An Obama Issue

Werbung:
This is encouraging.

Barack bounce evaporating now leads McCain by just 3%.

A bristling Barack went ballistic Tuesday after a McCain aide called him out on his key weakness of inexperience and tied it to another vulnerability of being soft on terror and completely green about military and foreign policy matters. Obama was clearly upset at being accused of having a September 10 mentality.

Obama succumbed to a McCain challenge to visit Iraq and Afghanistan and meet with military to find out first hand. but has dodged McCain’s town hall meeting dare.

According to a Rasmussen Poll released at 12Noon Wednesday EST the Barack bounce is evaporating and he leads McCain by only 3%. Both Obama and McCain are viewed favorably by 55% of voters nationwide and unfavorably by 43%. Obama is more conflicted. Opinions are held more strongly about Obama–31% have a Very Favorable opinion of the Democratic hopeful while 26% hold a Very Unfavorable opinion. For McCain, those numbers are 17% Very Favorable and 19% Very Unfavorable. Seventy-seven percent of voters see significant differences between McCain and Obama.
 
Obama exterminates minority progressive competitors

"The day after New Year's 1996, operatives for Barack Obama filed into a barren hearing room of the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners.

There they began the tedious process of challenging hundreds of signatures on the nominating petitions of state Sen. Alice Palmer, the longtime progressive activist from the city's South Side. And they kept challenging petitions until every one of Obama's four Democratic primary rivals was forced off the ballot.

Fresh from his work as a civil rights lawyer and head of a voter registration project that expanded access to the ballot box, Obama launched his first campaign for the Illinois Senate saying he wanted to empower disenfranchised citizens.

But in that initial bid for political office, Obama quickly mastered the bare-knuckle arts of Chicago electoral politics. His overwhelming legal onslaught signaled his impatience to gain office, even if that meant elbowing aside an elder stateswoman like Palmer."

A close examination of Obama's first campaign clouds the image he has cultivated throughout his political career: The man now running for president on a message of giving a voice to the voiceless first entered public office not by leveling the playing field, but by clearing it.

One of the candidates he eliminated, long-shot contender Gha-is Askia, now says that Obama's petition challenges belied his image as a champion of the little guy and crusader for voter rights.

"Why say you're for a new tomorrow, then do old-style Chicago politics to remove legitimate candidates?" Askia said. "He talks about honor and democracy, but what honor is there in getting rid of every other candidate so you can run scot-free? Why not let the people decide?"

Imagine, cutthroating a candidate who didn't even pose a threat to him..

His reply when questioned about his political brutality:

""I gave some thought to … should people be on the ballot even if they didn't meet the requirements," he said. "My conclusion was that if you couldn't run a successful petition drive, then that raised questions in terms of how effective a representative you were going to be."

Asked whether the district's primary voters were well-served by having only one candidate, Obama smiled and said: "I think they ended up with a very good state senator."~ Barack Obama.


Yeah, his opinion of course. And whether or not it was a matter of the voters' choices...

Ohhhhhh....yeahhhhhh. Let's get Mr. Obama in office. Now there's a scary thought..:eek:
 
If Obama was truly concerned about the voter, he would have done everything in his power to be sure that Michigan and Florida were counted fully, way back when they mattered. I hear now that they don’t matter he is fighting to get them to count fully.

If someone says I can not vote because I do not have photo ID, I would ask them how you got registered to vote in the first place without photo ID (unless you live in Oregon, where voter fraud is abundant and no one needs to show any ID of any kind to register to vote by mail.)

The republicans controlled Congress...how was a man, democrat, going to do ANYTHING against the voter fraud in the states? Sides, isn't that a state issue?
 
Let's really look at Obama from facts and not white man fears, shall we?

Plan to Strengthen the Economy

“I believe that America's free market has been the engine of America's great progress. It's created a prosperity that is the envy of the world. It's led to a standard of living unmatched in history. And it has provided great rewards to the innovators and risk-takers who have made America a beacon for science, and technology, and discovery…We are all in this together. From CEOs to shareholders, from financiers to factory workers, we all have a stake in each other's success because the more Americans prosper, the more America prospers.”

— Barack Obama, New York, NY, September 17, 2007

What was meant by that statement was the Florida and Michigan primaries. A republican congress has nothing to do with what the DNC does.

Socialism here we come. Btw all of his plans to enact these "great' policies are terrible and not thought out.

I mean he is going to protect people from credit card companies? I suppose this means he feels that the average US citizen is to stupid to be able to handle their own finances?
 
Yes, Obama's childlike wishful thinking pitted against his inexperience is alarming.

But the most disturbing thing I've unearthed about him was his extermination of those four candidates in Illinois. It is a point he cannot smooth-talk his way out of, explain or justify other than ruthless no-prisoners politics.

And even that isn't as horrible as when you add in that he prances around so blatantly stealing Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s persona, a man who championed the downtrodden minorities...Obama himself having risen to power on the pummeled dreams of downtrodden minorities that he himself trounced ruthlessly!

He cannot wiggle his way out of that and they're going to pin him to the wall over and over with that one. And flatly, there is nothing he can do to explain to most of his supporters as to his hypocrisy. Nothing, nada, zip, zilch... He is guilty as hell and loyal only to himself and no one else.
 
"Change" is just a word either candidate would constitute a change. For example we are all part in our families, yet we all do not have share the same beliefs nor are we identically same. McCain was a democrat not so long ago. Another great example is when we need someone with true experience due we reach out for someone whom we know nothing about or how they work? We should want the best experienced person to do the job. Looking at their most recent speeches in pollclash, what do you think about what you hear?

Right out of the box we're a bunch of racists if we disagree... This is what the "Politics of Change" is really all about, silencing opposition.

From his platform you listed:

Obama will cut income taxes by $1,000 for working families
Frontloading the taxes even further.

completely eliminate income taxes for 10 million Americans
The top 50% already pay 97% of our taxes.

Fight for Fair Trade:
No specifics can be found.

fix NAFTA
Specifically fix what?

creating flexible education accounts
Spending

double federal funding for basic research
Spending

research and development tax credit permanent
Oddly enough, he calls such credits "Tax Loopholes" elsewhere.

Obama will also make long-term investments in education, training, and workforce development
OMG, How come nobody thought of this before? Oh, we've done this for decades.

The Obama comprehensive energy independence and climate change plan will invest in America's highly-skilled manufacturing workforce and manufacturing centers to ensure that American workers have the skills and tools they need to pioneer the first wave of green technologies that will be in high demand throughout the world. Obama will also provide assistance to the domestic auto industry to ensure that new fuel-efficient vehicles are built by American workers.
His energy plan is based on creating something that doesn't currently exist and he's confident that, once created, it will be in high demand throughout the world. Do you supporters really accept this as a legitimate plan?

The Obama plan will increase funding for federal workforce training programs
Spending
Obama will also create an energy-focused youth jobs program
Spending
Deploy Next-Generation Broadband: new tax and loan incentives
Government regulation
Invest in Rural Areas: Obama will invest in rural small businesses and fight to expand high-speed Internet access. He will improve rural schools and attract more doctors to rural areas.
Spending and wishing
He will fight for passage of the Employee Free Choice Act.
Eliminating an employees right to privacy... providing the Unions with information on who voted against Unionizing, so those employees can be endlessly harassed into voting for unionization. Unions are one of Obama's biggest special interests... But those don't count as special interests to Obama.
Obama will also increase the minimum wage and index it to inflation to ensure it rises every year.
Increase it by how much? Or don't you supporters ask such questions... One penny is an increase. He could also make the minimum wage a "Living Wage" and put millions of workers out of a job and thousands of small businesses out of business.

Tax-N-Spend Liberal. The politics of change is a smokescreen, he and his supporters hide inside the purple haze and yell racist at those who don't inhale.
 
You know, more than the smooth-talking hypocrite Obama, I've been thinking more about his base, his supporters lately. They're a funny bunch. I have been "warned" by many of them to fall in line with Obama, called names, banned from a forum for daring to speak pro-Clinton. After doing an email campaign to encourage people to look at the merits of the candidates instead of their gender or racial backgrounds I actually got a threat from one woman saying to the effect, "We know how to shut you down. We mean business."

Statistically, Obama supporters are young, under 30, idealistic and frankly a bit immature. They rightly sense that all is not right with the world and in a blind panic they have decided that the best solution to radical problems is a radical solution in the opposite direction. They don't see that radical is the problem, on either end of the spectrum.

Obama knows this and exploits it without any actual ability, nor qualifications to deliver on practical solutions. Practicality simply doesn't matter in the Obama-cult phenomenon. He knows they're coming from a point of fear and when people are afraid, they don't think so good. Add to that youth and inexperience and you have a recipe for a cult of personality. So it's no suprise how Obama can chant buzzwords to them and they latch on without questioning him. They seem to be like culties rather than sober and reflective voters. I get the feeling that he could say "We will soon be mining swiss chees on the blue moon." and if he worded it right and inserted a couple of well-timed "hope"s and "change"s in the dialogue, they would start packing for outer space.

They are so blind to reality that minorities line up behind Obama, even while they have heard of what Obama did to fellow minorities in Chicago when he ran for Senate. He even exterminated one fellow progressive minority who didn't even pose a threat to him in the polls. He danced on their heads and in utter shame he brazenly dares to borrow his singsong persona from an actual champion for minorities and true hero Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Obama is a man who, while simultaneously and ruthlessly clearcutting his minority competition from ballots, dared to run (unopposed) on a campaign under the platform of...get ready...take your Pepto Bismol...standing up for oppressed minorities... *urp*..

If hypocrisy was an artform, Obama would rival Picasso. He contorts facts, assumes identities and twists the ears, minds and eyes of his onlookers until they see something beautiful without question. And they defend him without hesitation. He represents to them a quick fix; not realizing that he, and politicians like him, are the very problem that needs fixing.

He runs now on a platform of change. And like his previous platform of standing for minorities (while he smashed their political heads on a rock), the word "change" in Obamaspeak is a codeword for "exactly the same as always".

"But he's so young and he looks so strong and handsome and he knows just how to speak to our hearts and minds. He swears he's all about change and he has my full support."

Sounds like me when I was in my 20s talking about a guy I met who I found out later was a player..

Ironic.
 
"[T]here is no magic wand to wave right now." -Bush

"[T]here’s no magic wand here that can be waved.." - McCain

"I wish we could wave a magic wand.." - Obama

I wish there would have been someone other than McCain on my ballot...

What about Obama's "so-called" 527 groups, dedicated to attacking the McCain campaign, using millions of dollars in unregulated contributions?

Oh, they don't count because their on his side.....

Obama says he doesn't accept money from special interests.... Apparently, only groups Obama opposes count as special interest.
