Such concern over Obama's "questionable past" but none for Palin/McSluts known transgressions.

McCain- Mr. Keating 5, walked out on injured wife, opposed MLK holiday, referred to an African American as a tar-baby, referred to Democratic Presedential Candidate as "that one" on National TV.

Palin- Ms. Complete Idiot, supporter of sussionist movement, violated state ethics laws, refuses to answer questions in public (she can't even participate in the spinning of the debates for McSlut because she's so stupid), incites hateful rallies.

The above are just a few for each but they are all FACTS. I know you folks are going to roll out every rumor fox news spreads about Obama that you wingnuts believe without question but try and dissect fact from fiction and see what you end up with. I'll tell you, a bunch of nothing.

I don't understand the polls in Florida...Everywhere I go and the people I speak with are so against Obama!!! I guess over the phone people are scared to say what they dare to say to their friends on the sports fields, and one thing I know for sure, nobody asked them to say that they should vote for McCain...they do it because they don't trust Obama, and don't like his "hope and change"!!!

Senator Obama's tax plan will certainly cause me to work less, and have to lay off employees. Fact. Why would I work the same amount and pay 50%ish in taxes? I will just work less, which will require layoffs...

Obamaism...

You'll notice the right wing posters' attention to a subject waxes and wanes with how high up on the list of TV/RW radio talking points the subject is. If Fox is laying off ACORN it's because of McCain's and many other Republican politicians' ties to them, which would force them to acknowledge the facts about ACORN (or as near as they're constitutionally able to get to the truth).
Oooh, someone just sent me a rep saying 'BS AND LIE" for this post. They didnt sign it

You may be right, anonymous repper - Fox isnt likely to ever acknowledge those facts.

He also shared that he is more frightened for our country than he was at the time he was on the battlefield in France. For me, that was chilling.
I'm sure your Dad is a wonderful man and a patriot. Since we live in America, he is entitled to his opinion and to vote for the candidate of his choice. I mentioned on another thread that last weekend I met a man who was at Pearl Harbor. I was ready to walk away, thinking he would lecture me about why McCain is the better choice. Instead he told me he & his wife are voting for Obama because he makes more sense. He also gave me an earful about McCain's record on cutting benefits for disabled veterans. That was a nice surprise for me, since I was canvassing for Obama and expected people to throw tomatoes at me. Instead I met a WWII vet who feels the freedoms he fought for are being taken away by the Republicans and felt John McCain was very similar to George Bush in his policies.

Whining? He made one little comment about Fox News and that was it.

Default the 3 or 4 points comment in OP post

OP is refering to an interview Obama did with a New York magazine.
(I'm not sure which and not sure if it is 'the' "New Yorker").
I believe it comes out in the next issue.

Talking Obama can't handle Fox news anymore....

Of course!

That explains why he was on O'Reilly's show a couple of weeks ago!

I hope you'll let us all know when the Obama economy takes your job from you, APJ. I suspect it will be sooner than later. Maybe if you listened to what Limbaugh says you'd learn something.
