How Obama Treats Labor [Monday Update]
By SusanUnPC on August 10, 2008 at 10:00 PM in Barack Obama, Current Affairs, Labor, Unemployment, Unions, Workers
This is from “LaborPains.org.” Mon AM Update: I am told by a reliable source that the AFL-CIO fully expected Obama to appear in person. The AFL-CIO has never been treated this way, ever, by a presidential candidate. Now back to the original blog post:
The title tells the story:
Then blogger J. Justin Wilson reveals the depressing details:
I just got off the AFL-CIO’s kick-off conference call with Obama. What a tragedy of errors.
First of all, Sen. Obama was about 40 minutes late to the show. You can image how fantastic 40 minutes of Muzak went over. Finally, John Sweeney introduced Obama.
Next …
After rattling off nearly the exact same speech he delivered a few months ago to the AFL-CIO (see above [video]), Obama proceeded to hang up. Click. Just like that.
Someone at the AFL-CIO muttered something like “is that it?” and then we went back to hold music.
A lady came back on and made an excuse, saying Obama’s line was cut off and that he would come back on the call. Minutes pass, and then she came back on and said that Obama had left the building. …
Go to “Stood Up and Hung Up” to view a video and to listen to the actual phone call.
Oh well. I completely understand.
It is such an annoyance to have to talk to those “typical” little people.

P.S. Originally I described the blog as “pro-labor.” That is not entirely true. However, the facts of the event — backed up with an AUDIO — remain true.

Typical B.S. from Barry.
What a sick joke the DNC has forced upon the American people.
Give us Hillary or prepare for DEFEAT, you stupid F**ks!!!!
I wish it was only a sick joke.
this bunch is trying to undermine the country.
Somewhere in the New democratic party there has to be a few with loyalty to what this country stands for.
But so far they are hiding.

Newsweek (Obamedia) finally admits Oblahma needs the Clintons.
http://www.newsweek.com/id/151723
Yeah but they even got that one wrong, really. What Oblahblah needs are HRC supporters. And even if that were to cross his egocentric mind, it would be too little, too late.
Now you know. It’s you. You’re a whiner and you’re to blame. The disease in the economy is not in your wallet, your pension, your job, your mortgage — it’s in your head. Phil Gramm says so and he should know.
He’s tried to help you with the free market and in these boom times you give him skepticism. Gramm is the economic wizard to the self-professed economically-challenged Republican candidate. Gramm was the most instrumental senator in the Republican de-regulation spasm under Reagan and Bush. That gave us a financial sector free of almost any restraint — followed by frauds, bank failures and bailouts (and you whine at having to pay billions when the wheels fall off the free market). This gave us a deregulated energy sector leading directly to the Enron crimes, speculative excesses, and the ruination of countless thousands of Americans now suffering in their heads — and at the pump.
Yes, Gramm tried to help you, turning loose the economic barracuda to save us with the free market. And here we are free at last — free of jobs (they wave any flag guaranteeing near slave labor), free of gas (stagnant wages won’t pay for it), free of a sound currency, free of principled conduct in finance and government, free of almost everything except foreclosure, war, debt and inflation. So it’s good to know it’s just in our heads.
Republicans should have been too ashamed to even run a candidate this year, but they have and it’s economic illiterate John McCain, advised by economic vandal Phil Gramm. If your head clears, vote against them because if they stand for capitalism it’s time to find something — anything — else.

This is off-topic, but I know people will get a kick out of it.
Larry Johnson’s piece from last night has them atwitter over at Daily Kook, AKA The Site That Will Kick You Off If You Make A Truthful Diary About John Edwards:
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/8/10/212240/798
One of the people there, a front-pager by the name of Meteor Blades, is creating all kinds of scenarios with Larry that involve intrigue and espionage. Here’s a choice quote. The “He” in question is Larry Johnson:
“How do you know he’s crazy. How do you ……know his agenda doesn’t require him to appear crazy? It’s a house of mirrors.”
If you want some good laughs and to see Bots in Panic, check it out. I’m only about a third of the way through the comments but wanted to give others the chance to laugh with me.
Ha ha ha.
Nice work on the Batchelor show, Larry. And Susan, you were right — John Batchelor is excellent. I will be looking for that show more often in the future after listening to LJ’s segment and the one after his.
Wow, what a bunch of angry and flailing jerks. All they can do is hurl insults and snark. They repeatedly indicate that they have disdain for Larry, they toss personal insults at him, but they never back up their arguments against his assertions with any of those pesky facts.
“You’re an ugly asshole, so there!” is not a rebuttal. At least not in the adult world…
Can’t expect adult behavior from playground bullies. Obama’s disciples and most of our elected officials all need detention or at least a long Time Out. January 21, 2009 sounds about right.
I barely recognize anyone there any more. Definitely paranoid and many moveon members I think as the talk is more anarchist than democratic now.
Returning the voyeuristic salvo, the comments were unhinged, but the author of the diary takes the crazy cake…
Never trust such folks. The CIA thrives … (12+ / 0-)

…on creating disinformation. They mix truths, half-truths, quarter-truths, lies, fabrications, concoctions, exaggerations, speculations all into the same pot, then feed it to us as stew. No way can you extract what is real and what is not, and trying to do so can take you into some dark places. Exactly what they want to do: create confusion.

To quote RD “Can We Have Hillary Back Now?”
Obama doesn’t give a damn about anyone but himself.
Great article on Obama and Black Liberation Theology —
http://www.acton.org:80/commentary/443_marxist_roots_of_black_liberation_theology.php?gclid=CIKU77a33ZMCFQpjnAodrRa4Zw
Typical BS from Kerry….and once more THEY introduce RACE into this.
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12433.html
…? How many more people can he piss off and STILL think he can win?
You’d be surprised! (or maybe not!?)
The audacity of his ego knows no bounds!
He thinks that he will win because the alternative is voting for McCain, and nobody would do that. He is in for a rather rude surprise inNovember (if he lasts that long).
Exactly so. His arrogance is beyond the pale.
This is exactly the same attitude that Phil Griffin, Pres. of MSNBC had when we were complaining about the disgusting migogyny of Keith Olbermann — he said in so many words:
Judging by MSNBC’srappy ratings, they must be getting a good answer to that question.
I think Obama will receive a similar answer in November.
Obama already won the gold medal for arrogance, all others vie for a silver.
Obama and Olbermann are two big zeros.
He thinks he can win, like Bush thought he could win; because he’s being told he has won.
An arrogant Bush was so thoroughly annoyed that he didn’t win that he and his group took it all the way to the Supreme Court to prevent a Florida recount.
IF Obama doesn’t win, see how fast the cry of discrimination fills the air and watch those torts (probably citing the 1965 Civil Rights Act) sail to the Supreme Court once again.
And don’t forget that old blackmail threat of violence if he doesn’t “win”. So many of our politicians are so afraid of rioting by the Obama loyal that they “fear our freedoms” more than losing our freedom.
Let them riot. If this is how they think they can win friends and influence people, let them have at it.
This whole primary has been a riot in one way or another. Let them ‘crash the gates’ and see how far they’ll get. Sometimes it takes a riot of some kind to wake people up no matter what the riot is for.
Agreed. The art of persuasion does not include threats of violence. The sooner they learn that, the better.
Yeah. Let them riot. It won’t last long. Maybe a week or so. I won’t buckle for a threat of a riot when my country is at stake. I’m fighting for my freedom & my most fundamental right of all, my own vote, right here at home!!
ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE!!!!
YEA!!!
And a fitting punishment for the instigators would be to clean up the mess as part of a chain gang. And as an added bonus, the taxpayers could provide them pink uniforms that they could keep once they finished the job.
The only people left in “Obama’s base” are gangster rappers, black prison inmates and black liberation theologists who like to riot and loot. The people in society most likely to cause violence and harm to others are his base, that’s why people are afraid, as well they should be.
The actual number is very small, the probablility of damage, injury and even death is very high. We’re going to need the National Guard called out in major cities in case the Obama numbers upset his “base”.
Any self-respecting black or white person is firmly against Obama. The only ones still supporting him are those listed above along with the very young and very foolish. He has zero chance of winning in the general election. His handlers know this, and they’re looking for an exit strategy.
Mark my words, Grandma is going to play a large part in the exit strategy (or whoever plays grandma on TV). I’m seriously hoping he wouldn’t sacrifice the life of his own grandmother, but there is no doubt in my mind that he would have the “death” faked as a reason to withdraw from the race.
Watch the media closely, they’re about to pull a fast one on us again.
Oh I agree, he feels he doesn’t even need to campaign because no one will vote for McCain as the alternative. I trust McCain a hell of a lot more than Obama.
McCain made a boo-boo by airing an Olympic ad that bashed Obama – rather than an ad promoting McCain.
Sometimes I think the Repubs WANT Obama to win….it would certainly do wonders for the Repub Party damaged by Bush.
Did anyone see Deborah Bartoshevich on Hannity last night? she is the Clinton delegate thrown out because she said she will vote for McCain. She was fantastic! She and many others trust McCain enough to vote for him and they had better believe it!
I guess just another set of voters he does not need.
NObama ‘08
Bravo. Just what his campaign needs. Upset and disrespect the AFL-CIO. Go Obama man. You are the One.
BO, “Can’t I just eat my waffle?”
He should eat something… and I’m not talking food.
Fox news had a clip of him ordering “a stack of pancakes to go” and speculated he wouldn’t eat them and they would end up in the trash on his bus… or maybe under his bus. They are already FLAT, there’s room under the bus for pancakes.
but seriously, as for unions, Houston we have a problem.
I am an AFSCME member, and our jaws are still open in shock over the way he treated our candidate, Hillary.
Getting behind him is something the bosses urge, but the rank and file aren’t buying it. We saw him in action all across the country and we’re not pleased. Our union is spending pac money on him through Moveon, and it is advertised as such, but he pretends he isn’t tainted with our pac money. If there was a way to stop them from taking my pac donations from my paychecks I would do it. Part of my paycheck goes to his advertising, and then he denies it. Sickening.
The teamster bosses cut a deal with him to stop oversight, which infuriated the rank and file since that opens the door to them being screwed.
SEIU had problems with their members even before they endorsed him. Since then their union bosses have shown themselves to be aligned with ob. Thugs are supporting the presumed thug in cheif. The rank and file are well aware of their bosses and there have been top news stories of corruption at the top.
Ob is NOT pro-rank and file, although he is all for the cash and power a union endorsement brings.
Let the union workers eat pancakes, skinny ol ob says.
To stop having money deducted from your paycheck to fund non administrative activities by the Union (i.e. PACs or other political programs) you may request becoming a “core” member of the Union. Under that category, you would only have to pay that portion of your dues that supports the Union’s administration costs. Speak with your union about how to go about becoming a “core” member or call your local NLRB (National Labor Relations Board) office for further information on your rights.
If he acts this way now…how will he be if he (God forbid) becomes POTUS?
He doesn’t have a chance in hell to become POTUS.
I hope you’re right. Because it’s giving me nightmares just thinking he could be POTUS.
amen …
I think the best place for him to rule is Hell — he may be able to give the Devil a run for his money.
Wait till he’s president.
You’re joking right? PLEASE…. don’t make me laugh. Never mind too late …
I’m not waiting for anything, I’m trying to defeat the jerk. I have no interest in Obandit changing the US into Zimbabwe II.
way to go obamblah
So, let me guess. He doesn’t need the AFL-CIO either???
Hahahaha. This Democratic loss will be of mega-proportions!
I’ll tell you what — the AFL-CIO has a long reach.
You do not mess with that union in this country. If they get the idea you pissed on them, they will piss back — and it won’t be pretty.
Couldn’t think of anyone more deserving.
Disrespecting any voting block is amatuer hour. But the AFL-CIO? That goes beyond audacity or arrogance. You’re in crazyland now.
I think Obama must be reading and believing all this “I’m the One” nonsense. The razzle-dazzle is getting very lame.
Life is certainly stranger than fiction!
Obama has made a campaign strategy that consists entirely of disrespecting voters. (How he expects to win with that … don’t ask me. I don’t know either.)
Maybe his strategy is showing tough love?
peggy sue –Obama said if the workers want to join a union then they should be able to join a union. Its that simple. How little he understands about unions or workers and how little he cares.
He sure is The One..The One who has divided the party, the races, and the nation.
Moses divided the Red Sea and Obama is trying to out do him.
Please don’t forget to visit http://www.pumalatinos.com which is a site that will divert PUMA Latinos toward activism against the Obama Nation.
Despicable… BO couldn’t care less about ANY of the Dems. issues. At all. So, why is the base supporting him? What is the AFL-CIO planning to do about this?
I want to see the outrage in action: do NOT nominate BO.
Cult followers are always the last to see the light and usually never do — Jim Jones, Charles Manson, Heavens Gate, etc. and Obama Zombies, there is no reasoning with them.
I’ll add the christian coalition was pretty cultish back in the day- where did they go I wonder?? I’m thinking they went to dkos.
You know, as a republican progressive. I heard that at the evil orange several times. (People forget that comments aren’t emails some times LOL)
They got old, some died off, others went senile, some actually moved on, most retired and live in florida, that’s how bush won it.
andy — unfortunately you won’t see any outrage until he loses then there will be a circular firing squad and outrage will rule. Right now the constituancies can’t believe that he is this bad. So everyone is holding their fire.
He doesn’t need women, he doesn’t need unions, he doesn’t need voters, just the people who can fix the votes for him.
And their checks.
I’m getting at least a letter a week from Obama requesting my checks.
Send them a monopoly $500 bill with PUMA written on it. Not my idea, but when I did it, it left me chuckling to myself for a few hours.
send BOBO’s campaign one of these
http://www.mariafalauto.com/CheckMark.jpg
I just tape two pennys to the slip and mail it back, postage paid. That’s about all he’s worth…and that’s counting for inflation!
I send coupons for Pull Ups diapers and tampons. I didn’t want to waste perfectly good monopoly money.
Don’t forget the baby bottle, rattle, and pacifier.
You do realize that the heavier the package you send, the more they pay in postage? Some ideas include bricks, lead washers in the envelope, junk appliances, anything that weighs a lot and has little or no value is ideal for the job.
You end up costing them money instead of providing them with money because they pay the postage.
Next letter you get, pick up whatever you want that weighs as much as possible, tape the postage paid envelope to it and drop it at the post office. I’m sure BO will appreciate your contribution and they’ll cut you off the mailing list asap! (then you go to the site and sign back up LMAO).
If enough of us do this, it should bail out the United States Postal Service to the point they won’t have to raise the price of stamps again for another year.
This concept is FULL of advantages!
Just be cautious and write on the envelope – NON-MACHINABLE – HAND SORT. Because in the Post Office, those items will break automated machinery raisin OUR postal costs.
I sent him a check but didn’t sign it — if he trys to forge it I’ll have him arrested and his campaign is done.
Put a brick in a box and tape the return envelope to it. The USPS will pick it up and charge the Messiah’s campaign the appropriate postal fee, thereby further depleting its funds.
I love it!
Don’t forget to write NObama in big bold letters on the front and back too…might as well “talk” to those postal employees while we’re making BO and Friends pay for postage for empty envelopes! I do it to every request for money from anything remotely Democrat right now.
Too cool. All those pesky little annoyances will make them apoplectic.
Be careful..a disproportionate number of Postal associates are AA. Thanks to the equal opportunity provided by the same ‘folks’ BHO and MO complain helped them receive their Ivy League educations. The BO campaign will not be charged for return postage….
94% of AA are voting as a block for BHO..it is unfortunate the vote is color based and not based on the issues that actually affect all of us. I am tired of the focus of our funds in healthcare going to emergency rooms paying for people who shoot or stab themselves in gang violence. I am tired of paying for young women to have more and more illegitimate babies for a larger stipend from welfare so they can continue to buy drugs. I am tired of paying for education issues caused because our classrooms are overcrowded with hundreds and hundreds of children with no fathers. How do they eat? We pay for their education and their meals. Why?..ask Barak Obama. He refused to help the Jenna 6. He’ll tell you-he abandoned all those AA’s the minute he could and they very stupidly follow him like he actually cares…sad.
I got on the other day. Wrote my own response to all the points the letter was trying to make. Tore the donation card up and put the pieces with the letter back into the postage paid envelope. Makes me feel so good.
Also, got a fundraising call from the DLCC today. When I told them I was now an Independent and had made the change back when the DNC made a debacle of the FL and MI situation…the gal said, “Well, that wasn’t our fault…you know that don’t you?” I tried to say something, but she said, “They broke the rules…”
Talk about P.O.’d My blood pressure shot out the roof and I told her, “Well, you just pissed me off worse. Good bye!”
Sounded to me as though this wasn’t the first time she’d heard this response.
I deal with all political parties in my profession. The rudest comments are now coming from those associated with (and working for) the Democratic Party. As a lifelong Democratic, I've noticed over the years an increased disregard by the Democratic Party workers and leadership of its constituents.In business, one knows customer are important. Being rude and non-responsive to clients will put you out of business.
The Democratic Party has forgotten that there is still competition in this country, even for political parties.
I was taught when we had to go to customer relations classes was
” the customer may not always be right but is allowed to be wrong and treated with dignity
COUNTRY BEFORE PARTY ALWAYS
PUMAS,BUBBAS, AND THOSE PEOPLE RULE
cpplummer — I think woman at the DLCC was right when she said that it wasn’t their fault. Obama has refused to even meet with the DLC Democrats and they are as angry as the rest of us.
You can still help downticket democrats – just do it directly. I will be donating to the local democrats in my area that I like directly – such as Ed O’Reilly (challenging Kerry) – that way I know exactly who’s getting my $$.
I truly don’t know if I even want to help down-ticket democrats. It seems to me this election cycle should be about sending a message that even the most obtuse elected official can understand: we put you in office and we can send you packing just as easily.
If the zombies vote Obandit in then he will no longer be requesting a check from you every week, he will be taking it out of your paycheck every week.
Obandit? ROFL. I didn’t expect Johnny Quest to show up.
ROFL.. And his buddy “Race Baiter”.
would he be a “new” race-baiter or a “master” race-baiter or just a Master-baiter?
I like to send this boycott the dnc check – I have sent 4 so far (in their postage paid envelope of course). I am happy to do my part to annoy Obama supporters, and I always feel happier afterwards – you know, if you’re “feeling a little down” or something, it’s a great, no cost (except to Obama) cure.
http://www.dncboycott.com/
Be sure to send the reply envelope back WITHOUT POSTAGE and with your thoughts enclosed. I wish I had some Monopoly money to send, that is funny. That way the DEMS have a better idea of what REAL DEMS are thinking.
remember, the maximum donation from an individual is $2300, so you’ll need to send 4 $500s and 3 $100s of the monopoly money.
Of course, if you want it to weigh more, send as many small denominations as possible!!
I like the miniature money you get at wal-mart or the dollar store too. It looks like actual money but much smaller (or larger) and with markings to ensure that it’s “play money”. But you could probably fool of few of them….
If you have a color printer, print out a bunch of the $3 obamabills in green and send those.
Don’t use xerox images of actual money, it could be considered counterfitting and get you in trouble if you have a return address on the envelope. (was my idea, but my very intelligent wife stopped me with the realization…what would I do without that woman? …oh yeah, I’d marry Uppity!!! LOL)
wow, I misspelled more words in that post than I can even count LOL
oh, and just “chiten” with ya Uppity
Sadly you are probably right. Everyone keeps saying they can’t believe so many support oloser and they can’t believe the poles. Well I really do not believe the American people will vote this guy into office. If he wins I think it is a total FIX. There is no way. This country just isn’t there. Not yet! And not for some time still. Way to much stuff on him. And even though our lovely media refuses to report fair and unbiased news people are getting the messages about who this character really is.
God Bless America. Land that I love….
and write checks
COUNTRY BEFORE PARTY ALWAYS
PUMAS,BUBBAS, AND THOSE PEOPLE RULE
will I have to add afl-cio to my signoff?
They call that a dictator when you don’t need the People’s vote and “win” without it.
haven’t we had one of those for the past 7 years?
That’s about how I’d treat them, but they aren’t exactly on the same side of the aisle with me. For Obama that’s just dumb. Still, I get a little bit of satisfaction from it.
Imagine if presidential elections were voted the way the union wants to vote on organization. Isn’t that the exact issue with the ridiculous caucuses this year? Intimidation, groupthink, and no privacy– thanks unions!
That is the organizational law unions have to deal with at this time—brought to them by the Republican giant union buster, Reagan. Unions want that organizational law changed—Hillary is a big supporter of that change—to a secret ballot.
Kiss off, RNC scab.
You arrogant jerk. The reason that the anti-union companies want a “secret ballot” is so they can fucking STUFF the ballot boxes. When the counts come in showing MORE votes than eligible employees, there’s no way to prove any fraud. (Fraud can only be implied or suggested, but not proved in a “secret ballot”.)
By requiring workers to make a visible stand, the union can actually lessen incidents of fraud. The other problem that companies face is that when a worker shows that he’s willing to take a PUBLIC stand, the company cannot fire him if the unionization fails.
Anyone who honestly believes that management is somehow looking out for the workers’ best interests in demanding a “secret ballot” needs to get in touch with me. I’ll have some unpleasant news for them about the tooth fairy, the Easter Bunny, and Santa Claus.
Hey Joze, I’ve been a union member for most of my adult life and worked for the union. It may not be legal to fire people for organizing a union, but I have seen it happen time and time again, and taking months and months to correct the injustice, if it is ever corrected. Reagan was the biggest union buster and labor and people who deserve to earn a living wage, are the worst for his actions. Reagan started the ball rolling with deregulation and exporting jobs, and it’s continuing. We need Hillary.
Amen, we NEED Hillary.
The unions supporting obama might have happy bosses with their pay offs and back room deals but the rank and file of many unions are worried stiff.
No wonder ob praised old Ronnie. He will break us.
When he screws up UHC our medical plan costs will continue to increase to the point it won’t pay to pay our dues and we will have no choice but to “opt out” of union affiliation. He is no friend of us little old lunch bucket dems who fight for benefits.
I have made it a point to be low enough in my union to not be in the corruption, yet high enough in the union to be included in vote counting. That is the only way I am comfortable with secret ballots. I can ensure that nobody stuffed the box and I trust myself whereas I don’t trust many others….but then, there are probably some that wouldn’t trust me (because they don’t know me or whatever). At least I know that the vote is on the up and up and I (if nobody else) knows that I would not allow cheating on my side or the other.
Intimidation, groupthink, and no privacy– thanks unions!
How STUPID ARE YOU?
Thanks, UNIONS?
Try THANKS, REAGAN.
Sheesh. What an idiotic comment.
I know this has been posted before, but it bears remembering that way back in February there were warnings form some in labor: http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/news/Stock%20News/1057928/
Yep, unions saw the writing on the wall early in his campaign. NoQuarter and “IAM” had her back all the way.
http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/02/20/machinists-union-tells-it-like-it-is/
Think this guy can back ob? There are many different unions at the rally in that video. Those people will not get in line or get over it. Guaranteed.
omfg?! are you serious? what an a**hole!
What a travesty.
Are you listening, legacy media?
They’re going to publish Clinton camp memos, what about running with this? Or is this another John Edwards-type cover-up opportunity from the cowardly, losing-revenue-by-the-minute MSM?
Paul:
Yes, I read about it here
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12420.html
Let them continue trashing HRC…it’ll backfire. It is of course an attempt to undermine them b/c of the strength of her supporters. It won’t work to help BO.
It’s more ganging up against the Clintons. The MSM is sinking between BO and the Edwards story…
Totally agree, Andy.
It’s backfiring on them, big time.
andy — we are supposed to believe that it was Hillary’s mistakes that cost her the nomination and not that the DNC forced Hillary out. It won’t work because we all saw what happened in real time.
The common belief that history is written by the winners does not always work when you have eye witnesses to that history that tell a different story. No matter what event you look at, from the true story of Lincoln’s assassination to the real story of Nazi death camps, it will come out.
You can see in the “official” version of the Bush administration versus the truth we all lived through that the “cover up” didn’t work. It’s a rare person that denies the 2000 election wasn’t fraudulent and it’s a rare person today that actually believes that Obama won those caucuses no matter what the media is saying. And the premature declaration that Obama won when delegates were taken from other candidates to close a gap between the popular primary winner and Obama is now a part of our history that no declaration at the Denver convention will obliterate.
If you have a grandparent or a parent that lived through the Great Depression, World War II, you have a window on history that doesn’t appear in the history books. Mention Hoover if you don’t believe it. Like the JFK assassination, there’s the “official” version and the version everyone believes and that second version is what future historians research. Obama can run from the truth but he won’t be able to hide from the truth because historical researchers will record every dirty trick.
O/T: has anyone read this article by Carol Marin?
http://www.suntimes.com/news/marin/1099400,CST-EDT-carol10.article
That audacity is going to come right back to bite them in the rear….
Nice spin. The whole Europe trip was meant to inflate his lead. I guess we’re supposed to believe the vanishing bounce was all part of the strategy.
Read the article but the article makes it sound like this is good news for Obama because front runners become targets so it’s good that he is in a tight race. Also says that the national numbers mean nothing that it’s the state by state electoral votes that matter and there he is way ahead. I think that is rampant wishful thinking from the Obama camp but I’m sure right now they have to be giving delegates reassurance and hope. He makes me so sick.
It’s psychological spin. If it was reversed, that would be a “good thing”, too. “Reality is my perception of reality”. In the case of this political election, it’s Obama’s reality force fed to the masses.
Bad analogy
Obama’s no Seabiscuit!!!
Seabiscuit had integrity and class.
Seabiscuit was long shot (horse) that captured America’s heart.
Dream on OBAMA… LOL… you’ve captured something, but it’s NOT our Hearts!!
BOBO kind a looks like a horse.
A horse’s ass.
By-Product that come out of said ass.
The ignition of said “By-Product that come out of said ass.”
Well, the DNC are proving their jackass image.
Barry’s big head
Maybe the reason Obama doesnt need all these people is all the new voters he has managed to register. You know the dual names, names from tombstones and etc.
All the tricks to add voters used by the Chicago Political Machine — the NEW 50 (57) State strategy — taken to the next level by Obama & company.
Obama doesn’t want the “low class” voters — workers & women etc. etc.
We get the message Obama — and you will NOT have our vote — even it you “allow” Hillary to be your VP.
PUMA
Ahh… you’re right. Lots of faithful voters he can truly count on.
You know it sounds like to me, it was pre recorded, lol.
I thought that too….What an insult. Well, if the
AFL-CIO moves a finger for him then ….
Like maybe Obama never was “in the building”.
Speaking of Barry Soetoro (Barack Obama ) you might want to see the website of http://www.barrysoetoro.com
Too freak’in hilarious, seems McCain camp has the website, lol. I was just about to register it myself and noticed it is taken and actually goes to McCains website, Who said McCain was not net savy, lol.
Looks like they are fully aware of the Messiah’s true identity and Indonesian background and are just letting everyone know about it.

You got it, lol.
When the chit hits the fan and Barry Soetoro aka (Barack Obama is a household name, people will do a Google search and end up on a McCain page, too funny, Obambi undone by his own hand. It’s interesting that the website was registered April of this year, lol.
The McCain campaign and the GOP are just getting warmed up. So far, the Messiah and the DNC have been acting like Alfred E. Neuman about it. Once all that info gets released by the GOP Hounds From Hell after he secures the nomination, the Messiah and the Democratic Party will face a tsunami far bigger than anything they’ve ever experienced.
Have you all seen Mad magazine’s cover with Alfred E. Obama and Yes We Can’t?
They did it for Bush – it is not racist. he he.
I’ll have to go out an buy it. The one with Chimpy McFlightsuit was a hoot. This one should be hilarious considering all the gaffes, miscues, re-refinements, and retractions from Obuffoon.
I can’t wait to hear the collective whine from the Obanshees when they come to the realization that Oblahblah is a loser.
Oh my God. Please send all Obamabots to this website when they start cracking jokes about us believing the repugs have Barky’s real BC.
PS. So NOW will the MSM follow up on this if we send them this link?

Oh my God. Please send all Obamabots to this website when they start cracking jokes about us believing the repugs have Barky’s real BC.
The website should be sent to EVERY SUPER DELEGATE backing Obambi, lol. This way they will have no excuse if they still back him.
Hey Howard Dean,
What do you think of the http://www.barrysoetoro.com website
does it make you want to do one of your famous screams, you dufas.
I posted that link in the comments at Jake Tapper’s Political Punch blog at the ABC News site. I’m hoping that it will arouse enough curiosity that will set Mr. Tapper or someone there to investigate further into who Barry Soetoro really is.
Looks like that comment I posted over there with the link got deleted. The National Enquirer might be a better place to post that link.
that’s quite interesting. i wonder who set this up…
The website is actually registered to Tharwat.com
http://www.domaintools.com/registrant-search/?and=Tharwat.com
The interesting thing is they have another 93 websites registered to them, I’m sure some are for business but I have to wonder what other websites they may have, interesting.
I’m just not prone to spending the $123 to find out, lol.
Tharwat.com is a computer software organization.
Wow, that’s wild.
Oh my. I’m speechless. LOL, a very rare thing.
Very interesting.Hmmm….
Note: The Barry Soetoro site was issued to the McCain campaign in April of 2008..

Yeah they know.
They know lots of shit.
If that doesn’t clue you in you are blind.
THey are going to nail Bacrackhead and his Obullshit to the wall!!
Couldn’t happen to a more typical lying dirty politician.
One thing about us older folks…we are fast learners……love the website..
You are so good! I have no idea how you all find out all of this info – but thank you – It gives me hope that the RNC is all over Obama and will hopefully bring out everything about him that is posted on this website( No Quarter).
i’m listening to the broadcast now. he does sound good when he is talking. i didn’t time how long he talked for. several minutes at least. covered a lot of talking points at least. but nothing too deep, like how he will do all those things.
Pre-recorded message played on the conference call while he is boogie boarding or body surfing or hopey ropey dopey-ing or what ever it is dirty politicians do in their free time with all the money they get from kitchen cabinets in chicago.
He’s repeating an OLD SPEECH.
He didn’t even bother to personalize his talk slightly.
It’s formulaic. Why bother?
No one argues that he’s not good when “Just Words” are on a piece of paper in front of him, or on a teleprompter before him.
You can tell he’s reading–he’s trying not to rush through the thing, but he’s got a paper in front of him and he’s reciting his lines.
downloaded to realplayer. Just under 7 minutes.
“When In Doubt, Vote For The American.”
My God. I wish i did not believe this story – but know it is true. The man is an assh**e.
Labor will roll over for him like they do every Democratic presidential candidate. I wouldn’t get your hopes up.
This is what Obama meant when he said “change comes from the bottem up.” So don’t call me, I’m running for the highest office in the land.
What an arrogant loser. I tell you, he’s making GWB look good.
I don’t believe that’s possible.
Never say never.
Only Obama could have done it.
Have a look at this pic of Obambi as a kid:
http://www.chicagotribune.com/media/photo/2007-07/31063810.jpg
Does anybody know what that sign on his rather large pendant means or stands for? It seems I have seen the graphic some where else, I just can’t put my finger on it, anyone else??
it looks like the sort of “primitive art” graphic used by surf shops. looks familiar to me too and thats where i think i’ve seen the design.
That looks like a Hawaiian petrographic drawing —
Which would be logical — his mom studied Anthropology.
He looks like a cretin, even at that age.
Off topic:
Andy Martin’s new group:

It just sad how like Bush II he is. He’s no good at dealing with people. Adoring crowds he loves, but faced with people with concerns, people with questions, he’d rather be on vacation.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/media/photo/2007-07/31063810.jpg
Obambi won’t release his medical records.
Any idea if the six round welts on his knee in the above pic are medically related?
Don’t know, but as time goes on Obama is beginning to look like the “picture of Dorian Gray”.
So sad …
Prayer call when he was young muslim in training. Hard on the knees and can also cause a knot right in the middle of the forehead……lol
JUST SAY NO TO BLACK LIBERATION MARXIST THEOLOGY
NO OBAMA
MCCAIN 2008 OR UNTIL HILLARY RISES
McCain may announce that he’ll run only one-term since he’s older than Reagan when Reagan ran (age 68). That removes the age question. He’s also going to promise a bipartisan administration. All that steals any thunder Obama may have had, any raison d’etre for Obama as nominee.
Good luck waking up SD’s, but I’m taking names.
Let’s talk about unions. The union here where I live has been so ineffective that they have been unable to stop erosion of benefits at aircraft plants. And they strike again just this week. Another company I know well struck too and it did little or nothing, benefits still eroded. Recently we had a friend who died….not a union member but fell under union rule because of his paycode….when he died his life insurance for his 8 year old daughter totaled $40,000. My hubby who works for the same company who is not affiliated at all with the union, if he dies I get $325,000….tell and show me where the union helped him.
I can cite one time in recent years the union helped someone I hold dear, my aunt. She doesn’t get health insurance through her employer. My uncle was a teamster in good standing when he died….the teamsters are covering her under their insurance plan.
No one else I know has been helped by a union even our friend who worked for the railroad. Am I anti-union. You bet I am…..
I did clerical work at a California community college in various jobs for 10 years. The last job I had for four years. I was still considered part-time temporary even though I was doing the exact same work as the clerical workers who were in the union. I was not allowed to be in the union because I was not supposed to work more than 19.5 hours a week. However, many weeks I did work much more than that. The SEIU was the union by the way. This job had no benefits and did not pay into Social Security or Unemployment Compensation. Guess how I feel about unions.
Did SEIU ever even come by and talk with you?
I’m sorry you’re anti union. For every anti union story I would wager there are pro labor stories. I, myself, have seen the union save hundreds of jobs, negotiate decent pay and benefits, and language and protection. Perhaps if you could read the history of labor and see what life was like before unions, it would cause you to reflect. Of course, there are ineffective locals and the erosion of labor has been going on thanks to Ron. I feel sad when I read posts like yours. I’m even sadder that the DNC is taking our best hope for a better economy and trying to shove an inexperience egomaniac down our throats.
PUMA
Hey, Navyvet, AFvet here. We’re teamsters in the Airline industry. We’ve got very good union benefits. We’re happy to be UNION. The airlines industry is taking a hit all over; that’s not labor’s fault. Lying politicians feeding at the trough of corporate lobbyists are the real problem.
I belong to the Washington State Nurses Association and they are a total, 100% joke as far as protecting their employees.
Because of the WSNA I am totally against unions but I can not opt out. I have no choice but to pay and I have not seen them do a damn thing for anyone. In fact, I have seen them screw their employees over and over again and for the first time three years ago I tried to opt out and was told that it is now mandatory and cannot opt out.
They didn’t help me when I was having problems and they didn’t help my girlfriend who was put on open-ended “administrative leave” because she had a hand tremor. The hospital I work for sent her to a neurologist who determined that she was fine and could work but the hospital wouldn’t accept it and kept sending her to neurologist after neurologist who all said the same thing. Well, the hospital wouldn’t take no for an answer and she was on paid admin leave for more than two years. Half the time union never showed up for meetings, or returned calls, or said they couldn’t do anything, or just had a myriad of excuses and she finally got tired of fighting the hospital and her union after almost three years and got another, much lower paying job. So much for our great union. What a scam!
There is nothing worse than a professional nursing organization made up of administrators to actually be a union representative. They are pretty worthless
Truly disgusted that I am actually a member of the AFL-CIO. GRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
*****Obama’s VP choice imminent via website, e-mail, text message*****
God has not been answering my prayers, I suppose my being agnostic has something to do with that, but I am praying it is not Senator Clinton. That probably means I should brace myself for that occurrence.
Here is Bill Richardson this morning from This Week:
Coming together? Really?
Not so much – the only thing coming together is a grass roots movement against Barry Soetoro becoming POTUS.
If the asshat democrats don’t pull their collective heads out of the partys ass and do the right thing – We’re all voting for McCain.
PUMA – Not interested in the selection of Barry.
typical white person — Me thinks Richardson and the DNC protest too much. Its not coming together and it never will. Dems lose elections even when the party is unified behind their nominee. They lose even when most Americans agree with the Dems on the important issues–with millions of Democrats leaving the party. Winning is impossible. All you have to do is look at Obama’s face and his swollen eyes to see he is well aware that he is the party’s albatross. They had to rest him and tell him what a winner he is or he will burst into tears.
Truth or Consequences, ???
Gotta love the irony.
Love New Mexico.
ooo he is gonna text it! how hip! how cool!
ne1 no bobos bff?
bwahahahaaaa
also note this important warning in that article:
“When you sign up to receive the VP notification, you are offered another form to help recruit many friends and family to sign up too. NON-PARTISAN WARNING: You will soon also begin receiving regular pleas for money.”
Will Michael Obama Apologiise to the Daily Kos for banning people who Blog about Brack”s Forged COLB??
Elisabeth Edwards Apologized to the Kos, who just last week were banning people for posting diaries about John Edwards’ extramarital affair, trying to keep a lid on the story even though they must have known it was true.
This has many people on the “Left” wondering if Michael Obama will issue a similar apology to the Daily Kos who has banned people for posting diaries about Baracks’ Forged “COLB”.
PUMA and No Quarter are the just two organizations banned by the kos for pointing out in detail tha Brack Obama has forged a COLB from His half sisters 1970 COLB.
Who is Michael Obama?
The fugliest dude you’d never want to meet!
Michael Obama is a sex change operation gone horribly wrong.
Joe, you gave me my best laugh of the year.
Thank you.
I’m a diehard AA Hillary supporter. But I can’t believe you jackfruits think this is funny.
Ragging on women’s looks don’t speak well of this blog.
But if we want to go there on racial lines, I think Paris Hilton looks like a ferret.
Good idea for you all to find something else to joke about.
Sorry to offend anyone, I found it funny that the sex change operation gone terribly wrong, because it didn’t happen. It is not nice but funny.
I am sorry but I have no clue how is this racial. Please advise.
Oh, by the way, I think too that Paris Hilton has a little resemblance to ferrets. No offense intended. (I never found her ‘hot’. But she is funny sometimes.)
Hear, hear mimi! You tell them! I’m sick of women being trashed on over appearence. Besides, michelle is an attractive woman, statuesque, wears clothes well, makes a statement. It’s her attitude and what comes out of her mouth that’s a problem.
yttik,
I beg your pardon, but where is the woman-trashing here? If Michelle would have had a sex change, probably she wouldn’t be the Mrs. It woud be better for Barack, since she is probably a bad influence on him.
For the ferrets, they are cute, slender, playful and much smarter than they allow you to see. I see it more like a compliment how I see it.
I think Paris looks like a ferret too and I am a Caucasian. I can laugh at my own people like when Saturday Night Live used to make fun of Janet Reno. That was hillarious but I am not so thin skinned that I can’t take a joke about a white person. You have to go with the flow and everyone needs to stop being so “PC” about everything!
A crazed racist who weaseled out of actually having to do REAL work for her college thesis, and just decided to write up a big rant about her race instead!
TA-DA! Thesis headache OVER. Let all the Whiteys actually do real work. It probably took her one weekend.
This concerted attack on the first amendment by the fringe left is the thing that’s motivating me to spend much time at the firing range.
I never went to Kos and never gave a rat’s ass what that site had to ever say about anything.
Kos will always be a republican in drag to me. It was always clear to me he manipulates the masses. When he said he wasn’t donating to ob I wasn’t the least bit surprised. His kook-ade kidz are brainwashed and have sold their souls and minds to a loony-toon con man, um, make that TWO con-men.
same with Huffypuff. although, there are some columns worth reading there, it is overall a big old sham.
NO Quarter given to the lemmings.
AFL-CIO wanted that jerk even though many people have warned that he is a farce. AFL-CIO: you people are very slow, did you just get off the small yellow bus?
Canada on the stick:
http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/4375
He is not eligible to be POTUS
Obama running in violation of US election law
typical white person — On Hillbuzz today I read that McCain is thinking about Schwartzenegger for his VP. That would mute this issue. I pray he doesn’t do it.
Barry Soetoro aka Barack Obama
http://www.barrysoetoro.com
I love it when the internet begins to work, I wonder how long before the above website (that goes to McCain’s website)goes viral, lol.
3 references in minutes, will have to check in 24 hours, lol. Funny thing is that the Obambi camp can’t even complain about this website as it will draw attention to Obambi’s fake birth certificate, now that’s funny.
http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=www.barrysoetoro.com&btnG=Search&meta=
The more people clicking on that barrysoetoro.com link, the more likely it will be on top of Google’s search list results.
You expect the GREAT ONE to speak to the AFL-CIO? He has their money. He doesn’t need them anymore.

Not sure what it means, but BarrySoetoro.com redirects to the John McCain website. Interesting….worth posting? I don’t know, but I couldn’t resist.
http://209.157.64.200/tag/news-forum/index
Get legs baby, lol.
I belong to the AFL-CIO and have gotten 3 phone calls
and 3 flyers from my union endorsing the messiah. Union dues and PACS at work, so early.. there’s millions of dollars invested in this guy and they’ll want a return for it. So will big business who’ve invested in him too want a return for their dollars. Wonder who’ll win that tug of war?
I’m not clinging to my gun, religion and my antipathy for those who don’t look like me, but will be ignoring my own self interests this Nov. and voting McCain.
Hillary was never in consideration for VP is my strong guess. Fine with me.
PUMA
Sounds to me like Barry is in defeat mode, in other words he knows he out and doesn’t want to waste his time doing any more campaigning. My intuition tells me this trip to Hawaii was to visit his grandmother to break the news to her that the gig is up on his run for the presidency.
Just a hunch.
from your mouth to God’s ears>
COUNTRY BEFORE PARTY ALWAYS
PUMAS,BUBBAS, AND THOSE PEOPLE RULE
He’s too narcissitic for that, just like his buddy John Edwards.
Methinks he went to see Grandma-without the family-to talk serious business. Grandma has to get her story straight when they let her out of the attic.
Hot off the press: Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili subtly clowns Barack Obama’s first response to the Russian aggression (via the Wall St. Journal):
http://www.hillaryclintonforum.net/discussion/showthread.php?p=278221#post278221
This is key, and shows that world leaders like Saakashvili do not want people like Obama in power. They know he is inept and an appeaser.
Unions aren’t perfect & many of them are very nepotistic, dispite that, they usually uphold the working wage for the entire sector they represent. Until there’s a repeal of the “worker replacement act” all collective bargaining is at best a charade. Now take a good guess who was pres when it was enacted.
I totally agree.
Unions are not a panacea, but they do a lot of good.
Workers in all of Europe actually earn a wage they can live on, get 4 to 5 weeks of paid vacation, are protected from being fired overnight at the boss’s whim and have power to muscle down big business when it gets too big for it britches (I’m trying to figure out what’s scary about that?! Job security, paid leave…it must be the 10 dollars a month it costs to join a union. I mean, your bank doesn’t STEAL more than that from you every month?!)
I don’t like Obama, but some of these comments (ranging from socialized medicine- which works in every Western country BUT the USA, to reproductive rights, workers’ rights and same-sex issues) are more the likes of a ‘republicon’ and not a democrat.
We just had all the UNION LEADERS in CHICAGO last week…GUESS WHO DIDN”T SAY HELLO?
Guess whose wife didn’t say hello?
Guess who only sent a junior staffer to say hello to the union leaders who represent 13 Million voters.
No need to guess. Wonder why the middle class have told ob to kiss their ass?
memo to base – stay home.
Just want to point out that Labor Pains is ABSOLUTELY NOT a pro-union blog. Check out the other posts – strongly ANTI-union. I’m personally torn on the issue, but whatever your views, let’s be cautious about leaping on Barry too soon at a blog that is pretty clearly run by Republicans. I don’t want a doctored tape or misleading story to undermine the cause!!
Um, laborpains.org is NOT pro-labor and NOT pro-union. It is decidedly anti-both.
It is the center for union facts, funded by the right to end unions.
correct the post?????
regardless of who runs labourpains.org — it is perfectly clear what obama thinks of labour unions now that he has their endorsement…
i sure hope the union members don’t fall for Baracktrack’s lies…
on another subject,
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/08/09/ohio_secretary_of_state_sues_premier_election_solutions/
Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner wants an electronic voting machine vendor to pay for dropping hundreds of votes in the state’s March primary election.
In a filing at Franklin County Common Pleas Court, Brunner seeks unspecified damages from Premier Election Solutions, formerly Diebold. She claims Premier made false representations of its equipment and failed to live up to its contractual obligations.
a. hillary
b. mccain
america first!
Wow, he should have just sent a taped recording and saved everyone the bother.
He is going to seriously bomb when he is finally forced to debate McCain without a teleprompter or prepared speech.
I think it was a taped recording with a few altered portions. Why else the sudden hang up, ala pre-set conference call.
Worse. Than. Bush.
Read this article and watch the youtube video that accompanies it.
As the final paragraph says:
Quite interesting news:
http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/08/10/democrats-stay-brave-in-face-of-potential-clinton-challenge-at-convention/
This article just pisses me off. So the Clintons have scored plum speaking roles at the convention. So what! Hillary should be accepting her role as the Democratic nominee at the convention but the narcissistic ass**** stole the whole ball of wax from her and the Obamas just want the Clintons to go away. They don’t want them speaking about the Clinton years because they don’t want to look backwards just forward to Barky’s years as President. Well I hope Barky chokes on a $99.00 per pound ham at the convention because for the first time ever, I’m not watching this farce!!!
BO managed to should clipped and annoyed the whole time. I guess he really just can’t believe he has to stoop so low as to speak with a bunch of people he couldn’t care less about.
He really just has so much better things to do, and everyone is suddenly expecting him to tell them where he stands. The audacity!
His whole attitude the entire time was, “I BETTER get some friggin votes from you people now, wasting my precious time.”
I meant sound, not should.
I don’t disagree with the thrust of the piece concerning Obama, but it is a mischaracterization of LaborPains.org to call it a “pro-labor, pro-union blog.”
Anyone who doesn’t already know about it, there is a group called the Denver Group that is aggressively placing ads and doing other things to make sure Hillary gets a roll call vote and her name placed in nomination at the convention. Their current ad is about the Boston Tea Party and the similarities. They could use some donations too, even if you can only spare $5 bucks. The ads are great. I think they are placing them in some big prominent newspapers across the country.
Despite the arrogance and dismissiveness of Obama and this phone call, many of his naive supporters will excuse it and follow him into the abyss of NOTHINGNESS. What’s important to them is what is hip and cool. That is not how we select Presidents.
Your article shows the two sides of Obama/Soetoro.
The link below from Israel Insider indicate the same:
http://web.israelinsider.com/Articles/Politics/12745.htm
When the heck is every American going to wake up!
But that makes perfect sense! These are working people – and as Donna told us, Obama doesn’t need them – he’s got all the bright students to replace them.
meanwhile, you’ll love this headline:
http://edgeoforever.wordpress.com/2008/08/11/7-worrisome-signs-for-obama/
Awwww….but he’s not snobby, or arrogant, or any of those things, now, is he?
Keeps people waiting for nearly an hour, then serves them warmed over crap he’s dished out before and then, CLICK!!
He may as well have signed off with “And the horse you rode in on!!”
But hey, if you point out his poor behavior, why, you’re a RACIST!
Barry Soetoro aka 0vomit is also downright rude. His mother and grandmother didn’t teach him any basic manners.
But they’re just typical white racists. They have no manners to begin with. Barky is too good for them.
Obama was late to show up, and then he simply read something and hung up. I know he doesn’t give a crap, but now he doesn’t even care whether or not it shows.
It’s the same problem Edwards had, ego, ego or ego. They get to the point of believing their own hype, and cannot possibly consider anything else. They have so many people telling them what they want to hear, to consider anything else just doesn’t enter the picture. No realism at all, not capable of it. Same with their supporters. Not the point of view I want for someone as president. The magical thinking of a 4 year old.
Excellent new article from Politico. A must-read.
“7 worrisome signs for Obama”
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12433.html
Of course Obama has no clue about Union jobs, it isn’t like he has ever worked one. His proposal’s come from the angle to do nothing that isn’t already being done, yet once again he attempts to prove he has the answer. He might want to do a little more homework on states rights as per labor laws and right to work states. The sad thing again is his “yadda-yadda, I can help the unions” when of course he has no method or means.
Lesbian Donna and Coward Dean are responsble fo this guy. Hillary is stupping to a new low to allow these people to destroy the party.
Leave that party hILLARY AND BILL YOU ARE BETTER THAN THEM….
No matter what he thinks of labor unions, why couldn’t he even fake it well? That’s one lousy politician.

Every time that dud opens his mouth he sounds more and more like he’s been programmed. Great, a Stepford Candidate.
Let them riot, and this is a half black woman saying this. After they riot take those idiots to the prisons where they belong and they can meet up with those IP stealers and hackers too. Let them burn their own town and let them all sell drugs afterwards. If this is what they want to do- then be they have our permission . The truth is that Obama is cheating with this birth certificate- his ties are scary- his wife is not lady like material- and I am hoping that Hillary Clinton doesn’t take the VP slot. Because if she does- it is up to everybody on this blog to take down Obama and give her the first slot whether she belongs! I can bet the Republicans know that this is a winning ticket and will finally come up with the garbage on Obama just to make sure he is not on the first place. They rather see Hillary (old habit) then have this thug run our country! You just watch!
He never has been a friend to labor, just ask the plant workers in Galesburg, Illinois at what was Maytag. We here in Eastern Iowa and western Illinois know the real Obama.
Hillary’s Surprise?
New York
Could Senator Clinton win the Democratic presidential nomination at the last minute by taking advantage of buyer’s remorse among Democratic super-delegates who are dismayed by the performance of Senator Obama’s campaign so far?

F***ing “A”. Good video.
Someone needs to check their facts on this source. Laborpains.org is neither pro-labor nor pro-union. It is operated by the Center for Union Facts, an anti-union lobby group started by Richard Berman, an anti-union lobbyist. Previously a labor lawyer for Bethlehem Steel, he is the labor law director for the US Chamber of Commerce.
Hey, speaking of deleting comments, I posted a comment once, and it was in response to an Obamabot’s rant on racism.
I told him how they were the ones keeping racism front and center in everything they do because they use it to get what they want. In business, in help, in careers, in finances, in court, even to get away with murder!! Everything! They use it as leverage.
After I wrote that, the troll responded ever so slightly because he couldn’t think of anything to say, and then 20 minutes later, his original comment was deleted.
Great video, We miss you Hillary

Obama was about 40 minutes late to the show. You can image how fantastic 40 minutes of Muzak went over. Finally, John Sweeney introduced Obama. Next … After rattling off nearly the exact same speech he delivered a few months ago to the AFL-CIO (see above), Obama proceeded to hang up. Click. Just like that.”… Go to “Stood Up and Hung Up” to view a video and to listen to the actual phone call… It is such an annoyance to have to talk to those “typical” little people. [...]
“Originally, I had described NoQuarter as pro-Obama. That is not entirely true.”
I mean, the title of the blog is “LaborPains.” It’s basically just dedicated to bashing labor unions and the very idea of card check unionization, which all the major unions support. The author’s probably on the payroll of the Chamber of Commerce or the National Association of Manufacturers. So you described the blog as the exact opposite of what he is, then acknowledged that that (1000% incorrect) description was “not entirely true.”
Well, fantastic. Can we expect a similar acknowledgment with regards to Obama’s alleged Kenyan, Indonesian, and Martian birth certificates/citizenship in the near future? Oh, wait, that’s a different one of you unhinged lunatics who’s pushing the birth certificate myth, isn’t it? It can be hard to tell you apart sometimes.

Jay Leno, of the long-running Tonight Show, said: “Barack Obama now says he’s open to offshore oil drilling. So, apparently, when he promised change, he was talking about his mind.”

NOOBMA!
HILLARY 08-OR-BUST TO THE NEXT BEST CANDIDATE WE HAVEMCCAIN.
NEVER OBBAMA WHAT A JOKE !
We have this display with a teleconference and Obama announces he will “text” people with his choice of VP.
I think the man is loosing it.
I keep hearing top former Hillary supporters that true Hillary supporters are and will be supporting Obama and the rest of us are stupid no counts. Let me tell you something, anyone that believes that to be true are only the ones that have been promised something like money or place in his administration and us stupid no counts will go down in history as courageous true democrats trying to save the county that they love even if the party has to be destroyed and a new beginning.
Rules committee on the platform wouldn’t even listen to the people and what they wanted and stood for.
The whole democratic ticket down the line will pay dearly at the poles dismissing the voters the way they have.
