K - you guys can circle jerk over Palin if you'd like. I'm not interested in exchanging stupid one liners over teleprompters because you can't admit that her knowledge on foriegn affairs was seriously and obviously lacking.
Funny. Joe Biden, Hillary, and Bill Clinton all said that Barak wasn't qualified during the primaries. But unlike Sarah Palin, he actually is running for President.

Come on Manny, you're better than this. Everything Obama does is scripted. He couldn't tie his ing shoes without his handlers telling him how. And you're upset about some of Palin's answers seeming scripted?
How much foreign affairs experience does Obama have . Less that his VP running mate Biden. Sara has less than John but she is not running for president like Obama is. So Sara has the same experence as Obama.
This is a non-starter for you guys and has been covered numerous times before. The fact that you're bringing it up again implies what a cone of silence you keep yourselves under.
Obama is on the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee. As a member of that committee, he ranks as one of the country's experts on foreign policy. Doesn't mean he's always right, doesn't mean you have to agree with him on all things, but it definitely means he's more than capable in the field.
And by the way, VP Biden is the chair of the committee.
It doesn't mean . He doesn't have the experience, and he doesn't rank as an expert. The Dems put him there to pad his resume for a presidential run.
Putin aint running for office. We can't do anything to the Russians and they can't do anything to us. All we can do about Georgia is whine about it and lack the self-awareness to condemn their aggression while ignoring our own (Iraq).
How long has Obama been on that committee? What has he accomplished on that committee? It seems he has spent most of his time in congress running for president. What bill has his name on them from that committee.
He cosponsored a bill with Republican Lugar on nuclear non-proliferation.
You can go ahead and lick my asshole clean. Thanks.
Where does anyone start as you are a total asshole.
Dude, you just got creamed. I'd walk away from the computer for a while if I were you.
Thats a bull bill as it hasnt' stopped a thing. Just window dressing. Iran going for the Nuke to give to Hamas. Is it stopping that? Did it stop the IED's. Lick my you asshole.
read the bill and tell me what it stopped.

.....carving up the cons ution...militarism....empire and corporate control of every aspect of our government...upward redistribution of wealth with NO oversite...kill the middle class (you guys better figure out who your customers are)..
...the urge to fight iran...unswerving support for israel (their crooks are just like ours)...and where returning to a cold war with russia is viewed as sensible policy..
how much has america learned in 8 years?
Half of America hasn't learned a goddamned thing. Barack Obama called Sarah Palin a pig and wants to teach our kids how to give good head.
McCain Palin 08 Everybody!
Barack Obama is an angry, scary Negro that wants to teach our kindergardeners the best method for putting on a rubber!
I'd be totally embarrassed to have to parrot those distortions on Spurstalk. At least the McCain Press s get paid to disseminate bull .
Anything involving a back door delivery is ok in my book.
LMAO, you called yourself a got that's likes to get his ass licked, and he got creamed? Idiot.
So Omaba is qualified because he wants the job?
OK.. I get it. If you know a burger flipper that wants to be a mechanic, but has no experience, you will let him work on your car. Right? That's fine, but this is my county too. I want someone with experience.
The best people in political history are those who did not aspire to be who they became. I don't think any of the founding father wanted to become who they did. Their moral integrity drove them to do what they did. They answered the call of duty.
Is that the commitee that he has, but hasn't chaired a single meeting?
So from what I gather in this thread from Republicans is that being on the Senate Foreign Affairs committee in no way qualifies you to deal with Foreign Affairs. How insightful.
Can you at least try and debate? C'mon, just try and put some facts together.......![]()
Much the same way that the Dems on this board believe that being a governor and having final say on all decisions in a state doesn't qualify a person to be VP.
Obama is the chairman of the United States Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on European Affairs. It has not meet since he became chairman:
Looks like Obama can't do the Joe without Joe holding his hand!The subcommittee is chaired by Democrat Barack Obama of Illinois, and the Ranking Minority member is Republican Jim DeMint of South Carolina. The subcommittee has not met since the appointment of Senator Obama as chairman, because Senator Joe Biden, chairman of the full Foreign Relations committee, has been holding those hearings himself.
MEMBERSHIP AND JURISDICTION
OF SUBCOMMITTEES
OF THE
COMMITTEE ON
FOREIGN RELATIONS
110th Congress 1st Session
UNITED STATES SENATE
JANUARY 2007:
Biden Camp Pressed Hard For a Slot on the Ticket:SUBCOMMITTEE ON EUROPEAN AFFAIRS
Barack Obama, Chairman
Jim DeMint, Ranking Member
Jurisdiction:
The subcommittee deals with all matters concerning U.S. relations with the countries on the continent of Europe (except the states of Central Asia that are within the jurisdiction of the Subcommittee on Near Eastern and South Asian Affairs), and with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the European Union and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. Matters relating to Greenland and the northern polar region are also the responsibility of this subcommittee.
This subcommittee's responsibilities include all matters within the geographic region relating to: (1) terrorism and non-proliferation; (2) crime and illicit narcotics; (3) U.S. foreign assistance programs; and (4) the promotion of U.S. trade and exports.
No. He just doesn't trust Obama to do it right. He doesn't take control of all the other sub committees!Sen. Biden proved to be a vocal campaigner for Sen. Obama once he became the party's presumptive nominee in June. When Republicans criticized Sen. Obama last month for not holding any hearings on Afghanistan in his Foreign Relations subcommittee on the region, Sen. Biden stepped in to defend his colleague, saying that as chairman of the full committee, he had made a policy of holding those hearings himself.

When did you guys (Manny and Johnny) watch it?
