Part II

The church holds services three times every Sunday at 7:30 and 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. Central time. While both the early morning and evening service allowed Sen. Obama to attend the service and still give a speech in Miami, Mr. Davis stands by his story that during one of the services he attended during the month of July, Senator Obama was present and sat through the sermon given by Rev. Wright as described in the story. Mr. Davis said Secret Service were also present in the church during Senator Obama''''s attendance. Mr. Davis'''' story was first published on Newsmax on August 9, 2007. Shortly before publication, Mr. Davis contacted the press office of Sen. Obama several times for comment about the Senator''''s attendance and Rev. Wright''''s comments during his sermon. The Senator''''s office declined to comment.

If Hillary can loan 5 million dollars to her campaign then surely the voters have a right to know the source of her funding.

Why wont Hillary release her tax returns? People with nothing to hide don''t usually hide.
The main excuse we''ve gotten so far is that Hillary Clinton just has too much on her plate. "I''m a little busy right now," she said during the Ohio debate. "I hardly have time to sleep. But I will certainly work toward releasing, and we will get that done and in the public domain."
That was three weeks ago. Two weeks ago, Howard Wolfson promised the returns would be released "on or around April 15." But weren''t the returns completed and filed a long time ago? Doesn''t Clinton''s accountant have time to print them out and make some copies (note to Clinton''s accountant: many Kinko''s are open 24 hours).

In short, it''s well past time for Hillary Clinton to be as "vetted" as she claims to already be -- and to have this vetting done now by Democratic voters rather than later by GOP hit squads. She needs to live up to the standard she laid out for Rick Lazio, the opponent in her 2000 Senate race. At that time, she said it was "frankly disturbing" that Lazio was holding back on releasing his tax returns.
What a difference eight years -- and tens of millions of dollars (some of them from questionable deals) -- can make.

I%u2019d like to see real primary in Michigan just to get the candidates visiting us and talking about our economy, which has been steadily going down the toilet since Bush took office. All his speeches about a strong economy a few years back always left out the "except Michigan" statement at the end of every rosy sentence. As a Michigander all I can say about the current national economy is welcome aboard, misery loves company.

You think it is justified to spend millions of dollars to run an election that doesn''t matter, so you can hear them talk about the issues? Don''t they talk about them every day? Do you think if they say something different in Michigan its for any other reason than to capture your vote?????

[jersupporter]

Yes. McVet has it right. I do blame GW and his party of corruption and greed. They are responsible for the enormous debt and economic failures this country is facing. Both Clinton and Obama are excellent candidates...its your HATRED that has blinded you. Posted by zoe2006

Obama''s Rationale for Bid in Jeopardy Over Wright
By Tom Bevan




.....Obama''s handling of the controversy has only raised more questions. Juxtaposed with clips of Wright''s shocking diatribes in ABC News report, for example, was an undated video clip of Obama describing his pastor as "not particularly controversial." Nor did Obama''s claim of never having been in the pews at Trinity Church when Reverend Wright said something incendiary or controversial seem completely believable. As others have noted, Obama was not totally oblivious to Wright''s reputation: in February 2007 Obama rescinded an invitation (at the last minute) for Wright to give the invocation at Obama''s official announcement in Springfield.

The fact that there doesn''t appear to be any record of Obama ever protesting or condemning any of Wright''s outrageous utterances over the years - until confronted with them this week - is particularly lethal to Obama because it only adds to the suspicions that he''s less a principled agent of change than a pragmatic politician trying to have it both ways.......
.......


so Dems supressing the Jewish and older vote in Fla wont get your heir his throne...seat the delegates they did nothing worng no rule was broken thats a DNC Dean-Brazile-Pelosi lie

[ianlou]

Being from Michigan, I shouldn%u2019t pick on Florida on this one.

%u2026.On Thursday, ABC News......Wright doesn%u2019t just epitomize the racial victimization that Obama supposedly transcends; his vision of America is an extreme, racialized version of John Edwards%u2019s already ridiculously overwrought %u201CTwo Americas%u201D schtick.

He says that the United States is responsible for spreading drugs in the inner cities and that it invented the AIDS virus, shopworn and dangerous conspiracy theories regrettably popular amongst poor, urban blacks. He says that the September 11th terrorist attacks were an instance of America%u2019s %u201Cchickens coming home to roost%u201D and that the United States supports %u201Cstate terrorism%u201D against the Palestinian Arabs. %u2026..

%u2026%u2026.This, ultimately, is the ineluctable fact of the Wright controversy. Obama chose Wright to be his spiritual mentor. He chose Wright to marry him and to baptize his children. He chose one of Wright%u2019s sermons as the title for his bestselling book, The Audacity of Hope.

He chose Wright to deliver the invocation at the announcement of his presidential candidacy last year, only to scotch the decision after advisors warned that such a prominent display of the radical pastor was politically risky. ....

We need to help the Dems fight off the Leftest hate America victim agenda it dose help us if they too are taken over by their FRINGES

[pensacola88]

Florida will change to a Democratic GOP!!

They can not deprive and oppress Democrats forever!!

Education will liberate Republicans here from believing they must always find a victim or looser to stereotype and systematically disenfranchise.

Democrats are needed to keep schools modern and diseases from spreading into pandemic proportions!

Democrats are needed to keep elderly from living their last days as dying beggars in the streets!

Democrats are needed to help immigrants embrace the traditions of this nation and adjust to the changes without fear of persecution.

Democrats are needed to keep the Federal constitution strong for everyone!

Everyone is born with two legs and one of them is Democratic!

[mbcsmith]

leave it to the LIBS to disenfranchise millions of voters. The party of corruption will steal this from Obama yet.

[pepperp1]

...dont blame Fla Dem them they did nothing wrong thee did nothing South Carolina didnt do, what%u2019s going on is that Dean-Brazile-Pelosi are suppressing Fla. Dem votes the other 80 percent of the Dem base demographics and their delegates so they can put Obama on their throne. And lose in Nov, so Pelosi stays all powerful and they just continue to blame all these disasters coming up, on the Republicans they are intentionally throwing the election..

[jersupporter]

Its hard to imagine, looking at the present condition of this nation, how anyone could find fault with the Democrats here. They have TWO, very good canidates, who have very good ideas, none of which are even close to the massive failure of what we now have, and you want to hold Florida against them? Better get another cup of Kool Aid there! Sieg Heil Bush Posted by MCVet

Your hatred is blinding. Again I ask - is GW Bush responsible for your Cancer or is the Welfare suppported VA drugs the reason? How will you feel when the Republicans win the last election you will probably ever see? That must drive you insane you hate monger Delusional Vet

[gkc99]

If Hillary shows that she can''t be trusted to keep her word (to abide by the DNC primary rules) with some snaky maneuver now, how could she possibly be trusted as president of the United States?

Answer--not.

[whtpresident]

ianlou, Hey look at Peurto Rico. Its not even a state and their having a primary. Whats with that?

[ianlou]

Great! Florida just can''t let an election pass without *** up it''s outcome. Their delegates will give Florida to Hillary without a valid primary -just watch. Since when do we consider a swamp surrounded by a beach a state anyways?

[whtpresident]

Kool Aid any one? Their serving now at Trinity UCC. Slurp it up! Barry and Shelley are Racially Bigoted Liars.

[whtpresident]

sosoe, does your preacher take the Lord''s name in vain during service. Does he also blame 911 and aids on the white man? Those are all racially bigoted comments. Barry and Shelly are Racially Bigoted Liars.

[mcvet]

And people wonder why the Democrats don''''t get more votes. The behavior of the Party throughout this whole thing has been arbitrary and appalling, and makes those of us who are independents question their ability to run the country. Dear heaven, they can''''t even run themselves without disenfranchising people.

ROFLMAO I''ll bet YOU believed that the Republican''s would Cut Taxes, Cut Spending and Balance the Budget too!! ROFLMAO It''s hard to imagine, looking at the present condition of this nation, how anyone could find fault with the Democrats here. They have TWO, very good canidates, who have very good ideas, none of which are even close to the massive failure of what we now have, and you want to hold Florida against them?

April 15th is April 15th. She''s making a point that legally she doesnt have to produce them until April 15th. Believe me, the Hilster knows these docs are public. I dont think her highly paid CPA''s and attorneys will let anything be out of place. I think also she''s letting Barry stomp his feet about them until April 14th then she''ll release them and say "I told you so". NEXT.. Barry and Shelly are Racially Bigoted Liars.

[whtpresident]

Jock, I believe it was released weeks ago that that money was from one of Billy''s books.
