		<description>Rezko, Reverend Wright, Bitter?  Is this what the Clintonians are hanging their hopes on to try and detract from Obama.  Please, Please give me some factual information on illegal deals with Rezko, show me that Reverend Wright constantly preached hate mongering over this 20 year period, give me evidence of elitist behaviour exhibited by Obama.


Nothing.  As I thought, all talk and wishful thinking.

To Steve:  Rich Grandparents?? Huh, where did you get that info.  Please post.   I&#039;ve always heard of those welfare mom&#039;s putting themselves through the humiliation of getting food stamps rather that mooching off their rich parents.</description>

		<description>Ok, let&#039;s all take a reality check here...

So many of you Clinton backers (which I was just two months ago) keep saying to those who support Obama:

&quot;Wake up and see Obama for who he really is!&quot;

Despite all the slinging and criticism about the meaning of his recent spoken words -- which by the way were all dimissed as &quot;just flowery words&quot; when they were positive and uplifting, but are factual and condemning when they are in any way negative -- Obama has shown that he genuinely seeks to do the right things, apologize for his faults, and SPEAK HONESTLY.

Sen Clinton, on the other hand, has DEMONSTRATED that she will DO AND SAY ANYTHING to advance her position at any point in time -- including flat out LIE.

So I ask you, who would you really TRUST to lead this country?  

Sensible thinkers trust Obama.</description>

		<description>First..i must say that I am not supporting ANY of the candidates...they all make my skin crawl, because when you actually do your research, you find they ALL are liars.

What i find hilarious though is that the people not ticked off by his &quot;bitter&quot; and more remarks....are those of us in PA.  And you know why?  Because we listened to it all...not just the excerpts that the press post to try to cause controversy, so that it&#039;s all more &quot;exciting&quot; so people will watch.

We ARE bitter at the government...rightly so...and being here in the smack centre of PA, i can tell ya.....we love our guns ;-)

What i find MORE insulting is Hillary&#039;s sudden, extremely FAKE southern accent she&#039;s been putting on so thick lately, as she &quot;pulls up her boot straps&quot;.  It&#039;s insulting, and just makes me want to slap her every time she talks to us here.  And she wonders why she&#039;s losing her lead big time. Just because we have a lot of farms, and like our guns, does not mean that we are hicks, and does not mean that we are southeners.  Last i checked....we are still in the northeast.</description>

		<description>Okay, he might not be an elitist, but neither is he in touch with average Americans in any way.  His career has been one long campaign with one goal - the White House.   That&#039;s not the kind of experience that will be effective.  It&#039;s certainly not the kind of experience I would vote into office.</description>

		<description>Gov-vie! Thank you. I say the same thing all the time. There&#039;s a BIG difference between making a gaffe or an error and all the candidates do it over the course on a long election process.

However, I do differentiate this with just LYING and sticking to this LIE even after it&#039;s brought to their attention. 

While the Democrats are fighting, John McCain is riding around on his scooter saying all kinds of things and running into all kinds of stuff. As with Americans Airlines, his handlers have pulled him off the turmac and it now doing maintenace on his wirings.

Now ,his Economics plans sounds more like 100. Once he gets to 101 Economics, the Democrats are in Trouble! The RNP will hang a &quot;MISSION ACCOMPLISHED&quot; sign on his scooter and that will be it. lol</description>

		<description>He&#039;s correct, people are bitter, disillusioned, and generally ticked off at the morons in the WH, Congress, state governments, punditocracy, and the corporate media ... 

It&#039;s about time someone says exactly what realt folks are thinking .. enough of this feel-good, flag-waving BS that the Rethugs like to use and the BS &quot;I&#039;m the most experienced&quot; poop ...  What we need is someone who is beyond all that BS and gets to frickin&#039; work on day one ... not wondering who&#039;s favor to repay from day-one ... 

Enough is enough, I&#039;m bitter and proud to say so ...</description>

Obama is no elitist and whoever believes that I have land to sell you in Iraq!! Candidates constantly throw out names so the media came make a big deal about nothing!! The name calling and falsehoods are coming from one direction and that's the falling ship of the Clinton campaign!! She didn't think Obama could the nomination like Richardson said and now she's pulling out all the stops!! I have a name to call Obama,"The Democratic nominee for 2008!"</p>

		<description>I love the show of intelligence in these forums.  Anyone with half a brain can understand what Obama meant in his statements.  Maybe if people would make decisions on their own rather than letting the politicians and TV make them for you, you would not be so quick to jump on the &quot;bittergate&quot; bandwagon.

I love it when people say that all Obama does is &quot;lie lie and lie again,&quot;, but they never really cite what he is lying about.  Politicians are the same, they will make a mess-up and then attempt to fix it to keep themselves in the race.  Nobody is perfect.  I respect Obama for sticking by his true statement, as well as not throwing his pastor under the bus when that was not politically correct.  

The problem that I have with Clinton is that there seems to be no true direction for her campaign.  It&#039;s like a hit or miss tactic.  She will keep throwing things out there, and if they don&#039;t resonate with the voters, she moves onto something else.  The fact that she is milking this whole bitter controversy scandal shows that she will do whatever she thinks it will take to win.  She might call herself a fighter, but she is only fighting her own bad judgement these days.  Obama, aside from the recent problems, has stayed on point with his message.  If everyone wants to claim rezko for his sudden increase of fortune, anyone with google can see that he made his money off of book sales.  But I guess that its too much to ask for people to actually find things out on their own.</description>

		<description>First want to let Steve know that Obama&#039;s grandparents that helped raise him was no where near rich.  Read his book and you would know that.

Second why are we still even discussing this stupid topic.  Maybe he misspoke but in the long run he is pretty much right on the money.  I am from a small town, single parent and hit hard by the economy.  I am very bitter with my government and I own guns and go to church, but what he said did not offend me in any way.  People need to stop worrying about such nonissues and worry about who is going to make our economy and country a better place.

Obama knows what the American people want and he is what we need!!!</description>

		<description>Once again here we go with the speculation. Obama as owned up to his relationship with Rezko but he is not being indicted. I wonder why! Maybe because he did nothing wrong. So let that go too.... Can we talk about stuff that makes sense. How many of you actually think that any politician who supposedly has as many connections as Hillary and John are going to actually do some work for the American people. They&#039;ll be to busy from day one trying to pay back political favors. We need a president of the poeple, for the people, by the people.



GO OBAMA &#039;08&#039; &#039;12&#039;</description>

		<description>There is some exaggeration in this story.  I have read a great deal on Barak&#039;s mother because I find her really interesting and intriguing.  Barak did not have a struggling childhood.  It may have been different, but certainly not sparse.  He does not have a Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton story, that&#039;s for sure.  Also, when I was a newlywed, I certainly did not have a condo and I had student loans.  These things do not exempt one from being an elitist.  A great many wealthy and/or famous folks grew up in &quot;struggling&quot; situations.  It is attitude that creates elitists, not education or wealth.</description>

		<description>The next time I hear Rezko mentioned against Obama, I think  I&#039;ll just recall the glory years of Whitewater and whatever the Saudi&#039;s have done for Bill Clinton lately.  Ahhh yes, such fond memories.  The Clintons and Hillary&#039;s fans really don&#039;t want that brought up again, do they? And you know the Republicans will this Fall.  There is so much more slime on the Clinton side, I don&#039;t think they want to go there.</description>

		<description>To Joanne who said Obama would not be where he is without the black vote, I would like to say that no democratic candidate can get where they are without the black vote.  They are a substantial part of the voting public and their vote carries exactly the same weight as yours or mine.  The black community tends to rally around a democratic candidate, and this time it&#039;s Obama.  Last time it was a white man.  Your comment is very racist.  Just an observation from another typical white woman.</description>

		<description>Its sad that Obama has so fooled his supporters that they can not even admit when he makes a mistake.

Obama called millions of Americans racist. This has little to do with the word bitter..

Obama is not the great peace keeper and healer he claims. He is arrogant, and shows no problem re-telling his story to fool everyone. If this was HRC, you would be screaming LIAR. Well, Obama has lied about his remarks.

His typical political tactics are disgusting. He is worse than Hillary will ever be and his ridicule of Clinton was wrong. Now I see where is supporters get it from. You are sad people clinging to false hope, with little evidence that he can change anything.</description>

		<description>For two politicians who are each worth $100 million to call another, who actually lived on food stamps and just finished paying of school loans from decades ago an elitist is simply politics... 

Also, isn&#039;t it interesting that they only focus on the last part of what he said and completely ignore the premise... &quot;that these people have lost their source of income for over 25 years and nothing has replaced it&quot;... 

We are tired of these dirty political tricks!

		<description>Hopefully Obama repeats this line of counter-punching tomorrow at the Philly debate forcefully and articulately.  When the question comes up that Obama is an elitist and Hillary attacks, Obama should just smile and state the following in his calm and cool way:

&quot;I don&#039;t understand how someone who was raised by a single mother, was on food stamps for a part of their childhood, lived in a poor Indonesia village for part of their childhood, earned scholarships, had to finance their own law school education, and recently paid them off be called elitist.&quot;

Then watch the audience respond!</description>

		<description>Does anyone not realize that elitism is NOT a measure of wealth, but a measure of attitude towards your peers.  Hillary understands blue collar, even if she&#039;s not blue color.  Obama gives the impression, through his own words, that he looks down on blue color citizens. 

That&#039;s what elitism is.</description>

		<description>There are a lot better places to live in Chicago than a three bedroom condo on the south side. Lets ask Hillary about her days at the lake house and brunches at the Governor&#039;s mansion if you want to hear elitist.</description>

		<description>We all need to stop fighting and learn to make informed decisions as adults. Respect each other&#039;s choice and just wait to see who the nominee will be. If you guys don&#039;t stop fighting, we all lose. The war will continue, nothing will change, economy will keep falling and the environment will be in bad shape. Doesn&#039;t it matter more to you guys that we have a person who will work on these things. I&#039;d rather have Clinton or Obama, not McCain. 

You guys need to grow up and stop parroting words. 

I guess some people never outgrow the school yard mentality. If your candidate can&#039;t win the nomination, you&#039;re going to vote for McCain. For those who act that way, you deserve the mess we&#039;re in and the greater mess to come. I for one don&#039;t want to have endless war, a recession, inadequate health care, and global warming. Maybe it’s just me, but I want the world to be a better place for the coming generation and I don’t even have kids of my own. I don’t want to see other people’s kids die in war. Everyone should start caring more for each other and stop acting like bullies on these posts.</description>

The Clintons have only recently made more money, Hillary didn&#039;t grow up wealthy by any means.&lt;/b&gt;

You had better go back and read Hillary&#039;s biography...your ignorance is astounding...Wellsley College is not for the poor.</description>

		<description>Elitist:  Some one who really thinks she is better than anyone else and deserves to have whatever she wants, even if she has to call an intelligent, hard-working, sincere person an elitist to knock him down.  This person could fight back with a long list of really serious, negative things , but he doesn&#039;t, because he is not an elitist.  

I am dizzy.  Hillary makes me dizzy.  Please, take her away.  End the war in Iraq and the one in the Democratic party.</description>

		<description>Wake up america. Do you want anymore of this bunch of immoral power hungry group in the Whitehouse? The Clintons have and will continue to se;; america out to the highest bidder. lies, mistatements, and perjury are a way of life for these folks. They will sell out anyone for a vote. Ask those who knew Mr. Foster. The are shameless. Hillary has never been the victim of anything. She has been a co-conspirator in all of the Clinton shady deals. Those who are supporting her above the average voter, want something from her or are afraid of her. This includes the spineless media who would rather create soundbite disputes than seek out truth and report on it. Send thes scallywags packing. Don&#039;t let america become a Clinton piggybank there for the looting.</description>

		<description>Of course, the Clintons really do believe that Obama is elitist/uppity.  They didn&#039;t think he had any right to even think he was good enough to run for President.  They thought it was one big fairy tale for him to think he had any chance at all.  After all Hillary and Bill are the head of the Democratic Party.   And the very idea that he wouldn&#039;t bow out so she could grab her due, how arrogant of him.
Hillary Clinton, I will love it when I am able to vote for the first female president, but it will never be you.  You have set the woman&#039;s movement back 50 years.  Only time will tell how far you are setting the Democratic Party back,  as this is the first time I can remember when a Democratic candidate running for the nomination, stood before the nation and told bald face lies, one after another and then you took us for  such idiots you had the nerve to tell it was because you were tired.  What kind of President would that make?   I won&#039;t be a sucker for you Hillary, just because I am a white, middle aged woman.</description>

		<description>Obama is Arrogant and Elitist and will not bring Change to America as he has already proven by accusing small-town Americans of picking up their bibles and guns and taking out their frustrations on people not like themselves when times are bad.</description>

		<description>Barack Obama has made amends over his comments; however, Hillary will not leave it alone.  I wonder how she would feel if he hammered on her integrity everyday  -  maybe he should ask her if the bullets flying over her head have muddled her thought process.  When she apologizes for &quot;misspeaking&quot;, you don&#039;t hear Sen Obama raking her over the coals - yet, he has every right to make an issue of her integrity.   I personally find it offensive that Hillary choses to lie to supporters about her Bosnia trip, and then there was the hospital issue about the child with no insurance, and then there&#039;s NAFTA.   Was she always exhausted and sleep deprived?   Well we certainly wouldn&#039;t want her answering that phone at 3 am if she can&#039;t handle a late night or two!  Where does it end folks???  Sen Obama has my vote!</description>

		<description>You were not elitish before, Obama ,because you were poor, but your problem now  you become rich and fighting for the nomination for Presidency, from the beginning of your campaign so many people and I myself have said that you are so arrogant, you always says that you know everything that you are the best, and that you are better than anybody, you can say anything you want and if we disagree with you you just don&#039;t care we just have to take it or leave it you don&#039;t know how to apologize you will just try to be clever and get away with it. I know that you were feeling BITTER during your younger days and I am glad that you did not cling to guns only in drugs, your wife was bitter too she never like her country it&#039;s only now that she&#039;s starting to like it.  This is the reason why you cannot condem REV. Wright because your family are rejoicing listening to your Pastor for 20 years. Try to find yourself of what you are, who you are and maybe you will have more peace. Bitternes becomes Hatred!!! that what J WRIGHT will tell us</description>
