Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

Sen. Barack Obama ripped into a Republican ad today that targets comments made by his wife, Michelle. The Illinois senator told Good Morning America that he expects hardball tactics from the Republicans if he becomes the Democratic presidential nominee. "But I also think these folks should lay off my wife," he said.

"I'd like a turn with 'er."

--Barack H.

i'd be proud to....

well.... maybe not.

if he wants the media to get out of her face - he should stop letting her speak.

all the best

More quackfishery. Ho hum.

I posted an entry with the same title. Here are my thoughts:

First of all, I think he is barking up the wrong tree. If his wife is going to campaign for her husband, her remarks are open for criticism. Either tell her to STFU or be willing to take it like a man.

Let's list all the things Obama says we cannot do during his campaign:

1. Talk about his ears 2. Say his middle name 3. Quote anything he or his wife have said or done 4. Say anything about his mother, his father, his grandmother, his "former" minister or his terrorist friends 5. Talk about his race, his income, his lack of experience, his patriotism or his background 6. Say anything against his stand on issues, such as appeasement (You can't even talk about appeasement at all without insulting him)

Did I miss anything?

And one more thing, Obama. In all seriousness, if you can't use your influence to get your own wife to to tone it down, how do you envision yourself having any influence on the world stage?



It's one thing and accepted practice to consider a candidate's children off limits (unless they're under age booze hounds) but when its the spouse, the rules are quite different. Especially when that spouse plays such an active role in the campaign.

I don't know what he was thinking threatening the GOP like that.

It's like he's never been in the ocean before and is shocked that its wet.

Quite the little game here.
If he speaks up, he's too sensitive.
If he says nothing, he's like John Kerry and the swift boat pukes.
Quite the cute little political game the girls on the right have created.



Now, now. Be nice.

Evil, you can't even comment on his obvious "Don't touch me or anyone associated with me or anything I stand for" attitude?

His wife was chuckling? Maybe she is inviting comments.

Just not comments noting that she is a long-term credentialled member of the "hate-America" club, first credentialed in her college, and then with advanced study with and credentials from the Rev. Wright institute of the hate-America, hate-whitey, hate-Hymie, black liberation theology, black separatism, black preference school. Is this "nervous chuckling?"

After all, it is rumored that Ms Michelle is as ambitious as Ms Hillary, and she wouldn't want to compromise her ambitions by enduring a continuing focus on her oppositon to all things that are "white and proper," oops, "Wright and proper," oops oops, "right and proper." And what about the domestic terrorists and political bagmen, who make payoffs to politicians. Did Michelle benefit from a $300,000 emolument from Rezko? Oh, I forgot. It was due her because of her suffering as a black American, who came from a heritage of slavery as did her husband. Wait, Obama has no family history of being a slave, he being descended from slaveholders. Let's revise this biography.

Speaking of candidate's wives, Cindy McCain's decided not to complete the memoirs she contracted to do with Viking this April. One wag over at 23/6, however, supplies a table of contents that includes:

That the candidacy of Obama has not been derailed by his noxious associations is remarkable. Druggie, user and dealer. Associate of terrorists. Decades long of association and personal involvement and extolling the virtues of haters of America and whites and Jews. Associate of political fixers and recipient of corrupting payoffs, of $300,000 on one occasion.

What enables Barack to run considering all of these negatives. The "bandwagon phenomenon?" A recent experiment with rodents showed that they some ate food they knew from experience would make them ill, and which they usually avoided, so as to conform with others in the group who were eating that food. This is the first time that effect had been observed in other than man and chimpanzees. As creatures, we seem to want to conform, and Obama was initially given media support that made him seem to be supported by an overwhelming majority of people. Obama received accolades from the media.

Why? Were members of he media themselves not exempt from manipulation by the same misguided perception of a set of circumstances that later caused a misinformed public to support his candidacy?

Psychiatrists have observed another phenomenon called "splitting the ambivalence." These pathological actions are often reflected in similar behavior in people, albeit not at a pathological level.

Here, the perception by idolators of Obama is one that imbues him with all "virtue," and denominates another with all "wickedness." Well, their long-held stereotypical perception of Bush as embodying all evil set them up for viewing a "white knight" as embodying all good.

These people don't realize how they have been manipulated, and have even manipulated themselves so they maintain understandings not consonant with reality. Now, subject to the neurotic process of "splitting the ambivalence," they are generally unable to disabuse themselves of the delusions that preclude them from perceiving reality. Their processing of relevant data is "in a rut," so to speak. Their ability to view Obama based on his now displayed attributes has been nullified by their subjection to the "splitting the ambivalence" process.

This process is seen in dsysfunctional families in which one child is all good, can do no wrong, and another is perceived and treated as all bad, can do no right. These intrafamily perceptions are demonstrated to be erroneous in therapy.

You folks are in thrall of this mode of processing of information, and shall remain supporters of Obama, driven by your inability to view him for what he is. Apologists and justifiers will deny this to themselves, just as a hypnotized person claims that he did not need to make an ass of himself on the stage following the directions of the hypnotist. But somehow he just did. But it was not because he was hypnotized. Oh no.

Yes, "the elites" could not be subject to bandwagon techniques, and could not be splitting the ambivalence. They are not subject to normal processes. Sure. Uh-huh. Yeah. They continue to embrace Obama despite all of the negatives, many of which by themselves would remove a candidate from the political scene. But once committed and subject to the psychological constraints, reality is held at bay.

I finally figured it out: Johnson's paid by the word.

Anamerican,
I didn't say I agree with how he's handled this. I just know that one of the (many) issues for Kerry in 2004 is when he was attacked in some cases, for whatever, he said nothing. That seemed to make people believe what was being said about him.

Obama's reaction is like pointing out the chum to the sharks. He's going to regret saying that.

"I finally figured it out: Johnson's paid by the word.

Hopefully (for him) by the words he types, not the words actually read.

I usually only read 1 word... "Johnson", then move on.

Absolutely brilliant?

Mrs McCain is privileged. Rich, intelligent. Beautiful.

The comments regarding her (in that Table of Contents) are similar to imprecations muttered at the Queen by derelicts living under a bridge as her carriage passes over it.

Life's losers envying life's winners. And understandably so.

Are you folks so repelled by Michelle Obama that you need to divert attention to Cindy McCain? Seems so.

Mrs McCain is privileged. Rich, intelligent. Beautiful.

She's not bad for a thieving junkie of a trollop/cunt.

"similar to imprecations muttered at the Queen by derelicts living under a bridge as her carriage passes over it."

That would've been when you served with the Yeomen Warders of Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Fortress the Tower of London, but before you were in chambers with Horace Rumpole? Please don't tell us you helped him out with the Penge Bungalow Murders, because the old boy sears he handled that one "alone and without a leader."

See you at Pomeroy's Wine Bar, wherein we may partake of some excrable "Chateau Thames Embankment" or perhaps a deservedly modest "Chateau Wells Fargo."

Pip-pip, ta-ta, toodle-oo, and talley-ho.

"I usually only read 1 word... "Johnson", then move on."

Me too. I don't dignify racist rants by reading them.

So what are we allowed to talk about the Messiah?

An American listed most issues now his wife is added to the list.

Come September--McCain and Obama won't be able to talk about anything--it will all be too divisive and out of bounds.

Quite remarkable.

Maybe if she didn't hate America like her pastor and stay in the pews for 20 years--we wouldn't have anything to worry about.

I disagree. Actually, I find her rather odd looking. She's obviously had a ton of work done. I don't find it particularly flattering. She's kind of attractive, but not beautiful in my opinion.

Obama: Don't talk about me, don't talk about my wife, don't talk about my name, don't talk about my pastor, don't talk about my friends, don't talk about my experience, don't talk about my income, don't talk about my parents, don't talk about my religion, don't talk about my grandparents, don't talk about my cousins, don't talk about my past, don't talk about what my plans as president are. Now let's talk about a more open administration. Let's talk about change....and hope.

IF they don't lay off, all spouses are in play.

Not completely sure who they are, but if Ms Obama would just stick to nice talk and avoid controversial statements, she wouldn't be an issue.

It's certainly her right to say anything she wants, and she's obviously well (and out) spoken, but if she wants to wade into the political fray, she can't hide behind her husband.

It's her choice.

obama is awesome

Mrs. Obamamama has had no problem opening that mouth of hers over the years so if she doens't want any criticism or questions from the media and the public she should just shut up and stick to wearing an apron and baking cookies.

When it comes to critizing a candidate's wife's looks and appearance then that's in poor taste but that's not what's being done here.

Obamamama has mouthed off "For the first time in my adult life I'm proud of my country" and a few other choice tidbits that the voting public needs to know about. She will take the role of First Lady if Obama is elected and she will have influence over what Obama says and does as President whether or not he admits it. She has written essays, etc. during her years at a very expensive college (aww, poor thing) and if she doesn't like her words coming back to hit her in the face now -- well, too bad.

She whines that America is "mean" (I think that was her word for our country, can't remember right off hand) yet she and her hubby attended VERY expensive Ivy League colleges and the Obama's bank balance is sure a lot healthier than mine is yet I never would consider my country as being mean to me.

She and her hubby were married by their radical, white people hating racist "spiritual mentor" Rev. Wright who for 20 years preached Black Nationalism as their form of religion and both their kids were baptized by the Rev. Got news for you, Mrs. Obamamama, you ain't seen nothing yet as to what's going to be used to vet both you and your husband as the election gets closer. Obama NEVER had to show real competition in any political race. I believe his only opponent for the Senate dropped out of the race even before the election was held.

Although a little off topic --

I believe ALL the candidates' children under age 18 should be off limits to any derrogatory comments by the press. (The Republicans putting down Chelsea for her looks when the kid was only 12 years old and still in braces was despicable until the Clintons finally had to demand the press knock it off. Even fatso Rush had the nerve to put that child down for her appearance.)

Even a candidate who has young adult children -- if their kids have not done anything to invite ridicule and are neither in elected office nor helping out on the campaign trail -- should also be left alone.

But any woman like Michele Obama who wants to be First Lady -- especially since she leans very liberal left and on the radical side and her opinions are almost border-line anti- American -- better be able to stand up to criticism and questioning or get out of the race.

Let's list all the things Obama says we cannot do during his campaign:

1. Talk about his ears 2. Say his middle name 3. Quote anything he or his wife have said or done 4. Say anything about his mother, his father, his grandmother, his "former" minister or his terrorist friends 5. Talk about his race, his income, his lack of experience, his patriotism or his background 6. Say anything against his stand on issues, such as appeasement (You can't even talk about appeasement at all without insulting him)

UNAMERICAN,

Please link to ANY FACTUAL STATEMENT MADE MY OBAMA regarding the 6 points of delusion you invented.

You sir, are a wack, and a hack.

Obama accused GW of calling him an appeaser, like Neville Chamberlain. Then he said he'd sit down with any leader, no pre conditions.

Does that mean he would have sat down with Adolph Hitler, if he were alive today??

Notice how the dr left has nothing to say about defending his wife?

Would sitting down with Adolf Hitler have hurt anything?

Cindy McCain is attractive and has definitely been "nipped and tucked" quite a few times. Nothing wrong though with keeping up your appearance if you can afford the plastic surgeon's bills.

But Cindy McCain does have that sort of phony, "too perfect" and plastic-looking physical appearance these rich older guys always seem to go for thinking it makes them look younger and more of a stud if they can afford to have some blonde "trophy-wife" draped on their arm.

wait till the campaign. McCains wife arrested for stealing drugs and using drugs/ First lady material? for columbia maybe. pure trash

Can't talk about his wife.

Can't talk about his ears.

Can't talk about his pastor.

Can't talk about Tony Rezco.

Can't talk about his religion.

Can't talk about his record.

Can't talk about his other acquaintances.

Can't talk anything about this stuffed suit, or you're a racist, or you're engaging in the politics of yesterday,...blah blah blah blah.

This guy is no different than any politician...except he's a bigger cry baby than most.

LOSER!!!!

What's wrong with McCain's ears?

Nothing about Obamas wife, but your wife gives terrible head, at least that's what I heard from Mary Cheney.

bush s wife killed her boyfriend. mccains wife a thief and druggie. Makes obamas wife seem pure

dick gives mary head

Maybe someone should lay his wife. She sounds like she's not getting any!

Notice how the dr left has nothing to say about defending his wife?

I think it's admirable that Obama is defending his wife from attacks. Watching your spouse endure that has to be much worse than enduring it yourself.

But it is a little hypocritical, since Michelle Obama is out there on the stump campaigning for her husband and has made some hard-edged comments. If you're going to step into the ring, you are gonna take some punches.

Just another example of the ignorant arrogance of this 'bobblehead'.... he tries to play (and to a somewhat successful degree, unfortunately) the game of deferring to the 'American People' and that they are only interested in 'issues of change' which he has no foundation nor credibility to support... he is too naive to realize that people are interested in the character of the people that they elect...he thinks that he is above characterization based on prior and present relationships and statements, by both he and 'Michelle the Terror'... this is only but a small sample of what is yet to come with this couple...people may find issues with Bill/Hill, but they will pale in comparison of character and credibility in many different ways with the 'Chicago Terroists' and their positions in the future... they merrily ride along thinking that they are above the element of scrutiny and to do so, they try and characterize as racists and unfair tactics....he only disguises the same tactics in his own arrogant manner...!!!!! Watch out folks, you are being deceived, big time..!!!

If Hillary can get Bubba to more or less shut his trap why can't 0bama do the same with Michelle? Oh right Hillary has something 0bama doesn't - cojones!

"Obamamama"

Wow, that's kinda classless Chris.

"She whines that America is 'mean' (I think that was her word for our country, can't remember right off hand)"

You don't even know what she said, and yet you throw it out there as a quote????????

"she and her hubby attended VERY expensive Ivy League colleges and the Obama's bank balance is sure a lot healthier than mine is"

For which they just paid off their student loans a few years ago so its not like anybody gave them anything. And Michelle has said frequently that their financial position is due mostly to Barack lucking out and having 2 bestsellers.

Michelle has said frequently that their financial position is due mostly to Barack lucking out and having 2 bestsellers.

Yes, lucking into 2 bestsellers and a senate seat...which got her a 3x raise. I guess making $300K a year for doing the same job that they used to pay you $100K did not make her list as to why they are living more comfortably. Oh, or that $300K from Rezko...yep, all due to Barack's bestsellers....

"I guess making $300K a year for doing the same job that they used to pay you $100K"

Do you really believe that, or are you just hoping someone else does?

Because people who don't spout stupid talking points know that she wasn't doing the same job as before, but was promoted to a VP spot. That she went from a department of 1 to running a department of 10. Here ya go, read all about it...

By Mike Dorning, Washington Bureau. Tribune staff reporters Bruce Japsen and David Mendell contributed from Chicago

September 27, 2006

WASHINGTON -- Officials at the University of Chicago Hospitals on Tuesday explained a large salary jump for Sen. Barack Obama's wife shortly after he took office as a normal promotion that reflected expanded duties in her job as a liaison with the South Side community surrounding the medical center.

Michelle Obama was promoted to vice president for external affairs in March 2005, two months after her husband took office in the Senate. According to a tax return released by the senator this week, the promotion nearly tripled her income from the hospitals from $121,910 in 2004 to $316,962 in 2005.

Hospitals spokesman John Easton said Obama's salary was in line with the compensation received by the not-for-profit medical center's 16 other vice presidents.

A tax return for the hospitals covering the 12 months ended June 30, 2005, shows most of the organization's vice presidents earning between $291,000 and $362,000.

Easton said the hospitals had made a determined effort to deepen their connections to the surrounding community, beginning in 2002, when Obama was hired for the new position of executive director for community affairs.

"There was a real initiative by the university and the hospitals to have a real relationship with the community," Easton said. "Over time, she developed a staff. . . . It went from zero staff to Michelle and 10 staff."

Michael Riordan, who was University of Chicago Hospitals president at the time, said he had planned early on for the position to evolve into a vice president's post as a way of showing the organization's commitment to community outreach.

"I knew where I wanted to go with this position," said Riordan, who now is the top executive of the Greenville Hospital System in South Carolina. "I wanted to identify someone to grow into it."

Riordan said Obama's promotion had nothing to do with her husband becoming a U.S. senator.

"She was hired before Barack was Barack," Riordan said. "She is worth her weight in gold, and she is just terrific."

Because people who don't spout stupid talking points know that she wasn't doing the same job as before, but was promoted to a VP spot. That she went from a department of 1 to running a department of 10.

Dumbass, read your own damn article. Over time, it went from a staff of zero to a staff of 10 - it did not go from a staff of zero and $100K/year to a staff of 10 and $300K/year as soon as she was promoted. She already had the staff and they just upped the title - she has EXACTLY the same job function as before except now she makes 3x more money....well, bad investment on the hospital's part because Barack did not have enough political savvy to get the $1M earmark through for them...

"she has EXACTLY the same job function as before"

Gee, the article just didn't say that ANYwhere.

And since she was making exactly the salary range that 16 other VP's were making, the problem is??????

If she weren't being paid commensurate with everyone else, you might have a point, but she is and you don't.

And since she was making exactly the salary range that 16 other VP's were making, the problem is??????"

The point is that her job is EXACTLY the same as it was before - but now she gets paid 3x as much because her husband is a senator. If you don't see anything wrong with that, then I can't help you. If Michelle Obama had any sense of decency, she would have rejected the raise simply to avoid the look of political favoritism.

This is not even going into the fact that it is damn near criminal for a non-profit hospital to have a "marketing" VP making $300K+ with a staff of 10 probably burning another $1M/year in salary alone doing marketing. You can not look at the mess of our current medical system and not be angry at people like Michelle Obama skimming off the top. She is part of the problem - not the solution.


.........." My wife is a cunt and a trollop "..........John McCain....

"The point is that her job is EXACTLY the same as it was before"

No, the point is that she built an entire department from scratch, and was rewarded with the title and salary commensurate with the position.

Perhaps if your thought process allowed you to get beyond being the guy who gets to put the pickle on the Big Mac, you might have some concept of corporate America.

If you want to completely change the argument to the state of the medical system, start a new thread. That's not what this is about, and its not Michelle Obama's fault. She did her job, apparently did it well, and got paid the going rate for it.

Try to get past your hate and blind partisanship and give the woman an even break.

"If Michelle Obama had any sense of decency, she would have rejected the raise simply to avoid the look of political favoritism."

BULLSHIT!

Tell me that if you worked hard and earned a promotion and a raise you would reject it. Give me a break.

There is no, nada, zip, zero indication she got the promotion because of her husband. Even her former boss, who no longer works for that hospital, says that.

Perhaps you have some proof to the contrary you'd like to bring to the table?????????

Life's losers envying life's winners. And understandably so.

Funny shit.

No, the point is that she built an entire department from scratch, and was rewarded with the title and salary commensurate with the position.

Keep telling yourself that simpleton - Obama does no wrong! She built a department and was paid $120K for managing it - this is obviously the going rate for this job or she would have looked for another one. As soon as Obama gets elected as a Senator - her salary goes up 300% and her job stays EXACTLY the same. Obama then tries to score a $1M earmark for the hospital.

Yes, in your simple mind, these things all just happened to occur, no causality. Keep telling yourself that moron - thinking people can see through the bullshit.

His wife is a fucking bitch who said she'd never been proud of America until some said her husband was swell...

Fuck her... If she can't find anything to be proud of in America except her husbands success she deserves a slap in the mouth... Obama needs to man up and get his wife under control...

Tell me that if you worked hard and earned a promotion and a raise you would reject it. Give me a break.

If my wife was elected US Senator and 2 months later I was offered a 3x raise for doing the same job, I just might question what the company had in mind for the promotion and why my value to the company went up 300% instantaneously. For Michelle, she obviously did not have these concerns as she knew exactly why she received the 3x raise as evidenced by Obama's attempt to push through an earmark following the promotion. The fact that he could not even get that through should show you what an incompetent boob he really is...

If you are married to a public official that has 'hope and change' as his only qualification, you should go out of your way to keep everything above board. Accepting a 3x raise was a poor decision - Obama trying to push through a $1M earmark was even worse...

What time is it?
It is Obama Double Standard Time!!

"She built a department and was paid $120K for managing it"

And she built and managed it successfully.

Hmmm....what was Bush paid to run those two businesses and a country he MISmanaged right into the ground??

Ms. Obama was severely underpaid.

"and her job stays EXACTLY the same."

You just keep saying that over and over, yet have offered not a single shred of evidence that it is true. So unless and until you are able to do so, I'll put you in the same category with the Cheney's and Rumsfelds of the world. Repetition of a lie does not make it truth.

If you don't want the wife or spouse to be criticized--don't let them talk or make statements that inject themselves into a campaign.

So now Michelle can say anything and not be called on it?

What a wimp!

It doesn't sound like he can take the heat much less keep control of what Michelle says.

Good one, Evil

Spearchucker!

Once again I say - If Obama can't influence his wife on the home stage to tone it down with her statements on the campaign trail, how in the hell does he expect to influence world leaders on the world stage?

Maybe he ought to shrink her head like the CarMax commercial. At least when she would talk everyone would laugh too hard to hear what the American-Hating slut says anyway.

And if Obama thinks Bill Clinton's remarks are fair game to criticize when he is speaking on the campaign trail, what gives with this "lay off my wife" business?

Check out Barry Hussein Crybaby's first official endorsement deal.

www.youtube.com

Michelle can say what she wishes. People may make her a target as they wish. All Obama's said if if the GOP wants to do that, it has ramifications.

I've watched the TN GOP ad twice now. First time I thought there's no way I heard them actually drop the audio on "really" in her statement. Second time, there was no doubt. This ad doesn't just use Michelle making her statement, it edits the audio to make it reflect the lie the GOP's propagated.

Do they realize how absolutely pathetic that makes the TN GOP look?

What's he going to do, Yav? Sounds like a threat to me.

Go here and listen to her, Yav. She said the same thing twice in 2 different speeches, but left out the "really" part the second time she said it.

Yav, you mean kinda like how NBC edited its interview with president Bush to look like he agreed with the reporter?

You and Bush should thank your lucky charms for the editing. The full video's on NBC's website. It's MUCH, MUCH worse if you watch the entire thing. I was amused when the WH protested. Now I'm stunned the WH would protest!

Go here and listen to her, Yav. She said the same thing twice in 2 different speeches, but left out the "really" part the second time she said it.

OH MY GOD! She didn't!

Hey, did you hear about Al Qaeda being supported by Iran? Catch it the first time? Second time? Third time? Fourth?

Larry, it really shouldn't matter.

Yav, in my opinion "really proud" is worse than simply "proud".

Its kinda sad that with all the blessings afforded to her because she lives in this country, that she couldn't feel "really" proud of her country before now.

Hahahaha! Check out the TN GOP website! They're running against Michelle! There's hardly a mention of Barack!

Larry...I totally disagree.

Never having held an office doesn't give Michelle Obama any special rights or freedom to speak her mind without being held accountable.

I've said before, the republican smear machine is going to tear Obama up.

He's already showing cracks.

Wahhhhh....leave my wife alone....wahhhhh...

I suggest she stay out of the limelight if she doesn't want to be a target.

Like everyone has said, he's running for office, not her.

She should be smart and be quiet. She certainly has the right to speak her mind, but the Obama's should pull their heads out of Pollyanna land and realize they're playing with the big boys now.

Obama accused GW of calling him an appeaser, like Neville Chamberlain. Then he said he'd sit down with any leader, no pre conditions.

Does that mean he would have sat down with Adolph Hitler, if he were alive today??

Yes, Neville Chamberlain, the CONSERVATIVE PM of ENGLAND.

I realize that 400,000 dead US soldiers means nothing to you, but perhaps some of those could have been avoided, but you surely wouldn't want that!

BillJ, AnAmerican, et al -

I agree with you. If the Republican Party wants to go after a man's wife to get at the man, then they should feel perfectly free to do so. It says more about the low and sorry state of the Republicans than anything else.
On the positive side, at least they didn't have to wreck the career and compromise the lives of all the previous contacts of a NOC CIA asset this time, not that that would stand in their way, of course.

Obama is such a pansy bitch. The guy is in BIG trouble.

Did any of you guys notice that Obama backed his wife, in almost the same words, and same way he backed Rev Wright for months and months? He used strong words, etc.

So my question is.

When the heat is turned on, which has barely just begun, when is he going to toss his bitch wife under the bus?

When she gets tossed under the bus, I will finally be proud of my country.

LOL what a bitch.

Kuma

"When the heat is turned on, which has barely just begun, when is he going to toss his bitch wife under the bus?"

McCain already did it to his first wife, the mother of his children. He did so probably because she was crippled in an accident, but also in order to marry the rich young woman he was cheating with. I doubt McCain will throw her under the bus, though- it likely wouldn't do any good because she probably owns the bus. Say, when is she going to release her tax records, anyway?

Typical Democrat tactic. Change the subject.

What the hell does tax records even have ANYTHING to do with anything from the wife?

However, if McCains wife said the US is an EVIL COUNTRY, and that she has never been proud of it, you would be all over her.

The more you try to point at McCain, the more it proves our point.

That bitch fucked up, and she is hurting Osucka.

If you don't think that, then you hit your head.

I am saying right now, like I said before, that because of that bitch, Obama is losing 1-3% in EVERY STATE.

Some women, will not vote for Obama because of that bitch. She has hurt him bad.

Well, unless they are black. But then again, those same people think OJ Simpson didn't do it.

LOL to that.

Kuma

Kuma-
You don't like the subject of McCain cheating on the mother of his children and then dumping her for a pretty rich blond girl twenty years his junior?

"What the hell does tax records even have ANYTHING to do with anything from the wife?"

It seemed important when Kerry was a candidate. Not so muchmore now that McCain's wife (whom he married after dumping the mother of his children) is loaded?

What the hell does tax records even have ANYTHING to do with anything from the wife?

Since McCain used his wife's jet?

After purging 5 of the most horribly tainted Lobbyists we know of so far? (54 left to go), what is Cindy making her money on? She's already had to get her $2 Million out of one fund that invested in Sudan. What lobbying is she doing to her husband?

As far as Michelle hurting Obama, she's not. Not with anyone that matters. You don't matter.

These democrats are in a brain FOG.

She DIDNT hurt Obama?

Ok, your right, she got him votes. People LOVE hearing that the USA is evil, and that its a disgrace.

Please, call that fucking bitch up and tell her to say it more.

Your stupid Yav, and I laugh in your face, that bitch is going to continue hurting him.

Well, until he tosses her under the bus, which he will.

Kuma

YAV-
Yeah. That's a funny McCain moment. He's grousing on the campaign trail about having to fly coach, but what he didn't mention was that he frequently flew in his wife's private jet and reimbursed her for the price of an equivalent coach ticket! LOL.

Hell, Kuma, you want to bring the wives into the cage match, right?

McCain has two wives. The former, who raised his children and waited for him while he was a POW, whom he then dumped, and his new pretty rich one who won't release her tax returns.

Somebody today made the point that it was imparitive that Cindy McCain release Her tax Returns so as to reasure the voting public that no outside Foreign influence is there. Makes perfect sense to Me.

Larry Mohr

Larry is watching Fox News....you closet watcher

Larry-
If it makes sense with Bill and Hillary, and made sense with Kerry, then I fail to see how McCain's pretty young heiress wife whom he dumped his first wife for should be any different.

Mccain dumping his wife had to do everything with PTSD...than the money

you guys know that the military has a PTSD problem....and every killing that happens to our guys in Iraq you blame PTSD

See you guys around.

Betelg,

Of course it's different. McCain's a Republican. They can't be hypocrites and release her records.

When you marry 'Operation Head Start' to 'Affirmative Action' what can you expect???... the Obama's think the America owes them the Oval because of their ignorant disdain for the regular people...they have elevated themselves above the 'everyday' man, but try to disguise themselves as such with him a 'V8' bloodline and her the blood of a slave, of which neither can identify..!!! Amazing how and being that he is 'multicultured', that he does not recognize the caucasian side of himself....SHAME..?????? in his arrogant way, YES..!!!!

"Mccain dumping his wife had to do everything with PTSD...than the money"

OK. Have it your way. The Republican candidate has PTSD. That's what Bush and Rove used on him in the 2000 election, so it's not exactly new territory, but what the hell.

Really have to go. Enjoy.

ETC.... Cindy McCain does not owe ANYONE the privacy of her tax returns...what difference does it make?????

YEA..I WON ...I WON ...NOW WHAT

Ain't that the truth BetelG. I swear the right pitched a royal fit about Teresa Heinz Kerry's tax returns but now they think Cindy McCain's is private matter. BULL FUCKING SHIT to the nth degree. Turn about is fair play.

Larry Mohr

Mcbush would not have a career without Cindy. btw, her eyes creep me out

Maybe when Michelle quits stumping for her husband and stops making stupid statements the press will lay off.

Until then, she and her comments are fair game.

Goodness! She's 45 years old and she has never been proud of her country in her adult life until Barry won a few primaries??? That's one high maintenance woman!

The good news is that he will get carpal tunnel syndrome sooner rather than latter.

I wish Obama's wife would join the ECW. Steel cage match. Drop that bitch from the top of the cage on top of a table.

just kidding, to be honest, I could care less about the 08 Presidential election.

Nothing will change, and the country will be consumed with debt and higher prices at the pump, food, and health care.

And there is not a damn thing we can do about it.

All Politicians want is power, they don't care about fixing problems.

The democrats proved this to a T when Pelosi took power. She has done absolutely nothing.

Well, nothing except DEMAND a HUGE private jet the size of air force 1 for her and her friends on taxpayers dime.

Its a disgrace.

Nullifidian

Seriously, thanks for your help with the D drive the other night. I was able to install the McAfee anti-virus software thanks to you.

So now for helping me out I suppose I'll have to be nice to you no matter what you post about me -- well, only for a short while anyway. To show my gratitude, I'll be nice to you for two more days. (I couldn't last any longer than that!) So from now until Midnight on Wednesday, May 21, you will be in a CalifChris-retort free zone before I again beat you up like a pinata. (grin)

Kuma-
What you are saying is that the Republic is damned, so why not be a jerk like you?

This is what you said:

Nothing will change, and the country will be consumed with debt and higher prices at the pump, food, and health care.

And there is not a damn thing we can do about it.


What would bin Laden say different than what you just said?

Seriously, Kuma. You just said that the USA was a fraud as a democratic republic.

ANY TRUTH TO THIS?

I just heard this on local right-wing talk radio out here in California and earlier today on another station.

I'm not spreading rumors but if this is true then there could be BIG problems for Obama.

Here's the link below. Anybody else heard about this video tape of Michele Obama and/or the guy who supposedly has it and is keeping it under wraps for now? Maybe, if this is true, this is why Hillary is hanging in there and not getting out of the race.

And don't get on my case about it because I'm just curious if it's even true at all or if it's just a sabatoge job or if maybe this tape is the reason why Obama wants his wife left alone by the press. If I -- a nobody -- has now heard about it you KNOW the Obama camp knows about it.

New Michele Obama tape to be released?

I can't fucking believe this fuckin' traitor KUMA is saying that shit about the US.....

But I'm off to bold adventure elsewhere.

I guess Nullifidian must have fainted.

OMFG I just heard on TV tonight that there is video evidence that some guy on a blog called The Drudge Retort named CalifChris is a fucking asshole. Sourses say they have video proof of His assholish behavior. Sourses say it has been going on for quite some time. They are waiting upon authenticity backing from a one Karl Rove. We should know more by the end of the week.

PS I am NOT trying to start any rumors now. I am just curious if this is true??

"Seriously, thanks for your help with the D drive the other night. "

You're welcome, Chris. If you have any other PC problems let me know.

Don't worry about being "nice" to me. I can deflect your punches without breaking a sweat. :)

Yes, I know you can. I am absolutely no competition whatsoever when it comes
to trying to get the best of you in any retort.
**grimace**

It's a waste of my time to ever even think I could go mano a mano with you
in a debate with any hope of winning my point.
**almost ready to regurgitate**

You're just the best, Nullifidian!

(Oh, God, what time is it now? 12:26 p.m.?
That means I've got another 47 hours and 34 minutes more of this. Hope I can stand it.)

That's right. Blame the messenger.
I said I had no idea if it was true. Wouldn't you rather know about this alleged video now than in August right before the election? Arianna Huffington had it on her blog. I sure do not want to have some "October surprise" foisted on us and end up with McCain winning the election! That's all we need -- another four years of McBush. Best to find out all we can now.

I TOLD you we need to make sure Obama is totally vetted -- and his wife too. We don't need last minute surprises. We can't afford to lose this election to four years of free trading Neocons like McCain reinfesting the White House.

Holy shit? She railed against Whitey?

Obama is DOOMED.

Please save this for October.

Doomed. LOL

And yes Belteg, nothing will change. We are near 10 trillion in debt, social security is bankrupt, and we are in a trillion dollar war.

And you think its going to be magic and fix itself when Oshithead gets in office?

nothing will change.

But now Obama is doomed.

because if that bitch Michelle railed against whitey, its like in that movie aliens.

GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!

Bye bye!

LOL

NOW instead of SEE YOU IN DENVER!! its!

I WILL PICK UP THE PIECES IN DENVER! LOL

WHITEY IS THE DEVIL! LOL DOOOOOOMED

Kuma

I disagreed and didn't like her comments but knew she screwed up and meant to say "I have always been proud to be an American but I see a movement coming to finally get rid of corrupt government and I am proud to be one of millions of people backing just the man to lead us in that direction".
No she didn't say this but she meant it and if some republican attack dogs are goning to be after her then I will speak out for her because there are millions and millions of us who are more proud than ever to stand up and be counted.

Funny how the Obama supporters always have to come out and say what Obama or his wife REALLY meant to say afterwards when their statements are inflammatory. Joe, your interpretation really stretches it.

Perhaps Joey can read minds. H knew exactly what Barry's wife meant to say because he read her mind. It is interesting that she didn't correct herself until the media picked it up. She is a liar just like Barry

I think Barry's campaign will be in trouble when the videotape of Michelle Obama talking about evil whitey comes out

Cali,

I am glad Nulli helped you out and it should be clear that he is really a good person.

In the past we (Nulli and I) have had great conversations and he has given me some great references as to what reading materials on our global economy. I appreciate his insight in most subjects and his ability to keep the subject objective on Q.

I find it odd that you would want to cross swords with him, his stands on issues are very close to yours.

Califchris - the last line in your link sums it up:

At a minimum this rumor is out there.

After all, isn't that all that matters?
