How Chicago influenced Obama's political career - 28 Aug 08

[VancouverDRJ]

Vancouver B.C. Canada. I was working as a News cameraman. We both worked for BCTV News together. They were people at the station that did not think she would do well as a reporter. I was behind her all the way! Now look at her in Washington...good on you Kimberly

Wow, as if Chicago has the cleanest political system in the United States! Obama is just like any other Chicago politician. There's no record of him standing up to crooks like Mayor for Life Richard Daley. If you're gonna criticize me, offer some credible evidence that he stood up to the corrupt Chicago political machine that I can verify.

Fuck Obama, he's going to get shot in the head like all other niggers should if they aren't picking cotton!

[conleg]

[chitownbound]

...and you should be shot in the head just cause.

Obama is ANTIAMERICAN.

[CloeBuckingham]

Both McCain and Obama are idiots, but at least they are not criminals like Bush and Cheney.

[CloeBuckingham]

Obama is a completely useless person. He is liberal during the primary and conservative now. He said before that Iran was no threat. Now he says Iran is a threat.

When he was a little boy in Indonesia, he wanted to become president. That is his dream. So he will say anything to achieve it.

This anchor is a straight TOOL. Obnoxious cadence.

Being the American president requires both of those things and much, much more. That is why being the American president is the hardest job in the world.

[CloeBuckingham]

What America needs is a president who can stand up to Russia.

[KiwiTwist03]

What America needs is a politician who can fix this dwindling economy.

[CloeBuckingham]

The economy should "dwindle." People consume too much and are destroying the planet. The current economy is not sustainable. It is built on oil, which has peaked. Ride your bike and shut your gob.

[KiwiTwist03]

First, I have no idea of what "shut your gob" means. That one is new to me. Second, I don't drive a car, I catch public transportation to work because I live in a Metropolitan area, which makes driving stupid. And third, I am an advocate for the environment and have been way before it was a popular issue. However, to clean up the environment does not mean that everyone should go broke or can't put their kids in college because of it.

[CloeBuckingham]

That's why Obama is burning jet fuel like mad.

[HoneySiegalSurvivor]

@KiwiTwist03 Obama is NOT a politician who has an interest in fixing the economy. I have the ability to fix it BUT these guys made records of me dead and are denying me access to my life.

Propaganda video here.

First time posting on this Al..J site.

Who is honest who will contact me and help me save us from the lie of Obama et al?

No, no, no.

Georgia was the aggressor, and the country that needs to be stopped.

They invaded South Ossetia.

The media likes to portray it differently, but despite international position, South Ossetia has been self governed since Georgia's entire existence. And Russian troops where ALREADY in South Ossetia as peacekeepers, at the REQUEST of South Ossetia.

Georgia is the clear aggressor.

[CloeBuckingham]

Russia already "ethnically cleansed" South Ossetia in 1990. Now you say Georgia is the aggressor for protecting its territory.

What if Mexico forced all the Americans out of Texas in 1990. Then they handed out Mexican passports to all their supporters. Then they had a referendum, and 99% supported Mexico. Could Mexico take Texas? Obviously, you have no clue about the history.

What america needs is a president who won't borrow 3 billion dollars a day to fund tax cuts for the rich, corporate welfare, and pointless wars. A report released yesterday says 67 percent of corporations pay no tax. The US was working just fine when all tax was paid by corporations. Money talks and voters walk so the burden has been shifted from corporations to citizens.

[CloeBuckingham]

Absurd. The income tax isn't even constitutional. Even Russia and Czech has a 15% flat tax.

Obama just wants to increase all rates and then give breaks to special groups. It will only complicate things.
