Media is investigating Obama childhood, and into someone very close to him....

[bigdarryl]

my question is why just Obama why not Edwards or Richardson and Hillary.and who is this someone very close to him is it a former girl friend the media loves to get into Candidates personnel relationships.

[Fresh_Start]

1. Why not Rudy or McCain or Gingrich

to see how many adulterous affairs they had during marriages??

[MannyGoldstein]

2. Probably Because They Are Being Fed The Info

by another candidate. One candidate, in particular, is known for that kind of thing.

[bigdarryl]

3. MannyGoldstein i agree with you 100% on that i was thinking the same thing you are BUT....

Every time you mention that candidate some DU'ers go BALLISTIC!!!

7. Secret Clinton Black Helicopters Circle BO's Childhood Home!

The paranoia rampant among the rabid BO supporters is quite amusing.
If the MSN are looking into his background it's becasue we find him interesting.
"Secret Clintonista Agents have the Dirt on BO and are slipping it to their MSM cohorts!"
Oh, please...

Clark/Obama '08!

4. Yes the media has totally given Hillary a pass over the last 16 years...

:sarcasm:

[bigdarryl]

6. The truth is we don't know anything about Hillary prior to her being married to Bill it's rumored ..

that in the sixty's that she supported the radical Black Panther's. they have never looked into her childhood like there doing to Obama.

8. Black Panthers?????

She was President of the Wellesley College Chapter of the College Republicans.
A well known 60s radical group... :rofl:

[bigdarryl]

9. This was discussed by a radio personality this past week, they were saying....

the media is giving her a past on this by not looking into it. i don't know where this person got his info from but at this time as far as i am concern it's just a rumor.

[MethuenProgressive]

11. "the media is giving her a past" That's quite a typo!

You meant "pass" of course, but you probably hit the nail on the head anyway -
The media (in this case one radio personality and you) is giving her a "past" by making shit up ans repeating it!

15. That was her freshman year

As a 1969 graduate, it was very typical to move considerably to the left. (Great college years)

[SaveElmer]

12. Yeah and I also heard...

She was an alien...sent here to prepare the human race for assimilation...

[karynnj]

14. That has been debunked many times

They did look into her childhood/ adolesence/ young adulthood etc . (What I bet is that the RW is looking at antiwar footage from the 60s. - She was likely there , as were many of her DU contemporaries, and many of us are proud of it. Remember that the anti-war movement considered John Kerry too moderate. He was attacked from both ends of the spectrum, but impressed the hell out of the broad middle in 1971. )

5. Such a shame that the democrats have to blame their own.

I think it was stupid for that member of Obama's group who Obama denied knowing, made that ad. If he was so good why didn't he make one about the republicans.

The more you see the democrats fight amongst themselves you see why the republicans have reaped the benefits for so long. The democrats don't pull together and until they start to be a team against the republicans instead of themselves they will continue to fall along the way.

If Obama has that much good stuff going for him these petty snips won't hurt him and if he was so squeaky clean he wouldn't have needed someone to set up the YouTube Ad.. so it goes both ways.

Obama lost my vote with the ad. Although I really was leaning toward Edwards anyway.

[PresidentObama]

10. Hmmmm, I'd hardly say Obama was responsible for the ad.

Just because the guy who did it, who is obviously an Obama supporter, worked for a firm that did work on his website. Big deal, that hardly proves nothing. As far as we know, no direct link between Obama and this guy occurs. And I'll take Senator Obama and his campaign at their word. If this 'lost your vote' than I'd say you probably hardly even gave Obama a chance. This was bullshit anyway. Even if Obama was linked to it, and he wasn't, what impact did it have? Barely nothing!!

Nice choice in Edwards :hi:

[nevergiveup]

13. If Obama lost your vote

because of this ad, by the end of this election everyone will have lost your vote. There will end up being a plethora of these ads and sorting them all and their original sources will be impossible. I suspect Obama never had your vote in the first place.
