1. What a load of..
crap. So Obama is supposed to jump out and make statements before he has had a chance to determine exactly what if any contacts his staff has had with Blago. Sure and then if he says something that turns out to be partially or completely wrong then they go into Clinton/Gore mode and start calling him a liar. If the media really wants to know the truth they have to do three things, one, give Obama and his staff a chance to make sure they have all pertinent information and report it; two, realize that even after a few days of investigation within their group they still may miss something that will come up later; three, unless the MSM has valid information and is willing to come forward with it (I am getting real tired of 'they', 'some people' and anonymous sources. Sure anonymous sources that you pulled out of your ass!!!) they should accept Obama's conclusions. This country is really in bad shape right now and for the media, especially the right-wing media, to keep playing 'scandal of the week' to distract the soon to be President from his job is unproductive and destructive. At this point if the information is so important that it should trump fixing the economy, ending two wars and fixing all the last minute rules changes Bushco rammed through then bring out your sources and let them tell what they know. The media keeps saying Obama should be forthcoming about what he knows, then let the medias sources be forthcoming and admit who they are and what they really know beyond innuendo.

4. I for one will not be giving this youtube "thing" a hit.....
as the more hits it received, the better the corporate media has to show it on primetime under the excuse that people are talking about this. Sometimes we are better off not helping them spread their shit, which I imagine that is all this is.

5. Let the witch hunt begin.....
Folks, this is just the beginning. They had his "birth certificate" as a "non-issue" issue, and now they can put that flimsy hollow piece aside and begin to make accusations and innuendo regarding this matter.

They will get something of more substance...maybe Reverend Wright or Bill Ayers again...but they will continue to hound and witch hunt Obama to the end of his days...the very same as they did with the Clinton's.

It has only begun. We need to stand up and LOUDLY say this is all a witch hunt and bull shit. Did you see the Democratic Party pulling this gutter slide with the jerk off they have had in office for the past eight years? Certainly there were accusations, but they aren't made up innuendo. Torture, inaction to a national catastrophe, invading a sovereign nation under false pretenses...these are not made up "innuendo".

We need to let the media know we aren't going to stand for this cat call bull shit for the next 4-8 years. This country has bigger issues at hand. The un-doing of the nightmare these soulless, neocon pigs have stained our nation with.

6. After the major fail of the Clinton Impeachment...
...you'd think Repugs would take another route. But for people with no ideas, I guess the same old thing is all they can do. Many people had had enough with the bogus impeachment of Clinton. That "Whitewater" thing was blown up until it popped. It did harm in that it took up a lot of valuable time and effort....and money. Do the Repugs really think they can get 70 million for another wild goose chase in this day and age?

7. sore losers
I am not going to watch it because I don't want to give it any hits...but every time I see this crap I'm following it up with SORE LOSERS and WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICANS?

America voted for Obama in such numbers, it was a MANDATE from the people. In a Democracy, our elected officials are supposed to respect that.

FUCK the antiquated, out dated, useless, stand for nothing, lying RNC. Where are Palin's clothes????

9. Haven't they noticed that the election's over? Why are they running . . .
A negative campaign ad at this point? Isn't it a trifle . . . er, *traitorous* to try to delegitimize the president-elect before he can even take office?
