Awesome new Obama ad in PA!!!
http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/caitlinharvey/gGBNSH

Obama tells it like it is and says how he doesn't take Oil money.

Thank GOD there's not somewhere like opensecrets.org where someone could look up and see if that's really true.

Obama Rocks.

26. didn't you know?
We all killed Jesus essentially...

He died for all our sins. You have a garlic nose? me too, I love garlic!!! It's very tasty, I mix it with a lot of things when I am cooking.

My mother was a typical white person, it's a generation thing, just like Obama's grandmother.

27. Stop whining and spining talking points
Edited on Sun Mar-30-08 04:52 AM by OhioBlues
It's just as wrong to take offense as it is be offensive. We've all been accused of all sorts of things. The only words I have for you is John McCain won't win no matter how much you'd like that.

8. And when you're done watching...
Go here http://www.opensecrets.org/indivs/index.asp

And where it says, "Employer" type in "Shell Oil" and where it says "Candidate" type in Obama.

7. Yes, because there is no difference between lobbyists for the oil industry
and people who just happen to work somewhere that is considered the "oil industry".

Git cher head outta yer ass and learn up on things before you post about them.

15. I work on an assembly line for an auto party supplier.
Edited on Sat Mar-29-08 11:01 PM by GOPBasher
They shouldn't take my donation, because I represent the big auto lobby. :eyes:

Oh and let me add that I'm very careful not to say anything bad about Clinton incase she's the nominee. If you Clinton supporters don't support Obama if he becomes the nominee, and McCain cuts my mother's Medicare, I do hope you all rot in hell. Thank you. :-)

29. Obama has officially passed my "warm and fuzzy" threshold.
He doesn't even have to say anything anymore. Just seeing him makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

36. So sad. Hey, has Hillary returned the $170,000 she took from those sexual harassers yet?
Edited on Sun Mar-30-08 11:33 AM by Catherina
You know, the CEO of International Profit Associates whose firm is facing 103 lawsuits for sexual harassment?

It's kind of repuslive that Hillary isn't more sensitive to allegations of sexual harassment dontcha think?

Sen. Clinton accepts donations from troubled firm
Posted on Friday, February 29, 2008 3:50 PM PT
Filed Under: Politics
By Lisa Myers and Jim Popkin, NBC News

Sen. Hillary Clinton has declined to return $170,000 in campaign contributions from individuals at a company accused of widespread sexual harassment, and whose CEO is a disbarred lawyer with a criminal record, federal campaign records show.

The federal government has accused the Illinois management consulting firm, International Profit Associates, or IPA, of a brazen pattern of sexual harassment including "sexual assaults,” “degrading anti-female language" and "obscene suggestions."

In a 2001 lawsuit full of lurid details, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission claims that 103 women employees at IPA were victimized for years. The civil case is ongoing, and IPA vigorously denies the allegations.

"This is by far, hands down, the worst case I've ever experienced," said Diane Smason, one of the EEOC lawyers handling the lawsuit. "Every woman there experienced sex harassment, they were part of a hostile work environment of sex harassment. And this occurred from the top down."

...

Adrienne Slick, who worked at IPA for seven months in 2000 and 2001 as a business coordinator and is now part of the EEOC suit, told NBC News in an interview that the sexual harassment was oppressive. “I had multiple managers come at me, press themselves up against me ... ask me to go home with them, and to a hotel room so they could fulfill their fantasies," she said.

...

Hey but what's a little groping or rubbing your genatalia against working women when the queen's coronation is at stake?

You can go back to acting "shocked" that Obama collected a few thousand dollars from employees of the oil industry. I guess in Hillaryland you can't give unless you're the employee of a firm that has 103 sexual harrassments suits filed against it.

You just gotta love the old time hypocrites backing Hillary's run. Not.

Lord pity the working women if Hillary comes to power, especially those young girls slaving away in Chinese factories and Brazilian sugar plantations.


Edit to thank you for kicking this thread. How's that post-boycott strategy of kicking your kitchen sink threads working out for ya?
