    Note to Team Obama:

    We're pretty sure it's 8 houses.

    And one $1 million parking lot.

    McPOW trots out Rezko and Ayers again?
    That bullshit didn't work 6 months ago, but whatever.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    ... and Obama just trots out Abramoff and Keating 5.

    mccain MUST realize that there's more dirt available on him than Obama... that's why he's attacking constantly.

    Obama really needs to bring up all the garbage... first, trot out mccain's voting record over the years... let's see who looks like they support troops or the Average American, huh?

    .
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    I dunno... that statement from Obama sounds 'elitest' to me.

  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    let this be a lesson to all the kids out there reading...


    you no longer have to apologize for anything, just claim you were a POW and your mom hates America.

    got it kids? go try it at home.
  • tlsintx · 1 year ago
    McPOW hides behind his wife's skirts!
    They are actually saying that the dem ads attacked Cindy because SHE owns all the houses!!
    OMG. He'd better go back to the I'm a POW defense...

  • houstonray · 1 year ago
    The McCain ad in response to Obama's is out there now. It's full of what we suspected, "million dollar mansion" "fraud" "special favors" and ends with the "convicted felon" comment about Rezko. Oh wait, no, it ends with "I'm John McCain and I approved this message".

    Time to hit 'em again Barack!!!!
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    Did the ad look and sound like "The Untouchables" to you?

    That's what it reminded me of--I figured they were trying to convey "chicago, mob ties, etc."

    Seemed ham-handed, tho.
  • unclemike · 1 year ago
    More like this, please!
  • Pancho · 1 year ago
    THE O campaign needs to do this again tomorrow not relent don't capitualte on the Rezko stuff just keep hammering!

    OT:

    Singer has a good post on the Keating 5.

    http://www.mydd.com/story/2008/8/21/185928/267

    We'll all have to get up to speed on that.
  • Coming Undone · 1 year ago
    McCain does put Country First, however that country is Vietnam.
  • Chris From Maine · 1 year ago
    McCain was a POW. Therefore we cant question him.

    Shame on you John for attacking a hero like John McCain. Dont you know he is entitled to be President, and Obama should just drop out, because McCain puts America first and Obama is a radial Muslim terrorist traitor?
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    Glad Obama got his vacation in.

    He's going to have to go at it like this every day until the election now.
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    He's got to stop bobbing and weaving and land some body blows before he can go to the head with hooks and roundhouses.
  • mmedefarge · 1 year ago
    Whatever material McCain has is all courtesy of the Clinton campaign...she paved the way there.

    Tweety just interviewed some disgusting leather-skinned, gravel-voiced "PUMA" Hilb(ig)ot, Diane something. I am more convinced than ever that they are going to disrupt the convention, Where are the Chicago cops when you need them?
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    I think you are so right, my dear...
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    are the Chicago cops expected in Denver?

    nice.

  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    Obama needs to get way ahead. he's not a "closer". His VP candidate is much more important than McWeasel's. Unless, of course, they both pick the same person....

    Hey Everyone!!! Let's start a campaign to help John McCain count his houses!!! Who's with me?

    OBAMA!!!! Hammer this home, buddy. I want to hear it in your speeches. "I'm starting a campaign to help McCain count his houses." Everyone together now...
  • HereinDC · 1 year ago
    How about something like Whack-A-Mole....

    Houses popping up...and you try and guess if it's a condo or a house?

    Houses popping up and you guess the price?

    Houses popping up and you guess the one which the taxes weren't paid for 4 years?


    Houses popping up which is on the Coronado?

    speaking of possible running mates (oh that's right, we weren't), bobby "the exorcist" jindal has decided that gays and lesbians are a threat to the children and economy of louisiana.

    http://www.2theadvocate.com/news/politics/27212...

    with their special rights revoked, homosexuals are now fair targets for bashing and harassing in the bayou state. since freedmen are also a threat to the (plantation) economy, look for jindal to revoke the special rights of blacks not to be slaves.
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    I can see why they would emotionally perceive them to be a threat to the children. But, why to the economy?
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    Sean Hannity is starting a telethon for Obama's half brother who lives on a dollar a month in a hut in Africa. Sean has donated a thousand American to start it off. Anyone here going to help alleviate the suffering of this young man?
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    interesting... fair & balanced is the motto, right?

    so why is sean hannity offering a telethon for someone he claims is a half-brother? out of the goodness of his heart?

    egad.
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    Hannity is a troublemaker personified!.....
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    His dad was married four times.

    Obama's not responsible for his half brothers any more than your half brothers are responsible for you.
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    Oh, I forgot; "the great Mother State" will supply all our needs. His bro?? ... piffle; God will provide. Let him rot in his hut....
  • bumpkis · 1 year ago
    The NEOCONS have had 8 years to access the classifed portions of McCain's personnel file at the Pentagon. You have to wonder what that classified report has to say about McCain's "wet start" onboard the aircraft carrier that killed all those sailors. Helluva a thing to leak out if he doesn't dance to their tunes.
  • HereinDC · 1 year ago
    Wanna bet the value of the 8 homes haven't gone down in the last year?

    Keith Olbermann is doing a great job on the Mccain house thing.

    Even the staff are laughing at some of his comments.
  • moreleesafer · 1 year ago
    ooooooh that is gonna leave a mark.
  • jimfromthefoothills · 1 year ago
    John, I credit you and Kos and netroots with waking the campaign a bit. Let's hope they keep on offense.
  • moreleesafer · 1 year ago
    This has a been a spiritually refreshing day. I have to tell ya, last night I was not happy. I wanted to see a fight. I wanted to see Dems fight back and I sure got a show. today. We need to do this every single day.

    "AmericaBlog News... A great nation deserves the truth"

    But what about a sh*tty fascist police state of a nation like America? Do they also deserve the truth?
