9. You're such a sad, bitter, spiteful person.
Maybe he does fucking care about us. Why is that so hard to believe? He's going to be the nominee so you might as well get on board and support your party.

10. Why are you trashing other Democratic voters? Do you want McCain to win?
This is not helping the party. I support Obama - but I never call Clinton supporters names. I guess it's that top down campaigning. Sen. Clinton takes every opportunity to impugn VOTERS who don't support her. This is why she cannot be the nominee - she has insulted and offended too many. And her supporters, sadly, are following suit.

12. Ok. But given this cynicism, does Hillary care any more about us?
Then it comes down to which one at least recognizes the need for change and the necessity of building a larger working majority to get a new agenda through.

13. All Obama is IS: "Just Words"..
Obama could care less about Americans. In your own mind, could you consistently sit in front of a minister who continually bashes your country with HATE speech week in and week out? What effect would it have on your mission in life?

14. Clinton supporters remind me of Anakin Skywalker crawling outta the lava...
Edited on Sat Apr-19-08 10:04 AM by BlooInBloo
... missing arms and legs.... hurling vituperatives at the only person who every had his interests at heart.


EDIT: Gawd I fucking hated Anakin. Didn't bother me in the least watching him wallow in the pain of his own failure.

20. So far as the analogy goes, sure. But that's the thing about analogies - they can be taken too far..
... by idiots.

26. There is no evidence that Wright...
said all that stuff week in, week out. And in what way was that hate speech, anyway? Is no criticism of the US allowed?
It is not Obama who doesn't care about his fellow Americans, it is you, and it's really rather sad.

31. You really have no tether to reality, do you?
Wright's speeches weren't much different than MLK Jr's, and the rational among us recognize the "Greatest Hit" video being flung about is not representative of the man's work from over 30 years, regardless.

And how does Jeremiah Wright have anything to do with Obama caring about people? And how does it answer the question of whether Hillary "Screw 'em" Clinton cares any more or less about people than Obama?

34. Show me where King said: "God Damn, America"
Show me where "King accused the government of injecting AAs with Aids-"

Show me where "King spoke ill of Hillary Clinton"

Show me where Jeremiah Wright is NOT connected to Louis Farrakahn and Momar Kadaffi and radicals in Kenya.

SHOW ME!

37. Good for you
You have the Clinton talking points down to a tee.

Tell me, have you researched the good Pastor Wright? Or are you basing your opinion on the constant three minute loop that the MSM ran non-stop? My guess is, by your statement, that you haven't done any research.

Sorry, but Obama is about more than just words. He's for the people. He's taken the high road, which by the way I think he needs to get a bit more down in the dirt and fight back. But I digress. He will be a breath of fresh air to the American people.

15. And after everything Hillary has done in the past few months, you think she cares about YOU???!!!
She is in it only for herself. Her actions have spoken volumes. Who is delusional here??

28. Do you know him personaly?
How can you make such a statement? Out of law school Obama went to work with laid of steel workers; Hillary went to work with Wal Mart.

Why shouldn’t I believe Obama cares?

The President of

the United States

Barack Obama

3. This was very typical of people who see him in person....
"He was even better in person than when we've been seeing him on television," one Obama supporter said.

"We're a house divided. I'm a Hillary supporter and I came to hear him and I was very impressed. So now I'm back on the fence," the Obama supporter's wife said.

36. I couldn't agree more. My family went to see him last night in Philly....
and I'm still getting emails from them. I think most of them supported him before the event, but this just reinforced their support even more. I can't wait until he's back in NC, and I hope he does the whistlestops here as well.
