Sex, Drugs, Race, War, "The Rock Star"

Hey folks,

He smoked pot. Used cocaine. He is a good looking Black man. "Clean, and articulate." The Mass Media LOVES him. They forgive is indiscretions. They are not only NOT going after him as they did with others. They are flooding your mind with his image. They have put this guy on a pedestal, turned up the spot lights, and they are ready for the show. I wonder what Hillary thinks of yet another Weekend of all Obama, all the time.

Let’s see, first he talks about his drug used in the past, something he regrets. They he says the faith of a candidate doesn’t matter. {He has to over come that whole story about him attending a Muslim school} He said about faith,

"If your name is Barack Hussein Obama, you can expect it, some of that. I think the majority of voters know that I'm a member of the United Church of Christ, and that I take my faith seriously," Obama said in an interview with The Associated Press.

"Ultimately what I think voters will be looking for is not so much a litmus test on faith as an assurance that a candidate has a value system and that is appreciative of the role that religious faith can play in helping shape people's lives," he said.

Then he even admits that he has a lot against him. About race and experience?

"I think that early on it may spark some curiosity or a sense of novelty, but I think very quickly people will be judging me on the merits. Do I have a message that resonates with people's concerns about health care and education, jobs and terrorism?" he said. "And if they do, then I think race won't be a major factor."

He also admitted he has a lack of experience in comparison to the other candidates. This doesn’t stop him from going after Hillary though.

Senator Barack Obama piled pressure on Hillary Clinton over Iraq, as his Democratic presidential rival faced mounting scrutiny over her vote to authorize the war in 2002.

Obama questioned how the New York Senator would make good on her vow to end what he is calling a "tragic" conflict that should never have been waged, as he fired up packed campaign rallies in Iowa and his hometown of Chicago.

Remember, she said that if Bush did not end the war before she had to deal with it. She WOULD! {Laughing} although, as usual, she didn’t say how. He said,

"I am not clear on how she would proceed at this point to wind down the war in a specific way," Obama, 45, told reporters when asked to critique Clinton's plans for ending the bloody US engagement during a campaign stop in Iowa.

"I know she has stated that she thinks the war should end by the start of the (next) president's first term .... beyond that though, how she wants to accomplish that, I am not clear, I would let her address those issues."

Then Obama made news when he got blasted from Australia's Prime Minister John Howard,

CANBERRA, Australia (CNN) -- Australia's conservative Prime Minister John Howard said Sunday that victory for Democratic Sen. Barack Obama and his party in next year's presidential election would be a boon for terrorists.

"If I were running al Qaeda in Iraq, I would put a circle around March 2008, and pray, as many times as possible, for a victory not only for Obama, but also for the Democrats," Howard said, speaking on "Sunday," a TV show on Australia's Nine Network.

Obama? He said he was flatter. He said,

"If he's ginned up to fight the good fight in Iraq, I would suggest that he calls up another 20,000 Australians and send them to Iraq," he said. "Otherwise it's just a bunch of empty rhetoric."

Yes the MMD has turned this whole thing around to all Obama, all the time. I think they have made their choice. The Clintonese and the Hillatites cannot be happy. Neither can she. Look for her to strike back SOON and hard.

Then again, there IS another possibility here folks. That is that she is behind this whole media blitz to begin with. Have them build him up to the standard so high where he cannot meet it. Sit back, and watch him self destruct. Just a thought.
