We will see Bush and Cheney's financial Records before we see the Clintons! Pennsylvania - please help them get out of this race. PLEASE!

Much obamadoo about nothing.

Obama is unelectable.

His negatives are rapidly rising with Wright, Moss, Rezko, Crown and God only knows what else will come out about him. He's too risky for the Dems to nominate.

What kind of man, what kind of father would subject his own part white children to the racist, anti-white, anti-American, anti-semitic, pro-Farakhaan, black supremecy, nation of islam supporter Jeremiah Wright who believes that the "U.s. Govt created AIDS to kill black people?"
Lunacy! THIS is the man Obama calls his "mentor"? WHY?

Obama's new pastor Moss is just as bad as WRight. Check out his Easter "sermon" on youtube. It's appalling.

These toxic black preachers are poisoning the minds of youth and created self fulfilling prophecies of hate and resentment.

Obama's defiant refusal to completely disassociate himself from these toxic preachers is calling into serious question his character and judgment. It's ugly and most certainly not Presidential.

This is NEVER going away and deems Obama unlectable to anything.

*VOTE SMART! VOTE HILLARY!
Donate now to Hillary.

Boycott Oprah. She's a traitor to women, on whose backs she made her billions.

You know, the really sad thing about this Democratic race is that it somewhat shows our willingness to accept the superficial nature of candidates' personae. --As long as the cover looks appealing and the write-up on the inside bookcover jacket says what we want to hear, we buy the book.... We later find out that the stories in the book were not true. We're disillusioned, but the author walks off with $$$$, ---in this case, possibly the presidency. Would you rather elect a known fabricator, with a closet-full of missing subpoenaed documents and a truckload of baggage ---all relating to dishonesty, financial fraud, payoffs, and favors? Or a candidate whose personal spiritual advisor and church spew out racially-charged messages?

How did Obama write off his Rezko in kind gifts?

Clinton - Forget about your bloated ego... and get out of the way of the NEW Democratic Party ! America needs a 21st Century Candidate -

Barack Obama for President of the UNITED States of America.

how could hil-liar-y possibly be asked to produce what the other candidates have already made public ???

the other candidates are not being shot at by snipers

Ok. Let's see the detail and all of the Clinton tax records for the same period of time NOW. Not spin. Media - please do your job!!

JACK AND KATE ABOVE show two important things that are all too typical of HILLIARY supporters;

a) they lie just like their leader, HILLIARY - if this is no big deal like they say so emphatically above, then why does HILLIARY not release the records ?? reason: they are liars - if it were not a big deal, the records would have already been released

b) hilliary supporters are sexist bigots - look what jack and kate say about oprah - also above

their own words betray their true motivations and lack of character

hilliary, stop choosing to be a divider - look at your negative influence - you are turning the people behind you into lying bigots

TAX RETURNS,TAX RETURNS,TAX RETURNS.
What is she hidding?

Lately, I keep noticing supporters of HRC keep going off topic with their comments on a lot of the blogs and online news articles lately such as the one by Jake & Kate above .

I am sure they are feeling disappointed that HRC are turning out to be what Obama's supporters have been claiming that she is all along.

From the Bosnia "misspoke" wink wink, and "i am the most transparent" wink wink and so on and so forth. It just never stops.

I am sure, just as all those people who are tired of defending Bill Clinton all those years ago, i am sure people like Jake will tire too.

i really pity them. i know it's never easy to accept a defeat but this is not a game, it's their own future.

Rezko Auchi and HOODWINK BAMBOOZLE and OKEY_DOKE Chickens coming home to roost. GOD DAMN AMERICA I'VE NEVER BEEN PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN IN MY ADULT LIFE. 92% OF THE BLACK VOTE UNITER? DIVIDER, TRUTH LIE, FACT UNELECTABLE!

It's amazing how different the "Obama Campaign" is to Obama's message of "new politics, hope, change"... demanding this and demanding that-all while they are disenfranchising voters in Florida and Michigan.
If Senator Obama wins the nomination without the re votes in Michigan and Florida- there will be a negative cloud over his nomination..a what if?
And when Obama Spring Fever has faded and we face a sobering November and the general election- experience will take center stage.

I'm trying to get a fun-but-hopefully-effective movement started: the Hillary Clinton Tax Fax. I've put her campaign's main fax numbers (and a link to her state-by-state office finder) at the above link, with instructions. The idea's for everyone who's filing their own taxes to make a copy, black out any identifying info, add a "produce your taxes - it's easy!" type note, and fax it to Hillary.

If you like the idea, please (a) do it, and (b) feel free to circulate the idea, link to my link, etc.!

Thanks!

hillary used the excuse "I say millions of words a day" as the reason she lied about the sniper fire

one million words per day (singular) would not be "millionS" (plural) but it would still be over 11 words per second - for 24 hours straight !

no wonder we are ALL sick of her

SHE WON'T SHUT UP

talk about a challenge ...
.....now that hillary has used the excuse "I say millions of words a day" as the reason she lied about the sniper fire in Bosnia, let's see what a challenge that would be.

To speak one million words in one day would require about a dozen words per second - for 24 hours straight - NONSTOP !

Obama-girl has it right - hillary, you need to shut up once in a while.

Gotta love it. Just another example of the Obama campaign trying to have it both ways. Attack Hillary over not releasing her tax records but at the same time refuse to release the documnets from Obamas time as a member of the IL legilature. Once again another fine example of the Obama way. Do as he says not as he does.

I've been to many different places around the world as well and I find it hard to believe, regardless of this fact, that I would ever forget the exact details of a trip if I had been fired on or was in the vicinity of gun fire upon getting off of a plane. That is just pure nonsense.

I want to see Obama's tax records from his Illinois Senate days. And also Blagojevich's early records for posterity's sake.

Until there is evidence found that in Obama's political career that he has ever uttered racial slurs or made anti-american comments, the Rev Wright issue is simply the politics of fear being strung along by those who had no intention of voting for him anyway.

There is also no evidence that he has been preaching these sermons for the last 20years, I find that to be totally dishonest when the dates of the sermons are included on the tape, and I don't know who has a 100% record of attendance, not even the pastor himself.

I also find it dishonest the distortion of the comparison to a "selected" relative who had anti-white sentiments, to a blood relative that had anti black sentiments. Verb, subject and agreement of the English language says that the point was that he could not disown Wright because he also considered him to be a member of his family just like his grandmother, he wasn't comparing what they said, just that both relatives were guilty but they are both very important in his life.

This campaign has certainly brought out to me the value of having an education and the ability to make decisions based on common sense and not from media sound bites or so called expert views.

Jack & Kate - Sadly, you tipify how the Clinton's are running their campaign. Instead of talking about the issues, you hurl insults and lies while accusing the other side of hurling insults and lies. You accuse individuals of being raceist and then make raceist and bigoted statements. What good does this do either candidate? How does this advance the public discourse?

Is it your aim to support a politically progressive movement in this election or to tear down individuals with lies and insults?

I really hope you can find the time to address the anger and hatred that resides inside your person instead of using other people as an excuse to let that sort of uglyness out.

I pity you and pray for you.

Best,
d.t.corley

Obama didn't disinfranchise voters in FL and MI- The state democratic parties did by ignoring the rules as did HRC, campaining in both states though she said she wouldn't. Get the facts right- or did you misspeak?

Jake and Kate appear to me to be Limbaugh fraudsters masquerading as Clintonites to try and extend the race.

Is this bragging rights to publish tax returns. They should be a private matter, not a political one. Hillary should not have to publish her returns, nor should anyone else.

Who needs to shut up and go home is Obama. Why do you want Hillary to drop out of the race? When Obama was behind did he drop out? I don't think so. There are plenty of states left and Obama is afraid. That's probably why he has spent like 1 million dollar in a four day TV ad blitz. Be afraid, very afraid.

HILLARY/GORE/MCCAIN but never NOBAMA!

Please stop perpetuating the error of misspelling the outrageously simple word "its."

"It's" is a contraction of "it is." When you use a contraction, stop to re-read the sentence in its full form, as follows: "It has posted returns on it is Web site." As you can see (I hope), this is incorrect. Does Tribune.com need a proofreader? My rate is fair and negotiable.

It appears from the tax returns that from 2000 to 2004, Obama donated less than 1% of his income to charity. See http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aHdvU_NJzIcI&refer=home
for more.

Obama is always ready to grab other people's money (via taxes) to spend on his pet projects, but isn't willing to use his own, except to shovel money at Rev. Jeremiah Wright's racist church.

I could care less if
Mr. O-BLAH-BLAH-ma puts any of his information on-line. Why is he trying to make a big deal about Clinton's income? Bill Clinton and Hillary have authored books, own property, and Bill can charge $100,000 at any speaking engagement. Jesse Jackson can request $10,000 for a speech. So what is the big deal?

I just wish that O-BLAH-ma would quit crying about everything.

Barack rhymes w/ Iraq, who the hell can vote for this goofy looking man w/ the completely unamerican name like Barack Obama! John McCain now there's an american name!

Josh,

Don't mean to be a jerk, but you need to check your facts. Obama has stated that the decision to stay or drop out of the race is Hillary's and her's alone. In addition, if you did the math on those remaining states you would see that Hillary has about a "5%" as some in the press are saying of winning.

Answer me this, would she even still be IN the race if her name were not Clinton?

If you want to know where Barack's money is going or where it came from then follow the link in the article! The whole point is the information is publicly available you racist, facist Aryians!

I'd peg "Jack and Kate" as covert McCain supporters.

At least be honest about it, you know?

There is not a thing wrong with Barac Obama except he has not chosen his running mate to be his vice-president. That person should be Bill Richardson who has the same values as Mr Obama and the same goals. I agreed whole heartedly with their Christian Values and morals, and am voting for Obama and the Changes this country needs

It doesn't matter what her last name is. She is a fighter and we will fight with her until the end. At the beginning I was torn between Hillary and Obama and I almost voted for him but he sounded too preachy and couldn't quite trust him and I didn't know why. Call it - the sixth sense :) but now I know more and I'm glad my vote went for Hillary. Peace bro!

Jack & Kate why dont you just go register as Republicans right now ? What Democrats need right now is U-N-I-T-Y. Let Hillary continue to run as long as she wants but STOP WITH THE OFF TOPIC NEGATIVITY PLEASE.

Hillary is losing in the total delegates, the popular vote, and fundraising aka the 3 things that matter in getting nominated by your party. Her chances of winning are statistically about 9% but realistically are 0% this is a simple fact of reality that her supporters need to come to grips with.

Her supporters also need to realize that a UNITED Democratic party is a sure fire win in Nov, whereas a divided party will be a 50-50 toss up; which is a risk that this country just cannot afford. I dont understand the point of attempting to tear down our leading candidate with innane innuendo, hyperbole, rhetoric, and speculation.

I just dont understand the end game with this Jeramiah Wright nonsense. Is Sen Obama going to institute reverse Jim Crow where all whites are de jure second class citizens? The ex pastor that preached at his church said controversial things, but by ALL accounts (black/white cross denominational) Rev Wright is a well known and respected pastor. Personally i didnt really think that the race related comments were all that inflammatory, and they were fairly accurate although certainly not politcally correct things to say. As far as G** D**N America statement if you actually listen to the context of the speech he was saying that good Christians cannot blindly support an unjust and immoral government. He did use a poor choice of words that make a terrible soundbyte but once again these are Wrights words, not Sen.Obama's. As far as the chickens coming home to roost? That statement may not be politically popular but it is true to a large degree. Although no one deserved to die on 09/11/01 the reasons we were attacked have clearly been laid out by the 911 Commision and various CIA/government reports, please read "Imperial Hubris" by Michael Scheyuer the entire 540 page book essentially says that 09/11 was a chickens coming home to roost situation. It may not be something that the average everyday Joe wants to hear, but foreign policies can have far reaching consequences. Just ask King George after levying the Stamp Tax, the Tea Tax, quatering red coats on private farms, and attacking "terrorists" at Lexington and Concord :)

Anyway this post is long enough so i will just end by saying that there IS a such thing as a Phyrric victory and Hillary Clinton and her supporters need to familiarize themselves with that term.

What is sad about Hillary is that she sounds and acts more and more like an old school Chicago pol. What has happened to the freshness and transparency of the early Clinton years? Perhaps Hillary and Bill have become too old, too rich, and too isolated to even begin to recapture her stature and charisma from the 1980's. So it must now be Obama time.

Do the tax returns show the $21,000 he tithed to his RACIST preacher buddy?

All while his children sat in the pews with him and his "proud of the country for the first time in my adult life" wife.

SHAME ON THE RACIST OBAMA'S!

Don't miss the irony of this!

'My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it'.
Barack Obama

Typical for the Clintons. HRC has no chance of getting elected in November. This race is over and she needs to drop out immediately for the good of the Democratic cause. Step aside Hillary, you have lost.

Hillary is misstating her tax records. When she's done, they'll be online. After she wins the general election.

Let's get back to issues instead of trying to find out what Hillary's hiding. Rev. Wright, a white looking man, from the 60's who ministered to a black church in the inner city of chicago for over 30 years. Of course Rev. Wright would not be Hillary's pastor, she would not be a member of a black church.

As new senator, Obamas priorities. What will be his priorities as Presedent?

Obama said oops on 6 state Senate votes
He pushed the wrong button, he asserted at the time. Two of the admitted flubs were on hotly contested issues.
By Peter Wallsten, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
January 24, 2008
Barack Obama angered fellow Democrats in the Illinois Senate when he voted to strip millions of dollars from a child welfare office on Chicago's West Side. But Obama had a ready explanation: He goofed.

"I was not aware that I had voted no," he said that day in June 2002, asking that the record be changed to reflect that he "intended to vote yes."

That was not the only misfire for the former civil rights attorney first elected to the state Senate in 1996. During his eight years in state office, Obama cast more than 4,000 votes. Of those, according to transcripts of the proceedings in Springfield, he hit the wrong button at least six times.

The rules allow state lawmakers to clear up a mishap if they suffered from a momentary case of stumbly fingers or a lapse in attention. Correcting the record is common practice in the Illinois Legislature, where lawmakers routinely cast numerous votes in a hurry.

But some lawmakers say the practice also offers a relatively painless way to placate both sides of a difficult issue. Even if a lawmaker admits an error, the actual vote stands and the official record merely shows the senator's "intent."

No one has accused Obama, now a U.S. Senator and a leading candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, of changing votes to play both sides, and an Obama spokesman called that idea "absurd."

But Obama has come under fire from Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York and former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina for his frequent use of another oddity of Illinois politics: voting "present" rather than casting up-or-down votes on controversial measures.

"It is very difficult having a straight-up debate with you, because you never take responsibility for any vote, and that has been a pattern," Clinton told him in a debate Monday.

Tommy Vietor, an Obama spokesman, said the mistaken votes were not meaningful. "In Illinois, legislators often have just a few seconds to cast a vote, so after thousands of votes they're bound to make a few mistakes," he said. Referring to Clinton's vote to authorize the war in Iraq and her support for a bankruptcy measure, Vietor added, "The real problem is when Democrats vote like Republicans."

Four of Obama's admitted flubs drew little controversy.

On March 19, 1997, he announced he had fumbled an election-reform vote the day before, on a measure that passed 51 to 6: "I was trying to vote yes on this, and I was recorded as a no," he said. The next day, he acknowledged voting "present" on a key telecommunications vote.

He stood on March 11, 1999, to take back his vote against legislation to end good-behavior credits for certain felons in county jails. "I pressed the wrong button on that," he said.

Obama was the lone dissenter on Feb. 24, 2000, against 57 yeas for a ban on human cloning.
"I pressed the wrong button by accident," he said.

But two of Obama's bumbles came on more-sensitive topics. On Nov. 14, 1997, he backed
Legislation to permit riverboat casinos to operate even when the boats were dockside.

The measure, pushed by the gambling industry and fought by church groups whose support Obama
Was seeking, passed with two "yeas" to spare -- including Obama's. Moments after its passage he
Rose to say, "I'd like to be recorded as a no vote," explaining that he had mistakenly voted for it.

Obama would later develop a reputation as a critic of the gambling industry, and he voted against
A similar measure two years later. But he was clearly confused about how to handle the issue at the
Time of his first vote, telling a church group on a 1998 campaign questionnaire that he was "undecided"
About whether he backed an expansion of riverboat gambling. And, months earlier, he had voted in
Favor of a version of the bill.

The senator who led the opposition to the gambling measure, Republican Todd Sieben, said he took
Obama at his word that the initial vote was an error. But Sieben also said the thin margin of victory
Was a sign that perhaps there was more to the vote than met the eye. "He was obviously paying
Attention to this vote. It was a major, major issue in the state, and it was a long debate,
" Sieben said. "The inadvertent 'Oops, I missed the switch' -- I'd be kind of skeptical of that."

On June 11, 2002, Obama's vote sparked a confrontation after he joined Republicans to block
Democrats trying to override a veto by GOP Gov. George Ryan of a $2-million allotment for the
West Chicago child welfare office.

Shortly afterward, Obama chastised Republicans for their "sanctimony" in claiming that only
They had the mettle to make tough choices in a tight budget year. And he called for "responsible
Budgeting."

A fellow Democrat suddenly seethed with anger. "You got a lot of nerve to talk about being responsible,"
Said Sen. Rickey Hendon, accusing Obama of voting to close the child welfare office.

Obama replied right away. "I understand Sen. Hendon's anger. . . . I was not aware that I had voted
No on that last -- last piece of legislation," he said.

Obama asked that the record reflect that he meant to vote yes. Then he requested that Hendon
"ask me about a vote before he names me on the floor."

Hendon declined to discuss the episode. "I try to block out unpleasant memories," said Hendon,
Who has endorsed Obama. "If I tried really hard to remember it, I probably could, but I'm not going to
try hard because I'm supporting the senator all the way."

Hendon said "it happens" that senators press the wrong button. But he was quick to add: "I've never done it."

1995 At age 33, Obama wrote "Dreams from My Father, A Story of Race and Inheritance."

In the period from high school in Hawaii, to Columbia University and then to the streets of Chicago as a community organizer, Obama is the classic angry young black man, describing his world thusly:

"We were always playing on the white man's court -- by the white man's rules. If the principal, or the coach, or a teacher wanted to spit in your face, he could, because he had the power and you didn't. The only thing you could choose was withdrawal into a smaller and smaller coil of rage."

Obama once described the white race as "that ghostly figure that haunted black dreams."

"That hate hadn't gone away," he wrote, blaming "white people -- some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives."

1983
During college, Obama disapproved of what he called other "half-breeds" who gravitated toward whites instead of blacks. And yet after college, he once fell in love with a white woman, only to push her away when he concluded he would have to assimilate into her world, not the other way around. He later married a black woman.

In "Dreams," Obama wrote that he found solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against his mother’s race."

A must read for Obama supporters ...

I think it is funny when the people who support Hillary want even more info on Senator Obama when their own candidate hasn't even released anything herself yet.

I am sure that Hillary just misspoke when she said that she was shot at, I mean, how many times has that happened to her in her life? It does not seem plausible to forget something like that to me especially since it would have been the only time in her life that this would had happened to her.

She is a woman, and most of the woman supporting her are basically supporting her because they are women too and they think that it is their time. They like what they hear from her and she has proven to be someone that they can agree with on many issues of concern to them.To be sure many Negros are supporting Senator Obama because of his skin color, but also for the very same reasons that Hillary's supporters support her, is that any different than the woman supporting Hillary?

I am a white southern man who voted for Senator Obama because he is the only candidate in either major party who is really talking about changing the way that politics is done here in the United States. When I look at his support I see the largest amount of diversity, people of all ages, races, economic backrounds rallying around an idea and candidate whos time has come. We can be a better nation, we can put aside our differences and strive to heal our past and improve our future.

I fear he won't be courageous enough to challange long held democratic dogmas that have helped to seperate us as a nation as he goes after long held republican domaga that has done the same. Most of us in this country are tired of seeing our nation not be all that it can be due to the struggle of power for the few instead of the good of the many.

Senator Obama presents our best chance right now to begin to turn the ship, but it will take more than just him, it will take all of us letting go of our preconceived ideas and looking at every matter again in a fresh light. It will take us all getting rid of the "What's in it for me?" mentality and looking deep into ourselves and asking what is best for us as a nation, a people, a member of the human race.

I don't agree with a lot of what Senator Obama has to say on a number of topics, global warming for one, but I do think that we all have a chance to do and be better than we are today when it comes to this issue. We as Americans, not democrats or republicans, all of us supported the mission to send a man to the moon. We take it for granted today because that is history to most of us, but there were doubters back then who said that it could never be done, that it would cost too much even if it could be done. Today we all live better lives for what came out of the space program, things like microwave ovens and faster, smaller and cheaper computers. The entire world has been changed because of what a generation of people supported.

We have that chance again today. We can have a better system of fuel, safer, cheaper, cleaner, more affordable in the long run. We can help bring peace and prosperity to areas of the world that now know only conflict and poverty. While this is developing it will be necessary to explore for and use the system that brought us to where we are today. Gas and coal and oil are not our future, nor the worlds. We should responsibly use it today and get the cost of it down as cheap as possible so that we can fuel the growth that will be needed to pay for the investment in our future. There are many things that we as a nation spend our money on now that can be freed up too to help spur this initative.

America, rise up and support the only person who is even talking anything close to bringing this kind of change, The Senator from the great state of Illinois, Senator Barak Obama.

TIME TO COME CLEAN CLINTON!

Oh wait that's impossible! Too much corruption to hide! Maybe just continue to LIE!!

ABC (Anybody But Clinton[s])

The Radioactive preacher will not go over well. Assuming Obama gets the nomination (wake up! He will!), then The Radioactive Preacher will certainly cost him several states in the south. This will be beaten to death this fall, we will be hearing 'god damn America' over and over in campaign ads, etc... But the bright side is, nobody will be saying he's a Muslim anymore!

Hurrah! for Jack & Kate (above) ... they tell it like it is!

I wonder if the Obamas recognized income from the sweetheart vacant lot purchase from Rezko since they rec'd a benefit below market value?

REALITY ABOVE HAS GOT IT RIGHT

NO MORE BUSH/CLINTON

Well, there may be some solace for all you liberal Dems.

The Florida Democrat Congressman superdelegate who lucked into Foley's seat is now writng that neither of your favorites should win.

He's recommending an Al Gore comeback as the only way to salvage the Democrat party's November chances.

But if the Obama and Clinton enthusiasts don't care for this idea --- well, just carry on!

Good job, Kathryn(above)!

Your research/analysis and
comments provide deep insight into Sen.Obama's
character.

That the main stream media has not vetted Sen. Obama is obvious.

It is obvious that Sen. Obama has disowned his white heritage and community in favor of a black militant community.

Why he joined Rev. Wright's church and remains there to this day is also obvious.

In my opinion, Sen. Obama is a black racist.

His wife is a black militant.

The charter of their church as well as the anti-white/anti-American rantings of his minister
give them comfort and support and reinforce their decisions to embrace black liberation philosophy.

The media and the DNC need to ask hard questions and they have not done so.

If Sen. Obama becomes the nominee, they will regret it.

If he becomes President, we will all regret it.
