Gas and Integrity Fuel Clinton-Obama Duel

Posted May 6, 2008

Hillary Clinton hit the gas - and Barack Obama - as the two raced across North Carolina and Indiana, trading sharp jabs over gasoline taxes and integrity before Tuesday's latest big showdown in the heated Democratic race.

The candidates stayed mostly upbeat on a marathon day with nine jet-aided stops between them, fighting frantically over the 187 delegates up for grabs in the two states - nearly half of all remaining delegates.

But they fired blistering barbs in the crucial television ad wars, where Obama has about a $4 million spending edge on Clinton.

Clinton shot first, using Obama's opposition to her gas tax holiday plan as a vehicle to smack him for doing nothing to help Americans hammered by soaring prices.

"What has happened to Barack Obama?" the Clinton spot asks. "He is attacking Hillary's plan to give you a break on gas prices because he doesn't have one."

Obama, who claims Clinton's gas plan is pandering, was quick to respond. He accused Clinton of running a wrecking-ball campaign.

"More of the same, old negative politics," his ad rips. "Her attacks do nothing but harm. ... We need honest answers. And a President we can trust."

Clinton, who stands little chance of surpassing Obama in the delegate race, is banking on a strong showing Tuesday to convince superdelegates that she'd be the stronger candidate against GOPer John McCain in November.

Clinton's camp, the Huffington Post reported, is also working to reinstate the delegates from Michigan and Florida when the party's rules committee meets May 31. The states were penalized for voting too early.

On the trail Monday, Obama slapped at Clinton's integrity during a stop at a semiconductor plant in Durham, N.C.

"The majority of people do find me trustworthy, more than they do the other candidate," he said. "And we can't solve problems if people don't think their leaders are telling them the truth."

In Merrillville, Ind., Clinton insisted her summer-long tax gift was a way to help people now, while she pursues a long-range energy plan - a plan she broadened to include an all-out attack on oil-producing countries.

"We're going to go right at OPEC," she yelled to roars from a crowd packed into a firehouse. "They can no longer be a cartel, a monopoly that get together every couple of months in some conference room in some plush place in the world."

Obama's campaign pounced on her declaration, noting she's never backed legislation to take on OPEC while she's been in the Senate.

Hillary and oil

Boy, I bet the Oil Cartel is trembling now that Hillary is going to go after them. They own the oil and the amount coming out of the wells. If the cartel cuts production or decides it isn't going to sell oil to the US, all of us, including the working class she expresses such affinity to, will suffer. Furthermore, the Chinese and Indians will gladly take our share. What we need is less pandering and more decisions that will take us to energy independence.

Hagee

In noticed the corporate gave Obama a chance in a patronizing way to express his views. But as soon as he threatened the establishment corporate war mongers and their hangers on the religious right they smeared him with Reverend Wright. What is in the medias interest is the status quo in corporate profits and misplaced macho in keeping the mid east in turmoil.

Obama

Obama is the Messiah. I do not understand the "typical white people" who can not see that. They are blined by their bitterness and would rather cling to their guns and religion. I guess Obama and Reverend Wright are Right! God D*** america!

Oboma Hyprocy

He talk about good judgement and he has proof to have none, Jeramiah Wright for 20 yrs, is very sad, experience in pep talks, what he has done, what give him credentials to be president of US 2 yrs a senator, with nothing you show, I hope American people wake up, If he is so qualified why he block the proposel of Senator Nelson to vote in June in Florida by the way those votes should count, we the people vote in Florida and Michigan, and we are in Democratic Country. Dont let politics choose who is going to represent us in general election.

Go Hillary if No her, my vote is for Mccain

oil tax

The oil tax issue is a smoke-screen to cover up bushes oil grab in alaska. The oil leases to be bid on is a sham. Its giving free oil to the oil robber barrons as they take turns bidding for their free oil.

gas prices

I think that gas is to high and who ever wins needs to lower the gas pricesp because this is rediculasplease and thank u

Ridiculous

Actually "Obama guy", you know that you're an obvious fake, right? More of the same old do-anything, say-anything politics. When you have 230 learned scholars who know what the hell they're talking about tell you you're wrong, do you go ahead anyway? Isn't that what happened with Iraq? Can we afford any more of that, especially with both Hillary and McCain talking up a war with Iran (her words: "bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran")?

I don't know about you, but don't you think that an Iran war would cost a lot more than $0.17 of political pandering? We can't AFFORD to make the wrong decision here. Let Hillary or McCain in office and we'll have to pay for ANOTHER war, when we're in the poor house already!

anti-intellectualism

I'm sick of this argument that we don't have to listen to elitist experts and at least Hillary is doing "something" to alleviate gas prices...This is the same mindless attitude that got us into Iraq. Strong leadership that pursues a harmful policy is not admirable.

Obama does have a strategic long-term plan to improve prices at the pump, and it involves lowering demand by enforcing fuel-efficiency standards on the auto industry. Prices are rising because the global demand is rising. A gas tax holiday would have the opposite effect that it is intending because the seeming savings would stimulate demand. Also, the oil companies are not going to lower their prices by 18.4 cents a gallon just because they are scared of Hillary.

But then again, it takes political courage to stand up for the truth, and that's never been Hillary's strong suit. I guess those elitist experts who wrote the NIE report in October 2002 were out of touch with the regular working folks, too. That's why she could shirk her senatorial duty and vote for war without ever reading the facts.

Hillary Declaring War On Opec

Oh Goody! Just what we need is another reason for OPEC countries to smite the U.S. economy! And just what the hell does she actually plan on DOING to them to cause a sharp drop in commodity prices traded on a world market?!

As Americans have been tied to the profits of Mobil-Exon and Chevron, (et al) and realistic alternative fuel alternatives have been ignored for the sake of someone's profitability; what does Hillary plan on doing that is going to make OPEC and our own petrolium producers suddenly start selling sweet lite crude at half the going rate?

We could produce alternative energy sources. A hydrotourch that breaks water down into its' component gasses, burns them and leaves a byproduct of WATER has been in existence now for three decades or more; but this is not going to be profitable for Mobil-Exon and their cronies.

I think Hillary just wants to excite people that she really is a witch and can summon mysterious power to change the world situation to her whim. After all, look at how this deceitful witch has hoodwinked half of the Democratic Party.

(GO HILLARY, BACK WHERE YOU BELONG!)

Paul v Clinton

Hill is being indicted in Paul v Clinton, and it's been really creepy how nobody is reporting on this. I mean, INDICTED. IN COURT. SHE HERSELF. I finally discovered why nobody's been publicizing it:

Hillary Clinton successfully filed a SLAPP (strategic lawsuit against public participation) so the US press cannot report on the proceedings of the case.

The latest proceedings took place on 4/25/08 and the (Bill Clinton-appointed) judge ruled that Hillary Clinton will not be called to testify until after the November elections. Nice.

The info is out there if people care enough to look into it.

Obama's extortion

Obama started his career in public office in Chicago by using some of the WORST OLDE SCHOOL politics and strong arming that some OLDE SCHOOL politicians to this day would not employ .

What he did was bring his law school buddies in to Chicago to challenge signatures on petitions of his opposition including an INCUMBENT and former friend that had helped him previously a. They fixed it so that he ran unopposed ; he continues to get regularly caught making back door deals ; ...thinks nothing of leaving TWO states out of the primary if he isnt winning them throws "friends , family, even his granny, mentors and advisors" under the first passing bus if they get in his way or reflect badly on him ; pulls in every olde school politician he can grab ....wants the superdelegates to COUNT FOR HIM even if he didn't win their states .... but if they go for Hillary somehow SHE IS STEALING THEM ... which is is blatant extortion ... and STILL laughs up his sleeve because people actualy believe him when he says he is "new and fresh and bringing change " his candicacy is a departure from reality and most of all truth ; honesty BUT MOST ESPECIALLY COMPLETELY LACKING IN INTEGRITY

Fools

The Democratic fools are going to hand another election to the Republicans. By early March we all knew that Obama was the nominee. Clinton has nothing to gain from this outrageous behavior unless you believe she prefers McCain in the White House for the next four years. Maybe she's already planning her 2012 run? Better to run against McCain in 2012 than follow-up Obama in 2016, don't you think? Until March my strong preference was for Obama but I was willing to accept Clinton as a distant second choice. After seeing Clinton in action for the past two months I can no longer vote for her. Although I disagree with most of McCain's positions, at least he is a decent person -- relative to other politicians, not to humans in general. I can't say the same for Clinton. In the end, I don't think it will matter which candidate the Democrats nominate, the damage has been done and it's too late to turn things around -- McCain has won without even having to fight, the Democrats have beaten themselves.

Hillary pumps more gas

Hillary is trying to push this holiday gas tax relief as an issue in order to make Obama look bad. And she wants us to ignore all the economists are telling us its a bad idea. She isn't that stupid that she thinks its a legitimate effort to help the oil crisis. But she is hoping we are dumb enough to jump all over a $28 carrot.

But not to worry. She has declared the oil cartel no longer a cartel in her eyes. We have them up against the ropes now don't we Hillary? They will really beg for our mercy when oil hits $200 a barrel.

You have to give her credit for having lofty goals. No matter how unrealistic they may be inspite of her claim of 35 years of experience.

how about sustainability?

Cheap gas means more gas used, means higher prices. So the "break" will never be one. Beside, show me a workable definition of "windfall profits" that stands up in court.

As long as I see cars parked with running engines, open windows and roaring air conditioning units with no-one in them every day, I say gas is way too cheap. Compare with gas prices in Europe, $8 per gallon, anyone? And people still drive too fast there.

Maybe expensive gas will persuade more people not to buy that SUV and use the train or subway every once in a while.

At the end of the day, oil will run out, making it cheaper, will bring that day sooner.

PS: If you drive a few miles to save a few cents per gallon, you will lose money.

out of touch economists

Even though almost +70% Americans believe that we are in a recession, the majority of the economists still don't believe that we are in a recession. They claim all sorts of statistics and technical definition to defend their views. People are suffering, and that is the fact! no amount of technical definition can gloss over these pains.

These rich economists, friends of Obama and Obama himself laughed at how small $35 to $70 saving for the people. They dismissed it as laughable and gimmick. Well, it is not a gimmick for some folks when this means another week or two of groceries, a few more trips to go for job hunting. Why do these folks make such a big fuss to give people a small break and did not make a peep when Bear stearns was bailed out?

OPEC?

Oh my goodness, an all out attack on all oil producing countries? I thought that attacking oil producing countries was passé' due to Iraq not quite working out as planned. An attack on other countries who are selling us their minerals, oil in this case, seems way too 19th century for an enlightened Democrat. Perhaps an attack on those other oil consuming countries would be more effective. Liberate them like Iraq was liberated and I am sure worldwide demand would go down. Mrs. Clinton's economic theories need a tune up. Of course more likely she doesn't mean a single word, this is simply two dimensional cartooning of the world for her political base, which she must think are extremely dimwitted. Actually we are quite insulted and would prefer an actual plan rather than a scoundrel attempting to stir the masses.

hillary

Hillary is a Carpet Bagger plain and simple. If voters think she can actually deliver any of the things she has promised in the last few weeks this country's intelligence has not changed since the post civil war. Wake up people the President does'nt have the power to do all the things she promised or every past President would have done so. Take a civic lesson before you vote you are being fooled. What do you think GB wants to be the most hated guy around and the republican party wants to loose power? If this stuff could be done they would be doing it and no one would ever say the word Democrat again. Wake up vote on the real issues of what can be done by a President .Not empty promises,before you all have an empty bank account

oil tax & economists

Americans & Hillary need not worry about economists being against the oil tax. Economists tax record are terrible, most of the things they forecast have been wrong. Hillary logic is simple & straightforward. Oil companies are making record profits. OPEC and oil gaints are effectively a cartel. Getting some of BIG OIL profits to help inflation hit poor families make a lot of sense. A tax can be effective if it si well administered. With the Clintons it can be done well. Of course if it is Bush you can forget about it. Just look at the execution in the Katrina disaster. Bill Clinton excellent economic track record stands in sharp contrast with Bush horrible legacy. Hillary faithfulness standing behind Bill despite his indiscretions speaks of strength not weakness. Her never say die determination and focus will make her an effective President. Obama is an unknown risk. Given US enormous internal and external problems, it cannot afford an unknown risk. The reality is that to run the country well the President needs to work with Congress and Senate. Rhetoric of change in DC cannot face with with the day to day relaity with working in an establishment of more than 200 years. Hillary Clinton is the best choice. 2 Clintons for a price of ONE is obvious. America after 8 years of weakness will go down for a long long time if it replaces Bush with another ineffective or incompetent President. God bless America please.

Bail out

ughh Bear Sterns was bailed out as part of the New Deal Policy. The government cannot let a bank colapase again. This is what happend in the Great depression and everyone panicked pulled out of everything and it all fell apart. Since then a major part of the government and the economy has centered on not allowing that to happen again. This is not a save the rich guy scheme it is save the whole system so we are ALL ok. It may not be perfect but they decided after the depression to take these steps to prevent that from happening again. Why do you think they don't mention recession? Because they are too dumb to see one? No. They know if they say it it cause panick and things to get worse. I can't believe you people are voting for my kids next President it makes me sick.

48.) Treehouse Is A Small Company - Lie, the CEO of Treehouse last year, made more than the CEO of Wal-Mart, according to public records.

University Of Chicago Hospital Pay Is Fair - Lie, your wife’s pay raise was nearly 150% her already bloated rate (going from $120K to $320K weeks after you got into the US Senate and tried to get a $1 million pork project for the very same hospital) and the hospital is a Non-Profit Hospital, which made $100,000,000 in the last 3 years. They overcharge blacks VS whites for services, and overcharge everyone in general by 538%!

50.) I Barely Know Rezko - Only 5 Billed Hours - Lie, you have known him for 17 years, and decided to do a real estate deal with him during a time when he was proven to be under investigation. Despite this, you divided your property and had them take off $300K before the mortgage problems started. Then Rezko’s wife buys the lot beside it that you can’t afford, saving you $625,000.

51.) My Donations Have Been Checked Thoroughly - Lie, you only gave back Hsu ($72K [Yes, the same Hsu, Obama supporters try to tie Clinton to]) and Rezko (first $66K, then when caught lying $86K, then when caught lying again $150K and now caught lying YET AGAIN, it’s $250k) their money when publically called on their involvement in your campaigns.

52.) My Church Is Like Any Other Christian Church - Lie, your church is so extreme, the pastor who married you, Rev. Wright, just got done blaming the US for 9/11 and named Louis Farrahkan their person of the year.

53.) I Disagree With My Church All The Time - Lie, you only recently repudiated Wright, who married you and your wife, and you still donate large sums of money to assist the church in furthering its message - hatred and revenge. You donated in 2006 alone, $22,500 to the church that you so terribly disagree with. That is nearly $500 PER WEEK - that sure is disagreement, Senator Obama.

54.) I Have Clean Connections Despite Rezko - Lie, you are not only connected to Exelon and Rezko, you are also connected to Hillary PAC supporter Mr. Hsu, AND an Iraqi Billionaire of ill repute, Nadhmi Auchi, who ripped off people in the Food For Oil, Iraqi deal. Mr. Auchi was also found guilt in another political corruption scandal (largest in France since WWII). And this is one of Obamas' good supporters that paid millions into the Obama campaign.

55.) I never heard sermons like Rev. Wright’s, that have been in videos all day, You Tube - Lie! 3 days later during your Mea Culpa speech you said “Did I hear controversial statements while I sat in that church? Yes I did.” FLIP-FLOPER

56.) The Passport Invasion is a conspiracy to find dirt on me! - Lie. Your own Campaign Foreign Policy Advisor is the CEO of the company that looked into your records. Could it be that you had them look into yours to hide the fact you looked into Clinton’s and McCain’s more than a year before!

57.) Rev. Meeks has nothing to do with my campaigning - Lie. Rev. Meeks appeared in ads for your Senate Campaign, donated to you, and helped raise money, then AND NOW. He also seems to despise America as much as Rev. Wright.

58.) My wife didn’t mean America is ignorant, she was just using a phrase - Lie. Again, MicHELLe’s comments are perfectly in sync with Wright’s, Meeks’, and Farrakhans, both in language, anger, and direction.

59.) I am very Anti-Terror - Lie. One of your good pals is long time radical and terrorist William Ayers, with whom you have been seen in the last 12 months and who has helped the now jailed khalidi, Professor at Columbia who invited Ahmadinejad to the University, to raise money for Palestinian terrorism attacks against Israel. PS - Your church published a pro Hamas Manifesto - guess you weren’t there on THAT Sunday either? How lucky for you.

60.) I have the best plan to cure the Mortgage Crisis - Lie. You and your campaign buddy Penny 'SubPrime Bank Collapse' Prizker have had your little fingers full of subprime cash - Obama has taken $1,180,103 from the top issuers of subprime loans: Obama received $266,907 from Lehman, $5395 from GMAC, $150,850 from Credit Suisse First Boston, $11,250 from Countrywide, $9052 from Washington Mutual, $161,850 from Citigroup, $4600 from CBASS, $170,050 from Morgan Stanley, $1150 from Centex, and last but certainly NOT LEAST - Obama received $351,900 from Goldman Sachs. I am sure that cash all came from folks who knew the subprime loan they had was a dream, eh?

61.) I played greater role in crafting liberal stands on gun control, the death penalty and abortion - Lie - It was found that Obama — the day after sitting for the interview — filed an amended version of the questionnaire, which appears to contain Obama’s own handwritten notes added to one answer. Read Obama had greater role on liberal survey

OOOPS SHEEEE DID IT AGAIN

Hillary was the guest of OPEC in Dubai earlier this year escorted by her husband toy and didn't they give her millions and millions and millions and millions and millions = $5,000,000.00 or was it $50,000,000.00. Just more TriLateral (Bilderberg) (Google it) lies of support for more lies.

Atlas Shrugged - Ayn Rand

Every voter has got to read Atlas Shrugged. Ayn Rand had it right and this nation needs to wake up to the lawlessness of the Bush Administration and the continuation of lawlessness under a Clinton Administration (TriLateral Commission of the Americas/Bilderbergs of Europe - Google it)

Hilary to take on Opec?

Just shows how desperate people are in desperate conditions. From escaping sniper fires to sanctioning war in Iraq and now taking on the might of Opec is a sign of a drowning person clinging on to straws. Talk is cheap. I can see how a person who was continuosly cheated upon by her own husband now wants to cheat others! She is learning from her experienced husband. Two for the price of one!

SHAME 2 HILARY CLINTON

Hilary what do u think before trying to use your kichen formalities to destroy a nation that has build in thousand years by god,i think hilary must go back to her kichen room to feed formal president,this is the time we americans should be wise and vote for our betterment,obama here we come for a change,you are the leader we need for our generation,

So Where's We At?

So the buzz is Hillary's out, short of some miracle. Of her, all I'll say is that in her campaign I saw somebody who was spewing out a lot of nonsense (along the lines of what this article was about) and desperately using every resource at her disposal like that insulting and manipulative ad about who will pick up the White House phone at 3.00am. Although a lot of people will deeply hate her losing the race, it's time to put an eye on the prize.

Our country is in debt. It is at war. We need jobs and not of the service variety. We need universal health care, if only to weed out the middle men and change the bottom line from money to the wellbeing of the entire populace. We need to reestablish credibility, at home and abroad.

Of a higher scale, US energy policy has us in a stranglehold. Our way of life and our infrastructure outpaces world supplies of energy. Competition for that energy is fierce and its dwindling. For growth, things expand and accelerate, yet unless we plan on burning ourselves out foolishly, we need to innovate new methods of extracting energy while enforcing energy mangement policies as soon as possible. And related to that, environmental threats are on the horizon and must be met with all the intelligence, ingenuity, and strength of character our people can muster if we are serious about our longterm welfare.

Only somebody who is insane or courageous or ignorant would want to seriously shoulder the greatest part of these burdens.

Although this election is important, the reality is that whoever wins will be engaged in a battle against high expectations and will struggle in gaining the leverage, in congress or abroad, to create some of the changes we need. Mr. Obama has during his campaign has called for idealism and change. His words sound superficial to me but he will need great reserves of those things if there is even a slight chance of him manifesting his speech into reality. We should not be surprised if by the end of this campaign, let alone his presidency, if he becomes a creature a little more hardened, alittle bit wiser but darker. He's going to be much older before this is through.

AGA KHAN --

Obama's efforts to connect to the Republican Party, specifically Bush, and Dick Cheney, of the Halliburton Company, dates back to the Presidents Grandfather, Prescott Bush, and indeed Cheney was once an executive officer of Halliburton.

The American military pounds Iraq with Artillary, bombs, and the like, destroying large sections of cities, and infra-structures, then Halliburton comes in to rebuild. Halliburton and Halliburton associated companies have raked in ten’s of billions.

Obama is just like the BIG HALIBURTAN. Haliburton has contracted to build detention centers in the U.S. similiar to the one in Quantanammo Bay, Cuba. Halliburton does nothing to earn the Two Dollars for each meal an American Serviceman in Iraq eats.

http://www.halliburtonwatch.org/

Halliburton was scheduled to take control of the Dubai Ports in The United Arab Emiirate. The deal was canceled when Bush was unable to affect the transfer of the American Ports.

Now we see what some might suspect as similiar financial escapading from the Democrats.

Two years ago, Iraq’s Ministry of Electricity gave a $50 million contract to a start-up security company - Companion- owned by now-indicted businessman (TONY REZKO) Tony Rezko and a onetime Chicago cop, Daniel T. Frawley, to train Iraqi power-plant guards in the United States. An Iraqi leadership change left the deal in limbo. Now the company, Companion Security, is working to revive its contract.

Involved along with Antoin “Tony” Rezco, long time friend and neighbor of Democratic Presidential hopeful Barack Obama, and former cop Daniel T. Frawley, is Aiham Alsammarae. Alsammarae was accused of financial corruption by Iraqi authorities and jailed in Iraq last year before escaping and returning here.

LIKE FATHER LIKE SON --

Recently, Obama's campaign staff have been vetted by the IRS to disclose his connection to the criminal money generating underworld. Besides, his connections to the REZCO MAFIA types, his up-coming Tax Fraud charges — Obama needs to disclose why he is a MUSLIM "PATWANG-FWEEE" and disclose Obama's MUSLIM Farrakhan mob connection to Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ. Its minister, and Obama's spiritual adviser, is the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. In 1982, the church launched Trumpet Newsmagazine; Wright's daughters serve as publisher and executive editor. Every year, the magazine makes awards in various categories. Last year, it gave the Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award to a man it said "truly epitomized greatness." That man is Louis Farrakhan. Farrakhan and Chicago's Trinity United Church are trumpeting Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama as the second coming of the messiah. Oddly enough, Barack Obama, and his mentor Rev. Wright, failed to mention Planned Parenthood, an organization established by eugenicist Margaret Sanger expressly for the purpose of black genocide. The Obelus -- Kiss-A-Cuss and "GLORK" black demagoguery of Obama's Stump Lines Echo Malcolm X, foreshadows X - PATRIOT Obama (the nuclear AGA KHAN) - the Umkhonto we Sizwe (or MK), translated "Spear of the Nation" - as the bringer of a “new politics,” rising above the old Washington ways of expediency. It's hard to think of an act more blatantly expedient than renouncing Wright when his show, once done from the press club instead of the pulpit, could no longer be "contextualized" as something whites could not understand and only Obama could explain in all its complexity. Pope Benedict XVI quoted Alexis de Tocqueville and Franklin Roosevelt on the positive role of faith in society, used the term “E Pluribus Unum” (Latin for "Out of Many, One."), and extrapolated America’s long history of interfaith cooperation efforts in his speech to America. Obama should stop suppoting our intervention in IRAQ. It’s time to introduce this false, fake Xerox - X box Obama and invite the self-indicting thief plagiarizing pipsqueke "GLORK" Xerox - X box to meet the Buffalo "GAZOWNT-GAZIKKA" Police Department Buffalo Creek. He is MAD!!! --

OBAM YOU'RE NO JFK --

"GLORK" Obama looks like Alfred E. Newman: "Tales Calculated To Drive You." He is a MUSLIM "Glork" He's MAD!!! Alfred E. Neuman is the fictional mascot of Mad. The face had drifted through American pictography for decades before being claimed by Mad editor Harvey Kurtzman after he spotted it on the bulletin board in the office of Ballantine Books editor Bernard Shir-Cliff, later a contributor to various magazines created by Kurtzman.

Obama needs to disclose why he is a MUSLIM "PATWANG-FWEEE" and stop suppoting our intervention in IRAQ. It’s time to introduce this false, fake "GLORK" Xerox - X box Obama and invite the self-indicting thief plagiarizing pipsqueke Xerox - X box to meet the Buffalo "GAZOWNT-GAZIKKA" Police Department Buffalo Creek.

Michelle Obama should be ashamed.

"GLORK" Michelle Obama should be ashamed of her separatist-racist connection to Farrakhan and Chicago's Trinity United Church trumpeting Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama as the second coming of the messiah. Beneath that Darth-Vader-Mace-Windu-Jedi-Me ssiah Helmet Hairdo of Michelle Obama lurks a Wildabeast. If Michelle Obama new what her husband -- the Hope-A-Dope, Fonster Monster -- Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama did in Harlem, she would wash her wide-open, Hus-suey loving MUSILM mouth out, with twenty-four (24) mule-team double-cross X-boX-BorraX. The Lexis-Nexis-Albatross-Abacus-Complex of Barack and Michelle's relationship with MUSLIM "PATWANG-FWEEE" Rev. Wright, Louis Farrakhan, and black demagoguery of Obama's Stump Lines Echo Malcolm X; is about as much of a Hoax as Oxfam volunteers believe in HIV-- AIDS Witch Doctors in Africa they feed.

"God damn America" - Jeremiah Wright and Barack Obama.

"God bless America" - Pope Benedict XVI and Hillary Clinton --

Michelle Obama AKA Wildabeast -- failed the Illinois Bar Exam. If Barack Obama had married Shaniqua instead of the leftist-separatist-racist-beast-'ist Michelle, his jackanapes' excitedly-fixed-elitism, Nemet-Oure-Saxas Our Father Our King -- black rage, and "GLORK" black demagoguery of Obama's Stump Lines Echo Malcolm X; would be taken a lot more expeditiously. Its expected that Obam will manage his explosive MUSLIM JIHADI -- FATIMA EXTREMISM obsession bitter. He is a MUSLIM "Glork" It’s time to introduce this false, fake "GLORK" Xerox - X box Obama and invite the self-indicting thief plagiarizing pipsqueke Xerox - X box to meet the Buffalo "GAZOWNT-GAZIKKA" Police Department Buffalo Creek. He's MAD!!!

THE SPEECH --

The Apologia has arrived and once again the self-indicting, separatist-racist Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama, promises to heal the wounds of the world. The speech is the rude awakening of mass messianism of his campaign. Apologetically, Obama the MUSLIM double-cross X-boX-BorraX has an astonishingly empty two-prawn echelon explanation of his misjudgment.

In the first prawn: with regard to his connection to separatist-racist Rev. Wright; Obama summons voodoo and juju to express slavery as beginning and ending with the Rev. Wright.

In the second prawn: Obama's speech takes credit for Ashley's dream. A dream of unity Martin Luther King, Jr. borrowed from Ashley for his historic "I Have A Dream" speech. In Obama's speech, the connective bond Ashley, the elderly black man and Obama's grandmother share; represents Obama's self-indicting rise to the Harvard Yard. For Obama, the grand flag of language is the semi-fore of words, bestowed upon our nation by the messiah-alumni from Harvard. Obama's Swoon-Song Apologia to the nation represents a failed hymn -- a hymn that fails to heal the nation, repair the world, or make this time different than all the rest. Obama's speech is a brilliant failure.

MUSLIM LIES --

The ILLIGITIAMTE MUSLIM MESSIA has blundered yet again!!! The self-indicting, separatist-racist Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama, lied about the politics of his campaign. The danger involved with this self-aggrandizing, -a-hoop, Hope-A-Dope, Fonster Monster -- Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama is that -- "Like Father Like Son" X - PATRIOT Obama (the nuclear AGA KHAN), is constantly wanting to impress America with "...his incapacity for sound judgment." In 2005, Sen. Obama voted for the Dick Cheney energy bill, which Cheney wrote in secret with the Exxon Mobil oil industry. Hillary Clinton opposed Cheney's energy bill, has a plan to eliminate oil industry tax breaks, and would require oil companies to contribute to a $50 billion strategic energy fund to jump-start research and investment in clean energy technologies. On top of the horrible crime Obama executed in Harlem, the fact is, we have to hear it from Karl Rove about Obama's latest Campaign Crisis.

"GLORK" Top Ten Obama Lies:

1. Obam said his parents met at the Selma march -- Reality: He was born 4 years before that.

2. Obam said he was a constitutional law professor -- Reality: . . . Obama Made This False Claim In His 2004 Senate Race. “Several direct-mail pieces issued for Obama's primary [Senate] campaign said he was a law professor at the University of Chicago. He is not. He is a senior lecturer (now on leave) at the school..

3. Obam said he spoke fluent Indonesian as a child -- Reality: . . . Obama has claimed on numerous occasions to have become fluent in Indonesian in six months. Yet another Phi Beta Krakatau lie from Obama. Those who knew him disputed that during recent interviews. Israel la Pareira Darmawan, Obama's 1st-grade teacher, said she attempted to help him learn the Indonesian language by going over pronunciation and vowel sounds. Truth-be-told: Obama's Indonesian teachers say Kaku-Pooh.

4. Obam said he was involved in community asbestos and housing project for the poor -- Reality: . . . Didn't happen. This was the basis for Barack and Michelle's claim, that he was a community activist on the South and East Side of Chicago. Usher United Arab Emirates (UAE) A+ lie both he and his twenty-four (24) mule-team, Hus-suey loving wife Michelle Obama have been claiming in the campaign -- Reality: The Chicago Newspaper's Obelus -- Kiss-A-Cuss:...NO-MAMA.

5. Obam said in his book that he received his racial awakening at age nine reading a Life/Ebony Magazine story about a black man who was scarred trying to dye his skin white -- Reality: . . . Didn't happen. Both Magazines (Life and Ebony), and the Rev. Wright and Farrakhan MUSLIM Trumpet Newsmagazine say, just didn't happen.

6. Obam’s Campaign Didn’t Have The “Technical Capacity” To Produce The “1984” Ad:

Obama: “But it's not something that we had anything to do with or were aware of and that frankly, given what it looks like, we don't have the technical capacity to create something like that.” (CNN’s “Larry King Live,” 3/24/07) -- Reality:...The Creator Admitted All It Took Was A “Sunday Afternoon” On His Mac. Phillip de Vellis: “I made the ad on a Sunday afternoon in my apartment using my personal equipment (a Mac and some software), uploaded it to YouTube, and sent links around to blogs.”

7. Obam’s Campaign Claimed His High School Friend Tried To Extort Money From Them:

“According To The Obama Campaign, [Obama’s Punahou Classmate Keith] Kakugawa Explicitly Raised The Possibility That He Could Make Up False Stories About Obama, Implying He Would Do So If The Campaign Did Not Give Him Money.” (Maurice Possley, Kirsten Scharnberg and Ray Gibson, -- Reality: “...An Old Friend's Troublesome Return,” Chicago Tribune, 3/25/07).

8. Obam voted to bring low-cost foreign labor into New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina -- Reality: . . . This was a slap in the face against the African-Americans who were displaced in that city. Obama also voted to place Michael Chertoff, the man responsible for the Katrina catastrophe, in charge of Homeland Security. Obama voted for Senate-Bills that gave Blackwater the funding they needed to shoot the folks of New Orleans who were only trying to save their own lives. Inextricably, the towel head voted to allow Michael Chertoff to waive all applicable laws, including murder, torture, kidnaping, and he suppoted water-boarding.

9. Obam voted more than five times for USA-PATRIOT ACT renewal -- Reality: . . . This is a Senate-Bill patently offensive to most Americans. City after city has passed resolutions condemning USA-PATRIOT ACT. Passively or reflexively, Obama chose to side with tyranny over freedom and Bush over the folks on this issue. The Real ID Act, which would allow Michael Chertoff to declare martial law and imprison Americans, was supported by ex-patriot Obama, as noted above.

10. Obam is not a MAD MAN. Sen. Obama has not exaggerated the disconnection with . . ."The Lord God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth" --Ex. xxxiv. 6; or extolled his venomous-vexatious-Vesuvius MUSLIM madrassahs'-faux-pas on us. Sen. Obama Is not involved along with Antoin “Tony” Rezco, long time friend and neighbor, now-indicted businessman (TONY REZKO); or Tony Rezko and a onetime Chicago cop, Daniel T. Frawley. Sen. Obama is not involved with- nor has Sen. Obama exhibited any nuclear security, bribery, money payoffs, or cronyism in the state of Illinois; or criminal activities related to the BIG HALIBURTAN and V.P. Cheney's Halliburton bribery case; or any political misjudgment in his escalating Campaign Crisis. Sen. Obama does not take money from people who hire lobbyists, partners of lobbyists, spouses of lobbyists, former lobbyists or state lobbyists. "GLORK" Sen. Obama Is not involved with any Hoax or Oxfam volunteers and HIV-- AIDS Witch Doctors in Africa they feed. Sen. Obama is not associated with Exiled "God damn America" SOULJAH JIHAD -- Rev. Jeremiah Wright, MUSLIM EXTREMIST Malcolm X KillA -- Louis Farrakhan and black-rage demagoguery; or Obama's Mea Culpa-Apologia; or Stump Lines Echo Malcolm X; Sen. Obama has not exulted the virtue of being an aggrieved black man. Sen. Obama does not accept political contributions from terrorists. Sen. Obama has not expressed the troublesome sub-text of the October Surprise: "X-Files" -- The 1980 election scandal exposed... the extraneous-demon-us-venomous anger driven association between Obama and aging [VX] Vietnam-era Weather Underground Radical Terrorist William Ayers. Sen. Obama has not expressed the troublesome sub-text of the November Surprise: "X-X-Files" -- The 2008 election scandal exposed... the extraneous-demon-us-venomous anger driven association between Obama and 501-(C)-Shaddy-Sharpton-Semilunar-Crescent of Allah Islam and Solar-Solecism-Sista-Soljah-Souljah-Jihad -- AXIS OF EVIL Rev. Sharpton, Rev. Wright and MUSLIM EXTREMIST Malcolm X KillA -- Louis Farrakhan, and Malcolm X Mosque No. 7 - JIHADI -- FATIMA EXTREMIST underground-money connection to Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ. Sen. Obama is not a separatist-racist. Michelle Obama AKA Wildabeast is not a liberal-leftist-sexist-racist. Michelle Obama AKA Wildabeast -- did not fail the Illinois Bar Exam and trot out her Marxist leftist-separatist-racist Socialist X box - Soapbox; X - PATRIOT Obama Is not the new AGA KHAN. Sen. Obama is not a self-indicting thief plagiarizing pipsqueke Xerox - X box. "GLORK" Obama executed no crime in Harlem. Obama is Not America's Poison -- Reality:...He's Radio-Active.

NUCLEAR SOULJAH JIHAD -- OBAMA CAMPAIGN CRISIS

The Republicans' disengagement (media bias), if not disillusionment, with the economic campaign issues is borne out by the fact that many more Republicans are able to explain, extinguish, and excoriate the name Barrack Obama with the term (JIHAD), than can name Bush/Dick Cheney and McCain -- as the Big Oil -- BIG HALLIBURTAN politicians expanding GOP IRAQ WAR ideology, and Republican White House Party Elders' GI Bill of Rights for the 21st century IRAQ WAR ECONOMY. Even among Tupac Shakur, Bob Marley, Muhammad Ali, Ben Holt, Cotton-Club to Lenox Club- a.k.a. "The Breakfast Club," Staples Singers In Ghana 1971: "When Will We Get Paid," Paul Robeson, DMX or Jay-Z . . . excerpts from the infamous Malcolm X speech “The Ballot or the Bullet” inexperienced Obama and conservative Republicans: Clinton is much more visible than GOP presumptive candidate John McCain towards affecting positively the important economic issues facing America's middle class economy. Next, Speaking at an awards banquet for the Society of Professional Journalists on April 4, "Phoenix New Times" and Village Voice Media Inc. Executive Editor Michael Lacey used the "N-word" to refer to a former colleague who voted for the godless, money-laundering, call-girl-reach-around loving liberal McCain, who collaborated with the Viet Cong, hides a Rx- cyanide pill in his check, and secretly fathered a black child with a Unicorn Crêpe Suzette look-alike, who turned out to become -- you guessed it -- Barack Obama?

When asked who they would vote for in the general election for president of the United States, the natural pendulum swing in America is approximately 79% of Republicans named Hillary Clinton as their choice. Reasons for Obama's Campaign Crisis "GLORK" Campaign Crisis include:

No excuses. Sen. Obama accepted more money from oil company executives last month than any other candidate, while he ran an ad saying he didn't take money from oil companies. Context of ad extends that oil money taken by IL Sen. Barrack Obama from BIG HALIBURTAN spells bad MO-Jo for Obama Campaign Crisis and RX for U.S. stock x-change = VX for U.S. economy. Sen. Obama's giveaways to the oil industry are not limited to tax breaks. They also include provisions like royalty relief that are worth billions. And many of the tax "increases" are simply extensions of existing taxes that do not impose any additional burden on oil companies. Exactly half of giveaways were not tax provisions. For instance, the oil companies received billions in royalty waivers. Obama voted for Big Oil -- BIG HALLIBURTAN Dick Cheney's 2005 energy bill containing "billions in dollars in giveaways to the oil companies." [ Ludacris ]

Big Oil -- BIG HALLIBURTAN -- OBAM 50 Cent LIES --

EXAMPLE:

Sections 344-345

Waives royalty payments for drilling for some natural gas in the Gulf of Mexico.

Section 346

Waives royalty payments for drilling in offshore Alaska.

Sections 353-4

Waives royalty payments for gas hydrate extraction on the Outer Continental Shelf and public land in Alaska.

Section 383

Allows oil companies drilling in federal land off the coast of a particular state to pay the state 44 cents of every dollar it would have paid to the federal government for the privilege of drilling on federal land.

"Sen. Barack Obama continued accepting donations from oil company executives and employees last month even as he aired ads in which he stated he took no oil company money, his campaign finance reports show. Obama has taken at least $263,000 from oil company executives, family members and employees since entering the presidential race last year, including $46,000 last month. At least $140,000 has come in chunks of between $1,000 and $2,300, the maximum permitted under federal law." [LA Times, 4/24/08]

NUCLEAR "GLORK" SOULJAH JIHAD -- CAMPAIGN CRISIS

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3369102968312745410&q=Fitna&total=1413&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=5

WASHINGTON -- Obama's support among Democrats nationally has softened.

"GLORK" Sen. Barack Obama’s support among Democrats nationally has softened over the last month, particularly among men and upper-income voters, as voters have taken a slightly less positive view of him than they did after his burst of victories in February, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll.

The survey suggests that Mr. Obama's proximity to Chicago, Democrat of Illinois, may have been at something of a peak in February, propelled by a string of primary and caucus victories over Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York, and that perceptions of him are dramatically trending downward.

Mr. Obama’s favorability rating among Democratic primary voters has dropped seventeen percentage points, to 42 percent, since the last Times/CBS News survey, in late February. While that figure is steadily declining, this dramatic decline came in a month during which he endured withering attacks from Mrs. Clinton, and responded to reports that his exiled former pastor had made politically inflammatory statements from his church’s pulpit in Chicago, and swirling questions about Harlem, and the criminal money generating underworld of 501-(C)-Shaddy-Sharpton-Semilunar-Crescent of Allah Islam Mosque No. 7; and what Barack Obama did in Harlem -- from which he cannot extricate himself.

The events of the last month (with the possible exception of Muslim Jihad).appear to have fundamentally altered the race for the party’s nomination and provided Mrs. Clinton’s campaign extensive evidence of a collapse in Mr. Obama’s standing or an overwhelming preference voiced for Mrs. Clinton by Democratic and Republican voters in polls: -- perplexing developments in Obama's ongoing Campaign Crisis, that could be used to persuade uncommitted super-delegates to sign on with Hillary Clinton.

Twenty-six percent of the general electorate voters who heard of the Apologia speech that Mr. Obama the self-indicting, separatist-racist Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama gave to try to deal with the controversy over Obama's separatist-racist connection to Farrakhan and Chicago's Trinity United Church trumpeting Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama as the second coming of the messiah, said it made them dislike him. And 74 percent of Democrats and Republicans said Mr. Obama's Campaign Crisis "GLORK" Campaign Crisis "God damn America" - Jeremiah Wright and Barack Obama. "God bless America" - Pope Benedict XVI and Hillary Clinton... stems from the fact that he shows continued misjudgment for even the most challenging problems. Next, the overall opinion of people in the news this year; Mr. Obama lacks the decisive capability to lead, willingness to listen, conviction and courage. Mr. Obama is no Alexander Manly when it comes to sexist-racist issues, and he uses false charges and exaggerated hate-the Saxon-race claims to play politics with national security.

The junior senator from Illinois has been doing a lot of explaining about the inexcusable company he has kept for the last 17 years or so. The complexity of Obama's extremism is that it is all about him. He's the change... as in La change, c'est moi! ("I am the State") Exactly. Barack Obama the MUSLIM double-cross X-boX-BorraX, and his wife Michelle Obama AKA Wildabeast -- the Marxist Leninist Separatist-Racist Socialist X box - SoapboX come across as condescending Ivy League black rage liberationists. A politician can not chose the family he has However; he can chose the pastor he keeps. The Rev. Jeremiah Wright has influenced Obama's liberal-elitist-separatist-racist Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammad views on a variety of subjects. This flare-up may have exacerbated what happened to Obama over the years, as his MUSLIM radicalism and demonize the White-Saxon-race, may expel the same Rev. Wright belief -- that America and its US allies brought on 9/11. In a sincere re-examination of his world-view, Obama's Mea Culpa-Apologia says this guy is like an uncle to him. To Obama the excursus of AXIS OF EVIL Rev. Sharpton, Rev. Wright and MUSLIM EXTREMIST Malcolm X KillA -- Louis Farrakhan black rage, is grounded in extremist-racist hate Israel world-view, and extols Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s praise of Barack; while white resentment of Obama's black-rage demagoguery is exaggerated and exploited. But shouldn’t his long term relationship with these despicable characters call into question at the very least Obama’s judgment? From Waxahache, TX.-- to Axis-of-Evil, Mr. Obama lied about the politics of his campaign, and knew about Ex-Pastor Rev. Wright's MUSLIM Militant Farrakhan Malcolm X Mosque No. 7 - JIHADI -- FATIMA EXTREMIST mob connection to Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ.

Colfax: Sen. Obama on Lobbyists --

“Considering that Sen. Obama voted to suspend the gas tax three times when gas cost less than $2 a gallon and has an energy lobbyist chairing his Indiana campaign, it's hard to take his latest criticisms very seriously. Senator Obama wants Americans to pay the gas tax but Senator Clinton thinks the big oil companies should pay it this summer.” - Clinton spokesperson Phil Singer

Colfax: Sen. Obama voted three times for a gas tax holiday in 2000 when gas prices were less than $2 a gallon. Next, Kip Tew, the top advisor to Obama's Indiana campaign is an energy lobbyist. Tew said recently, "I'm not running away from the fact that I'm a lobbyist. I have a healthy client list, and I'm proud of it."

May 3, 2008--APEX-- 2:11:35 PM #

The choice is simple: Senator Obama wants the American people to pay the gas tax this summer but Senator Clinton thinks Big Oil should.

The Clinton gas tax holiday is financed exclusively through a tax on windfall profits from oil companies and keeps the Highway Transportation Trust fund intact. Hillary opposed a plan in 2000 for a gas tax holiday because it was financed with transportation funds.

Sen. Obama voted three times for a gas tax holiday in 2000 when gas prices were less than $2 a gallon.

MAY 2, 2008--APEX-- 11:54:21 AM #

"When it comes to lobbyists, Senator Obama’s words might sound nice but voters need to make sure they read the fine print. Despite trying to give the impression that he has no relationship with lobbyists or special interests, the reality is that Senator Obama takes money from people who hire lobbyists, partners of lobbyists, spouses of lobbyists, former lobbyists and state lobbyists."

Statement from Clinton Deputy Communications Director, Phil Singer

Sen. Obama Has Ties to Lobbyists in His Presidential Bid.

Public Citizen: 10 of Sen. Obama's bundlers have been federal lobbyists. The Public Citizen report listed the following ten bundlers for Sen. Obama who have registered as federal lobbyists: Frank Clark, Commonwealth Edison; Scott Harris, Harris Wiltshire and Grannis; Allan J. Katz, Akerman Senterfitt; Robert S. Litt, Arnold & Porter; Thomas J. Perrelli, Jenner and Block; Thomas A. Reed, Kirkpatrick & Lockhart Preston Gates Ellis LLP; Paul N. Roth, Schulte Roth & Zabel; Miriam Sapiro, Summit Strategies; Alan Solomont, Solomont Bailis Ventures; and Tom E. Wheeler, Core Capital Partners. [Public Citizen, 1/29/08]

Sen. Obama and his thugs extort money from employees of firms that lobby and has lobbyists as advisers. "But those who lobby for a living say it's not that simple, and even Obama's stance shows some flexibility. He won't take money from federal lobbyists but accepts money from employees of firms and corporations that lobby, and he uses lobbyists and other government relations professionals as advisers... Obama has also used major fundraisers who are registered lobbyists on the state level. And he uses registered federal lobbyists such as Broderick Johnson, who lobbies for AT&T and Shell Oil, among others, as a campaign adviser. Because Johnson isn't giving money to Obama, his name won't show up in Federal Election Commission records." [Chicago Tribune, 2/10/08]

Bloomberg: Five of [Obama’s] ten biggest sources of funds are groups of employees at law firms that lobby in Washington. "While Obama doesn't accept money from registered federal lobbyists, five of his 10 biggest sources of funds are groups of employees at law firms that lobby in Washington…Among Obama's top donors were employees of the Chicago-based law firm of Sidley Austin LLP, who gave $105,750 in the first quarter. The firm was paid $4.5 million last year" for lobbying the federal government. [Bloomberg, 6/7/07]

Prior to His Presidential Campaign, Sen. Obama extorted Money from Lobbyists and PACs

Obam's Leadership PAC includes John Gorman of Texas-based Tejas Securities, a major supporter of Senate Democrats as well as the Bush presidential campaigns. [truthdig.com]

1996-2004: $296,000 of the $461,000 Sen. Obama raised as a state senator came from PACs, corporate contributions or unions. "But behind Obama's campaign rhetoric about taking on special interests lies a more complicated truth. A Globe review of Obama's campaign finance records shows that he collected hundreds of thousands of dollars from lobbyists and PACs as a state legislator in Illinois, a US senator, and a presidential aspirant. In Obama's eight years in the Illinois Senate, from 1996 to 2004, almost two-thirds of the money he raised for his campaigns -- $296,000 of $461,000 -- came from PACs, corporate contributions, or unions, according to Illinois Board of Elections records.

FITNA: Nostradamus often used anagrams: barack hUSsein oBAMa. The capitalized letters spell MABUS--Nostradamus name for the antichrist.

Remember--God is good, and is in time, on time--every time.

According to The Book of Revelations the anti-Christ is: The anti-Christ will be a man, in his 40's, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal.... the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything.

Is it OBAM ??
