On a personal note, several credible, reliable people have told me that Obama staffers have been forwarding out the story about Sarah Palin's youngest son not being her own. In fact, the New York Times vaguely referenced the story the other day. They would not do that if lowly bloggers were pushing the story. It had to be a connected Democrat.
Barack Obama says his staff has not been pushing these stories.
But let's delve into the heart of this matter.
When Hillary Clinton supporters started questioning whether Obama actually was born in the United States, who published the birth certificate? Daily Kos did. Barack Obama sent it to Daily Kos to get it out there. They have a close relationship, the campaign and website do.
When Barack Obama wanted to reach out to the netroots, where did he go to blog? At Daily Kos.
What site does Barack Obama have in his RSS reader? Daily Kos.
Barack Obama himself admits he reads Daily Kos.
We know from Ben Smith at the Politico that Democrats are pushing out the story about Sarah Palin's support for abstinence only education. They were doing it before the announcement and now they are really doing it.
So today Barack Obama says he'd fire people from his staff who are pushing stories about the Palin family children.
Maybe he needs to start looking into his staff.
The pattern is clear: Obama's campaign pushes information to Daily Kos. Daily Kos then spreads it and gets it into the media (probably because a lot of reporters are also diarists there). Given all the other ever changing statements from Obama, how exactly can we really believe his denials now, given his pattern and the connections?
BTTT
yet mroe lies form Obama
Oh yeah! And he's going to give contributions back to corrupt donors and foreigners.
I don’t believe a word Barack Hussein Obama says about anything.
Good point. He’s one of them in philosophy, all right.
The Chicago political machine knows that it’s better to completely eliminate your opponent rather than face them in a fair fight. Obama can’t eliminate McCain on the national stage, but he sure as hell can do everything possible to cut him off at the knees, no holds barred. However, I’m pretty sure McCain and his team knows what they’re up against (as Obama himself threatened not too long ago). So far, they’ve run an excellent campaign without coming across as thugs. Obama and Axelrod have no idea how to achieve that delicate balance.
We need a special prosecuter, an independent counsel, to look into what obama staffers are leaking these smears. Obama should support that, since he wants to get to the bottom of this and wants to fire those responsible.
The term "abstinence only" was created by the left as to imply that the President's program demanded teaching ONLY abstinence. Of course the truth is the President created a grant that gave state's money if they INCLUDED an abstinence component in combination with all other SEX education.
By definition abstinence is the absence of sexual relations so the modifier "only" is simply redundant in reality and subterfuge in practice by the left.
So is Obama ready? As compared to Sarah? Sure. As compared to John or Joe? Probably not.
So lets continue to have the experience argument. It works for me.
Silly me. I thought The One was conceived out of wedlock.
I wonder what type of sex ed is taught in her daughter’s school???????
obama wants to play it both ways.
oh hurricane...won’t talk about mccain...must show sensitivity
but for Biden, it’s ok.
I read on another site that was discussing pictures that the person who started this on KOS goes by the name ArcXIX. He/She was described as a “high-ranking Obama advisor” in a way that this was considered a good thing. Perhaps someone who knows how to do this kind of thing should find out who ArcXIX really is and then find out if this true. Someone like Charles Johnson could probably do this if he knew about it. Does anyone else know how to do this?
if a teenage girl and a boy really want to have a baby, no education or condoms or anything will stop them.
Remember the group of girls in Boston that made a pregnancy pact? There’s a limit to what parents and teachers can do.
barry is a frelling muzzie... they lie... it is what they do!

Wasn't it Bill Buckley who said....."he'd rather be governed by the first 100 people in the New York phone book than by any of those in Congress?" Or...something like that. I feel the same. Palin is a strong woman...I predict Biden is not ready for what he's up against.
That big-eared muzzie does NOT hold a candle to Palin... you are wrong.
