Has anybody in the media actually confirmed that Barack Obama actually smoked pot, and that was the extent of his drug use?

Maybe it's just the Clinton fatigue talking, but if this politician admits to something and nobody checks it out, how do we know he didn't just make it up to look cool, or admit to this to omit something worse that nobody will look into now?

Rush said he thinks the MSM is tired of “whoring” for the Clintons.

Thanx:-)

Did those boys just lie their heads upon that track in Mena.

Mrs. Clinton has to realize that like Mrs. Roosevelt's ghost, the ghosts of the murdered neither can rest>

I think a better Clinton attack meme would have been to question Obambi’s psyco upbringing. Abandoned, identity confusion, abuse...oh wait..thats slick Willy’s upbringing as well. Nevermind.

I’m on the record as not believing any of this.

You ain't the only one.

Didn't Dick Morris write an article recently to that effect? IIRC, he said it would be to both Hillary's and Rudy's advantage NOT to win the first few primaries, so the spotlight would be off of them for awhile. I don't take much of what DICK says seriously, but I do believe that he has a lot of the same thought processes as the Clintons do and they may be inclined to think the same way. They know she's not going to do well & so they make it sound like she's on the ropes & then when she comes back, she's the comeback kid.

I just hope the whole thing blows up in their faces. There's a lot of younger people that aren't madly in love with Bill Clinton & would like to see a fresh face.

Perhaps another way would be to attack BHO’s lack of experience...oh wait—Hillary doesn’t have much more than him. Nevermind.

I have learned through hardened bitter experience to never count the Clintons out. What would have resulted in normal politicians being banished to Siberia have had zero effect on these reprobates. When I see Barry become the dim candidate and up there on the stage accepting the nomination, I will check my dial and pinch myself to be certain I am not dreaming. Only then will I start to believe the Clintons have been defeated.

...on Wednesday, heavyweight New Hampshire Hillary campaign operative Bill Shaheen told the Washington Post that, if he were to become the Democratic nominee for President, Obama would be constantly nagged about his past marijuana usage, and therefore would be a liability to the party.

Shaheen did not say "marijuana" but rather said "drugs". That is very different. "Drugs" includes cocaine.

...they now seem to be something worse than panicked having raised the issue of Obama’s “pot smoking.”

Who is the author quoting here? Nobody with the Clinton campaign said "pot smoking".

r the clintons trying the ‘comeback kid’ strategy? how far can a campaign take it and go too far?

Since the 'ladies' from the Des Moines Register caved, things look a little suspicious. However, using Obama’s “pot smoking for cover...what about Ms. Clinton’s $100,000.00 in cattle futures? Or her illegal behind closed door health care debacle? Her ruthless style in traveling in the US and abroad…..You can spend all day on the Clinton scandals, her baggage would fill a cattle car! Both would be getting a Third Term and the Nation will have four more years of Clinton filth, corruption and lies. Does being a mendacious politician qualify you to lead this nation? Think about your country when voting for a president – If the Democrats pick the Clintons, Please, Please, if you love your country vote the other way, show some backbone…..this is not a football game. No To The Clintons!

You're correct, it's 'Slew'.

But in this case, Obama has already addressed this negative part of his past, and has handled it about as skillfully as anybody could - - he has admitted to smoking pot...

Again with the misinformation. Hussein has admitted to using cocaine.

It was cocaine, not just pot. Some excerpts:

In the book, Obama acknowledges that he used cocaine as a high school student but rejected heroin. "Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it. Not smack, though," he says.

"We were always playing on the white man's court . . . by the white man's rules," he writes. "If the principal, or the coach, or a teacher . . . wanted to spit in your face, he could, because he had the power and you didn't. . . . The only thing you could choose was withdrawal into a smaller and smaller coil of rage.
