Wal-Mart Is A Company I Wouldn’t Support - LIAR, your wife has received nearly a quater of a million dollars through Treehouse, which is connected to Wal-Mart. 51.)

University Of Chicago Hospital Pay Is Fair - LIAR, your wife’s pay raise was nearly 150% her already bloated rate and the hospital is a Non-Profit Hospital, which made $100,000,000 in the last 3 years. They overcharge blacks VS whites for services, and overcharge everyone in general by 538%! 53.)I Barely Know Rezko - Only 5 Billed Hours - LIAR, you have known him for 17 years, and decided to do a real estate deal with him during a time when he was proven to be under investigation. Despite this, you divided your property and had them take off $300K before the mortgage problems started. Then Rezko’s wife buys the lot beside it that you can’t afford, saving you $625,000. 54.) My Donations Have Been Checked Thoroughly - LIAR, you only gave back Hsu ($72K) and Rezko (first $66K, then when caught lying $86K, then when caught lying again $150K and now caught lying YET AGAIN OBAMA, it’s $250k) their money when publically called on their involvement in your campaigns. 55.) My Church Is Like Any Other Christian Church - LIAR, your church is so extreme, the pastor who married you, Rev. Wright, just got done blaming the US for 9/11 and named Louis Farrahkan their person of the year. 56.) I Disagree With My Church All The Time - LIAR, you still have yet to repudiate Wright, who married you and your wife, and you still donate large sums of money to assist the church in furthering its message - hatred and revenge. You donated in 2006 alone, $22,500 to the church that you so terribly disagree with. That is nearly $500 PER WEEK - that sure is disagreement, Senator Obama. 57.) I Have Clean Connections Despite Rezko - LIAR, you are not only connected to Exelon and Rezko, you are also connected to Hillary PAC supporter Mr. Hsu, AND an Iraqi Billionaire of ill repute, Nadhmi Auchi, who ripped off people in the Food For Oil, Iraqi deal. Seems Mr. Auchi may have helped Obama buy his million dollar property long before Obama had millions of dollars. Wonder what favors Mr. Auchi expects, when Obama leaves Iraq free to be taken over by special interests such as him. 58.) I never heard sermons like Rev. Wright’s, that have been in videos all day, You Tube - LIAR! 3 days later during your Mea Culpa BS speech you said “Did I hear controversial statements while I sat in that church? Yes I did.” 59.) The Passport Invasion is a conspiracy to find dirt on me! - LIAR. Your own Campaign Foreign Policy Advisor is the CEO of the company that looked into your records. PS - You had them look into yours to hide the fact you looked into Clinton’s and McCain’s more than a year before! 60.) Rev. Meeks has nothing to do with my campaigning - LIAR. Rev. Meeks appeared in ads for your Senate Campaign, donated to you, and helped raise money, then AND NOW. PS - He also seems to despise America. 61.) My wife didn’t mean America is ignorant, she was just using a phrase - LIAR. Again, Michelle's comments perfectly sync with Wright’s, Meeks’, and Farrakhan's, both in language, anger, and direction. 62.) I am very Anti-Terror - LIAR. [03/30/2008] One of your good pals is long time radical and terrorist William Ayers, with whom you have been seen in the last 12 months and who has helped the now jailed khalidi, Professor at Columbia who invited Ahmadinejad to the University, to raise money for Palestinian terrorism attacks against Israel. PS - Your church published a pro Hamas Manifesto - guess you weren’t there on THAT Sunday either? How lucky for you. 63.) I have the best plan to cure the Mortgage Crisis - LIAR. [03/30/2008] You and your campaign buddy Penny SubPrime Bank Collapse Prizker have had your little fingers full of subprime cash - Obama has taken $1,180,103 from the top issuers of subprime loans: Obama received $266,907 from Lehman, $5395 from GMAC, $150,850 from Credit Suisse First Boston, $11,250 from Countrywide, $9052 from Washington Mutual, $161,850 from Citigroup, $4600 from CBASS, $170,050 from Morgan Stanley, $1150 from Centex, and last but certainly NOT LEAST - Obama received $351,900 from Goldman Sachs. I am sure that cash all came from folks who knew the subprime loan they had was a dream, eh? 64) I played greater role in crafting liberal stands on gun control, the death penalty and abortion - LIAR - [03/31/2008] It was found that Obama — the day after sitting for the interview — filed an amended version of the questionnaire, which appears to contain Obama’s own handwritten notes added to one answer. Read Obama had greater role on liberal survey 65) I did NOT play the race card: - LIAR - [03/31/2008] Obama was the first to play the race card. According to Philadelphia Inquirer, Quietly, the storm over the hateful views expressed by Sen. Barack Obama’s pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, has blown away the most insidious myth of the Democratic primary campaign. Obama and his surrogates have charged that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has deliberately and cleverly played the race card in order to label Obama the “black” candidate. 66) I did not take money from oil companies: - LIAR - [03/31/2008] THE FACTS: True enough, Obama does not take money from oil companies. No candidate does. It is illegal for corporations to give money to politicians. Corporations, however, do have political action committees that collect voluntary donations from employees and then donate them to candidates. Obama doesn’t take money from PACs. He also doesn’t take money from lobbyists. But he does accept money from executives and other employees of oil companies and two of his fundraisers are oil company executives. As of Feb. 29, Obama’s presidential campaign had received nearly $214,000 from oil and gas industry employees and their families, according to an analysis by the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. Clinton had received nearly $307,000 from industry workers and their families and Republican Sen. John McCain, the likely GOP presidential nominee, received nearly $394,000, according to the center’s totals. Two of Obama’s fundraisers are Robert Cavnar, the chairman and chief executive of Houston-based Mission Resources Corp., and George Kaiser, the president and CEO of Tulsa-based Kaiser-Francis Oil Co. Source: Associated press via Yahoo News 67) “I don’t think my church is actually particularly controversial,” Obama said at a community meeting in Nelsonville, Ohio, earlier this month. - LIAR - But yesterday, he told a different story. “Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes,” he said in his speech yesterday in Philadelphia. 68) Look at my education record in Illinois - LIAR - In reality, Obama never really championed the local councils. He supported them behind the scenes and only eventually came out publicly on their behalf. When he did weigh in, he came down on the wrong side of the debate—against protecting principals from unwarranted dismissals and in favor of keeping councils independent, no matter what. In the end, the resolution of the conflict between the two sides didn’t alleviate anyone’s concerns. Instead, it prolonged a turf battle that seems to have dragged down academic progress in the years since. Read more here http://www.slate.com/id/21880... 69) “I stopped smoking. I stopped smoking. I haven’t had a cigarette since I quit - LIAR - But in his own words, here is what Obama said. Except….last night on MSNBC’s Hardball, Obama admitted that his attempt to wean himself from the vile tobacco weed had not been entirely successful. I fell off the wagon a couple times during the course of it, and then was able to get back on,” he said. “But it is a struggle like everything else.” 70) I did not campaign in Florida, (so Florida vote shouldn’t count) - LIAR -According to Boston Globe, Herald Tribune and other sites, Obama airs “ads” on Cable stations in Florida. Even with the Florida cable ads, Obama still lost. From herald tribune.com Obama’s Florida ads bust pledge 71) Obama distort (aka “Lie”) about McCain saying, “McCain (he) is willing to send our troops too another war of 100 years in Iraq”. Obama also denied what he said on the video - LIAR - The video proves him absolutely untruthful (”a liar”). 72) Obama on Guns - when Obama ran for the Illinois state senate the political group, Independent Voters of Illinois (IVI), asked him if he supported a “ban [on] the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns” and he responded “yes.” - LIAR- But in what will probably be the most improbable change, the Politico reported on Saturday that Barack Obama was making a big play for gun votes in Pennsylvania. In 1998, another questionnaire administered by IL State Legislative National Political Awareness Test didn’t ask about banning all handguns, but it did find that Obama wanted to “ban the sale or transfer of all forms of semi-automatic weapons.” 73) Here is what Obama now said he meant about comment he made about Small town PA - “So I said, ‘Well, you know, when you’re bitter you turn to what you can count on,’ ” he continued. “So people they vote about guns, or they take comfort from their faith and their family and their community. And they get mad about illegal immigrants who are coming over to this country or they get frustrated about, you know, how things are changing. That’s a natural response.” - LIAR - See what Obama really meant in red. It does not take high school student to understand what Obama meant - “You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them…And they fell through the Clinton Administration, and the Bush Administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations. 74) “I did not recall meeting Nadhmi Auchi at any time or on any occasion” - LIAR - But a government witness said on Monday, during Antoin Rezko’s corruption trial, that he recalled seeing Sen. Barack Obama at a party that Rezko held in 2004 to honor Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born tycoon. Two other guests at the party declared the Obamas were present at the event, which took place one week before Obama won his U.S. Senate seat. 75) “I did not take money from oil companies” -LIAR- It is against the law to take money from oil companies. None of your opponents take money from oil companies either. 76) “I am the only candidate who isn’t taking a dime from Washington lobbyist” - LIAR- The record shows quite the opposite. According to USA Today, Obama’s campaign fundraising team includes 38 members of law firms that were paid $138 million last year to lobby the federal government, records show. Those lawyers, including 10 former federal lobbyists, have pledged to raise at least $3.5 million for the Illinois senator’s presidential race. Employees of their firms have given Obama’s campaign $2.26 million, a USA TODAY analysis of campaign finance data shows. -----------------------------------------------------------
  3. after 9-10 years i guess Bush thought diplomacy wasn't working. Between 1992 & 2002 everthing unscom tried was blocked or delayed by Sadam. Sadam did everything in his power to not follow what he was supposed to. talk can only go so far and most of us (congress and the people) were tired of talk and wanted action. Bush did what the popular vote & congressional vote wanted. there are mistakes from both sides and WE put ourselves in the position WE are in and now it is time to pay for those decissions. Is the price high? yes but very much worth it. I know that you personally didn't want the war but you were the minority and now have to help pay for that, but that is the price of living here in the US. There has been things that I have not liked or wanted but the good is greater than the bad. If Obama gets elected I will have to deal with his tax increases and mistakes just like I had to deal with Clintons.
  4. perfect example of the left saying ok lets go then they stand back and blame everyone else for the results. just like Iraq , they said ok lets do it then they said look what bush did and how much he cost us
  5. It was 4% in 2000. Yes it's up, no argument there. But you act like it's all Bush's fault. What's congress doing? The stock market being down 3% is Bush's fault and that means we shouldn't vote for McCain? The Dow was roughly 11,000 in 2000. It closed yesterday at 11,220 with a 52 week high of 14,200. Wow, an annual return of 0.25% during the Bush presidency. Amazing economic performance. The reason we SHOULDN'T vote for McCain is that he represents the same party that brought us G.W. Bush. and most of that loss is while the dem's have controled congress
  6. the dem's did vote for the war and let be see 6.1 % unemployment now and the dems have controled congress for the last 2 years, doesn't sound good for the dem's
  7. Presidents propose legislation. yes but only signs what congress gives him. since the democrats control congress i guess they are giving Bush shit to sign. congress has a lower aproval rating than Bush. when are the democrats going to take responsibility for their share of the mess? when are the democrats going to own up to their share of the really poor aproval rating?
  8. So the guy who votes with Bush +90% of the time, and has himself been part of the PROBLEM he identifies for +20 years, is going to be the agent of change? Anyone who believes that is an imbecile. (I expect they also believed Bush when he promised no nation building, and a small and short term deficit - suckers!) This is honestly one of the dumbest and most idiotic things that I have heard at the DNCC and in the talking points over the last couple of months as the Democrats try and tie McCain as the third term for Bush. It is an effective campaign attempt but it does not make any sense. Has it occurred to you that George Bush doesn’t have a vote in the Senate? So just how do you measure the percentage of times that McCain is voting “with” the president? Well, perhaps you could measure the number of times that a Senator votes with the Republican members. Ahhh … but remember, most Senate votes are unanimous. This would mean that the only way not to “vote with the president” would be not to vote at all. As Dick Morris wrote: “The fact that McCain backs commending a basketball team on its victory doesn’t mean that he is in lockstep ideologically with the president.” Morris also points out a series of important issues on which Bush and McCain did not agree: McCain fought for campaign finance reform — McCain-Feingold — that Bush resisted and ultimately signed because he had no choice. McCain led the battle to restrict interrogation techniques of terror suspects and to ban torture. McCain went with Joe Lieberman on a tough measure to curb climate change, something Bush denies is going on. McCain opposed the Bush tax cuts when they passed. McCain urged the Iraq surge, a posture Bush rejected for years before conceding its wisdom. McCain favors FDA regulation of tobacco and sponsored legislation to that effect, a position all but a handful of Republican senators oppose. McCain’s energy bill, also with Lieberman, is a virtual blueprint for energy independence and development of alternate sources. After the Enron scandal, McCain introduced sweeping reforms in corporate governance and legislation to guarantee pensions and prohibit golden parachutes for executives. Bush opposed McCain’s changes and the watered-down Sarbanes-Oxley bill eventuated. McCain has been harshly critical of congressional overspending, particularly of budgetary earmarks, a position Bush only lately adopted (after the Democrats took over Congress). Using the same methodology you would probably find that most Democrat senators also voted with Bush 90% of the time. ------------------------------------------------------------ i Think it is kinda funny that when someone pionts out the real truth about things, like you have, the left goes on with other things and completely ignores this post. I didn't think it was bad to vote with Bush 90% of the time, I thought it was the 10% against Bush that made the difference.
  9. I think you have failed to understand the nature of the Presidency and nature of leadership in general. Any monkey can lead if everything is going right. What makes a great leader and shows his true character is how he deals with the situation of everything going wrong. In this regard, George W. Bush has been an abysmal failure. I guess that makes Clinton a monkey As far as katrina goes Bush moved more and suplies into a disaster area faster than ever before. he just got a late start thanks to the democratic govener and mayor being stupid. but then why would we want to actually blame the ones that said "there is no need to evacuate" and " don't worry mister president the levees are ok"
  10. i guess nobody saw the report the other day about how pissed off Pakastan was after we went a couple miles into pakastan to get some militants. Bush has tried to get in there for years. Mow the afgan gov doesn't want air attacks. this is going to get harder not easier.
  11. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.i know that congress didn't make the prices but they haven't done anthing to help the situation. What can they do, give us another $600 gift and run the debt up another 100+B? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.when Clinton wouldn't allow Anwar drilling, because it would take to long to see results and the dem's won't allow offshore drilling, these have helped condem us to higher prices and more dependancy on foriegn oil. The Republicans act as if we have othr planets to invade, kill the inhabitants and takeover. The ecological damage could be catastrophic. As well, I think the idea is to use everyone else's oil first. >>>>>>>>>>>>>this has caused alot of problems with deficits in the economy. Really? Clinton inherited 290B/yr annual deficit and left 236B surplus, which Bush then immediatley gave it back and then cut taxes and will increase the national debt by 4 1/2 trillion $ in 8 years and Clinton's oil policy is to blame? Yea.....ok. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>drilling won't solve the problems but they will ease the problem until new technology can take over. Parking SUV's would help a lot, I drive a GEO. There are a lot of things we can do, just drilling isn't the answer. i didn't say drilling would fix the problems nor did i say oil prices caused the currant economic problems. i said that drilling will ease the problems until new technologies can take over. also clinton did leave a deficit and not all this currant deficit is only Bush's fault. when are the demodrats going to own up to their votes that gave Bush the ok to go to war? the democrats are in control of congress and they voted in the surge in Iraq. The popular vote in america wanted the war. why must we keep blaming Bush only for our problem that we got into. remember Bush can only go with what congress gives him. so lets start saying how can WE fix the problem. lets start taking responsibility for our actions. Bush didn't ask for 911 or katrina but got them dropped in his lap and WE as a country have to deal with the results. 911 didn't happen because Bush was president, 911 happened because of the past. Bush didn't cause Katrina he just got blamed for it.
  12. They are getting VD now. If the parents are held responsible maybe they will keep better trac of their kids and that will lead to less drug use, and gang activity and that equalls less pregnancies and less VD.
  13. hold the parents responsible for things the kids do. if they get pregnant make the parents pay, if they steal make the parents pay.
  14. it's to bad the only thing we have to fight about is about how much Obama will raise taxes. if he had voted yes or no instead of present we might have more to go on. but when he did vote he voted for riasing taxes, and letting sex offenders out early.
  15. Reply To -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a few years back Gore had said "maybe we need to inflate gas prices to $5 a gallon so we can get people to start converting to alternatives because of global warming" i say the snip on CNN or fox a couple weeks ago -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And your conspiracy theory is that that's why gas was $4/gal? Not because it is traded on the world market? --------------------------------------------------------- i know that congress didn't make the prices but they haven't done anthing to help the situation. when Clinton wouldn't allow Anwar drilling, because it would take to long to see results and the dem's won't allow offshore drilling, these have helped condem us to higher prices and more dependancy on foriegn oil. this has caused alot of problems with deficits in the economy. drilling won't solve the problems but they will ease the problem until new technology can take over.
  16. but this is a local, parental issue not the feds issue. Parents need to step up and take care of their kids or be held responsible for them, not the feds
  17. you are right the women should decide not the government. this is why i lean more rep because the dems have too many programs they want to control that i don't want them to control. infastructure, laws and military, the rest leave to the states and people. health care, schools, welfare should be run by the states or by the people.
  18. every policy on birth control is, and has been, a failure. the only thing that works, to a certain degree, is ALL parents expressing good values and safe practices to their kids.
  19. a few years back Gore had said "maybe we need to inflate gas prices to $5 a gallon so we can get people to start converting to alternatives because of global warming" i say the snip on CNN or fox a couple weeks ago
  20. i guess we need to watch all the interview of Obama with Oreily on mon, tues, wed night. the part he showed last night told me Obama still can't face the truth about his first open foriegn policy decission being wrong. like was said a couple days ago at the RNC, maybe Obama needs ask Mccain about foreign policy
  21. i say she is 50-50 her son hasn't got anyone pregnant. the government wouldn't need to fund these programs if the parents took care of these issues with their kids and instilled morals in them(and 1 family doesn't work most families need to work at this to reduce pier pressure) . i don't think this is a government issue i think it is a parent issue so i would agree with not funding those programs.
  22. i don't agree with palin's stance on the sex / abortion area but i do believe that this problem is theirs to deal with as they see fit and i do believe she has the right to raise her children by their values, and the media needs to let them alone to deal with it, not crucify them for having a problem.
  23. every birth control method can fail. the best parent can fail. there is no 100% sure way to deal with these problems. just like drugs, gangs and other things. My younger daughter ended up in alot of trouble with the law 11 years ago but we worked on it and got things straight and i am very pleased and proud of the person she has become. everyone wants to condem Palin for a mistake of her daughter but maybe it is just a kid being a kid. i know i put my parents through hell and they stuck by me and i am glad they did.
  24. if i was an Obama fan i would have to declare this is not fair and have it back the other way. haha does make a difference when you give the real numbers doen't it
