Can anyone remember a reform pledge Barack Obama hasn’t broken?
Can anyone remember a reform pledge Barack Obama hasn’t broken? First, he insisted that he would remain within the public-financing system, as late as February, then suddenly pronounced it “broken” when Obama didn’t want to stay within its spending limits. Next, his campaign went “negative” first against John McCain when he had pledged to eschew such advertising. Now Barack Obama and his team have begun raising millions of dollars in “soft money” from unions and PACs despite his sanctimonious depredation of such donations just two months ago
Video: Obama Announces the DNC Will Ban Lobbyist Money
That video is from June 5, 2008. Here is what it says:
The Democratic National Committee will uphold the same standard: We will not take a dime from Washington lobbyists or special interest PACs. : They will not fund my party!
Who did Obama call to “fund his party”?
- The SEIU, to get another $500,000
- AFSCME, which refused to donate more
- American Federation of Teachers
The DNC can’t even fund a party, let alone fund a program!

It seems that Obama has thrown integrity under the bus along with everything else. That assumes he ever had integrity, which I doubt.
Obama proclaims “change we can believe in” and has sold his candidacy to suckers on the basis that he’s different, a new kind of politician. When in reality he’s not only more of the same, he’s the a compilation of the worst features of the same.

Obama shows he is weak as water, and leaves big holes in his policies to weasel out of them at a later date. He will lie, say anything to secure his nomination. Obama is right when he acknowledges “THE DEVIL is in the details.” Takes one to know one!!! BO shows such inexperience and no firm foundation on anything plus the questions ask him on Saddleback Forum confirmed who Obama really is. A boy with no substance, empty suit, and lets his wife MO wear the pants in the family. He is sleaze, a true snake in the grass, the great pretender. What will come out of his mouth next?? His true complexion is showing, a chameleon of many colors,NOT to be trusted. I will never believe he is christian as he claims. Obama is a man of compromise, and attended a blasphemous church for twenty years, only to denounce it when he thought it would cost him the election.
John McCain showed integrity, strength and the ability to lead keeping America’s core principles in tack. McCain is everything BO is NOT. With McCain America will become OIL independent for our Children’s Children. Oh happy day, Pill-osi will be out the door for her criminal acts. She really did us a favor and we should all thank her for acting like a pos. I plan to call her office and say just that, if she ever gets her lazy butt back off her vacation. Hope Miss Botox gets a sun burn, for burning Americans in the pocket book. She’ll reap the whirlwind with her cockamamie wind blown ideas. Now I could have said this another way, but kept it sweet!
LOL
McCain a man for all seasons, and it’s due season for him as our President 2008!
With McCain we’ll TraveLight and rid America of Personal, Excess Baggage. . . not make a Wrong Turn and get on the Success Highway to Travel Light Years Ahead.
McCain is our GPS for SUCCESS! God Bless America!
