"What’s the big deal. This is politics, both sides do it."

The difference is that only an accusation is needed to get ONE side tried and convicted in the court of public opinion even if they're innocent, while the other side gets a pass.

"Johnson was always a hustler (with no economic sense) who rises to the top through gladhanding (no surprise) and some inappropriate wheeling and dealing."

Sounds like a perfect match for Obama.

‘Scuse me, but at least Rush drummed up support for Hillary. Or are you blaming Rush because Obama threw yet another loyal supporter under the bus?

Did anyone hear Obama’s speech when he was off the telaprompter? It was halarious! He couldnt even put two sentences together, talking about Health care and couldnt even understand what he himself was trying to say. He said a young man with asthma couldnt even get a breathalizer(meaning nebulizer) said he was tired....uh huh!!!!

You have to listen...I hope they have it on you tube. He is awful at speaking on his own.

Hey!.....we need a creative, talented freeper to put together a deck of playing cards with pics of Osama's close cohourts complete with a line or two about them on the card......something like Sandy Berger as the Jack of Hearts who "Stole the Tarts".

Or Pfather Pfleger on the seven (rhymes with heaven) of diamonds, or Reverund Wright on the ominous Ace of Spades with "God @#$% American on it".

Man I could go on forever. I'd help with the captions.

I'm sure it would be a snap to find 52 sleazy characters in The Messiah's personal and political far-reaching cell.

Should all the fun have stopped with the Sadaam Hussein deck of cards?

Let's start one with Barack Hussein. Any takers? (....it'll take some work, but then, some freeper will become famous if this could be put together......

Can you resign from a job Obama said he never had?

Did he tender his resignation to George Soros?

The scariest part is that Obama now has more voter support then McCain, and no third partiest can beat either...so the political wind is blowing due Obama.

And as for Kennedy, she hardly counts. No really. She can barely count.

Caroline dear does count as a token, inasmuch as the candidates and all their known backgrounds are surely pored over by the best advocates the drowner's clan can buy. The clan is surely able to foist into Schloßberg's delicate, manicured fingers the names of their most reliable puppets.

This stinks the same way Bush thought "letting Ted" should be allowed to write education bills. Other democrats will defer to the Caroline-communicated choices as if they were delivered by that forever-revered Camelot victim, Jackie O herself, if not that archetypical, Jew-hating bootlegger hisseff, Joe.

Does it "count"? You betcha.
