruction of our constitution, corporate crimes, etc.
Obama is the choice of today’s America.
The college students who will be leading this nation very shortly, have spoken, and will continue to speak, because this is our nation now. Obama refers to us as: “The New Majority”, and we’ll be around for a long, long, time! :)

Both Obamas are products of Affirmative Action. They are where they are because liberals during the Clinton years lowered standards for “protected groups”. Obama is nothing more than an affirmative action “anchor baby.” I don’t even condider him to be an American. Look into his Moslem background. He went to a Catholic and registered as a Moslem. The democrats have now made the presidency into another affirmative action quota position. This guy is a phony. Most of the people commenting haven’t even looked at his voting record or achievements (which are approaching zero). His wife is just another affirmative action statistic: a black female. A double hit. Let’s look at what each of the candidated, and their wives, bring to the position of president. I certainly don’t want to be represented to the world by two socialist, moslem American haters. Michael would only be qualified to entertain at McDonalds or some place of equal dignity.

Texas Liberal Chick:

Michelle was an affirmative action student. That means that she ATTENDED PRINCETON, but it does not mean that she is educated. She went to most of her classes. She didn’t have to perform as white students have to perform. So, there is no way of measuring what, if anything, she “learned.” That is because “affirmative action students” are NOT tested. Therefore, you cannot know if she is educated.
You have zero right to call other posters “racist” or “dumb.” After all, it might be your attitude that is racist and dumb, not their statements. You have an exaggerated opinion of your rights.
NOBODY TAKES THEIR OATH ON A BIBLE OR A QUR’AN OR A KORAN OR ANYTHING OF THE KIND.

“He wasn’t one because his father was one, it doesn’t work that way. ”
It does work that way and you are the one that needs education on that issue Heidi. , Since you won’t take my word for it than I’m sure you’ll take the word of your favorite news source the New York Times quoting Obama’s half sister:
‘In Islam, religion passes from the father to the child. Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. [his Kenyan birth father] was a Muslim who named his boy Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. Only Muslim children are named ‘Hussein’.”
More from the New York Times: [Barack Obama's] stepfather, Lolo Soetoro, was also a Muslim. In fact, as Obama’s half-sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng explained to Jodi Kantor of the New York Times: ‘My whole family was Muslim, and most of the people I knew were Muslim.’ An Indonesian publication, the Banjarmasin Post reports a former classmate, Rony Amir, recalling that ‘All the relatives of Barry’s [Barack's] father were very devout Muslims.””

As a small business owner and a Democrat, I have estimated my business expences under both canidates and their economic proposals. Under the McCain proposal, I will retain my tax status as it is and continue to employ the additional two employess I hired under the Bush tax plan for small business. I then did a comparision under the Obama proposal, and I would incur a raise in my business taxes and my employees would have to pay higher payroll taxes. I know there is alot of you here that remember President Carter, and I voted for him, but under Obama’s restructing plan, I am going to loose money now and may have to lay off at least one employee by next year possibly. I have to vote for McCain. I’m sorry but I just can’t afford not to.

As I read some of these comments I wonder what happen to common courtisy. you can disagree with out being disagreable. I thought this was a country were you were innocent until proven guilt. But there are a lot out there that just want to keep spouting off rumors and lies. You just show how ignorant you are.
Obama tried drugs just like most young adults did. I grew up in the sixties and I don’t know very many people who have not tried something. Does not mean they are addicts.
Cindi was not only addicted to Drugs (which I can understand if you are on pain killers, I can over look that) but what I cannot over look is that she stole from her own charitable organization.
I think this cookie contest is stupid myself. But Cindi actual turned in a recipe that was not hers and, as far as I saw the news this morning, has done it again. That is called Plagiarism (passing off something as your own Idea when it is not)
McCain, what u tube, make a remark a couple of days ago that is is tough to be Proud. Why is it ok for him to say that but not Michele to say she is Really Proud for the fist time. Not just proud but Really proud.
For the rest of you that say nice things about her and Obama. LOVE YOU.
I have never been involved in politics before because I don’t care for Politicians. I am for Obama, but I have checked out to make sure that I am making an informed decisions.

Consider your own words, “Mrs. Obama looks decent and conservative” YET SHE IS A HATE-FILLED, RACIST, MARXIST-LENINIST ELITE SNOB, WHO BEGRUDGES HER FREE YEARS AT PRINCETON WITH NO GRATITUDE. She gives little to charity and only works if the money is high pay.
Again, consider your own words, “Mrs. McCain looks like the typical pretentious, elite, posh, self-proclaimed queen of all . . .” YET SHE IS A GIVING PERSON WHO HAS DEVOTED HER LIFE TO TEACHING SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN AND DEVOTED HER CHARITY TO MEETING THE MEDICAL NEEDS OF SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN AROUND THE WORLD [of all colors] AND EVEN ADOPTED ONE TO BE HER OWN DAUGHTER.
Michelle may look “conservative” but that is ALL AN ACT. In fact, she has lived the life of a spoiled woman.
Cindy may look “spoiled” but she has lived the life of a giving woman, who devoted her life to charity.

So why won’t Barack Hussein admit his Mulsim heritage? It’s not a bad thing. Many Muslim-Americans would rejoice in his diversity. And he would garner much support around the world if he would acknowledge that he knows of Mohammed – The Praised One.
What is wrong with Barack Hussein Obama acknowledging his youthful Islam background? America needs to realize that the world is very pro-Islam, and would welcome such a diverse President as Obama.

An incompetent, lying black man – with a pschotic looking wife – that possesses an African name is not going to be voted into the office of the presidency of the United States. The few people I know who are going to vote for Obama are doing so as they think they are getting someone else to pay for health care. Having just informed them that the few workers they have will be given 401K plans and will be on the books, their glee has turned sour as they realize it is always about “OIL” – “Obama Is Lying”
Jack
P.S. Americans don’t vote in candidates who are weaklings, and Obama is a liar, a lightweight, and a fool. Research “Bradley Effect”. Smart blacks can go very far in America. Ones that are better suited to terrorists and Snoop Dog don’t. See what a “uniter” the lying bastard is?

Remember Cindy McCain is the old Drug abuse who got off scott-free after she illegally forged a doctor’s name to a drug prescriptions. She never went to jail, I am not even sure she was charged with the crime. But I do note that if this had been some poor kid without the McCain connections, they would have been in prison for many years on that drug charge. If I were Cindy McCain, I would quit the mud slinging or I intend to blast this information all over the net, every network and in every news paper opinion page I can get to. People who are druggies should never throw stones at a fine citizen like Michelle.

Look let’s face it. The Obama Mama spent years attending a church led by the racist Reverend Wright. She cannot not help negativity toward white people and the country she lives in ..Remember Wright saying “God Damn America” Everyone is a reflection of who they associate with.

Neil B:
I do NOT post “rubbish.”
I would say the same thing if I were identified.
Perhaps you have not attended college since affirmative action.
In fact, “black” students cannot fail.
Black students can do ANYTHING in class and not fail.
Black students can write ANYTHING and get a good grade.
Black students do not have to perform as well as white students on tests. Black students do not have to write thesis papers as well as white students. Black students can say anything, do anything, and get good grades. THEY ARE NOT HELD TO THE SAME STANDARDS AS WHITE STUDENTS!!!
And, I am not the only one who noticed. Even Bill Cosby (who got his PhD BEFORE affirmative action) has noted the same.
INTELLIGENT BLACK STUDENTS HATE AFFIRMATIVE ACTION BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT THEY ARE NOT BEING JUDGED AS ACCOMPLISHED AS LONG AS AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EXISTS. INTELLIGENT BLACK STUDENTS HATE AFFIRMATIVE ACTION BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT THEY ARE NOT BEING JUDGED AS ACCOMPLISHED AS LONG AS AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EXISTS. (You will never hear someone like Michelle Obama condemn affirmative action; she benefited greatly from this liberal white guilt program.)

You can talk about Bush’s gaffe’s but do a search and you will see who has the bigger ones…oh that’s right. You don’t think for yourself, you take everyone else’s talking points.
Question: in the past 50 years who started the most wars?

I’ve always tried to think of a funny way to tell people about that.
I’m going to use it…
I will give credit to Mr. Know it all at abcnews.com.
“500 bucks on McCain? Um, hope you loaded because you’re going lose that $500. Obama’s going to win. Easily.”
said Dem in Chicago
We gotcha…
$500 buck is chickenscratch to you. Heck, that’s just one donation from some wide-eyed, misguided leftist drone (via loan from his/her mother)
Look, We know you want your man to win. You’ve got to be fuming right now reading some of these comments, eh?
So lets just get it all out. Why do you hate whitey so much?
I wonder, “Dem in Chicago”, what in your past, has caused you to come to the point in your life, that has you hating an entire race? (90% of whom are in much worse financial shape than you will ever be)
What kind of twisted influence can lead a person who has never experienced personel racial oppression in her young life to hate so many people who have never done anything to “keep her down”, or cause her any discomforts whatsoever?
Was it the Jeremah Wright lectures?
Maybe it was just politically necessary among your husbands constituents, at the time,to hate whitey
Why, Dem in Chicago, should your comments have any other effect on me, or anyone else who reads them any feeling other than righteous indignation?
Do you, Dem in Chicago, really want to see true racial equality?
I don’t think you do.
You are worse than a racist. You actively incite racism.
Oh…you aren’t Michelle…and really just some idiot in Chicago?
Oh well…sorry, I guess.

She has a case to hate white people, though I implicitly doubt Michelle was ever foolish enough to use the word whitey. And whitey is an epithet that’s deserved. It is. As a midwestern white American male I believe Michelle Obama has all the right in the world to refer to you f*ing idiots as “whitey” – it’s earned and deserved. Beyond that, I don’t believe either of them hate this country. That notion bleeds ludicrousness. The Obamas, for f*ing once in this country, call it as they see it. God (or whatever regressive deistic bullshit you ascribe to) knows that’s not a crime. At least in this country. At least for a few more years, anyway, until you fascist theistic freaks give it away to the government so they can turn it against you, as they have everything else. Keep looking for chinks in the armor that’ll save your outdated notions. And then, when the McCains burn, just as Bush did, then we can hang you high for high crimes against humanity. A vote for McCain is a war crime. Deal with it. It’s the f*ing truth.

As a loyal Democrat and KKK member (remember the Dems are the party of the KKK), I fell compelled to offer the following.
John McCain, a war hero son of a war hero, and a true Democrat in disguise.
Obama, a Marxist, son of a Marxist hippie slut and a typical black man who split town. Plus he looks like Alfred E. Neumann.
Think I’d rather vote for the Republican in name only than the Marxist basturd.

Hmmm….let’s see
SINdy McCain’s pastimes include:
Being an adulterous whore by sleeping with John Insane while he was still married to his severely disabled wife who was at home taking care of their 4 children (So much for those Republican family values)
Using her “volunteer” efforts to feed her drug habit
Thievery as she stole drugs from the organization that she was “volunteering” with. The only reason she is not an ex-con today is because she’s her father’s daughter and her husband’s wife
Compare and contrast that with Michelle Obama:
Princeton and Harvard Law school educated attorney
Upstanding member and servant of her community
Faithful wife and mother to two daughters
Honest and intelligent woman who actually (gasp) loves her husband not the political glory that being his wife can bring
And let’s get real… Michelle Obama is a classic, naturally beautiful woman unlike the plastic surgery dimwit that is SINdy McCain.

Geez, the nonsense the dems come up with is really very telling. Michelle Obama is nothing but an american hating trash. And as far as her comparison to Ms. McCain—the facts speak for themselves despite all the dem and media spin—McCain’s wife is much more respectable than hateful Michelle. BTW, there are some major differences between some patient getting addicted to pain meds following treatment for something indeed severely physical painful such as a back injury and some idiot thug getting to MIND ALTERING ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES.

John McCain doesn’t even know where he stands on the issues! That ABC will be putting out this old news of attacks on Michelle Obama to distract from the lack of support of McCain from his own party, and the flip-flopping on the issues that has become his trademark in this election, is a shame.
When will ABC stop distracting the public from focusing and discussing the weighty issues of the day– unemployment, an economy in recession, high gas prices and what is to be done about the obscene windfall profits for the oilmen, global warming, natural disasters, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, etc–instead of the focus on comments by someone who is not even running for my vote?

Hmm, Please re-read them, make a count if you need to, I think if you are a tiny bit objective, it is pretty obvious that the venom and vulgarity is far more common with the left wing posters than the right.
I read blogs and comment threads both those dominated by the left and the right. The difference is pretty stark, its pretty hard to miss.

Carol McCain has told anyone who asks that she supports John McCain for President. Not only their daughter, but Carol’s two children by her first husband (who was not on track to be an Admiral) support John McCain for President.
Carol McCain was on Nancy Reagan’s staff in the 1980 campaign, and Director of the Inaugural Ball. She was on the White House social staff for both Reagan terms, and went on to other event planning jobs. She is far from the reclusive, disfigured, disabled person portrayed by Senator McCain’s enemies.
Cindy McCain skimmed Percocets from a non-profit clinic’s Rx. (It was a non-profit because the Hensley Foundation subsidized it.) Barak Obama bought “weed and blow” on the street. I don’t know that either of these is “better” than the other.
The Cindy Hensley McCain pre-nup is common where one spouse is part-owner of a family company. Usually the other family members push for it. It prevents the Carol Shepp McCain children from becoming voting stockholders in Hensley Corporation.

I am really surprised at the anger that this blog question has brought out. I want to encourage all of us to remember that in about six months either the Obamas or the McCains will be the First Family.
On both sides, I hope that we can begin treating Barack and Michelle as well as John and Cindy with respect. They are working very hard to prepare to lead our country out of many difficult circumstances. We need to all pull together to help them, especially after the election.
By the way, I’m a Republican who will probably vote for Obama. We need the best problem solver for these times, and Michelle can help too.

I personally do not believe anything that comes from the Obama’s mouth. The true feeling of someone is known when that person makes unprepared comments or responds to unexpected question. Michele Obama’s comment of her being proud of America for the first time in her adult life, is truely her inner feeling and view about America. It is when people critcized her statement that she started clarifying; all for politics. Her appearance on the ‘view’ today was planned and everythnig she said was planned and rehearsed, all for political expediency. His husband is very good at that, and I just don’t trust this Obamas.
I am a black, and admire the way most black women dress fittly in this country. Unfortunately, when it comes to Michele Obama, I wonder if she has any taste of fashion. Sometime she dress and look so awful. Her hair is the worst, and I don’t know if she has a hair stylist. How can she and the husband fit in the world stage representing America? This is really a joke that Michele Obama becomes the first lady of Ghana, and Barrack Hussein Obama becomes the president of America.
Fellow Americans, wake up against this socialist and lets root them out before they take over our beloved country.

At least Cindy McCain isn’t borderline retarded. Michelle Obama is an affirmative action artifact with a much undeserved sense of entitlement. I challenge any of the posters here to read her senior thesis from Princeton and defend it. I’m not even talking about defending the substance of the thesis — the structure and grammar are sloppy and, in many cases, just plain incorrect. There are sentences without subjects! It’s embarrassing that someone so intellectually lazy could ascend through the university system in the place of someone more deserving solely on the basis of the color of her skin and the fervor with which she is willing to spew leftist tripe.
Forget about her anti-Americanism, Michelle Obama’s apparent illiteracy is a far more glaring problem.

I don’t like any of them and I’m very conservative and a God-Grabber type person. If you don’t like God, no problem one day you’ll have to tell Him why…whether you like it or not.
Where do you think Hitler is…or Caligula…or Nero….or the African Chieftans who SOLD their fellow tribes to the white man back in the 1800′s.
Funny how racism only happens in American yet in Darfur they are raping BLACK folk daily w/out one cry from BO or Michelle mybell.

I don’t give a damn who is in office at this point!! The country and economy are a freaking mess and this administration has screwed everything up!
Hell Yeah I blame Bush and His Cohorts, BUT what scars me more, is who will these guys take at thier VP??
It better be someone who can take over, giving the American people a sense of peace and security.

I’m a Canadian viewer looking in on your elections and from what I’ve seen here is what will happen if you elect McCain. You will elect a man who will bridge the Parties and work for all Americans and continue to keep America safe.
If you elect Obama you are opening Your United States to be like Europe and Canada because he is Socialist in his views like most Libs. Believe this or not, I live in a Country that has gone from good to bad and I mean bad because of Leftist socialist politically correct views. Take a look at the fight going on now in Canada about Hate speech and Human Rights Commissions. We are losing our freedoms here in Canada. You want Public Paid Health Care. You will go bankrupt and have shortages of doctors nurses and every other specialist in the Medical field because they won’t be making money anymore. That is a result of Public Health Care. Don’t get me wrong Canada still has a lot of traditionalists trying to keep this country from falling into totalitarianism but it is a difficult struggle.
Elect Obama and you will become Canada.

Obama will raise your taxes:
Please go read the article from the Wall Street Journal. Inheritance taxes would be starting at 3.5 million. I do not know to many people that make that much.
Payroll taxe limite are already at $102,000. I and my few employees do not make that much. Since I am already paying taxes on that amount. it makes no difference.
And if you read the article, people like me, our taxes might even go down some.
Besides, in any other country we would be paying alot more already.

Michelle is doing double-talk. She did say she was proud of her country for the first time because Barack was running for president. What about her Ivy League education? That should have made her proud. Why would she let her girls sit in all those hate-filled sermons? Shame on Barack AND Michelle.

Wow, browsing these comments you can really understand what is wrong with our country. How about just not trashing these two women in the crudest terms (which is what I am reading) and actually thinking about the issues facing our country.

Funny how the Republicans have dysfunctional characters and they are smeared. One question, are these guys still in the party?
One word….. Gary Sturgis and Barney Frank. Talk about faggets! Barney had a male prostitute working out of his house. Sturgis was censured on the house floor for HAVING sex with kids! Yet …the silence is deafening.
What about T Kennedy in Chapequidic (poor Mary Jo) and BTW, Bush has been trying to get away from the Saudi’s for years. Even now he’s saying get our own oil. Who has been and is now opposing him? The Libs folks.
What is bad for America is good for the dims. These people thrive on bad news as it makes good campaign fodder.

Michelle Obama simply hates whitey.
She knows it, we know it, and her husband’s campaign knows it. So she has to go on dull shows like “The View,” hosted by a simpleton who took the name of a whoopie cushion (with brains to match), and say “I have always been proud of my country.”
No, missy, you haven’t. You are saying that now because Barry Hussein’s handlers don’t want you to become one more reason for the American people to reject her inexperienced husband’s candidacy.

Obama means by middle class , under $75,ooo/household!
That is actullay poor for majority of the working class per household!
If two people work , that household makes more than $75,000.
Obama will raise your capital gains nontransferreble taxes to 28%.
It is pathetic!
100million people will get effected!

When you say conservatives are mean-spirited, is it just deflection you are using. I don’t see where people refer to MO as anything in that type of derogatory manner. Whether you like the person or not, you should at least try to respect them.

“Cindy McCain needs to get over it… she needs to understand that our Constitution allows us to express ourselves in anyway we feel, without fear of retribution, without the need to explain the unspoken thoughts that may have preceded the actual spoken words.”
Yes, Cindy McCain needs to remember that free expression applies to Democrats, and that Republican (or otherwise conservative) speech is invalidated by its innate racism and stupidity. It’s a freakin’ miracle this country has survived nearly 250 years given all the non-Progressive leadership (at every level) we’ve endured……

Anyone interested in why our gasoline is so high, check out “Countdown” tonight. McCain and all his lobbyists passed a little known law called “the ENRON LOOPHOLE” It was passed during the election debate of 2000, and Phil Graham (yup, McCain’s buddy) was instrumental in getting it thru. (Then ENRON hired Phil’s wife, with a HUGH salary) They ran up the electricity in California (caught on tape bragging about it)and now the petroleum spectulators are running up the futures which makes the cost of OIL artifically high, not the true cost, but just a means to make BIG BUCKS. Wise up Republicans, Corporate America has been running our country for 8 years. Join us in taking it back to integrity with Barack Obama. Dana

Yeah, let’s denigrate the women, all you out there who have not accomplished one bit as much as any of these three.
It’s so predictable, it’s almost funny.
Cindy McCain did not raise the subject of patriotism in this interview referenced above. She was baited by the interviewer involved. Better she had been asked the challenges she faces as the CEO of a major firm or what it’s been like to raise a child she adopted at the request of Mother Teresa.

Mrs. McCain is entitled to her opinion but regardless, Sen. Obama is the least qualified candidate either party has nominated in decades.

Some mother role model she is. What if John McCain let his children attend KKK rallies. He would be vilified by the press.
Also Obama cannot talk without a tele-prompter. That is why he is scared to face the public in town hall meetings. What are you afraid of Obama, a hard question from someone other than your fawning press?

Reading these racially offensive emails one does not even have to wonder whether or not Michelle Obama is really proud to be an American. It’s called “free speech”. Like Michelle Obama, I’m proud that for the first time in my 50 years, I am able to see a new generation of God’s people who are open to seeing individuals beyond skin color. I could insult Cindy McCain for her ignorance, but I chose not to do so. But, like many of you – she needs diversity education and intense understanding of those from ethnic backgrounds different from your own. Instead of making the hateful, racist and offensive statement,seek understanding and truth regardless of which candidate you support. I encourage you to look closely at your circles of influences. What do they look like? Are your friends truly representative of ALL America? Perhaps, like Cindy McCain the only African American female she might have ever known was her housekeeper who was probably treated second class or “less than”. Unlike Cindy McCain, Michelle Obama is not an “elitist”. She earned degrees from some of the finest schools in the US. Her accomplishments were not merely given to her, she earned them. I will take Michelle Obama any day for first lady instead of a rich and out of touch “rodeo queen”.

You people are absolutely insane. It’s either all or nothing. Obama’s comments were in poor taste. Cindy McCain’s actions constituted a felony. No one is perfect. Obama did drugs as a kid. John McCain cheated on his sick wife, divorced her and married the mistress.

Many Americans have no problem voting for a Woman or African American. But if they are racist and hate white people, why would anyone want to vote for them as the next President?
20 Years is a very long time to sit under teaching that is against whites. Jerry Wright doesn’t like white people. He was Obama’s mentor for decades. It appears that the Obama’s just want votes and are trying to hide their true feelings about their dislike, borderline hatred for white people.

We’ve defeated AlQaida and the Taliban (still mopping up) and coerced long time enemy Libya to relinquish WMDs. The liberal media has been shown to be the alarmist exaggerators that they are and weak western eurotrash have been revealed to be dhimmicrats in disguise. Go George! Go U.S. Armed Forces! USA! USA!

Cindy McCain is an adulteress and a former prescription drug addict who stole prescriptions from a medical charity she was working with so that she could fill them in co-workers names to feed her prescription drug habit. Until called on the carpet last month, Cindy McCain had significant amounts of money invested in Sudan where a brutal regime has crushed human rights. She is a millionairess who never worked a solid day of her life and who knowingly carried on an affair with McCain while he was still married to his first wife. Cindy has little to be proud of, and as Americans, Cindy McCain is NOT the kind of person we need representing the United States of America as First Lady. John McCain has referred to Cindy in public as a “trollop” and a c*#t–not exactly compliments coming from the man who should know her best.

McCain will be the next president if he does the right things….that is conservative things….drill oil, secure borders, run the illegal occupiers out of our country, support a childs right to live, strengthen the second ammendment rights, etc.

What one thing during the last 8 years (6 of which saw absolute power for conservatives) of conservatism makes the most patriotic and religious of you conservatives the proudest? Color Coded Fear? Greed? Religious Self-righteouness? 911? Iraq? Katrina? Enron? Terri Schaivo? The Patriot Act? Gas Prices? Short term gratification that our children and grandchildren will have to pay for? Intelligent design? Cronyism? Incompetence? God I’m tired…you get the idea.

“These comments are hilarious. I can just see the Obama and McCain staffers thinking hard trying to make up different names for their posts. good fun”
After thinking about it, I was going to agree, and share in the amusement.
“look, the power brokers will decide your next president like they have for the last 50 years”
Okay, right here, I’m with you until the fifty years part.
“and if another war needs to be started somewhere, they’ll just blow up a building in a major US city and let blind patriotism and fear make us all delusional while we willingly watch our freedom be taken away. wake the f*ck up everyone!!!”

You people are really too much! I am saddened by the degree of racism that still exists among White America. Your statements sicken me. You offer criticisms of the Obama’s and their church w/o even knowing THE church. The church is a body of baptised believers w/ a leader who serves at the will of he people. You have no absolute knowledge of the many ministries of Trinity UCC or the world-wide assistance THE church has provided. UCC is not an African American body, we are more than 60% White! And, while I do not totally agree with Rev. Wright’s statements, the media only showed a small portion of his sermon. Do you even know or care what church the McCain’s belong to or even attend regularly? Do you know who their pastor is? Why don’t you find out about him? Is his church “white” only? Or, is it diverse, like Trinity? My guess is you don’t care… You care about the Obama’s because of the color of their skin. With all of the filth, hateful and racially offensive statements many of you have made, ask yourselves– while stating untrue and hateful statements what type of role models are you being? Most of you appear as though you are hiding behind your hoods and using this blog as a method to “privately” release your racist and hateful personal opinions. You are entitled to free speech, but you need not to wonder why some are not so proud of you. I’m not!

I think Michelle Obama “excused” herself from the position of “First Lady” after the remarks she continues to make about America. I honestly think instead of being a “helpmate” for Obama, she is actually a liability….one that will add credence when he loses in the GE in November. Sorry, Obama’s, not this year…try again in 2012!

Posted by: david from texas | June 18, 2008, 11:41 pm 11:41 pm

Of course! Cindy McCain couldn’t possibly understand the Black struggle or why many blacks’ feelings on America remain conflicted. The struggles that still continue. The indignities that still takes place. She can’t understand in today’s times Black FBI agents being ignored at a restaurant. A 92 year old Black woman being gunned down in the privacy of her own home by rogue police. A young black male being gunned down on his wedding day by possibly drunken NYPD. She never knew someone or had to fight for equal rights, outrun a lynch mob. Had relatives beaten, raped, murdered for no other reason but the color of their skin in a land that proclaimed to be free, civilized, equal to all and a democratic nation. Who didn’t have voting rights until 1965. Cindy McCain has lived a privileged life. She doesn’t know about the indignities of having to ride on the back of a bus. Being sent away to fight on some foreign soil for the freedoms of someone she didn’t even know or for a country that still considered her a second classed situation. Someone lesser than a human. So, of course! Cindy McCain can’t possibly understand how someone would feel this is a moment in time “I can REALLY! feel proud of being an American!”

As a previous supporter of Hillary Clinton, I will not be voting for the socialis/marxist/communist/racist Senator Obama. He has not been honest with the people and he should not be trusted. Most of his policies were stolen from the Clinton campaign and now he has been flip-flopping on many issues. One simply does not know what this man will do. He is not trustworthy. And Michelle is an unhappy hate-filled woman.

When I was growing up, there were certain things you could count on…we’d never invade and occupy a country just because the president pushed it. Russians did that, not US. Americans would never torture prisoners as a matter of policy, directed right from the top,,,that was for Nazis, not us. Throw men in prison for years? Never tell them why, never have a trial? Or Lawyers? Good God, I thought that went out with Henry VIII.
Our country is in a shambles, and here’s this ice-cold frozen rich b**ch sneering at the spouse of her husband’s rival, flaunting her supposed superiority.

I appreciate her straight-forward candor. I have no doubt Michelle was expressing her true feelings. This is an evil country in her mind. Seeing her husband win a primary finally gave her a reason to be proud of this country. Well, that’s a little more self-centered than I’d like anyone to be. We all, everyone of us, owe a great deal of gratitude for America, for being Americans. I’m proud of Martin Luther King, Eisenhower sending troups to help integrate schools, voting rights acts, Rosa Parks, all of these give rise to patriotism. She has obviously led a sheltered life.

Because Barack is an admitted cocaine abuser (see his book) I think he should be submitted for drug testing before he is permitted to continue in the election. Also, a doctor should check his arms for track marks because most coke heads eventually turn to heroin when coke doesn’t do it any more. I don’t think having a coke head in the White House is a good idea.

Posted by: McCain is Panamanian | June 19, 2008, 12:33 am 12:33 am

MCAIN IS A PANAMAIN–READ THIS IF YOU CAN===Natural-born citizen
Who is a natural-born citizen? Who, in other words, is a citizen at birth, such that that person can be a President someday?
The 14th Amendment defines citizenship this way: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” But even this does not get specific enough. As usual, the Constitution provides the framework for the law, but it is the law that fills in the gaps.
Currently, Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in those gaps. Section 1401 defines the following as people who are “citizens of the United States at birth:”
Anyone born inside the United States
Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person’s status as a citizen of the tribe
Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year
Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)
A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.
Anyone falling into these categories is considered natural-born, and is eligible to run for President or Vice President. These provisions allow the children of military families to be considered natural-born, for example.
I WILL ACCEPT YOU APOLOGY NOW!!!

Louis…..where did you read that Mrs. McCain was proud of the things you posted? I think you are full of untruths, but if you could show me where she said she was proud of her heritage with regards to first four things you listed then I would most definitely send a campaign contribution to her husband, as then I would know for sure that we would have the right man to lead us in combating the racist black vote that are following in lockstep, by over 90% of their race, behind this racist fraud called obama. If nothing else this election has exposed blacks for the racist that they are. As a result they will never be able to play the race card again . The right looks righter everyday. Thanks obama for exposing your brain washed followers for the racist they are. Who would have ever thought that there number would total over 90% though? Take notice America, stop playing the fool for these people. Its time to put an end to Affirmative Action, look what it has brought to America!.

Cindy McCain needs to stop being a puppet for John McCain. Enough of the twisting peoples words. Cindy McCain is is a former drug addict with controlled substances. John McCain a former alcoholic and continues to have a Bad temper. Not to mention they both threw John McCain’s first wife and children under the bus so John could Marry the prettier richer Cindy after coming back from war. So much for Christian values. And why does she continue to plagerize receipes? Can’t she just use her cooks name? Instead she lies about the origin of the receipes. Lier. Drug Addict.

Isn’t it amazing that Obama’s attack dogs are going after Cindy McCain for drugs. In Obama’s own book he confesses to his wasted youth smoking marjuana, and apparently he some how graduated from Columbia while maintaining a heavy coke habit and never attending his classes (you can pass if you hang out listening to Marxist lecturers and Cooper Union) … I guess if you are a Marxist, you can skate through classes at Columbia and be a drug addict.

Now, let’s see if I’ve got this right: Cindy McCain and her father became multi-millionaires selling alcohol, an addictive substance. Then, she stole prescription pain killers from a charity. Somewhere along the line, or so it is widely believed, she carried on an affair with Senator McCain while his first wife was in physical rehab. Yup, that’s one classy lady!

Reparations to who?? Think of the Africans who came after the emancipation. Think of the Caucasions who came after them. Think of the white people (over 600,000) who died freeing blacks. Think of the affirmative action and ADC programs. Why do you think Obama’s Dad came here? It was opportunity. Not for a hand out. Black Americans who want the feds to write them checks make Africans world-wide disgusted. Other minorities just want a job and would die trying to get here for one. If that’s why you want Obama in, ask first how Michelle got to Princeton. She tried to excel.

Eagle. I am making my last response to you, before I go to sleep. You are an illiterate fool.
McCain was not born on base. Now slowly read again. Here is another article on the subject.
Doesn’t the Constitution exclude McCain from the Presidency?
By Michael J. Salamone – March 11, 2008, 11:28AM
“I’ve only seen whispering of the issue, but I feel since it’s a constitutional issue, it should be discussed more.
John McCain was born in the Panama Canal Zone, which was and is not a part of the United States of America.
The Constitution is clear, that to be eligible as President you must be a natural born citizen, that is someone born in the United States of America. You must also be 35 years old, and have resided in the country for the last 14 years.
The Constitution allows for only one exception: If you were born before the United States Constitution was ratified.
By Constitutional standards, McCain is ineligible to be President. Sure, you may say that it’s outdated. Sure, you may say that McCain’s parents were US citizens. But, you can not say that the Constitution’s language isn’t clear on this subject. While it may be politics d’jour to ignore the Constitution, it is still the supreme law of our nation.
The Act of Congress that Mccain’s campaign said got him around this
(5th Congress, March 26th 1790), but found that this act was repealed
by the same Congress, January 29th, 1795, RE-defining such children as
just American citizens (not natural-born, as required for Pres. by the
Constitution), and that this act was re-repealed April 14th, 1802 by
the 6th Congress, keeping the same definition of foreign-born US
citizens.
Others have proposed a new act of Congress to allow McCain the Presidency. Yet, ONLY an amendment to the Constitution would be the legal route to allow someone who was not born in the US to become President.”
Take a deep breath while you read the following – oh feeble one….

I’m disappointed in the comments I’ve read tonight. No matter what you’re personal feelings are about her, to participate in ad hominem attacks against her shows no class. It’s one of the aspects of the republican noise machine that is so distasteful.
As for Cindy McCain pressing the right wing talking point about Michele Obama’s comment, displays a shallowness and lack of reasoning. Michele’s comment is similar to a comment a parent may make to a child after the child had done something impressive or grown-up, like graduating college or high school….”Son, for the first time I’m really proud of you.” I think the comment has been blown way out of proportion and is wearing thin.

Instead of self righteously bringing up her past you need to know the Cindy McCain she is now. Michelle OBama could learn some tact and graciousness from Mrs. McCain and her family. They are very humble people and you wont see this on any liberal media network!
This is an interesting article as not much was known about her. She was on Leno the other night and it was an interesting interview. It turns out that she is a character as she is or has been a race car driver and is also a pilot. She flies John around the country to his rallies. After hearing that about her and reading this I now have a lot of respect for her.
Election 2008: Cindy Hensley McCain has been disparaged as a trophy wife, a Barbie, an heiress with fancy purses, even the Paris Hilton of politics. But there’s more to the picture than meets the eye.
Yes, Mrs. McCain is the perfectly coifed blonde standing dutifully behind the senator during his speeches. And yes, she wears stylish clothing and carries a Prada purse. And it’s true she doesn’t say much. But feminist critics who write her off as a “stand-by-your-man” shrinking violet are selling her short. In many ways, Cindy McCain stacks up sturdier than Hillary Clinton or Michelle Obama. And she’d make a more impressive first lady.
Mrs. McCain: More than meets the eye.
While Obama’s wife has been hating America , complaining about the war and undermining our troops serving in Afghanistan , McCain’s wife has been worrying about her sons who actually are fighting or planning to fight in the war on terror. One, in fact, was until a few months ago deployed in Iraq during some of the worst violence. You don’t hear the McCain’s talk about it, but their 19-year-old Marine, Jimmy, is preparing for his second tour of duty. Their 21-year-old son, Jack, is poised to graduate from Annapolis and also could join the Marines as a second lieutenant. The couple made the decision not to draw attention to their sons out of respect for other families with sons and daughters in harm’s way.
Cindy also says she doesn’t want to risk falling apart on the campaign trail talking about Jimmy who was so young when he enlisted she had to sign consent forms for his medical tests before he could report for duty and potentially upsetting parents of soldiers who are serving or have been killed.
The McCain’s want to make sure their boys get no special treatment. Same goes for their five other children, including a daughter they adopted from Bangladesh . During a visit to Mother Teresa’s orphanage there, Cindy noticed a dying baby. The orphanage could not provide the medical care needed to save her life. So she brought the child home to America for the surgery she desperately needed. The baby is now their healthy, 16-year-old daughter, Bridget.
Though all seven McCain children including two Sen. McCain adopted from his first marriage are supportive of their father, they prefer their privacy to the glare of the campaign trail. Another daughter, Meghan, 23, helps him behind the scenes.
Cindy McCain not only cherishes her children, but also her country, which in an election year filled with America-bashing, is a refreshing novelty. She seethed when she heard Michelle Obama’s unpatriotic remarks that she only recently grew proud of America . “I am very proud of my country,” Mrs. McCain asserted.
She also may be tougher than the other women in the race. While Hillary thinks she’s come under sniper fire on mission trips abroad, Cindy has actually seen violence. She witnessed a boy get blown up by a mine in Kuwait during a trip with an international group that removes land mines from war-torn countries.
Mrs. McCain also is a hands-on philanthropist. She sits on the board of Operation Smile, which arranges for plastic surgeons to fix cleft palates and other birth defects. She also has helped organize relief missions to Micronesia .
During a scuba-diving vacation to the islands, Mrs. McCain took a friend to a local hospital to have a cut treated. She was shocked, and saddened, by what she saw. “They opened the door to the OR, where the supplies were, and there were two cats and a whole bunch of rats climbing out of the sterile supplies,” she recalled. “They had no X-ray machine, no beds. To me, it was devastating because it was a U.S. trust territory.” As soon as she returned home, she arranged for medical equipment and teams of doctors to be sent to treat the island children.
Michelle Obama may contribute to CARE, which fights global poverty and works to empower poor women. Cindy sits on its board.
While the Democrat women talk about helping the poor and needy, Cindy McCain actually rolls up her sleeves and does it. Who’s the out-of-touch elitist?

Michelle should be ashamed of herself as a mother- taking her little girls, from birth, to a church that screams so much hatred! Michelle is a bad example of a mother!
On Jay Leno, Cindy McCain talked about her addiction to pain medication after she had a stroke! She has spoken out on this subject to help others in medical crisis with this issue! She’s a great American!

As a candidate’s wife, she should have shown the understanding that Laura Bush did. Michelle is not a professional politician and at worse mispoke. Anybody with a brain knew what she was trying to say. What bothers me most about Cindy McCain is she needs to admit to herself her true age, and stop trying to look like she’s still a cheerleader in college. The hairdo is much too young, and platinum? Give me a break. It’s so sad to see her trying to look young, obviously to keep her husband from looking at the younger girls. But when you marry someone who had an affair on his disabled wife for six months with you, then you deserve what get. And as far as Obama doing drugs, he was in his teens–Cindy was an adult, and was too old to make such an irresponsible decision. Lots of us have back injuries and pain, but we don’t steal drugs. And why is she providing the life of luxury for a man who called her a c***, in public even? Cindy McCain is definitely not in any way a role model. Michelle on the other hand represents the American story–studied hard, works hard, and takes good care of her family. She is a terrific role model for my daughters. I admire her bravery and grace.

Lemme see: Cindy McCain, who got Johnny Boy to dump his crippled wife and run off with her (How could he resist? She’s 18 years younger than he is.), who is a drug addict/thief, and who doesn’t protest when her husband calls her a trollop and a c**t in public. That this reprehensible specimen of American womanhood would dare to criticize a woman of Michelle Obama’s character and stature is ridiculous and shameful. She disgusts me.

Hey Cindy,
I guess you have also been always proud of your husband who cheated on his first wife with you. (you were his skanky whore), I am sure you were also very proud when he called you a trollop and a c**t.

John Hussein Smith….you say that you only saw 2 minutes of rev wright, obama has worshiped with him for over 20 years. Connect the dots. If you think this is christianity then you need to go back to your marxist roots and see if you can find the real definition of marxism. They don’t believe in God, probably just like you don’t?

Leadership in both parties should take it as a warning sign they have become too polarized addressing the concerns of too few and not really solving the problem of mainstream America. At some point the U.S. will come to the 2% solution, 1% Republicans and 1% Democrats because the majority of the people don’t trust either party. We don’t believe the lies and untested opinions and abilities of Obama, flat out. We don’t believe the ways of the past, by the powerful and the privledged old boys network, in McCain’s and Bush’s corner, is the way to deal with current challenges and those of the future. We don’t want the compromise of Europe’s, socialistic facade and fascism oriented leadership. The mainstream population is exhausted from the greedy, partisanship, elitist attitudes of of today’s U.S. political professionals. Who will really step up and lead this country with tested strength and a new vision?

The fact that the media and now, Cindy McCain, are
making a big deal out of Michelle Obama’s comment just goes to show that they are not familiar with the grammatical use and meaning of the word really.
The word, really, is an adverb that is often used to add strength, seriousness, or sincerity to a statement. For example, when apologizing to another, one could simply say, “I’m sorry”. However, if one were to say, “I’m really sorry”, there is an extra impact added.
Perhaps if Ms. Obama had used the any of the following words such as: extremely, immensely, ever so, thoroughly, or remarkably instead of using really, the imapct would have been different.
What she said was: “For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of my country not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change,”….. this comment, by the way was made in reference to her comments about more folks then ever have been getting excited and involved in the political process.
Many in the media and even Ms. McCain have left off the really to make it sound as though Ms. Obama said: ” For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country….”. Sheesh :-( Quite the spin if you ask me.
Even Laura Bush pointed out that Ms. Obama probably meant “more proud”. Well, obviously First Lady Bush gets it. After all she used to be a teacher.
Now, for all of you who have posted here and dissed the Obama’s, your ignorance of Obama’s ideas and policies, and of Ms. Obama’s ideas is glaringly blatant. Do yourselves and the rest of us a favor, before you post a slam on another, make sure you know what you are talking about. Otherwise you just sound really stupid.

Besides, with the division of powers in the constitution, neither should be able to enslave or torture the populace – even if they wanted to. So don’t worry. Don’t worry, be happy. Also, if you have time, try to start a third party as the two we have now are taking us down the tubes.

Big Joe – I could not agree more with how Mrs. Obama was dressed on “The View”, today. I was embarrassed for her, just as I was for her in that purple atrocity that she wore on the ascendency. No First Lady of this Nation could possibly go out looking like that. Bare arms. Plunging neckline that was not appropriate. Belt in her armpits that amplify very unflattering parts of the body. At least I hope that no First Lady of our Nation would represent us in that ‘fashion’.

Either way he has no ideas, unless you consider taxing and spending as new ideas? They have been tried unsuccessfully many times, over and over.

…I’d like to ask Mrs. Obama if she felt proud of her country the day of – and all days immediately following 9-11, when every house on every street put out their American flag, when donations poured in from coast to coast to help our neighbors in need & in pain in NY, PA, and DC. Was she proud of our country as we rushed to the aide of our fellow Americans, while other Nations editorialized their admiration for Americans’ response to our Nation’s crisis? Was she proud of America when we rushed to the aide of Kuwaiti citizens when Saddam Hussein invaded their country? Was she proud of our country when we raised millions to send food & support to Africa? Was she proud when my husband flew off with his fellow Marines to help rescue and give aide to survivors of the Tsunami in Thailand? America has NEVER said “No” to a country in need. I’ve lived all over the world, and I am extraordinarily proud and grateful of my nationality and my country. I’m sorry, but I was pulling for Mr. Obama until his wife opened her mouth and reaffirmed any doubt I had about her as an American. America has given her a lot – and she’s just now feeling proud to be an American… it was a very profound revelation.

Do any of you have an education (I mean past 5th grade)?
No wonder Americans are the laughing stock of the world. Obama is one of the people. Not like the Repugs who don’t want to get rid of the Enron loophole or dark markets in oil futures. They rig the system to get rich and then wonder why people don’t trust them.

Wow! What a bunch of idiots! When I read this, I get really depressed. What happened to reasonable discourse?
The reality is that we have an extremely impressive woman who put herself through college and law school with hard work and intelligence. She earned great honors, and a good job purely on her own merits despite difficult odds. Michelle Obama is classy, and never says a negative thing about the other woman even though there is ample opportunity.
On the other hand, we have a woman who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, and handed everything without having to work for it. In the process, Cindy McCain has repeatedly shown questionable character. She had an affair with John while he was still married to his first wife. After stealing him, she moved on to steal drugs from her charity, and only escaped being prosecuted because her husband was a Senator. Finally, we find that rather than admitting that she doesn’t cook, she has resorted to stealing recepies from Racheal Ray and Betty Crocker.
None of this should matter – except that Cindy McCain continues to spew the right wing slime that they have manufactured about Michelle Obama. She should know that people living in glass houses shouldn’t throw rocks!
The comparison is easy – Michelle Obama is complete class. Since class can’t be bought, Cindy McCain doesn’t know what it is.

If Cindy McCain becomes the First Lady, it will be embarrassing that she was called such a disgusting name by her husband. And who wants a man as president who would say such a nasy thing to his wife? I would never vote for a man who called his wife a c***.

I know it’s not right and beneath us to go there, but to be fair and balanced, if she wants to call Michelle unpatriotic, we’re allowed to call Cindy McCain a whore, slut, and tramp. After all, McCain did cheat on his wife with Cindy after his wife got hurt in a car accident. Realistically it’s McCain’s fault but to all the marred women out there who got cheated on, I think we can call the person who the guy cheated on a whore.

I think we need it, make sure you waive all college deferments because the volunteer army is tired and we need some new young men to step up and show what it means to be an American. Hopefully his young white supporters will not run to canada like their forefathers, or become domestic terrorist criminals like their heroes who ran from the Vietnam war.

Cindy McCain is an heiress who had an affair with John McCain while he was still married to his first wife, she had her own drug addiction problem and stole drugs from her own charity. This just shows that she is a flawed person and I find it curious that she would appear to be trying to take the moral high ground here.
Personally I have NOT always been blindly proud of my country. Sometimes I have been amazingly proud, but in the last 8 years I have also been very disappointed. Do I love my country? YOU BET. And I still believe, with whatever flaws it may have that it is the greatest country in the world. But I am American, I think its natural that I feel that way.
I think Cindy McCain was silly to jump on what Michelle Obama said – and that by taking the road of moral superiority, she has left herself open to criticism about herself and her own history.
I think this Kate Snow is a typical, unfortunately, news person, always trying to stir the pot and create controversy where there really is none.
Ultimately this is a non-issue.

OBAMA LAUNDRY LIST OF LIES Note: he was MUSLIM, Arabic-(Kenyan), born there and ‘registered in Hawaii after parents flew here, he is a Kenyan,
not American – Reference from his books..
His original name: is Arabic and ‘Baraka’ (from which Barack came) means ‘blessed’ in that language. Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama.
1. Reports emanating from Africa allege his mother was in Kenya with his ARAB Kenyan (NOT Black Kenyan) father – this is clearly shown in Kenyan Govt. Registry documents which list the father as an Arab Kenyan – at a very late term of her pregnancy and was not allowed on a flight to return to HAWAII.
She gave birth to him in Kenya, immediately got on a plane and then registered him as being born in Hawaii.
2. He is NOT an African American at all but an Arab American and cannot claim African minority status, which by US Federal regulations require a person to have 1/8 (one eighth) of the minority blood (12%).
From his mother he has 50% white blood, from his father he has 43.25% Arab BLOOD and from his MATERNAL GRANDMOTHER he manages to hold onto 6.75% African or Black heritage blood.
He has had to duck and weave all his life and use whatever lies he could use to even “pass for Black” and the benefits that this minority status provided. So even this, while understandable – IS A documented LIE.

45.) I Have Always Been Against Iraq – LIAR, you weren’t in office to vote against it AND you have voted to fund it every single time, unlike Kucinich, who seems to be out gutting you Obama. You also seem to be stepping back from your departure date – AGAIN.
46.) I Have Always Supported Universal Health Care – LIAR, your plan leaves us all to pay the 15,000,000 who don’t have to buy it.
47.) I Only Found Out About My Investment Conflicts Via Mail – LIAR, both companies you site as having sent you letters about this conflict have no record of any such letter ever being created or sent.
48.) I Am As Patriotic As Anyone – LIAR, you won’t wear a flag pin and you don’t put your hand over your heart during the Anthem.
49.) My Wife Didn’t Mean What She Said About Pride In Country – LIAR, your wife’s words follow lock-step in the vein of Wright and Farrahkan, in relation to their contempt and hatred of America.
50.) Wal-Mart Is A Company I Wouldn’t Support – LIAR, your wife has received nearly a quater of a million dollars through Treehouse, which is connected to Wal-Mart.
51.) Treehouse Is A Small Company – LIAR, the CEO of Treehouse last year, made more than the CEO of Wal-Mart, according to public records.
52.) University Of Chicago Hospital Pay Is Fair – LIAR, your wife’s pay raise was nearly 150% her already bloated rate and the hospital is a Non-Profit Hospital, which made $100,000,000 in the last 3 years. They overcharge blacks VS whites for services, and overcharge everyone in general by 538%!
53.)I Barely Know Rezko – Only 5 Billed Hours – LIAR, you have known him for 17 years, and decided to do a real estate deal with him during a time when he was proven to be under investigation. Despite this, you divided your property and had them take off $300K before the mortgage problems started. Then Rezko’s wife buys the lot beside it that you can’t afford, saving you $625,000.
54.) My Donations Have Been Checked Thoroughly – LIAR, you only gave back Hsu ($72K) and Rezko (first $66K, then when caught lying $86K, then when caught lying again $150K and now caught lying YET AGAIN OBAMA, it’s $250k) their money when publically called on their involvement in your campaigns.
55.) My Church Is Like Any Other Christian Church – LIAR, your church is so extreme, the pastor who married you, Rev. Wright, just got done blaming the US for 9/11 and named Louis Farrahkan their person of the year.
56.) I Disagree With My Church All The Time – LIAR, you still have yet to repudiate Wright, who married you and your wife, and you still donate large sums of money to assist the church in furthering its message – hatred and revenge. You donated in 2006 alone, $22,500 to the church that you so terribly disagree with. That is nearly $500 PER WEEK – that sure is disagreement, Senator Obama.
57.) I Have Clean Connections Despite Rezko – LIAR, you are not only connected to Exelon and Rezko, you are also connected to Hillary PAC supporter Mr. Hsu, AND an Iraqi Billionaire of ill repute, Nadhmi Auchi, who ripped off people in the Food For Oil, Iraqi deal. Seems Mr. Auchi may have helped Obama buy his million dollar property long before Obama had millions of dollars. Wonder what favors Mr. Auchi expects, when Obama leaves Iraq free to be taken over by special interests such as him.
58.) I never heard sermons like Rev. Wright’s, that have been in videos all day, You Tube – LIAR! 3 days later during your Mea Culpa BS speech you said “Did I hear controversial statements while I sat in that church? Yes I did.”
59.) The Passport Invasion is a conspiracy to find dirt on me! – LIAR. Your own Campaign Foreign Policy Advisor is the CEO of the company that looked into your records. PS – You had them look into yours to hide the fact you looked into Clinton’s and McCain’s more than a year before!
60.) Rev. Meeks has nothing to do with my campaigning – LIAR. Rev. Meeks appeared in ads for your Senate Campaign, donated to you, and helped raise money, then AND NOW. PS – He also seems to despise America.
61.) My wife didn’t mean America is ignorant, she was just using a phrase – LIAR. Again, MicHELLe’s comments perfectly sync with Wright’s, Meeks’, and Farrakhans, both in language, anger, and direction.
62.) I am very Anti-Terror – LIAR. [03/30/2008] One of your good pals is long time radical and terrorist William Ayers, with whom you have been seen in the last 12 months and who has helped the now jailed khalidi, Professor at Columbia who invited Ahmadinejad to the University, to raise money for Palestinian terrorism attacks against Israel. PS – Your church published a pro Hamas Manifesto – guess you weren’t there on THAT Sunday either? How lucky for you.
63.) I have the best plan to cure the Mortgage Crisis – LIAR. [03/30/2008] You and your campaign buddy Penny SubPrime Bank Collapse Prizker have had your little fingers full of subprime cash – Obama has taken $1,180,103 from the top issuers of subprime loans: Obama received $266,907 from Lehman, $5395 from GMAC, $150,850 from Credit Suisse First Boston, $11,250 from Countrywide, $9052 from Washington Mutual, $161,850 from Citigroup, $4600 from CBASS, $170,050 from Morgan Stanley, $1150 from Centex, and last but certainly NOT LEAST – Obama received $351,900 from Goldman Sachs. I am sure that cash all came from folks who knew the subprime loan they had was a dream, eh?
64) I played greater role in crafting liberal stands on gun control, the death penalty and abortion – LIAR – [03/31/2008] It was found that Obama – the day after sitting for the interview – filed an amended version of the questionnaire, which appears to contain Obama’s own handwritten notes added to one answer. Read Obama had greater role on liberal survey
65) I did NOT play the race card: – LIAR – [03/31/2008] Obama was the first to play the race card. According to Phialdelphia Inquirer, Quietly, the storm over the hateful views expressed by Sen. Barack Obama’s pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, has blown away the most insidious myth of the Democratic primary campaign. Obama and his surrogates have charged that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has deliberately and cleverly played the race card in order to label Obama the “black” candidate.
Read more here
66) I did not take money from oil companies: – LIAR – [03/31/2008]
THE FACTS: True enough, Obama does not take money from oil companies. No candidate does. It is illegal for corporations to give money to politicians.
Corporations, however, do have political action committees that collect voluntary donations from employees and then donate them to candidates.
Obama doesn’t take money from PACs. He also doesn’t take money from lobbyists.
But he does accept money from executives and other employees of oil companies and two of his fundraisers are oil company executives. As of Feb. 29, Obama’s presidential campaign had received nearly $214,000 from oil and gas industry employees and their families, according to an analysis by the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics.
Clinton had received nearly $307,000 from industry workers and their families and Republican Sen. John McCain, the likely GOP presidential nominee, received nearly $394,000, according to the center’s totals.
Two of Obama’s fundraisers are Robert Cavnar, the chairman and chief executive of Houston-based Mission Resources Corp., and George Kaiser, the president and CEO of Tulsa-based Kaiser-Francis Oil Co. Source: Associated press via Yahoo News
67) “I don’t think my church is actually particularly controversial,” Obama said at a community meeting in Nelsonville, Ohio, earlier this month. – LIAR – But yesterday, he told a different story. “Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes,” he said in his speech yesterday in Philadelphia.
68) Look at my education record in Illinois – LIAR – In reality, Obama never really championed the local councils. He supported them behind the scenes and only eventually came out publicly on their behalf. When he did weigh in, he came down on the wrong side of the debate-against protecting principals from unwarranted dismissals and in favor of keeping councils independent, no matter what.
In the end, the resolution of the conflict between the two sides didn’t alleviate anyone’s concerns. Instead, it prolonged a turf battle that seems to have dragged down academic progress in the years since.
Much more so than we might believe.
1. Reports emanating from Africa allege his mother was in Kenya with his ARAB Kenyan (NOT Black Kenyan) father – this is clearly shown in Kenyan Govt. Registry documents which list the father as an Arab Kenyan – at a very late term of her pregnancy and was not allowed on a flight to return to HAWAII.

I knew about the scandal. So with your logic, I should have assumed all the priests were in on it too and left my church. I did not turn my back on the church, even if the higher ups were covering for the pedophiles, because my church does good works and though I do not always agree with what my priests says, I will not turn my back on the good works my church offers and the people I worship with.
I do admit that if the media was harassing members, because of me. I would leave the church for their well being.

You know what is better than commenting on this type of story?
Simply reading the comments from the liberals, y’know. They are the most nasty and vicious people aren’t they. They only believe in free thought if you agree with them, otherwise…..oh no!!! they will wish you dead, call you every name in the book, and feel they are ACTUALLY working for the “greater good”.
They are the very same people that my family ran from in Europe.
Ironically, as Western and Eastern Europe are becoming less socialist and more capitalist, the US liberals are pushing this country into socialism. Wow!
How pathetic they are….how sad their legacy.
And we will remember them.
As the losers in American History; the nothings.
Wow- i guess the liberals are right….it does feel good name calling!
It was quick and easy. And I don’t have to really “think” to respond. All I had to do was to “react and not listen”.
wow- how easy to be a lib!!!!!!

Michelle Obama first made that statement WITHOUT the “really” part. Not surprising ABC would quote the softened (i.e. after someone whispered in her ear) version of the line. She also called the United States a “downright mean country” and babbled something about her husband being shot pumping gas because he’s a black man!?

So libre, better to be surrounded by pedophiles, than with a crazy old man who occasionally goes off the deep end? I don’t get what you are getting at. Are we all guilty by association? Should I want to have more pedophiles in my church, because they exist anyway?
Rev Wright took a church in a bad area that had a couple dozen people and he made a 6000 member church as outreach to felons ( who he helped reform), people living with AIDS, feeding the elderly and the poor and you judge him by a couple of crazy rantings? Do any of Rev Wrights good works count? BTW he isn’t running for president, but by your logic JFK shouldn’t have been President either.
Or any Catholic for that matter.

I’ve read so much hate and discontent in this thread and the one thing that affects ALL of you gets wiped out.. Interesting to say the least.

Helping those less fortunate is hate, but voting for a war for politcal purposes is love? Libre you need to accept that Hillary failed to have a plan after Feb 5th and that is not Obama’s fault. Move on.
Hate is spreading lies and that is what you are doing. I went to a black church once with a friend who invited me and I found it to be a very interesting experience. A lot of great singing and happiness, so I am not going to criticize people who go to church looking for comfort. Did you lived during Rev Wright time when blacks had a very hard time? Maybe you should stop bashing a church and its members. The Tuskegee experiments give many blacks a reason to be wary of their government, especially those who grew up during that time. Shame on you libre ….. as Hillary would say.

This woman is proud of nothing other than her ability to be able to run up nearly a quarter of a million dollars of debt on a credit card. And the complete stupidity of not taking care of it before they had to release the records. Is this the responsibility that a first family should be modeling. So please, don’t be calling the Obamas elite and out of touch. America has few things in common with the wasteful greed of this truly bizarre couple. Neither of them are fit to be anywhere near the White House.

libre, I don’t recall any Republican saying Bush gave them “goose bumps” up and down their legs — that was the liberal Chris Matthews speaking about his “chosen one” – anyway – the point I was making is that Democrats will vote for ANYONE as long as they are a Democrat. It wasn”t ’til Hillary threatened their plans that they (liberals) started trashing the Clinton’s and saying the very things that Republicans were saying years ago about the smarmy Clintons. You were in denial then, and you are in denial now, and the day will come when you will be just as sorry as you all (those opposing Hillary) sounded when you shafted her.
Obama keeps talking about “change” – well, if he gets in you’ll see change all right. Aren’t you curious as to what the change might be? I have begun to see hints of the liberal regime already – let’s see, Diane Finstein has already given us a glimpse of the new Soviet Union — oops, I mean Democrat rule, she doesn”t like what she hears on the radio – so out with the radios – she doesn’t like people who make money (oil) (just her husband”s corrupt dealings) so, government takeover, she believes in Lenin”s great idea – take from some – to give to others – THEY decide who that may be – and oh yeah, who cares what the majority think of “foreigh invasion” THEY don’t care what the American people say – they want VOTES!!!!! And Obama agrees with this and God knows what else and there are idiots out there who will actually vote for this. May I beat Obama to the “punch” and say one of his changes may the the name or our country——How does Russ-Am_Exico grab you libre?

My problem with Michelle Obama is that she is a Socialist and clearly has Barack by his little weenie. I wouldn’t get on her so much for the “proud” comment. Anyone can say something that can get twisted in someone’s head.
People bashing Cindy for prior drug use best beware. Because Barack is, by his own admission, the biggest drug user to EVER run for President. And remember this… he is clearly an addict. He has FAILED to quit smoking after a very weak attempt to do so.
Bush got bashed for drinking and using coke, but you effing hypocrites say NOTHING about the extremint muslim drug abuser, Barack Hussein Obama and his communist racist wife

McCain seems unusually subdued. He’s probably drugged up to control his well known outbursts.

Posted by: Huh | June 19, 2008, 6:40 am 6:40 am

lots of daft, pea-sized brainiacs up in this blog.
if obama hates white people then that means he hates his own mother and grandparents who raised him………hmmmmmmmmmmm
if obama is muslim how is it that he attended a church for 20 years straight albeit the controversies behind that church………hmmmmmmmmmmm
come on daft people, i understand y’all blue collar workers so any diploma seems alot to y’all, but special educations degree?!?!?!?! what in gods name is that? and what courses do you study for for that? and does that qualify you to run daddy’s business unless you were born with a platinum spoon in your mouth, you know, born an elite…………hmmmmmmmmmmm
i know the average american doesnt travel much thus increasing your narrow minded tendencies, but i’ll help you out ok, the obamas are like rockstars around the world and the world can’t wait for them to speak at some assembly or meeting or just to see them in person.
what do you care? i know the government keeps bragging about its military might and what not, but it fails to tell you that without certain allies, US of A is nothing but a sitting duck with the ability to defend itself for a few hours, thats why there is this constant chatter about foriegn policy, and who best to deliver this than a family already loved around the world by allies and enemies alike………hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Michelle Obama’s public comments are bad enough but I wonder what kind of remarks she makes in private? I wonder what was said when she, Barack and Jeremiah were talking at home. It wasn’t “God Bless the USA” or “Celebrate Diversity”! It was probably quite the opposite. Cindy has done a lot to help those less fortunate while Michelle has worked only for herself and her husband, who is just as despicable as she is. Cindy McCain is a classy lady, Michelle Obama is not. Period.

Did the interviewer ask Cindy about the love and respect her husband showed her and the women of America, when he called her the “C” word. Why no 24/7 coverage of this from media? Interesting. Oh by the way, why isn’t McCain at least donating the $300,000.00 he rec’d from the rape comment guy in Texas. ‘Rape like Rain when it happens just lay back and enjoy it.’ Since he wants to keep the money, tell America why he should. Would it not be better spent on abused womens shelter or such causes. The real questions in this matter is not what Cindy McCain continues to say, it’s about why the media is not doing their job in questioning her or him about their affairs and issues. Then again the media has it’s own agenda.

Cindi McCain looks much better with real short hair.
This new long haired look makes her look awful. She is too old and her hair is to fine for her to look good.
Why doesn’t someone tell her? She’s a pretty lady, much more attractive and not teeny-bopper looking as she looks now with this weird “do”. Get out the scissors, Cindi.

Reading some of these responses is very troubling to me. Apparently there are many that this election is like “American Idol”
Why not be adult and discuss issues instead of throwing arrows & insults?
You can blog all you want but there are many thinking Americans who will consider the issues and will not entrust our Country to the likes of “unknowns”! If the Obama people want him to get elected, they better come up with something better than “Cindy is blah, blah, blah”

I’m speaking as a white woman having worked with the underpriviledged for twenty years.
The truth is as a white woman you can’t experience the pride that an african american will in seeing an articulate well respected individual who has now been presumed to be her husband’s opponant. Michelle has because the pride is overwhelming to see your husband take that lead.
The press should stop stoking the fire of issues that don’t matter. Cindy, answers such as yours will turn more republican woman away from your husband as if it hasn’t already and stoke the fires of racism.

Michelle Obama is truly an angry black woman and she can try to hide that as much as she wants. She is what she has been and not what she wants people to believe she is.
That is how Senator Obama has become the Democrat nominee … by saying what naive liberal Democrats want to hear. (Blacks don’t even know or care what he says…he looks like them.) He said he would have our troops out of Iraq in 16 months. Now according to the Wash Post, the Iraq minister has said Obama has assured him that his position on withdrawal of troops will be about the same as McCain’s. What? This was his entire theme for the first 18 months of his campaign. Also, the Canadian government has expressed congratulations to Obama on his “new” position on NAFTA, that he would not necessarily change any part of it.
This man and his wife are total liars, who say whatever is politically expedient and only the extremely naive have been hoodwinked by him and his wife and they should be totally embarrassed. And their lies are the basis of the campaign….not about something that may have happened 10 years ago. This shows either this man is the most naive politician in the world or he’s the biggest liar.

Cindy should love this country, as filthy rich as it’s made her. She and her husband both make me sick to my stomach. It should be illegal for there to be rich bitches such as her when some people don’t even have homes. She’s the problem with this country; not Michelle Obama.

She should be proud of her country. She was born into amazing wealth, she stole a woman’s husband after his wife waited years for him to return from war, she has enough money to keep her face tighter than a drum, she never had to deal with any retribution for being a dope thief & addict, and she glides by without having to share records of her wealth but her husband gets to use her corporate jets.

=============================
Oh, so McCain should be responsible for what a fundraiser said decades ago but Michelle and Barack don’t have to be responsible for what they said a few months ago? Actually, what most of you naive people don’t realize is at the time that comment about lay back and enjoy it was made, that was the advice that was passed out by law enforcement. They encouraged women not to fight because they thought the women would be killed in addition to being raped. At that particular time, women had no rights when it came to sexual harrassment or rape. Law enforcement has just recently recommended women fight as hard as they can. You uninformed Obama supporters know nothing about anything. You’re just as uninformed as your superficial hero.

Let me get this straight. You bloggers are upset with Cindy because her family worked hard and built a business. They passed this on to their child and she double the revenues through hard work and that is bad but it is okay to suck off the system and get a free education and then complain about whitey whose taxes paid for that education???? sounds like racist jealousy that is has been taught in their churches for years. I was told to say thanks for what you were given not give me more i deserve it because you have more and worked harder than my family. they are communist and any hard working person does not want to hand over their profits to someone that does not want to work. Obama would be a disaster even worst than jimmy carter. Read some history, oh yeah the liberals won’t put what really happened in the history books. maybe it would be best if you went to the library and read papers from the days jimmy was in office, if you can read.

From the comments of some, I guess John McCain will have to do what Obama is doing and create a Thought-Police web-page. You can’t talk about Michelle, but feel free to trash Cindy McCain…is that what passes for Class, or Change, in the Liberal mindset? Let me see… recipe plagiarism…. not proud of my Country…..hard choice as to which deserves criticism.
Re: recipes, I gave my children many recipes to use when they left home…I didn’t create most of the recipes…when asked, .they simply say “they’re my Mom’s…..guess they had better watch out for the Recipe-Police as well as the Thought-Police.

Those poor women have not done anything to deserve such horrible comments ,especially about their appearances. Grow up America and be proud that you are where you are right now in terms of the calibre of your candidates. We in South Africa are stuck with the candidate foisted on us by the ruling ANC party, and have no choice whatsoever in who becomes our President next year!

After 8 years of Laura Bush, neither Cindy nor Michelle measures up. When Dubya said he’d married up, he wasn’t kidding. Cindy looks cheap to me. Her hair is a bit too bleached. Shouldn’t she opt for a more natural look? Michelle is making the talk-show rounds, trying to live down her well-earned reputation as an angry black woman. Her anger won’t wash, however. Who among us can boast of the great education and great salary that Michelle has under her belt? Not many, regardless of color. She should never have made the statements she’s made. Sometimes our mouths overload other parts of our anatomy, especially when you’re standing before a bunch of fawning airheads who applaud every syllable coming out of your mouth.
Note that Obama’s handlers refused to allow two Muslim women to sit behind him at a rally. Why not? Think about it. He’s still trying to shed the Muslim taint. We need to be careful about him, I believe.

Hey tjordan I need to correct you. Yes you are right he is a first term Senator, but he did serve 3 years in the Senate, snd he served 8 years as a state senator in Illinois, that does count for something. I think he can be President…why he ran the Harvard Law Review…that is close to the U.S. Government. Come on dude great speakers mean great leaders! Senators that have very rarely voted in the Senate make great scientists of the American legislative process. Furthermore a man that needs to be taught how to salute a serviceman, who protects him, qualify for Commander-in-Chief. Everything is cool, we’re in good hands, at least we’ll have a good speaker on the floor of the U.N. Has he ever been there? Doesn’t matter, he lived in Indonesia as a young child…he is fully qualified to be the leader of the free world. Oh yeah, he is for religous freedom….as long as he decides what religion is free. We will be in good hands tjordan…DON’T YOU WORRY! CHANGE, CHANGE, CHANGE…change what?

Cindy Mccain is a drug addict who stole drugs from her foundation that were intended to help children.
she has no moral high ground.
The media consistently refuses to call her on her negatives while consistently asking michelle each time she appears in public about her “patriotism.”

Posted by: FLvoter | June 19, 2008, 8:37 am 8:37 am

The problem is McCain’s health. We are talking some serious slow-down. The 10 second photo-ops of him traipsing across a tarmac are hardly gimmick enough to cover up some serious health issues. The list is troubling:
http://network.nationalpost.com/np/blogs/francis/archive/2008/05/29/mccain-s-health-is-terrible.aspx
– We all know that he has Stage II melanoma which means that he must undergo extensive tests every month. There must be blood tests, catscans and his body has to be carefully examined from top to bottom. He is one lesion away from Stage III which is fatal at his age.
– He has serious arthritis and may need a joint replacement. Which joints are involved here were unspecified.
– He recently had benign polyps removed from his colon.
– He has dizzy spells.
– He was treated for an enlarged prostate.
– He underwent cataract surgery.
– He suffers from vertigo.
– He takes medication for high cholesterol.
– He had early stage squamous cell cancer this year.

From Wikipedia:
McCain underwent treatment for his injuries, including months of grueling physical therapy,[56] and attended the National War College in Fort McNair in Washington, D.C. during 1973–1974.[16][55] Having been rehabilitated, by late 1974, McCain had his flight status reinstated,[55] and in 1976 he became commanding officer of a training squadron stationed in Florida.[55][57] He turned around an undistinguished unit and won the squadron its first Meritorious Unit Commendation.[56] During this period in Florida, McCain had extramarital affairs, the McCains’ marriage began to falter, and he would later accept blame.[58][59]
McCain served as the Navy’s liaison to the U.S. Senate, beginning in 1977.[60] He would later say it represented “[my] real entry into the world of politics and the beginning of my second career as a public servant”.[55] McCain played a key behind-the-scenes role in gaining congressional financing for a new supercarrier against the wishes of the Carter administration.[56][61]
In April of 1979,[56] McCain met and began a courtship with Cindy Lou Hensley, a teacher from Phoenix, Arizona, the only child of the founder of Hensley & Co.[59] He and his wife Carol then permanently separated later in 1979,[56][62][63] and she accepted a divorce in February of 1980,[56] effective in April of 1980.[20] The settlement included two houses, and financial support for her ongoing medical treatments for injuries resulting from the 1969 car accident; they would remain on good terms.[59] McCain and Hensley were married on May 17, 1980.[12] John and Cindy McCain entered into a prenuptial agreement that keeps most of her family’s assets under her name;[64] they would always keep their finances apart and file separate income tax returns.[64]

The only reason Obama went to Harvard is because colleges, like government have their quotas. And at that time, ANY institution would have hired or enrolled a black female – even better if she had slanted eyes and spoke Spanish. She is no brighter than anyone else. She got where she is BECAUSE she is black; not in spite of.

Since the right is always making character an issue, I’d say that stealing drugs and using her husband’s influence to avoid jail is very indicative of both John and Cindy McCain’s character.

Yeah, I guess doing drugs, having an affair with a married man and stealing from your own charity is really classy. But then again that sounds like most white people and their teenage sons and daughters. All she needed to do to top her classiness off was be a drunk and star in a girls gone wild video and flash her breast.

If I read the article correctly, it wasn’t like Cindy went on the show for the purpose of calling out Michelle. The interviewer asked her about those things…I think her only error that’s got the Obamatons’ panties in a bunch was that she didn’t just say “I’d rather not comment on Mrs. Obama” instead she took the bate hook line and sinker. Now we’ve got some “news” to report once again a non-story set up by the media to report an artifical conflict.

The Sky is falling! The Sky is falling! You would think by some of the vicious attacks here that:
A. Barack Obama is a __________ (Fill in your conspiracy theory here.)
B. John McCain is a ____________ (Fill in your insult here.)
C. The same goes for both spouses.
I would hope that we could disagree on the issues of our time and accept that no one person is ever going to be perfect in running for President and that no one who has put their life out on the line to be picked over by every chicken little in the country could possibly be as bad as portrayed by the opposition.
So…….. If you like Obama, great. I am sure that you have better reasons for it than the fact that he is ____________ (Put your most demeaning adjective here). If you like McCain fine.
Can we get back to the issues that affect us all and stop with the sky if falling scare routine.
You may now resume your spreading of rumor, innuendo and lies.

You guys are trashing Cindy and she is just a wife of a candidate. How about Obama’s drug use. Obama being a racist (going to preachers who trash whites for 20 years). How about Obama being friends with Ayers ( a known terrorist that says he didn’t do enough when he bombed those buildings in America. Apparently he is upset he didn’t murder anyone). Give me a break! Trash Cindy but give Obama a free ride. He is a racist pig!

America does not need this wanna-be QUEEN in the White House.
She KNOWS Mrs. Obama meant she had never been prouder – and Mrs. Obama has clarified that. Cindy McCain would be another condescending Nancy Reagan – except this time a TRUST FUND SNOB.

Who really cares what either of these two classless potential first ladies think? It’s about what their husbands plan on doing for this country that matters. The two choices are weak, but voting for big government would be weaker. McCain unfortunateky is the lesser of the two weak candidates, so my vote goes to him.

It’s wonderful that Cindy McCain has ALWAYS felt proud of her country. I guess that comes from being enormously wealthy…and white. Should we be proud of our country when the government shoots protesters, occupies country’s or lies about WMDs?

I don’t think it is a smart move for Cindy to get into the political fray; she would be better off focusing on reaching out to women and selling her husband to them. Let the campaigns and the 527′s hammer away at the Obamas’ radical roots and why they would be dangerous for America.

Posted by: Bill | June 19, 2008, 9:25 am 9:25 am

How did John McCain honor the country? Didn’t he serve in the military? You can not honor your country more than serving in the military. As for affairs, Bill Clinton supporters did not have a problem with it when he was actually in the oval office.
I say forget both McCain and Obama because if our country wants real change, it is up to us “the people”. It is time that politicians learn they work for us. I wish I had a plan for how we can take back our country from small interest groups and corruption. Any ideas?

You patriots get pissed when we talk about cigar smokers of the late 1990′s but want to judge “real” hero’s from the 60′s and 70′s. I don’t think that a POW who had issues, which so many of the POW’s had with their spouses and the seperation that it caused, should be judged in 2008, more than 30 years after their release, for how they reacted.

I love it when stupid people try to make a point here is just a couple:
heresy:”beck and call” – It should be “beckoned call”
Dem in Chicago: “Michelle Obama = classy Cindy McCain = classless” – How does one back up that argument?
Leslie: “Cindy McCain has no room to talk about anybody considering her past. ” – What’s her past? Did she call someone “whitey”? Mr. and Mrs. Obama are both racists. Mr. Obama came to Christianity at church which has been shown to have not only a Reverend that fully admits to hating white people (or Caucasian American of European and Scandinavian decent, as I prefer to be labeled.), but also a White Reverend that has given recent sermons on hating White people. The second does not even like himself. They have not formally renounced their membership at that church. How does the old saying go? “If looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is probably a duck.” Mr. Obama was raised Muslim, in countries were Muslims are taught to hate everyone but Muslims. Sounds like these people have spent their entire lives being taught to hate white people. Cindy McCain spent 5 years faithfully waiting for her man to come home from a foreign land, where he was being held as a prisoner of war. Sounds like a fairly committed wife of a very proud American to me. I have to comment that your comment offends me, and my fellow combat veterans, greatly. Leslie, I would like to remind you that you have the right to move to Canada, Mexico, or Iran for that matter.
Eric: “That might explain why she always comes across as some white trash, fixed on Botox, with mindless eyes” – let us discuss how white Trash it is to start a sentence with the word “That”. “This” would have been a better choice. I will say that Cindy is a little creepy looking, but she probably earned every one of those worry lines.
So many idiots, so little time.

Not that it matters but they are a perfect example of the stupidity of current time. White can do no good and Black is innocent always.

Cindy McCain makes herself look petty and taudry when she attacks Michelle Obama in this way. Laura Bush made herself look like the classy woman she is when she defended Michelle. Cindy knows as well as Laura does that Michelle was talking about the political process in America being energized with millions of people becoming involved this year. Her husband’s campaign is so desperate that they have to resort to junk like this. Pretty pitiful.

“Who in their right mind would vote for a Muslim for president?” Isn’t this the same question that gets asked every time someone “new” tries to run for president? Just fill in the blank. Instead of Muslim, plug in Catholic, Mormon, Atheist, whatever. A person need not have an “acceptable” religion to run for president. We have a separation of church and state in this country. You could also ask the same question and plug in “woman”.

In 2008 we care about a speaking voice and a wife that won’t matter except in how she reads a book to kindegartners. The Founders are rolling in their graves. Glad to see that popularity politics are alive and well in these troubling times, when leadership and experience matter.

While Obama’s wife has been hating America, complaining about the war and undermining our troops serving in Afghanistan , McCain’s wife has been worrying about her sons who actually are fighting or planning to fight in the war on terror. One, in fact, was until a few months ago deployed in Iraq during some of the worst violence.
Mrs. McCain also is a hands on philanthropist. She sits on the board of Operation Smile, which arranges for plastic surgeons to fix cleft palates and other birth defects. She also has helped organize relief missions to Micronesia.
You don’t hear the McCains talk about it, but their 19-year-old Marine, Jimmy, is preparing for his second tour of duty. Their 21-year-old son, Jack, is poised to graduate from Annapolis and also could join the Marines as a second lieutenant. The couple made the decision not to draw attention to their sons out of respect for other families with sons and daughters in harm’s way.
Cindy also says she doesn’t want to risk falling apart on the campaign trail talking about Jimmy who was so young when he enlisted she had to sign consent forms for his medical tests before he could report for duty and potentially upsetting parents of soldiers who are serving or have been killed.
The McCains want to make sure their boys get no special treatment. Same goes for their five other children, including a daughter they adopted from Bangladesh .
During a visit to Mother Teresa’s orphanage there, Cindy noticed a dying baby. The orphanage could not provide the medical care needed to save her life. So she brought the child home to America for the surgery she desperately needed. The baby is now their healthy, 16-year-old daughter, Bridget.
Though all seven McCain children including two Sen. McCain adopted from his first marriage are supportive of their father, they prefer their privacy to the glare of the campaign trail. Another daughter, Meghan, 23, helps him behind the scenes.
Michelle Obama may contribute to CARE, which fights global poverty and works to empower poor women. Cindy sits on its board.
While the Democrat women talk about helping the poor and needy, Cindy McCain actually rolls up her sleeves and does it. Who’s the out-of-touch elitist?

Read the previous comments…First Lady’s don’t matter! Presidents with experience matter! First Lady’s don’t stop people from killing American’s. President’s keep us safe. First Lady’s read books to kids and hold hands with their man, they don’t matter. First Lady’s are not Constitutional officers, President’s are…read the Constitution and figure out who you think can uphold our founding document. O’Bama taught Constitutional Law, I think. I don’t know he had time to teach when he was busy running the Law Review and figuring out how he could be President. That would be an interesting inquiry. Think about your country first and your party second. Your kid’s matter when you are feet up in the grave, the party will always be there, but your Nation may be completely different unless you vote for a leader and not a politician. Wake up JC and smell the beer and not t he Kool Aid!!!!

IMO I think that the name calling is useless. They are both educated women that came up in different cultures in the same America. I am sure that they are both proud to be Americans as well as proud of America. Let the men in this fight fight and their women take the example of a true “classy” First Lady Laura Bush. Love and support your man, but be a “Lady”.
I am a Regan Conservative, I am voting with those values in mind for the candidate I choose. We should all take a lesson from what our country has experienced in the past. Not the past 8 or 12 years but 20, 40 and further.
Something to think about when voting…
HOW LONG DO WE HAVE?
This is the most interesting thing I’ve read in a long time. The sad thing, you can see it coming.
I have heard about this democracy countdown. It is interesting to see it in print. God help us, not that we deserve it.
How Long Do We Have?
About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier:
“A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government.”
“A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.”
“From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.”
“The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years”
“During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:
1. From bondage to spiritual faith;
2. From spiritual faith to great courage;
3. From courage to liberty;
4. From liberty to abundance;
5. From abundance to complacency;
6. From complacency to apathy;
7. From apathy to dependence;
8. From dependence back into bondage”
Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential el ection:
Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29
Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: “In aggregate, the map of the territory Republican won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare…” Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the “complacency and apathy” phase of P rofessor Tyler’s definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation’s population already having reached the “governmental dependency” phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegal’s and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in less than five years.

Reminder again to some here picking on Barack and maybe Michelle indulging in drug use (like Bill Clinton, but also Clarence Thomas, Newt Gingrich, and George Bush): Cindy McCain didn’t just get addicted to drugs after real pain, she *stole* them from her own charity. Indulging on your own is one thing, stealing drugs is another.
Furthermore, she dallied with John while he was still married to the first wife he dumped (similar to what Bob Dole did!) The first wife, Carol Shepp, was rendered not so pretty anymore (and crippled) from an accident. Then there’s Laura Bush, who killed her own then-boyfriend in an accident in her youth. And don’t forget Rudi (in a class of his own) and Newt Gingrich, indulgers in adultery. Rudi even used taxpayer funds to cart his mistress from tryst to tryst. How do you conservatives like *that* expenditure of “our money.”?!
See www dot washingtonmonthly.com/features/2006/0607 dot benen dot html for more.
What’s with these Republican politicians and their wives, anyway? So much for “conservative family values”!

Some of the comments people have made here are quite remarkable.
FoxyBrown… are you, yourself, a crack head?! I mean, you keep referencing “Barky” and the “O-Clones” and calling readers and posters here “Bots.” What’s that all about? I’m thinking that you might be out of your mind – or on crack yourself.
You ask: “Who wants a crack head for President?” referring apparently to Obama, though you never say his name. Your reason is because he did drugs years ago. Oh my.
I ask you: if you watch two public speeches, one by John McCain with his wooden delivery, goofy smiles, and clumsy stumbling speech; and one by Barack Obama, with his perfect delivery, appropriate and moving expressions, and seemingly perfectly rehearsed or extemporaneously delivered speech, with only the rarest of mistakes – which of the two presidential candidates ACTUALLY looks more like they might have smoked crack? And please don’t start getting racist on me… be honest to me and yourself.
It’s stupid to call Obama a crack head, because the frazzled, rough, unsmooth, drug-riddled and drug-affected family is… wait for it… the McCains!
The Obamas are clean and completely have their ship together; no crack heads there. You, FoxyBrown, unfortunately, may want to check into Rehab.
Oh… and the comment by Jerry Wright (is that Jeremiah Wright? Seriously.):
“BTW, Mrs Obama really does resemble a pig.”
Okay… now when I look at Michelle Obama, I see a very together, tall, attractive, forty-something, black woman. She doesn’t have a turned-up pig-like nose, and she certainly doesn’t have pink skin, so, obviously you are seeing what YOU want to see – and, yes, as Whataplace puts it, you are, more likely, the REAL pig, for your insulting and ungracious comment.
Cindy McCain on the other hand… hmmm… I wasn’t thinking Stepford Wife so much as… maybe the Cryptkeeper from Tales from the Crypt. The skin stretched tightly over her skull and those pale, eerie eyes really pull that off, I think. I believe that she looked a little better, a few years ago, with a little meat on her bones. She looks a little malnourished and taught these days. Nevertheless, she is prettier, by far, with her mouth shut. Pure, ghastly venom and cackles fly out of that trap. No thanks. Michelle Obama wins this contest – hands down – and Amen!

Senator Obama has stated in his spesches that one of his first acts is to investigate why their are so many blacks in prison. SUGGEST he read the morning newspaper for his first clue. All we’re going to hear out of President Obama is what he can do for the blacks. Which of course, equates to what he can take away from the hard working whites.

It just goes to show that even a crack addict can read a speech from cue cards. McCain's speeches are usually from the gut and rarely rehearsed. And beside that, McCain looks REAL…Obama looks well, teflon.
And the only reason you look at a beautiful white Queen like Cindy McCain and see the Crypt Keeper is because your taste in women is limited to gay sex with transexuals probably in a some internet porno.

ChrisClark: I’m sympathetic to your claim that First Ladies don’t matter, but do at least consdier what Big Jamus wrote just above you at 10:26. He gives a good argument for why they *do* matter. As for Ted Kennedy, sure he did wrong by not reporting right away. But the death itself was an accident not a willful act like stealing or adultery. And “delay” is a bit nebulous, just what is the proper cut-off time? But let’s appreciate, politicians aren’t that great in general and hashing over which party is worse isn’t a big accomplishment. We do need real solutions, now more than ever.

Cindy McCAin is a very classy lady. She puts her momey where her mouth is. How many of you out there talking about how awful she is have adopted a daughter with special medical needs from a different race. How many of you belong to an organization which clears land mines and another which provides surgeries for children with facial deformities?

His family doesn’t matter. They could be become crack smoking whores after inaguration day and there wouldn’t be a damn thing America could do about it.”<
Your inexperience with married life is too painfully obvious.
Your point about the President's wife becoming a crack smoking whore is interesting. How do you think that might affect the Pres's performance? I guess it depends if you prefer to live with crack smoking whores or not. Is that what you're trying to say about Obama?

The Ghetto in Michelle has already come out and is being covered up in the same manner as during the Hillary run. The press was constantly talking down about Hillary’s appearance but never talked about Michelle coke stand she always carries behind her. Is she, like her husband another untouchable. Come on America wake up. We are off track. I think an American Hero with years of experience, not a new comer from the Wright Church, will do the job necessary to get this country back on track. Obama and Michelle, the pretenders, need to return to their home place. Leave Cindy McCain alone, she is a breath of fresh air. A real person, not a pretender.

She is a thug who steal cookies and drugs. She has no room to talk. She can be proud that she was not sent to jail because she is above the law, is that what make her proud all the time, or is it the millions she inherited, that’s right. She is no self made millionaire, she inherited her fathers wealth never had to live in the real world. She should stick to what she knows, beer and stealing.

And Cindy admits that during their extra-affair she lied to make herself seem older than her 25 years and McCain lied to make himself seem younger than his 43 years until McCain’s divorce went through and they went to get married 3 weeks later – they found out each other’s true age because of the marriage license application!

Neil B.
I respect an intellectual reply, but any citizen would expect his/her leader to be honest of any infraction of the law, regardless of reprecussion. Ted Kennedy ran from the law and responsibility, and he will pay for that one day (God judges). Time? I don’t know the statue of limitations of vehicular homicide or manslaughter in Massachusetts for a non-Kennedy, but in many states he should be in an orange jump suit. The Kennedy Family is a modern American icon. The family is proof that bootlegging pays. JFK is an American hero (PT-109) and a great patriot, his brother RFK may have been a great President, but TK is a coward who did not take responsibilty for his actions regardless of reprecussions.
I will not blither on our nations apathy of the Kennedy’s and the law, that will be judged later in our Nation’s national discourse and acceptance of history, well after we are pushing up daisy’s.
Let’s get back to national pride and accountability. Let’s be responsible and judge our leaders and potential leaders on presumed actions and not party assumptions.

ABC, faithfully parroting the Obama party line as always.
‘In subsequent interviews, Obama attempted to clarify her remarks — something she did again in her appearance as a co-host of ABC’s daytime talk show “The View”.’
Backtracking and revising history and pretending she meant one thing when her words obviously conveyed another idea is not the same as clarifying. ABC is in the communications business. Bret Hovell et al understand that perfectly well.
There was nothing at all “unclear” about Michelle Obama’s original statement, so clarification is not what’s in order. And Michelle Obama herself is not an uneducated person or an inexperienced speaker, far from it. This is a Harvard grad who has lengthy professional experience. She’s used to choosing her words to convey her actual meaning.
Michelle Obama merely told the truth about never being proud of her country in her previous 44 years. It was a very helpful truth to be telling when she was telling it to fellow America-haters on the far left of her party. Now that we’re into the general election cycle, the Obamas are cynically pretending to be regular American folks.
But there’s nothing at all unclear about this process of naked ambition and Orwellian revision of history, so please, ABC, let’s have no more bleating about clarification.

By the way, your message seems to be misspelling. Spell check is a feature you can get with most word processors. You should not “rage” while trying to sound intelligent. This is a perfect example of hate being ignorant. I would go further into the point about liberal rags, but you wouldn’t get it.

The only way that McCain can win this election is to paint a potrait of Obama as a secret America Hating far left Muslim that will surrender to the terrorists on day one.
That may sound absurd but there’s already a siezeable portion of the electorate that thinks he’s a Muslim and believe he agrees 100% with Wright ( I’m still amazed by THAT contradiction). Appealing to the worst in Americans, playing on their fear of the unknown is the only way for republicans to win. Its worked for the republicans since Nixon in ’68. So long as teh republicans field a live candidate, they can count on voters that only exposure to politics are bumper stickers.
It seems that these tactics did not work in 2006 and McCain is such a horrible candidate that even going to smear and fear route may not work.

WHERE IS Obama’s BIRTH CERTIFICATE? We need proof that he is who he says he is. And was he a bastard child. Why is it that he wants to take the money from the working whites and distribute it to the poor non-working blacks: and not to the poor whites, browns, or yellows, reds or others: only blacks. This sounds like his African-Chicagoian spiritual experience. Student of Wright. That is just disgusting. And why is MSN,NBC, and CNN beating on Charlie Gibson and George Stephanopoulos?

Cindy has always been involved in her Dad’s beer business. I know because I have worked their over twenty years. The people at Hensley’s Co are treated like dogs. We must work when we are sick, we are forced to “volunteer” for weekend duty and special events at no pay. If people take a lunch or a break during the day, they are threatened with their job or position. In twenty years I have never taken a break during work, never ever! They have good insurance benefits, so I am unable to change jobs. The pay sucks when you consider the number of hours we must work, but I have a wife and kids.
I wish a Bud truck would run over my head and put me out of my misery.
For many years Cindy owned the trucks, and her Dad leased them from her. It is a company called Western Leasing. Someone needs to ask around and see how her employees enjoy working for her. Most would be scared to death to admit the truth.

Of course John McCain’s concubine/whore has always been proud to be an American. She hasn’t worked a day in her life. And I guess when you’re a drug addict you feel NO pain. Why are we referring to Cindy as John’s wife. In the eyes of our Lord Cathy is still his wife. Marriage is between a man and a woman … as many times as that man wants to marry!

If Cindy McCain had any remaining functional brain cells she would have said, “Kate, that is the dumbest question ever. Why should I be insulted by something that has nothing to do with me?”
But no, both Kate Snow and Cindy McCain opted for the patented ABC “let’s talk about dumb sh*t” interview style demonstrated to perfection by George Stephanopoulos and Charlie Gibson.
Simply Assinine Reporting on a non-story.

Michelle’s proud and Cindy’s proud are not the same and should not have to be. Who are you to question how proud Michelle is. She was not born with that silver spoon, so her views would be a little different. Cindy on the other hand never had to do anything but claim her father’s wealth. She did not learn family value, that is for sure, if she did she would not have been rolling in the hay with a married man. She is the last person to open her mouth and speak a negative word about Michelle. She is the drug addict and the homewrecker. She had better step off Michelle, or she will become fair game, and McCain does not need that type of distraction. He has enough to deal with. McCain is not the idea family man BARRACK HUSSEIN OBAMA is, yes I said it that is his name and he should be proud, who are you people that everything has to fit into white America. HUSSEIN THAT MEANS HANDSOME ONE. YOU SEAN HANNITY AND RUSH RACE BAITERS. This is not your America this is God’s America, so get over your selves. Michelle is SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL.

You may get your coveted $500 reparations check at long last, which you’ll probably blow on new sneakers instead of spelling and grammar lessons, but in the long run, things will stay the same or get worse because the Dems you’ve put your hopes and trust in for the last 50 years want to keep it that way. If you’re doing well in life, why would you possibly need to vote for them? And listen up…you can’t blame white people for everything. Ever heard of personal responsibility? If the only way you can aquire anything is by suckling the giant teat of the federal government, how much empowerment and pride does that give you? Pathetic! LOL!

If people take a lunch or a break during the day, they are threatened with their job or position. In twenty years I have never taken a break during work, never ever!”
Ok, why did you stay there 20 years? Oh wait there’s more…
“They have good insurance benefits, so I am unable to change jobs. The pay sucks when you consider the number of hours we must work, but I have a wife and kids.
I wish a Bud truck would run over my head and put me out of my misery.”
Wow! Where to go with this one..Ok, Sounds like you worked there, or are you still, for the insurance and to provide for your family. Actually I have to praise you for being concerned about your families well being. However, if you were there for 20 years and never once tried to get an education, or do anything to better yourself enough to be able to get a better job. What am I supposed to feel sorry for you? Oh, there’s more…
“Most would be scared to death to admit the truth.”
Now, are you accusing someone of running a company that would actually kill to keep the real working conditions secret? this would sound a lot like you are saying that Cindy McCain is running an organized crime syndicate. You would need some fairly well documented evidence to substantiate that claim. For instance, pictures of the crime having been committed at least once. We generally refer to this as proof. You are aware that there are still laws against such an accusation without proof. Some one saying that they worked there 20 years and feared for their life because of the working conditions is very close to the edge. So I have to ask, “Were the working conditions very poor, in your opinion, or were you every threatened? Or worse yet, did you ever witness the crimes you mention?. Is it just plain being a disgruntled employee.?”

His actions have built his character. Cracks me up how every four years the Republicans adjust what is important to them according to the candidate that is running. Four years ago, the Repubs chastized John Kerry and he was a military man. George W. was not. Eight years ago, it was family values and how George W. had so many of them! Now John McCain is the “one” because he is a military man but has no “family values”. Crazy…

3) Her view being an African American coming from a hard working middle class family is WAY different than that of an heiress who never had to work and had an AFFAIR WITH A MARRIED JOHN MCCAIN before reeling him in

Mrs McCain is a mean looking woman who should keep her mouth shut if she can’t say anything positive about Mrs Obama. Senator Obama’s wife has not attacked Cindy McCain, so what gives? Furthermore, Mrs Obama should be an inspiration to any woman striving for success, who isn’t dependent upon inherited wealth.

Will the Presidents Insurance pay for all of Cindy McCains Plastic Surgery? Or will the taxpayers pay for it??
Also, those of you who think Mrs Obama is not proud, should re-listen to the tape. She says, “she is REALLY proud of her country for the first time.” That is something to look at and think about. Many stories are taken out of context, or words left out, which make something out of nothing.

We can sit back and take pot shots at both of them, but which one is more qualified to lead this country for the next 4 years? Make any comment you want, but I’m going with the man that has actually accomplished something during his tenure working for this country, not someone who hasn’t done anything but wants to be the boss.

Posted by: Born-In-This-Country | June 19, 2008, 11:54 am 11:54 am

Vince, you lost me at “1)I agree with Michelle Obama”
The rest was just nonsense. Both Obama are masters of “word play”. Why do you think they are in politics? Have you ever seen an honest politician. I’m pretty good friends with a guy who is the Mayor of a city. I once seen him not “politicing” about 3 am sitting by a pool drinking a beer with me. That is in the 6 years I’ve know him.
The real bottom line is this, The campaigns SHOULD be designed like a job interview, to see who is more qualified to do the job and to get the job done in the best interest of the company (Namely the American people. “For the People”. Remember?), right? Unfortunately, It has become a mud slinging contest, and has been as long as I remember. The only was for any of us to make a change is to study the information, using and medium available, and make our choice based on what we consider fact. I fully admit that there has not been a President, in the last few decades that has been able to fully complete the job for many different reasons. We should not spend as much time villifying the last guy. We should spend as much time as possible make a good choice for the future.

Cindy, Cindy, Cindy,
I have not once used the Republican or Democrate term. The party of a canidate does not matter. The issues matter and the way they will guide our country and uphold the Constitution matter.
As a 23 year veteran who remains on active duty in the U.S. Air Force, let me clarify what you assume to be my chastizing of past canidates.
LET’S HONOR:
John Kerry – Silver Star, Bronze Star, and 3 purple hearts
George W. Bush – Veteran in service of his country regardless of action, he did uphold an oath, and received a Presidential commission
John McCain – Veteran and POW earned the Silver Star, a Legion of Merit for Valor, a Distinguished Flying Cross, three Bronze Stars, two Commendation medals plus two Purple Hearts and a dozen service medals
His father and grand-father were Navy Admirals and wartime hero’s protecting our Constitution in service to their Country.
Now let’s talk about his family man status. He has two son’s in the military. One is a midshipman at the Naval Acamdemy and one is an enlisted Marine that has served in our present struggle against Islamic facism. He also has a daughter and adopted a Bangheldeshi child.
LET’S REMIND READERS:
Barack Obama – No national service, but he appoints prospective officers to our nations military academies as a US Senator.
Questions?
I would really like to hear back from you and substantiate or add to my facts. I’m sure you won’t because you are an uneducated loon!
Why don’t do some research before flying off the handle honey.

Posted by: ChrisClark | June 19, 2008, 12:00 pm 12:00 pm

I believe Cindy McCain was answering a question posed to her by interviewers rearding Mrs. Obama and her answer was bland. That’s not exactly an attack. Both these women can handle themselves just fine. If they didn’t enjoy the political combat they would not have chosen their respective spouses.
As to the Democratic candidate — I wish I knew more about Obama’s life. It’s all rather murky, and there is a lot being kept under wraps. It appears that he is choosing to further remove himself from public scrutiny.

Dear American Voters, reporters and political professionals,
Hon. Senator McCain and Obama, besides each having many attributes and characteristics. The critical differences between the two of these presidential presumptive nominees are as under:
1. Presidential “Temperament and Composer”.
2. Little Washington “insider Versus outsider” experience.
3. “Vision and mission” for our nation future rather than past.
4. American policies, ” first U.S.A Centric” than any other country [ ies ] centric.
In my professional opinion Senator Obama leads in all above qualities.
Senator Obama and his administration along with congress will address all the critical current and future domestic and foreign issues, challenges, and opportunities in coming years.
Let us remember and recite following concepts:
” Family, Friends, Fellows, Faith, Funds, Foundation [s], Fun, with Freedom & Fairness and without Fear, Favor, & Failure” . It applies to every citizen of our Greatgrand Nation.
Please stay involved, stay engaged, and stay informed. Please do not allow any seduction, deception, and or confusion by some partisan media and leaders effect your vote [ Psychological Terrorism ]..
Yours truly,
COL. [retd] A.M.Khajawall
Disabled American Veteran
Forensic psychiatrist, Las Vegas
PS: Please talk about the ” Presidential Temperament And Caliber ” of our presumptive presidential Nominees.
Thanks.

I won’t vote for Obama because we don’t need more taxes and more government interferance in our lives. If you tax big companies they pass it on to the consumers.

Although Cindy McCain gives the outward appearance as someone poised and refined, I find her comments to be rather classless.

How does Cindy McCain get to just decide to take a child from India to the U.S. at the drop of a hat one morning? Everyone else has to go through massive amounts of paperwork to adopt internationally in order to get a visa for the child. Moreover your spouse has to agree from the beginning. How did she pull this off?

Posted by: atp2007 | June 20, 2008, 12:43 am 12:43 am

I would assume that the campaign trail would be a tough one to travel. When people are tired they often say things they don’t really intend. I would think that Ms. Obama’s comments were not intended to sound the way they did.
I also believe that when people are tired they are more prone to the infamous “Freudian slip”. It’s harder to lie when you’re exhausted. The Obama family belong to a racist, anti-American hate group disguised as a church. Given her 20 + year active membership in this group I would say that her remarks may not have been intentional, but they were truthful.
If her remarks were perfectly innocent and simply a product of exhaustion then we have to ask “What is she going to say next?” First Lady isn’t an elected position but it is certainly an important one and involves a great deal of diplomacy. I’m not sure that Ms. Obama is able to meet those challenges. Some people deal with stress very well, some don’t.
If the election were to be based purely on the prospective First Lady the choice is simple. Both are beautiful, well educated intelligent women. One I trust much more than I do the other.
Just so people will know, I’m only part white so my opinion isn’t based on race.

No matter what compliments one can give to Cindy McCain and show the many organizations that she and her husband so selflessly support, one can NEVER dispute that she broke up a home and split a family. McCain was married when he took up with her.
I would rather have a man of character and honesty than an adulterer who left his wife and children. Courage does NOT equal intelligence. Does this show leadership? Trustworthiness? I think not—it shows the old political machine at work yet again—with McCain, you get 12 years of BUSH!

? did anyone listen to Ms McCain? she was politiclly correct, did NOT bash Michelle Obama, was very neutral tho they were trying to bait her into saying a negative, she didnt.
she is rich, get over it, means she knows what she is doing. if you have the money, why not look better and stave off the age process? any woman that would not has no self esteem. think Obama does not wear makeup or hit the spa?
how many richies do u see spending most of their life with charities, adopting foreign kids with medical problems? I take her 5:1 over Michelle whom was government funded education with highly questionable affiliations of a non-patriotic nature.
plus: McCain (all american patriot) vs Obama(? wants a better job, patriotism aside) I put my life in McCains hands.

You’re dreaming if you think Obama is going to sail to victory in November. This is going to be a tight Presidential race and Senator Obama is going to have to come up with more than a flowery speech of hope & change and speak to the real issues that affect Americans instead of just promising policies and programs to enable the weak\oppressed\poor to continue down the path of dependancy.

Earlier this year, Michelle Obama, Senator Barack Obama’s wife, made the comment that “for the first time in my adult lifetime I am proud of my country, because it is ready to embrace change.”
In front of a white Republican audience the day after those remarks, Senator John McCain and his wife Cindy weighed in on them. Cindy McCain said to the audience “I have always been proud of my country.” Her husband said the same, with both receiving applause and cheers.
People in the McCain campaign, a number of strident talk show hosts, Republican politicians, journalists, political pundits, and media political analysts became a large chorus denouncing Michelle Obama for what its collective voice said was her lack of loyalty and patriotism to the United States.
I remember a time when Blacks were to be dominated, confined, and excluded in their own country. Whites endeavored to do this by enslaving Blacks, denying them human, political and civil rights, subjecting them to racist laws and racist segregation, by public denigration, by denying or diminishing their education, by denying them employment opportunities, access to health and medical care, forcing them to live in poor neighborhoods, and by subjecting them to various forms of violence.
Senator John McCain and his wife Cindy were adults when much of this gross mistreatment of Black people was occurring. They said that they had always been proud of their country, without any qualifying language. That means, then, on the basis of their own words, they were proud of this country when it was treating Black people the way it was doing.
But why would Black people or any people be proud of it? Why would Black people or any people be loyal to this? Patriotic about this? This would be tantamount to being imbecilic or masochistic.

During our fight for independece and for the first hundred years (arguably our proudest time) the white establishment owned slaves, killed\domminated\converted the Native American among other atrocities. Over the next hundred years, we still segregated ourselves, and still made women & blacks second class citizens. However, during this entire period, one thing this country stood for while making progress in all of these areas was liberty and freedom. Despite their obvious flaws and hypocrisy when fighting for our independence (while still owning slaves), our Founding Fathers understood one thing-freedom and the desire to be free is a God given desire. They understood this while still owning slaves, but had the foresight to realize there was absolutely ZERO chance of achieving independence from the King if they spoke directly to emancipating the slaves during this crucial time since doing so would cause an unrecoverable rift amongst our own citizens (see American Civil War). Am I proud of what our country did in these arenas during these periods of our history? No, but I’ll tell you that I’m proud of our country from its beginning until now–don’t mistake that for not being proud of my Country and what it stands for. Our country is brilliant, founded and governed by brilliant men throughout history and I have ALWAYS been proud of it despite its flaws. You and Michelle Obama can be proud of, or be embarrassed of our country during its ebbs and flows of public policy, but I for one will be a patriot until the day I take my last breath.

After spending 20 years listening to his mentor Jeremiah Wright damn America … Obama is going to need the 200 million he’s spending to buy the Presidency … and manufacture the illusion that he is a patriot.
… And, the pattern continues, of Obama’s hatchet men discrediting his opponents … followed by Obama being critical of his own hatchet men.

Cindy McCain was very polite about Michelle Obama’s anti American stance. She never once mentioned B.O.’s hatred for the working class and very poor ideas for taxing the investoir class that keeps the funds rolling for small USA businesses.
John McCain has the Economic Plan we need to survive in this nation. Our private sector rendistion is available to read at:

Read it FIRST, then argue who knows what they are doing.

I think some people have it backwards about Cindy McCain. She doesn’t look classy. She looks like a druggie. In interviews she always looks sedated. Not only does she look trashy, but she is trashy. Sleeping with a married man, going along with him abandoning his first wife after she became crippled in a car accident, forging doctor’s signatures on prescriptions, stealing and doing drugs intended for needy patients, neglecting to pay taxes on several homes, involved in another scandal where she avoided jail a second time and her partner in business did get jail time, Cindy just got richer. She’s full of crap. That’s not first lady material. That’s a street walking hustler with 100 mil in the bank. What makes her so much better than the rest of us Americans? If we did what Cindy did, we’d be running from the cops, not running for the White House. Felons can’t even vote, much less think about being first lady. Michelle Obama is a lady. She didn’t “steal” her hubby. She did everything she was supposed to do. She went to school, got into a great college, got a degree, got a great job, married a great man, and had some great kids. That’s a first lady! Cindy McCain is a horrible example for young girls and young women everywhere. She’s just a bad representative. I’d take Michelle over her any day!!!
Obama 08!!!!!!!!!!!!

How can John McCain be president when he is so out of touch with his own wife that he didn’t even know she was messed up and addicted to pain killers and muscle relaxers?

Well, I am amazed at the unbelievable remarks from everyone concerning J. McCain. I think the people pushing Obama are completely out of touch. Everywhere you look Obama has nothing but lies, deception & terrorist involvment. The American hating preachers, Acorn & Bill Ayres these people have helped Obama and what better way to bring America down than to give the keys to the White House to a terrorist. They couldn’t do it with the airplanes in the towers! Think about your own friends and who you ran with I know your Mothers were always able to pick out the ones who was worthless so open your eyes. I was always taught if you run with the dogs you get fleas! Diana
