Re: Palin Accuses Obama of 'Palling Around With Terrorists'
Give me a break. Everyone knows John McCain cheated on his first wife with Cindy when he was a lot older than Obama was when he knew this guy. How they can be such hypocrits amazes me.

You can't even question a potential president about questionable ties to questionable people anymore.

He's been asked. Over and over and over and over, and over ,and over. I have zero doubt that people like you a toni and have been digging four the last 6 months for ANYTHING to tie Obama to anyone of these guys.ZERO proof, but,but,but we just want to ask him about his past relationships.

Re: Palin Accuses Obama of 'Palling Around With Terrorists'
Can ANYONE explain why McCain spent his 70th birthday on a boat rented out to a guy who was just sent to prison for fraud?
A few months after McCain's yacht party, Follieri strengthened his ties to McCain's orbit by retaining Rick Davis's well-connected Washington lobbying firm, Davis Manafort, and offering Davis both an investment deal and help in securing the Catholic vote for McCain's presidential bid.
Mic check... anyone anyone...

Re: Palin Accuses Obama of 'Palling Around With Terrorists'
Let's see... Obama spends time on a educational board in Chicago with a man who committed domestic terrorism acts when Obama was 8.
McCain spends his 70th birthday two years ago with a man who not only retained the lobbying firm of McCain's top aide and current co-manager of his campaign but was recently convicted and sentenced to prison for fraud.
Hmmm....
ANYONE?

Re: Palin Accuses Obama of 'Palling Around With Terrorists'
See, here's the thing. Obama interacts with a man who committed crimes almost 40 years ago. The right wants to vilify him because, he talks and socializes with a man who committed crimes almost 40 YEARS AGO, so long ago most who are reading this weren't even born. So long ago, TV was still in standard black and white. So long ago, fuck, a long time ago.
McCain socialites with a man who at the time was committing crimes. He celebrates his birthday with the con man. Connects him with Davis and his lobbyist.
Yet, why is Obama constantly on the hot seat about "relationships?"

You refused to answer my question and then started babbling about President Bush's (not running for office in this election) alleged problems ...why should I participate anymore?
So, get me back in the game...why, exactly, do you believe Barak Obama failed to mention his 6 years at the CAC -- six years of experience he now claims is the qualifier for his executive experience -- in either of his two autobiographies.

Maybe he should answer when you've answered my question (which you dodged). You've read both his books?

Nope. But, if what I said were not true, someone would have disputed or refuted it. They haven't.
There, do you release him to answer mine?

As Obama is going to be our next president, I find this quote comforting.
Thanks, Chump.
Obama's rhetoric has been decidedly un-radical. His plan for healthcare, also, is reasonable, and not an over-reaching govt. power grab (I think he may get some backlash when the left figures this out).
Palin's quote, however "accurate" it might be, is not intelligent at this point in the race. It indicates desperation. It's not going to work, and is going to turn undecideds off. As much as the race for the WH, IMO, is over, McCain could still do a lot of damage to congressional races by running a ridiculous campaign to close this out.

While you're trying to remember where you heard about his books, why don't you go and read up on the U.S. Council for World Freedom. McCain sat on the board. It has been described as "extremist", "racist", and "anti-semitic". See what Joe Coors did.

Your previous post presumes otherwise, I think.

Ayers was a Weatherman when Obama was less than 10 years old. Ayers went on to a productive, lawful life.
Keating was a criminal when McKeating was a Senator and pressuring regulators to lay off Keating, while frequently a guest of Keating in Bahamas. McKeating received official sanction from Congress. Keating went on to jail.
