HEARS A FUTURE GLIMPSE OF LORD OBAMA PRESIDENCY.



Someone needs to tell Obama we have freedom of speech still in america, he isnt president yet!


%u201CHaving failed in its attempts to get our legal, factual and fully-supported ad off the air, Barack Obama%u2019s campaign now wants to put our donors in prison for exercising their right to free speech," said Ed Martin, American Issues Project%u2019s president. %u201CThese over-the-top bullying tactics are reminiscent of the kind of censorship one would see in a Stalinist dictatorship, with the only difference being that those guys generally had to wait until they were in power to throw people who disagreed with them into jail.%u201D

In addition to two letters sent to the Department of Justice asking the government to investigate American Issues Project, its officers, board of directors, and donors, the Obama campaign has been contacting stations running American Issues Project%u2019s ad in an unsuccessful attempt to compel them to pull the spot. With no success on either front, the campaign has also begun running its own ad in response. Notably, this ad fails to dispute a single fact in the American Issues Project%u2019s initial ad.

McCain is a hero......

Posted by edabel2 at 04:26 AM : Aug 28, 2008

I''ve heard this before but specifically how is McCain a "hero", and btw I''m speaking as a non-hero ex-serviceman who served the same time McCain served.

McCain crashed 5 military planes at enormous cost to taxpayers. That tells me he is incompetent.

Yes he spent over 5 years as a POW but that doesn''t make him a hero. He claims that he refused offers of freedom from his captors. Actually had he taken their offer he would have faced court martial charges for disobeying a standing order. The senior ranking officer at the camp had already issued an order that acceptance of offers of freedom will be only on the basis of seniority.

How do you think Mike Huckabee feels about this?

Is McClone afraid to pick Huckabee because Huckabee told the truth about McClone?

Is McClone afraid to have a God-fearing preacher know his thoughts?

Let''s all send a condolence card to Mike Huckabee. Maybe Gloria Allred can take up his case for him.

During the last 8 years, Clinton, Edwards, Obama, Kerry, Kennedy to name a few democrats have benefited tremendously from those Bush tax cuts. If they thought cutting the tax rate was such a terrible thing, why not pay taxes at the same rate they did during the Clinton years? The truth is that during the Bush years the stream of revenue increased to the federal government. The big problem has been that Bush spent like a crazy man which doesn''t match the word "conservative" at all. The focus should be how to raise more money and how to cut expenses, but instead the dems are proposing to cut the revenue and raise taxes to pay for yet some more entitlement programs. Colin Powell was duped on the Iraq war, and voters YOU and I are being duped by the rhetoric coming from the democratic party that a healthcare plan, tax on carbon emissions, income redistribution is the path the US needs to take. Creating jobs means improving the business environment not hampering it by taxing it more. The path the dems want is really a left leaning socialist plan that will not work for this country.

McCain is a hero, but he does not inspire or instill future hope for the American public. This used to be the Republican trademark. Over the last 8 years the Republican brand has been damaged big time. Due to the Bush / Chaney nightmare.

McCain for the sake of the party, your only hope is to - divorce your love fest with Bush/Chaney and their energy and Black Water lobbyists. Then pick a female as V.P. to target females. Oh ya! pray

If he had a brain it would be RON PAUL, no other excuse for NOT choosing the only man who supports America and her people rather than the Corporate Crooks slithering around BOTH parties.

John McCain to be a "president"??

Of what ???,,,AMERICA ???

Must be ANOTHER John McCain around.

Another AMERICA ??!! ,,That''s it There''s another AMERICA !!

Hear they got one down below the Mason-Dixon line,,,,I betcha THAT''s the America wanting to elect THIS John McCain as their president!!

But what''s wrong with that ???

We''ll have President Obama up here.

They''ll have President McCain down there.

If there are any problems Obama
could just install a missile defense site close the the MD lin.

But, no, the only possible problem would be with The Other American
immigrants sneaking across the line
to work and send money back to their families so that Uncle Homer has the where-with-all to continue his coming up with newer and better rug beaters.
