Bernie Mac Makes ‘Inappropriate’ Jokes at Obama Fundraiser

Under the bus, Bernie!!
Although it sure is getting crowded under there…..

This clown named Barack Hussein Obama II just keeps going in a fast downward spiral.
No wonder Clinton hasn’t released her delegates … she knows she still has a chance at the big apple!

What are Obama’s convictions? He seems to mangle his own words a lot (latest one: flip-flop on Iraq), for someone who believes in power of words, not good!
Democrats have made a mistake in selecting Obama over Hillary. Can we have her back?

It just gets easier and easier for McCain everyday, Obama’s supporters are his worst enemy.

Dang the “under the bus” thing is being overused and misused.
Give it a rest already or do some independent thinking. It’s lazy to just keep repeating the same thing over and over.
Guess what you can disagree with some of your friends actions and still be friends. What a small world and small mind so many seem to proudly and smugly have

And guess what some comedians make bad jokes. Live with it. No big deal. They don’t take into account their audience or misjudge them. Bernie Mac is still a talented individual.

Bernie Mac just wants to be more famous at the expense of Obama! Bernie got his wish! Bernie is the only one happy right now about what he did! What Obama needs is a current Will Rodgers that will not sabotage him at a Fundraiser! SNL did the same thing to Obama because he is a easy target. The humorist of today were too scared to take on Rove or Bush or Cheney or Rumsfeld when we really needed them like before the Iraq War!

Old people should calm down. Bernie Mac is funny though that wasn’t the greatest joke. Even comedians sometimes aren’t funny; no big deal. Also, what Senator Graham said is probably true. Too many finicky babies out there. We need to find jobs for those who have lost them, but it isn’t your god given right to have the same job your entire life and to drive an SUV 50 miles everyday. It’s time for for de-suburbanization. The market will regulate behavior, deal with it.

Give it up people. Bernie Mac is a comedian, admittedly not a very good one,but a comedian nonetheless. It was out of place and Sen. Obama did good to rebuke the comments.
As for a the recent articles decrying how two straight taking, let’s change politics gentlemen could devolve into the minute by minute attacks, the media would do well to question its role in this as they are the choosing what gets aired, and a great deal of what we here is released from the parties and special interest groups. In my opinion Sen. Obama has done the best in rising above it, despite other citizen’s cynicism.
No one person is perfect, but we should all aspire towards greatness. That people prefer to play to the lowest common denominator is a failure of the evolution of our society.

Bush/McCain is a tasteful joke in and of themselves…

Obama supporters back Obama even when he is clearly wrong. They can never find any fault with Obama. One word “cult”

Give me a break…
If Lisa Lampanelli does one of his fundraisers that would be news!

I’m too busy taking Obama the Orator instructions given to an audience in Ga last week to “learn Spanish” to pay attention to the crowd the GREAT One hangs out with….what a joke!

I don’t think I’ll be voting for Bernie Mac in November.

Obama is weak, he never stands up to anyone, Obama just fails over and over again. I can’t imagine having someone of such weak character as President.

So will Bernie Mac (who I think is hilarious) be held to the same standard as Imus? Enough with double standards, speech codes, overblown ‘sensitivity’.

That’s the point. BO never said he regretted the statement or apologized for having that joke said at his fundraiser. He said “I’m just messing with you”.
Once again he can’t bring himself to take a stand against a comment that he should clearly stand against.
He won’t until the pressure mounts then he’ll suddenly regret the statement.
Typical BO.

Cyberhack: Democrats really do abuse women? What do you call it when Republicans tell a woman what she has a right to do with her body. You are also an idiot.

chattyway – It was funny. Haven’t you seen the clip? It was one of those “what the heck did she just say?” moments. I’m just trying to point out that you can’t control what other people say, even your close friends and advisers.

Gee, Obama is constantly saying he disapproves with people who are his “close friends and associates.” If he disapproves of them so much: 1) why is he still close friends with them or 2) why does he still associate with them? Oh, I see – he stopped being friends or associating with them last month (or was it last week). Is he kidding?

Attitude Dude – That’s not true. Bernie Mac had a very successful sitcom that aired on network television and never had any problems with the FCC if you know what I mean. Yeah he’s pushed the envelope in his stand-up in years past, but never to very much controversy. For all intents, he is considered one of the better comics of his generation.

*JimmiTmac*…..I didn’t write anything negative about Bernie?!! Of course on TV he was censored by the censors. But I have seen him in action in the clubs, thats what I meant about “nothing is off limits”…It WAS in a PRIVATE setting. He said what he said, because he could. I think Bernie’s Great!

Posted by: Attitude Dude It’s Bernie Mac….Nothing is “Off Limits”, Even I know that! You get what you pay for. Hire a comedian, they are what they are!!!
this sounds like a boys will be boys statement to me.
same thing could be said for don imus-he was censored and suspended. by the way i am not defending imus i abhor his message.
double standard?

Obama should know better than having a comedian intro him for anything. Modern age comedians are way too dirty talking for anyone but low life’s.

the joke is not funny it is degrading and sexist. wrong venue. and poor judgement not to condem this type of trash talk sternly. missed opportunity for mr. obama.
This is a family affair. … I’m just messing with you,” Obama said.

AnneH – I think you forget that most Americans feel that we should never have been in a war with Iraq in the first place.
Posted by: JimmyTmac
Awh but Jimmy, you seem to forget that it was a bipartism vote for us to go to war with Iraq… Repubs, Dems, and Inde’s alike all voted for the war.
to place blame on repubs or mccain is totally wrong.
Talk to the troops…turn off your liberal newstations and learn the truth!
And I say …. Not God DAMN America..but God Bless AMERICA!

Since no one knows what a comedian is likely to say at such functions, maybe they should be told what to say.

Obama is the most hypocritical candidate in American politics, surpassing himself.

What is the big deal about people making joke or voicing opinions. It has never been an issue until now. Why is that? I guess it hits home hard when it’s the truth. O well I am really enjoying all this crap. It makes for an exciting election

if this ‘joke’ was told at a mccain fundraiser it would be a different story.

I heard Obama is getting a big arena for Denver, this way he can crowd everybody together. Cult leaders love for the masses to praise them.

tmniu – i don’t believe you.

It is not too late for the superdelegates to nominate the most qualified person for the Democratic nominee for POTUS. BHO is in freefall as people are waking up to who he really is. Jokes like this one have no place at a fundraiser for this, or any level of candidate.
Barack is not qualified to be POTUS.

AnneH – nice try, but Clinton didn’t make the decision when and where to invade Iraq. Bush did. Why won’t you Bush apologists let him take repsonsibilty for his mistakes? Stop blaming Clinton for every little thing and grow up. Your act is getting stale.

tminu – no it isn’t. McCain said it on a campaign stop in ’92. It’s true and it’s well documented. Deal with it.

Angie- I am not in favor of either candidate but this kind of stuff really makes me lean towards McCain

Dr P,
Our banks are failing, we are bleeding jobs, gas and groceries prices are soaring. We cannot afford another 4 years of this. McCain just promises more of the same. If McCain is elected, we are finished.

More interesting than who Obama associates with and what they say is how he dances around this stuff.

I would just like to mention that I am not the same as JustMe above.
I had no earthly idea someone else was using this name. I have been using it for months (lowercase m)….I guess I’ll change.

American Patriot – why do you confuse your crazy opinions with fact?

Everyone…compare the difference between McBush and Obama
McBush is a war hero who suffered through POW camp in Vietnam
The messiah went to elite schools and vote against changing welfare rules
McBush has decades of experience in Washington and n politics.
the messiah was a street organizer and went to radical anti-american churches and he is now CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN.
Of course the liberals are right…we need inexperience and leftist policies in the White HouSe!

Please remember, Senator Obama is the presumptive nominee and nothing is final until the convention. If you want to make a real difference, I would suggest you write, phone and/or email your Democratic representatives and the DNC and give them your opinion. Hillary Clinton suspended, not ended, her campaign, and hopefully is still hanging on to those delegates!

Bernic Mac..comedian, says something off color and you guys in the press act shocked!, shocked! There are real issues facing our country, war criminal administration, warrentless wiretapping, and Oh Yeah! Two, not one but Two wars. In ABC’s world a comedic hack is villified and real issues go unreported.

Obama: Definitely not a thinking person’s candidate!

Everyone seems to forget this “event” was OBAMA’S personal party—he is responsible for what people do at his party. Obama invited Mac and Obama had he had the ability to plan ahead should have asked what Mac planned to say….Why are all the people in Obama’s life and that support him foul mouth dogs?

Has anyone else noticed that there aren’t any funny Republicans? You wacky righties need to learn to loosen up.

Griffin,
Just wondering, how much do you weigh? I only ask because I have noticed that ALL you PUMA gals are FAT. REALLY fat. Like morbidly obese fat.
Why do all the fat girls hate Obama?

Dale,
It’s people like you that want to call yourselves great Americans, but when you are held to the principles of what America was founded on “All People Are Created Equal” then you want to act like it’s a fairy tale. Oh and yes anything you are doing that supports Obama, I will be happy to join you in!

Gary that’s not called for!

After all, obama didn’t write the joke for bernie mac,so mC cain supporters should be worry about big PHIL becoming mCcain’s VP

Some one should had researched his material before they hired him. Bernie Mack is known for rude jokes like this

A junior senator for President of the United State’s of America! What a joke. LMAO

That’s right the economy started failing as soon as Obama came on the scene.

Obama has a weak character. He did not do the right thing concerning the Bernie Mac incident.
What you call being diplomat, I call weak. Obama acts like a wimp.

Obama is bringing change, like what? He changes his mind everyday.

Obama fans let McCain have it with both barrows when a bad joke came from his camp. Now, the shoes on the other foot and BHO’s little ones can only attack McCain for something that isn’t even a part of this topic. Silly children!

this is funny – did you even read the story you posted? It reflects much worse on Merkel and the German right than it does on Obama. If that’s supposed to be a critique of Obama, it’s just lame.

Actually, one of the best jokes I’ve heard was Obama convincing millions of supporters to send in their hard earned money to his campaign because he would stand up for the things they believed in. Now, when he votes in favor of things like the FISA legislation he can say the jokes on you.

factchek is a fraud – still confusing your angry opinions with facts? Good luck with that.

bb – yeah, sure you are. I think you will be shocked in November when McCain’s alleged democratic supporters vanish completely along with all conservatives who also loathe him. The old man is going to be left high and dry in November.

between the ears – actually, McCain publicly apologized for the remark. It’s apparently a true story…

zeroknotts – it is pointless for you to talk to the liberals in here, because they seem to best you in argument any time. Clearly you are outclassed. You might want to hone your debate skills with some local fourth graders before you come back here. lol

sandy – don’t you realize that Republicans don’t want to hear about or from people like you? They just want you to die of starvation queitly while they rant and rave about what good “Christians” they are and how their taxes shouldn’t have to support anyone but themselves.
Republicans are the worst human beings on the planet.

The above article tells more about the environment Obama has chosen for himself and family and apparently continues to be part of. It forces Obama to always have to REACT quickly to fires and this is where he messes up. It is again a question of judgement (lack of). GREAT QUALITY FOR PRES. Voters are sensing this also. His money is down and is dropping in polls. Today’s Rasmussen: 43/43

Obama will need to buy another bus soon.

“Seriously, Bob, look around you and you’ll see that America truly hates the GOP now.”
And America still hates liberals too, so you’re both even.

Doesn’t anybody think this Bernie Mac guy should have shown more class than to tell a joke like that at such a fundraiser event. I mean it’s not late night cable TV or a night club. Even if it is his ‘style’ he ought to be able to clean it up for a few minutes.

Enjoy that Namburger – and I hope you make over $112K per year because if you don’t, Obama’s tax plan is better for you.

OMG Obama is dropping like a stone!! LOL

Far-left progressives, liberals or whatever you would like to call yourselves,Obama has abandoned you and moved to the center. He realizes that he’ll never win with a radical left agenda. How does it feel? Is that the change that you’ve been waiting for?

Melanie.
You cannot have intelligent dialog with someone who obviously has different values than yourself you will not reach same conclusions. That’s it!!

I guess the liberal are getting screwed again, this time from Obama. Liberals never can win, you must feel sorry for someone who can never win.

It was a funny joke.

Todd – “out of control”? Because of Bernie Mac? Hahahaha…Can I please have some of those ‘shrooms?

Democrats for McCain! What a lame nominee- Latest Newsweek poll has Obama leading by only 3% with 15% of the electorate undecided, 85% of the undecideds are white! I am going to laugh so hard at the fools who bashed Clinton during the primary and supported this unaccomplished snob when McCain is sworn into office!

Danth.
I have. Outta here also. Nite.

Actually Jimbo, no you haven’t (backed it up)

Obama condemns Bernie Mac, but he doesn’t condemn Rev. Wright for preaching HATE against JEWS and WHITES for 20 YEARS?
Obama, you’re just a fraud.
And you should speak Ebonics more often. LOL

I love the way the G-D America statement is simply accepted the way Rush and Hannity have presented it. Of COURSE they had to take it out of context. For anyone interested: Wright was asking a hypothetical question, something like “what will God think of the way we treat people? Will it be God bless America or God d*mn America?” I know some of you just don’t get that context is important, but, well, it is. I’m not a huge fan of the guy, but why did the righties need to lie about him?

I hope Obama’s kids weren’t in the crowd when Mac was talking filth and downgrading women. ABC’s spam alert goes up when I use Mac’s words and won’t let me post.

Obama can’t talk without his teleprompter.

Chatty. Thanks for making my argument for me. Now we can all stop saying Obama is a Muslim. Well, anyone with a brain can :)

Obama proves everyday how he is just not right,not apporiate, not experienced enough, not even a good Democrate with core Democratic values, canidate. Hillary should be the canidate running for President. America needs a Strong leader from Day # 1. Obama consistencly makes the wrong calls,reverses, & flips,& does 180′s & 380′s. I doubt that he knows where he stands. He a constant Change allright! Obama Makes McCain The Only Choice To Vote For. The DNC Treated Hillary Wrong & Look At What They Got Fot It!

There are no cerebral comics
practicing the trade.
They’re all low-rent. Like
their audience.

I’m shocked, shocked that Bernie Mac would tell such a low class joke.
The way I heard it is, a candidate promised to abide by public financing, but then was told he could get $500 million by selling his virtue and taking all the corporate and individual money he could get.
Realistically, if Obama gets elected, we’ll be living with a hor.

Georgie – yep! Senator Obama proves every day that he is the best candidate. Too bad you cannot say the same about Hillary or McCain!

rafraf = as does McCain!

Obama sounds like a fake motivational speaker. As for sounding presidential… The nation does not take into account a candidates oratory skills. George Bush, Georg Bush Sr. Jimmy Carter, Richard Nixon were all not impressive in public speaking….and they still managed to convince the public. There is a long track record of American Presidents without the gift of speech. When I hear Barry talk it sounds like a liar trying to sell me a car.
His whole campaign is built on the fact that he can speak…nothing behind the words.

Obama – Get some new Friends!
Rev.Wright, Pfleger, Jackson, Mack – all from corrupt Chicago – YOU are NOT Presidential Material – We are watching you – and we do NOT like what we see – you are a FRAUD!

Jim – oh, I will write it down. McCain has to try and crawl out of his skin from a reporter’s question – hems and haws – and HE is going to beat Senator Obama in a debate or town hall meeting? Only in your dreams!

Jim:
You are in fantasyland. Have you not seen that blithering idiot McCain has been on television in the last few days? He is slipping into senility. Are you serious?!! Now Jim, you and I both know that Obama is articulate and thinks well on his feet when he is queried and that he answers intelligently and comprehensibly. Obama needs no teleprompter because he is so well versed. Cant say that about that fog induced McCain. We will see Jim. My money is on Obama all the way!!

Obama is a well-spoken gentleman.

HA,HA,HA….What a clown…Just like Obama…

pdyoung – You are young – and Foolish!
WHY won’t obama DEBATE???? He keeps backing down – because he CAN’T!
He is very good at delivering prepared speeches from the teleprompter – BUT cannot seem to answer a direct question – always very vague.
Obama is a FRAUD – he Changes his message daily to suit his political needs at the moment. What exactly does this guy stand for??? The DNC picked the wrong guy – he will Never be elected President of the USA.

Another one of Obama’s “friends” speaks up. Memo to Barack: People DO judge you by the company you keep…

No – Bernie Mac is not “too out there” – BUT – this is NOT a comedy show – we are electing the President of the United States – and WOMEN do NOT like these jokes – he is trying to raise $$$$$ – he will never get $1 from me.
Seems obama had Imus Fired for same comments – what – obama can’t take a joke???

Dan here you go straight from Steve Forbes what Obama has done and is planning to with taxes—-Obama basically wants and has been working to screw anyone making over $32,000 a year.
http://www.breitbart.tv/?p=126013

Derrick — you are such a liar, my GOD!! Obama’s brother DID NOT SAY THAT, it has already been proven to be another attempt at a smear job, it was even written about RIGHT HERE on abcnews, on June 18, 2008 — JAKE TAPPER, DID A FACT CHECK ON IT, JAKE TAPPER LISTENED TO THE TAPE, AND THIS IS WHAT JAKE TAPPER SAID IN HIS ARTICLE ON JUNE 18, 2008
“NOWHERE in there does Malik expressly say anything about Obama having a Muslim background.”
GO LOOK IT UP RIGHT HERE ON THIS ABCNEWS WEBSITE: just type in the search box “FROM THE FACT CHECK DESK”.
AND YOU WILL FIND JAKE TAPPERS ARTICE,
AND THEM STOP spreading smears, Derrick!!!

Hey Dantheguy:
Iou are wasting your precious time trying to explain logic and common sense to chattyway. She is of that magnitude where she blanks out the truth and thrives on her hate, anger, lies and deep seated racism. If you look at all her blogs they filled with unprovoked hate and illogical reasoning. Thank you for being a intelligent and informative blogger.

What Obama meant by his response was that Bernie Mac was to black for him.

Didn’t Don Imus lose his job over such characterizations? It must be okay for blacks to use it for fun and games, but no one else. Obama made light of the remarks because he is going to need all the support and votes he can get? This is just like the primary campaign. Anyone who criticized any matter was called a racist. Playing the race cards must be okay when you are doing it yourself. Double standards, and more double-talking. What a joke!

i am so tired of you right-wingers acccusing Senator Obmaa of flip-floping and lying. Take a look at McCain’s record:
McCain supported the drilling moratorium; now he’s against it.
* McCain strongly opposes a windfall-tax on oil company profits. Three weeks earlier, he was perfectly comfortable with the idea.
* McCain thought Bush’s warrantless-wiretap program circumvented the law; now he believes the opposite.
* McCain defended “privatizing” Social Security. Now he says he’s against privatization (though he actually still supports it.)
* McCain wanted to change the Republican Party platform to protect abortion rights in cases of rape and incest. Now he doesn’t.
* McCain thought the estate tax was perfectly fair. Now he believes the opposite.
* He opposed indefinite detention of terrorist suspects. When the Supreme Court reached the same conclusion, he called it “one of the worst decisions in the history of this country.”
* McCain said he would “not impose a litmus test on any nominee.” He used to promise the opposite.
* McCain believes the telecoms should be forced to explain their role in the administration’s warrantless surveillance program as a condition for retroactive immunity. He used to believe the opposite.
* McCain supported storing spent nuclear fuel at Yucca Mountain in Nevada. Now he believes the opposite.
* McCain supported moving “towards normalization of relations” with Cuba. Now he believes the opposite.
* McCain believed the U.S. should engage in diplomacy with Hamas. Now he believes the opposite.
* McCain believed the U.S. should engage in diplomacy with Syria. Now he believes the opposite.
* He argued the NRA should not have a role in the Republican Party’s policy making. Now he believes the opposite.
* McCain supported his own lobbying-reform legislation from 1997. Now he doesn’t.
* He wanted political support from radical televangelists like John Hagee and Rod Parsley. Now he doesn’t.
* McCain supported the Lieberman/Warner legislation to combat global warming. Now he doesn’t.
* McCain pledged in February 2008 that he would not, under any circumstances, raise taxes. Specifically, McCain was asked if he is a “‘read my lips’ candidate, no new taxes, no matter what?” referring to George H.W. Bush’s 1988 pledge. “No new taxes,” McCain responded. Two weeks later, McCain said, “I’m not making a ‘read my lips’ statement, in that I will not raise taxes.”
* McCain is both for and against a “rogue state rollback” as a focus of his foreign policy vision.
* McCain says he considered and did not consider joining John Kerry’s Democratic ticket in 2004.
* In 1998, he championed raising cigarette taxes to fund programs to cut underage smoking, insisting that it would prevent illnesses and provide resources for public health programs. Now, McCain opposes a $0.61-per-pack tax increase, won’t commit to supporting a regulation bill he’s co-sponsoring, and has hired Philip Morris’ former lobbyist as his senior campaign adviser.
* McCain has changed his economic worldview on multiple occasions.
* McCain has changed his mind about a long-term U.S. military presence in Iraq on multiple occasions.
* McCain is both for and against attacking Barack Obama over his former pastor at his former church.
* McCain believes Americans are both better and worse off than they were before Bush took office.
* McCain is both for and against earmarks for Arizona.
* McCain believes his endorsement from radical televangelist John Hagee was both a good and bad idea.
* McCain’s first mortgage plan was premised on the notion that homeowners facing foreclosure shouldn’t be “rewarded” for acting “irresponsibly.” His second mortgage plan took largely the opposite position.
* McCain vowed, if elected, to balance the federal budget by the end of his first term. Soon after, he decided he would no longer even try to reach that goal.
* In February 2008, McCain reversed course on prohibiting waterboarding.
* McCain used to champion the Law of the Sea convention, even volunteering to testify on the treaty’s behalf before a Senate committee. Now he opposes it.
* McCain was a co-sponsor of the DREAM Act, which would grant legal status to illegal immigrants’ kids who graduate from high school. Now he’s against it.
* On immigration policy in general, McCain announced in February 2008 that he would vote against his own legislation.
* In 2006, McCain sponsored legislation to require grassroots lobbying coalitions to reveal their financial donors. In 2007, after receiving “feedback” on the proposal, McCain told far-right activist groups that he opposes his own measure.
* McCain said before the war in Iraq, “We will win this conflict. We will win it easily.” Four years later, McCain said he knew all along that the war in Iraq war was “probably going to be long and hard and tough.”
* McCain said he was the “greatest critic” of Rumsfeld’s failed Iraq policy. In December 2003, McCain praised the same strategy as “a mission accomplished.” In March 2004, he said, “I’m confident we’re on the right course.” In December 2005, he said, “Overall, I think a year from now, we will have made a fair amount of progress if we stay the course.”
* McCain went from saying he would not support repeal of Roe v. Wade to saying the exact opposite.
* McCain went from saying gay marriage should be allowed, to saying gay marriage shouldn’t be allowed.
* McCain criticized TV preacher Jerry Falwell as “an agent of intolerance” in 2002, but then decided to cozy up to the man who said Americans “deserved” the 9/11 attacks.
* McCain used to oppose Bush’s tax cuts for the very wealthy, but he reversed course in February.
* On a related note, he said 2005 that he opposed the tax cuts because they were “too tilted to the wealthy.” By 2007, he denied ever having said this, and insisted he opposed the cuts because of increased government spending.
* In 2000, McCain accused Texas businessmen Sam and Charles Wyly of being corrupt, spending “dirty money” to help finance Bush’s presidential campaign. McCain not only filed a complaint against the Wylys for allegedly violating campaign finance law, he also lashed out at them publicly. In April, McCain reached out to the Wylys for support.
* McCain supported a major campaign-finance reform measure that bore his name. In June 2007, he abandoned his own legislation.
* McCain opposed a holiday to honor Martin Luther King, Jr., before he supported it.
* McCain was against presidential candidates campaigning at Bob Jones University before he was for it.
* McCain was anti-ethanol. Now he’s pro-ethanol.
* McCain was both for and against state promotion of the Confederate flag.
* McCain decided in 2000 that he didn’t want anything to do with former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, believing he “would taint the image of the ‘Straight Talk Express.’” Kissinger is now the Honorary Co-Chair for his presidential campaign in New York.
Some “straight-talker” McCain is – sounds like just like the “straight-talk” of most of his supporters.

I forgot to tell my final joke. How do you know when Barack is coming down the hall? You hear flip flop flip flop.

Neither Obama nor McCain are a quarter as bad as you people make them out to be. They’re both exemplary public servants and should be commended for all they’ve done to make America better. Stick to the issues folks. You can agree or disagree with a candidate, but the slandering and gross disrespect to these men who dedicated their lives to making America a better place is just gross. Grow up kids.

It’s time to Imus this Bernie Mac clown.

I went to the shoe store and asked for a pair of those shoes like Obama wears. Walked out with a pair of flip flops.

Once again, inexperience and reverse prejudice cloud Obama’s campaign. Do you really expect me to vote for him? This is the FIRST time I will not vote democratic.

There is no evidence of man causing global warming even the UN global nuts wanting a share of the $45 trillion they claim will be needed to fight global warming have no evidence of greenhouse gases causing global warming much less man causing the global warming….what they did was make a computer model showing what they wanted that greenhouse could cause global warming—and this is all the “evidence” which isn’t considered evidence really. It is simply a computer generated stimulated model———with Nasa just admitting that they have been plugging in wrong data recently. Facts are, the earth has hit multiple warming periods before hence the now icey Greenland and Vineland receiving their odd names given what their climate is now. Carbon sometimes was lower, sometimes the same, and sometimes higher in previous warming periods indicating that carbon has nothing to do with warming the planet. For science geeks extra credit though—perma frost locks in Carbon and when it melts it is released into the atmosphere so carbon could rise following a warming period if the planet does not have another way to balance it out. Other planets in the solar system are warmer now…….believed to be caused by the obvious cause of warming in our solar system…THE SUN. There has been no warming since 98—–even the Ocean is slightly cooler. As hot as 98 was, 33 and 21 were hotter. There is no record keeping at the time of Vineland and Greenland’s naming but in all likelyhood they were even warmer……I am not sure what ice samples from that time say specfically.

rachael, why do you believe what Obama says? He changes everything.

obama’s campaign should have approved anything he said ahead of time. With him trying to woo the women its not a good idea to have a comic share a stage with you and joke about them, on a strategic level.
sad for me to say but i wonder if either mccain or obama really want to be the president? mccain i blow it off to he is a moron but obama is smart and was doing good until a certain point and you would think his campaign would have been on top of this, i just get this feeling that these “mistakes” arent a accident maybe he just wanted to be clintons vp and didnt expect to do so well? maybe she IS coming back later on when feelings arent so harsh against her and by then he wont be so well thought of and she will win and name him her vp? sounds crazy i know but i just cant get that thought out of my head lately!!!

Hey Abby,
Girl, you are just too funny! You seem to be mistaking McCain for Obama. Your candidate, McCain, is a bonafide idiot and you will witness this soon enough. My guy, Barack Obama is about “Change”, in a country that has been wrecked by the Republicans. And your candidate McCain represents the same insane economic policies that we have been forced to live under for the last seven and a half years. See you in November Abby when to many Americans delight, Barack Obama will be elected President of the United States. See ya!!

The issue isn’t Bernie Mac or the joke he told. It’s the response that Obama gave “I’m just messing with ya”. Very mature, strong and presidential.

Whitey cut Medic-Aid!!!
Whitey let Katrina happen!!!
Whazzup with Whitey???
Seen the tape??? Shoe drops, June 3, 2008!!!

For the last time, the source of McCain calling his wife a bad name comes from some idiot trying to sell a book stating that he is quoting 3 reporters who wouldn’t go on record—-if this story was true why didn’t the reporters come forward when it supposedly happened in 92 and write a column or something themselves/

chatt,
Kinda like a “WHITEY shoe dropping” on June 3, 2008 at 0900? You mean, like those “mysterious” stories?

Kevin,
I know, it’s just a way to point out the idiocy of most of the “I Hate Obama” stories. You see, June 3, 2008 we were all supposed to hear about Michelle Obama saying “Whitey” on a tape. It never surfaced on June 3rd, because it never happened. Obama’s a Muslim…when on Sep 10, 2001 hardly anybody KNEW what a Muslim was. Rev. Wright hate Amerikkka, but he served in two branches of the military. You see, it’s all a media SCAM, to keep us from BEING America.

Hey, Dr P – no distortions – I can give you a link for every point I made – I do the research – you do not – you only rant and rave an accuse others of not telling the truth. Yu definetly fall into McCain’s camp of NOT being a straight talker! All you “spread” is nonsensical rhetoric.

I can’t wait to be Obamanized!!!
That joker has two degrees from Ivy League college (Columbia, Harvard)
That joker was a state Senator
That joker was a college professor
That joker is a US Senator
That joker is the Democratic Party nominee for President of the United States
Get me some Obamanization!!!

Once again here we go…Obama has already voted to raised taxes on anyone making over $32,000 a year……..fools for Obama, and everyone else that doesn’t want to be sending the corrupt Obama a big check each year vote for anyone but Obama.

Hell…I’m just sitting here all Lame Duckinized!!! Is that a word? I’m not known for my vocabulary!!! Watch out, before I go nuculear…newcliar…how do you spell that, or say that?

I want every women voter to do the right thing and vote for Obama. Did you really think a women could handle the white house. I am saying all this beacause all the things that were wrong with obama are still wrong. Hillary was and still is the best choice for President

Please, Please… Obama supporters… You need to do your research. The Keating Five? Do you realize that FOUR of the K5 are DEMOCRATS… and two of those DEMOCRATS were penalized… McCain was not. And that is the event that started McCain on his quest for campaign reform.
Put the Keating Five BS to rest. You are shooting your own party (Democrats) in the foot.

Bernie Mac is a comedian people! Come on. He’s not political; he’s a comedian!!! Obama can’t handle the people. He wants everyone to act conservatively. Wake up Democrats; wake up EVERYONE! Obama is pretentious. We liberals are NEVER going to have a true leader. They’re all fakes.

The Republican Party – proof that Neanderthals are not yet extinct.
McCain has shown himself to be a BIG LIAR!!!
- On Factcheck.org, they are reporting that every statement, except ONE, which McCain is currently running in Florida, is a LIE!
- On Factcheck.org, they are also saying that the McCain is blatantly lying about Obama’s voting record.
- On Factcheck.org, they are also saying that John McCain is lying about Obama’s energy policy
JOHN McCAIN IS SUCH A LIAR, AND THE CLAIM HE HAS THAT HE WILL RUN A RESPECTABLE CAMPAIGN IS TOTAL sheer BS!
HOW IS BLATANTLY LYING ABOUT HIS OPPONENT’S RECORD RUNNING A RESPECTABLE CAMPAIGN?
NO WONDER JOHN McCAIN HAS HIRED KARL ROVE, AND THE REST OF THE BUSH WHITE HOUSE RATS, IT’S BECAUSE JOHN McCAIN IS JUST LIKE THEM!!!
He said that instead of taking a Fourth of July recess, senators should have stuck around and passed a housing bill.
McCain’s criticisms don’t hit very hard, considering he hasn’t been present for any of the six votes on the housing bill (HR 3221) in the past month. In fact, he hasn’t actually voted on anything in the Senate since April 8. McCain now ranks as the #1 most absent senator of the 110th Congress, having missed 61.8 percent of the votes. He even beats Sen. Tim Johnson (D-SD), who took several months off while recovering from a brain hemorrhage. Important votes missed include the economic stimulus package and “at least seven votes of prominence on Iraq.”

all you lefties whoop and hollar for now. Its all you have. republicas are just waiting. lefties your gona see a force beyond belief and its not obama ben ladin as pesident. OBama.haha

Lefties…Righties…Liberal…Conservatives…I’m just gonna spooge in Laura and Cindy’s face.

I just wanna see a black man as President. Tax cuts, tax hikes, abortion, climate change, gas prices, mortgage scandal, wall street…none of that stuff will change!!!
When I’m gone, don’t blame me!!!

Every snowstorm, hurricane, deluge or drought generates headlines, horror movies and television specials, demanding action to avoid imminent climate catastrophe. Skeptics are pilloried, labeled “climate criminals,” and threatened with “Nuremberg-style war crimes trials.”
Britain’s Royal Society has demanded that ExxonMobil stop funding researchers who say global warming is primarily the result of natural forces. Meanwhile, scientist James Hansen received $250,000 from Teresa Heinz-Kerry for insisting that warming is due to humans, and “socially responsible” investor services refuse to list or recommend corporations they deem insufficiently sensitive on the subject.
Not surprisingly, companies from Wal-Mart to BP, GE and JP Morgan have brought climate activists into their board rooms, lobbied Congress for climate and ethanol legislation, and retooled to produce new product lines intended to boost tax subsidies, favorable PR and profits.
But are these actions socially responsible or in the best interests of society as a whole?
Asserting “the science is settled” ignores the debate that still rages. Proclaiming that “climate change is real” ignores Earth’s constant, natural warming and cooling.
Vikings raised crops and cattle in Greenland 1000 years ago, while Britons grew grapes in England. Four hundred years later, the Vikings were frozen out, Europe was gripped in a Little Ice Age, and priests performed exorcisms on advancing Swiss glaciers. The globe warmed in 1850-1940, cooled for the next 35 years, then warmed slightly again.
Detroit experienced six snowstorms in April 1868, frosts in August 1869, a 98-degree heat wave in June 1874, and ice-free lakes in January 1877. Wisconsin’s record high of 114 degrees F in July 1936 was followed five years later by a record July low of 46. In 1980, five years after Newsweek’s “new little ice age” cover story, Washington, DC endured 67 days above 90 degrees.
Studies by National Academy of Sciences, NOAA, Danish and other scientists continue to raise inconvenient truths that question and contradict catastrophic climate change theories, computer models and assertions. The “hockey stick” temperature graph (which claimed 1990-2000 was the hottest decade in 1000 years) was shown to be invalid; the Southern Hemisphere has not warmed in the past 25 years; the US is yet to be hit by a major hurricane in 2006; interior Greenland and Antarctica are gaining ice mass, not losing it; and Gulf Stream circulation has not slowed, as claimed in 2005.
Other recent studies conclude the sun’s radiant heat and cosmic ray levels affect planetary warming and cloud formation more strongly than acknowledged by climate alarmists. That’s logical. Why would natural forces that caused climate change and bizarre weather in past centuries suddenly stop working?
Why would we assume (as many climate models do) that energy, transportation and pollution control technologies will suddenly stagnate at 2000 levels, after the amazing advances of the previous century? And can we afford the Quixotic attempt to stall or prevent future climate change?
Just the current Kyoto Protocol could cost the world up to $1 trillion per year, in regulatory bills, higher energy costs and lost productivity. That’s several times more than the price tag for providing the world with clean drinking water and sanitation – which would prevent millions of deaths annually from intestinal diseases.
Over 2 billion of the Earth’s citizens still do not have electricity, to provide basic necessities like lights, refrigeration and modern hospitals. Instead they breathe polluted smoke from wood and dung fires, and die by the millions from lung diseases. But opposition to fossil fuel power plants, in the name of preventing climate change, ensures that these “indigenous” lifestyles, diseases and deaths will continue.
Opposition to hydroelectric projects (damming rivers) and nuclear power (radioactive wastes) likewise perpetuates endemic Third World poverty. So would a new European Union proposal to tax imports from China, India and other poor countries that are exempt from the Kyoto Protocol, because this gives them an “unfair trade advantage” over EU countries that are struggling to meet their Kyoto #1 commitments.
But UK Climate Change Minister Ian Pearson insists that climate change “is one of the most pressing issues facing countries in sub-Saharan Africa.” And environmental zealots blame malaria rates on climate change, to deflect charges that their callous opposition to insecticides is killing African babies.
Elsewhere, government and private studies calculate that the Protocol would cost the United States up to $348 billion in 2012. The average American family of four would pay an extra $2,700 annually for energy and consumer goods, and in US minority communities, the climate treaty would destroy 1.3 million jobs and “substantially affect” standards of living.
Yet, even perfect compliance with Kyoto would result in Earth’s temperature being only 0.2 degrees F less by 2050 than under a business-as-usual scenario. Assuming humans really are the culprits, actually controlling theoretical global temperature increases would require 40 Kyoto treaties – each one more restrictive, each one expanding government control over housing, transportation, heating, cooling and manufacturing decisions.
The real danger is that we will handcuff economies and hammer poor families, to promote solutions which won’t solve a problem that the evidence increasingly suggests is moderate, manageable and primarily natural in origin.
The real catastrophe is that we are already using overwrought claims about a climate cataclysm to justify depriving Earth’s most impoverished citizens of electricity and other modern technologies that would make their lives infinitely better.
Real ethics and social responsibility would weigh these costs and benefits, foster robust debate about every aspect of climate change, ensure continued technological advancement, and give a seat at the decision table to the real stakeholders: not climate alarmists – but those who have to live with the consequences of decisions that affect their access to energy, health, hope, opportunity and prosperity.

McCain not only filed a complaint against the Wylys for allegedly violating campaign finance law, he also lashed out at them publicly. In April, McCain reached out to the Wylys for support.

Myfellow and you believed him? Seriously, you actually believed Obama when he said that he wouldnt raise taxes on those making less than $250,000 a year? Well, if you did, you are awfully “naive.” Perhaps, you should have checked his voting record instead of believing Obama who has been snagged lying more than there are Muslims in Iran. SteveForbes keeps good track of the tax raisers..I provided a link earlier you may be interested in.

Rep. Conyer’s is getting exited about a President Obama supporting his black reparations bill. Check it out:
http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/patient-conyers-hopes-to-move-slavery-bill-during-an-obama-administration-2007-03-12.html
The reparations group NCOBRA estimates that reparations to blacks should be roughly $5 trillion dollars [see http://www.ncobra.org. This will be hard for a country that is 9 trillion dollars in debt to pay. If you want your country to survive, just say NoBama.

Barack The Magic Negro has one Agenda: To Overthrow the Federal Government. Period.

BELEIVE THAT CANDIDATES SHOULD BE JUDGED ON THEIR OWN ACTIONS, AND THEIR OWN WORDS, THE ONES THEY THEMSELVES SAY:
- LIKE JOHN McCAIN CALLING HIS OWN WIFE A C*NT (RHYMES WITH HUNT)
- LIKE JOHN McCAIN CALLING HILLARY CLINTON’S DAUGHTER “UGLY”, AND SAYING THAT CHELSEA CLINTON IS UGLY BECAUSE JANET RENO IS HER FATHER
- LIKE JOHN McCAIN MAKING A WIFE BEATING JOKE OUT OF HIS OWN MOUTH, LAST WEEK
- LIKE JOHN McCAIN LAUGHING WHEN ONE OF HIS SUPPORTERS CALLED HILLARY CLINTON A B*TCH!
- LIKE JOHN McCAIN SAYING THAT WOMEN DO NOT DESERVE TO BE PAID THE SAME AS A MAN!
ALL THE ABOVE THINGS JOHN McCAIN HIMSELF SAID, OUT OF HIS OWN MOUTH!!!
MOST OF US WILL BE JUDGING THE CANDIDATE ON WHAT HE HIMSELF DOES, AND WHAT HE HIMSELF SAYS!!!
JOHN McCAIN IS A CHUVANISTIC PIG, A DISGUSTING MAN!!!

Wow… my last four sentence comment got held for SPAM review… and I come back and what do I find… almanacs of cut and pasted information.
What happened to Bernie Mac?

Here’s the cerebral version of the
AA comic’s joke if you can call it
that:
If a woman does it for fifty
bucks she’s a you-know-what,
but if she does it for a million
bucks she must be the Kween of Inglund!

Some of you I will not go negative…will probably be happy when America becomes a dictatorship nation…so sad…..Senator Obama is damn if he do and damn if he don’t. I donot see why he would ever want to become the president of the racism states of american.

Bernie Mac is an idiot.

To: Larry you are a igorant person.

Remember that whoever gets in, the government feels that it knows how to spend our money better than we do.

Increasingly reading these posts I can’t believe I voted for Bush twice. I am getting more and more ashamed of ever voting Republican. It’s time to steer that bus of which me fellow former travelers are so proud away from the edge of the cliff.
Many of us Republicans are moving toward Obama. After eight years veering towards the right, after a war we should never have got into, it’s time to head back to the middle path.

The BHO’s fiasco only chance at winning in November would be to put Hillary on the ticket as his VP.
Think about it – they’re saying that some 23% of Hillary’s voters are ready to back McCain and another 14% are going to sit out the presidential race in November.
Only 46% of her supporters are ready to ride that unity pony and I’m sorry – it won’t matter how many new voters they register he’s not going to win over enough of us to win the general election without Hillary at his side.

“McCain’s female campaign staff make on average a little more than his male campaign staff.”
So McCain’s a misandrist? Hardly what this country needs right now is it.

For me the current situation can be summed up as:
1) HRC doesn’t need VP. She is better of as Senator.
2) BO can’t win without her.
3) BO can’t have her as VP without upsetting his minions.
4) PUMA wants Hillary now. If not in 4 years. They don’t want to wait 8 years. So they will vote McCain.
5) If HRC takes VP and BO/VP ticket lost, she risks damaging her image in the future run.
So BO is stuck. DNC is stuck. There is no good solution for them. They don’t have any good carrot to lure Hillary to take the VP spot.
PUMA will only come back in full force if HRC is the top ticket. If she took the VP and the ticket still lost, she can’t erase that from her record. There is more downside than upside.

PUMA … the art of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

McCain is now viewed favorably by 56% of voters, Obama by 54%. Obama receives unfavorable reviews from 44% of voters while McCain is viewed unfavorably by 41%. McCain earns favorable ratings from 32% of Democrats while Obama is viewed favorably by 22% of Republicans. Among unaffiliated voters, McCain is viewed favorably by 58%, Obama by 54%.

It seems Obama is backed by the bankers responsible for the housing bubble and
the mortgage crisis. I wonder what they expect from him. Protection? The Obama mafia once again. He makes me sick already with his lies and his ignorance.

We cant afford to be divided by religion. ?????? Does this mean Obama is part of the new world order.

So what if he is a muslim, what difference does it make. What are you afraid of.

JD — so what does your “thinking” candidate have to offer?? hope and change.. what are his ideas? On his website, he states that he will pull out one battallion of troops from Iraq per month and have everyone out in 16 months.. this week, he stated that he needed to listen to the generals on the ground and then lok at the benchmarks made and decide from there.. (sounds just like Bush’s plan to me).. last week he was touting faithbased initiatives (another republican philosophy).. Maybe he is just recognizing that some to the “tiredold republican ideas are better for this country thant the utopian socialist bull crap that the dams keep shoving down our throats.. meanwhile. fual prices rise and everytime a republican pushes legislation to allow more drilling in the US, teh dems shut it down.. doesn;t sound like they care about us nearly as much as they say…the chinese are drilling fifity miles off cube, but we can’t drillin the gulf?? does that make sense to you??? If BO stands for what the dems in congress stand for.. this country can not afford his type of change.. not iof we are to survive…

Wouldn’t it be nice if Obama had at least one “normal” friend. Birds of a feather…

And the dems gave up Hillary for this piece of work. GO PUMA !!!

Imagine the screaming if Don Imus made these comments. But, hey, it’s a friend of Obama’s, so it’s okay, right???

ROBERT – I read your post – it is all conjecture and has no founding in truth. And, what difference does it make what religion anyone is? Romney is a Mormon and Republican voters went crazy over that and put McCain in as thier candidate instead. This country ws founded on freedom of religion – people like you want to take that freedom away??????

What a clean-cut, God-fearing guy Obama is! Now he’s distanced himself from Jeremiah Wright, Jesse Jackson, Bernie Mac and his grandma… I reckon if he thought he could get away with it Michelle would face the same fate.
Fear the wrath of King Obama!

OBAMA WANTS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHITE PEOPLE. CHANGE HE WILL HAVE AN ALL BLACK CABINET AND ADVISORS. IT WILL BE AN ALL BLACK GOVERNEMENT. IT WILL BE CHANGE ALL RIGHT.
GAS WILL BE $20 A GALLON BECAUSE HE WILL NOT DRILL. HE WANTS SUPER HIGH GAS PRICES SO HIS WINDMILLS WILL BE MORE PROFITABLE. THE GUY IS NUTS. HE WILL RUIN AND BANKRUPT AMERICA. HE ALSO WANTS TO SPY ON ALL AMERICAN PHONE CALLS. WHAT A CREEP. HE VOTED YES ON FISA TO LISTEN TO ALL OUR PHONE CALLS. THE END OF FREEDOM IN AMERICA. WILL HE DECLARE HIMSELF THE DICTATOR AND THAT WILL BE CHANGE.
OBAMA THE MESSIAN IS A FALSE IDOL. REMEMBER DO NOT PUT FALSE IDOLS BEFORE ME. WELL HE READS THE KORAN.

“This is a family affair. … I’m just messing with you”…
is there anything Obama will not flip flop on?

Johnny – McCain is the flip flopper’s flip-flopper – 62 so far in this campaign. He sounds like a car with four flat tires:
FLIPFLOPFLIPFLOPFLIPFLOPFLIPFLOP

Jeremiah Wright, Jesse Jackson, Bernie Mac are not policy makers. Phil Gramm, on the other hand,is McCain’s CHIEF economic advisor – the author of the Enron loophole. McCain admits he knows nothing about economics – Gramm lines his own pockets – great (sarcasm) direction for the economy of this country.

Obama is good at “change”, as his views change every time the wind changes direction. If you don’t like his view on a particular subject, wait a minute, it will change.

OH MY GOSH!!! DemocratNoMore2 is using my quote to say we should vote for Hillary!!!
Just for the record… I’ll be distancing myself from the comments of DemocratNoMore2 now.
I’m going to take a shower… somehow I feel very dirty.
Please, DemocratNoMore2; go wash your mouth out with soap (And I thought Bernie Mac was nasty)!
Gordon Greene

Jesse jackson had he right idea.

Sunlen Miller has apparently been spending too much time in the back of the Straight-Talk Express, so-to-speak. Instead of this BS, how about McCain’s suggestion to kick Russia out of the G8?

Ben in VA, you left out Obama’s friend PDiddy, who explicitly said “Obama or die” a few weeks ago.

Katie from Kentucky 4:11:59pm. Your comments are exactly why I will vote for McCain since Hillary is out. I’ll chalk your mentality up to your brother must be your daddy.

david from texas – sorry – there are plenty of us who want Senator Obama in the White House. You see, we DID wake up long ago – seems you are the one still sleeping.

david from texas – I watch the polls every day. The polls will float like crazy from now until October or November. The only thing that gets my attention is the EV projections – Obama 366, McCain 172.

ROBERT – you really are stuck on the Muslim thing. Too bad that you do not have an open mind and can accept that what is is. Senator Obama is a Christian – just like me. You Muslim believers and Senator Obama haters had better build bunkers for when Senator Obama is elected . You are so scaring yourselves to death you will need them for mental relief.

david from texas – so would anyone else give bin Laden a trial, a lawyer, etc. That is the way LAW works. Gitmo has proven that.

david from texas – I LOVE the way Senator Obama fills his suit! McCain, on the other hand, looks like a dufus.

WAKE UP AMERICA
None of this is of any importance.

Folks. It doesn’t matter who gets elected. We are heading straight for a 2nd great depression. Stop attacking your fellow Americans, live by the Constitution and prepare for some VERY tough times ahead.

Every other day I get a call from the Obama campaign for donations and every time I tell them that I’ll donate when I see Hillary named as VP. Instead he keeps rubbing her nose in her loss and his people make bad jokes. Well, I’m not amused. The only thing worse than a bad loser is a bad winner.

david from texas Why do support Senator Obama? Several reasons:
Charismatic
Youthful
Intelligent
Education
Authentic
Ability to Galvanize
Change
Uniting Message
Well-mannered
Well-spoken
Grounded
A visionary
Senator Obama is a leader – I like his style.

ROBERT – Hillary’s supporters who said they would not vote for Senator Obama have dropped from 69% to 11% since he wrapped up the nomination. He has a strong core base of both liberals and moderates, he has a strong African-American base, older women like me are supporting him in larger and larger numbers as are many Liberterians, more white men are moving into his camp. PUMA voters want to stay home or vote for McCain – their loss, not the American people’s loss.

And then there are the idiotic McCain quotes:
“I disagree with what the majority of the American people want.”
“I ‘Don’t See How It Matters’ That I Don’t Know The Price Of Gas.”
“I am fully prepared to be commander in chief… I don’t need on-the-job training.”
“Remember the words of Chairman Mao: ‘It’s always darkest before it’s totally black.’.”
“I will veto every single beer, um, bill with earmarks.” –speaking at the National Small Business Summit, Washington, D.C., June 10, 2008.
“We should be able to deliver bottled hot water to dehydrated babies.” –Kenner, Louisiana, June 3, 2008.
“I’m going to be honest: I know a lot less about economics than I do about military and foreign policy issues. I still need to be educated.”
“I am a illiterate that has to rely on my wife for all of the assistance I can get.” -after being asked whether us uses a Mac or a P. C “It’s not social issues I care about.”
“F**k you! I know more about this than anyone else in the room.” –to Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), during a testy exchange about immigration legislation.
“No, I’m calling you a fu**ing jerk.” –to fellow Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley, when Grassley asked “Are you calling me stupid?”
“I said, ‘The nice thing about Alzheimer’s is you get to hide your own Easter eggs.’”
“Do you know why Chelsea Clinton is so ugly? Because Janet Reno is her father.” –at a 1998 Republican fundraiser.
“I will conduct a respectful debate. Now, it will be dispirited — it will be spirited — because there are stark differences. I am a proud conservative, LIBERAL Republican– conservative Republican.
“I would vote for a Muslim if he or she was the best candidate able to lead the country and defend our political values.” –John McCain
Between McCain’s potty mouth, his horrible put-down of his own wife in public, the votes he has cast against women and veteran’s, his hissy-fits,..he has proven himself unfit to be president.

Sandy – thanks for that post. More proof that John McCain is a nasty, spiteful man. For me, manners and politeness count and say alot about a man’s character. I don’t think John McCain is a good man or that he has good morals – after all, he’s been caught taking bribes, is a confessed adulterer, he cheats on his taxes and even called his own wife the c-word in public. I’m sorry, but I think he’s kind of disgusting. I would rather take my chances on a decent family man like Obama. I am tired of the Republicans and their nasty, aggressive tactics and smashmouth politics.

Senator Obama’s campaign has been impressive: more cash, more volunteers, more ads, more opportunities to go on offense, more enthusiasm, more…everything. Voters who won’t vote for Obama because he is biracial are the same voters who wouldn’t vote for any Democratic nominee. Senator Obama has graduated from TWO Ivy League colleges, become a Law Professor/Lecturer, state Senator, US Senator, author, husband, father, and first African American major party nominee…and some say Senator Obama is an empty suit??? I guess we should all aspire to become so “EMPTY”.

go david from texas…you are the bomb..i live in missouri…where exactly are you from in my dream of state texas???

This story is garbage. Total yellow journalism. Obama is still much better on women’s issues than McCain. Hell, McCain doesn’t even know what his policy is towards insurance and women’s birth control.

david from texas…stand your ground….i have done so over the last 15 months…..this has been a real hard faught battle.

carlasue – maybe you should be fighting the battle against illiteracy instead. Why can’t Republicans ever read and write English at an adult level?

david from texas? who the hell is j. cifre and who cares what some rightwing hack at savage politics thinks about anything? sounds like the guy is suffering from anti-obama derrangement syndrome to me.

david from texas,
Keep dreaming fool…
Your “old fool” of a candidates top adviser on the economy just called all of us having to pay almost $5 a gallon for gas and $4 a gallon for milk a bunch of whinners! He said we are in a “mental recession,” tell that to my brother that just lost his job because his company moved to China! Your Alzheimer’s patient is so FINISHED!
Guess what dumbass, do you know why Obma isn’t creaming him over this right now? He is saving it for a continuous loop in October!!!
Good luck with all of that fool!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!!
Obama in a landslide in November!!!!!

maryann…if i made a mistake in my spelling, i am sorry. i am a true dem and i have been a true believer that the dems are smarter than the rebubs…anyone want to challenge me here…

Bernie mac is not Gramm, with a PhD and life long serious politics. Bernie is what he is because he makes this kinds of jokes. So, this is no scandal. the joke is you for taking Bernie so seriously.

david from texas – it is because you make it so easy!

“ok, here we go, davis is on line again…damn…he is so negative and full of hatred and s&$t. davis is the worst of the worst. i am a true dem. he is a mockery. i cannot believe he still blogs on this site. davis, you are a true embarrassment to a true dem party…..what the hell are you trying to prove brother…

====================================
Carlasue,
I just don’t like liars that’s all. Whether it is Hillary SORE losers like you or these Republicans blogging for an old fool that has no real position or plan, just a bunch of BUSH BS…
Hate is a strong word, actually I would just call it calling a spade a spade as I have done for months on here now…
Remember me? I was one of many that told you your Sniper Fire Liar Clinton would lose and guess what, I was right!!!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!
So PUMA that! Hay, when is that “million bitter woman march” happening, I forgot the date. Can you let me know as I sure don’t want to miss that one!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!!
Obama ’08!!!!!!

carlasue, about your fictional belief system about “rebubs”, go right ahead and tell yourself that you’re superior, that’s what all fascists do. Fascism has to do with squelching freedoms and centralizing control = Democrats. It does take an egomaniac to believe that’s right.

david from texas,
If I was an “Obamabot” as you say then I would donate to Hillary’s campaign to pay off that bad debt of hers, wouldn’t I? I mean anything my fearless leader tells me to do right?
Well guess what I just donated $100 to Obama tonight, with the comment that if one cent goes to Hillary I want my money back!
So much for us Obamabots following exactly what we are told!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!!!
Obama ’08!!!!!!

tminu – and thank goodness so many of us are donating to Senator Obama’s camapign, working our butts off getting voters registered, working at campaign headquarters, working at our polling precincts – too bad you cannot share in the joy we have of working for Senator Obama, the people we meet, the satisfaction we are feeling for a job well done. I have worked on every presidential campaign since JFK’s. This is the best campaign ever!

davis, i never thought the sniper fire story was true…but my dem brother….what about 20 years in the pulpit with obama listening to the rev wrong…..i will call wrong wrong, and i will call right right. so where are we here…

This will sure get womans votes. Obama for prez. I’s just messing with ya! Funny isnt it Barrack! ?

ok davis, so why do you keep bringing up sniper fire…for god’s sake, are you a true democrat or just an image of one

carlasue – Just a clarification, the truth doesn’t need to be “believed” in. Since it is the truth, it stands easily on its own merits, without need for a belief system to be developed in order to support it. [SMILE]

Hey Carasue,
I am not sure where you stand. I realize that you respect your father and all but I do not know where you stand on the candidates or the issues.

Forget about “Not being responsible for what friends supporters say” Don’t you think that a machine as large as Obama’s would have the presence of mind to have one of the “Handlers” review the material, maybe even have given poor Bernie the “Hey man lets lay low on sexist or racist comments” speech especially in light of so many things going wrong lately?
Not rocket science folks a little preperation goes a long way.

CarlaSue
The Battle that Obama will need to fight won’t be an easy one…I call it an issue when the negative publicity that comes out of a 2300 dollar a head fundraiser will cost more than was raised to overcome.
The devil is in the details and if the obama camp isn’t smart enough to excercise a levl of control against the verbal meanderings of his what truly are his “friends”, he will continue to get pounded unnecessarily, and if it continues to happen, the image of someone who also might not be able to control his administration as President will emerge in the minds of the fencesitters ( and they are out there).
The Obama TEAM needs to get out there and DO THEIR JOBS to prevent unnecessary garbage like this from happening.
the worst perception is not to even be perceived as Evil….but as hapless.

Obama gave the most boneheaded response possible – “I’m just messing with ya”. Wow, now that’s a presidential response if I ever heard one.

The sound of flip flopping I hear is from the tires of McCain’s campaign bus running over the lobbyist/campaign advisers he has had to toss out.

Can the DNC, someone please ask Obama to step down and go back to his Chicago buddies and pastor friends.
Get him out of the running.
He is embarrassing for Americans.
The world is watching.

“To much drama with Obama. ”
Better than too much pain with McCain.

And what brings you here so early, Fran?
This is story is not irrelevant because of the fact that ABC is covering it instead of say, exposing the fact that John McCain was lying when he said “Phil Gramm does not speak for me.”
I always drop by to point out the press is the problem. Along the way I like to flush out weasels like Buddy, Granny, and West Coast Messenger.

Source?

Don’t you dems ever get tired of defending BHO? Every article, every day. Same thing over and over again. Doesn’t it wear you out? Or more importantly, don’t you ever question WHY you have to do this so often? Think about it…

Obama is a politician – he will go anywhere or say anything to get a vote or a dollar.

The polls reflect the disappointment the voters are having with Obama. Bye Bye Barack, bye bye Michelle.

Obama will probably change parties after the inauguration.

Does anyone see the similarities between Bernie’s joke and the Obama clan? Does anyone else think that the “uncle” was really Rev Wright and the mother h’o is really Michelle?

The wheels on the bus go round and round ………….

If Obama can’t stand up to Bernie Mac who can he stand up to?

Melanie.
Yep – here’s looking at me kid! As I said, last nite, HC definitely tougher for McCain to beat in Nov. Ironically, I crossed over in OH primary and voted for Hill not for political reasons, but, felt Obama just too much of a disaster to be considered.

Ted.
It wasn’t the JUST the joke (but that is another issue) – it was HOW Obama responded to it.

Obama’s friends and acquaintances are all the same kind. You want thi man to be in the White House? He will paint the House Black!

Bernie Mac is a comedian? I thought Bernie Mac was a government mortgage program.

Obama has been lying to the American public and showing his communist, propagandist ways with his hired bloggers, water bottle-gate gimmick and the calculated way that he says “uh” at just a certain part of his sentence. The man is an ultimate phony!

Tate is right. Iraq IS safer than Chicago and Obama has done NOTHING about that. Actually, Iraq is now almost a non issue. Airlines starting back up, businesses flourishing and residents returning to their homes. The real kicker is Iran/Israel – Obama has no clue about that.

See how the truth hurts!

Memo to John McCain:
Don’t ask Joan Rivers to open for you!

Hillary would have been crushing McCain by now. The polls would be showing her with a huge double digit lead. Instead, we have Rasmussen showing a tie 46-46 as of today. Obama is not liked by as many as he is liked.

OBAMA IS NOT BLACK NOR WHITE, HE IS WHAT IS MOSTLY FOUND IN ANIMAL SHELTER’S…….MUTT’S !!!!
He FALSE ADVERTISEMENT..!!
ANYONE WHO WILL NOT RESPECT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA’S FLAG, A FLAG FOR WHICH THIS NATION WAS FOUNDED AND EVERY COLOR OF SKIN HAD SPILT THERE BLOOD FOR, SHOULD IN NO WAY EVEN BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY..!!
THE EXTREMELY WEALTHY AND EXTREMELY POOR HAVE BECOME THE BIGGEST BUNCH OF *SSHOLES I’VE EVER SEEN. MIDDLE CLASS, THEY COULD CARE LESS AS LONG AS THEY CAN DRIVE THEIR SUV’S AND BLAME SOMEONE ELSE FOR GAS PRICES…..!!!!!!
The same thing happened 2000 years ago when a society seen as strong, fell flat on their face like this one is doing!!!!

Celia- Keller, TX.
Obama’s response was not funny and is nothing to laugh about.

JOHN McCAIN CALLED HIS OWN WIFE CINDY McCAIN A C*UNT!
JOHN McCAIN CALLED HIS OWN WIFE A C*UNT!, AND JOHN McCAIN DID THIS INFRONT OF 3 REPORTERS, AND 2 OF HIS OWN CAMPAIGN AIDES: Doug Cole and Wes Gullett.
JOHN McCAIN IS A DISGRACE!!

I wonder what would happen if a white tv station decided to only air the Republican convention. Just saw where TV ONE is going to air the Obama Coronation and not the Republican Convention. I don’t think it would make one bit of difference if Obama came on smoking crack the black society would vote for him. This election is just unbelievable.

Yeah – because some “associate” of Obama’s (a comedian) made an off-color joke we should endure another 4 years of a Bush-like administration and completely disassemble what’s left of the United States of America. Let’s hire another president with a sub-par intelligence quotient and a penchant for “pulling the trigger”, with little or no forethought, when someone offends his family or looks at him “funny” (or when the people who really tell him what to do give him “orders”). Bernie Mack’s remarks are far more irrelevant to Obama, as an individual, than the startling and frighteningly unrealistic remarks made by Phil Graham as they relate to his very long-time political crony John McCain. Banks are failing, unemployment is skyrocketing – it’s like 1929 here in Flint, Michigan. And this dodo has been one of John McCain’s closest professional associates for decades.
Bernie Mack is something of an idiot – but this country has been led to ruin, over the last 8 years, by an even bigger cast of idiots (I’ve heard that Bernie Mack can actually pronounce “nuclear”). You whacked out conservatives will use anything to obfuscate the truth.

Rachel, I am going have to stop you there….first off, the paper shown on the internet is not a birth certificate and two, this certificate of live birth has been altered. It is very possible that Obama is not a natural US citizen therefore legally not qualified for president—-you could be hiding something else like his religion of birth but given how much his marxist mother hated america too—it is likely she advocted her and her child’s citizenship. Barrack under the name of Barry Soetoro in Indonesia was listed as an Indonesian citizen on school records.

Another Obama flip flop per LGF
Obama’s Jerusalem Flip-Flop Now Complete
Sun, Jul 13, 2008 at 12:46:01 pm PDT
Yet another major policy reversal for Barack Obama, and again he’s blaming it on “poor phrasing.”
He’s very obviously giving in to the enormous pressure from pro-Palestinian groups.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama said on Sunday he used “poor phrasing” in a speech supporting Jerusalem as the undivided capital of Israel.
“You know, the truth is that this was an example where we had some poor phrasing in the speech. And we immediately tried to correct the interpretation that was given,” he said in an interview aired on Sunday on CNN’s “Fareed Zakaria — GPS.”
“The point we were simply making was, is that we don’t want barbed wire running through Jerusalem, similar to the way it was prior to the ‘67 war, that it is possible for us to create a Jerusalem that is cohesive and coherent,” Obama said.
Obama’s campaign has issued similar clarifications since the candidate’s speech to pro-Israel lobby group after he clinched the Democratic presidential nomination early last month.
In the speech, Obama told the American Israel Public Affairs Committee that if elected president in November, he would work for peace with a Palestinian state alongside Israel. “Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided,” the Illinois senator said. Palestinian leaders reacted with anger and dismay. [And so, under the bus with you, Jerusalem! – ed.]
The bottom line here is that Barack Obama tried to pander to AIPAC with one of the most important issues for Israel, telling them exactly what they wanted to hear. Then he basked in the applause.
And now he’s weaseling out of it.

Guy Merritt, you may be praying for a Bush third term if Obama gets elected.
–If Obama gets elected expect much higher gas prices
Obama and the Democrats have refused to drill for more oil, build new refineries and are against nuclear power. Alternative energy such as wind and solar cannot replace the energy derived from oil. So what is Obama’s solution? Well he has already told you and I say it it not paranoid to say that someone who says “We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK,” Obama said. wants us all to lower our standard of living.
– If Obama get elected count on Higher taxes
Obama has stated that he will repeal Bush’s tax cuts which would mean a family of four earning $50,000 taxes would go up by $2500. Obama would also raise income taxes, payroll taxes, corporate taxes and dividend taxes.
– If Obama gets elected expect Job loses and massive unemployment
Higher corporate taxes and dividend taxes will dry up capital and thus investment. Businesses will be forced to lay off, close down or move to more tax friendly nations along with the jobs.
— If Obama gets elected expect a defeat in Iraq
The surge is working in Iraq and the US is now winning despite Obama’s prediction that the surge would not work. A defeat in Iraq will allow Al Qaeda and Iran to regain control over Iraq and Iraq’s large oil reserves will give Al Qaeda and Iran the opportunity and means to raise havoc in the Middle East (more war death and destruction) and attack the US and attack us hard.

Look at the way Bernie Mac conducted himself in a fund raiser for the presumptive nominee for President of the United States of America. Shame, same on you Bernie Mac! I am sickened to read this article. have you no pride? have you no sense of decency and decorum? What the hell is wrong with you black people? Don’t give me no bull about being a comedian, or doing your job; there is a time, a place and a season for everything under the sun. this may be the silly season, but that was neither the time nor the place, Bernie Mac.
I think you owe Senator Obama an apology. I fear that if Obama looses this elections, it will be because of people like Bernie Mac. That was so disrespecting of women and so absolutely inappropriate that I am seeing red. Shame on you Bernie Mac

I don’t think BM understood his audience. Because honestly the joke was funny, but not for this crowd. More for the crowd that Bernie mac does his stand up comedy routine for. Chris Rock would have been a better option. I’d really like something positive to make the news about an African American saying something about Obama. As an African American, I’m disheartened to hear all these negative remarks coming from other African Americans on Obama – who publicly support him. Its almost like – keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.’
The good news is no one really cares about jesse jackson! LOL

everytime someone speaks in obama’s presence, there is something distasteful about the comment. If you did not want x-rated comedy why choose someone who would do what they do best? I think most people are looking for a needle in a hay stack, get over yourselves. The real issues are the problems of the world and this country, not who said what, where, when or how.
We need to focus on the real picture which is to deal with Obama’s plans for this country if he is elected president and not what someone else says or does (this country was built on freedom of speech, or was it)

Bernie Mac misjudged the crowed…He should have told jokes more suitable…

this countryas a whole is already under the bus with the Bush then Clinton then Bush years. The result banks going under, mortgage foreclosures, increasing unemployment, corrupt CEOs, inflation, our young men and women losing their lives in a country that will never assume responsibilty for themselves as long as our leaders are willing to foot the bill of a war gone wild, the collapse of our roads, bridges,levees to the point that every time there is a strong storm you wonder if you will have a home after it is over. Thank you George H. Bush, William J. Clinton, and the cherry on the top of this mess that the new president whoever it is going to be must clean up, George W. Bush. I for one am looking for at least some one with a fresh outlook that maybe able to see daylight through this mess they have made. I think that person is Barack Obama. What would we have if he didn’t instill us to hope we can fix this mess? And for us to fix it together? Can it be fixed with just Congress? Are they doing anything?

Bernie’s a renown comedian! The joke’s on the New Yorker! Is this SATIRE or SIMILE? – Looks like the mailman paid the New Yorker!
“My little nephew came to me and he said, ‘Uncle, what’s the difference between a hypothetical question and a realistic question?’” Mac said. “I said, I don’t know, but I said, ‘Go upstairs and ask your mother if she’d make love to the mailman for $50,000.’”
Was it a premonition or just great timing? …jokes on the New Yorker! LOL

you know I know we have freedom of speech and I know Obama ain’t no angel
But he sure is a breath of fresh air.
Success is the best revenge……..

It was a JOKE … something to make people laugh … loosen up the crowd. This has nothing to do with race, class, religion, or partisanship! We’re really going to allow the media to get us this riled up over some overblown “incident” they’ve decided to report since all other news (i.e. “Valuable news = world news) doesn’t sell?! Let’s all look inward before we start to point a finger.

Bernie Mac was a genius! I hope he offended every snooty politician there!
R.I.P. Mac Man! You’ll never be forgot!

I thought the joke was funny.

Bernie was the best at what he did, and we will surely miss him. Don’t invite a comedian to a fundraiser, if thats not what you want

Bad decisions always being made. Was it a bad decision or ignorance to have Bernie Mac introducing Mr. Obama

I was glad that Obama felt Bernie Mac’s jokes/language was inappropiate. It was vulgar, crude, and unfunny. I believe that Obama felt that Bernie would at least, for once, show a little respect for this fundraiser and clean up his jokes and language. But I guess that was expecting too much of this comedian.

It’s not so much the fact that Bernie Mac jokes are like that, its the fact Obama talked to him like a hypocrite , which he is. He disagrees and agrees all at the same time but Obama should shut up, Mac raised money for him.

don’t trip on obama

this is stupid and not funny for bernie mac to do this i am trying to do a report on him and i cant find anything at all

Now reading all these comments, and news reports, all I can think off is, “What a waste of energy!” Bernie Mac is dead and Obama is president. Now who is it that put Bernie Mac under the bus? The joke was funny. All of you uptight, negative, sore losers would have laughed your wigs off in your living room. Why should it be any diffent in public. Bernie Mac was himself and was not afraid to be himself. Obama becoming our president isn’t putting anyone in their grave, and if he doesn’t do a go job, then don’t vote for him in four years. Troubling times are never fun, but they inspire the truly great people in the world to strive to make a difference. That’s life.
