Edwards' 527 Response to Obama

http://www.iowaindependent.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=1709

Barack Obama criticized John Edwards regarding so-called "527" groups and their soft money influence on the campaign.

From Obama:

"John, yesterday, said he didn't believe in 527s. Those are these independent groups that raise money without disclosure ... We found out today that there's an outside group that's funding $750,000, just bought three quarters of a million dollars worth of television time, and the individual running the group used to be John Edwards' campaign manager."

This video is John Edwards' first response to the questions from Obama on the 527s.

Neither will a racist idiot living in a trailer.

it's my hope that people as ignorant as you do not get out and vote in any election. i doubt you have the drive or intelligence to vote, but it's a scary thought, the possibilty that you might.

karl rove is a pig.

He said he hasn't receive any money from lobbyist, wich i don't believe, but in case of such thing being truth, it's because he hasn't been put in a higher position in the White House yet, but we all know what could have happen having him get to the White House! Now, i still like him, but i like Obama more!

John Edwards needs to be our attorney general beginning 2008. He is awesome!

Our Government. Do your homework. It's not notax it's FAIRTAX. Read the book.

I seriously like him. If I would ever vote, it would be only for him. And I truly don't like any of others. Is it still time to vote? ;-D

Edwards is the only one talking about our 200,000 homeless vets and trying to help them.

The Neocons are mostly Jews. They're tactics are fascistic and Goebbels is their hero but they use these tactics against the muslims rather than against the Jews. The Neocons are traitors to this country in using its human and financial resources toward Israel's ends. And no they don't fight these wars themselves. There I just completely destroyed your argument with my "extreme lack of intelligence."

The media is owned, by and large, by Wall Street and Republican families like the Quayles and Rupert Murdoch. How can they be liberal when they pass along every Republican attack on common sense, the Democrats, and the average Joe verbatim? If the Republican-owned media was liberal, why would they say "We're all liberals, don't listen to us?" Simple, they're not.

[Baritone45]

Zile, it's the Republicans that have dumbed down America. Fighting education, promoting dumb blow-em up movies, and controlling the media have produced specimens of your intelligence level.

[Baritone45]

bs, so you're willing to not use roads nor any technology developed by the government, like say the space program? No tap water for you? No police protection, fire, defense? Where the heck do you think these things come from?
