See what I mean? Don't confuse me with the facts. Obama, Obama, O'Bama (he endorsed Machine Gun Richard M. Daley, too).

Thanks for letting us know your race and gender, hrebendorf. I guess you haven't gotten over those kneejerk, prehistoric impulses either.

I think of Obama supporters as "don't confuse me with the facts" people. They want to believe in him, even though he's been caught lying, making deals with people under indictment, not working for his constituents, unrepently supporting a war monger, and blaming Congress for authorized the invasion of Iraq when we all know that the majority of Americans wanted revenge.

Give me some substantive differences and get off the Clinton memes about Bill and her war vote.

Josh - Who said that? It's this doofus Rosen who's "playing the feminist card".

Ruth,

Being anti-war ought to mean being anti-Obama. I refer you to this link (be forewarned, it's a conservative blog): http://ex-donkey.mu.nu/archives/166079.php. I point out this statement it quotes: "'I am absolutely certain Connecticut is going to have the good sense to send Joe Lieberman back to the U.S. Senate so he can continue to serve on our behalf,"' he said."

And what did Lieberman think was in the best interests of our country? According to Wikipedia: "Lieberman has been one of the Senate's strongest advocates for continued prosecution of the Iraq War." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Lieberman

Saying the Hillary's compromise for working women means she's not your kind of feminist isn't very damning. In fact, it shows she can negotiate with hostile legislators, something Obama has never shown any interest in doing with all his "present" votes.

Hillary has done more good for this country than Obama ever has. I'm from Illinois. I know first-hand how lazy a legislator he is.
