58% Say Obama Denounced Wright for Political Convenience, not Outrage
Obama's credibility is very low among Americans when it comes to the latest Wright debacle. A new Rasmussen poll shows he's viewed as a phony:

2. One thing I do know is that Clinton voted for the IWR out of political convenience
and that vote has led the deaths of hundred of thousands of people, and has made Iraq a living hell

Over 20 Democrats in the Senate and one republican voted against the IWR, because they knew over riding the War Powers Act was WRONG

10. The IWR IS the real issue. It IS the reason some say we won Congress in 2006
Edited on Fri May-02-08 11:59 AM by still_one
Is Wright the "REAL" issue

or are the deaths the U.S. caused in Iraq the issue?

It is that war that has led to the high energy and food prices also

but that is nothing compared to the families that have been destroyed because of it

Yeah, that is all we need to do is nominate someone who ENABLED THAT WAR

I went through the Viet Nam era, and the older I get, the dumber I realize people are, especially politicians, they never change

3. Back from the grave, I see.
I think there is more pressing news at the moment.

Anyway, ignored.
