Mr. Obama wouldn''t lie about his legislative prowess, now would he? Seven years in the Illinois senate, never passed a single bill! Not one! ROFL!
Have a good read, it''s hilarious! (pardon the pun)- Reply to this comment

We are getting to realize you are a jerk too philly sage, but you still have your place and therefore, your right to say stuff, in the scheme of things. - Reply to this comment

You are very welcome, though I probably did not tell you anything you did not already suspect, unfortunately. - Reply to this comment
- I am sick of the Obamas using the "Kennedy" legacy. Sure Fat Teddy supports Obama, since fat Teddy has always had a woman problem, but Robert Kennedy''s family supports Hillary--also I really doubt that either Jack or Jackie would be in the Obama camp. Everybody knows Teddy''s a jerk.

What''''s so bad about his character and patriotism?
He seems to conduct himself in a very respectable manner. Is he unpatriotic because he doesn''''t wear a pin?

phillysage has made racist comments about Obama including in one post of claiming to be a Hispanic and how hispanics would never vote for a black. At other times she/he is hung up on the fact Obama is "not a real black" since he is half black and half white--which is a perplexing thing to hate someone over--since if he is not all black it should be easier for her/him as a Hispanic to like him. Philly sage appears to represent the type of person in America who''s real reason for disliking Obama is skin color--but they must hide that fact by mfg other rationale--as they know that simply repeating about his race would reveal them to be the lowest dregs of humanity, regardless of race. As for the comments about being an American first--most citizens are Americans first==but loving a country and being loyal to it does NOT mean not ever criticizing it --it means defending it against outsiders who have no right to criticize it. (among other things) We should be able to take criticism of our country and the factions in it--and just hope other countries don''t feel a need to invade us and occupy us to sort us out. - Reply to this comment

- Hillary has been virtuous in not attacking Barack Hussein Obama for his biography, including his middle name. But the Republicans won''t be so shy to do so. They will inform everyone about the truth: 1. his dad was not An American, but an immigrant who used the US to get a college degree, and subsequently left the nation (he hated) to resettle in his beloved Kenya!
2. his mom was an atheist who only sought the companionship of foreign men, from Indonesia or Kenya.
3. Hussein really is his middle name. - Reply to this comment
- Why won''''t Hillary release her tax returns?
I wonder why there is no sense of outrage and suspicion over this issue.
Other politicians routinely make these disclosures, and in a timely and meaningful manner.
What is she afraid of? As the saying goes %u201CPeople with nothing to hide, don%u2019t usually hide%u201D.
Surely she is not embarrassed about being poor. Perhaps too wealthy? If so, where did the money come from? If she can afford to lend her campaign 5 million then voters have a right to know the moneys origins.
Is she a war profiteer like VP Cheney? Did she make more money than he on all of this death and destruction?
What about Bill? How many millions did he make on some gas and oil deals he orchestrated with those blood spilling dictators from the ex-Soviet Republics?
I could care less whether one supports Hillary or detests her. Who does not want to see the Clinton tax returns now?
I would like to see a die-hard Hillary supporter attempt to justify keeping this stuff from the voters.
The stink of Clinton hypocrisy hangs heavy in the air because in Hillarys 2000 Senate race against Rick Lazio, she said it was "FRANKLY DISTURBING" that Lazio was holding back on releasing his tax returns and she even sent a staffer dressed as Uncle Sam to taunt him during campaign stops. - Reply to this comment
- HILLARY CLINTON - READY TO LIE ON DAY ONE !!!!
First she denies that she was pro NAFTA. White House schedules have now been released, showing she held several high profile meetings to endorse NAFTA.
Second she tells outright lies about her bullet dodging trip to Bosnia.
Hillarys problem is that voters know how easily the Clintons lie. Next she will say well, it depends on how you define "sniper fire" and "ran" and then %u201CI DID NOT HAVE MILITARY RELATIONS WITH THAT SNIPER%u201D
Misspeaking is one thing, repeating it over and over makes it a FLAT LIE !!
Clinton simply cannot help herself.
She tells a big lie when a small lie will do. And she tells a small lie when the truth will do.
Look at the trouble the country is in because of the lies of President Bush so God help America if this woman ever gets elected.
She cannot win the Democratic nomination without causing a civil war in the Democratic Party. While comparing herself to, and praising, McCain while undermining Obama, make it appear that she is willing to do just that -- split the party in two. Seriously, can you imagine McCain saying that that he had a lifetime of experience, Hillary had a lifetime of experience, but Romney didn''t? That would never happen. It''s unacceptable. And it has to stop.
I get that it sucks to lose. But, it happens. Hillary, drop out with your head up high. Unless of course you''re ducking sniper fire again - Reply to this comment
- phillysage- so you don''t like Obama, but yet will throw your vote to someone who supports exactly the opposite of what Hillary favors???
Where''s the logic in that?

Character issues also have to be considered in a vote for President, also patriotic concerns. I know some people adore him as a Messiah, but frankly that is precisely what concerns me about a President Obama. I have trouble voting in a family as First Family whose First Lady was never ever proud to be an American! I am a liberal and a Democrat, but I am an American first. - Reply to this comment
