56.) "I Disagree With My Church All The Time" - LIE, 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 of 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.


57.) "I Have Clean Connections Despite Rezko" - LIE, you are not only connected to Exelon and Rezko, you are also connected to an Iraqi Billionaire of ill repute, Nadhmi Auchi, who ripped off people in the Food For Oil, Iraqi deal.

58.) "I never heard sermons like Rev. Wright’s, that have been in videos all day, You Tube" - LIE! 3 days later during your Mea Culpa 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!" - LIE. Your own Campaign Foreign Policy Advisor is the CEO of the company that looked into your records.

61.) "My wife didn’t mean America is ignorant, she was just using a phrase" - LIE. Again, Michelle’s comments perfectly sync with Wright’s, Meeks’, and Farrakhans, both in language, anger, and direction.



62.) "I am very Anti-Terror" - LIE. [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" - LIE. [03/30/2008] You and your campaign buddies 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" - LIE - [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": - LIE - [03/31/2008] Obama was the first to play the race card. According to Phialdelphia 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. Read more here



66) "I did not take money from oil companies": - LIE - [03/31/2008]
THE FACTS: True enough, Obama does not take money from oil companies. No candidate does. It is illegal, since 1907, 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 says he doesn’t take money from PACs. He also says he 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.

67) “I don’t think my church is actually particularly controversial,” Obama said at a community meeting in Nelsonville, Ohio, in March 2008. - LIE - But he told a different story in his Philadelphia race speech. “Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes,” he said.


68) "Look at my education record in Illinois" - LIE - 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/2188010?wpisrc=newsletterSource: slate.com




69) “I stopped smoking. I stopped smoking. I haven’t had a cigarette since I quit" - LIE - 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) - LIE -According to Boston Globe, HeraldTribune and other sites, Obama airs “ads” on Cable stations in Florida. Even with the Florida cable ads, Obama still lost. From heraldtribune.com Obama’s Florida ads bust pledge

Is Barack Obama a Muslim wolf in Christian wool?

By Reuven Koret March 27, 2008


The glib handling of criticism of his relationship with the
anti-American (”God Damn America!”) and anti-Israel (”a dirty
word for Negroes”) Reverend James Wright may have bought him a
little time. But the legacy of dissimulation about his long-concealed
identity is about to come crashing down around the ears of Barack
Hussein Obama, courtesy of the assembled testimony of his family,
friends, classmates and teachers.

The accumulated research indicates that Obama was in his childhood a
devout Muslim, the son of a devout Muslim, the step-son of a devout
Muslim and the grandson and namesake (”Hussein”) of a devout
Muslim. He was registered in school as a Muslim and demonstrated his
ability to chant praise to Allah in impressive Arab-accented tones
even as an adult. Just as he has not disavowed his “uncle”
Jeremiah, neither has he disavowed his Muslim faith that he was born
into, raised with, celebrated and never abandoned. He just covered it
over with a thin veneer of his own self-styled “Christianity.”

Although as an adult he would register as a Christian, and
occasionally attend a Christian Church (but apparently not often
enough to listen to the preaching of his pastor, or so he would
claim) this was a necessary step for a man who from earliest boyhood
has nurtured the precocious ambition to be President of the United
States.

NO OBAMA NO OBAMA

There is no way to deny, Clinton supporters have FALSELY ambush this "Straw Poll."

What crack's me up, are the distorted numbers reflected. If the numbers were flip flopped with Obama in the lead at such a ridiculous position, I'd have the same thing to say.

Hillary and her supporters will LIE and DISTORT anything they can to MAKE IT APPEAR that she is so POPULAR. She's NOT.

UNBELIEVABLE.

Obama can't win the general. Democrats don't waste your vote!

Vote Hillary 08.

UNANSWERED
QUESTIONS
FOR HILLARY CLINTON
“Thanks in no small part to Judicial Watch, Hillary Clinton may be the most investigated person in the history of the Republic.” -Margaret Carlson of TIME Magazine


Now that Hillary Clinton is an official candidate for President of the United States, the American people will take a long, hard look at her record. And any discussion of Hillary Clinton’s record begins and ends with her crimes and ethical transgressions.
Judicial Watch, of course, has been pursuing both Hillary and Bill Clinton since its inception, launching numerous investigations and lawsuits. However, despite clear evidence of Clinton corruption, so many questions remain unanswered.
If Judicial Watch were given an opportunity to interview Hillary Clinton, here are the ten (plus) questions we would ask first:
Who in the Clinton administration devised the plan to sell taxpayer-financed trade missions in exchange for campaign contributions to the Clinton-Gore 1996 re-election campaign?
Sworn testimony from Nolanda Hill, partner and confidante of the late Clinton Commerce Secretary Ron Brown, points to you as mastermind of the scheme.
Why did you give “factually false” testimony under oath in the investigation of the White House Travel Office firings, as former Independent Counsel Robert Ray stated in his final report.
Ray said his office found “overwhelming evidence” you played a role in the dismissals of the seven longtime employees in the White House travel office, which you denied under oath.
Who hired former bar bouncer Craig Livingstone and ordered him to illegally obtain for the Clinton administration the FBI files of former staffers in the administrations of Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush?
Sworn testimony and at least one FBI docment shows you hired Livingstone.
Why did you fail to report more than $2 million in contributions to your Senate 2000 campaign?
Testimony from the criminal investigation and trial of your National Finance Director, David Rosen, shows you knew the total costs of the fundraiser, yet failed to accurately report them.
Your brothers Anthony and Hugh Rodham allegedly brokered cash deals to obtain presidential pardons from your husband on behalf of convicted criminals. Were you aware they were each paid large sums to obtain these pardons?
Did you play any role in any of the 140 presidential pardons provided by Bill Clinton in the waning days of his administration, bypassing the normal pardon review process? How about the pardons of the Puerto Rican terrorists in the run-up to your first Senate campaign? Did you have any input on those?
Did you or your lawyers hire private detectives to investigate and intimidate critics of the Clinton administration?
What did you instruct James Carville and George Stephanopoulos to say in order to discredit and defame Gennifer Flowers, a woman with whom your husband had an affair?
Evidence suggests they smeared her at your behest. Did you play any role in smearing and defaming other women sexually and otherwise abused by your husband, including, but not limited to: Kathleen Willey, Paula Jones, Dolly Kyle Browning, and Juanita Broaddrick ?
Records from the Chicago Mercantile Exchange reveal that you turned a $1,000 investment in cattle futures in 1978 into to more than $100,000 in ten months… a return of 10,000%. How did you earn such an astronomical, and unbelievable, return on this investment?
How much money does Bill Clinton earn from his relationship with Ron Burkle, a contributor to your Senate campaigns, and Burkle’s company, Yucaipa?
Are these funds currently available in bank accounts to which you have access? Will you use these funds for your campaign? How about Bill’s speaking fees, some paid for by foreign interests and governments – what are the financial benefits to you?
How do you explain the mysterious disappearance of your Whitewater billing records from the office of Vince Foster, the former Rose Law Firm partner and Clinton White House counsel who allegedly committed suicide in 1993?
How do you explain the mysterious reappearance of those same records in the White House with your fingerprints on them?
Stopping at ten questions is hard to do. We could ask about her illegal White House fundraising coffees, doing business with the State of Arkansas while her husband was governor, Web Hubbell, John Huang, Chinese generals, the Lippo Group, and paid sleepovers in the Lincoln Bedroom.
These questions are important and relevant as the American people weigh Hillary’s candidacy. We deserve some honest answers.

Joe:

As Hillary said to OBAMA-"If you can't take the heat
get out of the Kitchen"

Obama has close to 5 MIllion in televsion ads and mailers-He is trying to buy Pennsylvanian voters.

Guess what it will not work! He will lose big!

Most Pennsylvanians can't be bought.

Vote Hillary 08!

With all the outstanding women that the dems have in Congress, whose reputations are not in the least so questionable, sustainable by facts, as clinton's, "she" is the best that the dems can come up with???

Bottom line for me - ANYONE but clinton!!!!

A Viet Nam Vet - in country 7/66 - 11/71

Barbara Olson's posthumous Clinton book “The Final Days” is most relevant now. She is the author who lost her life on Sept. 11, 2001. Mrs. Olson's publisher, Regnery, considered scrapping her book, which roundly slammed Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Clinton for the circumstances (the last-minute pardons and newly issued regulations and appointments, etc.) in which they vacated the White House, but it was agreed that publication should go forward. "The Final Days" has been in bookstores now for well over 6 years. Have you read it?
Don’t you want to know more about the toxic cloud amid which the Clintons packed up and left the White House? Does it matter, for instance, that our former chief magistrate further soiled his, ah, legacy by pardoning or commuting the sentences of people notable chiefly for sleazy personal histories and evidently impeccable access to the White House? You would logically suppose so, as did Barbara Olson.Doesn’t their final days in the White House tell us who they are? Read the book please.
The Clintons remain part of that world, (unfortunately) and there are vital lessons to be grasped in her book.
Actually, to say there are lessons is to put it mildly. The Clinton administration is a seminar -- no, a semester course -- no, a whole university department -- in the matter of moral leadership or lack thereof in their case.
"The Final Days" does get you to thinking: What if those hadn't been their "final days"? Suppose it had fallen to the Clinton administration to organize American response to the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks? What would have been the level of trust the White House might have commanded in the eyes of the nation and the world, in the wake of -- leave aside pardons -- "that woman Ms. Lewinsky," the meaning of "is," disbarment, hair's-breadth escapes, and a variety of other trust-busting considerations?
It's very uncommon to risk life and limb for those you think are mainly looking out for No. 1, or who you fear will cut some lousy deal to get themselves out of a bad or inconvenient spot. Trust -- a leader who can't inspire it in moments of crisis is no leader at all; more a danger to himself and others than anything else.Who can you trust?
Aren’t you glad anyway we don't have to find out? -- as glad, maybe, as Barbara Olson would have been? The aroma of that gladness you can all but smell in "The Final Days" -- Mrs. Olson's potently concocted Last Will and Testament. Rest in peace Barbara Olson and may we all rest in peace that we will never find out about Hillary!

Joe...don't be so naive. Hillary overtook the lead nationally yesterday! And recently she has remained ahead on this poll. Now I don't know who I am voting for yet. But it will not be that shady individual who shows up from nowhere.He has to many negative associates who are white haters. And I for one will not have a President who thinks like them, because he may act like them once in office! Don't be a fool vote with your smarts!

Hillary in the Senate
As a watchdog, it is CAGW's job to expose federal waste, fraud, and abuse. They have found it necessary to warn the public about potential financial fiascoes of Ms. Clinton. Many senators and congressmen ran, and won by making broad campaign promises that would increase the federal budget by billions. With new spending and an expanded bureaucracy comes more waste. Therefore, CAGW is launching a preemptive strike against any attempt to "universalize" private services.Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) came into the U.S. Senate promising to fight for universal health care, universal pre-school, and mandatory (i.e., universal) trigger locks on handguns. She could lead the crusade to bigger government all by herself.But Senator Clinton will find out that it is costly to "universalize" private services. Prior to her election, the National Taxpayers' Union (NTU) totaled all the promises she made during her "listening tour." NTU estimated that Mrs. Clinton's promised it would cost an additional $241 billion annually. This is a conservative estimate because her ideas are broad and undefinable. They are also full of warm, fuzzy sentiments and faulty math, but without price tags or accountability. Mrs. Clinton's faulty math is evidenced by her promise to support expanding "second chance" maternity homes by doubling current investments in these initiatives. When she made these proposals, there was no such programs and therefore no investment to double. Mrs. Clinton really had no idea how much money she was talking about. Fulfilling her promise would have required an entirely new program, new staff, new regulations and new spending. She does not stop there. Mrs. Clinton believed that the world's problems could be solved by combining a miscellaneous adjective with the word "corps," calling it a "brilliant new federal program," and handing over to that program billions of dollars. Mrs. Clinton proposed two such programs. She called for a National Teacher Corps and a National Principal Corps, which together would have cost $2.2 billion annually. While John F. Kennedy's volunteer program, the Peace Corps, has been a success, most other corps are a bevy of waste. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Corps commands a fleet of aircraft that is obsolete; their duties could easily be carried out privately. Americorps, Ex-President Clinton's "volunteer" corps, was to reward college students with an average of $27,000 in grants each for work in urban areas. Last time we checked, this was called paid labor, not volunteerism.
Senator Clinton has not been a stranger to the pork barrel either.Her language of proposals has "earmark" written all over them. An early campaign press release stated that Mrs. Clinton would do everything in her power to bring federal money to New York. New York does not seem to be having too much trouble barreling up to the trough. Taxpayers should not be surprised. Mrs. Clinton embraces "universal" policies that require her to be loose with taxpayers' wallets. You should, however, be forwarned.
A government-watchdog group says the Democrat-led Congress last year broke a promise to slash pork spending and doled out $17.2 billion for pet projects, including $296 million in earmarks by Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton — the top spender of the three presidential contenders.
"There was hope that the number and cost of earmarks would be cut in half. By any measure, that has not occurred," said Tom Schatz, president of Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW), which yesterday released its annual "Pig Book" tally of pork spending.
Congress stuffed 11,610 projects into fiscal 2008 spending bills, the second-highest total ever and more than triple the number of projects in fiscal 2007. The $17.2 billion spent reflected a 30 percent increase over the previous year's $13.2 billion expenditure, according to the "Pig Book."
The projects include $1.9 million for the Charles B. Rangel Center for Public Service, named for Ways and Means Committee Chairman Charles B. Rangel, New York Democrat, who requested the earmark; $460,752 for hops research related to beer making; $188,000 for the Lobster Institute in Maine; and $148,950 for the Montana Sheep Institute.
The top three "porkers" identified in the "Pig Book" all were Republican members of the Senate Appropriations Committee: ranking member Thad Cochran of Mississippi with $892 million, Ted Stevens of Alaska with $469 million and Richard C. Shelby of Alabama with $465 million.
CAGW ranked Mrs. Clinton of New York the 13th top pork spender in the Senate, far outpacing Democratic rival Sen. Barack Obama who ranked 28th and sent his home state of Illinois about $97 million in pork.
Mrs. Clinton's 281 projects included $303,150 for a drug-rehabilitation program at the Gay Men's Health Crisis Center in New York; $535,800 for police surveillance cameras in Buffalo, N.Y.; $585,000 for exhibits at the New York Hall of Science in Queens, N.Y.; and $492,000 for an urban research center and greenhouse in Brooklyn, N.Y.
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee, Sen. John McCain of Arizona, as usual secured no pork projects.

Please watch this video before you vote. Obama's words may be smooth,
but this video is Obama's 13th ward in Chicago. Do you want America
to look like
this. Shame on Obama and the super delegates voting for him. This is
what Obama will do to our beloved country. Send Obama back to his
13th ward.

Vote American, Vote Hillary

If the voters on here have been reading the comments about Obama and his supporters, any sane person can come to the summary that Obama is a fraud/ liar/ racist/ radical friendships/no experience/no PL experience

If you can comprehend what I just posted and you still support Barack Hussein Obama, you have been drinking his kool-aid too long. When Is Barack Obama going to step down and out of the race?

Support Hillary Rodham Clinton

PS; A double standard, Delegates and Super Delegates should support the popular vote of their state. Why are super delegates supporting Barack Obama like Kerry, Kennedy, Hillary Clinton won those states.

Bill’s Lincoln Bedroom Guests Keep Giving To Hillary
Indicating what lies ahead if another Clinton occupies the White House, many of Hillary’s big donors participated in the 1990s fundraising scandal in which her husband sold Lincoln Bedroom sleepovers and other White House perks for millions of dollars.
The unprecedented White House-for-cash stays were part of Bill Clinton’s brilliant strategy to raise $100 million for his reelection. The deep-pocketed guests included representatives of large corporations, foreign-government lobbyists, wealthy prominent attorneys investigated for wrongdoing and a socialite who orchestrated Bill’s last-minute pardon of fugitive financier Marc Rich.
In all, nearly 1,000 White House “guests” gave more than $10 million to Bill Clinton and many of them have, not only donated heavily to Hillary’s presidential campaign, they have also been crowned “Hillraisers” for bundling at least $100,000 each from friends and relatives. Some have promised to raise $1 million or more for the New York senator’s financially struggling campaign.
These donors’ ties to the fundraising scandal are not relevant to Hillary, who insisted back in 1996 that the “Lincoln Bedroom was never sold” and refers to them simply as loyal “friends and supporters.”
A Justice Department investigation revealed otherwise, however. The agency’s campaign finance task force issued a scathing 94-page report saying that Bill Clinton’s desperate need to raise enormous sums of money led to a situation where abuse was rampant and indeed the norm.
A separate congressional inquiry revealed that the big Clinton donors were not only given overnight accommodations in the White House, they were also ushered into the Oval office for coffees, lunches and other meetings with the president and First Lady and taken for rides on Air Force One.
Read the late great Barbara Olson's The Final Days of the Clinton Whitehouse and find out about the lack of character these two charlatans have! They raped the dignity of the office!
Go to Judicial Watch and read more about Hillary's corruption and unethical practices. Do you really want to return to the Dark Ages of the Clinton Whitehouse? For God’s sake Vote Obama!

Obama–>Rezko–>Nadhmi Auchi–>Saddam Hussein & Muammar al-Gaddafi–>(Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, and Raila Odinga–>Sheik Abdullahi Abdi)–>Raila Odinga–>Obama–>Bill Ayers & Bernadine Dorhn–>Obama–>Rashid Khalidi–>Obama–>Rezko–>Jabir Herbert Muhammad–>Farrakhan–>Obama

Follow the money … see the ties

With Americans like Obama, who needs Al Qaeda?

Clinton campaigner's are at it again. I wish Clinton's "followers" would point out the LIES that she and BILL have told over the past 25 years.

Bill: Did he serve in Vietnam? How come? What was "he" doing" Oh he didn't "inhale," that's right. Didn't have sex with "that woman" either. LIE LIE LIE and more lies...

Hillary: Has she served in the U.S. Military? Nope. How come? Did she work her way through college? Nope. Has she ever worried personally about Health Insurance for her or her family? Nope. Always the best for Hillary. NAFTA anyone? Landing in a war zone "Under Fire." Hmmm. Particularly love the way she cries out for those who died because they had no medical insurance, and were turned away....NOT.

I URGE SUPPORTERS OF ALL CANDIDATES TO BRING FORTH AND EXPOSE THE LIES, OF ALL CANDIDATES, INSTEAD OF "WHITE WASHING" THE "LIES" OF THE LYING A DOUBLE SS CANDIDATE THEY HAVE CHOSEN TO SUPPORT.

HILLARY AND BILL ARE PROVEN LIARS. THEY ARE CORRUPT AS H E DOUBLE HOCKEY STICK.

OBAMA IS A RACIST, WHITE HATER. HE ALSO IS A LIAR.

MCCAIN IS ARIZONA MAFIA, WHICH TAKES ALOT TO DO BECAUSE ARIZONA IS RUN BY MORMON MAFIA. MCCAIN IS A HERO TO OUR COUNTRY, AS ARE ALL SERVICEMEN. BUT, HE IS ALREADY CATERING TO THE MORMONS. HE AND MITT HAVE COME UP WITH A NEW $7,OOO.OO DEDUCTION FOR CHILD TAX CREDIT. THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT WILL WORK WELL FOR, ARE THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO HAVE LARGE FAMILIES. THEY WILL END UP PAYING LITERALLY NO FEDERAL TAXES. SO, WITH THE ROMNEY/MCCAIN NEW CHILD TAX CREDIT, UTAH AND IT'S MORMONS WILL OFFICIALLY BE NON TAXPAYERS. WHAT'S NEW WITH THAT THOUGH?

IF WE EXPOSED ALL THESE CANDIDATES, MAYBE WE'D ACTUALLY END UP WITH ONE WHO IS "WORTHY" TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

NONE OF THE ABOVE ARE. GET SERIOUS!
