Obama supporters are praying Colin Powell will endorse their candidate

Posted by bruni on September 03, 2008

CNN reported today that Colin Powell has denied that he will endorse Obama and says that he won’t go to thier convention. The reporter at Fox News, who broke the story, is continuing to say Powell will continue to ostensibly support Obama.

It seems to me that certain Obama supporters are begging for Powell’s endorsement.

he’s a well respected military general, who wouldn’t want his opinion?

Posted by bruni on August 31, 2008

apparently the words "more foreign oil" next to a picture of obama is an evil conspiracy to make people think obama is foreign because the word "foreign" is next to his face

Paris Hilton’s McCain ad spoof is hilarious

Posted by bruni on August 20, 2008

i’m sure it’s a repost, but hilarious none-the-less

Original:

Paris:

The more idiot celebrities endorse Obama the less I like him and the more they mock McCain (who I think is an idiot but is still a US senator and a war hero) the more I like him.

too bad her policy is better than both

DIACF rather have a beer with poll: mccain or obama

Posted by bruni on August 17, 2008

he seems like a cool guy, horrible president but cool guy. much like bush. mccain seems like a total douche
McCain. Obama is a pretentious, out-of-touch elitist. McCain knows the struggles of the working man.
his response to larry king asking him about the new yorker was like, "its a cartoon, thats why we have the first amendment. people have wasted way too much time on this"

Why Obama Could be in Trouble

It might seem unlikely that the United States would elect John McCain to succeed George W. Bush when that would ensure continuation of many unpopular Bush policies: an ill-defined war with the Muslim world, right-wing consolidation of the U.S. Supreme Court, a drill-oriented energy strategy, tax cuts creating massive federal deficits, etc., etc.

McCain providing rewards for people that use his copypasta the most…

Posted by bruni on August 13, 2008

what sort of brain dead 1984 corporate bullshit is this?

is this really what the founding fathers had in mind when they spoke of a free press?
how do you think I got through college?

$0.01 per post
Maybe someone can teach McCain to logon to his own website.
Thats it he has this thing in the bag, everyone loves spammers
The sad thing isn’t that John McCain is publishing ads denigrating his opponent for being too well-spoken and popular in addition to undermining his "straight talk" image by relating Obama to Paris Hilton and saying Obama’s energy policy is recommending pressure gauges (even though experts have corroborated Obama’s suggestions).

Wall Street Journal: Is Obama too skinny to be president?

Too Fit to Be President?

Facing an Overweight Electorate,

Barack Obama Might Find

Low Body Fat a Drawback

Speaking to donors at a San Diego fund-raiser last month, Barack Obama reassured the crowd that he wouldn’t give in to Republican tactics to throw his candidacy off track.

“Listen, I’m skinny but I’m tough,” Sen. Obama said.

But in a nation in which 66% of the voting-age population is overweight and 32% is obese, could Sen. Obama’s skinniness be a liability? Despite his visits to waffle houses, ice-cream parlors and greasy-spoon diners around the country, his slim physique just might have some Americans wondering whether he is truly like them.

The candidate has been criticized by opponents for appearing elitist or out of touch with average Americans. A Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll conducted in July shows Sen. Obama still lags behind Republican John McCain among white men and suburban women who say they can’t relate to his background or perceived values.

“He’s too new … and he needs to put some meat on his bones,” says Diana Koenig, 42, a housewife in Corpus Christi, Texas, who says she voted for Sen. Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primary.

“I won’t vote for any beanpole guy,” another Clinton supporter wrote last week on a Yahoo politics message board. Continue reading…

Obama now favors drilling on the coastline

Posted by bruni on August 05, 2008

Sen. said Saturday he is simply acting pragmatically in softening his opposition to additional oil drilling along the nation’s coastline, a shift Republicans say shows he is calculating and out of touch with voters.

Speaking in Florida, Obama insisted he still generally opposes additional drilling as his Republican rival, Sen. John McCain, once did as well but would be willing to support it as part of a new bipartisan energy proposal that seeks to lessen dependence on foreign oil.

“If we can come up with a genuine bipartisan compromise, in which I have to accept some things that I don’t like, or the Democrats have to accept some things that they don’t like in exchange for actually moving us in the direction of actual energy independence, then that’s something I’m open to,” the Illinois Democrat said.

Oil drilling, a hot topic in Florida, has been a point of dispute between Obama and McCain in recent weeks.

“Sen. Obama says he wants energy independence, but he doesn’t support anything that serves that goal,” McCain said Saturday in his weekly radio address. “He believes every domestic energy source has a problem. I believe every energy source needs to be part of the solution.” Continue reading…

Obama backs away from McCain’s debate challenge

Posted by bruni on August 05, 2008

“Democratic candidate Barack Obama on Saturday backed away from rival John McCain’s challenge for a series of joint appearances, agreeing only to the standard three debates in the fall. ”

You have to limit your debates when you don’t have much substance.

I am surprised Obama will even be part of 3 debates. If Obama simply continues to pose for the camera, he will clinch the election for himself without ever having to debate.

right..thats why he debated hillary about 20 times over a 6 month period…

women don’t really let you choose when you “debate”

McCain has so much substance im sure Obama is terrified
Obama does excellent in pre-scripted speeches. The handful of times he’s tried to speak when his responses aren’t already written down - he’s terrible.

I find it disgusting that Obama fans are ok with this. How can you be ok with your cantidate refusing to discuss issues? Wtf?

Did you actually watch any of those debates? Continue reading…
