“Obama is weak” will be the mantra of many ads to come, I predict.

Is this “conservative” National Campaign Fund self-funded?

Or is it kinda, sorta taking orders from someone who works for someone who works for someone whose last name starts with a “C”?

He has modified his position to support the death penalty in cases involving the “most heinous” of crimes.


Yeah right, that means never. Several years ago there was a death penalty case here in NJ. Victim was shot multiply times. The death penalty was overturned because the NJ appeals court decided that the perp didn’t mean to kill the victim, even though the victim was shot 21 times by a 9mm.

If this was connected with "C", it would have run months ago. It's too late for "C".

Help me here, someone? Wasn’t the original Horton ad run by a DemocRAT in the the demo-primary by one of the losers before it was ever thought of by the Repub’s? I can’t remember the details.

I believe algore was the first to bring the subject of Willie Horton up in a debate with Dukakis. I don’t believe there any Willie Horton ads in the dem primary.

Thanks, Buckeye. Now, if we can only get Obama to put on those “Mickey Mouse “ ‘ears’ and get his picture taken with a goofy smile while riding in a tank . . ..

Group to Air Obama 'Willie Horton' Ad...This is Cr@p! ....Bubbas' Veep Al Gore, released the Original 'Willie Horton' Ad in 1988.

Brown only "picked-it-up" during a very short time in the General Elections, while Gore was running the ad much longer during the 'Rat Spring/Summer primaries.

Exactly correct!
Al Gore started the Willy Horton talk.
Another case of the Dummycrats changing history for their own benefit.
But,people buy their crap every time.
Just as I want to strangle (not fatally) the people who say that “Swift Boating” someone is to lie about them.

Horton in the 1988 presidential campaign...

The first person to mention the Massachusetts furlough program in the 1988 presidential campaign was Al Gore. During a debate at the Felt Forum sponsored by the New York Daily News, Gore took issue with the furlough program and brought up the Horton incident.

Republicans would pick up the Horton issue after Dukakis clinched the nomination.

from that unmentionable website.

Glad to see it but I think they could get more miles out of Obama’s sponsored Global Poverty Act (Global Welfare Program). It would certainly get a lot more attention.

$845 billion to the UN on top of our current foreign aid?

OK, he can call them Mohammedan Terrorists, Muslim Terrorists, Mussleman Terrorists, or any of the many other terms for members of the Islamic cult. I kind of like Mohammedan or , since it implies that they worship Mohammad, which they do, but claim not to and get all hot under the rag when it's implied or stated that they do.

Pass the popcorn please.

Obama defended his opposition to the gang death penalty bill because, he argued, it would unevenly apply to minorities.

Well.....DUH!!!

Moron, it's because the minorities are the ones who commit the crimes!!

Obama hasn't got a clue what's going on in the real world. He's become such an elitist that he doesn't care about or deal with "angry, bitter, Americans."

Very poor reason to vote against this proposal. If a proposed death penalty bill would apply unevenly toward whites, it would be allright? Obama is showing his preference to protect minorites vs. the populace in general. Some might call that racist.
