[Yael]

Paraphrase.

:woohoo:

[AllentownJake]

1. Isn't it great

44. Thank's for this!

I only saw a few minutes of the - whatever that was they held tonight - and I had missed this.


Good for Obama! :thumbsup:

[DearAbby]

2. Woot

:bounce::bounce:

[kevinmc]

3. Hillary blew it ...... she should never let her mouth outrun her brain .... n/t

[Yael]

4. She threw Al under the HillBus. He said he believes Al won in 2000

HUGE difference -- and the applause he got (from MESSIAH COLLEGE no less) was amazing.

[Zachstar]

25. Sets things up for an endorsement in my view!!

[Yael]

29. Not too soon -- it would look like a reaction to the event as opposed to thought out and planned.

[Zachstar]

30. I know I dont expect it tommorow. Tho Gore is within bounds to react

He got thrown under a political bus!! And the insult spread out even beyond him.

Screw Clinton. (Especially Bill Clinton) It is because her Husband's sex scandal and the vote fraud in 2000 that we got 8 years of Bush and a fucked up world. Her IWR support along with others that led us to a false war. etc...

Gore owes her nothing. The democrats owe her nothing!

[Cha]

5. hilary's so outta touch..WTF does

she know.

[goclark]

6. Well that makes my day!

:woohoo:

[Skittles]

7. AWESOME

:thumbsup:

[JVS]

8. Ohhh hell yeah!

[Hamlette]

9. what a perfect response to Hillary's attack on Al

maybe Al will endorse now???

He should after tonight.

[book_worm]

10. She isn't content to attack Obama now she has to attack Gore as well?

[AllentownJake]

11. I think by the time

She is dragged kicking and screaming from the stage she'll have attacked everyone in the democratic party.

[Bonobo]

12. THIS IS WHY DU WAS CREATED FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!

THANK YOU BARACK!

[Zachstar]

27. You got a great point there!!

DU got the democrats together in a time of Chaos! Now the internet age is going to allow Obama to finally get in and a congress get in that can investigate the fraud of 2000!

[Zhade]

40. You'd be surprised how many here not only don't know that, but deny the 2000 theft.

It's like people just join websites without reading the About section these days.

[Bonobo]

43. I remember you going way back. You were a Deaniac, no?

[Scurrilous]

13. K & R

:thumbsup:

[saltpoint]

14. Very nicely done. Also IMO an excellent assessment.

[Yael]

17. Huge applause from the evangelical audience on it, too

THAT surprised me. Messiah College is about a fundamentally conservative as they come.

[saltpoint]

18. Yes. Hi, Yael. People are responding to his leadership, to his ability to

inspire them.

His opponent in the primary race right now just isn't meeting that criterion.

[H2O Man]

15. Right.

I liked that. We know what side each candidate is on.

Nominated.

[Arkana]

16. Hahahaha...well, at least we have someone who'll finally come right out

and say it.

[crankychatter]

19. they're going back to "bitter" ALREADY on the Clinton News Network

I've had all I can stomach of CNN for another month I think

Tell me they're not hosting the debate, please.

[quakerboy]

20. And that reenforces my choice all the more

He is a gamble. Any politician is. But he has been willing to say truth.

[mmonk]

21. Yes. That put a smile on my face.

[Willo]

22. Its the media mindset. That can't get over that he has backed up and apologized.

Takes away there superior edge.

[Zachstar]

23. Obama is not afriaid to tell it how it is.

I really think we can get congress to investigate the 2000 fraud and other Bush crimes now!

We may not get the Impeach of Bush and his asshole VP that this country needs. But we may see them arrested in the future!

No FUCKING Pardon! No FUCKING sidestepping! As soon as you are president Obama Investigate them!

[Willo]

24. Its the media mindset. That can't get over that he hasn't backed off it and apologized.

Takes away there superior edge.

[book_worm]

26. I missed it, did the audience applaud his remark?

[Yael]

28. You better believe they did. Huge.

And the audience was made up of fundamental/conservatives.

Messiah College is about as core as it gets.

Surprised me.

[Garbo 2004]

31. Thank you, Senator Obama. n/t

[Pisces]

32. Nice!!!! He nailed it!!

[BlueIdaho]

33. Its about damn time some democrat said that! nt.

[SunsetDreams]

34. WOOOHOOOOO

Way to tell it Barack!

Unlike Hillary who slammed him, Shame on you Hillary!

[jazzjunkysue]

35. I feel represented. Thank you, Barack.

:kick:

2nd video is Obama

[Yael]

38. Thank you!!

[Cali_Democrat]

37. That was AWESOME when he said that

I pumped my fist when I heard that.

w00t

:toast:

[Yael]

41. Link to video is in post #36 and reposted in #39 (under #1)

[lumberjack_jeff]

42. It was great to see him say that.

It was disappointing to see Hillary overplay her hand.

[me b zola]

49. Thank you

I mean that sincerely.

[krkaufman]

45. Oh, snap!! Now *that* is how a Democrat should be talking.

Rather than putting down our past candidates and echoing a falsehood, how about speaking the truth. Gore won the election but it was stolen from him.

[TheDonkey]

46. Hillary's attempt to throw Al Gore under the bus, how sweet.

[TragedyandHope]

47. Wow, I can't wait to see him in action during the General Election!

48. OMG! Obama is a conspiracy theorist!

Obviously loony! Obviously bitter! x( Sore Loserman!















...well, that's what some of my family members still say about me when I say Gore won. :P

I'm really glad to hear a nationally prominent politician say it in public. It's time for Dems in DC to stop pretending we haven't had a coup in this country.

[mopinko]

50. call me crazy, but i do think he will make sure all votes are counted.

his law practice had a focus on voting rights. his campaign seems to be quietly making sure votes are counted now- ie. the nevada lawsuit, and the hand counting of the la double bubble ballots. and, of course, he is a constitutional expert. there is no doubt in my mind that he is the one to turn this country around. not just another politician.

[grannylib]

51. Since MSM=Corporate Whore, this all makes perfect sense.

Just as corporations prefer to label "honesty" as "negativity about the company" because it suits their short-term monetary interests, so does the MSM prefer to label honesty as negativity. This allows them to focus on the label, not on the statement and its truth. Hell, if we acknowledge the veracity of remarks like this, holy shit...we, The People, might figure out that the MSM is asleep at the bait 'n' switch, and that there are a host of unexplored issues out there such as Election Theft 2000 and 2004, the 9/11 MIHOP/LIHOP issue, etc. and that we, The People, might expect some accountability and THE TRUTH. And once the truth is known, the corporate culture and its whores would be exposed. And I honestly believe that we, The People, still DO have the power to TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY and THAT'S what these fuckers fear most.

[Zambero]

52. So according to Hillary, Karl Rove was justified in trashing Kerry...

...for being elitist, by engaging in <gasp> the sport of windsurfing. I guess in her ever-morphing GOP mindset, quality recreation is best achieved the non-elitist Dick Cheney way -- by shooting your buddy in the face with a shotgun while sloppy drunk.

[bobbolink]

53. Since the GAO already said that years ago, this is no revelation.

In fact, it's a bit of a "soft" comment.

:(

[debbierlus]

54. Think? All the facts prove he did WIN - & Kerry won as well.

[Kermitt Gribble]
