"There is a strutting self-righteousness about
McCain that goes hand in hand with a nitroglycerin temper. He flatters himself
that his colleagues in the Senate dislike him because he stands up for principle
whereas they sell their souls for pork. Not exactly. He is disliked because on many,
many occasions, he has been disrespectful, belligerent and vulgar to those
who differ with him."
-- Mona Charen, Nazi sow, Link
Excerpt: Only days before the make-or-break "Super Tuesday"
primaries, Hillary dipped into
her personal finances to lend her campaign $5
million, a move she kept secret until the
day after she had battled Barack Obama to a standstill
in the coast-to-coast voting.
If she had disclosed the loan before Super Tuesday,
it might not only have generated
troubling questions about the financial health
of her campaign; it might have focused
unwanted attention on the sources of the Clintons'
money.
But why would she disclose the loan?
Why should she?
Since it's legal, why would it generate "troubling
questions?"
The proximity between the Clintons' new-found
wealth and her presidential run raised
eyebrows over whether the $5 million loan - and
any future financial help she might give
her campaign - could constitute backdoor financing
from benefactors beyond what they
could legally donate.
Why would it raise eyebrows?
In 2005, Kerry mortaged his home to get enough
money to crush Howard Dean.
Was consortiumnews.com troubled by that?
Were eyebrows raised then?
No, selective outrage seems to be the new norm
at consortiumnews.com
Kerry got a pass from consortiumnews.com because
his last name wasn't Clinton
AND because consortiumnews.com can't raise
their profile doing hatchet jobs on Kerry.
"Hillary has spent decades parlaying her husband's
political clout into both money and power. How did that
benefit anybody but the Clintons?" -- Uncle Tom
Sewell, pleasing his white masters, Link
Hey Uncle Tom - she's a twice-elected United States senator.
Just because your wife needs to get your permission to
use the toilet
doesn't mean every woman in America has to ask.
Obama will find that his "be nice, please?" approach
is not very effective,
either in Washington, orin foreign policy.
His record shows no risking his neck for his beliefs,
which means he has none.
Claiming to be the anti-war candidate, while
as a Senator doing nothing to stop
the war, should be enough to confirm his hypocrisy.
It's not like he's managing a Dairy Queen, he's
a fucking Senator-- he could
do more to stop it than speaking empty platitudes
on the campaign trail.

Excerpt: The nation's first elected black governor said
Saturday he is not ready to excuse
comments Bill Clinton made about Barack Obama.
(Who asked him to?)
An eternity ago, Clinton called Obama's
opposition to the Iraq war "a fairy tale."
Clinton suggested Obama had toned down his early
anti-war fervor during his 2004 Senate campaign.
"Barack Obama is not a fairy tale.
He is real," former Virginia Gov. Douglas Wilder told reporters,
Notice how wilder had to change what Clinton said.
He HAD to change it, because what Clinton said
wasn't "racial enough" to outrage Wilder.
And why is Wilder drudging up something that
has already been buried?
Is Obama that desperate?
"A time comes and a time goes. The president
has had his time," said Wilder,
revealing his true motivation for fabricating
a quote, then pretending to be outraged at it.
Is dividing the Democrats by race the ONLY way
Obama can win?
Remember: We had this race won until Obama
decided to save us.

Excerpt: Hillary retains her lead among suddenly critical
Democratic Party insiders.
Of the 796 Democrats who are superdelegates, Clinton
had 243 and Obama had 156.
That edge was responsible for Clinton's overall
advantage in the pursuit of delegates to
secure the party's nomination for president.
According to the whore AP, Clinton has
1,136 delegates and Obama has 1,108.
2,025 delegates is the winning numberto.
This is why Donna Brazile is thretening to quit the Democratic party,
because Hillary is playing by the rules and she's ahead.
Brazile is spitting and stamping her feet, demanding that the rules
be changed
so her favorite, the new guy, has a better chance to upset his party
elders.
Excerpt: A distasteful comment about Chelsea Clinton by
an MSGOP whore could imperil
Hillary's participation in future presidential
debates on the network, a Clinton spokesman said.
Howard Wolfson on Friday excoriated MSGOP's David
Shuster for suggesting the Clinton
campaign had "pimped out" 27-year old Chelsea
by having her place phone calls to celebrities
and Democratic Party "superdelegates" on her
mother's behalf.
Wolfson called Shuster's comment "beneath contempt"
and disgusting.
"I, at this point, can't envision a scenario
where we would continue to engage in debates on that network," he added.
MSNBC said Shuster, who apologized on the air
for his comment, has been temporarily suspended
from appearing on all NBC news broadcasts except
to offer his apology.
"NBC News takes these matters seriously, but we
make extra millions by slurring the Clintons.
Shuster got a bonus for insulting Chelsea, who
the vulgar Pigboy called "The White House dog."
MSGOP's Jeremy Gaines said the network
hoped the debate would take place as planned.
The Obama people are cultists. I went to
oprah.com
to read what was being said there
and the religious crap mixed in with the obscene
obama-worship is something to behold.
The Hillary people haven't been silent
on her blog, where 7.2 million was raised in two days.
The reason you are hearing from the Obamatons
and not the Clinton supporters is that
the Obamatons are like born agains, hysterical,
loud, evangelical and self-righteous.
Clinton supporters are logical, intellectual,
results oriented and operate from a mind place.

They may explain why they go postal if you criticize their man.
Maybe they're trying to protect him from what the Clintons go thru
every
day.
Excerpt: It's perfectly obvious that the right wing is
licking their chops in anticipation
at facing Obama. Read this from Peggy Noonan's
piece:
"He will be hard to get at, hard to address.
There are many reasons, but a primary one is that the fact of his race will freeze them.
No one, no candidate, no party, no heavy-breathing consultant, will want to cross any line--lines
that have never been drawn, that are sure to be shifting and not always visible--in approaching
the first major-party African-American nominee for president of the United States.
He is the brilliant young black man as American dream. No consultant, no matter how opportunistic
and hungry, will think it easy - or professionally desirable - to take him down
in a low manner."
Now, obviously it would be absurd to apply this
criteria to Karl Rove.
If you know how to read Noonan, she is calling
in the hit. That is going to be the campaign. It's childlike to believe that Karl Rove hasn't
done his homework already..
They are drooling in anticipation.
Why do they "like" Obama so much?
Because they are terrified of Hillary Clinton,
that's why.
Yes, that's obvious, but Obama backers don't want to hear that.
Suddenly, they have great faith in the honesty and integrity of the
whore media.
The newest voters in our party believe the GOP slime machine won't
attack him.
Next time you see a zebra with spots, call me, would you?

"I like Barack Obama...because of his policy
to give everyone a helicopter. OK, I really have no idea what any
of his positions are, but I like him, anyway." -- Dave Barry, speaking for every
Obama fan who has no idea who/what he is, Link
Yo Bro Bart, I haven't heard you slime Obama at
all.
I think what pisses people off is how much you
support Hillary.
I think you're right.
I wish I could support every candidate every
reader likes.
If I was new to your site I would think it was
part of the Clinton campaign myself!!
That's odd - do you think the hundreds
of webmasters who
support the fresh-faced newcomer are with his
campaign?
But what I think don't matter at all, my pony
has pulled out of the race.
I will sit back and wait to vote for whatever
Democrat gets the nod.
If the Obama folks felt the same, we could probably
win.
You may as well start preparing yourself for the
Obama tidal wave.
The vibe I am getting is that there is no stopping
him now.
Hillary's campaign stalled when her husband started
running his yap.
I disagree.
Bush's whore media has distorted every word out
of his mouth.
They do that because they want the fresh-faced
newcomer to fight the GOP slime machine.
She DID NOT need Mr Nafta's help at all.
She was rolling and way ahead until he started
popping off.
He got too involved and it became "all about
him" again.
A fatal mistake, and I see no way to fix it.
Keep the faith.

I just want the damn war over.
I've said 100 times, I will vigorously support Obama if he wins.
I just wish he could do it without turning the Clinton Family into
the Grand Wizards of the KKK. They don't deserve that.
Assuming McCain gets the nomination,
it would be the first time that a Republican presidential nomination went
to a candidate who was not merely opposed by a majority of the party but was actively
despised by about half its rank-and-file voters..." -- Tony Blankley, Link
McCain is hated by the Right for not being right-wing-enough,
just as Hillary is hated by the Left for not being a left-wing-enough.
Have both sides forgotten the middle is where the votes are?
Some Obama fans say they like him because he's willing to reach
across the aisle.
But to do that, he'll have to reach over Hillary - what sense
does that make?
My main problem with Clinton isn't her vote before
the war, but her continued support for it.
And on that count, Obama doesn't look any better.
He wasn't there to vote for it, but he hasn't
voted against it since he has been there.
But one thing does bother me, the Obama crowd
doesn't seem to be real democratic
... and especially not Democratic. It's all "my
way or the highway".
It looks like if Obama wins the nomination, Clinton's
supporters will support him;
but if it goes the other way, Obama's supporters
would prefer to see the Democrats lose.
John
John, at least they've been honest about that.
Michelle Obama said quite clearly that she and
her husband will
"have to think about" supporting Hillary against
the Republicans.
They are refusing to take the pledge that would help THEM if they win.
Obama is afraid to take on Clinton in as many
debates as offered.
Hillary isn't showing any hesitation accepting
the challenge.
With the race for president tied Democrats are
looking for a way to choose their
best candidate. Debates are the best way to do
this because it's a one-on-one battle
of ideas. It's a fair fight for the hearts and
minds of the voters. If Barak runs away from
a fair fight then he's admitting through his
conduct that Hillary is better qualified to be president.
If Obama is afraid to go up against Hillary in
a debate, then how can America believe
that he's ready to up against terrorists like
Osama bin Laden. Are we going to risk
America's future on a man who is afraid to debate
Hillary? I think not!

I have read your sight for many years and enjoyed
it despite your recent pro-Hillary rants.
That's mighty white of you.
You have said in the past that you would support
the Democratic nominee, and Obama has
now won 20 states to Clinton's ten. He
is dominating Clinton in nearly every way and has all
the momentum. My question to you is will
you now support the all but certain demo nominee
or do you want a pony?
-Blake
Blake, after all these "many years" reading
bartcop.com you still believe every word you hear from Bush's
whore media?
Hillary has more delegates than Obama and she's
expected to win OH, PA and TX,
not to mention the Michigan and Florida delegates
which Obamaniax want excluded.
I understand you want your guy to win, but the math puts her ahead.
I'm sorry.

Excerpt: Huckabee said he was not expecting to receive
the endorsement from Focus on
the Handjob leader James Dobson, even after speaking
with him on Thursday.
"Frankly, the endorsement caught me off guard,"
Huckabee told reporters.
I covered Barack Obama's campaign appearance in
Alexandria, VA this past Sunday.
After seeing his performance in the debates,
I would have liked to have heard his policies.
Meeting him beforehand when he did a press conference
and roundtable discussion,
I certainly was not electrified. He talked about
fixing schools but didn't say how he would do it.
Then, at the actual event, the crowd was absolutely
nuts. I'll give him that. It was like being
at the superbowl. He motivates his people. But,
in his entire speech, he promised everybody
basically, utopia. Free health care, rebuit schools,
tax cut for the middle and lower incomes,
re-pave the roads, re-build the bridges, talk
with our enemies, be like JFK.
At no point did he say how we would pay for it
or what any of his policies would be,
other than a pony in every barn.
I was actually on the fence before yesterday.
Now I'm leaning Clinton.
Tim
Just a personal note to one of my all time favorite
sites...
You have an odd way of introducing yourself...
So sad to see the demise of your site.
I've been sticking with you but now the deceptions
are too much for me.
For instance, Friday you started with:
Quote of
the Day
"Obambi will fold at the first punch from the
right." -- Dragonlady Dowd,
But Dowd didn't say that - she said that is the
argument
Hillary is using against Obama. She put
it in quotes.
Shame on you.
The site's humor is gone and now this deception
shit.
At least Rawstory is still reliable if not funny.
(withheld)
You are confused.
Hillary never called him "Obambi."
Maureen Dowd wrote that.
She wants Obama to win, but it's her nature to
call people names,
so she PRETENDED that Hillary called him that
so she can say,
"Isn't it awful the way mean Hillary treats
Saint Obama?"
You can blame me for reporting what Dowd said,
I can't stop you.
You can take every word Dowd ever wrote and claim
it's my fault, I can't stop you.
But the truth could be you can't stand to see
your candidate attacked
so you decided to swing wildly at whoever might
answer your e-mail.
Excerpt: In this booking photo released by the Pulaski
County Sheriff's office, David Huckabee, 26,
a son of Republican presidential hopeful
Mike Huckabee, is shown in Little Rock, Ark..
David Huckabee was arrested at Little Rock's
airport last year after a federal X-ray technician
detected a loaded Glock pistol
in his
carry-on luggage.
Huckabee had a .40-caliber Glock in his black
carry-on bag. Eight live rounds
were in the gun, none in the chamber and a nine-round
clip was also in the bag.
District Judge Lee Munson gave Huckabee a one-year
suspended jail sentence and ordered
him into 10 days of community service which Huckabee
can avoid by paying $100.
Damn, good thing he wasn't a Democrat with a joint.
That would have been a serious crime.
As is, he's the son of a powerful Republican so probation and $100 fine
is punishment enough for boarding a plane with a hidden, loaded Glock?
"The media was all over George Bush and hated
Gore. We heard over and over about how stiff and unlikeable Gore was, how
he was a liar, etc... while we were told that Bush was the one everyone wanted to have
a beer with. The press corp all got cute nicknames from Bush and loved yukking
it up with him. And when he screwed the nation over, they all bent over without
a whimper.
MSNBC should be registered as an Obama 527.
Mika Brezinski spends every morning talking about how great Obama is with no mention
that her father works on Obama's campaign. Chris Matthews is a one man hate machine when
it comes to Hillary. I like Obama, but the press has given him a free ride. If he wins
the nomination and goes up against St. McCain, it will all come to an end." -- Teresa Kopec, Link
I think that's true and I think everyone reading
that knows it's true,
yet they WANT to believe it's not true.
The press is waiting until Obama wins to release
their tsunami of negativism on him.
The press works for the super-rich Republicans.
How can you deny what you know is true?
Obama acquired millions of dollars to criminal
Resko to restore homes for the poor in Chicago.
Somehow the poor got nothing and Obama ended
up with a mansion which he could not afford
on a community organizer's salary or city council
pay. Resko's slum houses are still there.
Also, Obama attended very expensive universities.
Who paid for his education?
He claims his mother was poor and on food stamps.
You know, $ things just don't add up.
Either he's lying about being poor or he must
have a godfather somewhere in the world.
Maybe a reader can send a photo of Resko's Chicago
slums to be posted on your site.
Excerpt: Why does Ariana Huffington hate the Clintons
so much? It's almost borderline obsessive behavior.
Huffington and by extension the Huffington Post,
her Internet venture, have spent the entire primary
season trashing the Clinton campaign and writing
assassination pieces about everyone and anyone
tied to the campaign.
Case in point is Ariana's new hatched job on Maggie
Williams. Because Ariana is a hateful revengeful
bitch she unearthed a hatchet job piece she wrote
about Williams ten years ago. Ten fucking years.
The following is the beginning to the ten year
old article,
"One of the most distressing features of our
current political system and the Clinton White House in particular, is the way they turn otherwise
honest, caring, idealistic individuals into spinning, rationalizing, truth-twisting defendants desperately
trying to stay out of jail."
Typical Arianna stupidity, implying lots of Clinton
staffers went to jail - when NONE did.
She can't make a case on the facts - so she makes
shit up.
What would you think about Arianna is she ran
100 columns trashing Obama?
Would you think she was just playing politics?
Or would she be the most hated, racial bitch
in journalism?
Since she's trashing the Clintons, it's considered acceptable, even
cool.
Obama kicked the crud out of Hillary at our precinct
caucus today; 196 to 59.
I did manage to get selected as a Hillary delagate
to our county convention though.
The one thing that strikes me as odd about Obama
and caucuses is how mobilized
he gets his base to attend. Obama has won
every state that has held a caucus
except Nevada and yet Hillary has won 11 primary
elections to Obama's 8.
When people
vote in private they select Hillary. When surrounded
by their peers, they vote for Obama.
I will be interested to see the vote totals in
Washington's primary on the 19th
to see what the trend is. Here in Washington
we are the only state to have both
a primary and a caucus (even though the Dems
stripped the primary of its delegates;
the Republicans split selection between the two).
Keep on keepin' on,
Houston in Seattle
That has to mean something - the way people vote.
Is it like they say, a religious thing?
Religion is really about acting religious for your friends, family
and neighbors.
Behind closed doors, nobody believes that stuff, do they?
Would anybody go to church if it wasn't about "being seen" at church?
What's the difference between going to church and praying at home?
Excerpt: 4. Rezko, especially Obama's below market
personal real estate deals with him
Obama paid Rezko $104,500 for a strip of his land.
The transaction occurred when
Tony Rezko was under investigation by U.S. Attorney
Patrick Fitzgerald.
In the Sun-Times interview, Obama acknowledged
approaching Rezko about the properties
being up for sale and that Rezko developed an
immediate interest. Obama did not explain why
he reached out to Rezko given the developer's
growing problems. Last month, Rezko was indicted.
6. His "fairy tale" opposition to the war
given he voted to fund it
for two years and hardly mentioned it once he
got the US Senate seat
"I have been very clear even as a candidate that,
once we were in, that we were
going to have some responsibility to make (Bush's
War) work as best we could..."
Excerpt: "Maybe you support your favorite candidate because
you are very young.
I admire your enthusiasm. I do. Come here while
I give you an affectionate
pat on the head and congratulate you on your
puppy-like if unreflective
capering and frolicking. It is to your credit
that you are too wide-eyed, naive,
and childish to comprehend how badly you have
been deceived by the empty
promises of your favorite candidate. Who, I must
soberly inform you, sucks.
Now scamper off and do as you are told by your
betters.
The local station put Ed Schultz on in place of
Randi's show so
I haven't heard her in some time. She used
to be very very pro Bill Clinton
and praise his presidency and even had him on
her show once.
You're right.
When and why did she turn on Hillary? I
assumed she would like her too.
I'm really bummed to hear she's supposedly been
slagging her as I used to be a very big Randi fan.
Greg in Vacaville, CA
Greg, I'm still a big fan of hers - I'm hoping she'll go back to the
Randi we know.
Hopefully things will settle down in the next 30 days.
"I'm never disingenuous. We are less of an
underdog than we were two weeks ago. Now we're slight
underdogs." -- Obama, asked if it
isn't a little disingenuous to still be clinging to the 'underdog' title,
Link
"Has the media been managed or has it fallen
in love? What an arrogant man Obama is. "I'm never disingenuous." Indeed. Fact is
that what should be a hardened press corp fell for a pitch that's basically full of
Oprah Winfrey style paltitudes. You'd better start doing your jobs and vet this guy."
-- Mike M, Link
I imagine they've already vetted Obama,
but they're sitting on his dirt
until Hillary admits defeat - then the
"We
love Obama" press will crush him.
It seems to me the very fact the Obama-ites get
so hysterical
to the point of confusing simple points of argument
with "sliming"
( and canceling subscriptions, etc.) indicates
there is a cult factor here.
I am impressed and excited by his speeches too,
but I can tell that
"I have a dream" type speeches don't necessarily
mean that he is presidential.
I hope that by November folks have taken a nap,
calmed down, and can once again think clearly.
Rick
I, too, am confused about those who think I'm "going off" on Obama.
Have they never seen me "go off" on somebody before?
