Barack Obama likened Hillary Rodham Clinton to President Bush for threatening to "totally obliterate" Iran if it attacks Israel. "It's not the language we need right now, and I think it's language reflective of George Bush," he said.

So I wonder, who's gonna win tomorrows primaries, will it be Obama or McBush/Clinton/Limbaugh?

I listened to her w/stephi yesterday. I liked what she said about Iran.

I really feel I need to vote for her...against BHO.

DH does not give a shit...he is voting for RP.

DH?

Just what we need, Hillary Paderbore trying to live up to Carville's description of her as having three testicles hidden in her stretched out pantsuit.

Paderbore = Panderbore

Carville's description of her as having three testicles hidden in her stretched out pantsuit.

And two of those are Bill's.

I watched a half hour of her with Stephanopoulos and then a half hour of Obama with Russert. Whether you agree with Obama or not, at least he answers questions directly. When asked about this gas tax silliness, she never answered the question, just went on and on about the working class and elitism and other bluster. Why can't she answer a question directly?

Libs used to say that Hillary was the smartest woman in the world. She now imitates George Bush. That must mean that Bush is the smartest man in the world. He did have better grades than either Kerry or Gore.

Ties between the Clintons and the Bushes go right back to the vilest crimes in recent US history. The Dark Alliance imported cocaine for machine guns against the will of Congress, killing nuns and priests for US hedgemony in Central America.
Many of those planes went through Arkansas when Bill was Governor. When the scandal was revealed under Bill's Presidency a massive media coverup was launched without one ioda of fact to back it up.

And where do you think Mary Matalin keeps Carville's balls?

He sure doesn't have them with him any more.

Fascinating that yesterday Hillary was all-out "attacking" George Bush, but she never even attacked John McCain.

Obama sounds like Carter.

It is only a matter of time before one of them invokes Godwin's Law against the other.

Hey nutcase, was this before or after Hillary shot Kennedy?

I don't understand the 'gimmick' comment from Obama on gas taxes. Is this the same type of gimmick as joining a radical black church to get elected to the state senate and then throwing it under the bus when running for president? When even your pastor says that you are a typical politician that will say whatever it takes to get elected, you have to start to question a candidate that runs on hopes, dreams and rhetoric ... .

Jock,


you have to start to question a candidate that runs on hopes, dreams and rhetoric


Precisely!

Obama is proving to be just like every other politician - which kinda erodes his advantage in the hope, change and unity department.

DH?

DH...Darling Husband.

Damn!


I thought the 'D' stood for "Dickhead" and I was tempted to make a pass at you.

What is funny to me is that it doesn't matter who was in the WH if Iran nuked Israel, they would have the shit kicked out of them. First by Israel and then by the rest of the free world.

Obama sounds like Carter.

Carter is the best President we've had since FDR.

Bwahahahahahaha!


Let's analyze this, shall we?


Since FDR we've had:

Truman
Eisenhower
Kennedy
Johnson
*Nixon
*Ford
Carter
Reagan
GHWBush
Clinton
*GWBush

I wouldn't necessarily agree, but an argument could be made that Carter was a more effective president than those with the * in front of their names - Nixon, Ford, BushII.

To state that Carter was better than the rest on this list indicates that the kitty-litter fumes are clouding your judgement. Again. ;-)

I would rather he sound like Carter than some others.

Carter had the absolutely correct idea about how we should become energy independent, which thirty long thirsty years later we have done little about.

Obama is not "just like every other politician" but Hillary Clinton is like every politician piled on to each other. Promise anything, right left, war, peace, rich, poor, and its not about US, it's all about HER, don't mistake it for anything else.

Aw, Did Carter build you one of those Habit for Humanity houses.

"I'm here to tell you there's a conspiracy to destroy our boys."
(Verbatim transcription from a CD sold on the church's website.)


So this conspiracy, as described, is founded on the racial bias and professional incompetence of non-black, female teachers. Then it is perpetuated by co-conspirators that include school officials and corporations that manage private schools and build prisons. Elsewhere in the sermon, local politicians and police officials are implicated in the conspiracy.


The sermon was delivered in Chicago, but it began by citing the failure of Baltimore Public Schools. The Baltimore School Board has ten members, one of whom is a Student Commissioner. Based on their photographs, six are African-Americans.


The school officials most directly indicted in the sermon, given that it was delivered before a Chicago congregation, are the seven members of the Chicago Board of Education. Based on their photographs and biographical sketches, three are African-Americans (including the Board President); two are either Hispanic-Americans or carry a surname that so suggests; one appears to be an Anglo, and one is an Asian-American. These 17 persons from two major metropolitan school boards are, according to the accusation that came from the pulpit of Senator Barack Obama's Trinity United Church of Christ, key members of a conspiracy to put in place "a system designed and cultivated to maintain, to destroy, our children - especially our boys."


The sermon was delivered by a preacher that Obama described to Tim Russert on Meet The Press, Sunday, May 4, as his church's "wonderful young pastor." His name: The Reverend Otis B. Moss III. He is the pastor in line to assume Jeremiah Wright's position upon Wright's retirement.

a trend is developing with the typical white folks here in NC.

this weekend i saw the third obama sticker that was partially/mostly removed. you idiots are finally waking up, uh i mean the press is finally being nominally objective, uh i mean obama keeps opening his pie hole.

Obama makes an excellent point, but:

Wall Street, known variously as a barren wasteland for diversity or the last plantation in America, has defied courts and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for decades in its failure to hire blacks as stockbrokers. Now it's marshalling its money machine to elect a black man to the highest office in the land. Why isn't the press curious about this?

The first clue to an entrenched white male bastion seeking a black male occupant in the oval office (having placed only five blacks in the U.S. Senate in the last two centuries) appeared in February on a chart at the Center for Responsive Politics website. It was a list of the 20 top contributors to the Barack Obama campaign, and it looked like one of those comprehension tests where you match up things that go together and eliminate those that don't. I was now looking at a sight only slightly less frightening to democracy than a Diebold voting machine. It was a Wall Street cartel of financial firms, their registered lobbyists, and go-to law firms that have a death grip on our federal government.

Why is the "yes, we can" candidate in bed with this cartel? How can "we", the people, make change if Obama's money backers block our ability to be heard?

Seven of the Obama campaign's top 14 donors consisted of officers and employees of the same Wall Street firms charged time and again with looting the public and newly implicated in originating and/or bundling fraudulently made mortgages. Those scars will last a lifetime.

These seven Wall Street firms are (in order of money given): Goldman Sachs, UBS AG, Lehman Brothers, JP Morgan Chase, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse. There is also a large hedge fund, Citadel Investment Group, which is a major source of fee income to Wall Street. There are five large corporate law firms that are also registered lobbyists; and one is a corporate law firm that is no longer a registered lobbyist but does legal work for Wall Street. The cumulative total of these 14 contributors through February 1, 2008, was $2,872,128, and we're still in the primary season.

Hasn't Senator Obama repeatedly told us in ads and speeches and debates that he wasn't taking money from registered lobbyists? Hasn't the press given him a free pass on this statement?

Should there be any doubt left as to who owns our government? The very same cast of characters making the Obama hit parade of campaign loot are the clever creators of the industry solutions to the wave of foreclosures gripping this nation's poor and middle class, effectively putting the solution in the hands of the robbers. The names of these programs (that have failed to make a dent in the problem) have the same vacuous ring: Hope Now; Project Lifeline.

Be assured of one thing: this country cannot afford any more grand illusions.

Excerpted from Pam Martens @ Counterpunch

Scooter, what part of the state are you in?

"a trend is developing with the typical white folks here in NC."

Describe "typical white folks" in NC.

thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com

"The latest New York Times/CBS News poll shows "an overwhelming majority of voters said candidates calling for the suspension of the federal gasoline tax this summer were acting to help themselves politically, rather than to help ordinary Americans." Also, the poll finds many voters say they're not affected by the furor over Mr. Obama's relationship with his pastor but think it could be a big deal in the general election."
Bwahahahahahahahaha!

The American voter is too smart to be fooled by bogus populist pandering by the likes of McCain and Clinton.

All politicians are panderers. Who's the least full of shit?

"Also, the poll finds many voters say they're not affected by the furor over Mr. Obama's relationship with his pastor"

My two biggest issues:
1.) Wright basically said Obama will say anything to be elected and he is just being a politician right now. That would not mean much to me if it is just a guy off the street, but this is mentor of 20+ years and pastor

2.) Obama says that he never heard these things from the pastor. I don't know about you, but if my pastor said the US government inveted AIDS and God Damn America - then the congregation would be talking about it for weeks afterward. So, Obama was not apparently there that week and apparently never heard anybody else talk about it....well, if your IQ is less than 80, you might believe him.

So we have a candidate that runs on 'words and hope' that is an easily demonstratable liar. How many lies must one tell before they are a liar? How many times must Obama lie to his supporters before they realise he does this because he thinks you are too stupid to see through his lies?

I wish the suppposed pro-Obama media would ask Clinton how suspending the fed gas tax somehow constitutes "go(ing) after the oil companies." Making a product cheaper increases demand, and therefore profit for oil companies. What am I missing?

why the gas tax is stupid

(i work in the financial industry)

gas tax break increases demand

people stock pile
buy gas for home
etc etc

demand goes up
prices goes

18 cents saved on gas tax goes down to 9 cents

after gas tax is levied back at end of summer

istead of going up just 18 cents
it goes up the inflation by demand PLUS gas tax

so after summer.
the help you recieved will be null and void and possible worsened in the fall.

thus
gas tax holiday=stupid

"demand goes up
prices goes"

You know, that might actually hold some water if the US inventory of gas and prices were not moving up together currently...basic rules of supply and demand do not hold in a monopoly industry like oil. Not that removing the gas tax is a good idea, but to believe demand would go up along with prices and eliminate the benefit to consumers is pretty stupid.

"basic rules of supply and demand do not hold in a monopoly industry like oil"

i guess all the economists that understand this better then you and i are wrong.

nice

And the oil industry is an oligopoly with free agents thrown in, not a monopoly.

I wouldn't necessarily agree, but an argument could be made that Carter was a more effective president than those with the * in front of their names - Nixon, Ford, BushII.

Can't defend Ford or GWB, but to call Nixon ineffective is showing very little understanding of his presidency. He was paranoid, and he got nailed by Watergate, he escalated Vietnam before it ended, and he had personality issues. But he had a superb foreign policy, he was the first president to visit the USSR, the first to visit all 50 states, he opened up wide diplomatic relations with China, his Supreme Court nominees were balanced (one of - Blackmun - them even wrote the RoevWade majority decision); he started the EPA, he reduced the speed limit to 55 to conserve gasoline (which Bill Clinton later repealed), he broke the school integration log-jam in the South against the George Wallace factions through background negotiations.. he reduced wasteful NASA spending, and eventually got the US out of Kennedy/Johnson's Vietnam War,.

You may not like the guy, or you may not like some of what he did, but I believe to say he was ineffective is simplistic and wrong.

So I wonder, who's gonna win tomorrows primaries, will it be Nigbama or McBush/Clinton/Limbaugh?

Let's be fair.

"i guess all the economists that understand this better then you and i are wrong."

Yes, they are wrong. Economics is based on a set of principles that work great in textbooks but simply do not work in real life. If they did, all gas stations would price exactly the same - not the case. You would not tip in a restuarant when on vacation once again that is not the case for a vast majority of people. The fact of the matter is that economics is based upon all all consumers acting 100% rational all the time and perfect competition and substitution of goods that is not the case. If economists knew what they were talking about, we would never have recessions or asset bubbles the fact is that economist are a useless bunch of fools.

Why is the media afraid to ask Obama about affirmative action, race based admissions to colleges, reparations, income redisribution, etc?

Had anyone but Nixon gone to China--Nixon would have labelled them as Commie Sympathisers. Nixon sat at the left hand of McCarthey during the darkest days of anti American propaganda from the rightists.

Nixon was a traitor in the tradition of all republican traitors since Hoover. Americans will destroy America.

Glad we're not generalizing or anything like that. Surprised you didn't go all the way back to that dastardly Republican Lincoln.

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH good one.....I have asked this same kind of thing before. it wasnt that long ago that hillary was the smartest women who ever lived in the universe....and billy was the smartest politician who ever lived and today they are being eaten alive by the democrat base.
you just gotta love this politics shit......

Obama sounds like Carter.

with a taste of michael dukakis thrown in....
and who was the other...oh yeah...adeli stevenson...of course the left here probably doesnt even know that he was another FAILED democrat candidate......and karl rove was probably about 5 years old so they cant blame stevenson on him..... it must have been that right wing attack machine from the late 40's and early 50's.......

In case anyone missed the bOoB's 2:14 post, he cut and pasted it at 2:46. Isn't he clever? Is this the same bOoB who accuses people of fluffing and spamming threads? Nah -- can't be. That would make him a hypocrite.

I agree with you here. he did call for this BUT WHY DIDNT IT COME ABOUT.......well lets see.
environmental wacks holding democrat hostage perhaps??????? I have no doubt thats the majority reason.
a democrat congress for most of that time.....well of course..thats the same reason as the first one.
and lets put it this way and you can debate the amount of oil in anwar if you want, but my point has nothing to do with that...
someone last week said...oh well it will take ten years to get it out.....YES......and it was about ten years ago that BLOWJOB VETOED IT.....and so..lets see....it takes 10 years and he could have gotten it started ten years ago.....
DAMN this hight level math gets to me......
YES even if its not enough....it would be FLOWING TODAY..........
and I dont think I have to add all of the other things that we have gone over so many times..refinaries..domestic drilling, offshore...and on and on and on......and all we do is talk talk talk and bitch bitch bitch.......

dUmMies like yourself can't see them the first time. I posted that post 6 times. How many do you see?

okay but all I have to do is add the word alleged and when it comes to kennedy....remember that it was alleged that teddy killed mary jo too and we know what bullshit that is..
but thanks for the link and I hope EVERYONE HERE READS IT..
please make time to read about how they start off talking about "SHADY" business practices and insider trading........and those HAVE to be true because they are in the article you posted.
SO...lets review class.......it MIGHT not be well known fact about bootlegging, but they DIDNT DENY IT EITHER, but shady dealings, back room deals, and behavior so shady that they were MADE ILLEGAL...and again. this is from YOUR post so you would have to see how this really DOESNT help your case except that it gave you an opprutunity to descredit my language of desribiing this family who is richer than shit.......and it seems that a lot of it was made off the sweat of common people.......does that sound like modern day democrats? well more and more it does.

WELL BOB.....thanks for the link about bush doing more than clinton or anyone before him...
as to the first two, surely you dont believe that solar power will keep the industrial complex going or take care of our energy needs.
solar has to be valuable as well as wind but it seems to me that one cant take care of all of our energy needs.....face it, we are stuck with fossil fuels for a long time, no matter when someone comes up with an engine that runs on salt water.

Everyone to Obama sounds like Bush because Obama is a liberal socialist.

Soft on guns soft on crime--against charging teens who murder as adults, tax tax tax--everyone with a pay check..

ON the gas tax--no one is addressing the problem--we need to drill for our own oil and gas and expand the refineries or built new ones and build nuclear plants--

None of the candidates talk straight.

Well Butt Lover Poo

What about ol graan pappy Prescott Bush and his enabling the nazi war machine via UBC.

Prescott Bush was a director and shareholder of a number of companies involved with Fritz Thyssen, by bankrolling the industrial fabrication companies that rearmed Germany for WWII, you know, the Hitler war machine.

BLT you and jock strap are morons

As people will discover, Obama is more like Dubya than they want to know...!!!!

We have never agreed on anything. That's why we should be citizens of different countries.

So when are you applying for your Venezuelan citizenship, bOoB?

"Libs used to say that Hillary was the smartest woman in the world."


When did "libs" ever say that?!? Whacko righties always make that claim but I have yet to see anyone on the left give her quite that much credit.

I'm not much of a Hillary fan over all, but, although she might be lower than the lowest whaleshit in the deepest part of the deepest ocean, she's still standing on the shoulders of W.

Ding- Ding- Ding !!

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner! Godwin's Law has been invoked! Congratulations, Repug ! And for associating your opponent or his cause with Hitler and Nazism, you receive this valuable prize: A voucher toward a 6-month supply of Massengill's Extra Mild Vinegar and Water Disposable 2-packs, redeemable at the convention reception desk in Denver in August.

They both leveraged their family names into government positions for which they were never qualified. Neither has a soul. And their political agenda is nearly identical if you check voting records.

Its a shame Hillary isn't married to Dubya instead of Bill as they seem to have more in common.

Nappyheadedho

Relating historical events is not citing Godwins law.

"Relating historical events is not citing Godwins law."

As usual, I must disagree with Bob.

Prescott Bush was a fascist and a Nazi sympathizer, but he wasn't an actual Nazi! ;)

Sully

The point wasn't about whether P Bush was a Nazi or a fascist. The point was that relating historical fact is not citing Godwins law.
