Obama Camp Calls McCain Campaign liars 2008-09-15 00:08:59 The Obama
camp how now official come out and is accusing the McCain
camp of outright lying to the American people. The Obama campaign says that the McCain campaign is lying about the actual record of Palin going to Iraq. A couple of days ago I wrote about this in on Palin trip to Iraq and whether or not it was a trip to Iraq. Well the Obama camp is sticking its neck out there saying that the M Read more:Campaign
Obama has Comfortable Lead in Iowa 2008-09-14 23:58:13 I found this from the associated press on Newsvine.comTHE POLL: The Des Moines Register, presidential race in Iowa of likely voters.THE NUMBERS: Barack Obama
52 percent, John McCain 40 percent.OF INTEREST: Iowa has long been viewed as a battleground state, in part because of narrow margins of victory in the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections, but Obama appears to have opened up a wide lead. Iowa
Is the Campaigns making to much fun of each other 2008-09-14 23:53:46 Leading republicans have come out to say that both campaigns are getting down right mean and dirty when it comes to comments and ads."Both campaigns are making
a mistake, and that is they are taking whatever their attacks are and going one step too far," said former White House political adviser Karl Rove. "They don't need to attack each other in this way." Whether it be Obama and the lipstick com Read more:Campaigns
Obama raises 66 million for Campaign in August 2008-09-14 16:13:49 The Obama
camp has done extremely well with raising 66 million
dollars in the month of August
. I don't care if you are democrat or republican that is to be commended. To be able to raise just a little over 2 million dollars a day is unheard of. even still with that money raised the McCain campaign still has the lead with just about 84 million dollars in the bank. The Obama campaign has raised over Read more:Campaign
YouTube Removes Terrorist Training Video's 2008-09-13 19:30:55 This is absolutely ridiculous. While it has nothing to do with politics I heard about this and just laughed. Why was the tapes not pulled um after 9/11 seven years ago. I mean for what reason was You Tube allowing them to continue to be posted. Was it because of free speech. Free speech can be free but I will not allow people to talk about how to blow up this country. A You Tube spokesperson said Read more:YouTube

son quits working as a lobbyist due to the criticising that the republicans were putting out. His son Hunter worked for Oldaker, Biden & Belair a firm that represented colleges and hospitals that were trying to secure federal earmarks. Also recently his son got under contract with a billionaire family that was trying to legalize gambling laws and change them.Now how ironic that a sen Read more:Lobbyist

Did Palin go to Iraq?? 2008-09-13 19:14:08 An issue seems to have arisen in the media and come to my attention that whether or not Governor Palin has actually visited Iraq
. Many people have questioned her and her lack of foreign travel but apparently she seems to have had trips. These include Canada, Mexico, and Ireland. Now it first was thought that her trip to Ireland was just to refuel her plan but it apparently has turned out to be mor

Biden Realeases tax Record 2008-09-12 19:03:18 Joe Biden
Released his tax records to the public today. The good thing is that he is not a millionaire. The bad news is that he used the alternative minimum tax that the senator has argued should be changed "so millions of middle-income Americans are not hurt by a tax intended to make sure the wealthiest pay their share." So much for not being two faced.Anyway his wife made 65,000 and Biden made 1 Read more:Record
McCain for 8 billion dollar Highway Bill 2008-09-12 18:52:36 McCain has come out and said that he is for the highway reform bill that will give them 8 billion
dollars to help finish out the year. Of course though our government cannot get anything done that is not full of earmarks and this on is to. None given by John McCain but the fact that he supports it and it has earmarks make me a little worried. He is the one that said,"I got an old ink pen, my frien Read more:McCain

Is McCain McCain without Palin 2008-09-12 18:22:06 What kind of man is McCain
without Palin. Today it was evident that she makes the campaign. As Palins plane left for Alaska a huge crowd as you can see in the picture above was assembled to wave her off. As soon as it left the people left and John McCain crowds dwindled to numbers like he had back in May. On the other hand though I have heard reports that Sarah Palin's plane was so full of people
Palin Still Taking Flack for Bridge to Nowhere 2008-09-12 18:09:53 Palin is taking flack still for the 200 million in earmarks from the federal government that she took for her state of Alaska. Also in the interview with Charlie Gibson she tried to explain why she was for the bridge then against it. When Gibson mentioned that fact that some of the funding was supposed to be used for studying the mating habitats of crabs and other fish creatures Palin quickly resp Read more:Taking

Obama Fighting Hard to Stay on Top 2008-09-12 17:51:54 Obama is really coming out strong with his attacks on McCain. He is throwing everything that he has at him. Obama in Delaware told supporters,"You know, I'm not going to be making up lies about John McCain, but if you don't stop lying about me, I'm going to have to start telling the truth about you."Many democrats have now started coming out saying that Obama needs to fight back harder. One man in Read more:Obama

Obama bashes McCain in ad on lack of computer skills 2008-09-12 15:27:27 Obama is coming out with an ad that will make fun of McCain
's lack of computer skills. McCain admittedly says he does not know how to use a computer, Internet, or e-mail. The Obama campaign says that if he can't run a computer how is he able to keep up with today's country and how it functions. Obama spokeswoman said,"Our economy wouldn't survive without the Internet, and cyber-security continues Read more:Obama
Media admits McCain has small lead in poll 2008-09-12 15:05:04 Finally the liberal media admits that John McCain
has a small lead over Obama shown in a recent AP-Gfk poll. Well although it took the media how many days to finally admit he is in the lead. I though the great blogasphere writer on Monday wrote that McCain does have the lead but the media does not want to admit it. If the media is now admitting that he has a small margin what is his lead in realit
God Bless America on 9/11 2008-09-12 02:56:23 Please let us all remember that in all that is going on this special day may God BlessAmerica
. Whenever anyone of you see a military officer in uniform make sure to thank them for there service to our country. Also keep the family members of those who have died in 9/11 in mind this week as we go about our busy lives.
Clinton to Campaign for Obama 2008-09-12 02:49:22 Well the Obama
camp finally got desperate enough to get Bill Clinton
out campaigning for him. Today Obama met with the ex-president on the 14th floor office to discuss what would be his involvement. "I predict that Senator Obama will win and win pretty handily," he said.Obama interjected: "You can take it from the president of the United States. He knows a little something about politics." It Read more:Campaign
Palin Gets Grilled by the Media 2008-09-12 02:40:33 Palin was quizzed today from news reporter Charles Gibson on whether or not she has the stuff to be a vice-presidential nominee. She was questioned about her stand on foreign policy and whether or not she has any experience. While admittedly she has never met any foreign dignitary she did say that her experience as the leader of the Alaska national guard has given her experience, especially being Read more:Grilled
SC Democratic Chief apoligizes for abortion comment 2008-09-10 20:36:22 The South Carolina DemocraticChief
came out and apologized for comments that she made against Palin and her choice not to abort her son. The comment that she had previously made was that the only reason John McCain had picked her for a running mate was "her primary qualification seems to be that she hasn't had an abortion
."She then later came out and said "I personally admire and respect the diff
Obama Rebukes Media around "Lipstick" Fiasco 2008-09-10 20:28:34 Obama has just come out saying that the McCain campaign would rather talk about comment that He has made than the issues. Well I believe that is why we have campaigns. To see what you are going to say. I you make the wrong statement to the wrong dignitary I believe that there are going to be some deffinant consequences.Also during the speech I noticed never did Obama say that he was not referring Read more:Obama

Obama Tells Kids not to Run for President 2008-09-10 20:11:42 Obama tells kids that they may not want to try to be president. He stated that "I'm not sure I'd advise everybody to run for president," Obama said with a smile. "I've been sleeping out of hotel rooms for two years now and I miss my kids."Well from what I can see that most parents anyway aren't home as it is with their kids so I don't see the reason that kids should not want to strive to be Presid Read more:Obama

McCain loses support from UAW due to "flip-floping" 2008-09-10 20:04:56 McCain lost support from the United Auto Workers because they say that he flip flopped a statement. Apparently McCain said that he bought his daughter a Prius and then later said that she bought it. So they have decided to endorse Obama.I thought though that the UAW would have been made because she did not buy a Ford, or GM. I mean she bought a foreign car. Why should you care if she got a Prius o Read more:McCain
Ron Paul will not give support to McCain 2008-09-10 19:57:55 Ron Paul was considering backing McCain
in the presidential race but later rejected the appeal. He says it was due to he statement that Phil Gramm ,ex-economic adviser to McCain, gave calling the country a "nation of whiners".He also said that he was disipointed at the result of the election and the choices that people had. While Ron Paul never won any primary elections he does have a very strong Read more:Ron Paul

Linking McCain to Bush like Apes and Men 2008-09-10 19:37:18 Okay Obama, here is the plan. You must link McCain
to Bush just like they have linked men to apes. Well at least that is the idea of the democrats. They believe that they cannot win (and they can't) unless they can link john McCain to another 4 years of President Bush.While McCain is a republican he is nothing like bush. I wish he was in some ways but the fact is he is not. He has different ideas Read more:Linking
