Obama opens mouth and inserts foot

[Taxmyth]

According to an account posted online on The Huffington Post, Obama was answering a question about what he would look for in a running mate if he wins the nomination. "I would like somebody who knows about a bunch of stuff that I'm not as expert on," he replied. "I think a lot of people assume that might be some kind of military thing to make me look more commander-in-chief-like. Ironically, this is an area -- foreign policy is the area where I am probably most confident that I know more and understand the world better than Senator Clinton or Senator McCain."

Clinton took exception when asked about the comment while making the rounds of the morning TV shows in advance of the long-awaited testimony today by General David Petraeus, the top US commander in Iraq, and Ambassador Ryan Crocker, the top US diplomat.

She laughed, actually, before responding on Fox News. "Well I’m somewhat shocked by that since I don’t see any evidence of it," she said. "This is kind of hard to square with his failure to ever have a single policy hearing on the only responsibility he was given, chairing the European and NATO subcommittee the foreign relations committee.

[chascarrillo]

1. "She laughed, actually, before responding on Fox News."

All you need to know.

[Mooney]

9. Exactly.

Once again, why does anyone still pay attention to what she has to say?

[Tellurian]

49. Hillary just nailed Obama's feet squarely to the floor.

Obama is beginning to sound more like Bush every day.. dunce in waiting..

[Why Syzygy]

61. She's a snot. What evidence does SHE have? SNIPER FIRE?

Has Obama ever hit her with that? No. He isn't the same level of slime she is.

[Tellurian]

70. Face it.. Obama is an arrogant, stumbling sham of a politician..

and in no way qualified to be the Dem nominee, nevermind the next President.

[Why Syzygy]

77. I'm in the throng of folks who find him inspiring.

You and HilLIARy should take a long cold look in a mirror.

[Tellurian]

101. And Obama's Pastor inspired him..

so thats where you're at!

no thanks!

[Why Syzygy]

119. Yes, I take truth wherever it is regardless of color.

I can see you're not there.

[Tellurian]

121. I can as well..

Hate in any color does not represent the Truth to me.

[Why Syzygy]

123. War sympathizers belong in the HilLIARy camp. You're in the right place.

If you disagree with Wright, you must agree that government policies, including bombing Iraq, are the right way to go.

[Tellurian]

131. I disagree with you and Wright.

[izzybeans]

80. We all can spot a sham on our own thanks! Want to play "I spy"?

I spy a sham.

[Zhade]

111. Your delusions aside, your candidate's a proven liar.

NT!

[JackORoses]

124. will you keep your sham of a website open after Hillary gets kicked to the curb?

[PoliticalAmazon]

104. Don't forget voting for the Iraq war. That's another example of her foreign policy expertise. n/t

[Why Syzygy]

120. She wants WAR WITH IRAN. THAT's what her *experience* will give us.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=5301205

[Mooney]

107. Whatever makes you feel better.

[WVRevy]

115. Really? And how many committee meetings has Hillary attended in the same timeframe?

Answer: ZERO

Oh...wait...maybe they didn't serve tea and crumpets, so she couldn't be bothered to attend?

:banghead:

[pettypace]

122. Obama is a dunce like Bush?

Tullarian, you have just posted the most asinine comment regarding the man I've read to date.

Congrats, big dog.

[polpilot]

20. Did she laugh before voting for the Iraq War Resolution? Clintons are comical.

[merh]

51. She laughed as the bullets were whizzing overhead

n/t

[clevbot]

56. works everytime

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

26. We'll see who's laughing at the convention Hillary. Here's a hint: it won't be you!

[earthside]

30. Cackle! Cackle! Cackle!

On FOX 'News'!!!

Ahem ... Iraq War Resolution ... pro-NAFTA ... Tuzla ...

Really.

She's become a total embarrassment to herself -- and her party.

[polpilot]

47. Elect ANYONE with Bubba's background, store your boxed set of The Beverly Hillbillies,

get the popcorn, and settle in. IT WON'T END.

[Buzz Clik]

66. KICK!

[anamandujano]

129. How could she possibly pass up being crucified on MSNGE?

:shrug:

[MadBadger]

2. IWR Hillary, IWR.

[polpilot]

Ha! Ha! Ha! Bubba just signed NAFTA. Funny stuff!

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

22. Learn to run a campaign Hillary, then worry about criticizing the eventual Democratic nominee.

[Sinistrous]

3. Another flabby nonsequitur from Mrs. Clinton. n/t

[Erin Elizabeth]

4. How exactly was he inserting his foot in his mouth

with that? Can you explain your post title a bit?

[still_one]

10. I'll tell why, because he was being honest, a trait some of the other candidates don't have /nt

[knixphan]

81. EXACTLY-

[Taxmyth]

14. by claiming he has more foreign policy experience

than Senators Clinton and McCain. And his travels to Pakistan to stay with friends and family will generate a right wing response also.

[SoonerPride]

29. He didn't say he had more EXPERIENCE. He said he UNDERSTOOD IT BETTER

Or can you NOT READ !!!!??

[Taxmyth]

38. Reading comprehension

So he has less Foreign Policy experience than either Senators Clinton or McCain but he understands Foreign Policy better than either of those two. Sounds like Senator Obama all right.

[SoonerPride]

53. Just being there for 50 years doesn't mean you have a better grasp of the problem

Shrub has been there for 8 years now and is still clueless.

Experience does not = understanding.

[Zodiak]

93. He does

The other two led us into the greatest military blunder of this nation's history. Obama didn't.

They make horrendous mistakes and have the gall to say they are experts in foreign affairs....I call bullshit.

[knixphan]

125. I second the call!

[Zhade]

113. ANOTHER LIE. He didn't say he understands FP better, he said he understands the world better.

At least be honest in your criticism. You're lying as much as your candidate.

[lefty from jersey]

40. Calm down Obama

Slow down, easy boy. Here is how you can blow it Obama. Don't start believing the adoring crowds. You can not sell the experience or better judgement on foreign policy story to 51% of the electorate. It is not going to sell.

Look dude, you are in the 4th quarter; sit on the ball and run out the clock. One thing at a time. You will have plenty of time to get a spanking from grandpa. And you will get a spanking if you go down this road.

You DO NOT have a strong position on foreign policy. Go find a VP that does. "Don't out kick the coverage."

[kmsarvis]

126. "Slow down,easy BOY"?

WHAT AN OBNOXIOUS POST.

[DerekJ]

36. Dude, you are a joke, STFU.

[lefty from jersey]

86. The joke

The joke will be on Obama. He will not sell foreign policy experience to the electorate in November. If they are looking for a small time political hack backed by some real big political hacks he will win in a landslide.

Come the time of the GE, Americans will get real nervous about giving the job of Commander in Chief to a guy with zero experience. It is all fun and games now because Obama is a novelty and a way of blowing off steam at the establishment, but before America gives Obama the keys to the car he is going to have to show more than bluster and a nice speech.

Many people are voting for Obama right now because they get to blow off steam and there are no consequences at the moment. They are not going to let him drive.

[DerekJ]

98. Yes, they will decide to give to the most polarizing figure to the republicans and independents,

with the highest negatives. If his chances are slim, her chances are none.

[truebrit71]

109. Remind me again of the policy experience of the current occupant of the WH prior to going to DC?

What about ZERO.

Your argument doesn't hold up.

[kmsarvis]

127. "NO CONSEQUENCES AT THE MOMENT"?

DUDE,YOU ARE FULL OF HOT AIR.

[Zhade]

112. STOP. LYING. That's not what he said. At all.

NT!

[depakid]

72. It came across as amatuerish

and didn't exactly inspire confidence.

Not everything the man says is going to be eloquent- though unfortunately, that's the expectation.

[Adelante]

5. She laughed - hahaha

Only 4000 American soldiers dead and tens of thousands of Iraqis. Hahaha.

[pocoloco]

6. Hillary does know alot about voting for war!

[Taxmyth]

16. And Obama knows a lot about funding it

Who knows how he would have voted were he in the Senate at the time.

[Window]

44. My two nephews in Iraq, my family and friends are glad Senator Obama funded it.

Bring them home, NOW!

I've heard all the arguments, and I don't believe for one second that not funding this debacle would bring our troops home any sooner. There are other/better ways to stop this shit.

[Taxmyth]

62. good point

I hope your Nephews get home safe and sound.

[Window]

91. Thank you very much.

Peace:thumbsup:

[Mooney]

55. The best you can do is guess, and there's a 50% chance you would be wrong.

With Hillary, no guessing is needed, since she voted for the war.

That's a fact. No guesswork involved.

[still_one]

7. Like it or not she and mccain both voted for the IWR and the use of cluster bombs

in civilian areas.

That shows a lack of poor judgement in itself

getting us into this war based on a lie is obscene

Over 20 Democrats and 1 republican knew that this was a fraud, and if she would have understood the War Powers Act, she would have realized that vote for the IWR undid the check and balances that the War Powers Act provided

I know what Clinton and mccain have done, they have already demononstrated it

[Taxmyth]

15. And Obama funded the war also

all guilty

[Hepburn]

18. Hint: Think PRIOR to placing fingers on keyboard. n/t

[still_one]

21. Big difference. Once the troops have been committed by those who should have known better

you cannot leave them ill-equiped, even though they are getting substandard protection

You should NEVER have gotten them in the situation in the first place. It isn't the funding, it is getting them out now, that counts

Incidently, though I am critisizing your candidate, if she wins the nomination, I will vote for her without hesitation in the general election against mccain

[MadBadger]

23. Funding the war at the stages he did was probably a smart foreign policy strategy.

[Taxmyth]

27. Obama not in Senate to vote for or against IWR

SO who knows how he would have voted. His big name Senate supporters also voted aye on IWR, does that taint their endorsement or is this selective outrage?

[MadBadger]

32. Thats why his supporters wouldnt make as good a President as Obama

He was against the war from the start and correctly predicted what would happen in Iraq as a result of invasion, no matter what you say.

[Mooney]

58. His senate supporters aren't running for president.

And all you can do is speculate about how he might have voted. With Hillary Clinton, no speculation is necessary. She voted for the war, and she gets to be held responsible for it.

[Adelante]

59. And they know they were wrong

Kerry, Rockefeller, Dodd - they will say he was right when they were wrong. They have the integrity to admit it.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

25. Yeah, after Hillary got the troops stuck in the mud over there like sitting ducks.

[EnviroBat]

8. By all means, keep cackling away Hillary.

The toilet-bowl circling of your campaign is making you downright giddy!

[struck_dumb]

11. :) Funny :)

See that, there goes Hillary again, actually talking about actual things that actual politicians actually do. Or don't do, as the case may be. No broad brush strokes there.

[Mooney]

60. By "actual things"

do you mean lying about getting shot at in Bosnia, or do you mean hiring a chief strategist with ties to Blackwater?

[struck_dumb]

117. hi there

What a mess that Bosnia thing. She's better when she sticks to policy instead of painting word pictures, no? I can only think that she got mixed up between visits. Maybe there's a super secret CIA visit she did, and that's the one she got shot at on...who knows. It's definitely unfortunate.

As for the Blackwater thing, if there ever really was a properly dead horse, that's the one.

[madrchsod]

12. she dodged sniper fire..she`s got street cred baby!

she`s ready right now!

[Zhade]

114. We've GOT to start putting in sarcasm tags, people might think what you said was true!

NT!

[Zueda]

13. Drop the rhetoric and you have nothing...

[bobbert]

17. According to Fox News she said something silly

but really, Fox News? Opposing the Iraq war is the most important foreign policy stand that was needed in the last 8 years, and only one of them got it right.

[Taxmyth]

24. Boston Globe, HuffPo and not Fox News

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/mayhill-fowler/obama-says-no-to-foreign_b_95357.html

for HuffPo article.

It is funny to see the lack of reading comprehension for some of the responders here.

[MadBadger]

28. Boston Globe and Huffpo would not agree with your headline though.

[Taxmyth]

33. But Senators Clinton and McCain would

Their personal statements or those through the campaign about Senator Obama's claims showed that.

[MadBadger]

35. You mean like when they claimed it was naive of him to suggest attacking targets in Pakistan?

How did that turnout when we ACTUALLY did that? Seemed pretty well to me.

[Taxmyth]

41. McCain blasted him as being naive

for publicly broadcasting military intent or strategy. Not so sure Senator Clinton also jumped on his case about it.

[bobbert]

57. The Boston Globe does not agree with you

they only state that Clinton and Republicans disagree with the statement and that all 3 candidates have a chance to ask Petraeus and Crocker questions to perhaps prove their foreign policy credentials

Mayhill Fowler agrees with you, but you didn't link HuffPo, you linked the Boston Globe at first, which did link to that, but they only pulled the fact that the statement was said, not opinion from that article, which you did.

[Taxmyth]

64. I stand corrected

[Auntie Bush]

19. If...

"foreign policy is the area where I (Obama) am probably most confident"

Then how confident is his knowledge in all the other areas? I guess not much.

[berni_mccoy]

31. That's all she can do at this point: Laugh. She's got nothing and her campaign is a failure.

There's no way I want her as president after running this abysmal excuse for a campaign.

[rodeodance]

34. OBAMA ENDORSES McCAIN

[global1]

37. Hillary - The Next Lieberman......nt

[rodeodance]

39. Great one Hillary--

[Rob Gregory Browne]

42. Seems to me

he does know more than both, considering he was AGAINST the Iraq war from the start. Perhaps he has better judgment about such things. And all the "experience" in the world doesn't help you if you show poor judgment.

[Milo_Bloom]

43. So where was the part where he put his foot in his mouth.

seemed like an honest response.

I guess honesty is out of style these days?

[lefty from jersey]

46. An opinion

Obama's opinion, one that has to be taken on faith alone because there is not a logical reason to believe it, is only his opinion. Most people would disagree that hands on experience is trumped by bravado.

As a contractor, I would use my most experienced employee for the most difficult job. Until the newer employee could demonstrate his superiorior ability in spite of his lack of experience, I would rely on actual experience. The same would apply for my car mechanic or surgeon. I like real experiece, and I think Americans are going to be looking for demonstrated experience rather than bravado in these trying times.

Hint to Obama... Your foreign policy resume is paper thin, get a foreign policy guy for your VP. A former general could be a nice fit to fill up you empty foreign policy resume. Another hint, stay with the hope thing and don't try to sell your experience. You have none!

[SoonerPride]

63. Hint to McCain and Clinton: your judgment proves you to be failures.

I wouldn't loan either of those people the keys to my car.

They're likely to drive it off a cliff, just like they have steered the ship of state into a brick wall.

Judgement is far superior to having been on the scene.

Bushlite has been in office for 8 years and he is still a nincompoop.

[Milo_Bloom]

74. You missed what you said...

"Until the newer employee could demonstrate his superiorior ability in spite of his lack of experience, I would rely on actual experience"

Obama has done that already, which is the key. He has shown a superior understanding of the situation in the Middle East to either Clinton or McCain. He showed that superior understanding in 2002 and continues to show it today in his discussions on the topic.

Experience in a broken system is worthless. The most experienced witch doctor on the planet won't heal as well as a 1st year medical student.

McCain and Clinton lack SUCESSFUL experience. Their "experience" has resulted in complete failure.

As such, Obama is far more qualified on foreign policy than either.

[lefty from jersey]

No sale

Take off the rose colored glasses. That dog will not hunt in the GE. Obama has no foreign policy experience, good or bad. If he continues with this bluster he will be taken apart like a double wide in a hurricane. Repeat he has NO resume to handle the job of Commander in Chief. Obama needs to get an experienced VP.

[Milo_Bloom]

106. Experience means ZILCH

When you are wrong

He has the perfect resume to handle the job of Commander in Chief.

[kmsarvis]

128. A HINT FOR LEFTY? FROM NEW JERSEY

CLINTON HAS ONE VERY BIG BLACK MARK ON HER "PAPER THIN" FOREIGN POLICY RESUME THAT OBAMA DOES'NT.

[DemGa]

45. BO sounds like Bush and stuff

Great response from Hillary!! Take this glass jaw to the convention!!

[Forkboy]

118. He sounded just like Bush on this on this quote too! I couldn't believe it!

"The fact that you have these suicide bombers now, wreaking such hatred and violence while people pray, is to me, an indication of their failure,"

Oh wait, that was Hillary.

[dbonds]

48. Whose mouth did he insert a foot into.

What he said was accurate and good.

[Tellurian]

50. ***Bookmarking***

:rofl:

[kwenu]

52. He'd have to eat a lot of leather to catch up with HER!! And I thought the MSM is against Hillary.

Or was it the MSM except for Fox News.

[Tellurian]

65. They reported her quote accurately...thats all she needs..

[kwenu]

75. They reported her Bosnia story accurately too. Where were you then?

[Diane R]

54. And he who laughs last, laughs best. Keep yukking it up, Hill baby.

[Tellurian]

68. No, we're smiling... the DNC is imploding from the inside out..

in accordance with the blundering quote of their candidate.

[zulchzulu]

67. Another cheap shot from the Queen of Deflated Hopes

Drop out Hillary...

[depakid]

71. How is that a cheap shot?

Obama didn't hold any hearings. Indeed (and this wouldn't be a cheap shot either) it would also be fair to say that he's basically used his Senate seat as a stepping stone for the presidency.

[zulchzulu]

82. Hillary knows (I think) that all the Afghanistan meetings were held in the Full Committee

Obama did hold hearings on nominees that were being put forth to ambassadors and those nominees were approved. Afghanistan-related hearings were done in the full Senate Foreign Relations Committee, rather than in Obama's subcommittee.

So Hillary is shading with the truth on this issue. Why would Afghanistan-related hearings, which are front burner issues since we are at war there, be left to a subcommittee to discuss?

Is Hillary suggesting that Afghanistan-related hearings should be sent to a subcommittee and off the front burner? Is she THAT clueless?

[Why Syzygy]

69. He UNDERSTANDS it. He has tons of experience

in community organizing. The world is just a much larger community.


BARACK OBAMA’S PLAN TO SECURE AMERICA AND RESTORE OUR STANDING
“When I am this party's nominee, my opponent will not be able to say that I voted for the war in Iraq; or that I gave George Bush the benefit of the doubt on Iran; or that I supported Bush-Cheney policies of not talking to leaders that we don't like. And he will not be able to say that I wavered on something as fundamental as whether or not it is ok for America to torture — because it is never ok… I will end the war in Iraq… I will close Guantanamo. I will restore habeas corpus. I will finish the fight against Al Qaeda. And I will lead the world to combat the common threats of the 21st century: nuclear weapons and terrorism; climate change and poverty; genocide and disease. And I will send once more a message to those yearning faces beyond our shores that says, "You matter to us. Your future is our future. And our moment is now.”

— Barack Obama, Des Moines, Iowa, November 10, 2007

Bipartisanship and Openness
The Problem: Under the Bush administration, foreign policy has been used as a political wedge issue to divide us – not as a cause to bring America together. And it is no coincidence that one of the most secretive administrations in history has pursued policies that have been disastrous for the American people. Obama strongly believes that our foreign policy is stronger when Americans are united, and the government is open and candid with the American people.
A Record of Bringing People Together: In the Senate, Obama has worked with Republicans and Democrats to advance important policy initiatives on securing weapons of mass destruction and conventional weapons, increasing funding for nonproliferation, and countering instability in Congo.

http://www.barackobama.com/issues/foreignpolicy/

[depakid]

73. In community organizing!

Now that's REALLY going to play well with both the general public and with people who actually DO have some foreign policy experience.

[EFerrari]

88. Do you really believe Obama can't wear a flight suit as well as McCain

Or take presents from little girls as well as Hillary? We know he can sit in the Senate chambers and participate in CSPAN Theater. And we know he knows how to pick a good team, which is more than can be said for either Clinton or McCain. We know, too, that he is better versed in cultural sensitivity than either of the other two. He'll be fine.

[depakid]

90. I'm just saying that it doesn't come off as credible

and I'm not making any comparisons to the other two choices, which are in some ways worse.

I guess I would also add that in a country of 300 million people the notion that the presidency comes down to a choice among these three is sad, but rather telling.

[SoonerPride]

95. The real sharp kids are out making $300 million a year

Sadly

[JohnnyLib2]

76. When is the next funding vote likely?

[SoxFan]

78. Ready on day one, isn't she?

IWR
Supported by Milosevic's lobbyist
Belfast tea party
Tuzla airport

Yep, she's ready on day one.

[BigDDem]

79. "who knows about a bunch of stuff "

oh yeah, he's "brilliant!"

:rofl:

[pompano]

84. She is hanging out

...over at Faux now?

Enough said. OMG.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Just writing Faux News and I feel like I need a l.....o.....n.....g shower.

Ewww Gads!

:rofl:

[pompano]

102. I can do a better job...

of photoshopping than that. Obvious imposter. :-)

Seriously, like I said Eww Gads!

Doesn't change my opinion of Faux News one iota. It's Eww Gads to any person that would grace the studios at War Monger central. Whichever candidate...doesn't make any difference to me. And of all of them Brit Fumes and Hannity turn my stomach the most.

[RememberWellstone]

83. "I know more &understand the world better than Clinton or McCain."

Sure you do wonderboy...sure you do.:eyes:

[BigDDem]

85. Well, from what I hear he

has family overseas.

:rofl:

[zulchzulu]

87. Hillary thinks that Afghanistan-related hearings should be in a subcommittee?

Last I checked, we are in Afghanistan with troops and such. Should Obama have had hearings on Afghanistan matters in a subcommittee (seen as less important) rather than where they have been in the FULL Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which he is a member of?

Is Hillary assuming that Afghanistan is not that important and that hearings should be relegated to a subcommittee off the front burner?

Apparently, since she flunked her big test and voted for Bush's war without sitting her ass down and reading the NIE before sending our troops to a quagmire, maybe she thinks Afghanistan is just a little sandpit skirmish where she might one day get a photo op and say there was sniper fire as she smiles for the cameras like she's sitting next to Goofy in DisneyWorld.

Hillary, is Afghanistan policy supposed to be discussed in a subcommittee? Wanker...

[boston bean]

96. Obama thinks it's pretty important, he mentioning it all the time. His chairmanship of that cmte.

[loyalsister]

92. He understands the veep isn't a strategic advisor

The president appoints advisors to do that job.
He's confident and knows exactly what he is talking about and Hillary laughed at him. She did exactly what she should not have done.

[BenDavid]

94. well hell, obama tried to pat his resume to look better to black

folk when he lied about when his parents did the hunka chunka and he was born. And the lies he's told about the Kennedy's but the whoremedia lets this pass...

What's wrong with asking this question? IF Obama is unelectable because of Wright, should we just eat that and lose again? Is it racist to ask if the GOP is going to scare America into thinking Obama is some crazy Muslim with a radical agenda? Of course they're going to do, if he's the nominee, that and I have real money to bet on it. McCain hired Bush's "Willie Horton" team to run his campaign.


What do YOU think this campaign will be about? It's going to be about fear. C'mon, obama people, is this your first day in politics?

[uponit7771]

99. Current poll numbers don't bear what you're saying out. Also, Wright has been a net positive for...

...Obama; the more people hear him and see his actions the more they relate to him (what, 71% in last poll) and his values.

Let them use Wright, Hagee and Palsey are fair game along with McSame MLK vote and 'gook' statements...

Bottom line; if that's ALL the right has is Wright then the only person that can defeat Obama is Obama.

[uponit7771]

97. After Mark Penn, Hillary and her supporters have VERY little room to talk...

[not_too_L8]

100. About That Subcommittee

About That Subcommittee
The idea that is being floated around by the Clinton camp that Barack Obama has dropped the ball on Afghanistan by not holding a hearing in Congress is refuted. Turns out that:

...the Foreign Relations Committee’s Subcommittee on European Affairs doesn’t have primary jurisdiction over the campaign in Afghanistan. The Armed Services Committee (on which Senator Clinton serves) does.

The Subcommittee on European Affairs doesn’t have secondary jurisdiction over the campaign in Afghanistan. The full Foreign Relations Committee (which has held hearings on Afghanistan) does.

The Subcommittee on European Affairs doesn’t even have tertiary jurisdiction over the campaign in Afghanistan. The Subcommittee on Near East and South and Central Asian Affairs does.

Both Clintons, obviously, fully understand how the Senate operates; and recognize that any freshman senator who hopes to have any influence in the upper chamber isn’t going to hold hearings on a matter almost wholly tangential to his subcommittee’s jurisdiction.

[PoliticalAmazon]

103. Yes, we all now know HRC's "experience"--it's all in her fantasy world. n/t

[Alter Ego]

105. Meanwhile, Mrs. Clinton, your former senior adviser

has been undermining your campaign from the start with his backroom free trade negotiations. That makes you one of two things:

a) a shitty manager who doesn't have a fucking clue as to what her subordinates are up to, or
b) a corrupt jackass who doesn't care what her subordinates are up to.

[AZBlue]

108. No foot in mouth disease there! Excellent point, Sen. Obama!

Thank you for pointing out this story - it's just another reason to support our future President!

[Zhade]

110. Read it three times -- where's the alleged gaffe?

Man, you guys are DESPERATE.

Not that it'll do your candidate any good, since she's not going to win the nomination.

[krkaufman]

116. Seems like Hillary made Obama's point for him.

She thinks holding a meeting demonstrates mastery of a subject. While Obama thinks actually being knowledgeable is the measure.

[anamandujano]

130. The worst is that he sounded just like Bush.
