That's good, only asking for the part she doesn't owe herself.:lol

Also Obama is going to be doing the first fundraiser for the DNC in Hollywood, that should help their coffers. Tickets are $30k, only 2300 to Obama, the rest to the DNC.

Holy cow at the images from India.

Also, the Daily Show/Colbert Report are blocked here. : (

Edit: By doing a valid criticism of Obama, TDS proves its worth once again.

I can, but the Daily Show and the Colbert Report sites are borked. They load, but they load completely messed up and the videos never play. I live in China for the moment.

The campaign finance stuff fell a little flat but mocking that over-sized seal was gold. "It roughly translates to 'yes we can'. In latin how do you say: 'but shouldn't....":lol

Post your view point as evidence. Obama did it when he took a picture of the person taking his picture ;)

A fellow "Organizing Fellow." In this photo, it looks like she is distracting Obama from paying attention to the guy he's shaking hands with:

Nader says he's on to Obama strategy:

"He wants to show that he is not a threatening . . . another politically threatening African-American politician. He wants to appeal to white guilt. You appeal to white guilt not by coming on as black is beautiful, black is powerful. Basically he's coming on as someone who is not going to threaten the white power structure, whether it's corporate or whether it's simply oligarchic. And they love it. Whites just eat it up."

New AP/Yahoo poll says McCain leads Obama in dealing with Iraq, wtf
And even people who hate the war still trust McCain more.

Just heard this on the radio.

Hardly surprising considering his background and Obama's "lack of experience" stigma.

This is why a terrorist attack would help McCain. If the issue this November becomes national security McCain will win.

But we know that the terrrrists all want obama to win, so obviously they'll hold off until after the election. Today's modern terrrrist is a politically adept, shrewd fellow.

Like obama!

I liked Chucks on Morning Joe. "All Obama needs is a C+ performance, it's unfair to McCain, but all America's really looking for is a C+ from him, and he could run away with this."

Nader is a fucking asshole for saying this. Its more racist and insulting to me than both Imus' gafs combined!

So basically because Obama is black is has to be naturally the type of guy that does the black power thing with his fist in the air.

Basically he should be like Al Sharpton. And naturally if he doesn't do that then his whole personality must be fake.

And on top of that white people are only voting for him because they are guilty of slavery.

Bullshit Nader and its time you take your old never winning ass back home and hang up the boxing gloves.
