As you know no doubt know, Obama just took his first big trip abroad as president … to Ottawa. That got me to thinking – it has been almost a year since Canadian TV reported that Obama’s aide, Austan Goolsbee, was assuring Canada that NAFTA was safe and sound, despite Obama’s campaign promises to [...]

Good news, All Ye Faithful! The Obama Camp has designed religious paraphernalia on which you can spend your hard-earned dollars! Now you can show your adoration for your faith and for Obama all at the same time! Oh, wait – was that redundant?? At God-O-Meter, the new items available were revealed. Oh, yes.

The AFL-CIO endorsed Obama. They have released two mailers. The first mailer is here:
• “Does he wear a flag pin on his lapel? Yes, but not always. Like many presidential candidates, sometimes he wears a flag pin, sometimes he wears a breast cancer awareness pin, sometimes he wears his U.S. Senate [...]

Seriously, Is Obama Just a Puppet? »

We first learned who was behind Obama and his inspiring speeches months ago. Those very speeches that excited the crowds, and drew people in. Those very speeches that many people voted for. Despite the fact that he ever really said anything more than just *hope* and *change*, people saw JFK, MLK and RFK all rolled [...]

Groggy Democrats are waking up with a terrible hangover after a year of drinking the Obama “Magic Elixir” and are getting a good look in the morning light at the real Barack Obama. Holy hair shirt! The dude ain’t the handsome charmer that seduced us. He is looking more and more [...]

Rove: Obama is the Democrats’ Nixon »

By SusanUnPC on Jul 10, 2008 in Barack Obama, Campaigns & Campaign Financing, Death Penalty, Economy, Electability, FISA, NAFTA | 272 Comments

“Instead of consistency, Mr. Obama has followed Richard Nixon’s advice, to cater to his party’s extreme in the primaries and then move aggressively to the middle for the fall.
“In the primary, Mr. Obama:

supported pulling out of Iraq within 16 months,

called the D.C. gun ban constitutional,

backed the subjection of telecom companies to expensive [...]

Salon Reporter Hears the PUMAs Growl »

Rebecca, you’re surprised you’ve heard from thousands of PUMAs? Really?
When you write, “Who are these women, and why are they such buzzkills?”
When you fail to acknowledge the primary reason that PUMAs oppose Barack Obama — which is his utter lack of qualifications and experience?
Especially since you did not interview a single member [...]

Ah, it is “feel the love” day. American Prospect put up a piece by David Weigle with the catchy title, Larry Johnson’s Strange Trip that strongly suggests nobody likes me. The rightwingers hate me (Rush called me a “leftwing hack”) and the “progressives?” They are in full meltdown.
And then I got this [...]

Barack Obama: A Bold-Faced Liar? »

By SusanUnPC on Jun 23, 2008 in Austan Goolsbee, Barack Obama, David Axelrod, Iraq, Joseph Wilson, NAFTA, Qualifications | 123 Comments

See also, the true story about that 2002 Iraq speech, so little noted that it wasn’t videotaped or even covered in Chicago media, forcing the Obama campaign to “recreate” the speech, as reported by NPR: “The Staged Iraq War Speech & More “Creative” Embellishments.”
This means, of course, that we have to take creative [...]

By Deb Cupples on Jun 21, 2008 in Campaigns & Campaign Financing, Current Affairs, Economy, FISA, NAFTA, Obama | 204 Comments

It’s been a painfully interesting few days for progressives who were cock positive that Barack Obama would prove to be an agent of capital-C Change –for those who truly believed that he was new and clean and would fight against corrupt, self-serving, old-style Washington politics.
The biggest clue that such capital-H Hopes were not rooted [...]
