Obama well-spoken, terribly misguided,with a narcissistic personality disorder--due to unstable family upbringings, with lack of a true father figure. His mind is horribly susceptible to a perverse, misguided radical view on a distorted America, swimming in moral nuance. His racial hang ups drive him to validate his own identity, which causes him to believe in a foolish impractical ideology that is Marxism for reparations. Poor choice of friends. Charisma w/o character. He is devoid of morals.
if Palin would end up a heart beat away from the presidency. She is a big ball of fluff with no particular knowledge to bring to the office. Her appeal is charisma all the time stirring fear. She has a shallow message with nothing to offer regarding solutions to any problem which she very rarely addresses. Her response at the rallies is no particular indication that she has a big approval rating overall, afterall they would be mostly attended by regular Republican supporters. Her awful diction would not be a good representative for the U.S. after we have already had 8 years of something like it, although she makes Bush look like a scholar.
The leftists love to hate Sarah:
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - An effigy of U.S. Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin hanging by a noose as part of a Halloween display drew complaints on Monday, but local officials said the homeowner was covered by free speech rights.
A mannequin dressed to resemble the Alaska governor, with her trademark beehive hairdo and glasses, was hung by the neck from the eaves of the home in famously liberal West Hollywood.
On the roof, a mannequin of Republican presidential candidate John McCain, protruded from the chimney surrounded in flames, holding his head as he was apparently burned alive.
I am more worried about Barrack Hussein Obama, with no experience being the President, and then his side kick who cannot spell, and who is giving us six month till doom and gloom under a BHO Presidency, being a heart beat away as well..God Help the USA
'She is a big ball of fluff with no particular knowledge to bring to the office. '
So you have been told...
She has more experience and a better record then Obama and she is running for VP, not president. 'A big ball of fluff with no particular knowledge to bring to the office? Obama was in the senate for 143 days before he decised he was ready to become president. God help us if he gets in.
In today's New York Times, Glenn Reynolds takes on the tricky issue of the proper role of the Vice President. Sarah Palin's comments on the Veep's constitutional role in the Vice Presidential debate have been denounced by some, but Reynolds says she was right to emphasize the Vice President's role as part of the legislative branch. As we noted here, it was Joe Biden, not Palin, who mangled the Vice President's constitutional status.
So far, that's not controversial. But Glenn goes further: he argues that the Vice President is properly viewed only as part of the legislative branch, and that it is unconstitutional for the President to delegate executive duties to the Vice President, as has happened routinely in recent administrations.[...]
We should consider ourselves lucky if it's only Vice Presidents who exercise arguably-unconstitutional executive powers. At least they are elected officials. A far more disturbing phenomenon was Bill Clinton's delegating executive authority to his wife. That didn't work out so well, which doesn't necessarily mean we've seen the last of the idea.
'(America is) just downright mean.' -- Michelle Obama
'For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. And I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction.' -- Michelle Obama
'The truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more.' -- Michelle Obama
'Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed.' -- Michelle Obama
own statements speak for themselves for god's sake. She's one dumb Alaskan. If it weren't for the fact that she is good looking, she'd have been run out of town by now with her ridiculous rantings.
Election 2008: Objective journalism the loser
Michael Graham By Michael Graham
Did you see that amazing video obtained by the Los Angeles Times of Sen. Barack Obama toasting a prominent former PLO member at an Arab American Action Network meeting in 2003? The video in which Obama gives Yasser Arafat’s frontman a warm embrace, as Bill Ayers look on?
You haven’t seen it? Me, neither. The Los Angeles Times refuses to release it.
And so an incriminating video of Obama literally “palling around” with PLO supporters becomes one more nail in the coffin of “objective journalism.”
Alas, the obit for objective reporting has been buried - along with the stories about Obama’s 2001 support for court-imposed “redistribution of wealth” and Joe Biden’s latest gaffe. For the record I am not a journalist. I’m an opinion writer and talk show host. But I admire reporters tremendously. I married one. My oldest son is named for the great H. L. Mencken.
So it is particularly heartbreaking for me to see the death of objective journalism. And believe me - it is stone cold dead. Sacrificed on the altar of service to Barack Obama.
Former New York Times [NYT] columnist and veteran newspaperman Michael Malone knows it.
“I’ve begun - for the first time in my adult life - to be embarrassed to admit what I do for a living,” he said.
Malone is disturbed by the “shameless support” journalists have been giving the Obama campaign. Where’s the hardball coverage for Obama they give McCain? Instead, journalists are “actively serving as attack dogs for the [Obama/Biden] ticket.”
“That isn’t Sen. Obama’s fault,” Malone points out. He blames the media, whose job it is to give Obama a thorough vetting “and has systematically refused to do so.” [..]
Facts? Who needs ’em, when we’ve got Obama’s magic tax plan to promote and an uppity Alaska governor to trash?
At the risk of violating union rules, allow me to do a bit of reporting: A new study by the Pew Research Center found that, while 71 percent of Obama’s recent media coverage has been “positive” or “neutral,” almost 60 percent of McCain’s coverage over the same period has been “decidedly negative.”
And how much positive coverage did the media give McCain? Fourteen percent.
The American people have figured this out. “By a margin of 70 percent to 9 percent,” another Pew study reported, “Americans say most journalists want to see Obama, not John McCain, win on Nov. 4.” The percentage of Americans who rate reporters as objective and not favoring either candidate? Eight percent.
McCain's campaign got desperate and started with all the mud slinging which turned a lot of people off. They spent so much time in the mud and not enough time on policies that they went in their own nests. Too bad for McCain that he was saddled with the barracuda 'cause maybe this election would be taking a somewhat different route.
It isn't slinging mud if it's true.
palin would br a better choice than mcain he can talk till hes blue in the face that obama will increase taxes what are you willing to put in the wallet uncle scrooge mcain-palin knock some sense into this guy-even when obama wins and goes back on his word and raises taxes-all they willremember of mcain is uncle scrooge mcain-no tax cut-uncle scrooge mcain-palin-loosers,offering nothing to the people,people arent stupid,you deserve to lose-pathetic.
Palin has lied twice about Madelaine Albright's statements and twisted them around. She has spread her own wealth around in Alaska, and now she's at odds with McCain and the Grand Old Party. She's also just stopped from calling Obama a communist. She is so ridiculous, she's not even worth commenting any more about.
I know you don't want to lie to anyone (right) but you forgot to mention:
That McCain has his own connection to Khalidi.
In 1993, McCain became chairman of the International Republican Institute. He still chairs that respected organization.
That same year, Khalidi helped found the Center for Palestine Research and Studies, self-described as “an independent academic research and policy analysis institution” created to meet “the need for active Palestinian scholarship on issues related to Palestine.” (Its archived Web site is HERE.)
Khalidi was on the board of trustees through 1999.
According to tax returns, the McCain-chaired IRI funded the organization Khalidi founded and served on to the tune of $448,873 in 1998.
Just wanted to make this posting 'fair and balanced'..
Stupid, stupid, stupid, and she is saying she wants to be in the running for President in 2012. Guess she thinks if McCain wins, he won't want to run again, and, of course, he would REALLY be too old then. Anyway, she's nuts if she thinks she could actually be in the running. And the above poster has the accurate info. Wonder why McCain's camp didn't get the memo on that one.......campaign leaders are lacking big time.
So a foundation that McCain was a member of STUPIDLY gave a foundation that he was a member of a grant.
Does that rise to the level of attending and speaking at a party where anti-semitic rants were being offered in tribute... where close personal friends of Khalidi, William Ayers and Bernedine Dhorn domestic terrorists were attending? Obama says Ayers was 'just a guy in my neighborhood', Why then does he keep turning up in Obama's life?
Here, the part of the article you found that you didn't post:
'Asked to respond to this seeming contradiction, McCain-Palin spokesman Michael Goldfarb writes, “It's long been clear that Obama and Khalidi have a close relationship -- that they were frequent dinner companions. It is another in a series of questionable associations, but it is not the focus of our request that the LA Times release this tape. It's clear from the Times story that the evening featured speeches that were anti-Semitic in tone and anti-Israel in nature. As our initial statement said, 'This campaign wants to know how Barack Obama responded to that hate-speech, whether he was mingling with Ayers, who he once described as 'just a guy in my neighborhood,' and anything else that might be of interest to voters now deciding who to support in this election.'”
(Goldfarb is referring to two speakers at Khalidi's 2003 farewell party: 'a young Palestinian American (who) recited a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism in its treatment of Palestinians and sharply criticizing U.S. support of Israel. If Palestinians cannot secure their own land, she said, 'then you will never see a day of peace,'' and another who 'likened 'Zionist settlers on the West Bank' to Osama bin Laden...'
McCain happened to CHAIR the IRI, and the funds appropriated weren't exactly small. Didn't he do any investigation or just go with the flow?
His campaign constantly trys to weasel out of all his and Palin's shady dealings and associations with lame excuses. McCain's past isn't exactly lily white with the way he treated his first wife, having multiple affairs which he did confess to in his book, which makes a questionable lack of honesty and character. Where else has that showed up?
Happy will be the day that I don't hear Palin's whiny voice and rotten diction. She would be a true embarrassment to this country. She makes Bush look rather somewhat intelligent. She is a riot inciter to the nth degree spewing out half truths and distorted statements.
