It Was Only A Matter of Time

And anyone who thought differently was not paying attention at best, and was horribly naive at worse. Who here remembers how strongly Obama came out against FISA, threatening to filibuster it? Then what did he do? Voted AGAINST his Party to grant the telecom industry immunity. I could go on and on about his changes in position, but no doubt, you have heard all (or most) of them by now.
Which all leads me to this. Obama has backtracked on yet another one of his promises. I think the title of this article pretty much gives it away: Obama Says He Won’t Try to Repeal ‘Don’t Ask’ on His Own. Yep. I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so. Here’s more of the article:
Democrat Barack Obama said if elected president he would not try to repeal the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy about homosexuality on his own.Obama said in an interview to run in gay publications Thursday that he wants to work with military leaders to build a consensus on removing the ban on openly gay service members in the armed forces.
He said that would not be accomplished by attaching a signing statement to a military spending bill, a process that President George W. Bush has used to set other military policies.
Uh huh. Because it has not been made ABUNDANTLY clear what bad law this is. Because other countries have not shown, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, and transsexuals can serve OPENLY in the military with no problems. Unless, of course, you are saying their military personnel are better than ours. Is that what you are saying, Backtrack?? Maybe you need to take a little listen to this man:
I might add, it is not like the Service members Legal Defense Network has not done a ton of research on this issue, or that General Wesley Clark, the former SUPREME ALLIED COMMANDER, said “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” doesn’t work. Hey, maybe THAT’S why Obama threw him under the bus - because he believes that GLBT people should be able to serve their country proudly and openly.
Obama continued:
“I want to make sure that when we revert ‘don’t ask, don’t tell,’ it’s gone through a process and we’ve built a consensus or at least a clarity of what my expectations are so that it works. My first obligation as the president is to make sure that I keep the American people safe and that our military is functioning effectively,” Obama said. “Although I have consistently said I would repeal ‘don’t ask, don’t tell,’ I believe that the way to do it is make sure that we are working through a process, getting the Joint Chiefs of Staff clear in terms of what our priorities are going to be.” (Emphasis Mine.)“Don’t ask, don’t tell” is intended to keep the military from asking recruits their sexual orientation. In 1993, President Bill Clinton implemented the policy, a compromise after he was unable to make good on his campaign pledge to open the military to gays.
Well, what the hell do you mean by that, Obama (bold parts)?? Safety? Effectiveness? Functioning properly? What the hell does that mean??? That if you let gay people serve their country openly, that those things might be in jeopardy??
By the way, there was a consensus with all of the Democrats running this year - “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” DOES NOT WORK. It is offensive. Congresspeople have been working on this for SOME time. They have been speaking out on it for some time. Rep. Susan Davis of San Diego (big military base there, by the way), has been a very outspoken critic of “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.” Or how about Rep. Patrick Murphy, a veteran, maybe what HE has to say will help you:
This Congressman, an Iraqi War veteran, is saying it it WRONG, and it diminishes our military for people to claim it cannot function if LGBT people serve openly, Obama, you mealy mouthed, backtracking, spineless jerk!
Oh, but wait. There’s MORE! Don’t think this is just limited to “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.” Oh, no. How about the Defense of Marriage Act?
Obama also declined to commit to have his attorney general support a lawsuit against the Defense of Marriage Act, which denies federal recognition of same-sex marriages and gives states the right to refuse to recognize such marriages. Obama said he’s not sure the 1996 law would be overturned by the courts and he prefers a legislative solution.
Now, to all of you who keep trying to convince me what a great guy Obama is, and how he will do SO much for my community, SCREW YOU. Screw you for not looking more closely at his associates, for blowing it off when he toured all around SC with Donnie McClurkin, the “CURED” homosexual. Screw you for not paying attention when Obama asked Gavin Newsome to throw a fundraiser for him, but REFUSED to allow Newsome to have a photo taken with him because of Newsome’s support of Gay Marriage. Never mind that Newsome himself is STRAIGHT. SCREW YOU for ignoring Obama’s CLOSE relationship with IL State Senator, The Rev. James Meeks, an actively anti-gay minister, the one to whom Obama went the day after he won his Senate Seat. SCREW YOU for brushing off his CONSTANT refusal to talk to our press organizations. It was only at the VERY end of the primary that the Advocate finally got him to sit down with him, and only then because HILLARY CLINTON had come out saying she would grant us FULL FEDERAL BENEFITS. SCREW YOU for treating like shit the person who CONSISTENTLY met with our press, who marched in our parades (Obama has never marched in ONE), who assured us she would not just meet with us when she was a candidate, but when she was PRESIDENT. SCREW YOU. And SCREW YOU, Philadelphia Gay News, for saying shit like this in your interview with Obama:
You are the most LGBT-friendly candidate running for president in history. Are you concerned that John McCain and the Republicans might use this as a divisive issue as they did in 2004?
Especially after you had REAMED him for NOT speaking to the Gay Press!! What total BULLSHIT!!! What total and COMPLETE hypocrites!!!
Screw YOU, Meliisa Etheridge, for singing at the Democratic Convention and validating this invalid candidate - since when do we celebrate SELECTING a nominee instead of ELECTING one?? Screw YOU, Jodie Foster, for going to that ridiculous Hollywood fundraiser for Obama the other night - you finally start to admit you are a lesbian, and THIS is what you do?? Great. Just freakin’ great. I guess it was the “cool” thing to do, so there you go…
SCREW YOU PEOPLE who voted against your OWN SELF-INTEREST AGAIN for what - the “trendy” guy with no legislative record, and nothing but “words” for our community, and who has demonstrated by his ACTIONS that he doesn’t GIVE a shit about us! What the HELL were you thinking, Human Rights Campaign, for not endorsing the woman YOU said was LIGHT YEARS ahead of YOUR OWN THINKING on our issues for OBAMA?
If you don’t think this is a clear indication of HOW LITTLE Obama will do for our community, you are a fool. If he reneged on his other major stances, what the HELL makes you think he won’t throw US under the bus already? He has already started. Actually, he started long ago. Thanks SHITLOADS for being so incredibly naive, and supporting HIM over the one person who really WOULD have kept her promises to us. Another four years before we will have the chance again to get someone who WILL care because you SCREWED IT UP for this year, and for all of us.
And while I am at it, SCREW YOU OBAMABOTS who keep claiming those of us who won’t vote for this sham of a candidate are going to be setting back women, and Roe. v. Wade. If you had GIVEN A SHIT about women, really given a damn, or about Roe v. Wade, you would have supported the person in the race with a CLEAR and CONSISTENT record on women, and choice. But you didn’t. So, SHUT THE HELL UP ALREADY.
The saddest part is that for anyone paying attention, this isn’t surprising in the least.

I cannot think of any issue he does not cover both ways.
FISA
Oil
Nuclear
Iraq Withdrawal
Economy
Taxes
Gay Rights
etc.
And so, he really stands for nothing except Obama.
It’s like we’re being forced to watch a cheap stage act of magic and manipulation by a D-list performer.
He insults EVERYONE’S intelligence; the premise of his sleight of hand is that he’s just oh so much smarter—which he is not. Obama would lose on that game show where he’d be put up against a 5th grader.
Actually its up to congress to change the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy and always has been. Only they can change the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
Obama and his supporters can only argue on technicalities at this point. Despicable.
While I’m not a PUMA, I been a McCain supporter since Fred dropped out in the Republican Primaries. You can check my history on Digg if you’d like.

It becomes more and more mind-numbingly, irrefutable how much this spineless, anti-American, manchurian candidate-like, islamic trojan horse FRAUD hates this county and all of us. The nausea he invokes is giving way to rage. Rage engenders action.
HOW DARE HE interfere with the military and REQUEST that a delay in withdrawal agreements occur so the HE can use them to his political advantage!! He has the blood of AMERICA’S sons and daughters on his hands.
HOW DARE HE use his cronies, long-time insiders, to shake the economic foundation of AMERICA!! Again, so he can use the economic uncertainty and fear to terrorize AMERICA’S families and businesses for his own politcal gain. He has the economic insecurity of AMERICA on his hands.
HOW DARE HE suggest that he will wait to present urgent steps necessary to stabilize the economic stability of AMERICA!! Again, so he can use the hard-earned success and confidence created by AMERICAN families and small businesses to terrorize their futures for his own political gain.
HOW DARE YOU, b. HUSSEIN OBAMA, with your
Iraqi billionaires (Auchi),
Saudi royalty (Prince al Taweed)
Syrian hustlers(Rezko),
Paleistinian terrorists (Rafah Camp),
islamic terrorists (Hamas and Hezbollah), communist mentors(Frank Marshall Davis and Saul Alinsky)
corrupt Chicago self-dealers (Jim Johnson, Gov. Blagdovecic, ACORN, Mayor Daley redux)
racist bigots
(Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Ftr. Phleger, Rev. Meeks)
Black Liberation Theology extremists (see previous unholy men)
anti-American (Bill Ayers, Bernadette Dohrn, ALL PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED INDIVIDUALS AND ENTITIES) and
numerous other deceitful cohorts too numerous to mention,
attempt to undermine our country on our watch.
HOW DARE YOU think AMERICA will let you do this without a battle?
HOW DARE YOU attempt to divide America on color, class and gender lines. America is greater than the sum of her parts. All the people under the bus know this. B. Mohammad Hussein Obama, the individuals under the bus are powerless compared to your machine. But the individuals under the bus are not few; the individuals under the bus were betrayed and scorned. The individuals under the bus are largely, AMERICANS.
America has defeated far greater enemies than you, Barack Barry Mohammad Hussein Obama Soetoro.
God willing, we shall not only defeat you, but cause you to expose yourself.
How dare you think you will rig the vote?
How dare you think you are the one?
MONITOR THE VOTE AND THE VOTE COUNT
COUNTRY FIRST!!!
McCain/Palin 08
The Log Cabin group who are gay republicans endorse Mccain
I know Larry Craig is standing right behind him, just raring to go!!!!
Wow, you must be totally obsessed with Larry’s wang.
BTW, sir, allow me to introduce you to Bob “I see Dicks!” Herbert:

—”POW!” LOL.
You O-bots are the dumbest shitheads. You’ll believe in anything, such as that Obama coined the phrases “Yes, we can!“, “We are the ones we are waiting for.“, “Change, we can believe in“, “Fired up and ready to go!“, “The Audacity of Hope“, “Just words…“, etc., etc., etc.
These catch phrases were all stolen from other people, you useless halfwits.
drwang is only upset because he has to wait his turn.
I got the impression that TUCC was generally homophobic. And we know he listened to anti-white, anti-jewish, anti-Hillary sermons. I’m sure there must be a homophobic one in there somewhere.
Sorry Amy, but I Won’t shut the hell up. I supported Hillary, but She’s out. Now I support the person who matches closest with her policies. Like it or not, Thats Obama.
You’re not going to “Show em” by voting for McCain, you will be cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Sometimes you have let go of your hate and anger. And if Obama makes a dog’s dinner of it, I’m fully prepared to support her for a challenge run in 2012.
Obama is a thief, a liar and a fraud.
Of course he is more in line with Hillary on a Democratic Platform. You should go a little bit deeper and investigate the guy instead of swallowing his garbage without chewing. Just because he sports a D behind his name, does not mean he is a Democrat. Just a thought.
He is a thief, a liar and a fraud.
Care to enlighten us? Perhaps you should delve into McCains past dealings…there’s enough there to make the PUMA’s busy for decades…….
“Doctorwang” I get a sense that you get your kicks from ‘enlightening’ people.
hey wank;
if only barko was so forthcoming about his past…

A very interesting article from American Thinker.
http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/09/why_islamists_cheer_for_obama.html
Obama sat in a racist, American hating church for 20 years, is friends with a terrorist, have communist leaders of other countries supporting him…but you want to vote for him because he is a Democrat. That’s not very bright.
The bailouts of the financial sector are representative of TRUE socialism. Of the Red Chinese kind. Thanks McCain (and the rest of your deregulating buddies (Bush, Gramm, etc.)- for turning America into a communist state.
wank;
you surely drivel…
How so- please elaborate.
Before you do, please check out modern socialism.
How so- please elaborate.
okay, here’s ONE example of ‘traitorous Republicans’:
Dianne Feinstein resigns committee post amid scandal; accused of war profiteering
Feinstein’s husband Richard Blum has racked in millions of dollars from Perini, a civil infrastructure construction company, of which the billionaire investor wields a 75 percent voting share.
In April 2003, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers gave $500 million to Perini to provide services for Iraq’s Central Command. A month earlier in March 2003, Perini was awarded $25 million to design and construct a facility to support the Afghan National Army near Kabul. And in March 2004, Perini was awarded a hefty contract worth up to $500 million for “electrical power distribution and transmission” in southern Iraq.
Feinstein, who sits on the Senate Appropriations Committee as well as the Select Committee on Intelligence, is reaping the benefits of her husband’s investments.
NOW DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.
that’s ‘modern socialism’ if i ever saw it…
oh brother. blah blah blah blah blah. Take your wang smoke and blow it elsewhere my dear.
you dumbass…what do you propose…letting the economy fall into a recession/depression?? all you fucking pea brain pod bots know how to do is recite some stupid ass catch phrases that happen to be cool today after drinking your kool aid flavor of the month. you don’t know whit about economics or about democracy. if we don’t bail this corrupt businesses we’re up shit creek. and your boy has got some of them involved in it on his finance staff. Obama is being supported by communist leaders of other countries not McCain. So get your satanic kook ass on out of here.
Please. It would take entirely too much time to educate someone like you as to who has the deeper fannie lined pockets. Some times ignorance is a choice. I guess that’s yours. But for the millions and millions of Americans with actual skin in this game … who don’t live on Section 8, food stamps and other government handouts, are tired of seeing more of their earnings diverted to programs for the laziest of Americans and hearing about how America doesn’t do enough for them, we’ll be at the polls voting for reform.
Wow! Is that you Taylor?
So…he has a platform similar to Hillary’s right? Is that before or after FISA, NAFTA, campaign finance reform, DADT, etc etc…
How many stabs in the back do you need before you realize that he’s not anything like HRC?
enough to know that John McCain is against almost EVERY policy Hillary is for, not just a handfull.
Like it or not, Hillary’s and Obama’s voting records are very similar. So are MOST of their policy views.
I wonder how Hill would have voted for FISA had she won the nomination. She didn’t have a problem voting for Kyl Lieberman. Politicains try to minimize attack ads…simple as that
Lets please not forget that don’t ask don’t tell was a Clinton policy. I wasn
Hillary didn’t sit in a racist, American hating church for 20 years, she isn’t friends w a terrorist…blah, blah, blah. you’re a satanic kook just like your other Obama troll friends. You’re pathetic…your goal and ambition in life is to go on blogs where you’re not wanted, you are laughed at and made fun of so you can say shit that isn’t true and make a spectacle of how stupid and shallow you are?? YOu need serious mental help.
Hillary is not an employee of the Daley Combine aka the Mob as in Copone. O does not have any policies that are not cleared with them. Also he has had few policies in the Senate because he has never bothered to show up unless they were having group pictures.

Conc:
Obama has a voting record? I thought that was just a rumor.
Stop the hate!
If Hillary is so much like NObama, why is it she said that while she had 35 years experience, all he had was a speech? (Anyone have that video, it has been scrubbed) That is a scathing comment in politics. She didnt say anything like that against her own opponents or any other candidate in any of her campaigns.
gleep
yep, it’s Taylor. The one and only ban everyone who disagrees with you under the sun and turn your own blog to a ghost town Taylor.
Talk about cutting your nose to spite your face. That’s what she did to her blog.
See that’s cause you don’t understand what a beautiful thing about spite is. See when you cut your nose off, you’d better be cutting another person throat out. See I’m actually a christian, and i do believe abortion is a naughty thing, but i support it because I believe that god gives people options and choices and i don’t have to feed your kid. So when you slapped me by not listening to my vote, why the hell should i care about your choices. So hell yeah, it feels real good, and it also means that on top of kicking you in the gut, I keep my country from tanking under the rule of a lying incompetent little thief, and a female vp to top it off. I detest arrogant self righteous people screw what party they belong to, guess i should be grateful you finally threw my black behind a black presidential candidate, even if he is an incompetent jerk huh? Screw my uterus wench, you took away my freedom of speech and that’s everything. Next time around you will think twice before you cross me. Cause if I can respect you then you better respect me.
Ps. Bots Move to china, there you can have all the abortions you want, and no say in your governement, until that time, respect my fracken vote.
“. . .matches closest to her policies. . .” What time of day was that?
Conc - I don’t support parties that select their nominees rather than elect them; that engage in vote theft - lawful votes cast for one candidate and given to another; permit voter fraud (caucuses); and engage in voter disenfranchisement. This isn’t just abt my anger at Obama’s consistent flip-flopping - the only thing abt which he IS consistent, it is about a party that went against the will of the people.
That being said, you miss the point - you have NO idea if Obama is going to pursue policies in YOUR interest because he has changed on every single one of them. He is unqualified to hold this office by his thin resume, his choices, and his associates. And that has nothing to do with being angry - it is all abt wanting what is best for this country, and that is not him.
CONC
You really should not be talking about Hillary. You know, on some blogs, talking about Hillary or the primaries will get you permanently banned (in all caps, of course.) Any attempt to make the owner of the blog look two faced or portray her as a flip flopper is not taken kindly. The truth hurts, doesn’t it?
As a woman of principle, yes principle, and strong principles, I must tell you that I can’t support a candidate who I grew to loathe, regardless of the issues. A D behind a name is nothing more than a letter of the alphabet. I know a lot of people who switched parties just so they could win an election. Their positions didn’t change, just the letter.
And once again, no, Hillary and Obama are not the same, in any way, including the issues. FISA? She didn’t flip flop - she voted exactly the way she said she would. Born Alive Prot Act? She didn’t flip flop, she was one of the ones who voted FOR it. She’s openly supported the glbt community. And, c’mon, now you’re saying Bill was the one who put the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy in place? Do you even friggin know why? It was a compromise - his attempt to open the military to gays didn’t receive the support it needed.
By the way, Bill wasn’t running for office this year. Hillary was.
I can respect that you believe Obama can deliver for you.
I happen to disagree that he can do any more than Bush did. So my vote is not about hating Obama or anger towards HIM.
I would be more careful about classifying people. And if we are going to talk about hate, how about all that hate coming from Obama towards people who don’t agree with him? You know, like calling them bitter, angry and full of hate?
I am not voting for McCain against Obama. I am voting McCain because I trust the man with my country. Its simple as that.
Now tell me why I should trust Obama over McCain?
Because he says he is going to change things?
Ah..Buh-BYE!
of course he matches close to her policies, he f**king copied them. As I recall the “Oregon Compact” was copied almost word for word. Ironic that his so called great speech “Just Words” were JUST THAT!
Big slap in the face to Hillary from Philly press…what a bunch of fucking ass kissers. Hillary marches in gay parades but Obama won’t even have his picture taken w a straight person who supports gay marriage?? Doesn’t sound gay friendly to me.
Did anyone watch Greta last night when she had Donald Trump on. He really likes and admires Hillary. He said she got at least 50% of the vote and couldn’t believe she wasn’t the Democratic nominee. But could not figure out why Obama piced a VP that got only 1% of the vote instead of Hillary who got 18 million votes. Greta asked why he thought Obama did that and Trump said he didn’t know, I guess because he didn’t like her, or didn’t feel comfortable w her.
All I can say is I am going to do everything I can including volunteering the week up to and on election day to make sure Obama doesn’t trample on us up to the White House. I couldn’t believe it when Bush got in. Let’s not let another incompetent, arrogant and unqualified person run our country into the ground.
I heard that, the money man also said that Obama’s plan for the economy in an already fragile economy would drive us into a recession worse than the great recession. I think he knows money better than anyone running. (Not too sure I’d vote for him if he were running.
But, I’d trust him wiht my finances.)Although, they just announced the Dow is opening at 300+ points, not good news for Obama, but proves Donald was right. He also said yesterday it would be back up today or tomorrow.
Make sure you wear a Donald Trump wig on your head. That way you’ll be sure to gain the respect of your fellow neighbors…..
I’m not sure where I heard it, wish I could attribute it to the right person - if you’re here please step in and take credit - but this description fits Dr. Wang perfectly, he is “intellectually arrogant and emotionally stingy.”
how is it different from the Biden wig?
To JP and Woodie,
I have investigated his background and have learned there is no 100% clean candidate. Not even Hillary. Or did you forget about the almost non-stop investigations when Bill was in office. McCain has his own set of scandal and baggage, as does Obama.
That Rev Wright stuff, doesn’t make much of difference to me. The guy spouting the hate still remembers when someone of his color wasn’t good enough to piss in the same toilet as me. And certain parts of America thought that was fine. So I cut him some slack if he’s still angry about it.
Palin’s priest thinks Israel gets what it deserves from terrorists because they don’t accept Jesus. The stuff preachers say is just that. Stuff.
Persoanlly, I would have had no problem voting for John McCain of 2000. I don’t know who the John McCain of 2008 is.
hey con;
you appear to be well-opinionated… now be well-informed:
“There is no doubt in my mind that as a member of the Black community, I am obligated to this community and will utilize all of my present and future resources to benefit the Black community first and foremost.”
can you name that racist? (hint: her name is michelle obama).
Re the non-stop investigations when Bill was in office: it was a $40 million dollar Republican witch hunt—an impotent effort to foil a popular President.
Wikipedia The Arkansas Project—a group of loony right-wing loonies who conceived, created, and executed the biggest smear campaign in the history of the planet.
And yet Bill was still tied with FDR as most popular President of the 20th century. That’s practically a miracle.
As for corruption—forget about it. The Clinton Administration had fewer convictions and forced resignations than any two-term administration since Teddy Roosevelt.
See also The Hunting of the President, by Joe Conason and Gene Lyons—the sordid tale of how the Republicans smeared a popular President. Republicans are traitors.
“Republicans are traitors.”
I’m in total agreement. Look what they’ve done to our economy…all for corporate greed. You’d have to be a fool or a traitor to vote for McCain this election.

surely you drivel…

Dianne Feinstein Rresigns Committee Post Amid Scandal; Accused of War Profiteering.

SO MUCH FOR TRAITOROUS GREED BEING EXCLUSIVELY REPUBLICAN
No! Not Feinstein!
That explains why she kept such a low profile when Hillary was being fire roasted.
Is there anyone with any damned honor left?
I know this breaks my heart, I’ve fought hard for Diane at every turn. Gotten moderate Republicans to vote for her because she’s been so good at working with both sides. I gave up on Barbara last year when she moved so far left, she got into the radical left agenda. Now to hear this about Diane…To see where the Democrats have gone. We had to humble the Republicans in 2006. I guess the Democrats felt left out. The past couple years have been a real eye opener. We desperately need a strong third party with good candidates in this country to break the monopoly.
Republicans have been comitting treason on a regular basis ever since Reagan. Reagan even sold nuclear secret s to China (which the Republican traitors later tried to pin on Bill Clinton).
But–for the record–I believe a crooked Democrat like Obama would be far worse than another Republican.
McCain’s administration will probably look a lot like Herbert Hoover’s–doing nothing as the economy implodes, paving the way for the Democrats to come in and clean up another Republican mess. Obama has simply delayed things a bit.
Democrats, too…
So much for “May the best man/woman win” when they can’t even get on the ballot because of party politics.
Now having a competitive 3rd or 4th party to keep the other two more honest in their candidate selection is change I can believe in.
yeah, but Bill is a racist and Hillary needs to ‘get over it’…
I JUST watched that movie yesterday! Rented it. And now I rented this other movie about Bill’s presidency…I forget what it’s called, but it has a video of his first debate with George HW Bush on it.
“I have investigated his background and have learned there is no 100% clean candidate.”
I doubt that there is a person here (not including obots) who would think a politician is 100% clean. No one is. It would be naive to think otherwise. That is not the point.
The point is: Obama pretends to be 100% clean. He pretends to be above the fray and yet he race-bates and engages in negative campaigning. Obama tries to portray an image that his record does not support even in the slightest. THAT is the problem.
Obama is not what he says he is. He is a thief (in regards of stealing platforms), he is a liar (in regards of almost anything that comes out of his mouth) and he is a fraud (in regards of being a D when in fact he is a Bush clone).
Wright alone is not the problem. The problem is Obama’s denial of Wright and the fact that a potential potus is so close to a person who denounces USA. That’s a problem. In addition to other slippages (and connections) that have come out of his mouth.
You can fool all of the people some time. You can fool some people all of the time. But you cannot fool all of the people all the time.
the 75 million dollar tax-payer Ken Star “investigation” into the Clinton’s produced the following:
White Water-no criminal wrong-doing
Travelgate-no criminal wrong-doing
Filegate-no criminal wrong-doing
We were instead left with a stained dress and a blow job.
The investigation as you call it was pushed for by the Republican majority in both Houses. I love how you “so-called” progressives who support Obama this election cycle forget that this was a Republican witchhunt and that when Clinton left office, he left with record approval ratings.
Of course you wouldn’t remember that, you were just graduating from middle school was it?
Many of the Obots were just graduating from Nursery School when President Clinton left office. And judging from their comments some of them haven’t even managed that.
well suprise, suprise…you don’t care that someone who wants to lead America sat in a church listening to American hating sermons. The 50’s and 60’s are over so put down the bong. Blacks have plenty of rights now so don’t throw that race card in my face. I am a woman and I don’t have to look back on bad memories of discrimination…I am still getting discriminated against every day!! But I don’t excuse that by associating w terrorists and ministers no less, who curse, making gyrating sex movements and spout HATE. No, I try to be the best person I can be and do productive things w my life instead of playing a victim and living in the past. How does that help blacks??
Having been at receiving end of reverse racism from blacks, I know that racisms is contained in the brain, not the skin color. It is about fear, ignorance and intolerance.
Anyone who doesn’t know this can easily be convinced otherwise.
Wow - take the blinders off. He took his kids to that church so they could continue the hate and indoctrinate this congregation to continue to the hate. That is stucking fupid!
wow, you memorized the talking points. oh, i bet you cheated and have them and the hourly updates stuck to your monitor.
Just when you thought there’s no more room for him to move to the right…
meanwhile, watch Bill Clinton talk about the economy…Media screams that he praised Hillary’s plan, not Obama’s

This is no doubt the influence of the Black Theology extremist and his Moslem background, and I would say, of those Moslems from the Middle East today who support him for POTUS. This is a big deal to them. Yessirree, religion first, no matter how antiquated the issue and barbaric the effects…”How dare those homosexuals show public affection for each other…lets stone them”. Did you ever hear any of the Louie Fairykhan insiders talk about the issue? Its downright spook and frightening.
Odd, though, when you think about all of the ‘alleged’ gay encounters Obama has had. Its the Larry craig syndrome. In the end, I think they’re all closet queens, especially the most macho and mean sounding ones…’Prime Suspects” they are.
I wonder what Fairykhan was thinking when he read about Obama’s Limo sex and the Rezko parites? Could it have been, ” Damn, why wasn’t I invited!”
“spooky”, that is.
As having lived thru the upheaval when Massachusetts legalized gay marriage- I agree with you about some Black religious leaders and their views on homosexuality. It was bizarre reading in the newspapers or watching on TV their fear and anger. I kept having to tell myself- “The issue is discrimination right?” It was bizarre.
Rev. Amy…agree completely. I’ve not been able to understand how any gay/lesbian could support this man.
I love it. I love you, Amy.
Thanks, y’all!
Given that I have been a vocal critic of Axelrod’s other creation, Gov. Patrick, at least he marches in parades, and not just because his daughter came out. This is a human rights issue.
When in college, one of my friends was a ROTC cadet, pretty open about her orientation, never got a peep from the military. Why? Fluent in Russian, could speak itlike a native, (useful in those wonderful Reagan years). The military would look the other way for the very valuable, skilled personnel.
Um, nope. Google up translators and gays in the military. It’s mindblowing.
RRRA thanks for this. i knew most of it, except
“You are the most LGBT-friendly candidate running for president in history. Are you concerned that John McCain and the Republicans might use this as a divisive issue as they did in 2004?”
i’m totally disgusted with any GLBT member who (will) vote/ed for him. and in SF it is tough.
for me the first signal was Donnie McClurkin. i hope all of them will be CURED.
and the last one was Judy Foster. as an independent filmmaker and a lesbian, i was a little shocked that she was part of the fundraising.
after this election, nothing can surprise me from any politician, org., news establishment, friends …
