Why I Support Barack Obama 2008

How did that hope and change work out for you?

[EdwinRutsch]

typical Failed Conservative Values of Name Calling and demeaning. That's why 80% of the country says it was going in the wrong direction of Failed Conservative Values and have rejected them.

[Digitalbumpin]

Any white that voted for Obama is a traitor to their race.

Blacks aren't educated because they would rather sit on welfare and commit felonies all the while crying the man is keeping them down.

Oh, and using the word pragmatic over and over doesn't impress anyone.

[burgerwisdim]

brainwashed and wantonly ignorant Americans = the fruits of fear and political correctness. What an acid test.

[saramarielisa123]

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!!!! AT LEAST HE CAN CONTROLL HIMSELF!!! McCAIN WAS GETTING TOLD AT ONE OF THEIR DEBATES!!!

[opticfire]

It seriously blows my mind how all the Obama supporters talk about how they think he's going to do the things he says he's going to do, but no one really looks at his track record....the small one that it is! What has he done? How do you know he's going to do what he says?? He's feeding you bullshit!! Tell me some facts about this "change" he's gonna bring?? What kinda change??? Change we don't need and really can't afford either. If you're gonna make a video, have some facts not just opinions!

[republicansrule]

hey lady the factories closed becuase of democrat supported labor unions forced management into bad deals and now they cannot compete.I would like to know what 3 pieces of legislation Obama has sponsored and passed in his 180 days in the senate? answer NONE! He is NOT qualified!

[quhawks48]

These two broads are full of shit. Barack is worthless in an 'off the cuff' situation. If he is not reading from a teleprompter then he speaks the same gibberish these two nit-wits spew.

[ShereNelson]

obama is half black.....

[babri62]

With Obama as president, the U. S. is less likely to be attacked. Many Moslems will believe that he will be fair in his approach to the Middle East and not one sided as the Bush administration and McCain are. Obama did not name himself. He was named by his parents as most of us are.

[francoUSAxyz]

The audacity of mass hypnosys and hypocracy. The Obama is a closet homosexual. I would not want that sacred cow as a role model.

[golfingrobert]

obama, landslide 08

[carcabe]

Obama is NOT for change. He is for more of the same. Way too much more of the same. A lethal dose of the same. More government control and confiscation of our wealth. Resulting in more poverty and misery. People were meant to be free. Freedom will not create a utopia just the best possible world.

[pineapplechunks3]

You're right he doesn't lie about his past...he just pretends he doesn't remember it. When the economy is taking a shit I want a charismatic inexperienced candidate who is non threatening...Oh wait, NO I DON'T. The view up Obama supporters asses must be really awesome cause they spend a whole lot of time with their heads up there. If you want Obama's America then move to France.

[geroldfirl]

Hillary supporters will be split. The progressives will go to Obama, the reactionary lemmings will swarm for McCain.

But don't forget, Obama will get the thinking independents and Republicans too.

If SAmerica has the courage to face tghe future with hope and dares to dream, we'll get Obama in 08.

If America fears the future, and dares not face and overcome the next challenges, then McCain will pretend to defend us.

I don't think we've sunk that far. I think we'll choose hope.

[geroldfirl]

You're right luki, stupid don't fix. And it makes it almost impossible to fix ignorant too. But you don't even notice anymore, so your bliss is complete.

But here's a clue: if you weren't so obscene and obnoxious, your stupidity wouldn't be nearly as annoying.

[geroldfirl]

Hey luki, what do you say we make sure Obama wins in november? All we need to do is have you and other dim crackers just like you keep flapping your gums. The fact that whiny losers like you are against Obama makes him look better all the time.

It's true Obama doesn't connect with everyone. Fools, haters, dimwits, racists, retards and right-wing fanatics don't connect with him at all. But that's OK. You've still got your barnyard buddies and the fowls of the earth.

[geroldfirl]

I'll lay some education on you, luky. Free of charge.

Ignorance is defined as lack of knowledge. Usually, though not always correlated with lack of intelligence.

I'll use it in a sentence: lukatmee is a pathetic youtube clown with pretensions of sentience and protuberant ignorance.

Zip it boy, your ignorance is showing.

Is that ignorance on your face, or do you just have a bad case of scabies?

You just got served, punk. Chase it with some moonshine and stop bothering the grownups.

[geroldfirl]

Actually, luka boy, if you weren't such an ignorant hometard you'd realize thinking people all over the world are looking forward with great anticipation to President Obama's inauguration in January.

The "ignorant element" that you know so well are going to be hitting the moonshine double time in 2009. Barack Obama is respected by people who have sufficient intelligence to recognize his leadership quality. Ignorant clowns like you will choke on their own bile.

Chase it with some moonshine.

[EdwinRutsch]

more typical Failed Conservative Values of name calling, put downs, self-righteousness and the corresponding Failed Conservative Value of hypocrisy that is so well documented.

[geroldfirl]

Wow lukatmee, you must really crave attention. Unfortunately a lot of people are so desperate and lonely that they'll do stupid stuff just so somebody will look at them.

Obama has used cocaine in the past, it's true. What's strange is that he had the courage, honesty, and integrity to admit it.

No American politician has had that kind of integrity for over a hundred years.

What's weird is that the American people respect him for it. After they voted for the Bushtard, that is a surprise.

[zadonix]

LMAO at all the spineless, miserable, racist white people on youtube. How hilarious.

[subpar07]

Why these idiots support Barack Obama:

I'm Human. What does it mean to be a black american? Get along? Rich complex understanding? Where we are where we can go? Lie about past? Language that people understand? Connects with all kinds of people? Because he's a balck male he's a good role model? He can relate to people that haven't been privlidged?

THESE FUCKING IDIOTS HAVE NO CLUE. IS THIS WHAT WE BASE OUR PRESIDENCY OF OUR COUNTRY ON? THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN OUR LAND? UNBELIEVABLE

NOBAMA

[geroldfirl]

Subpar, you really are.

The American people have responded to Barack Obama because he is a great leader. And right now, we really really need a great leader in the white house. The Repugs have completely failed. Since 2000 they have utterly and completely failed at everything. The empty stupidity of the conservative political agenda has been proven, their complete inability to cope with a complex and rapidly changed world is blatantly obvious.

We need Barack Obama in 2008.

[subpar07]

Oh, I see. You want to take our country from far far right to far far left. No thanks. I'll go with McCain now that Clinton is out.

Obama will have plenty of time to ride his bike after November.

[geroldfirl]

No subby, I want to take our country from far stupid to far intelligent.

Bush and his gang of Repug dimwits were way out of their depth trying to run this country. They were successful at one thing: they heaped up huge piles of cash for themselves and their cronies - but in the process they bankrupted the country.

Barack Obama is a political genius, and if anyone can get us out of this mess, it's him.

People like you whined about the socialist FDR in 1932. Now git back to your holler.

[subpar07]

I agree with your Bush comments.

I agree that Obama is a political genious. He had to be to beat the Clinton's, and it worked brilliantly. He's a populist, and always tries to give the "popular" answer. It's pretty obvious if you watch. However I believe he'd be a horrible president, and I would never vote for him.

No matter how much the dems try to spin it, McCain is NOT Bush's third term. McCain is as liberal as it gets for republicans, and he's just slightly right of center.

[geroldfirl]

You're wrong about that, subby.

Before Obama gave a speech to an anti-war rally in Chicago, his advisors begged him not to. Said it would ruin his career. This was before the invasion, when almost every American politician and media figure were too terrified to stand up for what was right.

Obama stood up for what was right, and it didn't ruin his career.

Hillary played it "smart". McCain still loves the war.

Obama had the judgment and courage to get it right. That's leadership.

[subpar07]

Obama gave a speech? lol. What vote did he cast? Oh yeah that's right he didn't cast a vote. He didn't have the intelligence available, and he was a state senator at the time. The guy just took his training wheels off, and he thinks he can be president.

Clinton and McCain made the right choice to vote yes. It's not their fault that Bush didn't limit it just to bombing and decided to send in ground troops, and screw up the war from beginning to end.

[geroldfirl]

Subby is still pro-war. Some people never learn.

[subpar07]

Never been pro Iraq war, but am pro Afghan war. GB has failed miserably on Afghanistan. This war should have been over years ago. If run correctly, it is a war with a clear objective, and with enough resources, is a war that has an end in sight, and OBL 6 feet under.

I'm not going to blindlessly blame McCain, like the Dems are trying to do,for the disaster that resulted from the Bush administration.

Let me know if I need to explain you the difference between the two wars we're in

[geroldfirl]

Subby is right about the Afghanistan War that should have been. What you don't seem to understand, however, is that Iraq is the war that ensured we wouldn't win in Afghanistan.

Bush wants a permanent military occupation in Iraq. So does McCain. Now they're trying as hard as they can to stir up something with Iran. That is clearly insane, but McCain wants to plunge straight on after the Lemming in Chief.

Have you no grasp of geopolitical reality? Expand your vision and see what this means.

[subpar07]

You're wrong. Iraq is not the war that ensured we wouldn't win in Afghanistan. We could have easily won that war if we would have kept our eye on the ball, not given OBL a three month head start, and kept enough NATO troops to stabilize the region. GWB was 0 for 3. We will not have perm bases in Iraq, so long as there is a democratic congress. It's time for a moderate in office instead of these radical left and radical rights like Bush and Obama. I'm going with McCain, and dem down ticket

[subpar07]

Trivia question:

Who was in head of the committee that determined how many US troops would be in Afghanistan?

Answer: Barack Obama

How many meetings that he hold to discuss NATO troop levels?

Answer: 0

Obama's foreign policy would be tragic for America. He's a pacifist in a dangerous world.

[geroldfirl]

Well subby, if we hadn't invaded Iraq, then Afghanistan would have gotten the attention it deserved. Plus we would have retained the support of our allies and the international community, instead of filling the role of World Dictator. With a fraction of the resources squandered in Iraq we could have built afghanistan into a true success story, undercutting the entire jihadist premise.

Obama understands this. You will too in a year or so.

[oliverleehornbake]

OK. It has been a year now. Iran and North Korea are threatening a nuclear war, and Obama has yet to try and sit down with them, which he promised to do. A 3.4 trillion dollar budget was passed. The government owns 60% of GM. The banking industry is being nationalized. A health care bill is being written that will run private health care companies out of business. And an energy bill is on its way through that will cost EVERY American $160 a year. Your thoughts now?

[geroldf]

I think Obama is doing about as well as possible, given the circumstances. The Repugs are obstructing and delaying every step of the way, and conservative Dems aren't much better. The Repugs left the economy a toxic mess, and Obama has done an excellent job of bringing it back to life. GM slashed it's own tires, and health insurance companies slashed their own throat.

Obama has to fix the problems created by the GOPbumpkins before he can make progress in other areas.

[geroldf]

Obama has made some very effective overtures to Iran. It's true that we haven't engaged in face-to-face negotiations, but that is because the Iranian hardliners are terrified of the Obama effect on their own population. You can see what effect it's already had. Progressive Iranians are demanding change, and putting their lives on the line to get it. All Obama had to do was reach out a hand in friendship, and the Mullahs got slapped in the face. Brilliant.

[oliverleehornbake]

The republicans are simply trying to slow things down so they can get a look at everything. And I don't think dems said about Bush at ANY time, He's doing his best given the circumstances. Obama is trying to push through EVERYTHING. He is trying to change everything at once. He needs to slow down a little bit. And the Iranians leaders aren't scared of the obama effect, they are affraid that they will loose their dictatorship in their country.

[geroldf]

That's why I say the Iranian Mullahs are afraid of the Obama effect. Look what happened here: the people rose up and kicked out a corrupt incompetant government. American citizens cast away the scales of ignorance, overcame the politics of fear, and took a chance on hope. You bet the Iranian fundies are scared. We threw out the American Taliban, and it could happen to the Iranian version too. Young people in Iran say Yes We Can!

[geroldf]

Actually, oliver, lots of people said Bush was "doing his best" - he had to work really hard to get the US to invade Iraq. Do you think killing thousands of American soldiers and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis is easy? That's hard work. Destroying the world economy? That takes a lot of effort, and Bush did his best. I give him and Cheney full credit for all their efforts.

Strange that you seem to blame Obama for trying to fix all their mistakes. That's his job.

[FighterOfFoos]

if Obama is elected, this country may finally be able to be fixed and saved. All of Bushs messes will be cleaned.

[kamenofthelambdazone]

Barack Obama visited Libya with Louis Farrakahn and talked about the difference between the false, wicked jews and the "true" jews of israel.

[geroldfirl]

If Obama was white, and had a WASPy name, the entire world would have already acclaimed him as the next president and the best hope for our planet. Because he is black he has to overcome a huge barrier of suspicion and fear.

Obama is a genius, as well as a man of immense integrity and courage. Read his books if you want to see him open his heart and talk with amazing candor and eloquence about who he is, where he comes from, and what he stands for.

We need president Obama in 2008!

[coffeecrazy04]

Are you fucking kidding me? The only reason he is where he is, is because he is black. He wouldn't of made it this far if he was white. That's retarded. Anyone who is voting for him because he is black is fucking stupid. That's like killing all different colored animals and keeping only the blacks ones. Who cares if he is black or white?

[EndOfTheWHITELINE]

fuck democrats

[cowboycarl04]

i'm sorry but the ideals of republicans and democrats are thrown right out the window...

republicans are not right wing religious zions.... they believe in small government, low taxes, and taking care of your own problems...

democrats want everything provided with our taxes...

it's that simple... sadly, bush represented the extreme right horribly, and now we are swinging to the extreme left

[TranCendenZ]

cowboycarl04, I wouldn't consider Bush a part of the "extreme" right because he did NOTHING do decrease our taxes and size of government. :( Bush spends like a Dummy-crat.

[biffcaesar]

To some of these ignorants: You claim we need to do the research. Why don't you do the research? His Church does not support Radical Muslims and so what if they are proud of their African Heritage. They have that right. Finally, Obama IS NOT, I repeat, IS NOT a MUSLIM!!!!!!!! (*get that off his chest*) I hope you will actually look at the facts as well, and base your support off their stances on the issues instead of petty crap like racial and religious attacks.

[ryna1]

First off maybe you all should reseach shit about Obama..the church he goes to...you have to be black and a ratical muslim..he chose not to vote for a bill that would make it illiegal to leave babies for dead if they lived threw

[kicuville]

he is honest

[tk421missing]

You all hate the Bush's and don't like the Clintons yet between the two America has experienced the longest economic expansion in history. People have jobs and, if they were even a little careful with their money, were able to save. They could have invested in the huge bull market that occurred. BUT no you all scream and cry that things are bad. Wait until you elect Obama and he starts taxing companies. Then good bye jobs. Who will be hurt first? Poor blacks, whites and Hispanics

[TonyComix]

It seems okay for him to smoke crack but NOT okay for Bush to drink. Pretty damn funny if you ask me. I haven't seen ANY good reason to vote for him to be the leader of a COUNTRY, especially the most powerful country, if he's president and we're invaded, I sure as hell would like to see how he'd handle it.

[jrvd01]

u both suck

[EdwinRutsch]

Typical Failed Conservative Values, use a demeaning tone and approach and use simplistic put downs. It only shows how badly Conservative Values have Failed. Every time you talk like that, you only reinforce failed conservative values.

[reppinofficial]

does it fuckin matter wdf he is or what religon he has or is dat wat yall kook fr in a president

[TheDoctorGoat333]

And you can't spell either... funny how the McCain sites seem to have smarter people texting about him... DYING BREED. Not a bread. Bread is part of a sandwich. Glad you learned something today. Keep learning. Maybe your opinion will mean something to me one day.

[bubbleme1]

Black support him because he is black. This white liberal just wants to be cutting edge ( at least she thinks it makes her look "cosmo like") Obamma is Muslim swine! This Muther refuses to pledge alegiance to our nation's flag. Fuck him! Google this pic that shows him on stage. This man will not place his hand over his heart and give honor to our national flag. FUCK this half breed. He is a socialist elitest who has NOTHING in common with the minorities. He is an elitest multi millionaire.

[bcnihao]

Get a clue. Documentation at snopes dot com refutes the ridiculous assertions about Obama being a Muslim and about refusal to pledge allegiance to the flag. BTW, here on youtube you can find a video from a minister in the Christian denomination of the church that Obama attends, confirming that he's a Christian.

[TheDoctorGoat333]

Ha, I look at another video, read the text, and the first one that is riddled with mistakes is yours again. BLACKS support him... still misspelling Obama, allegiance, no use of the dash in cosmo-like, half-breed, multi-millionaire. So sad. I probably will bubble ANYONE else that can spell but you.
