    You are either not funny or just live to antagonize.

    If this stuff keeps building up at its current pace, it will backfire on the Republicans.

    Hillary didn't get the respect she deserved.....but Michelle Obama is a "baby mama." Nice way to win the women's vote.

    Given the swift-boat attacks that dogged Kerry, who had to focus X amount of time debunking those rumors rather than talking Iraq and domestic policy, this is a smart move for Obama. If you don't feel like you've got anything to hide, address the rumors head on through the site, debunk them and keep your focus on the issues Americans are really worried about.
     
  6. Kerry didn't debunk anything because they weren't rumors. They were the truth.

    Saw they were the truth, they were still cheap shots given that one candidate risked his life to serve in the U.S. armed forces and fighting overseas while the other ducked out, and those ads diverted people from that fact.

    Bottom line, Obama's smart for creating this Web site given what he's gone through and what lies ahead.

    I'm telling you, the McCain people are meeting right now about what a headache some of this crap will be for them and what to do about it.

    It's really tricky for him.

    They brung him to the dance. I have little sympathy.

    Dead-on. We're enduring these highest-level creeps, right now, directly because of the sustained, lockstep support of douches of this ilk.

    So, now what?
