    Hillary will take this argument to the democrat national convention and maybe to the supreme court via appeals.

    An excerpt, from ABC’s news story:

    “When a bizarre man making preposterous and lurid claims about Obama rears his head on the internet and in their midst, many embrace him — as covered in The New Republic Here and Here.”

    Going to Washington…was an excellent idea! Good job, Larry!!!

    Sunday, June 1, 2008

    Obama bomb (bombs – plural?) to be dropped Monday On Fox, Neil Cavuto, June 2, 4pm (ET?) has an “explosive” bomb to release on Obama.

    Larry Johnson at NoQuarter has a bomb to release on Obama at 9am Monday.

    Are they the same bomb or different bombs?

    Is it (finally) the tape release of Michelle Obama bitching about “whitey”?

    Is their more than one explosive tape with her rants on it?

    Will American obamabots wake up in time before it’s too late?

    Will the media grow some balls and gain some ETHICS before it’s too late?

    stay tuned……

    I wonder if this Neil Cavuto “bomb” has anything to do with Obama attending Wright’s Hate America sermon.

    Yeah, I saw the newsletter.

    The Obama campaign claims that he was in Miami for a speech to La Raza, and therefore couldn’t have been at Trinity United Church of Christ on July 22. As their proof, they have provided a receipt from a charter jet company, that scheduled a flight by a small jet from Chicago to Miami at 8:50 AM. Obviously, there’s no way he was at the 11:00 AM sermon.

    But wait. He was at the 7:15 AM sermon, and he was out the door quickly at the end of the service at 8:15. With a police escort, and police blocking all cross traffic at stoplights, it wouldn’t be hard to get from Trinity United to the airport in 20-25 minutes.

    Obama arrived late for his 1:30 PM speech in Miami, arriving at 1:50 PM (12:50 PM Chicago time). Charter jets cruise at around 500-550 MPH. Do the math. I noticed also that the DVD of Wright’s sermon on July 22, which has been for sale on the church website, musteriously vanished on March 18.

    Good Evening, EVERYONE…

    Happy Birthday to Bon, Carly and Shary!!!

    I want to suggest that we continue to focus to the websites and blogs that will spread the word! It is a task that must continue to counter the 400 PAID

    Obama bloggers that stalk us daily. Please go to as many sites as you can and post and blog..The pen is mightier than the sword!!

    BTW, they claim Florida and Michigan were illegal elections, so I guess the TERM ELECTION FRAUD is their loophole…Hmm..If they certify the votes, then it is an election and all votes must count..Looks like FL is going to be going back to the Supreme Court!

    Remember when they declared FL to stop the votes..on a side note that stated this JUDGMENT is ONLY for Bush VS GORE! So, that is where they can use that JUDGMENT to counter what took place yesterday! And that is why they are saying this decision is different from 2000, BUT, Once the ELECTION is certified in the those states, it is then recognized as a LEGAL ELECTION!

    Noun- 1. election fraud – misrepresentation or alteration of the true results of an election

    Be Blessed!!

    PS..LARRY…I don’t believe Donna Brazile EVER sent me any emails calling you names or even addressing you. I have contact with her via email, so I don’t know that she ever said anything about you to me, but the SD’s did make those statements and I forwarded those to you. If you have other emails from her from others, then you have every right to speak to her and anyone else making up stories as they go and saying stuff to your MAMA..NO one talks about my MAMA..lol, but I am just saying that she has never said anything to me about you that I recall. I checked all my email exchanges with her..Not one has anything about you in them..so..this is news to me!

    Stay Safe!!

    How can anyone claim that the Florida and Michigan primaries were illegal elections? It seems that there are new commissioners in some cities, and new referendums passed for various issues. And Florida passed a property tax initiative. Are all of these actions illegal as well? I completely disagree with Rep. Wexler for his Obama support, and I think the 1/2 vote concept is a farce.

    I sincerely hope that Harold Ickes and Lanny Davis can convince Sen. Clinton to stay put, all the way to Denver if necessary.

    The Huffington Post / 09-01-07: “Since the Dem debate a few days ago a lot of people have understandably been taking shots at Tim Russert for his often small-minded ‘gotcha’ questions and his constant references to Bill Clinton. Some Hillary backers are seething about Russert; indeed, in a conference call with big donors, Hillary pollster Mark Penn and other supporters repeatedly griped about Russert’s approach, with one supporter saying that he ‘should be shot.’ It’s worth noting, however, that there’s a long history here. Russert has been trying to catch out Hillary with ‘gotcha’ questions about Bill and other things for years now – in fact, his efforts to do this date all the way back to Hillary’s first Senate campaign in 2000. And then, as now, the Hillary folks were mighty pissed off with him. The bad blood goes way back:” http://theseedsof9-11.com
