Digg this thread: Commentary: Obama breaks promise

I'm Surprised to see this up to almost 1300 diggs so far. It links to a critical commentary by CNN's Cambell Brown of Obama breaking his pledge to accept public campaign financing. It looks like conservatives are making a presence known on Digg.

Excerpt from the Cambell Brown commentary:

The story

You may have heard that Wednesday night Barack Obama will be on five different TV networks speaking directly to the American people.

He bought 30 minutes of airtime from the different networks, a very expensive purchase. But hey, he can afford it. Barack Obama is loaded, way more loaded than John McCain, way more loaded than any presidential candidate has ever been at this stage of the campaign.

Just to throw a number out: He has raised well over $600 million since the start of his campaign, close to what George Bush and John Kerry raised combined in 2004.

Without question, Obama has set the bar at new height with a truly staggering sum of cash. And that is why as we approach this November, it is worth reminding ourselves what Barack Obama said last November.

One year ago, he made a promise. He pledged to accept public financing and to work with the Republican nominee to ensure that they both operated within those limits.

GodGunsGuts, did you know Ayers' book "Prairie Fire" was dedicated to the assassin Sirhan Sirhan - killer of Robert Kennedy.

And that the man hosted in the LA Tape is the same man who went on to Columbia and invited the President of Iran to speak to the students. Small world when it comes to the strange ones - they all seem to know each other.

Get a link with the relevant (damning!) information, post it (or find it) on Digg, post it on FR, be sure to include the keyword “Digg” in the post, and we will help Digg it to the top! If the information is unavailable, write a vanity, post it on Digg, and we will still Digg/FReep your article to the top! C’mon man! Let’s reach some undecides!!!!

I had never heard of Digg until yesterday. Loved the “classy” comments posted after the article, particularly the ones that were hidden. Clearly many Diggers crawled straight out of the DUmp.

[GOP_Lady]

LOL.

[GodGunsGuts]

PS I left a word out. I meant write a vanity on FR, and we will still bump it up on Digg!
