"A friend was in Bahrain last week. His translator
said "Is it true that Obama is Jewish?" This seems to be the latest conspiracy theory
in the Middle East. It's based on the name Barack being like Ehud Barak. So his first
name makes people think he's Jewish and his middle name makes people think he's a Muslim.
Lucky for him his pastor is there to speak up for him as a Christian." -- Andrew

Excerpt: Obama's big national lead over Hillary has all
but evaporated and both trail John McCain,
according a Reuters/WhoreZogby poll released
on Wednesday.
The poll showed Obama had 47 percent to 44 percent
over Clinton, down sharply from
a 14 point edge he held over her in February
when he was riding the tide of 10 straight victories.
Obama has been buffeted by attacks from Clinton
over his fitness to serve as commander-in-chief
and by a tempest over racially charged sermons
given by his Chicago preacher.
The poll showed McCain is benefiting from the
lengthy campaign battle between Obama and Clinton,
who are now battling to win Pennsylvania on April
22.
I can't believe McCain could win anything - (but who thought Kerry could
lose?)
.
Grandpa is running as Bush's third term, and between the war and the
economy,
who's going to want more of the same instead of a big change at the
top?
"Can Obama's speech blot out the YouTube videos
of Jeremiah Wright saying "God damn America"? It probably can't as a
blunt political matter. Obama didn't answer Wright's rebuke with an equally hot
riposte. The speech failed to address head-on Wright's damning of America and his
remarks about 9/11 or AIDS." -- John Dickerson at Slate

I just sent a e-mail to Keith Olberman asking
him when he was going to give

Excerpt: Hillary has moved into a significant lead over
Obama among Democratic voters, according to Gallup.
The poll gave Clinton a 49 percent to 42 percent
edge over Obama.
IF
Obama is going down, some people might even be glad she stayed in this
race.
The media and the Obama people think he hit a big home run with that
last speech,
but some people are saying he dodged the issue and "stuck
with the crazy hater."

"I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus
but I would also say that there's nobody on my staff who would still be working for
me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope

Maybe this is why we have super-delegates.
What if Obama leads in the delegate count, but is unelectable because
of this anti-whites scandal?
Excerpt: I had a disturbing conversation recently
with a colleague from Texas who is supporting Clinton.
I outlined my concerns and his response was,
"They will show up and vote for Hillary.
Where else do they have to go?" They
have another place to go. They can stay home.
Should large numbers of our core voters stay home
this fall, we could see a third Bush term
with the election of McCain. Equally disturbing
is the potential effect on down-ballot races for
everything from the Senate to the House to races
for control of state legislative bodies, which
are critical to Democrats as we enter the next
stage of redistricting in 2011.
Going into the convention without fairly conducted
re-votes in Michigan and Florida is a
potential train wreck of historic proportions.
To ignore this possibility is irresponsible.
Will anti-Hillary Democrats stay home and give McCain the authority
to expand the war?
Will they allow McCain to stck the Whore Court with anti-science handjobs?
Sure they will.
People don't call us the suicidal party for no reason.
"Obama gave a major speech on race in America.
I'm sorry, but I believe we solved racism in America when Rosa Parks drove that
bus to Congress. Okay, have we forgotten so soon? Come on, it's been hundreds of years.
At this point, who even remembers who owned who?" -- Stephen Colbert
Bart, I love it -- everything is Hillary's fault
in Kos's (and most of the other left wing bloggers') world.
She invented the electoral college. She
invented the calculus that says all the states Obama is winning
aren't going to matter in the general election.
She engineered it so the states he's winning would vote
Republican for the last 40 years, thus garnering
the nickname "red states", so that she could marginalize
Obama's wins there in 2008. She got the
party bosses in Michigan and Florida to try and engineer a
power-grab to try and throw Iowa and New Hampshire
off their coveted thrones as primary kingmakers;
convinced the DNC to punish them; got them to
vote for her and..and...Oh Christ, I can't even figure out
where that one is going. She had her good
friends in the media, who flower her with their love and affection
every day in print and on t.v., to focus every
election night coverage for the last 40 years on the states she
is winning, as the states that matter, just so
she could bolster her run this year.
Yeah. Its all her, Kos.
What's that stuff you drink again? I have
a headache.

Excerpt: Republicans win elections in years when national
security is a top concern. In 2004, it didn't matter that
Kerry volunteered for, fought in, and returned
with medals from Vietnam. What mattered was that he
turned the other cheek to the Swift Boat ads.
If he wasn't willing to stand up for himself, voters reasoned,
how would he protect them? Bush may have been
a coward during Vietnam, but his "dead or alive"
bravado, not to mention starting a couple of
wars from scratch, conveyed a comforting, if imbecilic bellicosity.
The monosyllabic tough-guy act soothed a savage,
terrorized electorate.
Barack Obama, on the other hand, has already given
away a store he doesn't yet own.
He's the new century's version of Dukakis.
First rule of presidential politics: fight for
those near and dear to you. Michael Dukakis lost points when
he was asked what he'd do if his wife got raped.
(Correct answer: "I would kill the rapist.") If a man won't
stand up for his own wife--or his own pastor--how
can we trust him to fight the terrorists?

Subject: Is
our party disintegrating?
Bart,
I keep reading and hearing that the Democratic
Party is "disintegrating," "self-destructing,"
and other such terms. I keep looking for
signs of this. Can you direct me to some?
I see a party having a typical political battle,
like most parties used to have, that will help direct
the course of the party over the next 3-4 presidential
cycles. Interestingly, there's not much
difference between the candidates' positions,
so this is a battle over personality: does the
Democratic Party want a charismatic leader or
an experienced leader? a popular person who
can (theoretically) get things done or a policy
wonk who (theoretically) knows what things need
to get done? That's what we're deciding
here.
We could have had this battle in 1992, but Bill
Clinton's charisma and knowledge of proper policy
overcame all the other candidates, overcoming
his modest resume (OK, 12 years as a comparatively
powerful Governor of a moderately small state,
two years as Chair of the National Governor's
Association, and several years running the Democratic
Leadership Council are pretty good, but not
as good as, say, twelve years as a Senator).
Now we have Bill Clinton's charisma in Barack Obama
and much more than his original policy knowledge
in Hillary Clinton. This "battle" should help determine
whether the Democratic Party chooses to be led
by emotion (Obama) or reason (Clinton).
But, in the long run, both are needed to get
the job done.

Bush's war will cost three trillion dollars.

Would Obama be insulted if someone mentioned him in the same

Excerpt: The spectacular and bizarre release of secret
FBI wiretap data to the New York Whore Times
exposing the tryst of New York State governor
Eliot Spitzer, the now-infamous client "No 9",
with an upmarket call-girl had relatively little
to do with Bush's pursuit of high moral standards
for public servants. Spitzer was likely the target
of a White House and Wall Street dirty tricks
operation to silence one of the most dangerous
and vocal critics of their handling of the current
financial market crisis.
Spitzer had begun making high-profile attacks
on the complicity of Bush in covertly arranging
bailouts of its Wall Street friends at the expense
of ordinary homeowners and citizens,
all paid for by taxpayer funds.
With these Bush bastards, you have to be conspiracy theorist.
After stealing trillions in the fake "housing crash," the crooked bastards
get more billions
of OUR money and those who might question this latest Bush theft must
be silenced.
I had never heard you before and it's strange
at first not knowing what a person sounds like, but I loved it.
I was an old fan of Bob Perry, exchanged many
an email with him, but his hatred of Hillary can only be
explained, as far as I know, by his anger at
Bill Clinton for letting HW off the hook for Iran-Contra.
That scandal and his excellent reporting of it
cost him his career.
I don't think Hillary's is about to let any of
them off the hook, and I tried to explain that to him.
Thanks for your work

For some reason, Parry seems to think (I'm guessing)
that Obama will go Jihad on the Bush bastards,
but how can he after he's promised to "reach
across the aisle" and stop using 'gotcha' politics?
Obama has tied his own hands, but Parry doesn't
mind. All he knows is that the Clintons are bad.
Parry hates the Clintons and backs Obama who will
probably do exactly what Bill did:
He's going to let the Bush bastards off the hook
to promote some "get along" strategy that can't work.
I tried to get Parry to explain himself - perhaps
he gets too much mail to answer it all.
I don't believe the intra-party squabbles
will destroy the Dems chance to win in November.
If anything it toughens both candidates and is
nothing compared to the swiftboating either will face.
Obama's recent speech shows he can handle a crisis
in a thoughtful manner.
I was a Clinton supporter for years. I now support
Obama as the best hope for the future of America.
I will vote for and support either against McCain.
KenK
Ken, thanks for that.
Why can't more Democrats be reasonable like you

There's no room in your day for that tiny Tequila Treehouse
where Hillary is prefered, but Obama will do just fine?
Bart, the numbers just don't add up for Hillary.
The superdelegates will have to blatantly take
it away from Obama and give it to Hillary.
I thought the Wright story might allow them to
do so.
After yesterday's speech, that doesn't seem likely
to me.
You gotta admit it was a great speech!
Stu the lawyer
Stu, what if the voters get skittish about Obama?
He's suddenly falling like a rock in natyional opinion polls.
We do want to win in November, right?
If the super-delegates see Obama as a train wreck in progress,
should they stay with him or try to win with no-wreck Hillary?
If
Obama is brought down over this, at least it will have been over
his own doing and not some unfair trap Hillary played on the new guy.
...of all the glowing testimonials the Republicans
are giving Obama?
I ask because if/when he gets the nomination,
those same "enthusiastic supporters"
are going to turn on him like f-ing sharks -
so is anybody keeping track?
That goes without saying.
Any old timers remember the Bartcop Joe DiMaggio
Award?
Steve Croft asked the same question of Hillary
5 f-ing times. Finally after the last time
Clinton interrupted Croft and said, " Look, I
have been the target of so many ridiculous rumors.
I have a great deal of sympathy for anybody who
gets, you know, smeared with the kind
of rumors that go on all the time."
Croft was setting Clinton up.
By asking the same question over and over and
interrupting Clinton in mid answer he baited a trap.
The trap is to get multiple answers so that the
media can pick the weakest one and run with it.
So basically Randi and Budowsky are playing Clinton
rules.
This version is a classic "weak man" attack,
pick the weakest statement
a person makes and pretend that it's their best
argument.
http://thenonsequitur.com/?p=552
Maybe Randi and Budowski don't know what their
doing and are speaking in good faith.
Maybe they're being played by Steve Croft in
just the way Hillary Clinton was.
It sure would be nice to ask them.
Buzzcook
Snarling and good faith rarely go hand-in-hand.
Randi and Budowsky have that impossible-to-explain, irrational Hillary
hatred.
They hate her hair, they hate her laugh, they hate her walk, etc.
Excerpt: '"Kristen" went "Wild" - with other women!
Five years ago, Eliot Spitzer's infamous call
girl celebrated her 18th birthday
by starring in a racy lesbian spring break flick,
the "Girls Gone Wild" filmmaker said Tuesday.
Ashley Alexandra Dupré, who turned a $4,000-plus
trick for Spitzer under the name "Kristen,"
is featured on seven reels of a sexually explicit
video called "Spring Break 2003."
"We have some really great footage of Ashley,"
"Girls Gone Wild" CEO Joe Francis said.
"There's a very good shower scene that alone
is worth the money."
This Joe Francis dude, fresh out of prison to
face another trial, offered Kristen $1M to
do a video for him. Then the NY Daily Whore
told Francis that he already had 6 hours
of Kristen frolicking with men and women
in his Girls Gone Wild video.
Joe Francis is a million dollars richer because
the NY Daily Whore is addicted to porn.

Excerpt: It just isn't possible for this country to have

After spending months haranguing Hillary to release
her schedule as First Lady -- based on
high-minded demands that open government is important
-- this is what ABC News
"investigative reporter" Brian Ross did with
the documents today:
AP now has an even longer and more detailed article
on the same subject, promoted by
wehateclintons.com's front page, which
begins: "Hillary was home in the White House
on at least seven days when her husband had sexual
encounters there with Monica,
according to her schedule." This is the line
they insert to justify their low-life vouyerism...
