Title: Well, Obama did it.... zero gaffes this week...
Post by: 240 is Back on August 28, 2008, 08:03:40 PM
42 minute speech, no gaffes.

Both Clintons spoke.  Michelle spoke.  Gore spoke.  Biden spoke.  Obama delivered SPECIFIC details.

The only major criticisms?  the repubs didn't like the stage?

if THAT is the only problem they could find this week, I think mccain should be nervous.  No way he tops 76,000 people going apeshit after a near-perfect speech.  Open air, fireworks, beautiful sky, and damn near 80,000 people scremaing for change in America.

first played the race card again although i dont really mind it, its bush league(no pun intended)

The amount of programs that he wants to incoperate while still maintaining he will cut taxes  ::) Ive said it before ill say it again mark my words whoever gets into office will raise taxes on the middle class it is unavoidable.

Saying he will lower taxes for 95% of the middle class while not explaining how capital gains tax will effect them.

Ending or dependence on foreign oil in 10 years, again this will take butt loads of money...which taxing only the big companies wont pay for.

Giving tax breaks to companies that stay in country wont work b/c it will still be cheaper for them to outsource more than likely.

Apparently he will "go over the national budget line by line" personally and cut out all unnecessary spending. ::)

Ill stop there...

"I realize that I am not the likeliest candidate for this office. I don't fit the typical pedigree"

pedigree:

1. an ancestral line; line of descent; lineage; ancestry. 
2. a genealogical table, chart, list, or record, esp. of a purebred animal. 
3. distinguished, excellent, or pure ancestry. 
4. derivation, origin, or history: the pedigree of a word.

but he backed off - he's always said "i dont LOOK the same"  Now it's pedigree.  yeah, it's a minor race card infraction - but to say "race card" puts it in the same league as mckinney screaming about only being searched because of her skin color.

when you group them, you lose cred by being a drama queen, saying 1 is as bad as the other

That's true.  Everyone expected a black candidate and they got a MULATTO.  Weird. 

This guy is a joke with no substance and no real plan.  Jimmy Carter round 2.

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to higher taxes and interest rates (under Carter it was 10% for home loans I'm told) so that I can pay for the bottom of the barrel to sit at home.  Sweet! ::)

Weird.  Tonight, obama used specifics, and you're the one using intangible, airy metaphors.

I guess when you don't have any substance, you have to get all metaphysical n shit.
I'm glad obama finally manned up with specifics. 

I look fwd to the day when you do the same.

Obama is running on promises of change and NO TRACK RECORD TO SUPPORT HIS CLAIMS/PROMISE.

McCain has a long track record of working with Democrats, defending the nation, being a senator, many legislative accomplishments. 

Barack has nothing but a teleprompter and empty words.

omg man seriously.

He lad out no specifics, he is still doing what Hillary, and McCain have been accusing him of - talking about issues but offering no way of actually dealing with them

End gas dependence in 10 years? How, no really with windmills, and solar energy panels, get real.

Cut taxes? How, oh that's right you don't know Economics like other people yet you believe whatever he says.

That is fine you can believe for change but let the people that can do math, hold the truth and the fact of the matter - that Obama can't do these things he says he can do, and it's not a matter of trying harder, but a matter of taxing harder to the brink of no return (no pun intended)

Once again for the reading impaired he made PLEDGES, he did not give any specifics.

29 specifics tonight.  You can like it, or you can hate it.  But you can't deny he did break down some details.

OMG bro, you are smarter than that!  I have read your posts in the past.  Once you come back down of the Obama Euphoria you will realize everyone has a plan with specifics...IT'S ALL ABOUT THE EXECUTION AND HE HAS SHOWN ZERO (0) ABILITY TO ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING AS A SENATOR AND YOU THINK HE SHOULD BE PROMOTED?

or did I jump the gun?

A purple dinosaur promising free lollipops for America could beat mccain.

People are sick of being lied to and treated like shit by Bush and cheney.

Obama is very inexperienced, that's obvious.

But he treats people nicely.  Bush/cheney say their policy rolls, even if 99% of america is against it.  Is that democracy?  Spitting in eye of people telling them you care not what they want?

No, and until mccain distances himself from Bush, he'll be viewed the same way.

To those who chose not to educate themselves and fall for the Liberal misdirection, you are correct.  Will that be enough to beat McCain?  Eventually people will understand GWB isn't running for a 3rd term.  McCain was known for being a "Maverick" long before this nomination.  I think he stands a really good chance at convincing anyone but a committed Liberal. 

We will see, he is the underdog!
