A new video has surfaced from Barack Obama's Church and it is quiet scary. The pastor speaking is a regular guest at the Church and a friend of Barack Obama who was featured on his website until it was just removed because of the video. Now they have turned their hate and racism towards Hillary Clinton. It is time that we got real answers from Barack Obama about his feelings on race and his attitude towards the church that he was a member of for 20 years and his pastor and friends. We know very little about Sen. Obama and he should come out and be honest with us all.
Here is the video:

Even Clinton aknowledges Iraq trip with McCain not bad
Hillary Clinton today weighed in on the Obama Iraq Controversy. Obama has resisted going to Iraq with John McCain even though he has only gone once. Today Hillary Clinton had this to say about John McCain and the trips she took with him, "“I have the highest respect and regard for Sen. McCain, he and I have actually gone to Iraq and Afghanistan together, and I honor his service to our country and his patriotism.” Sounds like Hillary is willing to see the truth while Barack Obama perfers to employ empty rhetoric without knowing the truth.

The divisive Obama Cantidacy
Barack Obama's canidacy is becoming apparently more and more divisive. With terms like Racism and Sexism floating in the air it looks now like he cannot count on long time democratic support. Geraldine Ferraro the one time Democratic Nominee for Vice President of the United States has said in a New York Times that, “I think Obama was terribly sexist.” Compare that with the fact that NBC reported on the air tonight that 41% of the Clinton voters in the democratic primary in Kentucky would vote for McCain over Obama. It is hard to trace why such a division has taken place. The division seems to be happening on just gender lines but also the fact that moderate democrats find Obama to be too far left for their taste. The question now as Obama emerges as the presumtive nominee is can he moderate his message to pick up the rest of these votes and in doing so can he prevent from alienating his current supporters?

Who is Really Running the Show?
Robert Novack is quoting sources inside the Obama campaign as saying that he will not be able to pick Hillary Clinton as a Vice Presidential Cantidate because Michelle Obama has vetoed it.
That leads us to a bigger question about the Obama campaign, Who is really in charge? It seems like every Democratic Nominee is beholden to his spouse (Clinton, Kerry, and now Obama). So if that is the case why has been Obama been attacking the two for aspect of the Clinton Campaign when his house is no different.
For a Cantidate we already do not know enough about and has big questions in regards of Leadership, can he really afford this perception. We need a strong leader as President of the United States not First Lady.

HillaryCare just gets scarier and scarier
Hillary Clinton went on the ABC program “This Week.” with George Stephanopoulos. George really pressed Hillary Clinton on exactly how her Universal Health care mandatory requirement would be enforced and wether it would include garnishment of wages. She responded by saying, “George, we will have an enforcement mechanism, whether it’s that or it’s some other mechanism through the tax system or automatic enrollments.”
HillaryCare is what is wrong with politics today. She thinks it is appropriate for the government to tell everyone what they should do. This is an outright assault on the freedoms we enjoy in this country. Her solution to a free market is to make it mandatory and her solutions are garnishing peoples wages, automatic enrollment, or raising your taxes. This is the kind of big government everyone should fear. What is next she will require me to join a gym and if I do not join they just take the enrollment out of my paycheck or raise my taxes.
This issue has moved beyond HealthCare. Healthcare needs to be reformed, but Hillary proves that she is not intrested in Freedoms and Liberties of the American People. She shows she is a Big Government liberal who is only intrested in expanding the Power and Reach of the Government. These unconstiutional grabs at power must be stooped regardless of what well intention reasoning is attached to them.

Hillary Clinton on Immigration during the debate, I hope she was kidding
I listened to the Demoratic Debate on Tuesday Night. As Hilary began to talk about Immigration as I was simply shocked. I felt that she must be kidding, but no laughs came. I guess Hillary is just that out of touch with the rest of America.
She started with her rant by saying those that harbored and aided Illegal Aliens were doing nothing wrong. She believes that those help these people as they commit their crime are just good samartians. Excuse me, If a poor person holds up a bank and I help hide them I sure am going to go to jail for aiding a criminal, what the difference.
Next she tells the crowd that it is our responsibility to help the illegals learn English. Actually it is not. If people want to come to America they can learn English all on their own. In all generations passed we expected Immigrants to learn English they were put in the same classrooms as any other kid and they picked up English and then they taught thier parents. We most certainly should not develop special programs to assist those that have willingly broken the law.
These statments just prove how out of touch Hillary Clinton and her Pro-Illegal Immigrant crowd is with mainstream of America.

Maybe Hillary is not so bad after all
ABC reports,
"In six years as a member of the Wal-Mart board of directors, between 1986 and 1992, Hillary Clinton remained silent as the world's largest retailer waged a major campaign against labor unions seeking to represent store workers."
She may have forgot now, but at one time it appears she realized that Unions are bad for buisness. They rob and steal from buisness and the actual employees so the union bosses can gain power and grow rich

Is it pandering or just poor policy
In an article by Las Vegas Revew Journal, Hillary is quoted as saying,
A man shouted through an opening in the wall that his wife was illegal.
"No woman is illegal," Clinton said, to cheers.
Is this just Hillary pandering or does she have no clue on the importance of immigration? It is getting real old hearing Hillary say anything people want to hear just so she can pick up a few extra votes. Electing a President should be a serious decision not people running around trying to make everyone happy.

Hillary (pot) attacks Obama (Kettle); Does Hillary actually believe her own accusations.
Hillary today Attacked Obama for his ambition to be President. Does she really believe she did not do the same thing herself. There was never any question that Hillary was positioning herslef for a run from the day she got into the White House. Besides how does 4 additional years give you emense credibility when she had no public service before that and Mr. Obama had in fact served in the state legislature before running for the us senate. Here is the quote.

"So you decide which makes more sense: Entrust our country to someone who
is ready on day one ... or to put America in the hands of someone with little
national or international experience, who started running for president the day
he arrived in the U.S. Senate."

To Show how much she really can not make a decision; Hillary polled Streisand endorsment
Hillary at times humors me too much. She actually polled an endorsement. She has never found any pandering that she would pass up. Hillary is truley a joke and if she did not have the media in her pocket America would see it too.
The New York Times' Caucus quoted a Streisand Source,
Sphere: Related ContentStill, the singer’s value to Mrs. Clinton shouldn’t be scoffed at, another
Streisand associate said on Wednesday.
“We would’ve low-keyed it,” the
associate said. “But the campaign says it’s a net plus. They polled it. Among
Democratic primary voters, even in places like Iowa, they love Barbra. By the
way, she just sold out concert tours around the world. And she’s great for
fund-raising. In fact, a fund-raising letter signed by her went out this
morning.”

CNN is really the Clinton News Network
CNN has now proved that they are totally beholden to the Clintons. First when Hillary was flaming out they stacked the audience and questions in Las Vegas to put her back on solid footing. If it was not enough that they threw a debate to help their favorite candidate, now they have allowed a general on the Hillary steering committee to ask a question at the Republican Youtube debate without even disclosing it. But, it did not stop there, after the candidates addressed his question he was in the audience and Anderson Cooper gave him several minutes to make a speech about gays in the military.
Joe Scarborough on Morning Joe this morning went off on CNN saying,
Before with James Carville sitting there giving his opinions despite the fact
that he's contributed to Hillary Clinton, obviously worked for Bill Clinton, he
sent out letters saying we really need to fight hard for Hillary Clinton. They
didn't even mention it. And again, the damndest thing.
And last night, not
only do they have this guy delivering a YouTube video, they also had him there
sitting in the audience, they had a shot with him It's Bill Bennett, it is
up to Bill Bennett to explain to CNN, and don't tell me that CNN didn't know,
that some people at CNN did not know, that he was part of the Clinton campaign.
Don't lie to me.Maybe Anderson Cooper didn't know, but somebody at CNN that put
this guy in the video knew that.
CNN has proved incapable of not letting their Clinton and liberal bias show. It is time now for the Candidates to stand up and refuse to participate in any CNN sponsored debates and forums. The network should also be investigated by the FEC for making a in-kind political contribution to a Presidential Campaign. Sphere: Related Content

Old: Media Matters liberal Hack site, New: Undercover Clinton Group
We all knew that Media Matters was a liberal hack site posing as a Media Watchdog Organization. But, now some serious question are being raised about their bias towards Hillary at the expense of Obama and Edwards. Hillary has claimed in the past she is involved in the group, but what should people have disclosed to them about such "watchdog" groups. The question raised now is the group sent out a list of questions that should not be asked tonight and the ones for Edwards and Obama were outright negative attacks while Clintons were more nuanced and not personal in nature.
Chuch Tood does a great job of laying out the case.
My bottom line is that if you claim to be a watchdog site you should be that not a partisan and one candidate hack site. It is time Media Matters came clean to American People that they have been "protecting" and "educating"

The people of New York have spoke loud and clear to Spitzer on Immigration
Governor Spitzer has now pulled his plan to give Illegal Aliens drivers licenses. The plant got a lot of attention not only in New York, but was even raised as an issue in the Presidential Debate two weeks ago, tripping up Hillary Clinton. Now it seems that the people of New York have spoken on the issue. They have sent Governor Spitzer's poll numbers crashing down. It is time that politicians take notice that the American People do not want Illegal Immigrants to get a free pass and receive all the benefits that legal citizens of the United States receive.

On John Edwards's endorsment and "anger"
According to the New York Times,
"So how is John Edwards feeling about Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York these days? So bad, apparently, that in an interview last week he twice refused to say whether he would endorse her should she win the Democratic presidential nomination."
In the same Article the New York Times mentions that Barack Obama gave a more predictable answer, "“I am a Democrat, and I would support the Democratic nominee,” he said. With a smile, he added, “I intend it to be me.”
While John Edwards is acting in a rather strange way to the idea that he might not be the nominee. Sen. Chris Dodd did not miss the chance to come out and hammer John Edwards. According to MSNBC'S First Read Sen. Chris Dodd had this to say, “I am surprised at just how angry John has become. This is not the same John Edwards I once knew. Of course, we should all come together to support the nominee. I wonder which of the Republicans John prefers to Hillary?”
It appears that the Democrats have really started to turn on each other now and it should be an intresting free for all.

New McCain Ad in New Hampshire knock Hillary's Woodstock Funding
John McCain is running a new ad in New Hampshire that directly attacks Hillary Clinton's earmark for the Woodstock Museum. He also references the wasteful spending of the current Washington establishment. This is a good ad for John McCain as it identifies with an issue he has long been known for. John McCain has always been against the current earmark wasteful spending that is becoming the standard operation of the United States Congress. It also never hurts to take a Hilary shot especially over something as silly as one million dollars for a Woodstock Museum.
