your name is listed when you comment on videos, so there is no need to leave your name at the bottom.

[TonyaTko]

Yeah, I did that a lot when I first got started. I found that it MADE ppl remember my name. Now I just abbreviate to the TKO... bcz I want to cement it in ppl's brains. Also Its a great reminder for those who get a LOT of comments. It makes me stand out from the pack. Now. Its just a force of habit. Thx 4 noticing :-)

[krazzenz]

obama rocks !

definetly voting for him.

FUK obhama

[MnQuiz06]

Throughout this whole campaign Obama has worked his way up the ladder by wasting his and everyone else's time criticizing every word that comes out of McCain's mouth. When have you seen McCain focusing so much on Obama. I think Obama is feeling intimidated by McCain, and is looking for anything to TRY and sabotage his opponent. Not going to happen!!

[jackspicerisland]

So YES, let's talk competence.

1. Total American combat deaths in Kosovo action: ONE.

Total Iraq War deaths (to date): 4,146.

2. Clinton left office with a 65% approval rating. George Bush is currently at 28% and dropping.

3. Price of gas per gallon under Clinton: 89 cents.

Price of gas per gallon under Bush: $4.03

[talgren]

1. Kosovo was a stunt to get Lewinsky off the front page.

2. GWB's ratings suck, but congress has single digits...why doesn't that make news?

3. 20% of US oil is from the middle east. Screw the oil companies. I am buying an electric car ASAP.

People forget:

Clinton shipped jobs out with NAFTA...and much of his economic boost was gained gutting the military. (Like EMP hardening for our infrastructure.)

All of the damn politicians are spending OUR money badly.

[Cubbsfan]

Somebody help me out here... But, did CNN, MSNBC, Husain self-proclaimed messiah Obama himself or anyone else go out of their way and asked that same question to John Kerry four years ago? Just don't remember...

[Cubbsfan]

I'll bet they didn't because those rules don't apply if you have a Donkey for a symbol that will kick you in the forehead the first chance they get!.

[Cubbsfan]

Two years ago before midterm elections barrel of oil was at 75 dollars. Nancy Pelosi and her left wing slime campaigned on lowering the price of energy and having a "plan" for alternative energy America needs in her 3'rd century and beyond. By election time oil was down to $60 a barrel.

[Cubbsfan]

Since then, thanks to Pelosi, the self-proclaimed messiah Husain Obama and the left wing slime oil this year hit $140+ a barrel. Great plan Nancy and Husain Obama, the unemployed Americans thanks you. And now you wanna give us more of the same.

[electrodyne1]

Cubsfan- please explain how Obama made oil go up to $140.

thanks

[Cubbsfan]

electrodyne1... Please explain what he did to stop it...

I do recall him saying "the problem of gas is not $4 bucks a gallon but that it jumped up so fast"

To answer your question... When you're against domestic drilling for oil the price of existing oil goes up.

[electrodyne1]

Cubbs- but you (and McCain ads) try to pin it on him. glad you addmit he did not cause it.

FYI- John McCain was against offshore drilling

until gas hit $4.00 and his advisors thought it would be good to flip.

[Cubbsfan]

electrodyne1... You better read the post again.. In it I said: When you're against domestic drilling for oil the price of existing oil goes up.

How is that not blaming him???? Please explain?

[electrodyne1]

Cubbs- OK sorry

You blame him...I get it

I won't put words in your mouth again (I hate it win folks do that to me)

But the vid is about McCain hypocricy and I was commenting along those lines. So,using your model, isn't McCain guilty too?

[electrodyne1]

Cubbs-and using your logic...wouldn't McCain (because he was against offshore drilling until just recently),then be REALLY hypocritical in his ads... when the TV ad that makes Obama responsible was made only weeks after McCain flipped?

[Cubbsfan]

Self-proclaimed messiah Husain Obama is worth over 7 to 10 million now after becoming Senator just less than 4 years ago... at that rate he too won't remember how many houses he'll have 20, 30 years. Give a fuck'n break!

[mtracy9]

It's the same old story. McCain tries to present himself as an ordinary guy but he is as elitist as they come. Bush used the same "aw-shucks" I'm one of you in his campaign. In fact W. is worth about 45 million -- most of which is ill-gotten from his sweetheart, Texas state subsidized, deal with the Texas Rangers baseball team.

[jakesunrider01]

Obama is a RACIST and BABY KILLER.

He wrote is his book, "The other race (white) will remain just that, Menacing, Alien and Apart." RACIST

He fought against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act and is now lying about it. "BABY KILLER"

hOW CAN YOU oBAMAMITES SUPPORT A RACIST BABY KILLER? i'M SORRY, THE ANSWER IS: YOU ARE A RACIST BABY KILLER ALSO.

My name is Beau Rock. I authorize this commnet.

[jakesunrider01]

Hello Obamamites, are you going to delete this post because you cannot stand the truth?

Obama is a LIAR because he lied about his parents meeting in Selma. Obama is a LIAR because he lied about his dad coming to america on the Kennedy Airlift. Obama is a LIAR because he lied about his nonexistant uncle freing a Nazi death camp. LIAR LIAR LIAR.

[Seppa2K1]

yeah !! fnally it was about time... continue kickin his teeth! Obama should not stop attacking best defense is offense...

lets win this election... the world needs it.

[givethemahand]

For McCain, the right answer would be " We have seven..Cindy bought them...I'm a lucky guy."

But, no...he says he will have his staff get back to them with that info.

The point here is that the man is not a "Maverick"...he is an old school..fat cat...out of touch... politician and he is" more of the same".

Change....Please!

[ClassicFIHD]

He did not know how many Cindy owns so he did give an honest answer.

[truefaith00]

Who cares? No really, I mean, can't we find something better to discuss? I don't care if he has 50 houses and 500 trillion dollars, to be honest.

I'd be more concerned about what he does once he gets in the White House and it doesn't matter what he has or where he has houses, he's going to be the president he wants to be, so for both candidates, all we can do is vote and then keep our fingers crossed that they do the right thing.

Houses do not matter.

[marcaGeronis]

I'm sure if McCain had a brother living in a makeshift shack and nearly starving to death in Kenya he would let him move into one of his homes or investment properties- or, at minimum, help him out with some cash. But Obama, who visited Kenya, many times has never helped his brother out. His brother gave an interview where he describes having to "fight for food" and yet Obama doesn't help him out. Charity starts at home Obama. Help out your own brother before you take our money in taxes.

[time4rebellion]

I wonder what the judge in Phili will make of the case against OB later today?

If he finds for the plaintiff OB will have to be charged with fraud.

c texasdarlin wordpress

[kraken45]

Obama may not have to worry about McCain for much longer as yesterday a suit was filed against Obama in Philidelphia.The action seeks an injunction preventing the senator from continuing his candidacy and a court order enjoining the DNC from nominating him next week, all on grounds that Sen. Obama is constitutionally ineligible to run for and hold the office of President of the United States.

c texasdarlin or american right

[mnwike]

If you don't know how many houses you have then.... you're rich and the economy is great!!

[CoffeePleaseNow]

Regarding the comment about McCain and his houses. He said "I'll let my staff get to you on that" I dont know where the Obama campaign comes up with that means he doesnt know how many houses he has. I think he was just not willing to answer that question on national broadcast. Is that all the Obama's got?

Most people could care less how many houses he has. His wife is fithy rich, we all know that.

How many terrorist, anti-american, racist, and conviced fellon "friends" does Obama have?

[jayraskin]

John McCain doesn't remember how many houses he owns. Yet John McCain is going to solve the oil crisis, the housing crisis, the credit crisis, the healthcare crisis and a multitude of international problems. All this while John McCain doesn't remember how many houses he owns.

[ItalianBitch]

Cindy is a multi millionaire due to the hard work of her family building a brewery empire. Isn't that the kind of success Obama preaches to the poor? Now he sounds like a jealous cry baby. WTF is wrong with enjoying the fruits of your labor or passing them to your children? Obama needs to STFU as he has a brother living in Africa on a dollar a month! Obama's family- UNDER THE BUS!

[unapimper]

You are right, Cindy is a millionaire thanks to the hard work of HER FAMILY. I.E. She's an heiress like Paris Hilton, who McCain latches and leeches off of. Even Warren Buffett believes inheritance should be taxed.

[MKahn84]

So now the non-American is commenting on the American tax system. You know, we don't care what you Canadians think about our taxes. I don't pay any attention to the tax systems in other countries.

For you ignoramuses like unaPIMPer, I'll provide a little *fact*: The United States (and most of our states) DO tax inhertance. I think that's wrong (not like I'll ever inherit anything), but it is the law at present.

Once again, PimpBoy, your ignorance is showing.

[ItalianBitch]

He latches and leeches off of? Proof? Cindy is a gorgeous woman with loads of money.Why would she, who can get ANYONE she wants, stick with some loser as you imply? Grow up. OF course it's so easy for billionaires to say there should be death taxes. I guess your family has never owned a small business that was forced to shut down because of death taxes after three generations. Maybe you should do some research and see who really suffers. Hint: It isn't the Warren Buffets of the world.

[givethemahand]

Itakian- I'm thinking your family never really had that happen.

True?

I'm thinking you are just spewing back something you heard somewhere.

True?

The so called "death tax" (really called the estate tax) does not kick in until after 3.5 million and if your " family business" was incorporated or an LLC, you can get around it.

Please give us your personal experience with the death tax"forcing you to shut down".

thanks

[ItalianBitch]

Right, because I just go around YouTube making stuff up for shits and giggles.

I'm not going to get into personal finances with some stranger on the internet but the summary is this. Father dies leaving majority ownership to son. Son pays at that time 55% of tax above 500k in assets. Son dies 5 years later and his daughter and son pay 55% of tax above 675k in assets which also include the value of the family business. The death tax is $2m right now BTW not 3.5.

[givethemahand]

Italian. 3.5 M is the new top rate ( it's going up)

[ItalianBitch]

So much for you being a CPA..it's not 3.5 until NEXT year and then it's repealed in 2010.

Ooops!

[givethemahand]

I didn't say I was a CPA..I said I have one.

And "repealed" is not the right word.

Why so hostile?

[ItalianBitch]

Another thing, you are SORELY mistaken if you think you can dodge the death tax by having an Inc. or LLC after your business name. Good grief are you an idiot. Get an accountant.

[givethemahand]

Italian- I have a CPA from a large firm and I have experience in these things.

Please reframe from personal attack.

[ItalianBitch]

Yeah, from Sally Struthers internet school of rejects.

You a CPA? LMAO! The CPA that thinks you can dodge the death tax by incorporating or setting up a LLC!

Thanks for the morning laff!

[givethemahand]

Italian...you know I recanted on the LLC comment, and I did not say I was a CPA.

Please relax.

[givethemahand]

I can refer you to info on avoiding estate tax through C corp.

May I sen it to you?

[afg231]

mccain is a rich fag. lying cheating dumb bastard.

[unapimper]

Obama earned his, he's a self-made man. McCain married into his wealth. Obviously he doesn't make as much, he just leeches off his wife.

[MKahn84]

How did Senator Obama "earn" his money? Oh, right, he wrote some books. That's one of the oldest scams around - it's the perfect way around finance laws. You put out a book. People, businesses, and organizations can buy as many copies as they want without breaking any laws. I note that once he became a Senator, suddenly his wife's income more than doubled, too. Just like Senator Clinton's income when her husband became governor.  Once again, the perfect scam.

[DuffDaddyHill]

I know writing books is so sleazy... just look at Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, and Michael Savage. What a loathsome lot those book writers are.

[MKahn84]

Here we see proof of what drugs can do to the human brain, ladies and gentlemen. We have here a person who cannot differentiate between a *politician* writing books - where the vast majority of purchases are in bulk quantities at retail price and nothing more than a donation in disguise - and an ordinary citizen writing books. Worse, this clueless wonder thinks O'Reilly is *conservative*! Mommas, don't let your kids grow up to be morons like this loser.

[unapimper]

So you're not a big fan of books eh? Thanks for clarifying your level of education. Your 4th grade home room teacher should give you a star and a cookie for the day! Good job!

[MKahn84]

Oh, the foreigner - who has as much business commenting on *our* political process as I have commenting on his - proves once again how out of touch with reality he is. Just like DuffBoyRetard above, he can't differentiate between a politician writing a book and the book I just finished on the use of Genetic Algorithms in numeric methods. Next we'll have this amazing pea-brain equating the Bible or the Koran with the Adventures of Tintin.

[unapimper]

Oh yes, awesome! The fist-shaking if-it-weren't-fer-dem-damned-f­erriners war-cry. I love it! I don't believe in stereotypes but it's good to laugh at one every once in a while. You can boast of your imaginary credentials and books all you want ON THE INTERNET, all I'm going to see in my head when I read your post is a rabid, white-knuckled fist-waving redneck with buckteeth yelling "I wrote a book on genetic algorithms, dammit!". The imagery really is quite comical if you ask me!

[MKahn84]

Pretty good coming from a guy who won't put a picture of himself on his profile. If you want to know what I look like, check my profile. That's me.

I've got nothing against foreigners. I've lived in Europe before and enjoyed myself. If you would read what I actually wrote (I know, reading comprehension is difficult for you), you would note that I spoke only of foreigners chiming in on our political process. But that's too sophisticated a concept for a dunderhead like you, isn't it?

[ironlungs33]

Oh yeah, like Jerome Corsi's book. It's on the best sellers list. How did it get there? Republican Political Organization buyers massive pre orders.

Obamas books sold well to the general public. He is a solid author, didn't have someone else write for him. That IS earning it.

[talgren]

Tell me another one, uncle Barry. You guys both have more money than a majority of Americans. Obama income (filed jointly): 2007 - $4.1M 2006 - $991K 2005 - $1.65M Net worth: $1.3M McCain income (filed separately for years since his wife is much richer): 2007 - $386K 2006 - $338K 2005 - (sorry) Net worth: $40.1M Sources: tinyurl-com/6bxv6x (Replace the dash with a dot and you can use it.)

[ironlungs33]

Nothing wrong with being rich, especially if you EARNED IT! But TEN houses? That's excessive in most peoples book. This serves to highlight that McCains TAX plan would give more back to the RICH, whereas Obamas would help many many more middle class Americans. TEN HOUSES????

[talgren]

...ten houses or fifty. That's an interesting question. Are some of those homes investment properties? (Most rich people made their money in real estate.) Does he have multiple homes for security reasons? How many were inherited?

As for tax increases, I figure you must not have read anywhere the top 50% pay 97% of taxes. Source: tinyurl-com/6hnh5a

Half of the country is paying for the other half. Which half are you? (I'm betting you're in the top 50% but just didn't see this.)

[dougladon27]

yes obama tell them about the wicked

[digitalX198]

Who cares how many houses you have as long as you can run the country. Neither of these idiots can run the country because it is controlled outside of the Oval Office.

[avoidPropaganda]

How is Obama lying. He was using quotes. It looks like McCain's houses are valued at almost 14 million. How does that compare to 1.5 million?

[talgren]

McCain made most of his money off of his wife...who has a *lot* of money. (Remember Kerry?)

(Perhaps this is just a case of one millionaire bitching about another millionaire.)

[Davesgonewild]

Everything puzzles you!

[Nominay]

Look at Tim Kaine in the bg. Does he look like someone who was just told he's been selected to be the VP nominee? He looks kinda unhappy to me!

[MKahn84]

This coming from a man who bought a house for over $1.5 million with the help of Tony Rezco? People who live in glass houses - even $1.5 million glass houses acquired with the help of a scandalous criminal - really should not throw stones.

[unapimper]

Way to divert the topic, simpleton! Clinton tried that Tony Rezko crap on Obama already and guess what, it didn't work at all. Fact is Obama has never been implicated in any wrongdoing. And MORE to the fact, at least Obama WORKED for his $1.5 home and wealth, and didn't marry into it like Kerry. Check-and-mate motherfucker. LOL.

[MKahn84]

Simpleton? You totally missed the point and you're calling me simpleton? You're so clueless that you think I was diverting the topic, and *you* think *I* am a simpleton? You, who aren't even intelligent enough to craft an insult without descending into swearing. Thank you for making me laugh, you cretinous myxomycete.

[DereckLamar]

The fact of the matter is Obama had no wrong doing in that. with rezko no connection the court found.

[MKahn84]

The courts also said that OJ didn't kill his Nicole. There was no wrongdoing under the strict burden of proof required by a court. There is no doubt that Tony Rezko helped Senator Obama with the arrangements. There is no doubt that Tony Rezko is a person with a *very* shady reputation and multiple indictments, who will probably end up in jail. Birds of a feather, my man, birds of a feather.

[DereckLamar]

Were is your proof that Obama did wrong-doing with rezko? The only proof out there is the money obama got from rezko he donated to charity.And there is no soild proof that Obama delt with rezko. If you wanna play that game what about Mccains Tony reed lobbyist connection?

That Mccain have on his campaign right now..

[MKahn84]

I should know better than to try to talk sense to a tool like you. It doesn't matter what proof there is, True Believers won't believe it.

What's McCain got to do with it? Who cares if a lobbyist is on his staff? Campaign staffs are temporary jobs, so everyone on his staff probably has another job!

BTW - If you think I'm a McCainiac, you're a moron. Just because I think Obama is reprehensible doesn't mean I like McCain.

Get a clue.

[unapimper]

You know what, you sound like you know a lot about all this. If you're so right, why don't you prosecute Obama yourself? Get yourself a case and get Obama indicted! Please do it, I dare you. Maybe you can call Judge Judy! Hahaha. Tin-foil hat comfortable enough?

[MKahn84]

Now you're really proving how much of an idiot you are. I have no standing to prosecute an Illinois resident. Any case I brought would be dismissed immediately. You should try some deep breathing exercises! Your brain - what little of it exists - is obviously seriously oxygen deprived.

[unapimper]

Glad you know your own limits, 4th-grader. You may keep wearing your tin-foil hat and rant about the supposed link of Obama to Rezko's crimes on the internet. I'm sure it's very therapeutic, lol.

[ironlungs33]

AGREED! Obama had ZERO, ZILCH, NADA wrongdoing. Get it through your thick skulls.

Obama has worked very hard to be as successful as he is, and he does own a nice house. That is ONE house! McCAIN owns 10 houses, and is way out of touch with what people making 25,000 a year have to cope with to raise a family. McCain spends more on televisions in his houses than an entire middle class family earns.

[unapimper]

I addressed your feeble attempt and linking Rezko to Obama, i.e. it didn't stick with Clinton, and won't stick with you or any McCain surrogates. Before you mash your keyboard in your face again, let me just rub this one in one more time for you: Obama earned his wealth and remained faithful to his family. McCain married into his by dumping his first family. Who has more morals and values? Keep choking on that, troglodyte. LOL.

[MKahn84]

Remarkable! You're such a Kool Aid drinker that you really believe there is no link between Rezko and Obama? Further, you assume that I'm a McCain surrogate because I criticize Obama? It was obvious from the start that you're cognitively challenged, but I didn't realize how severely mentally impaired you really are. I sincerely apologize; it was terribly rude of me to take advantage of a blithering idiot.

[unapimper]

Whoa, for a kool-aid drinker, you sure don't wipe your mouth very well! Please keep piling that on along with your William Ayers, Rev. Wright, Louis Farrakhan delusional conspiracy theories and see how many people who don't wear tin-foil hats would take you seriously. Like I said, Clinton tried all that and failed. You will fail just as much, just with more hilarious desperation. Who do you support then, Nader? Barr? Baldwin? Hahaha, enjoy irrelevance!

[MKahn84]

You don't even have enough wit to come up with a fresh epithet! You just parrot back the "Kool Aid" expression I used.

You seem to think *your* vote matters any more than mine. You should get a clue how the Electoral College system works. My state will go for Senator McCain, no matter how I vote. Oh, but your profile says you're in Canada. Are you even a citizen of this country? It looks like your FOREIGN opinion on this is so utterly worthless that it isn't worth replying anymore! Go away!

[DuffDaddyHill]

Yeah right on man!!! Who give a DAMN what our closest allies and trading partners think!!!! Fuck them!!!

[MKahn84]

Look at the guy's name: "unaPIMPER" If you think he's representative of the leadership of our allies and trading partners . . . yeah, go smoke some more of that crack that's obviously addled your brain.

[unapimper]

Hey, it's a free world, youtube is not just for Americans you know. I never said anything about me voting, I just think an Obama presidency would take angry ignorant fools like you to the woodshed and put America back on the right track. You guys want to lead the free world, you should pay attention to voices from other nations. This isn't the 15th century anymore.

[ironlungs33]

i agree, and I AM an America. Why the majority of Americans don't see right through McCain is a mystery, and not something those of us who are critcal thinkers are proud of.

Obama 08'

[MKahn84]

@unapimper: We don't WANT to lead the free world, which is why we don't do a very good job at it. It falls on us because the rest of you are such poltroons that we get the job by default. So we end up having to be responsible when some bad guy starts causing trouble and all you wimps are wetting yourselves.

[MKahn84]

@unapimper ("This isn't the 15th century anymore)

Good one. Exactly what was happening in the United States and Canada in the 15th century? Someone clue in this loser - apparently his education was as woefully lacking as is his ability to speak/write intelligently. Sorry, Mr. Canadian Pimp, it would appear that your analogy is as vacuous as is your skull.

[unapimper]

For someone who feels the need to blurt out "I wrote a book on genetic algorithms!" when challenged on his grade-school yelping, you sure don't get hyperboles very well. Keep flipping through that thesaurus when you yelp, but don't let your flippant gargling distract you in anyway from your daily dose of saturday morning cartoons pre-taped from your VHS.

[MKahn84]

I didn't say I wrote that book. I'm too busy earning a living to write a book. (Do you even have a clue what a genetic algorithm is?) I have no need of a thesaurus, in fact, I don't even own one. My VHS machine has been in my attic for years. Methinks thou dost protest too much. The more you rant, the more you identify whose education is a joke. Have you figured out yet what the United States was doing in the 15th century? A clue: Not much.

[ironlungs33]

John McCain has 10 houses. Barack Obama has one.

[MKahn84]

This coming from a man who bought a house for over $1.5 million with the help of Tony Rezco?  People who live in glass houses - even $1.5 million glass houses acquired with the help of a scandalous criminal - really should not throw stones.

[marissacalderon]

Keep spreading LIES Obama, you are no better than McCain. Anyone interested in the truth watch my two top favorites. And anyone who wants to debate me, that's fine, use intelligence instead of useless comments.

[hypnofan35]

You will never get anything out of the "fortress of solitude" excuse me "fortress of idiocy"! McCain is a good deal like bush; A fortress of unintelligible blather and gibberish.

[gungagin]

See you next week Obama! Can't wait!!!!!!!

[spetznas1980]

OBAMA DESTROY THE PLANS OF BUSH AND MC CAIN TO START A WAR AGAINST RUSSIA!!

I believe in your peace you talking about.
