Nothing has changed, in fact it seems even more exaggerated than before. Don't you understand that this type of non-sense is why you lost the election in the first place? Did you not learn anything?

What's stopping the GOP from getting aboard? Why must they continue on with this lunacy we see before us?
C'mon, the man and the ethically-challenged Congress want to put a tax cheat in as the head of the Treasury Department.

The guy didn't even cheat on his taxes, he made a mistake and paid for it. And that has absolutely nothing to do with being secretary of the treasury. Its like saying Bill Clinton was a bad prez because he lied about a bj, they don't connect whatsoever. Its just Fox News trying to put a negative spin on something. I don't care if my president beats his wife and snorts coke all day long, as long he is a great president.

Why are you defending someone who cheated his way into office? The fact that you'd cover for someone who used vote fraud, got $600 million in campaign contributions that nobody knows where most of it came from and is using 3 law firms to hide a $10 birth certificate speaks volumes about you. And ... covers for Bill Ayers and Odinga and Obama's association with crook Tony Rezko.. (By the way look up weathermen underground for your answer about the 25 million.)

You should at least admit this about President Bush: he didn't need a teleprompter to recite the oath of office.

I don't have to look up anything Seek because I am not an ignorant sheep who sits in front of Fox News all day. Bill Ayers was not the entire weathermen underground operation, he openly spoke against any harm to any person. And really, you have yet to post any source saying Obama is anything but %100 American. Its not like the Dems couldn't find anyone else to run for prez so they picked a foreigner, but you can keep saying that stuff because it just makes you look foolish which in turn shows everyone here how I am right and have already won this argument. Show me some proof that Obama's campaign contributions came from anyone that he shouldn't be dealing with. Yeah you can't.

And Zman Obama obviously had that speech memorized because as he was being sworn in, he would pause for the man every time he made a mistake because Obama knew the pledge better than he did.

In fact, the only thing that Ayers did to be construed as terroristic was plant a bomb in a building, and he made sure nobody was in the building to get hurt. He could have killed plenty of his opposition that day, but unlike George W, people's lives actually mean something to him. Really, you can keep making up lies all you want, it seems to be the republican way. But Obama is YOUR president, and you can't do anything about it.
The quickest way to turn public opinion against your cause is to kill some poor security guard just doing his job.
I'll give Ayres that he is pragmatic. If he thought it would help his cause, he would most assuredly have killed people.

Don't count on it. FOX News is in business to make money. Though their ad rates never approached those of CNN, they were able to find a profitable niche of under-served viewers. As that niche turns into a dry gulch, you can count on the higher ups at FOX to go off in search of a new one, even if that means leaving what's left of right-wing America to fend for itself...

Ah yes TomDot, you're a friend of his and can accurately say he would kill a man right? really what proof or even rumor have you heard that would make Ayers seem like a guy that would kill someone? Thats like saying if Bush thought killing all of the first born children in America would bring democracy to Iraq he would have. Its baseless and really just words you made up.

Hah, Fox News worships Obama too! Just like you!

I bow before no man.

Maybe you should look into Obama's campaiging for Raila Odinga. Why would Obama campaign for an Islamic communist? Odinga lost the Kenyan election then Odinga and his party went on a murdering rampage demanding he be a co-president. Thousands of Kenyans died because of Odinga. You can find pictures of Obama standing side by side of Odinga on an airplane stairway.

Because we think "getting on board" will only make the ship sink faster? We don't want to be part of Obama screwing things up worse than they are now.
