Nobody is this stupid...

I wonder... What if Hitlery has bought him off somehow (or dug up some some excruciatingly delicious dirt) and is paying him to say this stuff so that she looks more "serious" by comparison. We know what kind of hardball the Clintoons play...

Obama might be the anti-christ.
Way too stupid to be the anti-christ. He could be the guy who zips the anti-christ up, when she puts on one of her new anti-christ pant-suits.

"Obama might be the anti-christ."

I think he's a second stringer...not so much the king of darkness, but more like the prince of insufficient light.

Could this guy be any dumber? He’s going to have tea with murdering thug rulers, invade our allies, and promise not to use nukes?

But Oprah loves him!

He is Fing up big time with this one. The downside is this is being played as "Hilary has more experience and would be tougher". Keep your eye on the Hildabeast she is the real problem.

LOL it will be pretty funny to hear Obama further explaining/changing his position on the use of nuclear weapons.

Here’s the rest of it, via AP

http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=MTZhMGI1ZGQzZDBlOTlkZWU4NDRlMjA1ZmQxZGE5ZTE=

By DENNIS CONRAD Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) _ Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama said Thursday he would not use nuclear weapons ‘’in any circumstance.’’

‘’I think it would be a profound mistake for us to use nuclear weapons in any circumstance,’’ Obama said, with a pause, ‘’involving civilians.’’ Then he quickly added, ‘’Let me scratch that. There’s been no discussion of nuclear weapons. That’s not on the table.’’

The Illinois senator warned Pakistani President Gen. Pervez Musharraf earlier this week that he would use U.S. military force in Pakistan even with Musharraf’s permission if necessary to root out terrorists.

However, when asked by The Associated Press after a Capitol Hill breakfast with constituents whether there was any circumstance where he would be prepared or willing to use nuclear weapons to defeat terrorism and al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, Obama replied:

‘’There’s been no discussion of using nuclear weapons and that’s not a hypothetical that I’m going to discuss.’’

What a joke! This man can’t be president! He doesn’t have a clue what he would do seeing he can’t make up his mind on if he’d use nukes or not! Pathetic!

Its now being reported that his next words after “let me scratch that” were:

“...There’s been no discussion of nuclear weapons. That’s not on the table.”

This doesn’t cure his disasterous comment.

Oh, I forgot the “thousands killed” in that tornado. This guy reached his level of incompetence as a STATE senator.

You better believe it. This is all about the DNC running mis-direction. The more Osama Bin Laden is taking the hits in this early campaigning, Hillary isn't getting any bad press. Hillary, is, was, and will always be their main focus.
