Obama's fake fainting women

This changed my view on Obama quite a bit. he is using women to pretend to faint at his speeches to show how calm and helpful he is, offering them water, etc. it has happened in at least 9 cities...coincidence? i think not.

Ooh this nafta story kind of scares me about him. He is saying one thing right now but I am afraid he will do another. If he does get the nod I hope that he can stick to his words. He would probably be better than hillary. Really all 3 viable choices aren't that good right now IMO.

Anyone think that after the first couple faintings he probably you know, figured out what worked and what to say and what to do to remedy the situation as quickly and effectively as possible? Every time someone cuts me off in traffic I yell "Fuck you, shitwagon" because it's the best way to handle the situation. Every time a dame fainted at his rallies, he says "Give her some space, here's some water"  because it's the best way to handle the situation. OMFGOOSE OBAMA IS TEH LIARZ. As if Billary isn't bullshitting about 90% of her campaign... cram it, noobs.

let me put some parentheticals into this... Politics in America (only in America? probably a few other places too... like everywhere) has turned into (its just turned into this? i seem to recall these kinds of things happening in... every election in history?) all us Americans understand (sometimes the aforementioned mudslinging can lead to a person pushing the mental mute button when Hillary or Barack , or more likely any one of the talking heads on tv come and start talking talking talking...) Good ol Hilldog for figuring this out (didnt the Clinton crew always have this kind of thing on lock?) Mr. Obama..talking about ending corrution and special interest influence in washington...(Isnt there some kind of trial going on in Chicago... some guy who was... I dont know... the embodiment of corruption?)

anyway, no politician is above your gripes. not even the Messianic Obama.  I wish people could come to grips with that.

they're going to have to if they want him to win.  the disenchantment caused by all of clinton's shit talking (as contrived and ridiculous as it was) is what's causing the momentum change that's going on right now.

Don't bother arguing with the guy, its not even worth it.

Obama is going to win, and I am going to vote for him.  If anyone thinks I'm brainwashed, I'lli list a few of his policies I like:

1. indexing minimum wage to inflation
2. reforming the tax code so that your average person can do their taxes
3. negotiating with so-called enemies of the U.S.
4. eliminating tax loopholes for corporations
5. tax cuts for the middle class


so what do I like about him personally?  he sees politics not as a series of partisan battles, but as a series of problems that need to be addressed.  he doesn't seem polarizing.

you're completely right, but in my opinion, he's a hell of a lot closer than the other candidates.  As for th trial going on in Chicago, yes a man who Obama had formerly done business with and was connected to is under trial, Obama is not.  However, Obama has admitted his wrongs and returned all contriutions made from this guy, so I mean, what more do you want for him to do here?

theres nothing else really. the question is rather whether he would have had such a change of heart had the connection not been brought to light... kinda like hillarys main man norman hsu... when these folks get publicly exposed then the politicians they support are quick to cut ties... but probably only when they get exposed.

Its funny how all the obama advisors are undermining him on national tv.  They are all aware that his claims of change are unrealistic.

my threads.

as for the video, idk, i think it was real, i dont think its that big of a deal. 

i do think its beat shit that its stooped this low though.  like now politicians arent satisfied with the oldschool tactics, for example this weekend obama is chilling with his family, and McCain is having a BBQ, those are nice connections with the average citizen, but now politics have gone so far as to stage fainting situations? its sad. but we all have to deal with it.  ye diggg?

I think it, like most of the middle east, is run by people who we used to support but have fucked over and ignored since just about the time the cold war started winding down.  Funny how people hold silly grudges these days!

Try 1954 when the jews were placed by the UN on their land without asking them first.

most does not mean all, and I do very much agree with you.  If I had a bunch of people placed on my land and could do nothing about it, I'd be pissed off.

I dont know what point youre trying to make, so I'll try my best here...

by refusing to deal with leaders of some countries, we will never make any progress.  maybe talking with these leaders won't produce any positive results, but neither will not talking to them.  the u.s. needs to realize that not every country has to be a democracy.  its like cuba...not trading with cuba is bad for cuba, bad for the u.s.

oh and by the way, v for vendetta is one of the shittiest movies I have ever seen

they "made" you go? because personally i think it would be awesome to hear the president (any president) speak live. It's such an honorary position, you should feel privileged to have had such a rare experience

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

how can you adhere so blindly to party ideology?  you're too young to be that stupid.  i have yet to see a single political post from you that differs even slightly from the official party line.

i'm traveling the country backhanding people like you on both sides of the spectrum.  please post your street address so i can smack the stupid out of you.
