I just like to be right. The World Nut Daily (or whatever it’s called these days) is pushing a story that Obama was doing coke with some guy in 1999 - oh yeah, and he says they had sex, too. It’s all over the wingnut intertubes. They’ve offered him a big fat reward if he passes a lie detector test!
I told you. It doesn’t matter who we run. This is the kind of crap that God’s Own Party will throw at us, no matter what.




It was with Vince Foster. Which is why Hillary had to kill him.
Yeah, I know the years don’t work out exactly, but that doesn’t mean it’s not true.
I thought GOP was “Gross Old Pedaphiles”…
So stop retelling the lies.
Nothing like playing Telephone on the intertubes…
“I told you. It doesn’t matter who we run. This is the kind of crap that God’s Own Party will throw at us, no matter what.”
Too right. They managed to portray John Kerry as a snivelling coward who lied about his medals, while George Bush Jr. was a brave veteran who was leading us to glory. If they can pull that off, then why not throw some crap about Obama against the wall and see if they can make it stick? Has the “story” made FOX NEWS yet? It will … they gotta “report on the controversy”, doncha know … ^_^
Strudel: Yeah, right. Susie’s making us aware of what’s circulating on the wingnut web about Obama is *exactly* the same as ‘retelling the lies’ and ‘playing telephone.’
What *is* your problem with Susie, exactly?
hey mashed apples, crumbs, sugar and inaccurate (by design) blunderbusses!
you are wildly mistaken as to the role of oppo and rapid response work.
its not something best left to drudge to shift to cnn and _then_ we play get-a-clue.
Have we forgotten that the last time we elected an inexperienced “uniter” who advocated “change”, to whom the press largely gave a free ride, we got George W. Bush?
If you believed Bush was a uniter you probably believed he was a Christian too.
Bush has destroyed every business he has ever touched.
He’s doing a very good job destroying the US.
Obama does not have that track record.
Comparing Bush who can’t even form a sentence to Obama is insane.
yo, langx i don’t see ten bears saying he believed those things. but that is how chimpy was sold and presented. maybe you’re not old enuff to remember but some of us who are are a bit frightened by the similarities. not in the candidates themselves…they’re both way too corporatist for my tastes, frankly, but their rabid followers.
Somegirl - are you saying OB is too corporate? Not compared to HRC and her BFF relationship with big pharma and Ins…(two very big players in the healthcare question)…
Everyone always says “wait till the Rep machines starts on OB” etc. Why are the dems so afraid? America fell for the hate-machine crap for the last 8 years. I think we are over it. OB has remained tall and carried every kind of state (working class white, south, NE, west)…he has the support from every class of voter. He will carry the day and the hate-machine will be ignored. All we have to do is keep showing the photo of McCrazy and W hugging each other.
Fer cryin out loud. Of McCain, Obama, & HRC, McCain is probably the least corporate, considering his campaign finance reform laurels. Does that mean he should be preznit? No.
Think about who you want to hand the keys to this bus to, because there’s a cliff right up ahead, and the brakes don’t seem to work.
Newsflash: Fear doesn’t work anymore.
