Yhello! Yhello! Yhello!
Yhello!
These Democrats need to get angry. We need to hear them kicking and screaming about this terrible country and how they are going to save us all!
Hey Fuddy.
On FOX a bit ago they were showing Hillary supporters of all ages marching with signs through Denver. They are P*****.
James Carville and Terry McAluff are leaving the convention early.
The controlling dems really cut off the Clinton’s at the knees. I guess they don’t think Obama can handle them.
Mitt was on Cavuto’s
Oh, cut it out!
;-)
aawwww, your new Sylvester is adorable!!
I am beginning to believe that creeping dementia claim that some have made about Bill Clinton. The cold stone calculator or the nineties would never have been caught with wistful undermining. He would have been whacking someone in secret, now whining to media.
Don’t forget, slam the rich.
Oh, and that’s Jake Tapper, not Jack.
How you doing?
He really IS a sweetie. Butler (dog) is doing fine with him, but Libby (cat) is most unhappy. =(
I gotta start working on dinner, but I’m listening!
Did I mention he’s 9 years old?
Jack Kerowac? (not sure of the spelling)
Ok- NOW it’s getting out of hand with this guy- he wants a CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION on the Bill Ayers ad- he’s sending ANOTHER LETTER- after yesterday’s letter they decided to REALLY step in it (see below). There’s speculation that this is a pre-emptive shot- because the Annenberg papers are now being pored through by the press- thanks to Stanley Kurtz

Obama camp: Prosecute Simmons
Obama general counsel Bob Bauer today sent a second, sharper letter to the Justice Department, directly attacking the Dallas billionaire funding a harsh attack ad, Harold Simmons.
“We reiterate our request that the Department of Justice fulfill its commitment to take prompt action to investigate and to prosecute the American issues Project, and we further request that the Department of Justice investigate and prosecute Howard (sic) Simmons for a knowing and willful violation of the individual aggregate contribution limits,” he wrote.
He called the group’s activities “patently illegal.”
Bauer made the case that Simmons’ group fulfilling its a real nonprofit charter because it hasn’t spent any money on anything other than attacking Obama.
The American Issues Project released a statement responding to the letter.
“Having failed in its attempts to get our legal, factual and fully-supported ad off the air, Barack Obama’s campaign now wants to put our donors in prison for exercising their right to free speech,” said Ed Martin, the group’s president. “These over-the-top bullying tactics are reminiscent of the kind of censorship one would see in a Stalinist dictatorship, with the only difference being that those guys generally had to wait until they were in power to throw people who disagreed with them into jail.”
The group said its ad would continue to air through the end of the Democratic National Convention. Simmons has spent almost $3 million to air the ad, which can be seen on the group’s site.
A spokeswoman for the Justice Department, Laura Sweeney, had no comment on the second letter.
It’s worth noting that this isn’t the first time Bauer has called for criminal investigations and prosecutions into the donors to independent groups critical of Obama, including one supporting John Edwards and another supporting Hillary Rodham Clinton. His words did have the effect of scaring their donors and consultants, but haven’t yet appeared to result in any prosecution.
The Clintons want someone to pay off their debt if they sing for Nobama. Maybe Nobama will pay them off in exchange for a few delegates who will pretend they like him.
Most of these Dems are pretending Nobama will win.
Man, I love that narrator! Throw me on the ping list man or whoever does it.
quack quack
the demo folks
are in a crack
