Johnson backs Obama

MITCHELL, S.D. (AP) South Dakota Senator Tim Johnson is endorsing a colleague for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Johnson says he's backing Barack Obama because he's bi-partisan and wants to bridge differences between the two parties.

The state's other elected leaders announced their endorsements some time ago: Senator John Thune endorsed John McCain, Representative Stephanie Herseth Sandlin supports John Edwards, and Governor Rounds backs Mike Huckabee.

Posted by obamaoverrated on Jan 9 2008 10:00PM - How is he bipartisan? In 2006, he was ranked as the 9th most liberal senator, while Clinton was ranked 32nd. I'm no Clinton fan, but Obama is well to the left of Clinton. In fact, many Republican Senators privately praise Clinton for her work ethic in the senate, and appreciate her for reaching across the aisle on major legislation. On the other hand, Obama just talks about bringing people together, but his record is something else. Look I hate defending Clinton, but the important point is.. please Republicans and like minded conservatives, don't fall for Obama and his bipartisan rhetoric. He is a likeable guy, but his policies are far to the left of Middle America. Driver's licenses for illegal aliens, talking to dictators like Ahmadenijad, and eliminating the cap on social security contributions are not mainstream positions even in the Democratic Party.

Posted by obamaunderrated on Jan 10 2008 3:55AM - that's ridiculous. there is no political or standardized ranking of the candidates. if anything he's been described as more centrist in the media and newspapers. please go educate yourself. where are your sources? dont just blurt things out stupidly

Obama was in the minority party when he was in the Illinois Slate Legislature and got major and once divisive bills passed. at Harvard Law, he was elected president for bipartisan reasons when the Harvard Law Review was racked with issues concerning affirmative action and other contentious issues. He was elected to the senate due to his bipartisan policy propositions.

Posted by Jeff on Jan 10 2008 6:51AM - Great. You run your PRO-WAR! PRO-TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH! ANTI-BROWN PEOPLE! candidate.

Because that's mainstream America right there. The America i know doesn't "talk" to countries that oppose us, we bomb them and kill as many people as possible. Rich people pay taxes? Please! I mean taxes are something the peasants do. People like Bush who were born into money aren't supposed to support useless things like public schools and health care for poor children. If a 12 year old in the ghetto wants health insurance, the little freeloader should get a job! And scary brown people invading our country - forget about it!

You're so right. That's why i'm voting republican in 08!

Posted by Janet Reno on Mar 21 2008 10:33PM - Obama’s efforts to connect to the Republican Party, specifically Bush, and Dick Chaney, of the Halliburton Company, dates back to the Presidents Grandfather, Prescott Bush, and indeed Chaney was once an executive officer of Halliburton.

The American military pounds Iraq with Artillary, bombs, and the like, destroying large sections of cities, and infra-structures, then Halliburton comes in to rebuild. Halliburton and Halliburton associated companies have raked in ten’s of billions.

Obama is just like the BIG HALIBURTAN. Haliburton has contracted to build detention centers in the U.S. similiar to the one in Quantanammo Bay, Cuba. Halliburton does nothing to earn the Two Dollars for each meal an American Serviceman in Iraq eats.

Halliburton was scheduled to take control of the Dubai Ports in The United Arab Emiirate. The deal was canceled when Bush was unable to affect the transfer of the American Ports.

Now we see what some might suspect as similiar financial escapading from the Democrats.

Two years ago, Iraq’s Ministry of Electricity gave a $50 million contract to a start-up security company - Companion- owned by now-indicted businessman (TONY REZKO) Tony Rezko and a onetime Chicago cop, Daniel T. Frawley, to train Iraqi power-plant guards in the United States. An Iraqi leadership change left the deal in limbo. Now the company, Companion Security, is working to revive its contract.
Involved along with Antoin “Tony” Rezco, long time friend and neighbor of Democratic Presidential hopeful Barack Obama, and former cop Daniel T. Frawley, is Aiham Alsammarae. Alsammarae was accused of financial corruption by Iraqi authorities and jailed in Iraq last year before escaping and returning here.

LIKE FATHER LIKE SON
Recently, Obama's campaign staff have been vetted by the IRS to disclose his connection to the criminal money generating underworld. Besides, his connections to the REZCO MAFIA types, his up-coming tax fraud charges — Obama needs to disclose why he is a MUSLIM "PATWANG-FWEEE" and disclose Obama's MUSLIM Farrakhan mob connection to Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ. Its minister, and Obama's spiritual adviser, is the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. In 1982, the church launched Trumpet Newsmagazine; Wright's daughters serve as publisher and executive editor. Every year, the magazine makes awards in various categories. Last year, it gave the Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award to a man it said "truly epitomized greatness." That man is Louis Farrakhan. Farrakhan and Chicago's Trinity United Church are trumpeting Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama as the second coming of the messiah. Obama should stop suppoting our intervention in IRAQ. It’s time to introduce this false, fake Xerox - X box Obama and invite the self-indicting thief plagiarizing pipsqueke "GLORK" Xerox - X box to meet the Buffalo "GAZOWNT-GAZIKKA" Police Department Buffalo Creek. He is MAD!!!

OBAM YOU'RE NO JFK

"GLORK" Obama looks like Alfred E. Newman: "Tales Calculated To Drive You." He is a MUSLIM "Glork" He's MAD!!! Alfred E. Neuman is the fictional mascot of Mad. The face had drifted through American pictography for decades before being claimed by Mad editor Harvey Kurtzman after he spotted it on the bulletin board in the office of Ballantine Books editor Bernard Shir-Cliff, later a contributor to various magazines created by Kurtzman.

Michelle Obama should be ashamed.

"GLORK" Michelle Obama should be ashamed of her separatist-racist connection to Farrakhan and Chicago's Trinity United Church trumpeting Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama as the second coming of the messiah. If Michelle Obama new what her husband the Hope-A-Dope, Fonster Monster Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama did in Harlem, she would wash her wide-open, Hus-suey loving MUSILM mouth out, with twenty-four (24) mule-team double-cross X-boX-BorraX. He is a MUSLIM "Glork" It’s time to introduce this false, fake "GLORK" Xerox - X box Obama and invite the self-indicting thief plagiarizing pipsqueke Xerox - X box to meet the Buffalo "GAZOWNT-GAZIKKA" Police Department Buffalo Creek.

THE SPEECH

The Apologia has arrived and once again the self-indicting, separatist-racist Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama, promises to heal the wounds of the world. The speech is the rude awakening of mass messianism of his campaign. Apologetically, Obama the MUSLIM double-cross X-boX-BorraX has an astonishingly empty two-prawn echelon explanation of his misjudgment.
In the first prawn: with regard to his connection to separatist-racist Rev. Wright; Obama summons voodoo and juju to express slavery as beginning and ending with the Rev. Wright.
In the second prawn: Obama's speech takes credit for Ashley's dream. A dream of unity Martin Luther King, Jr. borrowed from Ashley for his historic "I Have A Dream" speech. In Obama's speech, the connective bond Ashley, the elderly black man and Obama's grandmother share; represents Obama's self-indicting rise to the Harvard Yard. For Obama, the grand flag of language is the semi-fore of words, bestowed upon our nation by the messiah-alumni from Harvard. Obama's Swoon-Song Apologia to the nation represents a failed hymn a hymn that fails to heal the nation, repair the world, or make this time different than all the rest. Obama's speech is a brilliant failure.
