Ok but that is still too long- June? Both candidates are going to be completely battered and bruised by then.

I think the narrative by and large after the May 6th primaries will be "Obama is basically the nominee but Clinton is a shrill harpy that refuses to die. Here's sports."

Hilary Clinton's passport was breached as well?

I know Bill's was back in 1992.

 

[tanod]

Does anybody remember what Andrea Mitchell had reported last night about Obama having to wait 7 months for approval to go to a country so that a Republican senator/congressman could go with him? It was on Keith Olbermann's show last night.

Any more details on that today?

I may have misheard, my television is on a low volume directly behind me. I could of swore I heard that Hillary's passport file was breached in 2007? I'm probably wrong.

 

[Cheebs]

wtf? Obama went down 2 points on Rassmussen

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Hilary Clinton's passport was breached as well?

yeah CNN breaking news on the site www.cnn.com

 

[siamesedreamer]

AP:

Hillary Clinton had passport breached sometime in 2007

 

[sangreal]

yeah CNN breaking news on the site www.cnn.com

Hillary Clinton's passport file was breached in 2007, Secretary of State Rice told Clinton, according to the senator’s office.

I can't help but read that as "Me too! Me Too!"

 

[Smiles and Cries]

what a change in the news cycle :lol :lol

 

[maximum360]

wtf? Obama went down 2 points on Rassmussen

It's probably in major part due to his comments from the radio station that were taken out of context. Oddly enough, a Fox employee would call other fox commentators on their incessant bashing of Obama (and taking things out of context). We'll see how that plays out in the long run.

 

[GhaleonEB]

wtf? Obama went down 2 points on Rassmussen

That poll seems to bounce around a lot more than Gallups. Not sure what to make of it.

I can't help but read that as "Me too! Me Too!"

That's exactly what I thought. :lol

 

[Shiggie]

I can't believe how the media so willfully took that out of context. The only thing I can think of is that they never saw the full clips themselves.

yes they did. The sermons were sold to ABC in full and unedited. thats how they were obtained in the first place. you are completely right to blame the media for the spin.

 

[syllogism]

Are you once again trying to explain a statistically insignificant movement in a tracking poll?

 

[Triumph]

yeah CNN breaking news on the site www.cnn.com

I said whoa.

Someone is going to get fired if they found out about that just now

LOL, McCain's passport has been breached also. WTF was going on in the State Department?

 

[RiZ III]

Lulz State Department

 

[PhoenixDark]

I can't help but read that as "Me too! Me Too!"

Or maybe Obama isn't special

But McCain was a republican-in-name-only in 2007 so this may still be part of the vast right-wing conspiracy

e: unfortunately it seems McCain's passport was breached on the same day as Obama's

Probably already posted, but I liked this clip of Chris Wallace calling out Fox & Friends: http://www.redlasso.com/ClipPlayer.aspx?id=2f5bbade-1370-4276-8aa5-3544edf0857e

YES!!! YES!!!! YES!!!

Chris Wallace hits Foxnews hard! He basically kicked their ass.

 

[backbreaker65]

Again as I did last night, I apologize to Rev. Wright, I bought the kool aid the media was selling and I said some nasty things about the situation. I have since seen the sermon in its entirety.

Never does he mention anything racist against any group, a complete falsehood, I don't know how he was labelled a racist, because his sermon was about he government throughout history and the condemnation it will suffer from God for not treating its people fairly.

His detractors really need to go to his you tube website and digest the full sermon. I'm hoping the MSM do right by this man, because they really tarnished him and for what?

 

[syllogism]

MSNBC says Clinton's passport breach was a "training mistake" and no one was fired

 

[VanMardigan]

What the shit are you talking about? That was a line from Richardson's endorsement of Obama, and to me it indicates that he wasn't terribly close to endorsing Hillary. That's all I was saying.

Again, what the shit?

By all accounts, Richardson was extremely close to the Clintons, so I was pointing out that there is probably some underlying reason(s) why folks like him are crossing over and endorsing Obama. In other words, he ain't doing it because he feels Obama is a "once in a lifetime leader" or whatever. That's what I was pointing out. But go on cursing like an ass if it makes you feel like you're getting your point across.

 

[v1cious]

man they're blowing this security breach shit way out of proportion.

Spoiler

and i couldn't be happier

:lol @ Hillary's response

Kewl, she's about to withdraw then? Glad to see she's capable of doing the right thing!

To me this is one of the important parts of Wright's 9/11 speech.

“Violence begets violence. Hatred begets hatred. And terrorism begets terrorism. A white ambassador said that y’all, not a black militant. Not a reverend who preaches about racism. An ambassador whose eyes are wide open and who is trying to get us to wake up and move away from this dangerous precipice upon which we are now poised. The ambassador said the people we have wounded don’t have the military capability we have. But they do have individuals who are willing to die and take thousands with them. And we need to come to grips with that.”

I personally think everyone on GAF will agree with this.

 

[GhaleonEB]

:lol @ Hillary's response

"I respect Bill Richardson's decision but it's up to the people and not the super delegates to decide the election"

Holy cow. Mind-boggling.

 

[mckmas8808]

Another part of Rev. Wright's 9/11 speech.

“We have got to change the way we have been doing things as a society

Maybe we need to declare war on AIDS. In five minutes the Congress found $40 billion to rebuild New York and the families that died in sudden death, do you think we can find the money to make medicine available for people who are dying a slow death? Maybe we need to declare war on the nation’s healthcare system that leaves the nation’s poor with no health coverage? Maybe we need to declare war on the mishandled educational system and provide quality education for everybody, every citizen, based on their ability to learn, not their ability to pay. This is a time for social transformation.”

Again another part of the sermon not played on TV everyday. I'm starting to believe that our country would be better off if they played the whole sermon on TV 10 times a day on every network for a week.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

The State Department confirms John McCain’s passport file was breached as well as Obama and Clinton's files.

cnn breaking news :lol :lol

 

[Servbot #42]

its nice to know that hillary found her passport breach important enough to denounce it in 2007 and did not save it for a future political news cycle....

Oh wait!, damn that woman is good.

We should make a video compiling all of the contradictory Hillary and Mccain have made and put them on youtube. Obama has made some as well but Hillary and Mccain take the cake

CNN is streaming the event at which Bill Richardson will make his endorsement of Obama. Watching it now. I have class in half an hour, but hopefully I get to see it. I'm excited about this one! I like Richardson I think he's an upstanding guy.

Also read a poll on CNN since you guys like polls so much...53% of people polled don't believe Hillary Clinton is trustworthy.
