Obama defends plans for direct talks with Iran

We don't care about Obama | 10:43 a.m. July 23, 2008

The Media's "great god" Barack Hussein Obamaism , will protect Israel's security and strive to bring about a "more lasting peace" in the region all with a total of 123 days he's been in a senate seat and he'll never get the seat in The White House?. All while Federal prosecutors have decided (A JUDGE DECIDES NOT THEM) not to seek criminal charges against the Rev. (where's his church) Al Sharpton, over his chronic tax problems?, perhaps his Jessie Jackson had something to do with this and told those Federal prosecutors he heard them say "the N word", so they tremble now in their cowboy-boots?. Al Sharpton needs to be in prison. But the dirveby news media needs Al Sharpton out for his poor baby boy Barack Hussein Obamaism love child. WE DON'T CARE that Obama's Middle East concert tour is part of an effort to bolster his support among Jewish voters in America, at the expence of the American tax payer's. It goes to show Barack Hussein Obamaism is nuts and really lost it.

Don't care? | 12:27 p.m. July 23, 2008

If you don't care, then why the ignorant rant? Also, what does Obama have to do with Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson?

Someone Clue Obama | 12:41 p.m. July 23, 2008

Will someone please tell that egomaniac gone amok that he not only is not the president of the United States, he is not even officially the nominee of his party.

Re: Someone Clue Obama | 12:59 p.m. July 23, 2008

Tell that to the Germans, they are already calling him "President Obama".

Wow....so many jealous loons and haters

why the surprise? | 1:56 p.m. July 23, 2008

Jealousy and hatred.
What else would you expect?
He's black, a Democrat, and leans left.
This is Utah.
They don't call it the reddest state in America for nothing.

Obama has No Right to directly talk to Iran and if he does he should be charged with Treason. I can go talk directly to Iran about my Policy towards Iran, "No Heads Covered Equal Right and Equal Pay for Women and a Christian Church on Every Corner." However much like Obama it will mean nothing until He is Elected President. I had to remind someone the other day that George Bush would be President until Jan 20, 2009. That is at last count 181 days. Obama is only a presumed party candidate for office. The reality check will cash and the spell will fade away.

So Much Hate | 3:03 p.m. July 23, 2008

Why must people be so close minded in Utah. Political decisions and leanings always turn to personal attacks about someone's name, race, or family.

I don't understand the hatred. Why should we not sit down and address, even our enemies. We have already seen that stonewalling them has done nothing for us.... And we have already seen that it doesn't make others in the international community want to help us. Obama is not showing Iran he supports them, but treating them like dogs doesn't get us anywhere either. The Bush foreign policy brigade has failed us, we need to do something different! Go Obama. Out with the right-wing losers in Utah!

Obama's | 3:11 p.m. July 23, 2008

meddling will only encourage Iran to do whatever they want.

"Why must people be so close minded in Utah. Political decisions and leanings always turn to personal attacks about someone's name, race, or family." "Out with the right-wing losers in Utah!" Look who the closed minded fool is here. You contradicted your ideas and beliefs with how two-faced your two quotes are. You really ought to start studying the issues. Obama's ideas and policies are very similar to Jimmy Carter's when it comes to international relations.

How did those policies turn out? Well, Ronald Reagan's first day in office, Iranian's released the American hostages from the U.S. Embassy because Iran knew Jimmy Carter didn't have a back bone and knew that Reagan was a real leader.

Before you take everything at face value that your worthless college professor tells you, study the issues yourself.

It's now less than four months until Election Day 2008, and the Democrats and their leftist allies are unleashing their full arsenal of smear-and-fear tactics against John McCain and our Republican candidates. With the help of Big Labor, radical groups like MoveOn.org, and George Soros and other left-wing billionaires, the Democrats have over a billion dollars to blanket America's airwaves with partisan, misleading attacks.This is all on top of the fawning, one-sided coverage Barack Hussein Obamaism and Democrat candidates receive from the mainstream media. If our candidates are to achieve victory this November, they must get their message of commonsense conservatism and principled leadership past the media filter and directly to the voters who will decide our nation's future course.We can't afford to let our opponents' media hype and pie-in-the-sky promises drown out our message of principled conservative government.

Who is George Soros?, he uses the wealth he amassed as a financier to support liberal U.S. political candidates and pro-democracy movements worldwide. After brokerage work in London and New York, he started in 1969 what became the Quantum Fund, one of the world's first hedge funds. It eventually paid 4,000-fold on initial investments and made Soros a billionaire. His knack for seeing trends and acting on them with gutsy marketplace gambits sometimes caused controversy. He was called the man who broke the Bank of England for the role his currency trades played in the 1992 Black Wednesday crash of the British pound; in 2002 he was convicted of insider trading in France. He turned philanthropist in the 1970s through what is now an international network of foundations under the umbrella of the Open Society Institute. His first foray into U.S. presidential politics came in 2004, when he threw millions of personal dollars behind efforts to unseat George W. Bush. In 2007 he declared support for candidate Barack Obama.

And? | 10:30 p.m. July 23, 2008

Google "Manchurian candidate" This was set up by conservatives. What about Rove's lies about McCain in South Carolina? Get off the ï¿½liberalï¿½ lies. Sure, this is an election, candidates attack one another.

"Ich bin ein Beginner" - B. Hussein Obama

Liberals posting in here always play their only card...that Utahns are naive about politics. Yet, this week Obama has pranced around the Middle East like he is the president. His campaign picks scenic back drops and locations that are set up to make him look more presidential. Who is naive? Bless those liberals because if someone looks good on camera they buy that over real experience. Every event staged for Obama is to gloss over his inexperience. Why does the man need to go to the Brandenburg Gate and speak? Photo Op!!

Liberals are the naive in the real world. They suck into every word Al Gore says about global warning (Every though most of his theories are junk science). They think Obama is presidential because he is a good public speaker and looks the part. Not one liberal in here can state what Obama has really done in his short political life. Yet, "Change you can count on" is the libs battle cry. And what exactly does that mean? No one knows because it is just empty campaign slogan babble.
