BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) – Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama did not urge Iraqi officials to delay a decision on a security agreement with the United States, Iraq's foreign minister told CNN on Sunday.
The statement by Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari refutes a recent published report and a statement by Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin that Obama tried to influence Iraqi politicians negotiating with the United States to score political points.
Fact Check: What did Obama tell the Iraqis?
Obama "never, ever discouraged us not to sign the agreement," Zebari said. "I think this was misrepresented, and I have clarified this case in a number of interviews back in the United States recently."
The Washington Times reported Friday that in June, Obama told Iraqi leaders in Baghdad that an agreement between the United States and the leaders to allow U.S. troops to stay in the country after 2008 should not go into effect unless it had congressional approval.
The newspaper quoted Samir Sumaidaie, the Iraqi ambassador to the United States, about a June 16 telephone conversation between Zebari and Obama.
But the article did not contain a comment from Zebari.
The campaign of Obama's Republican rival, Sen. John McCain, argued that Obama's call interfered with U.S. efforts to reach a "status of forces agreement" with the Iraqi government. The United States and Iraq have yet to announce an agreement despite numerous reports that one was near.
During a Friday fund-raiser in Madeira, Ohio, Palin said Obama tried to influence the negotiations "in a way that would set back America's cause there, while advancing his campaign here."

ANOTHER example of Sarah lying! What kind of status will the USA have with committed lairs like John and Sarah in office?
How many more lies doe this woman have to tell?? Sarah Palin brings shame to women who have put their sincere efforts in advancing the cause and stature of women.
Another Palin Lie exposed. No wonder they Bood her in Philly. This woman has no credibility left.
who knows what is the real truth.
What republicans were lying about Obama's record? Like they do every time they open their mouth. Its all they got to run on now adays.
Again, why is this news?! Of course Obama did not ask to delay anything. This is just another lie in a host of lies being spread by the McCain camp.
As the old expression goes: if McCain's or Palin's lips are moving, they're lying.
Yeah, and this will TOTALLY stop Sarah "Campaign to Nowhere" Palin from repeating. That woman has met a lie she doesn't like yet.
I wan under the impression that in this country we are not to make unfounded allegations against someone. Many people have been know to be sued for this behavior.
We have come to expect this behavior from the airhead, because, well, she's an airhead.
However, the Washington Post needs to be held accountable.
Just my opinion.
Sarah's lying again? Eh, what else is new.
There she goes again, lie, lie, lie.....
Alas, just another lie in the slimy long line of them from the McCain / Palin ticket. They are truly pathetic.
Bush..er..I mean Palin's lying again? Eh, what else is new.
Sarah Palin needs to keep her mouth closed and listen for a change. She is no diplomat, and is so unqualified to be in a leadership position, that it is frightening. Go back to Alaska, Sarah, and clean out from under your own doorstep before trying to do it to others.
Well, there goes another 'conspiracy' theory inspired by the hate filled Neo-con Stalin youth, aka GOP.
But, Palin was still guilty, ironic eh? how does a ticket with two convicted criminals get elected? It's either because we have stupid people or racist people...there is no other answer.
The records stand for themselves. McCain did, FACT, commit treason as a POW. This pathetic notion that the right wing morons at the rallies cling to about Obama are hypocritical in light of the fact that they are supporting a known TRAITOR of the USA.
Go figure....I think that leads me to believe it's racist, because nobody would be stupid enough to believe that McCain was a good man.
Obama/Biden '08. Because I want a leader that has never committed treason against my country.
there we go again.. once again.. the pit-bull with a lipstick is caught lieing. I don't know how many times I am going to say shame, shame shame Sarah Palin!!!!!... Keep lieing and it will always be brought to light.
Maybe we should be asking who is Sarah Palin?
These lies are only a pattern of how McCain would run his administration. They have no problem lying to the American people.
Trust and Honor are two words that can be found on the bathroom toilet tissue in the McCain campaign.
Would the Repugnicans Lie? Whoa... that's news to me. I feel so.... let down.
Palin will never admit she was incorrect in making such an inflammatory statement. Even after she was found to have abused her position as governor, she has been characterizing the report as completely vindicating her from any wrongdoing. She continues to misrepresent Obama's history and positions–the McCain campaign is wholly lacking in integrity.
Just another lie in a long list of lies from the Hockey Mom. I guess if you deliver a lie with a wink and a "you betcha", she thinks it makes it true. Check the facts everyone.
THE IRAQI FM OUGHT TO KNOW. JUST ANOTHER LIE BY MC CAIN -PALIN
I AM VOTING FOR THAT ONE
GO O AND JOE
more palin/mccain lies aided by washington times. disgusting politics. we are sick of people lying to us about our politicians. we just want truth. america doesn't know what truth is anymore. all because of bush/cheney/rove/rumsfeld and republican supporters.
This story should be HEADLINES. Palin's lies, once again, show her lack of ethics.
Oh wait – a legislative panel in Alaska already proved that!
Again the McCain/Palin repugs have to resort to twisting the truth to fit their inflamatory stump speechs for ginnig up the neocan and racist base.
Fear smear, mock and LIE – The dishonorable hallmark of the geezer and princess campaign becasue that's all they have...
Palin will say ANYTHING to win. She is a LIAR. So, it doesn't surprise me to hear from the Iraqi foreign minister that Obama did not ask the country to delay on a security agreement.
Palin – go back to Alaska. You are not wanted in the White House.
So Sarah Palin touted another BIG LIE. What else is knew?
Is she disqualified yet?
Palin just shoots off at the mouth with false allegations! You wonder why her negatives are so high? How about you focus on fixing the economy insteading of throwing the kitchen sink at Obama. I am so sick of this - wish the election was over already!
I'm not a violent person, but I'm starting to wish someone would staple Palin's mouth shut.
Thank you. We knew already it was a lie, coming out of lying red lips.
ALL PALIN DOES IS LIE, LIE, LIE. SHE IS A COMPLETE PHONY! NICE JOB MCCAIN. DOPE!
So Sarah Palin touted another BIG LIE. What else is new?
Is she disqualified yet?
Palin is a disgrace to the US. Period.
Just more propoganda from the pitbull proven false – AGAIN.
Desperate is as desperate does. And she is definitely desperate!
The palin/mccain camp is making the US look like fools. Before the media write anything the palin/mccain camp says. They should double check it, to keep them (the media) from looking uncreditable.
It is amazing to me why anyone would want palin in office, after she has been found guilty abusing her powers in Alaska. Imagine if she gets in office how she and todd would fire everyone that disagrees with them. The first to go would be mccain and the second will be the supreme court justices who are in favor of Roe vs Wade
i dont know why i keep posting here. u haven't posted a comment all weekend for me. and yet i keep posting. is this an illness that is treatable?lol!
We knew the truth. Palin probably knows this as well, but she has no moral code that prompts her to tell the truth.
Palin and her ticket are creating any diversion they can to bring our country down in order to win the election. It is a guide to all voters on how they will run the country-a dangerous way. With lies, mis-statements,and limited information as mcCain and Palin both feel they know better than the voter.The GOP ticket is putting us in a danerous position with the world and our own economy.
It disturbs me that some Americans and news agencies can not distinguish between negative advertising and bringing up valid points about a candidates resume. Senator Obama could stop it all if he would only be truthful and present facts, not more lies, about his past. Lets see an official birth certificate so that the law suit by Mr. Berg goes away. Lets see facts about the money given to Senator Obama by Ayers to use for educational funds and how they were used, even if it was use in ACORN and how. Facts with documents. Not just talk.
I could never believe another word this woman says. She is a liar.
Palin=NASTY !!
The McCain Campaign has lied OVER and OVER AGAIN and they keep getting away with it...what is wrong with you people.Tthe truth is right in front of you. Either you are in denial with the lies from the McCain Campaign or you are basing this election on race and color. If that's the case, you are basically letting McCain get away with these lies and you are voting for an individual who practically cheated to get into the White House. That would be the end of the United States of America.
It's a shame, we have an ethical, intelligent, man of honor who has played a fair race but I guess that is not good enough due to his skin color......you guys are pathetic....
Then....Sarah Palin bascially "lied"! So, how long do we take the lies she is spewing all over the US without some form of clarification? As a U.S. Citizen, I am investigating how I can get a number of signatures and begin a legal process of lies and slander against Sarah Palin and the McCain campaign staff. Anyone out there with me????????
If anyone had asked to delay any deals in Iraq it would be the current administration on behalf of a possible McCain administration.
Obama, quite simply, does not have the power to do such a thing.
Hopefully the American people will not be swayed by lies...it'll be bad for America!
I'M SO SICK OF SARAH PALIN!
I HOPE THIS ELECTION RUINS HER CHANCES FOR REELECT AS GOVERNOR!
Why are ones sources not"vetted" more clearly with todays communications? (Does WMD conjure up anything?) Once something is "out" there it's kinda hard to retract from certain peoples minds. "Obama is an ARAB." (Quoting the lady in the red shirt at the McCain rally.) SO! It's not true, but, why should it be made a difference!? You have good and bad in all types of human beings. There will always be a group of humans others tend to put down due to the fact that THEY need to make THEMSELVES feel better. Stupid says as stupid does. It's sad people won't take the time to filter out the junk and draw decisions like an intelligent person.
Here we go again Sarah Palin shooting her mouth off without knowing the fact caught again in lies, how is Senator McCain going to spin this one . This lady is out off control or shall I say McCains camping is out off control.
The dirty campaigning and lies that McCain/Palin are spreading will one day come back to haunt them. It's just more of the same discredited Bush / republican lying and scheming that we're familiar with from the last 8 years. It's strange to me how they can parade how religious and pious they are when any religious document I've ever read commands against lying and stealing (lying in an attempt to ruin a man's reputation counts as stealing).
Lies eventually expose themselves. The real conflict is wether people choose to believe them or not.
The strongest nation in the world has to get their facts from other nations.
Shame on McCain/ Palin for making us look like fools
That's what happens when you use Bush's campaign team to run for another 8 years.
So goes Bush so goes McCain
McCain and Palin should both be disqualified because of the lies and their constant inciting of violence.
O and Joe '08
AGAIN PALIN LIES, LIES,LIES
SHE IS A DISGRACE TO AMERICAN WOMEN.
Everything out of her mouth is a lie. Obama will win. No one can say that they're doing fine. We can't take 4 more years of the same. God Help us if he doesnt.
Yet another great distraction foiled! McCain has run a horrid campaign. His hate and war mongering combined with is inept leadership re: our economic situation – are putting his campaign to a very sleepy and dishonorable end. Thank goodness! I read somewhere yesterday that McCain had felt guilty and apologized over the Keating Five situation years ago. Then he again felt guilty and apologized for his marriage failure.
He doesn't get another chance THIS TIME – no apologies accepted and he can live with his dishonor.
I personally don't believe the Iraq FM, I think that they are only trying to do whatever to get Barack Hussein Obama elected.
WAKE UP AMERICA! we cannot afford to allow Obama to get elected! We need a person that knows what to do from day one into the presidency and that person is McCain!
I am a Hillary Clinton supporter that is voting for McCain/Palin, for I want someone whos knows how to get us out of the mess that Bush has gotten us into.
McCain/Palin 2008
Hillary Clinton 2012
McCain/Palin: Definition of perpetual lies. It's so sad!
What can America expect from Sarah Palin.
She has been a proven liar. It's not hard to see that she is Supremely unqualified to be in the VP position.
I just wish John McCain would muzzle his PitBull VP Choice.
She does more damage than good.
To steven...the first comment posted, "What else is knew?" Perhaps, you should have your head examined before touting uneducated, political rhetoric.
Valid arguments only exist when both sides, including one's opposition, are presented.
PANTS ON FIRE.....THIS IS BAD PEOPLE THAT IS NOT ALWAYS ON THE COMPUTERS ARE NOT GOING TO FIND THE TRUTH AND THE MEDIA DO NOT TALK ABOUT ALL THE MCSAME PALIN LIES..PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD..HELP TO ELECT BARACK THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE US
This election can't get over soon enough. Then we will see what a great team in Obama/Biden we have.
RIGHT!
And Obama is NOT running for President ( Ops, I mean KING) either!
McSame and Paliar..... will stop at nothing.. I understand that they want to win... but so sacrafice their dignity just to win... is " unrepairable"...................I feel sorry for them...
What is so sad is that John MCbush lost his honor, with the lies,Palin been lost her honor ,How's First dudes former business partner.
We the world love you Obama!!!!more then our own leaders!!!God bless you!!!
I have a very good friend in England who says the europeans are very worried that we will put McCain in the WH.
He and his running mate are trying to make us afraid of the Constitutional Scholar – and that is very scarey.
Palin is the typical republican a liar and a dog. What does this air head know.
Palin lied again. This is normal for her to lie. Look at troopergate. She did abuse her power and continues to lie about. Take a look people. As Gergen says in cnn, the last few weeks of a campaign tells you how the person will govern. I am tired of lies and corruption from the republican party.
Jeez i mean really! What is wrong with the republican ticket they sre so incompetent that it is almost scary.
Same old lies.Same old crap sandwich. Same old McCain. Same old abuse of power Palin. So what else is new?
So, let me get this straight: Either Sarah lied or didn't understand something about foreign policy.
The alarming thing is how not shocking this all is. And are we just going to completely ignore the report that found her to be unethical. For all the talk of who Obama "might" be, there is far too little time spent on who McCain (Keating supporter) and Palin (unethical governor) actually are.
Palin is full of lies! not only this, she ABUSE HER POWER!
And she repeats her lies again and again.
I'm a woman, but I do not want to be represented by this lier!!!
Welcome to the world of political speech. Note how he says "never, ever discouraged us not to sign the agreement"? If Big O asked to "postpone" signing the accord that certainly would qualify, because he didn't ask "not to sign", just asked to delay the signing a bit.
OBAMA , WORKED WITH ,AYERS, IN 1995. AYERS ADVSED,OBAMA, ON ILLEGALS ACTIVITIES IN POLITIC POLICY. OBAMA HAS TAKING ADVICE FROM FORMER EXECUTIVES OF FREDDIE-FANNIE M.. FAILING TO SEE THAT THEY WERE HEADING FOR A MELTDOWN, DID NOT PROPOSED ANY RECUE PLAN TO THE NATION
My friends this is one of the many lies to nowhere.
WOULD SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME TO RELAX.....
THAT THERE ARE NOT THAT MANY RACIST IN THE COUNTRY..
CNN SAID LAST NIGHT OBAMA WILL LOSE 6% OF HIS VOTE BECAUSE OF RACE.
PLEASE SOMEBODY TELL ME IT;S OK..WE WILL WIN NEXT MONTH..
INDIANA FOR OBAMA!!
It makes me wonder if the only people left who support the McPains are those who can't read, can't hear, and have IQs of about 60. Has Palin said anything at all that's true?
You had your 8 years, GOP.
What did you do with it?
Pack up and go home.
Palin will be recorded in history as the biggest joke and the most worthless candidate in human history.
Shame on McCain for this pathetic campaign.
After reading notes drafted by Karl Rove and Co. this woman tends lie without a brink of an eye! . Why can't she just resign? she is incompetent! which makes me wonder about Mcains judgement!. She claims to be a christian but I guess she only a christian on sundays only!. NO good Christian can lie the she does! she is a parthological lier!
I have a very good friend in England who says the europeans are very worried that we will put McCain in the WH.
He and his running mate are trying to make us afraid of the Constitutional Scholar – and that is very scarey.
She should stick to talking about abortion....
More Lies from The Camp of No return!
They have nothing left but lies.
John McCain, can't you see how deep the hole is that you're digging yourself into? No wonder you didn't let Palin talk much. Maybe you need to go back to keeping her hidden.
With all do reaspect..........................Shut up Sarah, i have had it with your baseless lies!!
LIes, lies Sarah..keep telling more lies!!
Anything and I mean anything that the mccain/palin ticket says should
be fact checked before it is reported on because it might not be true.
truth telling is not Mccain or the Washinging Times forte it seems
HOPE PEOPLE ARE GETTING TO KNOW THE REAL PALIN, AND YOU WILL THINK WE AMERICANS WILL THINK VERY CAREFULL. THIS IS SOMEONE KNOWN AS HABITUAL LIER TO BE LISTEN BY OUR ALIES AROUND THE WORLD? I DONT THINK SO. THIS IS TOO RISKY AND DANGERIOUS JUST THINKING ABOUT MCCAIN EVEN WINNING AND SHE WILL BE HEART BEAT AWAY FROM THE PRESIDENT.
NO WAY, NO MCCAIN, NO PALIN BOFFUNS
OBAMA/BIDEN/CLINTON 2008
Can we please fast forward to election day already. I am so ready to get this campaign over with. Nothing good is being accomplished right now. Vicious rhetoric and misleading statements from McCain/Palin and some attacks from Obama's camp that aren't nearly as bad but are not helpful in the long run. Everyone just turn off your TVs and read a book like Obama says. Vote now if you can or set a reminder for Nov 4th and just ignore this mess!! It will keep you happier and more sane!!
mb...
the VP doesnt have the power to fire his/her boss nor the Supreme Justices. Palin did not say she would attempt to overturn Roe v. Wade, nor does she have any record of using her power to influence any law in regards to this issue.
As for the abuse of power, I'd go after any SOB who tasered a child, and go after any SOB that protected him.
Catch me if you can!
News flash: McShame/Failin campaign has lied (again). Is there nothing that this desperate campaign will not do in a vain effort to get the Straight Talk Express back on the track? Answer: no, there is nothing they will not do. Lies, fraud, deception, fear-mongering, inspiration of hatred. These are the hallmarks of the McShame/Failin campaign. America is wise to your tricks. OBAMA/BIDEN are our only hope.
Are we not surprised about the lies? All the more reason to vote for Obama and Biden. Get your early ballets in to help seal the deal.
John McCain has a record of reform.
Why would anyone believe Sen. Obama's promises of change when he has never demonstrated it during his career?
Americans for McCain '08
Obama "never, ever discouraged us not to sign the agreement," Zebari said.
Ummmm...let's see...so he (Obama) ENCOURAGED them NOT to sign the agreement???
Interviewing a bunch of drunks on a merry-go-round, now, CNN???
Palin has real problems with what is ethical. She is not ethical person. An ethical person who truly knows right will automatically do it. Palin and Mccain both struggle with, not only what is morally right but what is ethically right. They allow their followers to hype totally false comments that only a truly ignorant person will say and then say, we should not say those thngs after the ignorant have already spoken. What a set up. What irresponsiblity from adults. What a cheap unethical immoral way to run a cmapaign. And, what ignorant people listen to and sperak the "trash" talk. John
"The statement by Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari refutes a recent published report and a statement by Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin that Obama tried to influence Iraqi politicians negotiating with the United States to score political points."
Just one more instance of the McCain/Palin campaign lying! I sure hope my fellow citizens are paying attention. In the past couple days Palin was found to abuse her power as governor and now this...
What's next?
"That Woman", is a lying sack of you know what. Not only is she unqualified, but she's DANGEROUSLY unqualified. Besides racially tinged comments, she's now meddling irresponsibly into sensitive foreign affairs. Has McCain no shame?
I am a white 54 year old normally voting republican. It is due to the constant LYING, misrepresentations, underhanded politics with no grounded position on anything that matters such as the ECONOMY, that I am NOT voting for John McCain. He has singled handedly destroyed the Repuplican Party with his poor judgements and bad decisions aligning himself with lobbists and iddiots i.e. a woman that has no business being governor, let alone vice president or President of the United States. He could of piced any other woman lawmaker or probably just about any other woman that is not a lawmaker and done better. He blows with the wind.
Keep lying Palin / McCain. There are these things called computers that have fact checker sites on them. Most people know how to use them.
McCain, you ought to be checking your girl's speeches. She's a viscious liar and a racist. This has gone beyond the pale. You should send Moosie home with her filthy resume of misdeeds, and mean-spirited actions. I understand what is a fair fight, but she's inciting people to hurt each other. She REALLY makes you look reckless and like a rookie, and as a "Christian Woman" (whatever her own brand of it she practices) she is dispicable. One lie leads to another. I would never vote for the two of you. I would leave the country if you both were elected. Perfectly pathetic, McCain. And starting out, I had so much respect for you. WHAT HAPPENED, MAN??
i just heard mccain supporters say on tv that they need to hammer obama harder on his credibility. rick davis is a mean evil looking grump himself so i hope they do continue the spews of evil. it only makes all of them at this point look like total idiots. none of mccainscampaign can accept that they are cluless and have no platform to run on. they DO think the american people are dumb!.
the joke is on them however because we have come together as one nation to elect the best candidate for office and that is barak obama.
It would be one thing that this is the first time mccains campaign has lied, but they have constantly lied since they brought palin into this campaign on a bunch of lies and half truths. Is this really how mccain wants his last campaign to be presented in the history books?
It seems like the Vendetta Governor is telling another Lie.
he did ask, i was there, he's covering up because barack hussien obama has struck a deal with the terrorists to give them control of the mideast
mb said: "Before the media write anything the palin/mccain camp says. They should double check it, to keep them (the media) from looking uncreditable."
I would add, journalists of all kinds should start acting like journalists, checking the content of all stories, so that they don't look stupid, gullible, and biased.
I truly think Rusty Nail (John McCain) and Candi Cane (Sarah Palin) are doing their very best to loose this election with accusations like this. No substance is all I can about her comments. She says whatever the McCain advisers tell her to say and then her comments are either wacky or just plain stupid. She can't even defend any of that stuff she blurts out. I think they ought to make a hand puppet of her and sell it for Christmas.
She's a hockey mom!
She's a reformer!
She's Joe Six Pack!
She's an energy expert!
She's a barracuda!
She's full of MALARKEY! (Thanks Joe Biden for letting me borrow your favorite phrase!)
Drama queen is full of drama.
Maybe Sarah should stop reading now.
Palin is an example of all that is wrong with the world. Anyone with an ounce of intelligence would NEVER consider putting her in the position of being a heartbeat away from the presidency. THE STUPIDITY OF PALIN/MCCAIN NEEDS TO STOP. They are turning the US into a JOKE. A VERY BAD, SICK JOKE. Obama can bring back respect and intelligent dimplomacy.
OBAMA/BIDEN 08
SARA THE LIER IS DEMONSTRATING HER ABILITY TO LIE AGAIN AGAIN.
I am a Christian, I pray everyday that we don't get Sara Palin as our VP and a heatbeat away from presidency.
"The Washington Times reported Friday that in June, Obama told Iraqi leaders in Baghdad that an agreement between the United States and the leaders to allow U.S. troops to stay in the country after 2008 should not go into effect unless it had congressional approval. "
see? i told you he did ask to to delay it!
So Palin has now been proven to be a liar point blank. What does that tell you she and her colleague, McCain, will do once in office? Hasn't her own state found her guilty of abuse in office? Anyone with sense, anyone with a clear conscience, anyone who reads and investigates the issues knows Obama is the best candidate. But willfully ignorant people who do not ever admit to being wrong will not support him because he is African-American, pure and simple. States like Ohio who suffer greatly because they elected Bush to his second term and he did nothing for them still cannot give Obama the decisive nod he deserves. Why? Because race is more important to many than competence! If you voted for Bush in 2000 and 2004, shouldn't you rethink your thinking? Or maybe just keep quiet!
No weapon formed against Obama shall prosper.
I feel sorry for the Mccain/Palin. They can't even be clear with the american people now.
I'm waiting any day now for the announcement from CNN that Obama is walking on water...I read this site daily and I have yet to see any negative reporting on Obama...but boy do you have plenty to say about McCain....Is he really this good!?
WHATS KEPT IN THE DARK WILL COME TO LIGHT
If I was a Republican, it would be hard fpr me to support this ticket. You have my sympathy.
The last two national elections hinged on guns, gays and God. We can add another "G" to this national election: GUESS which ad is fact or fiction?
And yet another Republican lie is blind-sided by the truth.
Dontcha just hate it when that happens, Sarah?
John McCain is an honorable man running a dishonorable campaign of lies and distortions on Obama. I hope to God this does not work! I hope Obama.Biden win this year, God knows we need it!
Palin isn't saying these things. Its McCain's campaign people that are. Palin can't think for herself (which is just as bad). I look forward to the end of this election so we can all move on from these pathetic smears.
its over
Obama Biden have won
McCain has blew it!
listen to you heart, Bush has vetoed all Dem bills over the past two years. First six years were owned by the Bush admin & Congress GOP. Bush Vetoed Nothing! This is why we are where we are.
People are awakening to this stagnant thought that has hovered for the last 8 years.
Sorry to Say but this Election just about to start a WAR between the Whites and Blacks. All of a sudden the blacks are stating that if whites don't vote for OBAMA then the Whites are Racist WOW. Then if the Blacks don't vote for Whites it is not Racist Wow. Listen All I know is that the Majority of the Puerto Rican Nation all throughtout the East Coast will vote for McCain. Thats is a Fact. Here in the Bronx, where there is a Majority of the Puertorican they are going to McCain and that is a fact. They were ALL going for Hillary but Hillary cannot convince the Puerto Rican to vote for OBAMA no they Won't. Hate to say but many Latinos will go to McCain just wait and See. Come Nov you will see the Shock that McCain will win PA, WI, and MN, OH, FA, and that is VICTORY to McCain.
Puertorican, Mexican, Cuban, Colombian, Trust me they are going to McCain!!
Latinos for McCain!!!!!!!!
Reporters will check their facts about local accidents but not about something like this?
Interesting
Here are more facts. Other electoral maps have shown Virginia Leaning Obama for many days. Why isn’t CNN showing this on their electoral map?
Here are the polls numbers below:
Poll Date Obama McCain Spread
FOX News/Rasmussen 10/05 50 48 Obama +2
SurveyUSA 10/05 53 43 Obama +10
Suffolk 10/05 51 39 Obama +12
Mason-Dixon 10/05 45 48 McCain +3
CNN/Time 09/30 53 44 Obama +9
InAdv/PollPosition 09/29 51 45 Obama +6
RCP Average 09/28 – 10/07 50.6 44.3 Obama +6.3
Can't we VOTE Palin/McCain OFF THE ISLAND????
Who told her to say that..
Oh, come on. She probably winked and scrunched up her nose real cute-like when she told the lie. She's such a scamp.
How many lies does this "Christian" woman have in her? I thought lying was a sin.
anything goes politics. not suprising.
there really isn't anything mccain/pailn can do to win my vote back. their negativity, inablility to focus on our current crisis and clear propencity to lie and encourage hate has sealed the deal.
get the facts... you'll see Obama/Biden is the logical choice for 08
Anyone who tells his supporters...to go out and 'get in their face'
isn't who we need.
It is time the media looked at its behavior in this campaign. It will present anything said by candidates without question. It is a party to the recent McCain mob scenes. It wants a "battle" a "horserace" a "wara'. It is culpable and should develop a policy of not being used just to fill air time. McCain has started to bring this country down. He and Sara would destroy it to be elected. Mr.I was a prisoner and can do no wrong as a result, plays well with a non questioning media, and attacks when questions are raised. Even now McCain/ Palin hate is presented daily. In addition you have started to raise race in the campaign. Come on. Wake up. You don't have to excuse this type of behavior and try to find something bad to say about Obama to "be ballanced".
Oh my God, I experienced some harsh campaigns back here in "good old Germany" but what I have heard and read in the course of this campaign beats everything by far.
McCain`s so called "closing argument" which will push your great country much deeper into division is the most stupid thing I ever heard.
All this is an insult for any citizen with a remaining rest of intelligence.
Latinos for McCain don't listen to all those polls, pundits, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC they are all lying. The hispanic here in NY will go to McCain!!! Trust me on that.
McCain/Palin08
Now are any of you actually surprised that Sarah Palin and John McCAin are once again lying their pants off!!! Wow someone actually needs to call them out on this during the debate on Wed.
What a shocker! Another McCain/Palin lie! 23 days and counting until we can clear the airwaves of their pathetic campaign. We can't be rid of them soon enough!
Palin is just lying too much to divert atttention away from troopergate... American people are smart enough to discover all the lies this lady is bringing...
Shame on you toopergate
Stop the lies...No McSame or Troopergate
Ok look, let me apologize to Sarah Palin. She is not an iddiot but she is simply not qualified to be vice president or president of the United States. I respect her as a mother and her family for the good they have done and doing for others and her family's support for our country. The fact that she has a son in the military says a lot about the goodness of her family.
Isn't it interesting how the Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari uses the words "never, ever" as to so adamantly deny that Obama ever asked such a thing, as if to say he soooo favors Obama to become president. Why would the Iraqi FM want Obama as pres of US?
I do declare the truth just isn't in McCain, Palin or anybody connected to their campaign. I have never seen anything like it. If their lips are moving you know they are lying. I think all the dishonesty has caught up with them. They are not fit to help run our country. That old white haired man needs to go to the house and the ugly one needs to hide out in her igloo...Doraine in Texas
Wow! This is getting out of hand. I thought Barack didn't even have any concerns about IRAQ. Let the McCain camp tell it. But now he is trying to influence a key piece of negotiation.
Why does that surprise you? It seems you can't be considered a politician in America if you don,t know how to lie.
Sarah Phaney is a phony, lying hypocrite.
Just like Dick.
By the way...get out of my face!
Obama's a bigger liar than McCain!
Stop trying to distract intelligent people for voting in the Best: Obama/Biden
PALIN IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS TO THE U.S. THIS WOMAN IS DANGEROUS INTERNATIONALLY. GOSSIP LIKE THIS IS WHAT GOT US IN THE IRAQ WAR IN THE FIRST PLACE, GOSSIP WHICH PROVED WRONG. MCCAIN AND PALIN ARE UNFIT TO LEAD OUR NATION.
Sarah should start her Chrismas shopping. Soon she will be back in Alaska.
Why are we even wasting our time mentioning or discrediting a story broken/fabricated by the Washington Times. Everyone knows that they are founded and run by a far-right cult (Sun Myung Moon and the Unification Church). Don't believe me? Look it up...
wow she is unbelievable. Please tell her to stop talking!
And Mrs. Palin calls herself a Christian? hypocrite!!!
They write Palin read. Period. This woman is a disgrace to higher Politics. The Media love it, it's nothing but fodder coverage to them.
This country definately don't need "Mavericks" in the White House right now. Palin is already lying to you, she's showing her true character.
Liers being replaced with liers will be this country's demise.
Is there such a thing as a "lying reformer"?
Geesh! The "Mavericks" tout reform....but their whole campaign is based on lies. McCain promised to run a decent and honorable campaign. These two have no credibility left. Honestly, why do voters support them?
To Patriot:
1) You don't have a clue regarding what a patriot is – it's just an attempt to make your inane comment seem somehow credible. [Now that’s PATHETIC!]
2) Everyone in the world is watching the political scene – except those people worshiping Obama and those with a negative IQ – KNOW that MOST of the SIGNIFICANT DECISIONS that are going to be made in the area of WORLD AFFAIRS are ON HOLD until the world sees who America's next KING will be.
3) It's just a FACT that no DIPLOMAT is going to come out and say it, especially since Obama said it would NOT be a wise thing to put out there.
4) Samir Sumaidaie is but ONE person in the Iraqi leadership, a minor one at that, who, like most Arabs, is towing the Obama line because he is one of their own...
Patriot... Grow a brain and then learn how to use it!
It won't stop Palin and McCain from continuously using this until the election, you betcha
The Mccain/Palin can'nt not be trusted!! Sarah Palin Lies she Lied about Obama "Pals around with Terrioists to rally her Republican base. Sarah Palin was found GUILTY OF ABUSED OF POWER!!! how can anyone trust Republicans!!!! Mccain/Palin will take this bad behavior to the White House along with Lies and corruptions we the people are tied of this!!! We must vote Obama/Biden
Palin has a very long record of not reading entire documents and had a behind the scenes nick name of "Bullit Point Sarah" as it is well known she is not a fan of reading documents from start to finish.You would think a VP candidate would not get her facts from news papers without getting solid back up facts before speaking to America about a news papers views and stories.Yeah thats good experience .Hard to believe Hockey fans would boo her for all her lies and hate last week
WHERE ARE ALL THE MCCAIN/PALIN SUPPORTERS HIDING? Your'e not ashamed of your candidates like everyone else is, are you?
I swear, if Obama doesn't win after all the crap and hypocrisy that is the McCain/Palin ticket, it will prove that racism is still all too prevalent in America – and I am a white guy saying this.
I don't know how anyone can take Palin seriously and as a result trust McCain.
Maybe if McCain stuck to his guns and chose Lieberman, he would be able to win swing voters, but as of now, I think he will be lucky if he wins Utah.
Sarah Palin is fostering hatred, racism & lies. Which reminds the inviornment in Germany between WW 1 & 2 with terrible economic situation like present happening in USA & gobally. We are now in two wars with bad economic situation. I worried that this kind hatred, racism & lies may help the rise of facism. This must be stopped.
AMERICA WILL NOT GO FOR THE LIES!!!OBAMA BIDEN. THE 1 PERCENT JUMP IS THE 1% WHO ARE NOT INFORMED & BELIEVE THE LIES. IT'S ALMOST OVER. McCAIN PALIN ARE JUST ABOUT DONE!!!!!
good ole pitbull Sarah continues to exemplify to all people with a thinking conscience her utter inability to govern anything on a national or international level. It was obvious why she was chosen, and it is increasingly clear that her real talent lies in riling up hostile reactions from an uninformed audience who appear to read as little as her.
Obama/Biden 08
Phillys booing Palin: priceless! And well deserved.
Well there you go. The McCainiacs distorting reality yet again.
Go Obama!
Well let me see here. Palin was cited in a state investigators report for abuse of power and a violation of state ethics law. The McCain campaign puts out another LIE about Obama.
Who is it that America should REALLY TRUST?
McCain I used to respect you, but you have let your blind ambition to be President take away any respect I had for you.
Obama/Biden '08!!!
When are we going to here the truth from Palin. It's becoming a mockery to Christians.
I think this whole McCain/Palin think is a scam. My fellow Americans this is the time we should stand strong, this is the time we should unite and when we choose, we should choose the write candidate. Lets look at the so called McCain/Palin whatever, anytime they open their mouth to talk I feel sorry for all Americans. It is a shame. Sarah you are just a ............ why cant you go back and be a mother that might help you in the race to free a child that will be a man and flew in search of a life.
When issomeone going to call PALIN on the carpet for all this lyning.
Maverick...I think not.
IT DOESN'T MATTER!!!!! The truth is- Obummer and friends will lead us into Socialism with their programs. Give the McCain Presidency a chance. McCain is not a died-in-the-wool Republican, nor a Democrat-Socialist. Vote McCain!!!!
If I had a nickel for every lie they have been caught in...
Why do I comment on these things if CNN is not going to post them? I've read the policies and nothing I write about is as bad as some of the other things on here. I know that everything cannot be posted, but, out of about 20 these past few days I only got one? Is it a prerequisite to have a low IQ in order to be posted or just that you have to be mad and HOLLER!? How about something a little more balanced everyone can read?
Wow, what a surprise, the McCain and Palin camp LIES AGAIN.
If McCain and Palin win will because they lied to the American people and there were too many naive people who had the wool pulled over their eyes.
McCain and Palin are dishonorable, plain and simple.
McCain is right. The American people deserve a candidate that will tell them the truth. Please send Palin back home to answer her ethical dilemma and help out your downballot candidates.
Johnny you're done.
Just more of Obama's CHANGE, he keeps changing his tune when called out on any issue. What a leader that will make for us.
Yet another lie. So many silly lies that can be easily verified. But then when there are folks who think Obama is an Arab.. maybe it pays to lie.
it's sad the American people believe in fear rather than hope. They believe lies rather than the reality. The nation is no longer strong and honest anymore because too many people here live in denial. I can't believe people are so forgiving for a liar like Palin.
John McCain and his running mate are single-handedly bringing down the Republican Party. I have mixed feelings about the demise of our 2-party system, which is supposed to help keep elected officials honest. But they have turned the system on itself to suit their own political ambitions. When McCain faced that ignorant woman at his rally two days ago who said she couldn't trust Obama because he was an "Arab," McCain had finally come face-to-face with a monster of his own making. At that point, it was already too late for him to start toning down the rhetoric. When he loses this election by an inevitable landslide, I wonder what he'll say in his concession speech to try to repair his greatly damaged reputation.
McCain/Palin campaign – the straight LIE express. It is a shame that Sen. McCain has stooped that low by resorting to lies and smears. Sen McCain used to be an honorable man; now its anything goes for him. He will say anything and do anything (including fanning the flame of hatred and racism) to win what he considers as his entitlement.
Her campaign of lies last week was based on reading parts from newspapers.Excellent judgement for someone who is a heartbeat away from Presdiency if McCain was to win.Nice vetting McCain.Way to put "Country First" while picking a candidate that puts gossip first.
Another day, another lie. Will this ever end.
Palin talks hate- all the time! McCain talks hate- most of the time!
It will help McCain only with the most radical Americans
who have serious unrealistic conspiracy theories to begin with!
More lies from the ticket that has nothing else to offer.
The more they try to grasp at straws the deeper they sink.
OBAMA/BIDEN '08!
It is a shame that McCain/Palin ticket lying is causing foreign officials to have to refute her statements. If McCain/Palin is elected no one will ever have faith in any statements regarding foreign policy made by the US Administration.
Americans do not wish to be percieved as a Nation of Liars
Vote Obama/Biden 08
The nation has had 102 major-party tickets covering 51 presidential elections over more than two centuries. And we've never had a ticket in which both candidates on the same ticket were responsible for ethics violations before a national election. McCain/Palin is the first.
It makes the whole "reform" pitch a little more difficult, doesn't it?
this is typical of the republicans and john mcsame: say anything, do anything, lie their behinds off and putting country last to win an election!
john mcsame have zero credibility from here on out – this man is the same as george bush!!!!
Media should not publish any stories from McCain/Palin until they are proven to be true...Why is the media creating all this unnecessary drama at times like this? Isnt the media's job to publish the truth and let people decide for themselves? I guess these days it's a matter of who will sale more stories despite the fact most of them might not be true. I suggest to the media not to publish any story unless it has been proven to be true! we dont need drama, all we ask for is the truth.
Zebari is one of the least trustworthy people in Middle-Eastern politics. If Obama made an under-the-table agreement, of course Zebari is going to deny it.
Obama/Biden: Each voted twie for the "bridge to nowhere"
Well, I will be supporting Obama. McSame should kic Palin if he has any brain cells left.
Talking about Iraq. Iraq should not even be the subject of discussion. The Iraqi scientist living in Germany whome the US claimed as credible source for WMD stated that the US never talked to him. Everyone in approving and pushing the Iraq war should be publicly hanged. Unless we resort to some drastic measures, politicians and CEO' will continue to squander our money. I am sick of this rotten and corrupt country. Palin and the abuse of power issue, 20 years prison and hard labor in Anwar.
McCain And Palin are just liers there tryingg too make the United States racecis against obama i hatee themm !!!!
For McCain/ Palin, desperate moment requires desperate acts, and the campaign would do and say anything at this point to overcome the political deficit the campaign accumulated with their confused and erractic messages. John McCain, who I admire when he an in 2000, has become a cynical and out of touch from the demand of the American public. Truth be told, at 72, McCain does not have it anymore. He has done for the country, he deserves a peaceful and fulfilling retirement.
THIS WAS DELIBERTLY MISREPRESENTED BY MCCAIN AND PALIN, MORE LIES, MORE DECEPTION. VOTE OBAMA-BIDEN
Well atleast McCain have several cards to play. All Obama, Lewis, and democrats got is the race card. it's been played so much it's old. Luckily, I'm a minority so the guilt trip don't work on me, lol.
What is this woman doing? Before she was the VP pick she was singing Obama's praises. It's so amazing to see how quickly she is willing to do and say absolutely anything to win this race. She and the McCain campaign know these are flat out lies, yet they are continuously spitting them out. This is indicative of the type of presidency we will have under McCain. If you have to lie and cheat your way into the white house then you shouldn't be there. Just look at George Bush, he lied and cheated his way in and look at the state of our country. Please America, don't be fooled again. Our future rests in the hands of each president we choose to lead us. We chose wrong the last time. Let's not do this to ourselves again.
That lying on the part of McCain, and, especially Palin has got to stop.
Who are they being controlled by? It only makes them look like puppets dangling at the end of strings. Who are those puppeteers running the Republican campaign?
McCain and Palin need to be more selective and discriminating as to what they are spouting. No more lies, false attacks, distractions etc.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
When is someone going to call out McCain on the Honor Code and conduct umbecoming? Isn't it enough that he lied to Letterman about where he was and what he was doing?
Obama/Biden, Please put the nails in the McCain/Palin coffen. It's obvious McCain/Palin will do anything to win the White House! McCain, Where's the honor!
The problem with Palin is that she has NO knowledge of Foreign Affairs and simply relies on her "RNC Approved Staff" to provide her with talking points. Can you imagine what this could all be like if she and McCain actually got elected and networks and agencies weren't fact checking anything?
We'd have George Bush....again...
Another lie by the person who abuses her power.
Obama/Biden
All this lies and mispresentation of Obama will come to and end on nov 4th.
Obama/biden 08
The Republicans are making stuff up? Not the Republicans! Oh yes the Republicans, remember they are the ones that made up the joke that Palin is qualified, too funny, ha ha ha.
I am so appaled at Sara Palin – her lies are showing, yet she continues on with lie after lie...stirring up hate filled mobs to the point of hysteria.
The republicans better step up and stop her, and McCain, from their lies and deceit.
Palin will start an all out war before this campaign is over!!!
As Obama stated during the 2nd Debate:
The Straight talk express has lost a wheel !!!!
I would further that sentiment by saying, the straight talk express has derailed...
One more lie from the crooked talk express!
Do they really think they can continue to spout this nonsense and not have it backfire?
Or maybe they think enough people are as moronic as the "Obama is an Arab" idiot.
Sarah Palin is a perfect study in contrast: absolutely beautiful on the outside and totally ugly on the inside.
So yet, another lie from the lips of Sarah Palin.
. Why am I not surprised?
I can't believe people are falling for her lies... and I can't wait until THAT ONE goes back to Alaska, for good.
Obama-Biden need to carry a lot of states and a lot of 2004 red states to show this country and all other countries that Americans knew that the Bush administration was trash and we're all making a real change.
MCCAIN-PALIN campaign race will go down in American MINDS and the History BOOKS as being the most despicable, desperate, divisive,
racist, ever, ever, run, which incited possible riots and hate thru America. And this is America, my friends! The authors
cannot wait to write about the atrocities committed by the Republicans
against their fellow Americans!!!! The ink may begin to dry the day after
OBAMA WINS!. In writing, we will be able to read about the injustices committed within the Republican "REGIME". under Bush!
McPain, ENOUGH! You two lie so much you are NOT worthy of being Christians.
There is a MUCH larger issue than this report…
And that is with Governor Palin as a potential Vice President ..she's just not that smart. No, offense it's just the truth. What other reason would the McCain campaign have for not ALLOWING her to do ANY more interviews without Senator McCain at her side??
THE REASON IS CLEAR.
Because she is not qualified and you can REALLY tell when you ask her questions that require spontaneous answers other than remembered talking points.
I ask you members of the Republican party..Do you REALLY want this type of person in the White House?? The last person we elected that was of average intelligence was….
George W Bush and look at the mess the world is in from that election!!
WHEN is she going to do interviews on CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC. How in the world are we allowing this woman to run for this office without going on the Sunday morning interview process??
LETS NOT LOWER THE BAR JUST BECAUSE IT'S A WOMAN (HILLARY HAD TO GO THROUGH THE PROCESS AND DID VERY WELL NO MATTER WHAT STATION SHE WAS ON)…
DEMAND MORE INTERVIEWS ON OTHER STATIONS..FOX ALONE DOES NOT CUT IT!!!
thank you cnn for fact checking. please shine lights to disinfect what is not truth.
I read that in washington times... i knew it was crap. It's like some hiredhacks writes a smear piece just for Palin, Hannity and Rush to blather about.
How can anyone trust anything that comes out of Palin's mouth. It's lie after lie with her.
Another day, another Palin lie, and yet another McCain "economic plan"...
The Mccain campaign in one word: Erratic!
Palin caught in another lie.
I USED TO THINK THAT AMERICANS ARE THE MOST HONEST PEOPLE ON EARTH, BUT NOW I AM REALLY SURPRISED AT THE KIND OF POLITICS AMEERICANS ARE PLAYING THIS TIME AROUND. I BELIEVE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE GOOD JUDGMENT THEMSELVES EVEN WITHOUT SOMEONE LYING TO THEM?
ANYTHING coming from McCain-Palin campaign at this point should be admonished as lies.
Please, McCain, NO MORE BAG OF TRICKS!.Consider you and Palin,
done, like, cooked!
WHY DON'T YOU CNN EVER POST ANY OF MY COMMENTS? IS IT BEFORE THEY ARE INTELLIGENT AND APPEAL TO THE INTELECT?
Bush lied to you folks, now McSame and Palin are lying as well, very scary ticket. Fear, fear and more fear, that's the way you do it!! Do not moderate this message, please.
There we go again , Sarah Palin with her lies being once again debunked . Instead of her identifying herself as a hockey mom who`s only difference from a pitbull is lipstick , she more resembles a Dick Cheney , with push up bra , high heels , and Lipstick !!!!
Sarah , take Todd , and your dysfunctual family back to Moose- Head Alaska , or wherever the " heck " you come from , we`ve had eight years of lies , deceit , treason , ( Scooter Libby , Plame – Gate ) and now your lies , as confirmed also by " Trooper – Gate )
You are not what this country needs , we need unity , not devision .....
Obama is trying to hoodwink and bamboozle us.
Despicable campaign from a once honorable man.
Palin will be fine and go back to being a nobody governor of a tiny state but McCain has lost the respect of millions around the U.S. and, in doing so, his legacy. Desperation is an ugly, ugly undoing.
Wow, with winners like Steven and the rest of the bozos on this string, it's easy to see where Obama would "lead" us. Guess what, folks? You think the Iraqis wouldn't rather see a weak-kneed liberal in the Oval Office instead of stalwart defenders of our strength, freedom and national interests? If you had a shred of geopolitical savvy, you never want to leave Iraq ... but sadly, you simply throw tiny pebbles like whiny girls instead of understanding complex, multifaceted, long-range national strategy. Which is why you should lose this race. And if by some reason you fools succeed in electing Mr. Hussein Obama (why, oh why does that middle name offend and/or scare you? It's a fact, not a "lie"), we'll regroup for 2012 while watching you hand us a failed four-year tenure on a silver platter.
Stick to your abortion rhetoric, Sarah. The only thing left you have is to energize your base. You've become irrelevant to everyone else.
Sarah should be called upon about her remarks. she should be enquired about her statement. It is about time that all media should stop covering her campaign if she is not accessible by the media. Period!
It seems McCain and Sarah is doing the same harm that the 'Bush' man has done to the Republican party. This is to all loyal & decent Republicans: the campaign is foregone. The white house belongs to the democrats. But plz revitalize the Republican party with the right kind of Leadership. Let some intelligence prevail. Do away with the hypocritcal 'family value' advertiser, gun toting hockey mom from the party of Ronald Reagan!
On what basis do you believe McCain/Palin will win? Anything can happen between now and Nov 4... Is there some policy or position that will turn things around? This is a serious question, as I would like to understand where you are coming from. All hyperbole aside. What factors will drive a mc cain win?
Why are Obama supporters so mean?
Why don't someone call them on their lies, I can't stand McCain-Palin, their time is coming soon, You reap what you sow.
We need a Veteran for President.He has served his country;has chosen a true Christian to be his VP.He has the expeience that is needed;would show no partiality to certain races.Vote for McCain;Palin.
OBAMA/BIDEN OBAMA/BIDEN OBAMA/BIDEN
Just kidding, I would never vote for Obama because he can't be trusted. I thought I'd try disguising my post because CNN only wants to pick the Obama praisers. He is connected with Ayers, Acorn, and now we are posting a story that gives a foreign leader more credibility then a U.S. governer. Oh because an Iraq foreign minister says so, it definately has to be true. CNN sucks.
OBAMA/BIDEN OBAMA/BIDEN OBAMA/BIDEN

Mcsame\ sarah fading,
I don't go to the movies much, but I will go to the movies to see
Oliver Stone's movie, "W" opening on October 17. and I will watch
Obama's 1/2 hour "paid for" speech to the American people the
minute it hits the air. As far as the last "debate", I will watch it to
hear more lies by McCain! in one last ditch effort to win your vote by
lying.
What a surprise...another Palin lie....why so silent on her breach of ethics??
How much of her convention speech has been proven false as well as her inflammatory inaccurate comments since?
How can this person claim she will be able to work in a bipartisan way in Congress and have any credibility internationally??
Palin could not have lied! That would be unethical and immoral! She is a devote Christian with firm Christian values!
We need a Veteran for President.He has served his country;has chosen a true Christian to be his VP.He has the expeience that is needed;would show no partiality to certain races.Vote for McCain;Palin.This is not a duplicate comment.You are showing partiality to Obama comments.
When somebody will ask Mc Insane and his misstres abaut all lies. It is enough of making things look the same in both campains by telling generaly there are negative adds. What McInsane is doing is nasty and evoking hatred .It is dangerous and devisive. It is very different because is built on lies about Obama. Even other day when he pretendet to corect voter who was telling that Obama ia Arab HE REPLAID HE IS DCENT FAMILY MAN HE DID NOT SAY HE IS NOT ARAB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It seems that he pretend not to know that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If he doesn't he IS SHOWING HOW LITLLE HE IS IN TOUCH WITH REALITY, or if he does than is clear racisam at play!!!!!!!!!! Either one we do not need now!!!!!
I don't think Palin cares if she spouts truth or lies. It's the sting from her words that catch on to people.
This Palin woman is willing to say anything that is put in front of her. Her lack of honesty is so obvious, how can the republican base be so infatuated with such a shallow human being?
Delay Security agreement or not, John McCain will lose the election.
At this time McCain is just fighting a losing battle with HIMSELF and not with the Obama camp. He should not lose his dignity in the process. Frankly, he is looking pretty pathetic right now.
We know Sarah Palin has no shame. However, for John McCain to retain some of his political self respect, he should advice Ms. Palin to just "shut up" and not make a bad situation worse. He should go ahead and fire the person that gave him the whole Sarah Palin idea – Just to make statement.
I agree with the bold statement below
She lies! What's new! This is just disgraceful that a VP candidate is reduced to smearing and lying. Ms. Laxalt said it best that the GOP should be ashamed of using her in this way, but I know they are not. Just sad!
Talk about lies, how about Obama saying he could not disown his grandmother any more than he could dis-own Jeremaih Wright. Then he left the church. He will do anything for politics, when will take a stand.
Accepting the message of change,We voted for change in 2006, we got it ,the do nothing Congress. The economy was growing in leaps and bounds, going from 2001 until the beginning of 2007. Voting for change again, not again!
Whether she is lying or not can you imagine a person with her poor social graces to be involved in significant contacts with the leaders of other nations. As they saying goes, "They would have herf for lunch!!"
Another one...wow, when would they stop...
Obama has played a decent , truthful race throughout this election. He has shown us his strength, with all the lies and words thrown out at him....may god bless you always and keep you save.
If you guys still consider voting for McCain, you are agreeing that it is ok to lie and cheat to get into the White House and to let them continue doing so over and over again.
We need to put a stop to this and that is vote for Obama/Biden, the truthful candidate!
Maybe the iraqui radio is a more reliable news source than CNN.
My pro-McCain comments get "mysteriously" lost in space... what a crock.
Ask yourself: why are foreign governments so pro-Obama? Look at Obama's past ties to the middle east. A president has to look out for the US first–not be personally indebted to the middle east. Scary stuff and people don't care or want to know the truth.
surprise, more lies from the republican ticket. i havnt heard one true accusation come from Mcsame / Palin yet.
what worse that thier lies is their voter base. has anybody seen video of thier rallies? its noting but racial slurs and hate speech, im surprised they're not burning crosses right their at the speeches. and when mccain tries to settle them down they boo him!!!!
Wow, Palin lied again...big surprise...
So much to be proud of, Republicans. So much...
You believe everything Obama says, and everything the media promotes him to be. Rather a lemming mentality I would say. You cannot ignore the mounting evidence that he is a demogogue and an talented orator but an empty suit nonetheless. Acorn ties as lawyer, lobbyist and community organizer; no vote or action only speeches on Iraq; questionable backing and promotion throughout he career – Rezko, Ayers, Wright and so on; running slick campaigns his only real accomplishment. If his candidacy achieves success off the back of a now nationalized economy, the we are in trouble. In light of his other activities am inclined to believe he very well may have tried to influence a delay in the Iraq timeline. His any means to an end philosophy defeated Hillary.
an AMERICAN CHRISTIAN INTELLIGENT and with MORAL VALUES will be elected PRESIDENT OF THIS UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA………BARACK HUSEIN OBAMA !!
THE REAL DEAL !!! !!! !!!
pitiful old warmonger and secessionist palin......it had to be the Honorable Iraqi Foreign Minister to call you on your BLATANT LIES.....what do you say now? you broke the law and still ranting and raving....why don't you go back to your family in Alaska ?.....did you like the treatment the fans gave you in Good Old Philly? it should give you a clue...
My wife and I are long time republicans, but with the lies McCain and Palin are telling, we cannot vote from them. So take 2 Florida votes away from McCain as of today.
Why does the modern day pharisees' party, continue to spew lies. The gov. of Alaska should be ashamed of herself for allowing the repubs, to use her in a propaganda campaign to discredit the Sen.Obama, and to insight riot invoking comments from their supporters. I thought that stating to kill someone (especially a presidential candidate) was against the law to some extent. How could any law abiding candidate not chastize the people who were shouting horrible things about the democratic party candidates. The modern day pharisees or republicans, should be ashamed of themselves for allowing such display of blatant discrimanating anger. For the gov. of Alaska to say that Senator Obama has been palling around with a domestic terrorist is not only a lie, it is her mean attempt to cause doubt about this man's patriotism, his ethics, his intelligence and his honor. She is a dangerous woman, because she seems to not care about the consequence of her statements, she only cares about taking the spot light off the presidential and vice presidential inability to come up with working solutions for the economic situation we are in.
Sarah Palin took her misinformation from the Washington Times owned by none other than Sun Myung Moon. Does it surprise you? Let McCain/Palin keep spewing that nonsense, it's all they've got left.
Palin needs to stop her rallies that are having the world laugh at the USA. The hate and rage she has developed by these spectators is dangerous to our security and unamerican. She is moraly corrupt and is inciting rage and ingorance. This is a christian woman? No this is not christian behavior.
Geez.
CONservatives really are con-men.
Palin is a puppet and is really a bad choice for McCain and the United States....after this election they should impeech her.
wow, I'm just astonished at this woman's inability to get the facts straight and the outright hatred she displays towards Obama. Say it ain't so Palin! Now Fox wants to air a whole documentary to discredit Obama and create more fear about him. I'm thoroughly disgusted over all of this crap.
Why did The Washington Times run this story without checking their sources? They report about a conversation between Zebari and Obama, and yet they don't bother to ask Zebari for clarification prior to printing. So their big game-changing story becomes a non-event based on poor journalism. But not before Palin has used it as fodder in her stump speeches, and hundreds of angry bloggers have declared Obama is a traitor.
Anybody who actually follows the lack of governmental unity-stability in Iraq would know that this is another Palin BS. But then she's neglected the needs of HER National Guard which in fact the VFA has documented as the worst in the nation.
She plays fantasy games of the worst kind.
CNN, maybe you should change the status of your "fact check" that said this issue "in dispute". Why do you continue to give credence to stories that are not true? Why have you not talked about the thousands of voters being purged from the system instead of talking about stupid ACORN? Dead people on fake registrations can't vote. I think people need to know if they have been disenfranchised because of voter suppression. Give us news that matter to us!!!!
Will the MSM hold Palin accountable for the falsehoods she is feeding the American public? Will a journalist ask her to apologize to the american people for lying to them? let's see if that will happen.
I feel sorry for poor Hoshyar Zebari.
Guy is minding his own business, you know doing something like oh...dealing with being the Foreign Minister of Iraq...and all of a sudden he gets a phone call from CNN. Poor guy.
I would like Sarah Palin to *pronounce this man's name*. I would pay money for that.
I don't care how much they lie or abuse power. I don't care if they drive this economy into the ground and start 10 more wars. I just don't want to see Obama in the white house. He may have spent his life helping people find jobs, get off welfare and teaching constitutional law but still I don't think America is ready for a black President. Someone will kill him and that will put more shame on this great country. Most people in America now adays ain't racist, but I am.
