Obama plans on voting for the NAFTA expansion next week.
Looks like Obama does not care about U.S. jobs. Better
take a second look at this traitor when voting.

It sounds like a lot of Obama''s appeal is based on the fact that nobody really knows anything about him. Let''s all put our heads together and see if we can figure him, Clinton and McCain out. If you''ve heard a definitive statement from any of these three candidates regarding what they''ll do (or try to do) as president, please post it. Also, please post if you have any evidence they''re really committed to it, or how they plan to do it, so we can all decide if it''s realistic.

In America today we have this knight in shinny armor coming towards us promising us deliverance! He never fought a battle, He was present when the other knights fought the battles, and keeps His armor very shinny. When He is with the other knights He speaks as one who fought battles, remember now He never did He was only present, that He can conquer lions and dragons and bring this land America to tranquility. The other knights ask Him of His experience and He just points to the fact that He has shinny armor. These other knights see His shinny armor and wonder why this so called knight calls Himself a knight. This knight in shinny armor states %u201CI can bring CHANGE%u201D. The people without experience in fighting the real battles on issues are transfix on His shinny armor that they do not bother with the issue that He has no experience. The people see this knight as their hope. They point to the other knight who is in charge for now and say this is the reason why we need a knight with shinny armor (with no experience) the knight who is there now had no experience either and we want another one like Him!!!!!!!!!!!

Democrats | 2,025 Needed to Clinch
OBAMA 1,367
CLINTON 1,265
EDWARDS 26

Obama leads over Hilary in delegates'' count by 102. He''s digging even deeper the gap in his favour. American Democrat delegates have spoken from the Mind and the Heart. They sincerely believe Obama holds a great FUTURE for America. And he Does.

Way to go Barack! You have America''s support.

Extremely left leaning liberal, anti war, tax and spend = Barack Obama
Obama has a very obvious anti-military attitude and believes that the best way to handle terrorism is through talking with Islamic Fanatics such a Usama bin Laden . What else do you expect from Hussein Obama but to be lenient to Mass murderer Muslims like Usama who feels happiness in killing innocent men women and children .

Wake up America before it is too late !!! Vote Hillary !!!

-HILARYBOTS AT WORK... This is what America can expect from CLINTONITES. A psy-syndrom called projection. Fearmongering, Fearmongering and more FEARMONGERS...

-Hilary needs to be with the Republicans if she endorses such declaration by her pretended supporters. Unless Jackass99123 shows to be a Repukon.

He lacks experience.

I wonder how many young Obama supporters are of the %u201Centitled generation%u201D. I hear college professors complain that the entitled generation does not value experience, they do not think something has to be earned. And when it comes to grades, they believe that they should receive an "A", and they are entitled to it simply because they showed up. So why would they require their candidate to have the necessary experience to be president?

What is Hussein Obama?
Globalization with the United States bowing at the alter of the United Nations. A weakened military making us vulnerable to attack. Massive entitlements with tax increases to offset the additional spending required.

Less money in our pockets and a general disintigration of our freedoms and liberties as Obama and his liberal friends increase government dependency, creating a more intrusive and powerful Federal System, regulating and taxing private companies out of business while breaking the backs of hard working Americans and those who provide the jobs with a tax burden to cover their spending!
Barack Obama has indicated that in order to fund his many spending proposals he will raise taxes. While serving in the Senate Obama voted against every measure before the Senate to reduce taxes

Do you remember that Mr. Obama expressed indignation and outrage when the SEIU was helping John Edwards---Obama%u2019s very words were %u201CTaking on these groups isn%u2019t just a matter of setting the record straight about me or my positions. It%u2019s about proving that a new kind of campaign %u2013 funded by ordinary people who want something better for all of us %u2013 can defeat the same tired, old political textbook that so many Americans just don%u2019t trust anymore."
The SEIU is running ads (almost 1 million dollars worth) for Senator Barack Obama in Texas. Special Interest groups are disgusting for Clinton or John Edwards but CERTAINLY OKAY FOR OBAMA. Are you going along for the glory day ride?

There was a time when Obama did not apologize. He refused to apologize for removing his American flag pin from his lapel after 911, saying is was not his preferred way to show patriotism.

His preferred method of showing patriotism has been to criticise the US military.

Today Obama appologized for wearing his Osama uniform, saying it had been given to him by relatives. I thought his relatives were poor. It looks like expensive clothing.

But, more than that, why appologize? Why not say he was proud to wear it?
