Katie Couric you are the worst interviewer I have
ever seen. You don''t even try to hide your brazen
attempt to disguise your support for Barack Obama.

dante, Sen.Obama is just trying to reach out to Bush voters.
They have worshipped over 7 years of half-truths and lies.

The nastiest of neocons, William Krystol, has made an amazing turnaround on Hilary. He''s now concerned about "the liberal media failing to give Hillary Clinton the respect she deserves."
Can you believe that???
After all these years of putting her down and not even giving Hilary the chance to come up for air the neocons are now distressed she''s trailing a black fellow and are blaming the media for it.
Once again the neocons are displaying the worst of themselves with their hypocrisy and childish behavior.
They are a bunch of troublemakers who belong in the streets like the gangsters they are, and not in the halls of power.

mudrose - so the company that owns the company that owns the company that published the McClennan book ALSO owns an investment fund that is co-run by George Soros. That''s a little bit of a stretch, don''t you think? Do you even know how capitalism works?

Obama the GREAT liar: During the Memorial Day speech in New Mexico, Obama suggested his grandfather, the late Stanley Dunham, engaged in combat. But the Democratic senator''s autobiography says his grandfather never saw "real combat." "My grandfather signed up for a war the day after Pearl Harbor was bombed, fought in Patton''s army. He saw the dead and dying across the fields of Europe; he heard the stories of fellow troops who first entered Auschwitz and Treblinka. He fought in the name of a larger freedom, part of that arsenal of democracy that triumphed over evil, and he did not fight in vain." Gramps returned from the war never having seen real combat, and the family moved to California, where he enrolled at Berkeley under the GI bill," he writes.

Army records apparently contradict Obama''s claim his grandfather signed up the day after the Pearl Harbor attack. Obama''s 2002 claim his grandfather enlisted in the Army the day after the bombing of Pearl Harbor is contradicted by Army records showing Dunham signed up June 18, 1942 %u2013 six months after Pearl Harbor. And on the Senile front: First it was the "I visited 57 States" , now he''s seeing dead people. Obama saw "fallen heroes" in the audience. The statement apparently was scrubbed from an official transcript on Obama''s campaign website. LOL. What Sheeple.

Now that we know Bush authorized the leaking of Valerie Plame''s identity, and since we also now it is a high-crime to leak a cia agents name there should be no argument that Bush needs to be tried for treason.

McClellan is attempting to clear his conscience by telling the truth about something of which he is ashamed. What a novel idea! How often does anyone in politics, especially Republican politics, tell the truth about anything? Hmm, let me think. Uh, Uh, well, I''ll have to get back to you on that.

And the same people who thought he was a great press secretary when he was towing the line and regurgitating the BushCrap are now attacking him relentlessly.

"He only did it for the money", or "That''s not the Scott we knew", or just outright call him a liar. Think hard now, who has a documented history of over 900 lies? Is it Scott, or maybe is it George. By gosh, I think it''s George.

234 days, 12 hours, and 22 minutes before we get some relief.

And lefty you lie like a rug and accuse everyone else of twisting the truth. A true dimnowit is what you are.

There you go again, lying through your teeth. I dare you to prove anything I''ve said is a lie. You can''t. I ACCUSE YOU OF LYING not everyone else. You don''t twist the truth, you just flat out lie about it. Yes, I am a true Democrat not a ''dimnowit'' as you call it. I''ve got you pegged. I can tell when you get frustrated... the lies and name calling gets more intense. You avoided answering my call for you back up what you state with anything resembling the truth. Like I said... YOU are delusional and live in an eternal state of DENIAL. You have NO CREDIBILITY! Ha! Ha! Ha!

McClellan says he''s "a centrist." Translation: he has no principles. No wonder he''s stuck between Obama and McCain -- they don''t either.

Real change will never come from either major party because the candidates must focus on politics over principles.

McVet, honestly, how far back does your memory go? Does it end before the hated Bush, do you recall both Dems and repubs said the same thing about Sadam? Do you recall the fact that the DEMS have performed multiple investigations into pre-war intelligence and found it was flawed but also found no evidence of lies. Now that the Dems have been the majority party in congress for two years, don''t you find it strange there has been no impeachment proceedings started? Even in McClellan''s book he stated there were no intentional lies. Unlike you I will support whoever the American people elect in 08. My politics does not involve the blaming of America for the actions of dictators and terrorists. I will never call or classify a fellow citizen a Nazi or worse. You are truly an example of what is wrong with modern America and the hipocrisy of your rants is evidence of your profound hatred and ignorance.
