And Obama has allowed only extremely limited access from the start. What's your point?

Because no matter how much the media propped them up, lied for them, and attacked their opponents...in the end, it was clear that the liberal candidates were still losers. So the usual liberal rage against anything they or the government does not control begins to surface...and they actually post the truth (after which no liberal candidate can survive).

There are plenty of his foreign policy plans available for those who want to know.

You know, being an informed voter isn't a bad thing.

Here, this can get you started, the rest is up to you. I provided the link so it is easy...
So lets just take one of the many silly things you posted that Obama is going to do:

How exactly is this going to work? Will terrorists and rogue countries just "turn in" their nuclear material because Obama asks? Especially after he dismantles our military. I know that a lot of terrorist organizations have endorsed Obama, but don't you really think that is a bit much to ask?
How exactly is he going to do this?

Dilbert is the perfect analogy. Funny how impressive these vague generalities of hope and change sound when he reads from the teleprompter in that deep voice...and how clearly vacuous his "ideas" are when in print.

dipso,

your unwillingness to answer is an admission of defeat.




fintstone,

obama reminds me of a girl i knew in highschool. we probably all knew someone like this. she was dumb as a post, but mostly got good grades. she had mastered the art of finding out what the teacher wanted to hear, and then repeating it back to him.

obama does this on a national scale.

That is a perfect example of what liberals do. They jump on a bandwagon as long as it is popular. They try to manipulate and get their way, but as soon as it becomes unpopular they jump ship, criticize what they once supported, and do everything they can to distance themselves from the turd they helped to create.

I just posted it. I didn't say I read it and agree with all of it.

One of you guys said that" Obama has no foreign policy plan". Hannity has not told me about it, so it must not exist.

I was just pointing it out to you that he does have one. You don't have to agree with it or think it is possible in all aspects, but there is one.

You guys are funny, you're lack of knowledge and amazing willingness to not look for yourself before you speak is a riot.


I would feel like a fool if I said something as stupid as" McCain has no energy plan", then I google" McCain energy plan" and there it is, whoops.

You guys don't even research the simplest things. It is funny.

If the stuff you currently post doesn't make you feel like a fool, it will never happen!

Here's a good question, how is the liberal media going to be able to bury this story?
Second question, if Barry Obama is sooooo concerned about the poor in this country, why doesn't he lift a finger to support his poor brother who lives in squalor and total poverty, existing on $1 a month? The answer is (cue drum roll) HE DOESN'T CARE! His campaign headquarters won't even comment on him. They want to pretend he doesn't exist, that he never happened. The same way Obama will treat us if we are dumb enough to elect him.

Barack Obama's brother George an impoverished recluse

By Stefanie Balogh in New York

August 23, 2008 12:34am
Article from: The Courier-Mail

* Obama's half-brother found in Kenyan shantytown
* He lives on less than a dollar a month
* He says he is ashamed of his life

US presidential contender Barack Obama's African half-brother says he is "ashamed" of his family ties because he lives as an impoverished recluse in a Kenyan shantytown.

The Italian edition of Vanity Fair says it tracked down George Hussein Onyango Obama living in poverty in a rundown shack in the violent town of Huruma on the outskirts of Nairobi.

George Obama, 26, is the youngest of the presidential candidate's seven half-brothers and half-sisters.

He told the magazine: "No one knows who I am."

He said he was embarrassed that he lived "on less than a dollar a month" and never mentioned his world-famous half-brother.

"If anyone says something about my surname, I say we are not related. I am ashamed," he told the magazine. "I live like a recluse. No one knows I exist."

The New York Post said the magazine had reported that George Obama's 2m by 3m shack was decorated with football posters, a calendar of exotic beaches and a front page newspaper photograph of the Democratic US presidential nominee.

Senator Obama, 47, and George Obama share the same Kenyan father, Barack Hussein Obama Senior.

Senator Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, was from Kansas and met Mr Obama Snr at university in Hawaii. She was his second wife.

George Obama said he had met his presidential candidate half-brother only twice, once when he was five years old and then in 2006 when Senator Obama was touring Africa.

In his autobiography, Senator Obama described his half-brother as a "beautiful boy with a rounded head".

"I took comfort in the fact that perhaps one day, when he was older, George might want to know who his father had been and who his brothers and sisters were. And if he ever came to me, I would be there for him, to tell him the story I knew," he wrote.

George Obama told Vanity Fair he had been homeless for 10 years, and his home now in Huruma was a "tough place".

"I've seen two of my friends killed," he said. "I have scars from defending myself with my fists. I am good with my fists."

The New York Post reported that other members of Senator Obama's extended family have remained close. He and half-brother Malik, a Kenyan accountant, were the best man at each other's weddings.

In his autobiography, Senator Obama said he was a young adult when he learned of George from his half-sister Auma.

His campaign did not comment on the Vanity Fair article.

This is a direct quote from George Obama about his brother Barry:
Quote:
We have only met twice, once when I was five or six, and again in 2006," he said. " I cannot say that we are close, he probably does not even think about me.

You answered your own question, you are just not smart enough to know it.

His half brother doesn't live in this country.

Hey Sammy, I see you are up on your Republican Hate Talk Radio. Is Stefanie Balogh the same person who told you the Jefferson founded the Republican Party? you really ought to stop believing all that hateful crap, you are sounding meaner and meaner every day.

Click here and read the truth about George:

So you have the CNN slant and the Italian news story. Who has the most interest in this, who has the least credibility? CNN of course. I guess I had to finish it for you.
