Obama admin's OPM, headed by a gay man, reportedly blocks lesbian from getting health benefits
"head of his ticket, Sarah Palin," snicker!!!
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain
McCain likes to blow off the Keating mess in typical GOPer fashion...i sinned, i repented, i have atoned, look how righteous i am now...
bull. shit.
Seriously though, what the hell was McCain thinking? Did he think Obama was too nice a guy to get down in the dirt with him?
I worry about a set up. Why did McCain announce his intention to go dirty on Obama? Something doesn't smell right.
The North Vietnamese held them hoping to extort us for ransom money, but the damn Nixon administration didn't want to spend the money on ransoming our soldiers. McCain went along with it and helped the Nixon administration cover up our stingy government that was too cheap to ransom our soldiers.
I wonder if Mayor Daley--who was upset with the McCain campaign for some ads they did claiming his brother was one of Obama's alleged shady "Chicago Machine" connections--had some inside info. on what was coming.
Asked if he is suggesting a Keating Five ad, Daley shot back: “It would be a great ad. People lost their life savings. Life savings, their own homes, for a guy named Keating out of Arizona.
"You want to get tough in politics, I can get tough in politics as anyone else," Daley said. "When you start throwing mud, mud is going to be thrown at you and it’s going to be sticky.”

ADLAI STEVENSON, speech, Sep. 10, 1952"
Thanks for digging that up :-)
God, this is so hot.
Barack Obama: Speak softly and carry a big stick.
And then there's McCain's other association too...that of the Watergate criminal G. Gordon Liddy who has reportedly held a fundraiser for McCain. McCain has called him an "old friend" , said he had "principles that kept our nation great" and "vouched for Liddy's character".

Can you imagine the total outrage if one of the little Obama girls did this at an event? The apple doesn't fall far from the tree does it?
This is incredible. AND they are making it fit into the broader narrative about the economy. I am seriously in awe.
Goooooooooo Barack !
I gather this is Chicago style at its best. I love it!
Why is it that everything McCrazyCAin does BACKFIRES on him big time?
McCrazyCain wants to attack, let him go right ahead and get a piece of his old medicine.
But seriously. She did go away. Fast.

Obama: ‘We Bring a Gun’
By The New York Times
Senator Barack Obama was fund-raising Friday night in Philadelphia. But he was talking about “the Chicago way.”
Channeling the mob drama, “The Untouchables,” Mr. Obama said in reference to the general election rumble with the Republicans: “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.”

Analysis: Palin's words may backfire on McCain

"The problem is the messenger. If you want to start throwing fire bombs, you don't send out the fluffy bunny to do it. I think people don't take Sarah Palin seriously."
She ain't no fluffy bunny by a longshot! She has a beautiful smile while she's knifing you in the back...like most beauty queens.
The opposition can bark and snarl all they wish regarding Bill Ayers, but we have to do is run the tape. It speaks for itself. Bill Ayers never participated or enabled the looting of savings accounts or pension funds held by middle class folks. Bill Ayers didn't walk away with billions of dollars leaving the taxpayer holding the bag. Bill Ayers did not lobby Congress to change or ignore banking regulations to help his political mentors scam American citizens. Bill Ayers rehabilitated his past by working to change the future. Obama's partnership, friendship, association, collaboration, etc. or whatever you want to call it, never required the American taxpayer to come to their rescue to the tune of billions.
John McCain continues to hobnob and cater to the Phil Gramm's and Charles Keatings of the world. He is the same old same old ever and ever. And we pay the price coming and going.
Let's get the media talking about how until a couple of years ago her husband was a member of a party whose founder was killed in a shootout while trying to illegally purchase high explosives, and that she herself gave speeches at their convention...
Another thing I think would be great to do is take the Freeway Blogger idea and plaster posters all over this country signs that read "Who is Vicki Iseman?" and "Where is Vicki Iseman?". If there are hundreds popping up in cities all over the country, it may not get national media's attention, but local media will start asking questions. People might even get curious about who this woman is and google her. She prostituted herself for her clients, whom McCain rewarded with his influence. What if Russia sends a gorgeous spy to seduce our commandor in Chief? Will his other brain betray our beloved country? You betcha!
I've never heard Mrs. Obama smear a candidate. So when Sen. McCain's wife is out here doing it, man, that's low. We're in a new era now. With the internet and other media devices that give us more access to information, these "scare" tactics and "oh we can just put it out there! Those ignorant blue-collar rednecks don't know any better" days are gone! Of course it's so much easier to put out unverified info to try to scare people you're clearly not in touch with than to get some experts together and hammer out comprehensive and effective policies that the American people can get behind you on. I'm still trying to figure out what the heck Sen. McCain was thinking turning down Romney or the former Mayor of New York. I'm not Republican, but when I hear them talk, especially Romney at the second debate, I thought " Well I would at least paid attention and listened to what they had to say." I'm a women and a independent. Sorry, but she just doesn't do it for me.
