Obama funnels money from government to his campaign supporters. Is this the change you want?

Quote from the article:

"As Mr. Obama campaigns for president as an agent of change who promises to clean up Washington's money game, his role in the Stateway project raises questions about the appearance of a conflict of interest and whether he has been participating in the very system he criticizes, watchdogs say. "

Washington Times - Obama sought HUD grant for donor's project


I wonder how the Libs would respond if this was not the Lord Obama?

Typical of Obama. His hands are dirty with corrupt political games.

Yes, but he promises change. Rather than money being funneled to Clinton's friends, he will funnel it to his friends. That's change man.

C'mon. Admit you're a Republican and not for the Constitution Party.

Lord Obama. I don't care what he does. He promised me money, free healthcare, and reduced taxes and I want them now.

It's not a "conflict of interest."

It's an "overlap of progressive ideals providing enrichment to a disadvantaged community."

See how much better it sounds when you wrap it up in pretty words?

I am sorry if you can't face the fact that a moderate does not like Obama. I almost was going to vote his way, but I came out of the propaganda fog just in time.

I can face the fact that a moderate does not like Obama. However, I do not understand how you can constantly start thread after thread dogging him out. But that's your choice.
