"We're gonna change the tone in Warshington"
Bush's and Obama's message is the same.

It isn't new or different and neither is Obama (pro death penalty, pro Patriot Act, "I don't know how I would have voted on the IWR.")

Ho hum.

4. You got that right.
I have to remember not to hold the excesses of her supporters, against her. I trust that her supporters here have nothing better to do than post such drivel all day. ;)

7. seems the repubs are seriously pushing this obama scandal now
Seems like this is just not going to go away. Seems he's another Chicago lawyer.

http://www.pr-inside.com/andy-martin-says-chicago-criminal-trial-r381284.htm

http://www.pr-inside.com/andy-martin-news-conference-will-explain-r381538.htm

Chicago crime-fighting expert and law professor Andy Martin predicts that indicted swindler Tony Rezko will offer to testify against Senator Barack Obama. Obama faces a potential 'perfect storm- as Rezko's criminal trial is set to begin during the presidential primary season. Martin scoffs at claims Rezko did not help Obama acquire his home.

Obama's excuse that he was not aware of Rezko's shady politics is an insult to the intelligence. Obama has also said he had no idea that Rezko had slum properties right inside Obama's state senate district, a few blocks away. (what?)

'And Obama's law firm was doing Rezko's legal work. (what?)

9. Obama - the great deceiver? Change ? legal bribes - ruh roh
Edited on Fri Jan-11-08 05:49 PM by kelligesq
Regarding Tom Donahue's Chamber of Commerce (infamous for his recent anti-populist threat -see Los Angeles Times, "Populists Beware" aimed at John Edwards and the American electorate) which is responsible for the outsourcing and loss of millions of American jobs and the insourcing of white collar and IT workers to take more American jobs.

While Obama is one of their main men for receiving contributions(why dont we just plain out call it what it is: legal bribes) as well as other lobbies not working in the best interest of the American people, such as the National Association of Manufacturers (the factory you worked at is closed down?)
and The Business Roundtable.

Harpers Magazine
http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:QSIUlIICOBQJ:www.h...

"Individual contributors to Obama include some of the best-connected lobbyists in town, including Jeffrey Peck (whose clients include MasterCard, the Business Roundtable, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce) and Rich Tarplin (Chevron, the American Petroleum Institute, and the National Association of Manufacturers). "

-snip-

"consider the following: in one of his earliest votes as a senator, Obama helped pass a class-action “reform” bill that was a long-standing and cherished goal of business groups. (The bill was the focus of a significant lobbying effort by financial firms, who constitute Obama's second-biggest single bloc of donors.) "


Thanks Obama for helping to close out my ability as an American consumer to fight back in a Court of Law against big corporations who refuse to consider my safety and welfare.

Tell me,Obama, exactly who should we believe is a populist and is going to bring change to stop the corruption of the American government?
