From the Politico:

Apparently, Democrats don't even care about actual people's votes.

Turns out the pledged delegates are fair game, and Sen. Rodham Clinton plans to squeeze every one of them.

By hook or by crook, I guess.

I wonder if any Arkansas delegates switch to Obama, will Max label them an "Obamaist"?

Blue name.

What short memories people have once they enter the voting booths for the very people (minority) President Clinton gave the most hope too have turned on her with a vengeance. For nothing more than a shot in the dark with little substance and a stadium full of orator! So Ironic!

It better be more than BS orator otherwise all we die hard D-----! will have left is a belly full of Obama Grits!

Thank God John McCain wasn't the War Hero he has led us to believe but then everyone knew GWB entered the Guard ahead of others who went to Nam in his place and died and because of it America has been dead/AWOL for a long 7 years!

Well apparently that's all Jesus had a few thousand years back, least that's what those uneducated cave men told us, but it's been one step forward and 2 steps back controversy ever since.

"...Thank God John McCain wasn't the War Hero he has led us to believe but then everyone knew GWB entered the Guard ahead of others who went to Nam in his place and died and because of it America has been dead/AWOL for a long 7 years!...--BWC

But remember, BWC, Kerry was everything President Shit for Brains wasn't: A real war hero who had lived all that kick-butt rhetoric the Repubs have stolen as their very own. And it didn't stop Monkeyboy from successfully selling himself as everything he wasn't and tarring Kerry as everything Monkeyboy actually was. It'll take a lot more than grand words, promises of utopia and a lack of Hillary-hate to overcome a machine like that.

Oh Yeah, John Kerry is a real war hero!?! A lying back-stabbing war hero I suppose.

And, are all the Hillary fans happy with the bad press Obama is receiving? All the "Hillary gets mistreated by the media because she is a woman, whea, whea." can now rest at ease since Obama is being beat up for
1. Che posters in the background of his campaign workers in Texas
2. Plagiarizing speeches
3. Planting people to pass out at his rallies
and most importantly
4. Running a campaign on an idea on not on issues

Disclaimer-I am not an Obama fan (obviously) but I just want to make sure his treatment by the media is being noted in the same manner as Hillary's.

That's just what we need, is for Republicans like MAK to be so FK'ing helpful in a Democratic time of need. His type defend Bush going AWOL at the same time they smear a guy who earned medals while risking his life in Vietnam. Funny how it was 2007 before George W. Bush ever set foot in Vietnam.

Of course a Republican could never understand the term fair press coverage. To them fair is something they went to to ride the merry go round in their childhood. Like water burns the Wicked Witch of the East, fairness burns Republicans plumb up. They hate a fair fight.

Evidently if one has a newspaper column or a TV talk show part of the formula to attract viewers without working real hard is to yo yo back and forth and back and forth. Hillary is a shoe-in! Hillary is falling behind! Hillary's campaign is dead! Hillary might make a come back! Hillary surprised the pundits and most of America! Back and forth....back and forth. I'm telling ya, when the MSN decided to treat news like the ABC Mystery Movie of the week, we all suffered for it.

Just like the local talking heads ask in the middle of the day, "Are dangerous gases in your home killing you?" "Is your child safe at school?" All just to get you to tune in later.....so too the national media tries to keep us on the edge of our seats by playing a game with our election process. We should be smarter than to let them twist us around....but obviously we're not.

As the US celebrates the departure of evil old Fidel Castro and continues to beat our red, white, & blue chests about being the best country in the world.....consider this from the front page of the NY Times today: "He succeeded in establishing universal health care, providing free education through college and largely rooting out racism."

When will the best country in the world ever achieve those 3 goals?

I don't defend Bush in anything. He, in his eight years has handed his balls to dumbass liberals by seldom standing up to them. I do not really know whether he was AWOL or not, there are reports showing it both ways and I don't really care.
I do care that Kerry is put on a pedestal by libs for his heroics, but the photos of him chunking military medals and making false accusations against his military brothers is ANYTHING but heroic.

Fair Press Coverage, DBI is when I can turn on CNN and in one hour hear something OTHER than "is Hillary being treated unfairly for her tears", "what has made Obama the rockstar that he is" and "where will the dem superdelegates go". You see in watching CNN for one hour, you get 50 min of liberal and 10 of conservative-that just seems a little unfair to me. I simply needed to make it known that in the three hours of news/commentary I watched last night, probably 2.25 hours were dedicated to blasting Obama's plagiarism and fainting fans. The same people that were putting Hil down for her tears, were now putting Obama down for plagiarism-sounds to me like Hillary is not the only one being "ripped apart" by the media. But, hey when Hil's feelings get hurt, people lose their jobs, right? So what goes around comes around.

PS-I want you to go to the hospitals for the average Cuban-not the ones specifically for foreigners and dignitary. Get you a little of that health care there, along with the rats coming up from the holes in the floor and talk to me about your idiotic, idealistic, SOCIALIST health care. And, I am sure many Americans would love to have free education at the cost of attending LABOR CAMPS like Cuba.
Hopefully, Americans are intelligent enough to know that the NY Times celebrates Che, Castro, Bhutto and Chavez while demonizing someone like Falwell. Based on your response, I fear this may not be the case. Glad to see the circulation of NY Times is drastically dropping. I will never for the life of me understand, why all you libs that think countries like Cuba are so great, don't just move there. You clearly are uncomfortable with the foundation of this GREAT country. So, why don't you and Code Pink pack up and move to Havana? Oh, I know-it is because you know it is a shit hole! So, you stay in America and want to follow suit, making America the same shit hole that Cuba is. Equal Opportunity and all...the world can only be good if we all SUCK equally?

Cuba,
"Ranked #39 by the World Health Organization; spending $251 per person annually; health care for all; a life expectancy of 77.6 years, and an infant mortality rate of 6.2."

United States,
"Ranked #37 by the World Health Organization; spending $7,092 per person annually; 48 million people uninsured; a life expectancy of 77.5 years, and an infant mortality rate of 6.8."

"The U.S. health system spends a higher portion of its gross domestic product than any other country but ranks 37 out of 191 countries according to its performance, the report finds. The United Kingdom, which spends just six percent of GDP on health services, ranks 18 th . Several small countries - San Marino, Andorra, Malta and Singapore are rated close behind second- placed Italy.

Other findings in the annual WHO report include:

In Europe, health systems in Mediterranean countries such as France, Italy and Spain are rated higher than others in the continent. Norway is the highest Scandinavian nation, at 11th .
Colombia, Chile, Costa Rica and Cuba are rated highest among the Latin American nations - 22nd, 33rd, 36th and 39th in the world, respectively.
Singapore is ranked 6th , the only Asian country apart from Japan in the top 10 countries.
In the Pacific, Australia ranks 32 nd overall, while New Zealand is 41st .
In the Middle East and North Africa, many countries rank highly: Oman is in 8 th place overall, Saudi Arabia is ranked 26th , United Arab Emirates 27th and Morocco, 29th."

"In many countries without a health insurance safety net, many families have to pay more than 100 percent of their income for health care when hit with sudden emergencies. In other words, illness forces them into debt."

"...the world can only be good if we all SUCK equally?" by: MAK

I guess you agree..."For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country,"
"because it feels like hope is making a comeback." -- Michelle Obama

MAK,

The reason why you're hearing 90% percent coverage of liberal candidates on CNN is that most of the coverage is a thinly-veiled attack on either Obama or Clinton. Every story uses negative adjectives...while the few stories about GOP candidates are written in a positive light. Talk about your slanted media....so, it is really ridiculous of you to opine about the amount of coverage being given the candidates...its show how little attention you are really paying...just like most of the GOP voters who let president codpiece fool them.

MAK,

Rove really has you droolin' !

Sorry, click on handle for explanation.
