		<description>On the subject of "errors", has there been any blog here or any mention anywhere other than CNN's Candy Crowley, that Obama claimed that he had visited 57 states in his campaign?

I am curious as to how someone who does not know how many states are in the US has any credibility in being president.  He made a lot of fun of people who wear flag pins.  But if he had worn one himself, he might know how many states there are by counting the number of stars on his pin.  He could look down on his chest and count them if he "forgot".  Or he could look down at his fingers, count the number on one hand and multiply by the number on both hands.

Candy Crowley claimed Obama made the mistake because he was sleep deprived.  I could go without sleep for a year and still not be able to forget the US has 50 states.  The same CNN mocked Hillary Clinton for mistakes - but of all the stupid ones, thinking the US has 57 states, all of which Obama claims he visited, has to be the dumbest.  I'm curious what he thinks he visited that are the 7 extra states.  

Perhaps he's thinking he's going to annex Canada's 10 provinces and make them 7 states.  Any one know the answer?  Or why the media doesn't think this to be a serious error.

The man can't count.  It's not surprising he doesn't want anyone else to do so in Florida and Michigan.</description>

		<description>How about it's the sum total of all the things that's wrong with Obama. He's made a lot of mindless gaffes of late:

1. 57 states
2. Great Lakes in Oregon
3. Hanford
4. Sioux City as in Iowa but he was in Sioux Falls South Dakota

Collectively, this indicates a lack of focus. They are unnecessary mental errors. For the undecided voter, this could be the ballgame. Given his present situation, he can't afford to lose anyone. You guys need to stop telling yourselves that all Obama needs is your votes.

So how about you REREAD the posts and take your head out of Obama's butt!</description>

		<description>I agree, but with Obama this is where we're headed. He's going to make Bush and his presidency seem great. We can't let this guy get elected. No, he's not Dan Quale stupid, but he's not as smart as he thinks he is or as smart as his adoring sick-o-phants think either.

What he is is 'half-ass slick!'</description>

		<description>Campaign against him.  Elected officials should do as instructed by majority vote of their State.  This "divvy up" Primary system will end up costing the most qualified person (Hillary) the election.  For Goodness sake...who's minding the store?  Why have elected officials?  Bill Clinton is right...if votes were counted the way Republicans do, Hillary would be the nominee.</description>

		<description>I don't know, we've seen this before, same old same old.

But who knows, maybe the good Lord will smile, and Obama's (and the Republican) scam will start tumbling down...

It's not healthy for the country, in the end, not healthy for anyone.

WEll, off to McDonald's for an iced coffee, I've heard they're good, and their pancakes, the best.

Window help was so grumpy the other day, some middle aged white guy with a pre bald perm and another middle aged guy, fat, telling him what to do.

Times must be hard if the Hispanics (always friendly, always polite) are getting squeezed out of jobs at McDonalds, strange to see old white guys at the window.</description>

		<description>You know, you have to speak to them in their language.

And it's your decision whether to fight back, but all some people understand is the vulgar.

Not too bright, but they're the kind of people who won't stop with a word like f**, next, they disenfranchise votes, like Obama is doing.

So it isn't enough to turn the other cheek, or not feed the trolls, quietly, in some cases, you have to use your judgement, and know when to fight.

This is such a time.

And you should never defer to DUMB people, anyway, it's unAmerican.</description>

		<description>No to mention dealing wiht terrorists, most importantly.

This morning, on ABC, they've already anointed Obama the winner, with the primary undecided yet.

They're stealing another election, and it's time to stop them.</description>

		<description>All the trolls look alike, I swear there is a archetype:"old troll," "fat troll" "really dumb troll," "troll with the mental development of a two year old" and so on.


They SUCK, don't they?

It' s like going up against the backstreet boys, or Ted's acapella band, from the TV show "Scrubs,"
all with an IQ of under 100.

Not too much here, at all.</description>

		<description>At one of the Texas caucauses, they would take voice votes, even though there were people in the audience voting who were not delegates.

I just watched this video where the Convention Chair, Ken Yarborough, admits that there were friends and relatives in the stands voting.  It is amazing!

		<description>Linda Douglas of National Public Radio (?) and POTUS 08 spends all winter covering the campaign, then quits to join the Obama efffort.

There are no ethics in journalism.  Nothing Douglas said in the past several months about the Obama-Hillary contest can be taken seriously now.  She's been in the tank for Obama all along; the only difference is, now she's being paid for it.

Tony Snow becoming Press Secretary to Bush was somewhat different, because Snow was a conservative radio yakker before going on to Faux News, and everyone knew his bias.  George Stephanopolous taking over ABC's "This Week" was a bad idea and damaged the credibility of journalism.

I know it's a free country, but that means we are free to dismiss "journalists" who pretend to dispassionately cover political news and then jump to campaigns when money is waved in front of their faces.  The media is as corrupt and partisan now as it was in the 19th century, when practically every newspaper was wholly owned and operated by a political party.  The difference is, newspapers back then didn't claim to be nonpartisan.  I think I would have prefered to openness and honesty of the partisanship of those days.</description>

The difference is, newspapers back then didn&#8217;t claim to be nonpartisan.  I think I would have prefered to openness and honesty of the partisanship of those days.</p>

		<description>There's a reason why we have a secret ballot in this country and have for over 100 years.  Bullying, peer pressure, and just plain intimidation are fine for banana republics and faux-Democracies in South America and the former Communist bloc.  They have no place in a real Representative Democracy like the United States is supposed to be.

Caucuses are discriminatory and totally un-American.  Every time the DNC asks me for money, I reply that I will not donate another dime this year unless the Michigan and Florida delegations are seated AS ELECTED and BEFORE THE NOMINEE IS CHOSEN and I will not donate a dime after 2008 until the caucus system is banned.</description>

		<description>If it was February instead of May, and if Obama was ahead in the popular vote instead of Hillary, and if the Superdelegates were going for Hillary instead of Obama, the Obamabots would agree with you.

Because they said as much three months ago.  It was ALL about the Popular Vote back then.  It was all about counting every vote. It was ALL about Superdelegates respecting the preference of their home state voters back then.  And if they didn't, they were Evil and Undemocratic and Donna Brazile was going to resign in disgust.

But that thinking is so February.  Now it's "the popular vote doesn't matter" and "the Superdelegates must endorse the person who has the most pledged delegates."  Count every vote?  Michigan and Florida broke "the rules" and they can go fuck themselves.

The Obamabot Principles, boiled down to one sentence: "Whatever It Takes."</description>

		<description>Re. the MSM giving Sen. Obama a free pass.

I think people are (perhaps subconsciously) much more dubious about the MSM than they have ever been in recent times.  And well they should be.  The MSM has not protected the mainstream newspaper-reading, tv-news-show watching populace from adjustable rate mortages, atrociously high gas prices, no federal $$ left to help people in emergencies, etc. etc.

Instead, the news crews sit chirpily at their desks, oh the stock market is down again folks (the near retirees *love* hearing that), gas is a record high, etc.

The only life and energy the MSM demonstrates is bashing a good woman like HRC, a woman who would do right by this country.

Hey, the adult mainstream populace (the ones who do not have Clinton Derangement Syndrome) don't forget the $urplus that WJC left behind, money for everyone, until the GOP got their hands on it.</description>
