Obama’s speech is now on C-Span. I caught him in TWO outright lies.

Obama’s impairment;

#
There are a few reasons why to suspect Obama has Attention Deificit, the criteria for ADHD symptoms from;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attention-deficit_hyperactivity_disorder

.
1. Often forgetful in daily activities.

Example: Obama says he doesn’t pay much attention to McCains campaign adds, yet he knows what isn’t in them,

.
2. Often has trouble keeping attention on tasks or play activities.

Example: Joe Bidens observations;

Biden wasn’t always defending Obama...

http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/07/17/1204594.aspx

On Aug. 1, 2007, when Obama unveiled his counterterrorism agenda, the Biden camp fired off a snarky email congratulating him for his “Johnny-come-lately position” on Afghanistan, noting that during two Foreign Relations Committee hearings on Afghanistan and other subjects, Obama didn’t ask questions about the Taliban, Al Qaeda, or Afghanistan.

.
3. Often forgetful in daily activities.

Example: Obama says “ahhhhh” all the time when he isn’t scripted

.
4. Often avoids, dislikes, or doesn’t want to do things that take a lot of mental effort for a long period of time (such as schoolwork or homework).

Example: Obama stayed less than 1 day in Iraq to study what was happening on the ground

She may be unbeatable in her district. However, we may be able to end her reign as Speaker, by electing Repubs in other districts that are vulnerable...

Trust me...I understand. My husband was so upset with some of the things he was saying during his speech in Lansing...that he just yelled at him and went downstairs. Lol!

I listen because I want to catch his lies, flip-flops and analyze his proposals in relation to probable taxation. I can tell you one thing....he was very good at attempting to manipulate auto worker votes in Michigan. I hope they can see through to his ultimate ideology in that....

The House floor is nearly full with Members, staff and tourists. People are clapping and screaming “vote,vote,vote”. (This was apparently about 8:17 from web)

Thanks Eroteme, very interesting......

Every Republican should show up — in full force. And when the 20-second session occurs to prevent President Bush’s recess appointments, Republicans should conduct a quorum call.

Would this help?
