Michelle Obama: Vote on Issues, Not Likeability and Attractiveness

It is a wonderful idea but there is a large number of people who vote for labels and personalities on both sides of the aisle.

“It is a wonderful idea but there is a large number of people who vote for labels and personalities on both sides of the aisle.”
Very sad but very true.

Michelle is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!
We missed you, where have you been Michelle???
So, Obama could not fight, they send his wife to do the dirty work for him….
Oh! It’s that “change we need” thing! Go it

Why oh whyyyy did Barack let Michelle out?????
For God’s sake she’ll sink him again.

What a great idea, Michelle!
Vote based on issues not on looks.
Substance over style.
Sounds good to me.
I’m sure then that you will understand who this American will be voting McCain/Palin in November (and cuteness isn’t a factor)

He let his baby mama out of the closet! And she goes straight for the jugular on a fluff issue.

I agree, Greendale. For all the Repub whining about how Sarah Palin has been treated, they’re not exactly fair or nice to Michelle Obama are they? She has suffered many personal insults with grace and dignity. She will be a fabulous First Lady!

IF you are commenting negatively about Michelle Obama, by definition it cannot be sexist.
This is how much the GOP understands the word. They are duping women the way they duped and are duping the religious right.

Michelle is right. Vote issues not appearances. Be an informed voter. McCain ran an ad with Paris Hilton, Britany Spears and Obama, inferring he was a celebrity not to be taken seriously. It didn’t work. So it appears to get attention and the rock star treatment that he felt Obama was getting, he made a tactical decision and decided to run with Palin. It worked! Everyone was curious, people flocked to rallies just to see her. But as time goes on, people are beinging to see a lack of substance. It’s not too much of stretch to think that Palin is John McCain’s Paris Hilton.

So Michelle is saying that Palin is just “looks”?????????
wwwwoooooooooooowwwwwwwww

I totally agree with her. I am not going to be having dinner with either one. I am voting on issues and who has the best plans to get us out of this mess. That would be Obama.

Jeremy,
She made a point of saying that she was talking about herself so the people worried about sexism wouldn’t blow a gasket.

HP Boston:
Most Democrats would never say anything bad about Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild as she donates heavily to their side, but uh… you can have her. She’s essentially British aristocracy.
She has as much in common with the average American as the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.

If you can’t trust a candidate’s character and integrity how can you trust them to handle difficult issues?
McCain is the one for me.

Funny that she would make these comments since her husband is the one trying to win this thing on charisma and likeability. I guess you have to depend on that when you have no substance. I hope the American people see through all the fluff and do look for the facts, because Obama has nothing to stand on in the end.

Mesquito, uh. Michelle Obama is not running for office. She is the wife of a candidate and unlike Hillary Clinton, has shown very little interest in actual politics.
I mean, you might as well ask if Palin’s husband graduated from college (he didn’t).
Does it matter? No.

I don’t think so Michelle. I will vote on issues and values and likeability. I have a problem with your values. You seem racist to me.

Michelle forgot to mention how transformative it would be to vote for her husband because he is black.
And how patriotic it would be to vote for his tax increases.

JohnTX: So, did she ever take and pass a bar exam?

Mesquito, I don’t know, but I also don’t care. It’s not a requirement to take the bar exam. Did you? She is an educated woman with a good job and two lovely daughters.
And Jeremy, she wrote about how difficult it was to fit in at a practically all-white college where she was one of just a few students of color. There was nothing racist about it, just honest.

With likability you don’t need issues,
this is America.

To answer those who asked, Michelle Obama worked as an intellectual property lawyer for Sidley Austin, one of the top law firms in Chicago. As for taking and passing the bar, I can’t confirm, but she likely had to take the Illinois bar exam in order to work for the firm.

Michelle Obama is an issue!

It will be great to have a smart, intelligent black woman as First Lady. I believe that’s whats really upsetting these hatemongers, they really don’t want to see this wonderful black wife and mother in that role.

HP Boston:
I never said she didn’t earn her money. I said she was a British aristocrat. She abandoned America to become an aristocrat.
That’s one of the least American things you could do. I mean it is literally against the very principals of what this country was founded on.

Should her remarks not apply when considering BO”s caandidacy?

Michelle’s negative rating runs very high. Barack would be wise to send her back into hiding. With Joe if possible.

The one that everyone was talking about three months ago, but seems to have forgotten all about because Obama said on his anti-smear website that it didn’t exist.
Which of course, means it doesn’t….

H P Boston, so in other words she woulda been rich either way. The point is the rich are out of touch with the common people who could easily topple them from their ivory towers and leave them in a ditch. They should tread very lightly when complaining about having to actually pay their fair share. Dont give me the line of malarky about the wealthy paying the most taxes already because Im talkin about them givin up at least half of what theyve gotten. America is in desperate times and those at the bottom are at the end of their patience. If they love America they wont mind giving most of that up, and also if they enjoy living, they wont complain.

I think that if this had been cindy Mccain who said this, then it would not have been a problem. But everything Michelle does is an issue to the right wing, it’s their racism coming out. which is disgusting from a bunch of people who think they are educated!!!!

Watch some of the posters here go absolutely berserk over Michelle Obama – one of the most classy ladies I have seen and heard in a long time – and you suddenly understand why Rev. Wright is not particularly fond of the certain parts of the USA.

kirsten,
It only indicates one thing, the death of conservatism. Haters never win.

michelle’s awesome. class act.

Hey golfgirlusa,
John McCain didn’t earn anything, he just had the brass to marry a cute, rich thing.

Switzerland, wich is mainly progressive and conservative wants Obama to be elected with 68% vs 32%

It’s quite contradictory of so many people to post disparaging things about Michelle Obama while on the same token denouncing sexism for the sake of the female on the Republican ticket.

What exactly did Michelle say that is so angry? Nothing. Vote on the issues not likeability is mean???? I think alot of the posts on here are much more offensive than anything she has said. And yes, she did PASS THE BAR EXAM. You can not work as a lawyer without passing the bar! White, middle aged, and making less than 250,000. I will vote on the issues and that is for Obama/Biden

I agree… Both Palin and Michelle are strong women and I applaud that. However, I don’t see McCain/Palin taking me anywhere but backwards on any of the issues facing the nation.

Her college thesis was about FITTING IN.
Didn’t you watch her speech at the DNC? SHE ROCKED THE HOUSE, dressed very modestly. WARM, SMART, CLASSY WOMAN.
Cindy, on the other hand, showed up in a $300,000 outfit and looked like a preying mantis in Dior. Scary. All the lipstick in the world won’t help.
MICHELLE ROCKS.
NO COMPARISON.

Sheeeee’s Baaaaaack! The wicked witch of Illinois is back spewing her vile hate.

The Pubs can’t stand Michelle Obama. I love it!
She’s better educated than both their candidate and their (hahahhahaa) VP nominee.
FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA
Get used to it!

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (CNN) – Sarah Palin likes to tell voters around the country about how she “put the government checkbook online” in Alaska. On Thursday, Palin suggested she would take that same proposal to Washington.
“We’re going to do a few new things also,” she said at a rally in Cedar Rapids. “For instance, as Alaska’s governor, I put the government’s checkbook online so that people can see where their money’s going. We’ll bring that kind of transparency, that responsibility, and accountability back. We’re going to bring that back to D.C.”
There’s just one problem with proposing to put the federal checkbook online – somebody’s already done it. His name is Barack Obama

The thing about Michelle Obama is that she is not warm and fuzzy. Neither is Clinton, but somehow people have filed her away as “politician” which does not need to be warm and fuzzy.
Of course, she is the wife of a candidate and Cindy McCain is hardly the warm and fuzzy type herself, so I don’t see how it matters much.

If we were voting on likeability or cuteness Mahell Obama would be the last on the list. She is one angry woman.

She sure does not mean a lot of things when she is saying them.

Issues, yes, of course. Let’s leave all the personalities aside, drop the veiled remarks and smears, and run a campaign based on The Issues.

“Is anyone besides me really ticked off at the Clinton Delegates that are hiding and letting this whole scam at the convention stay in the closet????Posted by: HP Boston”
NO.

I won’t be voting for Obama. They are all just too ANGRY for me. Michelle needs to be stored in a basement somewhere until after the election. Everytime she escapes she opens her mouth and matches Biden on the Stupidity Scale.

Michelle “Omarosa” Obama is back with her thinly veiled American hatered. Wow, how we have fallen…….

Michelle said nothing that was hateful, racist or offensive in her talk. Some people just don’t seem to care about the issues. No wonder this country is in the shape it’s in. Come on people, use your heads.It isn’t about male or female, black or white. It’s about who can best lead this country and who can best reconcile our differences. Pay attention to the issues. It’s petty to show our fangs of hatred because of someone’s race, sex or age. We need to think about what is best for our country and we can heal our wounds.

yup. the repubs are truly the party that treats women with RESPECT, FAIRNESS, and ‘DEFERENCE’.
———————
True.
After all, they’ve been promoting the values of feminism for almost three weeks now!

Thanks to many of you for demonstrating Mrs. Obama’s points.
- Why are you denigrating her looks and intelligence?
- Why are you claiming that her Princeton thesis was about black separatism when it was not?
- How does anyone possibly see “swarmy thinly veiled attacks” in her remarks?
- It’s now considered “sexist” to question Governor Palin’s qualifications but sliming Mrs. Obama is just fine.
- A “Baby Mama” is an unwed mother. Mrs. Obama is definitely married. You have her confused with someone else.
- How can urging people to vote on issues be considered a “fluff” issue?

“MM Are you forgetting all the black ladies in the Bush administration???? HUH??!!?? Get real.”
Condi Rice and….
And….
Help me out here.

At the end of the day, people vote for the candidate they like. We knew Reagan wasn’t as smart or experienced as Carter, but we liked him, and voted accordingly. The same is true this year. People like McCain and want to find a reason to vote for him. Like it or not, and absent any serious mistakes, he will most likely win in November. The Wall Street melt down will be old news in a few days. Had it come up in late October it might have swayed the election.

John in Hartford, there is a video site out thre. If you go to it, you can watch Michelel Obama’s anti-American chitchats till sundown at least. GO ahead. Try to prove me wrong. Get ready, though. If you love your country, your going to have a hard time stomaching the thought of Michelle Obama representing the USA at home or abroad.

The issue is michelle that you are only proud of America when if serves your best interest.

It is very dissappointing to see some of the post that people put out there about both Michelle and Sarah. These women are both mothers who obviously care deeply for their families. I sit here asking myself how did we become such a mean group of people. People die to come live in America and we take everything for granted. I am a Democrat supporter, but I am looking at all the issues and honestly, who evers wins this election, I believe that they will do a better job than our current president. I think we need to focuss on what matters to our families and our communities and stop attacking these women. Those of you that have written hateful things about both women should be ashamed. Ask yourself, would I want someone to talk about my mother, daughter or wife in this way? I would say no. Show respect and stop writing these things on these blogs.

“John in Hartford, there is a video site out thre. If you go to it, you can watch Michelel Obama’s anti-American chitchats till sundown at least. GO ahead. Try to prove me wrong.”
Kitty, the famous Larry Johnson Whitey tape does not exist. There is no video of Michele out there making racist statement about white people.
“Get ready, though. If you love your country, your going to have a hard time stomaching the thought of Michelle Obama representing the USA at home or abroad. ”
Yes better to have a home wreakin, pill popping, charity stealing from, no property tax paying trophy wife.
And Cindy I am sorry for that. Your husband’s supporters have crossed the line.

“After all, they’ve been promoting the values of feminism for almost three weeks now!”
LOL

I wonder if Barack is embarrassed when he see’s her on the news?

Just think, Jerimiah Wright, the Obamas and William Ayers can plan bombings of the Pentagon right from the Oval Office.
That will be very convienient!!

One more thing to add to the list of Things I Like About Michelle Obama: By the looks of the remarks made by the bloggers here, she is a wonderful litmus test for shining a spotlight on horrible people. You all come crawling out of the woodwork at the mention of her name. Too bad you didn’t actually listen to her convention speech. She’s a remarkable woman with no drug problems or $300,000 earrings.

Todd Palin seems so gracious and appreciative for what he has. Michelle Obama just seems so angry and expects things to be given to her. Wait, Obama’s running for president not vice president. It’s so confusing when you watch his campaign.

RyanC
you know everything brought up about Obama and michelle is true your just biding time and praying that Obama doesnt get embarrassed again at the first debate on the 26th thats all you are still not credible today!

How can she bring up the amount of homes and then go to a fund raiser with the elitists at $29K a plate, that all have many homes, and think that sits well?
Like Obama is broke!
McCain’s money came from his in-laws.

Michelle Obama has no class. He was doing so good why did they let her out again?

Michelle and Barry both think Rev Wright, Pfleger, Rezko, and Ayers are great guys to hang out with.
That kind of makes me question their judgement.

Sally, when did he say that?

OOo Roger. Good one!
I mean, Barack Obama totally had a teleprompter when he did those several hundred interviews, those dozens of press meetings and of course those debates!

Kitty, your litter box is quite full of this so-called poop you are talking about. Either give us a link or not. If we google Michelle on Yootoob, there are lots of videos. Unless you are talking about her excellent speech at the DNC convention….

“Obama needs to be up by at least 10% for the race to be tied. Go back and look at most of the polls during the primaries and you will see that they were typically overstated for Obama”
Polling in the primaries was all over the place but other than NH can you name a race where he was up 10 in the polls taken right before the election only to lose?

BO needs to send Michelle away with Rev Wright until Nov 5th.
Then they can come out gloating and fist-bumping with Oprah, Ayers, and Keith Olbermann if BO wins.
They’ll thank all the suckers that fell for Obama’s crap and fake love for America.

Most of the people who have thus far commented here make me sick…that goes for conservatives and liberals. That’s what’s wrong with our country – we have our personal opinions, we don’t listen to each other and we are filled with hate for the other side.
It’s time to be civil.

staniam, there are 4,500. Why not stop being coy and tell us where this damning film is? I’m surprised that Fox hasn’t shown it yet.

staniam, is English your first language?

There’s a Hillary Effect that is similar to the Bradly Effect.
Hillary supporters that pretend they are voting for BO just to jack up his poll numbers, and fake unity.
But secretly they can’t stand BO or his supporters, and never forgave the DNC. Their ultimate revenge is to vote for McCain on Nov4th!

Good one Doug. Barack would respond by saying, uh,uh,uh, wait, I can’t see my teleprompter but I’m sure, uh, that I disagree, uh, with, uh you.

Really Doug? Radical people like Ayres hate white people?
While I do not condone what Ayres did, there are literally millions of white people who protested the Vietnam war ad were called radicals because well… we killed *millions* of Vietnamese people for no reason.
To say that Ayres hates white people is show complete ignorance for an entire chapter in US history.

Roger
did you see on Monday “barack” as the faithful call him(gag)did his side to sidfe chin up looking at the teleprmpter but stumbled anyway this guy is rattledand he thinks he might squeak by again with the banking meltdown… its too late for that too

Ryan C
someone was caught breaking into Palins email account and sure they have leveled off but your precious “barack” is still nearly tied in most states where he should be way ahead..we are trying to tell you but the bombshell on election day is Obama will be humiliated worse than any democratic candidate in history

MM
in ewvery speech….Obama never offered one on camera till the acceptance speech thats the truth… the advisors told him he had to offer specifics from now on and hes clearly uncomfortable with that… I know I watch every single event daily like a hawk so you cannot dispute me on that!

Think about this.
Michelle Obama person could be the First Lady of our country.
Unbelievable.

BITTER MICHELLE IS BACK! Biting like a mad snake; BUT she better watch out because SARAH Barracuda will eat her alive…….
ALASKA LOVES SARAH for the great work she has done reforming government to work for the citizens, and AMERICA IS FALLING IN LOVE WITH SARAH for her genuine sincerity, honesty and brilliant mind.
THE MCCAIN/PALIN TICKET HAS GIVEN HOPE FOR THE FUTURE OF AMERICA TO ALL THE 18 MILLION FORMER HILLARY SUPPORTERS who now have a very compelling reason to vote for the republican ticket, as a way to put their country first by electing a president that has the qualifications, experience and love for our country and at the same time elect a woman to the White House as equal partners in governance and leadership of our country.
Country First!

DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN/PALIN!

obamamama
well you arent doing very well for yours…Mccain isnt my candidate yet but Obama has done nothing to earn my trust…you can act liek you are beign principled but its baseless and we will enjoy you being humiliated on election day

Stanium,
Yea, it’s scarey. If heaven forbid there was a National Emergency, Barry would have to wake up his teleprompter person so he would, uh,uh, know uh, what to say.

ryan C
you dont know wht its about becaus your are self absorbed with your own little world that will crash on election day

obamamama
I dont have a candidate till I walk in the votign both… it most likely wont be obama and you all are doing a poor job of influincing people

obamamama
you are leaving because you are wrong.. fake compassion gets people nowhere so just go away

The assumption by many of you that Senator and Mrs. Obama could only have gotten into Ivy League Schools through affirmative action is laughable. You don’t get to be head of the Harvard Law Review through affirmative action.
Whites have had their own form of affirmative action for hundreds of years. It’s called “legacies.” McCain wouldn’t have gotten into the USNA had his Daddy not been an admiral. Once there, he managed to distinguish himself by graduating fifth from last in his class.
Our current President wouldn’t have gotten into Yale or Harvard had his grandfather not been a United States Senator from Connecticut and his father a Republican factotum.

Michelle, I love you.

Oh Michelle Obama, guess what? Sarah Palin is not “cute”. Puppies are cute. Little babies are cute.
Sarah Palin is gorgeous.
Your husband is pretty.
You? Well, you are cute at first until people get to know just how angry you are inside.

I really dig her words and I totally agree with her. Vote on the Issues–Vote for Nader!! That’s the only candidate in this campaign who really has focused on the issues and not personal assaults on members of the opposing ticket.

I LOVE MICHELLE OBAMA AND SHE IS BEAUTIFUL AND A CLASSY LADY. SHE IS WORKING HARD ALONG SIDE OF HER HUSBAND. SO WE CAN HAVE A BETTER TOMORROW AND A BETTER FUTURE FOR OUR CHILDREN. IF WE CAN’T DO THAT FOR OUR CHILDREN. WHO WILL? THE PEDOPHILES, PERVERTS AND VULTURES WILL BE WAITING. CAN YOU SEE A FUTURE IN THAT.

Ver: I understand your comments below. The problem is racisim is an issue. Obama subjecting himself and his family to a Rev Wright for many years is a problem. He’s running for President…the people that post to spew out venom will never be our President.
Ver’s post below:
I can’t believe how many of you are hateful bigots. You mask your own hatred by calling her names a minimizing her accomplishments?
She would make a wonderful first lady but honestly I think maybe they are too good for this country.
There is still so much bigotry and most of you are not honest enough with yourselves to admit your own shortcomings.

McCain at the RNC; “I did not know I loved my country so much untill I served in far away Vietnam“
OK can we say McCain is unpatriotic? I need an answer.

Beckie
that means you agree McCain is also one mean angry racist.

Oh that’s rich Michelle! Now, after 17-plus whatever months of your husband running on style over zero substance, now you want voters to consider issues??
Be careful what you wish for Michelle, if voters look too closely at the issues, your husband is toast!

I actually like Michelle Obama alot. She has a way of connecting with people. She is honest and sometimes this honesty has gotten her into problems with news media misinterpreting or taking a quote and making it derogatory. Actually quote that blasted across new headlines for long time was not true. She does indeed have alot of patriotism. Look at the story of her life. Great example of what hard work may get for a person.
I have checked and found she is one to lie. Quite nice when this is sort of rampant at present. Michelle knows and understands the struggles of low-middle class Americans so well. This is where Michelle came from. She had excellent grades and got scholarships to be accepted top ivy legue schools. Yes, she may have gotten some scholarship through affirmative action, but maybe not. It all depends on what category the schools place her in. Even if she was got in on affirmative action she had to maintain good grades. Michelle actually excelled. Then was accepted to graduate work at top ivy Law School. Graduated with excellent grades. She is accompplished lawyer. And she does it all – family plus work. Very intelligent lady.
Saw her on The View. She was so much fun to watch with all the ladies. Everyone loved her as she is so down to earth and fun. Very innovative and entertaining! All claimed her to be extremely smart competent lady. They said she was so willing to talk long time after show. Big hit with them!
This lady deserves a huge round of applause for her success.

Finally, people get to see and hear a woman speak who represents what educated and hopeful people want to hear instead of that same old rhetoric and self-serving comments from the Governor of Alaska and Ms. McCain. How refreshing…

John Copeland: In response to your post below.
The Democrate’s loaded the bill with unrelated pork barrel spending!
______________________________________
Krista – YES! We can say that McCain is un-patriotic! He has voted against – that is NOT FOR, DOES NOT SUPPORT – get it – support for our American veterans! Bills in Congress to help vets and their benefits were voted against, not for, by McCain!Do you keep up with the news and his record?

“”"The assumption by many of you that Senator and Mrs. Obama could only have gotten into Ivy League Schools through affirmative action is laughable. You don’t get to be head of the Harvard Law Review through affirmative action.”"”
___________________________________
You obviously do not know anything about Harvard.

Some people just need to be convinced that Michelle is a media-stereotypical angry, militant, Omarosa-like black woman, and product of a quota system. This need is to satisfy their own unmet needs. Do what you need to do, but this does nothing for the current morass this country is in (economic and otherwise.)

I used to think that Michelle was the only one in the family with such hate but after hearing Obama speak this morning I now realize he has more hate in him.

Slow news day Jake ? Michelle isn’t running for anything, who cares if she wants to start a cat fight with Palin. Maybe se got bored waiting for her kids to get out of their rich private school.

1. In 2006 PALIN DID SUPPORT THE BRIDGE TO NOWHERE WITH THE GOOD OLD BOYS. SHE LIED !!!! STILL LIES ABOUT THE BRIDGE!!!!
2. PALIN DID NOT SELL THE JET ON EBAY. SHE LIED !!!!
3. PALIN DID NOT FIRE HER CHEF, BUT SHIFTED HER AND SHE STILL COOKED FOR HER. SHE LIED !!!!
4. PALIN REFUSES TO COOPERATE IN CASE OF ABUSE OF POWER !!!! HER HUSBAND AND 7 FRIENDS WHICH SHE HIRED AS STAFF ALSO REFUSES TO HONOR SUBPEONA.
5. PALIN FIRED THE PUBLIC SAFETY COMMISSIONER WALT MONEGAN FOR NOT FIRING HER EX-BROTHER IN LAW.
6. PALIN LIED AND SAID SHE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
7. SHE REFUSED TO TURN OVER 1100 EMAILS CITING EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE.
8. WHEN PROOF CAME BY ONE OF HER EMPLOYEES, SHE DID NOT REPENT, OR ADMIT SHE LIED, SHE SAID SHE SEES HOW HER ACTIONS COULD BE SEEN AS BEING APART OF THESE CHARGES. SHE IS A LIAR. SHE IS NO PRESIDENT MATERIAL. SHE HAS NO INTEGRITY. THE MEDIA IS BIAS. YOU CAN ATTACK OBAMA, BUT NOT PALIN. YOU HAVE NO INTEGRITY.

Where was Obama’s wife when he ran against HC and the score at that point was likability?

Can we please get a story regarding McCain’s new selection to head up his Minority Outreach program: George “Macaca” Allen?
Now that’s leadership….I can laugh at!

Mr. America community organizer:
He made a speech in Berlin, so that he has experience in foreign policy. Did he also go on honeymoon to Paris?

GO HILLARY/MCCAIN

samantha
good point the Obamabots dont know how to use semantics, let alone the definition!

Mrs. Obama is correct about voting for what you think is right and best. A lot of people who are voting just because they like the person’s characteristics are just not right. If your going to vote, do it because you agree with most, not nesaceraly all, issues, even if your not to hot about them themselves. You should really vote upon issue standings, not likeability. At the end of the speech, she kind of lightly addresses McCain, without saying any names, sometimes I do that just to annoy my step dad when he does something I don’t like, I start talking to my mom about him, and with out saying it’s about him. Mrs. Obama says that we don’t all ask for yachts and cruises, we just want to get by the best way possible. Then at the end, she says I’m not saying there’s nothing wrong with having 3 or 4 houses (again, lightly talking about McCain), but some of us are just trying to keep one house. I think that’s really true for most of America, because, yeah, there are those people with a billion house they can afford, but there are a lot more, who can just barely, if at all, afford one house. That kind of hits the point of yeah, there is a middle and lower class, and not everyone is richly rich.

Rissa D
I think Michelle should be careful talkign about mccains houses when Obama is associated with rezko… nobodys goignt o vote on whether mccain has 8 or 9 houses anyway… which are really his wifes houses.. so how many does michelle have now… since she can hide that from the gen public

staniam,
I don’t think Nader messed up. Everybody can run. Ironically, I wasted my vote on Al Gore in 2000.

Some people apparently never learn. Michele Obama is an accomplice woman on her own right .Not an aged bimbo with plenty of money from the obscure business of her family.

uh… as BO would say.. “accomplice” would be a fruedian slip…Michelle is beign kept under wraps because shes ardly an asset

Riots in the streets if Obama does not win?
In other words, destroy the country if he is not elected?
So much for being a patriot, Obama …
So much about loving this country, Obama …
You would rather see this country destroyed if it does not elect you as their President?
God help us all if we elect this man as the President.

It seems that some people are absolutely detached from the reality.
America and the world are suffering from the blunders of Bush Administration
You want to talk about issues? Let’s talk about the stupid war on Iraq with thousands of brave Americans dead and injured. Let’s talk about the deregulation of the market and for consequence the collapsed economy. Lets talk of the billions dollars gifted to the oil companies resulting on today price of petrol.
What the ostrich and the Republicans have in common. Let me guess
Both hide their head on the sand and pretend everything is fine
What is important is not the color of the candidates.
What makes a President is the right Judgment. Be cool like cucumber in time of crisis. Not have 7 houses or family business valued at hundred of millions of dollars. Do not necessary have the temper to pick a fight but the temper to fight every day makes life of the community better.

America is a multi cultural, multi ethnic melting pot. America was built by the world. It’s a country of immigrants? But also remember Americas wealth was build also by African slaves Asian rails workers Latin Americans farm workers on the land of native Indians from white Europeans. Today this it is called THE AMERICAN DREAM.
Barack Obama is ready not only to lead Americans back to the American dream but also to be sure his family and your families and daughters and sons are part of this dream

People with income 250.000 $ or more, vote Republicans on 2000 and 2004. That is what the data confirm. In that case they should be prepared to pay for the economic chaos created by Bush decisions .Next time they should be more careful how they vote.
Just a minute McCain said the fundamentals of the economy are strong .Probably he was thinking about the family Business.
Was hilarious to watch Cindy McCain, when Senator McCain on his speech talks about the big salaries of the CEO’s, and how greedy they are.

It is really sad once analyze why McCain select Palin for running mate.
The only criterion was how he could win this election despite the best interest of the country and the American people
America and the world is suffering with the blunders of Bush Administration
The economy have crumple and the prosperity of many people are under risk not only in America but also worldwide.
Because America doesn’t stand alone world have turn into a very small place and everything is linked
Sarah Palin running for public office, sound overconfident, untrained. rigid and answering with out vacillation
Yes I am ready to be President like that job is similar to a manager position on the local Wal*Mart
The same person last month was saying if some can explain to me what the Vice President do?
John McCain and Sarah Palin promise of change: Is a change to Nowhere
This election is not only about some bridge in Alaska it is about all the bridges and roads in all the o United States because they are all crying out for repairs and maintenance. This is because for the last 8 years the Bush and the Republicans have spent enormous amounts to build up Iraq and they have forgotten about the needs of their own country.

mychoice
absolutely
yea I listened to Rush way back in 92 when Clinton got elected… he played the antagonist to George HW Bushthen and hes playing it now to Obama and Mccain simultaneously…I think Fox is more fair these days and that scares me but Obama scares me more!

foreclosure
Obama/Biden are no CLinton/Gore or Kennedy/johnson you just need to back of and vote against your beliefs because you will be sorry if Obama is elected no matter what you think now!

In MCCAIN, you have a man who would rather lose an election than see his country lose a war.
In OBAMA, you have a man who would first destroy his country if he loses the election ..
Now, which of this 2 men do you want to be your President, America …
MCCAIN WE KNOW …

Why is it that anyone who chooses not to vote for Obama because of, among other things:
His SKINNY teeny weeny resume,
His outrageous views and his vote for withholding succor and care for the living being expelled from it’s mother’s womb during a late term, partial birth abortion,
His repetitive selection of unsavory and unpatriotic associates,
His unpatriotic, possibly illegal and definitely unethical discussions with Canada about Nafta… saying one thing with a wink wink… and then denying it…
And his more recent discussions with
Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, asking him to delay the request for the withdrawal of US troops untila after the November elections?
Why is it that someone who hesitates voting for such an unscrupulous candidate….. is called “racist”?
If Obama were white and guilty of these
errors in judgement, I STILL wouldn’t vote for him!
MCCAIN AND PALIN
COUNTRY BEFORE BROKEN DUMBO-CRAT PARTY!

Here are some wonderful statements from genius Joe Biden:
- ´This is the first articulate clean smart black´
- ´Obama has not experience enough to be president´
- ´Hillary is better qualified than me to be VP´
An insider that has been in Washington longer than McCain, has suffered from two aneurisms, plagiarized a speech from Neil Kinnock, voted in favour of Irak´s war, requested Sadam Hussein to be eliminated and failed in his two attempts for the presidency.
Gosp, this is really ´change´. Haven´t we seen him before?

Emma
yea I heard that there were lung cancer rumors about Obama but that was on here so how reliable can that be!

Why McCain can’t put together to sentences and Sarah Plain give only scripted interviews? That indicates mental constipation and final state of plain stupidity

Sorry I was busy signing the patition for reveling the transparency into Palins moral actions. Republicans are asking questions about her real history.

Please folks look at the judgement as well of Mccain. As a candidate first thing he has done is picking a VP just to get him the women vote and he talks about country first.
Palin’s first work as a Mayor – Putting the city council into debts. When the land dispute is going on the court she orders to go ahead and build the sport comlex and the people of wasila end up paying 1.5 million dollars for her decision.
Trooper gate scandal and she thinks she is above the law.
Bridge to nowhere, when congress kills it, she says no we don’t need it and takes credit for that.
Put friends in the top places whether they are qualified or not.
the list goes on.
the choice is clear. Nobody knows what will be the stance of Mccain on economy next day. monday he says something, tuesday chages it, wednesday says something else.
If you thing u r better off then what u were 8 years ago vote for Mccain
else
Go Obama/Biden

Why do both Michelle and Barack Obama both CONSTANTLY use the word “folks.” It sounds so phony every time either CONSTANTLY use the word.

obama will cause a depression….Raise taxes on businesses…what do you think they will do, raise prices.
Then, there is his video of him saying he will gut the military!

Obama is probably worse than Carter–what a bloody nightmare those years were. Thankfully, people are catching on to the idiot known as Obama and will be voting him out. Personally, I think New York goes to Palin and McCain this year.

Well I guess we won’t be seeing Michelle Obama for awhile. Remember the last time she lashed out?

From grumpybumpy’s 5:16:39 PM post:
“America is in desperate times and those at the bottom are at the end of their patience. If (the wealthy) love America they won’t mind giving most of (their money) up, and also if they enjoy living, they won’t complain.”
Obama has certainly unleashed a monster with the class war he’s waged in order to get promoted to President. In addition, he’s tried to incite panic by upgrading our current economic situation into a full-blown Depression.
These are two examples of Obama’s “leadership” and of the followers he’s attracting. Is this the change you want to see for America?

“I would just encourage…folks who are undecided to look at the issues,” Michelle Obama said today

hip hop.

I hate this woman, she’s evil.

They are so many inherently evil people trying to veil their comments by saying they are voting for experience and on the issues. If you were voting on the issues and not against the color of skin. You would probably not be voting for McCain. Just be honest, history tells a story and the story has told and continues to tell is that alot of people don’t want progress. They want to hold on to the status quo. They want to continue to feel their unwarranted feelings of superiority! Get over it! America is changing!

Contrary to your close minded belief. NYC carpenter. If all they had to play on was race! They wouldn’t have gotten this far in the election process. We all know in this country hard work and education doesnt get you any where, right. How can they place race card? What exactly does playing the race card if you are a minority get you exactly. I guess white priviledge doesn’t call for playing the race card. It is just given. Blacks and minorities have always had to work for everything they have, nothing is given. We all know that there are so many things just handed over to Obama and his spouse due to playing the race card. I guess going to Harvard graduating and become the first minority presidential nominee is all based on race. Get off of your condescending horse, buddy. I am voting for change not for what is familiar or what looks like me. Open your mind a little further. People all believe what they want. Perception is reality. Maybe you should expand your mind and horizons.

Wow – C – I thought you were more intelligent than that.
What was I thinking, you’re voting for inexperienced Obama.

That’s because Obama stands for everything that is not American, whether it be African-American or otherwise. Obams is one for thing,
Obama.
“Country First”

Hey Joe! Your last name wouldn’t happen to be HORN would it? You’re in TEXAS RIGHT! USA USA! He stands for everything not American. You say! Whether it be African American? SO African Americans arent American! LOL! I guess Cauc-ASIANS are the only ones that can ascribe to being American right! Okay I see the caliber and threads of the person I am responding to. YOU WIN JOE! YOU ROCK! GO JOE!! USA USA USA!!

I wouldn’t exactly agree…Obama/Biden’s rhetoric has been heavy on issues and detail, while McCain is out there pimping Palin’s “hockey mum” and “small town girl” stuff.
Don’t forget McCain’s own, “I fought in Vietnam! I’m a POW! I didn’t break under the Viet Cong! I’m a POW!”
Of course his military service cannot be disregarded but he hasn’t been detailing his issues lately and is too pleased at any opportunity to swift boat someone to distract voters.

Are these Republicans serious? and this “country first” slogan is getting old…no pun intended. But for a man who picked his VP solely as a political pick, even your beloved Karl Rove says so.
You honestly think that McCain and Palin have the intelligence and judgment to proposes packages to repair this economy. I didnt know they taught that kind of stuff at the Univ. of Idaho.
It’s funny…under Reagan our country went in to deep debt. Under Bush I we fought a war and the economy was no good. Under Bush II we fought another war and the economy went back in to shambles. Whats going to happen if McCain gets elected? A man that votes w/ bush 90% of the time is going to buck the trend and up start this very economy he has admitted he has little knowledge about. He said he would fire head of the SEC! He doesnt even have that power.
McCain is clueless…

Now, now, who’s placing the country first, hmm?
“The poll found evidence of concern about Palin’s qualifications to be president, particularly compared with Senator Joseph Biden Jr. of Delaware, Obama’s running mate.
Nearly two-thirds said they would be concerned if McCain, 72, could not finish his term and Palin had to take over, a figure that cut across party lines.
In addition, 75 percent said they thought McCain had picked Palin to help him win the election, rather than because they thought she was well-qualified to be president. By contrast, 31 percent said they thought that Obama had picked Biden to help him win the election, while 57 percent said it was because they thought he was well-qualified for the job.”
-On the New York Times/CBS poll. Quote from article on the International herald Tribune

Oh? Palin doesn’t know who started the Ossetian conflict (something that is COMMON knowledge) and didn’t even know the Bush Doctrine was some sort of policy. Obama is on the Senate Foreign Policy Committee.
And what have you got to say about McCain’s saying he “puts his country first?”
And I thought he said he would rather lose an election then put his country at risk?

If you’re a patriot, you don’t have to shout that into everyone’s ear all the time. People can see your actions and then make their judgements from there.
And the poll shows what the people, including some Republicans, think about McCain’s choice of Palin- that it wasn’t based on “Country first”.

I was showing a distinction of how Obama puts Obama first. That is why I added the slogan “Country First”
Next time I will choose more wisely what I say. Sorry, I don’t have the privilege of using a tele-prompter for my speeches or my writing.

Again, I am trying to make a point about the tele-prompter and how bad Obama will do when it comes time for the debates, when there will be no tele-prompter.
Did anyone see him when him and McCain answered questions in the church?
Obama could not find an answer and he stumbled on every question. Unlike McCain who was sure of his responses.
Without a tele-prompter.
Can not wait for the debates.

You can say what you like. Obama clearly shows he has substance. You can go to his website and find detailed plans on what he intends to do, unlike McCain who told reporters to “find it on his website” instead of answering a question.
Even if Obama messes up the debate, (which I highly doubt he will) from what he’s shown me so far, he clearly knows what direction he wants to take America in-and it’s a good one. McCain however, flipped flopped at least three times in the space of one day over on the economy.
Please also enlighten me as to how McCain had put his country first by picking Palin.

I don’t care if Obama is black; I am not voting for him because of his stance – he is a far-left socialist! His plan to significantly raise taxes on “the rich” while cutting taxes on everyone else makes him sound like a “hero of the working class”, but what do you think the result will be? The rich own the businesses which employ us. Higher taxes mean higher expenses. This will NOT cause businesses to hire more people or create jobs – it will cause them to downsize or even close down and move overseas where expenses are lower. Since a successful business means higher taxes, there will be no motivation to expand economically.

about the teleprompter. you try addressing an audience and read from a teleprompter and make is look genuine. try
i see your candidate trying it and he looks like he is in excruciating pain …reading like a third grader.
but you know he needs it because he will go off message and only God knows where he would end. He’s losing his marbles you know…. no no no not a swipe at mccain … just reality. he is at the age where that happens. you cant make him superman by nominating him for president.

Thanks Rick
Happy Voting

How many time am I going to have to say this?
Fact is, unlike Obama, McCain has a higher chance of not being able to finish his term. A VP pick is not just to help shore up your credentials, it also to be a potential president. It already tells me something about McCain’s judgement if he decided to pick Palin. Obama, on the other hand, picked someone who is solid on foreign policy and experience and whom he can rely on for advice-and whom he said he didn’t want to be agreeing with him all the time.
McCain has flipped-flopped so many times in one day, wants to make tax cuts permanent even when we are stuck with a huge govt deficit. He still wants to continue the wars in the Middle-East but doesn’t have a way to pay for it. Iraq is running into the trillions now. Guess who is currently picking up the tab?
China, who is charging interest on our credit card, and they’re going to ask for the bill one day. Bush thought he could wage a cheap war, against all logic. During the World Wars, the Korean and Vietnam wars, taxes were raised to cope with the spending, and America managed to make it out without a gigantic deficit and ailing economy.

sally… how true. All the Dem (former Hillary supporters, now McCain voters) that I know brag about how when they are called in a poll and are asked “Can we count on your support for Obama?”, (or some such question) they say very sweetly yes but they have every intention of voting for McCain. Should be a very interesting election. Ya gotta love the people that believe the polls!

Voting for McCain because of Palin,
How do you feel about Palin saying she would like to overturn Roe vs Wade?
P.S A VP pick should only solidify your support for candidate, not be the deciding factor.

BO asks the voters to get into the face of their neighbors and argue for him.
BO is like a wimpy brainy kid in middle school that outsmarts other kids into fighting for him.
Because he doesn’t have the guts to fight he instigates then runs away–then blames others for what happened.
He reveals his character more and more everyday.

Obama supporters, You can say whatever you want, half of the nation won’t listen to you including 30% of Hillary supporters as well. Too late to take back what you had done to Hillary and her supporters. Not all Hillary supporters are braiwashed by Obama!They are not stupid!

Omentum, debates, wait for the debates,
can’t wait.

Better judgement? Why did he snub Hillary Clinton? You know he’s going to pay for that one.

Sally, please don’t insult other women. Many of them that supported Hillary supported Hillary for what she FOUGHT for, not because she was a woman.
Everything Palin and McCain stand for is a polar opposite to what Hillary does.
Palin thinks Roe vs Wade should be overturned.
And why is it when McCain was leading in the polls, the McCain camp said: Hah! Women are supporting Palin!
And now that the latest polls have reported that those independents and white women that went over to Palin have now swung back to Obama, you guys say that’s because some Hillary supporters are lying?

Not even Hillary will put down Sarah.
That’s respect.

Joe, from what I see and hear about Hillary Clinton, she would make a great president, but not a vice-president. She’s more of a leader in her own right, and she herself, it seems to me, may not be someone who would want to accept the VP role. She’d have to fall in line with Obama, and Obama probably knew that that wouldn’t be good for either of them. They’d most likely end up arguing over policies, since some of their viewpoints are different-not to the extent in comparison with McCain, though.
Now about your country first thing, sure, Obama could’ve picked Hillary if he wanted to make sure he won, to hell with whether that would be good in the long run. But he didn’t.
If Obama were sexist and looked down on Hillary, I don’t think he would’ve any qualms about using her as VP to win the election.

Grey Matter, I would have voted for Hillary Clinton any day of the week, over either of the candidates. She has the experience to lead the country.
Way more experience than Obama. The Dems got it wrong.

Joe.
I think Biden was the smart pick and still do.
But Ms. Wasilla NO.
She is crumbling before our eyes.
What does she have to hide JOE. why is she being protected from the media JOE
Why won’t she participate in the troopergate investigation and prove to the world that she is above board. why wont hubby participate… what’s the problem….. dont she know by not addressing the cloud still looms over her head.
this tells me that there was some corruption going on there because this course of action of not participating would be less of two evils.
she came on the scene full of lies and now she is obstructing justing.
sound like the present adminsitration to me.
happy voting joe.

Palin, offered the one who got fired another position, he declined.
That’s all that they will find.
They are delaying only because it is a distraction from what is important.

it is funny when you talk about barack speeches and the tele prompt just this week alone Mccain should have kept his mouth shut just look at the polls. Republicans has hurt america for the past 8 years it is time for a new look in the white house.

Omentum, it sounds like you are still trying to convince yourself about Joe Biden. He wasn’t the best pick.
Joe Biden said it himself.

Omentum, the answers you will get from troopergate are not the answers you are expecting. Those answers are only going to solidify Palin’s integrity.
She offered the guy a job that didn’t have any financial responsibilities, he declined. That is the answer.
What happened to her emails, Oh! there wasn;t evidence, story dropped.
Just like troopergate.
debates, omentum, debates.

I guess Michelle OBama can spout trash from the handlers just like her husband.
The little enuendo just under the surface. What a joke these folks are.

well Joe
lets proceed
it think Palin needs a little solidification of her integrity right now.
with her
bridge to nowhere lie
ebay lie
mansion cook lie
and her
bush doctrine flub
georgia unprovoked flub
“see russia from her house” foreign experience.
SO JOE LETS PROCEED. I want to see her succeed. honestly. I REALLY DO. but if she is a flake. SORRY. NEXT!

You fire the guy so you can put someone else in to do your dirty work. Believe me if she would not have gotten tapped to be vp. a year or so down the line (maybe soon) this new guy would have fired her ex-brother in law.
you can bet on it.
but now since so much attention is on it she can do it now

Tony Rezko
that is a slum lord in Chicago
His trial took place during the Primaries. Rememember. No implications on Obama (whether it was or wasn’t really some ties there) it is put to bed and from a legal standpoint we move.
NOT SO FOR TROOPERGATE.
I wish troopergate could go forward too.
hmmmmm AMERICA IS WONDERING WHAT’S GOING ON.

WHO IS BLACKWELL… .don’t know
but I know who sara palin is (now I do) and I hear she is obstructing justice.
not good .. not good.

Who is senator stevens.

has this guy made it to the MSM… SCHOOL ME JOE. WHO IS HE
I am sure he is not a significant character since I have never heard of him…
heard alot about keating five though
the carlyle group … heard a lot about those things .. but you know they didn’t stop mccain and his mentor gwb to become prominent individuals …. i am sure this guy you are talking about won’t be a show stopper for obama either

Joe
you are doing the witch hunt for me. just found that there is no story there with the blackwell
just more gop-style character assassination. hmmm to be expected. pathetic but expected.
so sad guys. issues please

Don’t worry. We see that. Plus since McCain chose Palin, several women’s rights groups have been backing Obama/Biden.
Wonder why?
Maybe because they actually have a record for fighting for women’s rights, such as the equal wages bill, bills to protect women from domestic violence and so on.

Grey Matter, you are correct about a lot of issues. And the vote from women will be critical, but I think the backlash from snubbing Hillary Clinton will at least be a wash.

His race has nothing to do with it,
he is inexperienced.
Look – anyone who votes for Obama just because of his race is racist.
AND, anyone who votes for McCain because of his race is racist.
Time4Change to change your mind.

If Palin gets in Office she can’t do anything about Roe v. Wade, that is a supreme court decision.

Joe
Yes troopergate…it is an issue. how do you handle problems… that is an issues.
trooper gate – you run from them ….. that is an issue – bad
rev wright – you address them ….. that is an issue – good
i am more confident in my vote now
OBAMA BIDEN

Omentum, I never mentioned Rev. Wright.

Grey Matter, understood. I think McCain will only be a four year term.
Hillary will run in 2012, and we will all be ok.

I don’t know if the US (and the rest of the world too) can survive four more years of a snowballing deficit, an economy run into the ground and a streched military. There are other factors such as the rise of China and Russia.
Plus four more years is such a long time…
What’s to say Obama won’t give Hillary a position in his cabinet?
Are you the same Joe or another Joe? :o

They’re footing the trillion over dollar bill for Iraq though. And charging interest.
They’ll be expecting us to pay back their loan.

Once the Iraq war is over, and we have rebuilt their country, they will owe us.
They are very rich in oil, they will foot that bill, not us.
Afganistan and Pakistan, that’s another sstory.

If i want to choose between judgment vs. experience, I definitely choose judgment.
And for sure, in economy, Maccain has zero, or minus judgment.
Look which kind of advisers he has…. Phil Gramm was his economy Guru until he made a whiner comment.

I wish it were that easy in Iraq, but I don’t see that happening anytime soon…
The surge has contained the violence for now, but in the long run, I don’t think Iraq will be stable for a while.
If you look at our history and the history of European countries, the transition to democracy from theocracy, monarchy, dictatorship and whatnot was bloody and took place over hundreds of years in civil wars and conflicts. But yet our democracies are the most stable ones compared to Asian countries. No foreign interference helped throw out a rogue govt, our people rebelled themselves in the Anglo-American war.
In a democracy, you need many other institutions to support it. A free media is one. An open culture is another.
Such things cannot be transplanted, and I think that is the mistake we made. We underestimated the sectarian divisions that were hidden by Saddam’s iron grip on power. Iraq was first under colonial rule, then under a dictatorship. People’s mindsets also need to evolve to keep in step with the times to support a democracy. A sudden paradigm shift like what we did in Iraq has left it with shaky foundations.
In the US, we transitioned slowly ourselves without a sudden regime change. To rise up to fight and rebel, I think, people’s mindsets had to believe in democracy, which is why the democratic institutions in our country are more strongly upheld and preserved.

Michelle made unnecessary comment.
This is her 2nd gaffe.
Already americans started to recognize Palin.
her favorablity is dropping and unfavorability is going up after 2 weeks.

Well, even if the US can’t please everyone in the world, I believe we can make less enemies.
True, there will be pockets of radicals out there. But we can dry up support for them by giving them less reasons to find fault with us. They feel the US victimised Iraqis. They feel the US unfairly sided with Israel over the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Palin said not so second-guess Israel-something we should never do. We may support them, but we cannot just close our eyes when Israel sometimes indiscriminately caused loss of civilian life.
Those places in the middle east, I think, for them to find peace will require a social evolution over a long time, which we will not be able to see happening right now.

Grey Matter, agreed. The middle east is mess. Personally, I don’t think we should have been there in the first place.

As a 47 yr old woman, mother of two and business owner I have been a democrat all my voting life. I waited with baited breath for Obama to pick his running mate. Depressingly, what was chosen was an aging male who doesn’t speak my language. Sarah Pallin is what we needed on OUR side. She is my demographic. As I find myself pondering the election, I will vote with my Party. But, Sarah makes it hard for me to even remember Obama’s running mates name….is it Joe?

Well, Lisa L, Palin would like to overturn Roe vs Wade. Would you be okay with that?

I like Michelle, and I’m really tired of people bad mouthing her.. You need to look at yourself before you put someone else down. She was just saying to people that they should make the choice that’s in there best intrests. Most of the people who are pro McCain sound kind of crazy I haven’t heard a logical or intelligent argument based on any kind of facts at all. Obama isn’t a friend of John Ayers the guy wasn’t even born yet when he was blowing up buildings. If you want a creepy old man who keeps saying “My Friends” “My Friends” and then lying through his teeth to be your president then go ahead be my guest! Who the hell says they are your friend and then lies to you again and again. I think Obama is way more capable and experience doesn’t matter if it’s experience making decisions over the years that got us into the awful place we are right now.

Middle East? The middle east has been at war for thousands of years BEFORE America was ever born! We can’t concentrate on making them like us, it won’t happen, they don’t want to BE like us (but) many in the middle east would prefer to see the west blown off the planet… I for one will always remember 9/11 and crying as I watched my TV and the events unfold. Too many Americans are forgetful of that day. Do I think Obama is the man for a secure America? Not no but hell no.

A parable for Hillary Clinton voters now supporting McCain/Palin:
Bob lives in a small town that has only two grocery stores, Store A and Store B. Store A has fresh food, friendly service, and reasonable prices. Store B has rotten food, rude employees and overcharges.
Both stores usually use blue grocery bags that Bob likes because they match his eyes.
Bob naturally shops at Store A.
One day, while at the check-out line he finds that Store A has changed from blue bags to green bags. Bob is not particularly fond of green. He leaves his groceries in the cart and storms out of the store, cursing the manager.
He spends the next four years eating rotten, overpriced food bought from rude people, but gets to carry them home in pretty blue bags.

With all the “nastiness and lies” coming from the McCain camp is it any wonder that the Obama camp is trying to hit back a little. As for Michelle Obama opening her mouth, this woman has a LAW degree from Princeton U. that she WORKED hard to get, unlike someone else I know. Michelle doesn’t have to use “veiled” comments. How about little Ms. Ice-cap? Each and every time she opens her mouth all that comes out is nastiness and lies…looks aren’t everything…most people will choose “class and honesty” over appearance which little Ms. Icecaps has NONE of….

Vote on Issues, Not Likeability and Attractiveness – makes sense to us, but don’t tell Davis its personalities and appearances that count for the McCain’s Campaign not the issues!

Obama – “we should decide that based on our self-interest”
A far cry from “Ask not what your Country can do for you, but what you can do for your Country”
Stop the Entitlement Attitude by voting for McCain

Obama got her house the Democrat way. A crook gave it to her husband in return for political favors.

Greendale: Michelle Obama does not have the speaking voice of Hillary, Cindy or Palin. They walk, speak and dress like first ladies. Michelle would need training. And it was already stated if Obama wins this election she has to get a makeover and stay quiet.

It is good to be a little humble and respectful to the constituents now that her husband desperately needs womens` votes….a few mistakes as well reminds us
we are all fallible !! Great breaks !!
