the interesting things is the ones pushing the hardest for this are the ones who want clinton to win. the republican governor of florida would prefer clinton and/or anarchy in the democratic party...his intentions are clear. the female governor or michigan is a clinton supporter so we know where her loyalties lie. her only true interest is getting hillary those votes and delegates. either way if they do the primaries over and hillary somehow pulls it out and wins the nomination, john mccain will be president. hillary's exit strategy is...pull the rug out from under obama then half-heartedly offer him the VP slot. if that is the case and barack is as smart as phonetap thinks he is, barack will say fuck you bitch and move on. bottom line, while phonetap is a democrat, by and large democrats are dumb....they'll figure out a way to fuck it up.

I think Hilary is trying to ruin the demoractic party if she doesnt get the nod. She is very Selfish IMO.
Paul has sponsored more important , MEANINGFUL and beneficial for the people , legislation in one year than Obama has during his entire career or even thought of. But I guess because the boys club shoots him down time and again because they're having too much fun with our tax dollars , that it's meaningless. Little do they realize or understand that it's the one they fight and reject , that's most likely the one to support.
heres a fundamental question for obama supporters obama wants to spend spend spend all this money where the hell is it going to come from, he sure as hell isnt talking about cutting spending any theres a reason hes the most liberal member of congress hes classic tax and spend

3 minutes Meanwhile, Obama publicly denounced Farrakhan on primetime TV. What's your point? Hey Petre, what's the name of the guy that supposedly wrote racist remarks in Ron Paul's name?
From his website: Restore Fiscal Discipline to Washington Reinstate PAYGO Rules: Obama believes that a critical step in restoring fiscal discipline is enforcing pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) budgeting rules which require new spending commitments or tax changes to be paid for by cuts to other programs or new revenue. Reverse Bush Tax Cuts for the Wealthy: Obama will protect tax cuts for poor and middle class families, but he will reverse most of the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest taxpayers. Cut Pork Barrel Spending: Obama introduced and passed bipartisan legislation that would require more disclosure and transparency for special-interest earmarks. Obama believes that spending that cannot withstand public scrutiny cannot be justified. Obama will slash earmarks to no greater than year 2001 levels and ensure all spending decisions are open to the public. Make Government Spending More Accountable and Efficient: Obama will ensure that federal contracts over $25,000 are competitively bid. Obama will also increase the efficiency of government programs through better use of technology, stronger management that demands accountability and by leveraging the government's high-volume purchasing power to get lower prices. End Wasteful Government Spending: Obama will stop funding wasteful, obsolete federal government programs that make no financial sense. Obama has called for an end to subsidies for oil and gas companies that are enjoying record profits, as well as the elimination of subsidies to the private student loan industry which has repeatedly used unethical business practices. Obama will also tackle wasteful spending in the Medicare program. Make the Tax System More Fair and Efficient End Tax Haven Abuse: Building on his bipartisan work in the Senate, Obama will give the Treasury Department the tools it needs to stop the abuse of tax shelters and offshore tax havens and help close the $350 billion tax gap between taxes owed and taxes paid. Close Special Interest Corporate Loopholes: Obama will level the playing field for all businesses by eliminating special-interest loopholes and deductions, such as those for the oil and gas industry. Barack Obama's Record PAYGO: Obama voted in 2005, 2006, and 2007 to reinstate pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) federal budget rules. No-Bid Contracts: Obama has introduced and helped pass bipartisan legislation to limit the abuse of no-bid federal contracts. Against Raising the Federal Debt Limit: In 2006, Obama voted against misguided Republican efforts to raise the statutory debt limit at the same time the Republicans were pushing through massive debt-financed tax cuts for the wealthy.
You really should break that down and then look at his other platforms on Global Tax , Illegal Immigration , Healthcare .... The idiot contradicts himself :: And to answer PhoneTapouts question ... what has he done ....WOW that's an impressive record !!!
The New Republic Angry White Man by James Kirchick The bigoted past of Ron Paul. Post Date Tuesday, January 08, 2008 If you are a critic of the Bush administration, chances are that, at some point over the past six months, Ron Paul has said something that appealed to you. Paul describes himself as a libertarian, but, since his presidential campaign took off earlier this year, the Republican congressman has attracted donations and plaudits from across the ideological spectrum. Antiwar conservatives, disaffected centrists, even young liberal activists have all flocked to Paul, hailing him as a throwback to an earlier age, when politicians were less mealy-mouthed and American government was more modest in its ambitions, both at home and abroad. In The New York Times Magazine, conservative writer Christopher Caldwell gushed that Paul is a "formidable stander on constitutional principle," while The Nation wrote of "his full-throated rejection of the imperial project in Iraq." Former TNR editor Andrew Sullivan endorsed Paul for the GOP nomination, and ABC's Jake Tapper described the candidate as "the one true straight-talker in this race." Even The Wall Street Journal, the newspaper of the elite bankers whom Paul detests, recently advised other Republican presidential contenders not to "dismiss the passion he's tapped." <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0><TBODY><TR><TD>http://a123.g.akamai.net/f/123/12465/1d/media.canada.com/e028eb9a-84d6-4def-93db-73f7261fb08f/ronpaul-o-rama.jpg?size=l View Larger Image Congressman Ron Paul </TD></TR><TR><TD></TD></TR><TR><TD height=30>RELATED CONTENT</TD></TR><TR><TD>Read selections from Ron Paul's newsletters </TD></TR><TR><TD></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE> Most voters had never heard of Paul before he launched his quixotic bid for the Republican nomination. But the Texan has been active in politics for decades. And, long before he was the darling of antiwar activists on the left and right, Paul was in the newsletter business. In the age before blogs, newsletters occupied a prominent place in right-wing political discourse. With the pages of mainstream political magazines typically off-limits to their views (National Review editor William F. Buckley having famously denounced the John Birch Society), hardline conservatives resorted to putting out their own, less glossy publications. These were often paranoid and rambling--dominated by talk of international banking conspiracies, the Trilateral Commission's plans for world government, and warnings about coming Armageddon--but some of them had wide and devoted audiences. And a few of the most prominent bore the name of Ron Paul. Paul's newsletters have carried different titles over the years--Ron Paul's Freedom Report, Ron Paul Political Report, The Ron Paul Survival Report--but they generally seem to have been published on a monthly basis since at least 1978. (Paul, an OB-GYN and former U.S. Air Force surgeon, was first elected to Congress in 1976.) During some periods, the newsletters were published by the Foundation for Rational Economics and Education, a nonprofit Paul founded in 1976; at other times, they were published by Ron Paul & Associates, a now-defunct entity in which Paul owned a minority stake, according to his campaign spokesman. The Freedom Report claimed to have over 100,000 readers in 1984. At one point, Ron Paul & Associates also put out a monthly publication called The Ron Paul Investment Letter. The Freedom Report's online archives only go back to 1999, but I was curious to see older editions of Paul's newsletters, in part because of a controversy dating to 1996, when Charles "Lefty" Morris, a Democrat running against Paul for a House seat, released excerpts stating that "opinion polls consistently show only about 5% of blacks have sensible political opinions," that "if you have ever been robbed by a black teen-aged male, you know how unbelievably fleet-footed they can be," and that black representative Barbara Jordan is "the archetypical half-educated victimologist" whose "race and sex protect her from criticism." At the time, Paul's campaign said that Morris had quoted the newsletter out of context. Later, in 2001, Paul would claim that someone else had written the controversial passages. (Few of the newsletters contain actual bylines.) Caldwell, writing in the Times Magazine last year, said he found Paul's explanation believable, "since the style diverges widely from his own." Finding the pre-1999 newsletters was no easy task, but I was able to track many of them down at the libraries of the University of Kansas and the Wisconsin Historical Society. Of course, with few bylines, it is difficult to know whether any particular article was written by Paul himself. Some of the earlier newsletters are signed by him, though the vast majority of the editions I saw contain no bylines at all. Complicating matters, many of the unbylined newsletters were written in the first person, implying that Paul was the author. But, whoever actually wrote them, the newsletters I saw all had one thing in common: They were published under a banner containing Paul's name, and the articles (except for one special edition of a newsletter that contained the byline of another writer) seem designed to create the impression that they were written by him--and reflected his views. What they reveal are decades worth of obsession with conspiracies, sympathy for the right-wing militia movement, and deeply held bigotry against blacks, Jews, and gays. In short, they suggest that Ron Paul is not the plain-speaking antiwar activist his supporters believe they are backing--but rather a member in good standing of some of the oldest and ugliest traditions in American politics.
I posted this in the DAILY PAUL ... You big EXPOSER YOU!!! --------------- Obama dennounces Farrakahn ? Sure he does ... the questionis WHY? In December 2007, the Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC) OBAMA'S CHURCH .. bestowed its highest social achievement award upon Louis Farrakhan, the head of the Nation of Islam.This was facilitated through the church's publication Trumpet Magazine and presented at their end of the year awards gala.

I think Obama should dennounce that church that Honors Racists with their HIGHEST Award ... I'm sure he'll do just that THIS SUNDAY when he attends services ... ::
:: i love the highlighted part where it says "paid for by cuts to other spending or new revenue" new revenue AKA taxes he hasnt mentioned one lick of an idea as to where hed cut spending as for earmarks: heres obamas total: $321,766,475 :: i think thats the most out of any of the candidates his plan to make the tax system "more fair and efficient" :: people dont move their money off shore because they are evil, they do it because we tax the fuck outta them im beginning to think people are not sure how the tax system works, "more fair and efficient", what a load of shit basically it sounds like his plan is to raise taxes, impose a global tax to the UN, and then on top of that give free shit to illegals and everyone else brilliant
fuck you care...you support a candidate with a racist past. weren't you the idiot who said all candidates have racist that support them the other day.
Or maybe it's unimportant , or maybe it was 30 fucking years ago and he DOESN'T KNOW WHO IT WAS cause he was busy delivering BLACK BABIES for free. :kick:
a racist past?? :laughing: :laughing: jesus christ you make it sound like he was lynching people and wearing a white sheet
So what if Black people like Farrakhan? I'm a fan of farrakhan. I don't agree with everything he says, naturally, but he's not all bad, he's good ways outweigh his bad ways and overall he's done alot of good for the self esteme of alot of blacks. He's well spoken, articulate and looks out of the best interests of black people...who up until relatively recently had been severely downtrodden in the US. Whites dislike Farrakhan NOT because of any "anti-semitic" comments, NOT because of his "pro black" comments...but because of the POWER he has in uplifting the spirit of black people, in commanding an audience...and because he's highly intelligent and impressive. he's a THREAT, plain and simple. So what if a black church likes Farrakhan. Louis F has done alot of good. He's been unwise in a few things that he's said...and people can denounce some of those things...but the man's heart is in the right place and nobody is perfect. I for one...will go on record and say that I'm a fan of the man, although I'm personally NOT anti-semitic, and fuck everyone who doesn't like it!
