The GOP can''t run on their record of success because they''ve only got massive failure to show for their time in power. That''s why they run with smear and fear. Americans see through it and are tired of it.

If Obama wants us to lay off of his wife, then maybe his wife should keep her big mouth closed!!!

This assclown runs a pretty good racket. Comments by Bush - he makes it out to have been about him. Now it''s about ''his wife'' when no one said anything about the beotch.

He''s carefully setting himself up as being victimized adn thus deflecting legitimate discussion because PC RINOs will not cross the line.

Very clever play of race.

OBAMA IS THE ONE WITH NO CLASS- HE DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO TREAT PEOPLE RESPECTABLY AND THEN WHEN HE SAYS SOMETHING INSIGNIFICANT HE APOLOGIZES NOT BECAUSE HE IS SINCERE BUT BECAUSE HE WANTS TO APPEASE THE PUBLIC. WHO IS THE HYPOCRIT HERE? SURELY YOU GEST

Michelle Obama is so negative it''s impossible for her not to be an issue. Every time she opens her mouth it''s an America that is doomed and gloomed. If your wife isn''t running for President, then maybe she should keep her big stupid affirmative action mouth shut.

The republicans are really not only low-class-they are classless! When they have no ideas, nothing to pin on someone, they go attack the spouse and other family members. They keep on saying that they are the party of family values, but have shown in their own deeds and words that they are in fact the opposite. During the last year, check out how many republican law makers have been caught in situations with both male and female other than spouses. Then comes a public apology and they think this should resolve it? The republican motto seems to be "do as we say and that does not apply to themselvles". But going after anyone else other than the candidate is the lowest they have stooped to, ever.

WHAT A HYPOCRIT! IT IS OK HOWEVER FOR HIM TO MAKE COMMENTS ABOUT MCCAIN AND HIS WIFE- OR BILL CLINTON- THE WHOLE OBAMA FAMILY IS PART OF THE PROCESS- AND IF ''MICHEELE'' SAYS SOMETHING STUPID SHE SHOULD ANSWER FOR IT. BOY, IS HE EVER INEXPERIANCED!!

So many gutless wonders trash Hillary Clinton almost hourly, yet have the nerve to berate someone else for alleged criticism of women. What arrogance and elitism.

There''''s only one reason Obama has defeated Hillary for the nomination. The far left in the Democratic Party decided it was OK to slap around a woman, to lie about her, to use their filthy macho ego ********* jokes, to distort her statements and positions but boxed in the Clinton campaign so that any strong criticism of Obama''''s positions and questions about this experience, judgment and character were made to appear racist.

I dare and defy you gutless wonders to criticize anybody for lashing back at this racist old gasbag grump and calling her out on HER OWN WORDS that are on videotape all over the net!

Too bad the ''claws come out'' when you d/amn this country!

Remember this.

We the people in order to form a better nation. We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

When did it all go astray?

Make this election an historic 21st Century turning point in our national politics when the American people had their modern day resurgence to tear down the ivory towers of political cronyism and arrogance.

If the people dont win this one, if the people dont make politicians answerable now to us then we the people might not get another chance to really change the course of our prevailing political descent into an abyss of public desolation.

All those in power must play or pay by our rules not some privileged artificial construct of democracy without public accountability or rebuke.

Voters fix your bayonets of virtue and lunge toward a ballot box near you to save our nation from the enemy within.

Vote for them in political battle trenches isolating our nations leaders from their own citizens and putrefying spirit and intent of our countries founding principles.

If required, vote with your best gut instinct not with your party politics.
