5. I didn't see it either!
I've been looking for clips on line and can't find anything, and her show site doesn't archive the way Comedy Central does... :(

8. The only thing I can think of is it was pre-empted by Bush's press conference
on Wednesday...

23. During the 2004 Democratic convention Obama was inspirational.
When he speaks he gives you hope. If he were half the man he portrays, he’d be OK.

I would like to hear him talk more about holding the White House accountable.

30. No. There's a great many things that are right
about him that have nothing to do with Senator Clinton.

25. You know, I somehow doubt a white guy
who was President of Harvard Law Review, a civil rights attorney, community activist, and accomplished state legislator and who had a solid record of achievement in the Senate would be called an 'empty suit.'

He's got to work twice as hard for some folks.

P.S. Anyone who thinks he's an empty suit is a moron.

who want change in our government without the "business as usual" tag stuck on their big toe.

32. Ahhh...treadmills are a hard lot for anything to get along with.
Edited on Sat Oct-20-07 12:07 AM by wlucinda
You have my sympathies.

My tread refuses to mill. :eyes:
Gotta admit, I look pretty silly marching in place. I just know the damn thing is silently laughing at me.
The ski-pole handles still like me though, so I soldier on. :thumbsup:

15. well i guess there`s a lot of people who are`t buying this--->
"Barack Cheney Obama, fresh from his Slime Hillary Clinton gig on the Tonight Show, today proudly continues his Slime Hillary Clinton tour - with Ripublicans joining him as an added attraction in Obama’s Chicago Circus of the Ridiculous."


"Hillary Clinton strategist Mark Penn has responded to the Obama/Ripublican Von Ribbentrop Pact"


Dick Cheney loves attacking Democrats. Obama and Cheney are two of a kind.


so obama is stinky,wastes money,is related to and really is the same as cheney, runs a circus,and is ripublican

german...wow! that obama is really something!...now if "hillary is 44" would just say who they are so we could see who is

running this smear machine.

39. I've got a feeling Obama will cause some surprises in Iowa and NH.
(And I'm a Kucinich supporter.) Obama has more contributors giving less money per capita than the others. He's captured the imagination of younger voters who are apt to have cell phones and are not polled. If they vote (big if), he could do very well.
