Good grief, Topix Moderators, can't you cut down on the spamming here? It gets really old.

This is something I had been hoping Obama would do. One final clobbering of McPalin.

The reason he has all that money is he is surging in the polls and is pulling away from McCain nationally and in every battleground state. The article states it openly that he has more money than there is air time to buy. Meanwhile the rats are leaping from the dying McCain campaign. Pretty soon McCain will have to lay off speech writers so he can keep on the middle schooler he hired to read to Palin from the New York Times.

Your response is neither witty nor humorous. Your response is comical and full of the same desperation that Obama exhibits with this irrational move. David Axelrod must be mad.

Gigaal where does it mention obama lying all it shows is o reilly badgering obama and obama trying to defend himself. O reilly mentioned everything that was on people's minds. The article never mentioned obama lied, there is no documented proof of him lying.

WhoCares? Obama does.
He cares that all you fools who send your money to him will be paid back by a half hour TV commercial about how wonderful he is.
It's his money now since you IDIOTS gave it to him.
Obama has a great gift for oratory. but he is brain dead when it comes to judgement. The nasty special interest puppeteers who have the rubber glove up his rear will really enjoy the irony of your gift.
Since rampant voter fraud (read the news bozo) may well sail him into the White House, pat yourselves on the back for a victory, but sadly it is a victory that will make nearly everyone lose. Well everyone but Obama and the liberal limousine elite.. You know, his friends who create mass media glorifying violence and make up for it by disarming the law abiding. The ones who pass laws making sub-prime loans mandatory and then blame the other party for the carnage it causes. The ones who subvert Kennedy's great speech into "Don't ask what you should do for your country, ask what your country can do for you". You DESERVE Obama.
Get ready for the revolution that you are helping to create.
When you are cold and hungry in the dark, wishing your choice had been better, stay there.
Come by my place and I have a gift for you which will be delivered at 2750 feet per second, or you could wait for the street gangs to show up since you will have lost your right to self defense.
Tell them that you voted for "Change that you believed in".. They make take a moment to thank you after each one finishes with your wife.
Thank you so much for supporting Barack HUSSAIN Obama. You will be proud, but not for very long.

Heck kinda reminds me of the AIG execs. getting a 400,000.00 dollor vacation while the rest of us are struggling like crazy and still thier are those willing to give Obama everything they have instead of buying food for thier families, just digging themselves in deeper and deeper, what Obama has spent this year would have fed a heck of alot of families nationwide, and maybe even payed off a few mortgages!, but hey I suppose he figures he has to spend every darn penny that you all sent him, wouldn't feel right if he didn't and what would he do with it if he didn't spend it?
Well whatever, I figure it will be a good night to rent a movie anyway, what a waste.

Good one, and I agree, they are going to be shocked as he!!, thier will be no reperations as he has promised, thier will be no new programs paying them to sit in a home provided by the government and do nothing, he will all the sudden become a white man in thier eyes and they will feel he turned on them for not doing what he promised, this country is in a mess and he will only mess it up worse.
Where pray tell are we supposed to come up with the 800 billion he wants to earmark for all his new programs? and with the house and senate under dem rule they can do basically whatever they want, that in itself is scary enough, If he gets elected and gets in place all his appropreation programs I am going to quite my job and live off the government and will probably make more and save more for retirement than I would by working and paying for the bail-outs and obama's earmarks.

How many times do we have to go down this road. I will spare everyone the rehashing but you can find just as much damning information on McCain and Palin. Give us something positive about them if you want people to listen. Or is it that there is nothing good to say about them so you have to trash Obama?
