IN RELATED NEWS: McCain staffers were vocally upset that their substance-less work on behalf of Senator McCain had so far gone completely unnoticed. "That's what happens when you REALLY don't say anything about your candidate in 10 to 20,000 words. No one pays attention!" groused staff writer Andrew Ritzobow. "Well, WE know we're actually the ones who said the least with the greatest number of column inches and I guess we'll just have to be satisfied with that."

  One thing about Obama and his supporters. They have absolutely no sense of humor. It has been so long since they laughed at a joke, instead of trying to please an audience, that they have forgotten what satire and humor are.

Wow. The Repugnant Cons are certainly running scared, aren't they. I guess it's about time they suffered some of their own 'tactics' of fear. Too bad this time they really have something to fear other than the Islamic Boogeyman. The fear of a President who might look into all the violations of law, constitution and American values perpetrated by the previous administration.

  " . . . a President who might look into all the violations of law, constitution and American values perpetrated by the previous administration."
  It is too bad that there is no candidate running for President that will do this. Granted, D. Kucinich may have but he withdrew a long time ago.

Very disappointing. They never explained whether or not he finished his waffle.

It's a shame that they have to go to puff instead of real. People are very afraid of what they write about Obama. There have not been too many articles about what Obama has done wrong like we used to get about Bill Clinton. Cigar anyone?

Dionys said: The fear of a President who might look into all the violations of law, constitution and American values perpetrated by the previous administration.
Eli says, the current administration should be looking into Barack Obama's shady dealings with Tony Rezko and Obama's ties with terrorists like Billy Ayres and Obama's trip to Kenya to campaign for his radical Islamic Kenyan cousin Raila Odingo who has been killing Christian Kenyans in his attempt to overthrow the democratically elected president of Kenya for the purpose of establishing Islamic Sharia law in Kenya. Ever wonder why Obama has be endorsed by Fidel Castro, Hamas,the Black Panthers,Kim Jong Il, etc.

  Well, there you go again bringing up the Muslim thing.
  Think about this. If he really was a Muslim would he have attended a Christian church for 20 years?
  Another thing, if it were to turn out that he was a Muslim who tried to change the U.S.A. to an Islamic nation don't you know he would be impeached. If not not something worse?
  Try all the dirty dealings Reagan had with right wing extremeists, trading arms to terrorist for our hostages just so they wouldn't be released while Jimmy Carter was still the president.
  What about Bushes track record and the constitution he pis*es on daily?
  Take your smear and place it where it belongs, with all the other insinuations and lies the neocons are known for!!!!
