Sheesh! Everytime we turn around, more news comes out.

I can't wait to see what the Republicans have been hiding for the fall....

So you would allow your two little girls (under the age of 10) watch films where people get murdered, tortured, abused and more?

YES! You should be disqualified as a parent! I think a LOT of people would have a problem with this!

And yes, this is the same as Obama taking his little girls to this racist church!

Was you in the church when Obama was there? Did you hear what was being said when he was there? And YES people do allow their 10 year old kids to see such horrific tv and horrific sites on the pc. Too many parents allow their children to use the comp without supervision. Don't be so naive as to think this doesn't happen. Just blast Obama for going to a church that had a disgusting leader. NO ONE who has been condemning Obama was there with him, xso it is just pure speculation as to what he heard. If you have proof that he sat there with his children when hate sermons were being spoken, please produce it.

Hillary's perspective
I'm whiiiite
I'm Bill's wife
This nomination is mine
There's a black man stealing my show
Ehhhhhh, Ehhhhhhhhhhhh

Obama's perspective
I'm blaaack
I'm Michelle's husband.....(Who...., Michelle)??? I'm sorry who?
This nomination is mine
There's a white woman stealing my show
Ehhhhh, Ehhhhhhhhh

Now which joke would you rather tell to your audience? Again, it all comes back to the same thing....it was nothing but something with a comic sense that some bitter white folks are trying to turn into a "race" thing.
I personally would not tell either, but that is the difference between you and I. Also I guess it depends if the racist audience is black or white? Is one comment racist and one is racist and sexist or are they both or none.

I feel the same way about MSNBC and their various bias hosts. I assume the majority of their audience leans democrat or liberal, not necessarily socialist or communist but not exactly conservative morally/fiscally speaking.

Geez where does that leave us free thinking moderates.

Healthy food is not expensive and junk food is for the lazy people that don't care about what they eat or are just plain stupid. I love the way people make excuses for other people and their stupidity. Sounds like typical liberal thinking, blame someone other that the person responsible.

Bittergate - over 80% of fox news viewers said it would hurt

Ayers - over 80% said it would hurt him
Now this???

Yeah, according to Fox News, this guy has been hurt so much....hurt so much that he will not win the nomination!

Sometimes i just wonder - what kind of people watch Fox News???

I agree it is just another harmless pork project to return a favor to a campaign contributor.

Obama is for change in Washington DC. I guess he had better change himself before he cries for change.

We ALL listen and see things that instill hatred, fear etc but we don't "leave" either. Does that make us ALL hypocrites. YES! and please don't say we aren't running for President. We all affect many people everyday, our kids, family etc. Should we all be disqualified from being parents because we watch and see hate and violence, without turning it off? Let's get real and realise that we make our own minds up to what we believe, not by what we are submerged in but what we truly believe.
Nice try, but really poor analogy.

We watch movies as entertainment. A church is the place where you go to feed your SOUL! Did Obama feed his SOUL with hatred???? Sure seems like it. It slips out frequently too.....like when he said "typical white person".

You mean inconsistent with letting the public know about what he has been hearing for years.
This story is getting bigger.
