This Bush-Cheney Corporation has more "experience" than any other presidential administration ever! Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz have been in government since pre-Nixon days. Decades of "experience" that has literally wrecked a nation at home and abroad. I'm supporting Obama because like many of us, he wasn't gullible enough to buy the WMD marketing scheme. I will go with common sense and conviction over "experience" any election.

Dear Scott, our audience on this sight is not articulate. Don't be too hard on them.

Amazing. Carl Rove calls Obama articulate and the only thing you bafoons take it to mean is that Rove must be evil.

It must be nice to live in a world where you never have to assemble a serious thought and treated as insightful.

At least they concede that he is articulate. For that matter, the present incumbent is so inarticulate that he can't finish a sentence without stumbling around. After five years he still can't pronounce nuclear. Nobody has experience being president until he becomes president and then his advisers steer him though the rocks and shoals. To me he is already head and shoulders over that imbecile, spoiled rich boy, ex coke head and drunken bum who spews out ignorance over the T.V. He and his cohorts should all be impeached. Let him get the *** so we can do it. Surely, there has to be an intern willing to do that, be it male or female.

Homespun, you're a purist and an idealist. Wait - Hillary hasn't even begun to swing at him.

Yep, Experience. The hard drinking, Harkin Oil Bankrupting, Skip from the Guard to HIDE at Harvard son of a CIA chief/President daddy that had more sense about IRAQ! SPOILED RICH KID. He had more experience with the BIN LADENS. He had more experience being bought - see Harkin Oil. He had more experience profiting with a sports team. If that's the kind of experience this nation needs God help us.
Of course there'll be every low down dirty trick in the book tried on Obama. It's already started with the Neocons leading the way. We've already seen crazy accusations about his elementary years, parking tickets, these BACKHANDED COMMENTS, etc. The dirty tricks squad is already in full swing. Forget substance, forget platform, forget clean politics. All that was completely abolished in the last 6 years by our Vietnam skipping, voting machine rigging, fearless leaders.

Chatzatlas, Obama isn't gullible, but are you? One issue does not make a great candidate. Maybe the guy's a wuss and just doesn't like to fight, like the Europeans. They believe in cultural relativism that even if they could muster up enough courage to fight, they couldn't tell you what issue was morally sound. But going with your convictions is a good thing. Having convictions to begin with is great.

Let's be real, what experience does Obama have? Two years in the Senate and how many years served in his home state? He's handsome, knows how to attract an audience and his book has a lot of holes in it re his Daddy. Look really closely at what he represents. Experience, well, we don't have any good record to track him, now do we? I would rather see a person think a situation through before he supports a candidate and know full well what that candidate's record is and what sort of political/social philosophy that candidate represents before I support him/her.

I for one, will take articulate over some idiots (Rove) view of experienced. Put the experienced ones in jail where they belong.

Karl Rove is a pig...a festering boil on the *** of humanity. Whatever he says, the opposite is true.

Who cares what Carl Rove has to say about Obama or anything for that matter? The man should be in jail. Obviously Bush's lack of experience didn't stop Rove from supporting him. I would like the republicans to tell us democrats what experience Obama is lacking that George Bush had. Again, who cares what Carl Rove has to say about anything?

Feedback, I can refute just about every one of your statements. Please don't "articulate" such nonsense.

WOW how funny is that, Bush is about as unexperienced as they come and dumb as a bag of rocks and Rove loves him

Bush never said he was articulate. And "clean" referring to his record. Sorry, he had $$$$ parking tickets from his Harvard days. It starts someplace.

Let's actually examine what Bush, Rove and the Neocon philosophers have done for (to) us while your pals have been "go-ing":

(1) Total distabilization of the Middle East to place it in the worst, and most dangerous, condition it's ever been in.
(2) Total alientation of the European community, with the exception of the UK, which can barely hold on to the pretense that they support this mess.
(3) Almost total loss of our relationships and influence in South and Central America.
(4) Unchecked genocide in Africa.
(5) Deficits and debt so dangerously out of control that your grandchildren will live in a very different and difficult world.
(6) A global climate melt down that is well beyond control already and can only be reacted to for the next 100 years or so (if we actually were to do something signifcant starting today) - Of course this isn't Bush and Companies fault since the "deadhead liberals" have been talking about this problem since the early 60s, but they do seem to be the most adamantly and intentionally ignorant on the subject.
(7) The most dramatic attack on civil liberties ever, based on the Bush and company culture of fear (which is always the last resort of politicians incapable of actually addressing root causes; assuming they are not just intentionally evil).

So true it deserves a repost.

So, Obama is articulate but inexperienced, Mr. Rove?

Well may we remind you that your boss was inexperienced as well. But nobody would accuse our President as being articulate!

THANK GOD Bush and crew can't be reelected. It will already take us decades to unwind the damage they have done in the eight years they've had.

Wow. You really carry around a LOT of baggage, don't you? Maybe you should lighten up a little bit......your outlook on life will probably improve exponentially!
