So here we are Ladies and Gentlemen. The moment of truth for all the Obamaniacs. He has finally engaged the enemy of Hillary Clinton and has once again become the Southside Chicago Politician we all love. With the Clinton war machine in full gear, Obama's top advisors and aides have gone on the attack. In the process, is bringing about the CHANGE this country DOESN'T Need. First we have Top Obama aides talking about NAFTA, telling news outlets Obama's not ready for that 3am call, and now one calling Hillary a "Monster". http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/latestnews/Inside-US-poll-battle-as.3854371.jp HILLARY Clinton has been branded a "monster" by one of Barack Obama's top advisers, as the gloves come off in the race to win the Democrat nomination. Earlier, clearly rattled by the Ohio defeat, Ms Power told The Scotsman Mrs Clinton was stopping at nothing to try to seize the lead from her candidate. "We f***** up in Ohio," she admitted. "In Ohio, they are obsessed and Hillary is going to town on it, because she knows Ohio's the only place they can win. "She is a monster, too – that is off the record – she is stooping to anything," Ms Power said, hastily trying to withdraw her remark. Ms Power said of the Clinton campaign: "Here, it looks like desperation. I hope it looks like desperation there, too. "You just look at her and think, 'Ergh'. But if you are poor and she is telling you some story about how Obama is going to take your job away, maybe it will be more effective. The amount of deceit she has put forward is really unattractive." Ms Power's comments reveal how the inexperienced Obama campaign is coming under increasing pressure from a battle-hardened Clinton camp that saw Ohio as its last chance to save its candidate. Now we have Obama questioning the Clintons tax returns. Yes, the former Attorney and shady real-estate mogul Barrack Obama IS A MAN AFTERALL. He's an ordinary man. He's the SAME OL POLITCIAN LIKE ALL THE REST! He's no Visionary. He's no Political Messiah after all. By the way, When do regular everyday people EVER TRUST A LAWYER? well I guess when you are in trouble by the law. Now we are starting to find out MORE about Obama and his Associates. We have a revelation about Tony Rezko helping top Obama aides getting jobs with the Illinois state. Now we find out Obama is friends with known domestic terrorists. Obama’s connections to Ayers and Dorhn have been noted in some fleeting news coverage in the past. But the visit by Obama to their home — part of a campaign courtship — reflects more extensive interaction than has been previously reported. Ayers and Dorhn are extremist radicals from the 1960's anti-war terrorist group the Weather Underground, and they are unrepentant in the bombings they were a part of. They disappeared in 1970 after a bomb designed to kill army officers in New Jersey accidentally destroyed a Greenwich Village townhouse. They turned themselves over to authorities in 1980. While the Weather Underground claimed 25 bombings, these characters were never prosecuted. Charges were dropped due to improper FBI surviellance. Even today they remain proud of their violent past. “I don't regret setting bombs; I feel we didn't do enough,” Ayers told the New York Times in 2001. Obama does some nice double talk and condemns the actions of the Weather Underground, however he remains good friends with two of them that remain unrepentant for their actions. They helped launch his political career. It is apparent that NEITHER candidate is going to have the necessary votes to win the nomination outright. It will eventually be up the Superdelegates to choose the Dem Nominee. If they give the nominee to Hillary, All of the Obamaniacs are going to cry foul and of course the next thing that will come - is the RACE CARD. Here comes Rev. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Farrahkahn, and of course Obama's Pastor at the Trinity Church, the anti-semitic Rev. Jeremiah Wright, to the rescue. Whether you would all like to admit it or not, Race is going to be a factor come August at the Democratic convention. So here comes that CHANGE Obama promised us. He is going to singlehandedly take us back to the 60's (since he is the next coming of JFK to you Obamaniacs) and make this into a Black and White issue. Oh the joy, oh the riots to come. Thank you OBAMA for the CHANGE and HOPE you promised. Thank you for finally showing YOUR TRUE Southside Chicago colors.
Too ironic. I have always been completely stunned how Clinton supporters can turn a blind eye to their repeated deception and corruption. I don't now how to word it graciously but I'll try; I guess I can understand someone supporting Clinton over others (since it's all relative), but I cannot trust and value the opinions (in the political domain) of those who think the either of the Clintons are 'awesome'.
I don't think the Clintons are awesome - I've NEVER SAID THAT. As I've said in past threads, this was the first time I voted for a Clinton and I am now regreting my decision to vote for her. Believe you me, I know all about the Clintons tactics and deception. However, after my wife had persuaded me to give Hillary a chance, I chose to vote for her in the primary and caucus. However, after witnessing what Obama supporters did and reading more about him, I've come to the conclusion that BOTH CANDIDATES ARE FLAWED. It's a matter of choosing or not choosing between the two evils - if I decide to stay in the democratic party. I was an Independent prior to this election.
Doesn't anybody really believe that this harvard, Journalist Pulitzer prize winning professor really "slipped up"? She was bought off. Perfect timing, when Obama is at his weakest. It is politics at its finest.
I've heard her called far worse. Everything she said has already been said about Hillary for years now.
Yes, Obama with is University of Chicago policy wonks and his willingness to put Republicans in his Cabinet will definately be a radical 60s domestic terrorist who will start race riots and bomb army recruiting stations, just like JFK.
There is no *real* Obama. He's totally fake. He's a media-generated hype machine. Heck, even his own speeches are pirated from others. He has no experience. He has horrible foreign policy instincts (Pakistan, China, Mexico, Canada -- is there a country he hasn't pissed off already?!). His patriotism is in doubt. His wife is out of control and I find her grotesque (not proud to even be an American). His policy positions are so far out of the mainstream it's ridiculous. He is all RAZZMATAZZ. No substance.
Wilingness to put Republicans in office? That's a bunch of BS. That's like saying Hillary would be open to put Obama as VP. So much for your Hope and Change. It's now an all out WAR between Obama and Clinton.
Assumption on my part since you took the time to caucus for Hillary. As a leader, Obama will need to get control over his people. I have read nothing that has made me concerned about his character. What I like most about him is that when he speaks, it's not the pie-in-the-sy garbage that Hillary keeps trying to portray it as, it's that he actually thinks on his feet and uses his own words ... he is intelligent and expressing his own views, and more importantly his views cut through all of the cr*p. Everyone else, esp Clinton, has been fed the ALL words and rehearsed to create a facade which has nothing to do with who they are and how they will lead. Ever been in a debate where the truth was obvious to you, and the debate was seemingly effortless? IMO, that's the source of strength in Obama's oratory.
Ummm, why? Even Bill Clinton put a Republican as Sec of Defense. Obama has always shown interest in learning from and getting advice from the other side - why would it be different here? Good to see you posting more unsourced, biased attack material though. Really shows that you have no agenda at all and are interested in "the truth".
But speaking eloquently and making good judgments are two different things. Right now he's making some BAD Judgments in his own campaign. The will of the American People is that we don't like to see this mudslinging, dirty tactics, and misinformation. He's defintely associated himself with some questionable people in the past, in the present, and his own Top Advisors. So much for GOOD Judgment for the American people. He won't be debating and making speeches once he's in the White House will he? He's already pissing off the press by walking away from questions and his only response was "C'mon guys, I've answered 8 questions already!" This is the REAL BARACK OBAMA we are FINALLY SEEING! A smooth talker with no real substance.
As I said, this is just like Hillary Clinton saying she would run with him as VP! I'll believe it WHEN I SEE IT! Obama has shown he will SAY and do anything to get people's attention and get their votes. You all have been DUPED!
What are you talking about? You voted and caucused for mudslinging, dirty tactics and misinformation! It's the Clintons for God's sake! Cue Rod Serling.
The guy was Harvard law, and could have made big bucks after college, but instead decided to go in civil rights, and community service. The closest thing anyone has to pin on him as politics as usual is he bought a house and so did some shady guy. Nobody in the case has ever said that Obama did anything wrong in the deal, yet this article is quick to label him shady over it. He also attacked Hillary on Wal-Mart. That's about the only evidence we have of politics as usual from him. That's a drop in the bucket compared to Hillary, and other politicians of the past.
You seem to "know" an awful lot about the "real Obama", given that you admitted knowing basically nothing about him a week ago. And your continued ability to recite Hillary's attack points as fact is stunning. You're either the most gullible person on the planet, you're truly clueless, or you have become a caricature like T_J and bigtexxx.
O so backstabbing Alice Palmer to get his Illinois senate seat, while preventing his opponents from getting on the ballot is honorable right? Also as someone earlier posted in another thread... In 2007, more reports surfaced of deeper and suspicious business and political connections It was reported that just two months after he joined the Senate, Obama purchased $50,000 worth of stock in speculative companies whose major investors were his biggest campaign contributors. One of the companies was a biotech concern that benefited from legislation Obama pushed just two weeks after the senator purchased $5,000 of the company’s shares. Obama was also nabbed conducting campaign business in his Senate office, a violation of federal law. But he's not for LOBBYISTS RIGHT?
Call me what you will, but I'm starting to pay more attention to these candidates. I'm by no means a willing Hillary supporter. I am more than likely not to vote for Clinton in the general election..I had my reservations before but was convinced by my wife to give Hillary a chance. After further review of the facts, I have and will continue to question Barack Obama. I didn't realize what I was bringing out are Hillary Attack points. So you are basically saying the Chicago Tribune, Washington Post, and other newspapers that I've been getting this from are WRONG? Well, that doesn't surprise me either as I don't have much respect for them either. However, it is what it is.
