I think you''re right. She evidently hasn''t seen NOT one of the debates, but must not have read the news in six years! She gets her stuff from Esquire!

"Man,..I was just over at ABC, you know the "All Barack Channel",..wow they just keep censoring all anti-Obama posts!! You put it up and 2 minutes later they remove it!! Incredible media bias!!" Posted by OBAMASGRANNY

I have posted my skepticism about Mr. Obama several times, based on real issues, and have had no problem with ABC. Perhaps if your posts weren''t such obvious examples of racism, they would leave it up, but even here, you rarely post any logical reason for your anti Obama hatred, just thinly disguised racial intolerance.

Obama did give a great speach in 2002 when he didn''t have the responsibilty of voting.
Obama and Hillary have both voted 24 times on the war since Obama has been a senator,...only 1 vote different.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but 397 voters on the Iraq war speaks to your disinformation.

No, she has never admitted that she made a mistake in voting for the war!!! Perhaps this is another example of Hillary being to arrogant to admit a mistake...we have a arrogant president who wont admit mistakes in office now. We dont need another George Bush.....

"The information that led up to those votes we know now was a total lie. But we didn''''t know that then!"
Posted by RowdyTexan2

I differ, the information was public back then, Hans Blix, the UN weapons inspector, told the world that after four years of inspections he had found none, and while he believed Iraq willing to develop them, there was no evidence of their existence at the time.

The war mongers were even trying to make Saddam open his houses for inspection. (as if he was stupid enough to store extremely toxic substances in his home) This was a deliberate attempt to make Saddam admit, before all the various factions now fighting for power, that he was defenseless, the idea being that he would be taken out by his own countrymen.

Days before his speech calling for war, Bush''s office received notice from the pentagon that the main sources, "Curveball" and Chalabi, were both BS, "Curveball" being a twice convicted drug dealer, and Chalabi, the guy Bush was going to install as Iraq''s president, was a known conman.

It is ironic that a "layman" such as I knew that the whole rush to war was based on lies and BS, and it is why I condemn the politicians on both sides who must have known, but choose for political expediency to ignore the proof that was out there.

Actually yes, she has questioned her vote, and she has spoke out against it! What is your point?

Pro''bly a lot less than you do. But that''s neither here nor there. Do you have any intelligent conversation to post?

Fact is they started a war on terror in the wrong country, and everyone has admitted it was a mistake, except for Hillary, Bush and McCain....

Now you are totally absurd! She was one of the first senators to start prompting to end the war. She even directed the generals to start putting together an exit plan.

Every plan that Mr. Obama promotes is tax dependent! And we all know who will be paying those taxes.

Obamabots, just can''t seem to get that! They don''t get that our tax money is going to have to be paying for the trillions that we have already wracked up on this war for years! And the audacity to think that the republicans are going to let him tax the rich is absurd! Everyone of them would have to lose their seat in Congress.

Either of the Democratic candidates have a good chance at the White House. They both possess ideas and solutions far superior to Bush and the Republicon camp. Either would make a better President than McCain.

There were 397 votes for the Iraq war. Very responsible votes, considering we had just been attacked by terrorists, actually mercenaries, and those voters could not take a chance on it happening again.

The information that led up to those votes we know now was a total lie. But we didn''t know that then!

This is for consideration and education only. It is not sent to be for, or against, a candidate for our highest office. We are trying to elect a leader of our nation. Our choices are now narrowed to three. Let us all take the time to select the best skilled leader and not be swayed by the politics of party. I would like to see a succinct piece on the other two major candidates.

The real Mr. Obama is an easy target for the general election. Mrs. Clinton is a far tougher opponent. But Mr. Obama could win if people don''t start looking behind his veneer and flowery speeches. His vision of "bringing America together" means saying that those who disagree with his agenda for America are hijackers or warmongers. Uniting the country means adopting his liberal agenda and abandoning any conflicting beliefs.

It''s time to talk about the real Barack Obama. In an election of firsts, let''s first make sure we elect the person who is qualified to be our president in a nuclear age during a global civilizational war.

When Hillary steps down, or when the DNC calls a nominee...then I will face it.

And even then, I''ll be out here posting Obama''s lies about really important issues. And I am very mild compared to what the republicans are going to put Obama thru!

Obama is a corrupt crook! He is a separatist anti-American, and he does not belong in our White House.

But says that Christian leaders speaking for life and marriage have "hijacked" - hijacked - Christianity. He is pro-partial birth abortion, and promises to appoint Supreme Court justices who will rule any restriction on it unconstitutional. He espouses the abortion views of Margaret Sanger, one of the early advocates of racial cleansing. His spiritual leaders endorse homosexual marriage, and he is moving in that direction. In Illinois, he refused to vote against a statewide ban - ban - on all handguns in the state. These are radical left, Hollywood, and San Francisco values, not Middle America values. The real Mr. Obama is an easy target for the general election. Mrs. Clinton is a far tougher opponent. But Mr. Obama could win if people don''t start looking behind his veneer and flowery speeches.

HILLARY''S POOR JUDGEMENT ON IRAQ leaves AMERICANS FOOTING THE BILL:

Look how the WAR IN IRAQ is affecting the US economy...

$3,000,000,000%u20263 billion dollars PER WEEK! That is the amount America is paying for the Iraq War PER WEEK-- money that should have been used here, at home.

Add to this:

INTEREST. We are financing the war with borrowed money (e.g. treasuries) that carries interest; so in actuality, we''re the war is costing the United States MORE THAN 3 billion dollars PER WEEK.

Higher oil and energy prices. Instability in Iraq is adding roughly 30 dollars per barrel as a premium.

Our dollar is weak and getting weaker. Since we have a trade deficit and is growing in large part to the rising cost of imported oil, the value of goods and services we import exceeds the value of goods we export. You know that foreign car you''re thinking of buying or the computer you''re using, or that trip abroad you''ve been thinking of taking....well, guess what? It is going to cost more, Ceteris Peribus, because the dollar is weak, weak, weak.

Start with national security, since the president''s most important duties are as commander-in-chief. Over the summer, Mr. Obama talked about invading Pakistan, a nation armed with nuclear weapons; meeting without preconditions with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who vows to destroy Israel and create another Holocaust; and Kim Jong II, who is murdering and starving his people, but emphasized that the nuclear option was off the table against terrorists - something no president has ever taken off the table since we created nuclear weapons in the 1940s. Even Democrats who have worked in national security condemned all of those remarks. Mr. Obama is a foreign-policy novice who would put our national security at risk. Next, consider economic policy. For all its faults, our health care system is the strongest in the world. And free trade agreements, created by Bill Clinton as well as President Bush, have made more goods more affordable so that even people of modest means can live a life that no one imagined a generation ago. Yet Mr. Obama promises to raise taxes on "the rich." How to fix Social Security? Raise taxes. How to fix Medicare? Raise taxes. Prescription drugs? Raise taxes. Free college? Raise taxes. Socialize medicine? Raise taxes. His solution to everything is to have government take it over. Big Brother on steroids, funded by your paycheck. Finally, look at the social issues. Mr. Obama had the audacity to open a stadium rally by saying, "All praise and glory to God!"

The reality is this: Though the Democrats will not have a nominee until August, unless Hillary Clinton drops out, Mr. Obama is now the frontrunner, and its time America takes a closer and deeper look at him.
Some pundits are calling him the next John F.Kennedy. He''s not. He''s the next George McGovern. And it''s time people learned the facts.Because the truth is that Mr. Obama is the single most liberal senator in the entire U.S. Senate. He is more liberal than Ted Kennedy, Bernie Sanders, or Mrs. Clinton. Never in my life have I seen a presidential frontrunner whose rhetoric is so far removed from his record. Walter Mondale promised to raise our taxes, and he lost. George McGovern promised military weakness, and he lost. Michael Dukakis promised a liberal domestic agenda, and he lost. Yet Mr. Obama is promising all those things, and he''s not behind in the polls. Why? Because the press has dealt with him as if he were in a beauty pageant. Mr. Obama talks about getting past party, getting past red and blue, to lead the United States of America. But let''s look at the more defined strokes of who he is underneath this superficial "beauty."
