Well, he gets the “captain obvious” award for the day.
Awww, come on, Ossama, tell us how you really feel. Seriesly, folks, this has needed saying by this very individual for a long, long time.
Oh, boy, Captain Obvious everywhere, even here!
I’ve noticed that the only time the Democrats tell the truth is when they’re campaigning against one another.
Take this headline and roll it around on your tongue. Wait a moment and savor the irony.
Next week: Water is wet.
I can't wait for Obama to call her a war criminal!
"Every nation has to either be with us, or against us. Those who harbor terrorists, or who finance them, are going to pay a price."

And if he wins the nomination we'll have two candidates "telling the truth". That should be interesting.
O-h-h! A knife fight.
Wait until the Barck The Muslim stuff starts REALLY coming out. It won’t be from conservatives; it will be from The Beast. This ain’t even the beginning.
Delicious!
This after having spent the last few days sucking up to that paragon of inclusion, Teddy Kennedy?
people are so snowed by this guy’s speaking voice, platitudes and soundbites. Just like they were by Bill Clinton. Say lots, do nothing.

Well, if that isn't devisive I don't know what is. Obama seems to forget that the role of POTUS is to get both parties to work together - not just support and unite his party. If you read his statement carefully, you can see he is prepared to fight the Republicans at every turn. Seems he also forgets that in his rush to offer "change" he is not willing to pay attention to history and what you can learn from the past. It is scary.
His "change" mantra sounds refreshing to the uneducated, young, and scared...but without understanding and incorporating the past and learning from/working with both parties in government who have been through good and bad times this country is doomed.
Obama would be like a teenager with a penchant to try something different and that sounds exciting, only to find out that new is not always better, and drastic changes carry consequences. The presidency is not an experiment in change, nor for someone with a teenage level of maturity who seems to ignore the fact that the role of POTUS includes satisfying left and right-wingers as best as possible for the common good. You don't throw out the baby with the bathwater, and it seems Obama is bent on doing just that.
I think, even the Dems, are frightened about his blind enthusiam, his un-tested leadership skills, his belief that all things must change, etc. and for that reason many are clinging to Hillary, even with all her baggage. Hillary is certainly from the "old school," but she learned to play the game, and that is why Dems still support her. There is an aura of safeness they feel because she has made some concessions and (even if they were minimal) she has worked with both parties toward a unified goal. Of course, we all know that neither is a worthwhile candidate, and it is a sorry state of affairs that the Democrat party hasn't produced anyone, or doesn't have anyone more viable to lead this nation. If either of them would win the election get prepared for a rough time including: failing economy, higher taxes, more entitlement programs and special-interest group concessions, terrorist attacks on the homeland, and lots more of in-house fighting and confusion over social issues.
Obamma thinks Klinton is divisive?
I think he is a murderer and a rapist, not to mention thief, liar and general buffoon.
McCain being a front runner makes it easy for Dems to vote their hearts. They know they will win no matter who they nominate. Kucinich might beat McCain. Edwards, for sure. Biden would make it interesting, we might see a double melt-down.
Of course he would for purposes of making for an easy road to the White House for a true socialist.
