There will be No Quarter…….. as this is despicable stuff. Using your people to advance your career while helping a thief because he donates for your campaigns as a payback! And taking a sweetheart piece of land…greedy.

And the poorest people imaginable living in squalid deplorable unheated South Side slums that were paid by for by the government,fed,city,state, to be rehabbed, but were screwed over and abandoned in exchange for patronage. This story has legs and it has nothing whatever to do with swiftboating. Leave that to the GOP, because they will do the Muslim and every rotten thing. But this stuff is factual. All the money wound up in Rezko’s pocket and in his company Remzar Corp.

She deserves praise for having the courage to speak her mind of stem cell research for treating persons as her husband as well.
If anything can be said of Reagan at this time it’s that his deterioration before America’s eyes does emphasize the need for improved, universal health care and enhanced research.

Trying to equivocate ceremonial function with pure campaigning, that’s another story altogether. That was a cheap call by Obama, the only people he made that call to will not vote for Democrats anyways.

Other than that, the analogy Obama was drawing was that he wants to be the “transformative” candidate for the Left, the way Reagan was for the Right. I didn’t see Obama’s comments as an endorsement of Reagan’s dismal record on civil rights, poverty, etc. Others may disagree.

Regarding Iraq, both Obama and Clinton have problems on that subject as far as I’m concerned.

At least people forgot about him saying in 2004 he’d have the same Iraq policy as Bush.

For the record, when he mentions Bill Clinton’s critical review of his words again, reporters will ask of Hillary about the exchange. Barack hasn’t even shown the sense to bury it.

She should simply remind them that Bill pointed out Barack’s expressed 2004 desire to reflect Bush policy in Iraq. She and others criticized him for pandering to Nevada conservatives in their newspaper’s op-ed praising Reagan and republican ideas of the 1990s in 2008.

Obama really hasn’t distinguished himself with response to either concern, but to confuse the two statements with who leveled the criticism is to continue being disingenuous.

Bill pointed out words of Obama in 2004, Hillary pointed out words of his in 2008.

After reply by Obama others may have invited similar response from Bill in the media, but the article I see claiming this on the first two pages of a search are by Politico(right wing crew given unfair visibility in the beltway, staffed with former republican operatives) and Malkin, attributing Bill the initial claims about Reagan.

Maybe I’m wrong, but it seems Barack replied with both of them and invited response from both. Were he to try and keep it clear who said what he would have done himself better. That’s probably the difference between lecture and instruction, something a lay person as myself wouldn’t be quite as familiar with. Maybe Northwestern has a noncredit course on the difference…

Oh, Obama voted against Kerry’s own proposal to set a one year timetable for starting withdrawal, something that would facilitate political change.

Now he’s amazingly using that as part of his own campaign strategy, aiming for sixteen months, just past a year to perhaps begin withdrawal. Somehow this is supposed to be consistent with Obama’s “against the war” position, and his funding request approvals for the war.

So if you keep talking about it, it would well appear that you leave open the room for notice that you opposed setting timetables, and could perhaps use that as a default position for plausible continuation of policy.

Plenty of starch on the collar there, Barack, because it’s been a heavy spin cycle you’re going through.

I don’t believe Larry is accusing Obama of illegal activity. Larry just wants Obama to be forthcoming about the nature of his relationship with Rezko. As Taylor Marsh says:

“Mind you, I’m not at all saying Barack Obama did anything illegal, nor is anyone else. He absolutely did not. That’s not the point at all. But he’s running on “hope” and “change,” which does not comport with his record or the people with whom he associated or helped bankroll his political beginnings.”
