Marking the anniversary of the March 1965 "Bloody Sunday" in Selma, Ala., Obama, speaking at a church, said his parents got together "because of what happened in Selma." Obama was born in 1961.
Obama told Larry King on CNN -- asked about that anti-Hillary Rodham Clinton YouTube ad, a doctored version of a spot created for Apple computers -- "We don't have the technical capacity to create something like that."
Obama did not know what he was talking about. Any professional media consultant can manipulate images on video. Turns out the creator -- unmasked last week as a political operative who worked for a firm overseeing the technical side of Obama's Web site -- made it at home on a Mac.
Obama, asked if homosexuality was immoral, in the wake of comments by Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Peter Pace, sidestepped the question. After pressure from gay groups, Obama issued a statement stating he did not agree with Pace "that homosexuality is immoral."
The Tribune dug this up: Obama, in his memoir, Dreams of My Father, writes of a story in Life magazine that influenced him -- about a black man trying to bleach his skin white. No such article could be found in Life or Ebony.
Another Obama stump line -- he said it again Tuesday morning to the Communications Workers of America here -- is that "I've been long enough in Washington to know that Washington needs to change." He is running against Washington yet his campaign is populated with political professionals who are Washington insiders.
"Well let me be absolutely clear. Israel is a strong friend of Israel's," he said, according to a transcript of the press conference.
He said this during his press conference in Amman, Jordan. I guess, Israelites are ecstatic about this announcement. Can you imagine if McCain had said this? it would have been blamed to his age, but with St. Barry, it's because he is a bit tired!
The next meeting was with Knesset member/Likud Party Chair Benjamin Netanyahu, who asked Obama how he was feeling. "I could fall asleep standing up," Obama said, according to Bloomberg News' Tel Aviv correspondent Jonathan Ferziger
Can you imagine if McCain had said this?
Barry still need his training wheels, and needs more babysitters now than ever before. This time around his baby-sitters are journalists, news paper publishers and editors and his 300 foreign policy advisors.
Can you really make sense of this sentence? this is what he said today to ABCNews, "Had those political factors not occurred, I think that my assessment would have been correct." Obama has based his candidacy on his judgment and now he has nothing to show for it and he will not admit his lack of judgment.
Boston.com has summed Obama's narcissism pretty well, I just hope people will see it before going to the polls:
"McCain's humility comes through in his book, "Faith of my Fathers," which he wrote at age 63, after completing a career in the US Navy and moving onto politics. Obama wrote the more self-reverential "Dreams from My Father," after he was elected president of the Harvard Law Review."
"There's no such thing as a humble politician. But when Obama looks into the mirror, he doesn't just see a president; he sees JFK."
"Obama finds criticism of his wife "infuriating" and doesn't want either of them to be the target of satire. Tell that to the Carters, the Reagans, the Clintons, and the Bushes, father and son." |
Why do you never find silly reasons not to vote for McCain and make your posts on the "truth"? Why are you voting for McCain if you dislike him so much and think he won't be President in your best interests?
