      Why is it OK for
      Barack Obama to be a sexist
      who looks down on women as long as they
      are not Democratic women?
      .
      Wise up ladies,
      why do you think Barack
      did not pick Hillary Clinton
      as his vice president?
      Because he disrespects women!
      .

      it's still a pig."

      it's still gonna stink!"
      .
      Exact quotes
      from BARACK OBAMA



    16. 16

      The Brits like the rest of the world don't like Bush, so there is no surprise there. He is just trying to buy favor with his own citizens by supporting Obama.



    17. 17

      shut up, gordon.

      perez, even the conservatives in the uk are backing obama.
      everyone wants obama.EVERYONE.



    21. 21

      Why would a fascist pig like Gordon Brown back Obama? Oh wait, I know! Because he wants to gain popularity and Obama is popular eveywhere. We all know what you really think, Gordon, you're a closet McCain supporter who wants to make a dystopian 1984 nation out of us! Police State!!



    22. 22

      Yes Obama for President!



    23. 23

      IM NOT WISHING DEATH ON McCAIN, BUT IT IS OBVIOUS THAT HIS HEALTH IS DECLINING RAPIDLY… IM A MEDICAL MAJOR, AND HE DOES NOT LOOK WELL AT ALL. I THINK HE IS A NICE GUY… I DON'T REALLY HAVE AN OPINION ON PALIN OTHER THEN SHE JUST RUBS ME THE WRONG WAY. BUT I WILL KEEP AN OPEN MIND WHEN I WATCH HER INTERVIEW ON ABC TONITE AT 6PM EST.

      MUCH LUV TOO THE FAMILIES AFFECTED BY 9/11

      Obama 08



    25. 25

      Who cares what the rest of the world thinks. They have no balls to stand up and fight against oppression. This is why Russia is getting away with attacking Georgia.



    26. 26

      This should be a clear cut signal that Barack is already respected on the international stage. Don't buy into the Republican's idea that Barack doesn't have experience. They know darn well the world wants a more peaceful minded leader of the superpower that is the US. I'm really beginning to hate politics with an increasing passion. Screw McCain and the Repubs. They have had their chance over the course of these last eight years. Time for a new approach.



    27. 27

      YEAH!! GO BARACK



    28. 28

      Re: JERMAINE – i agree jermaine. McCain will suffer a stroke or heart attack as soon as he finds out that he won…..IF HE WINS which i doubt.

      JUST SAY NO TO WHITE HAIRED OLD MEN FOR PRESIDENT!



    29. 29

      Doesn't all of Europe want Obama? This is not shocking news.



    30. 30

      ok this whole elections thing is really starting to bore me. im british and its like do we care? i think all americans shouldnt be picky with who their next president is, they should just be lucky that ape in a suit aka bush, will soon no longer have any power.

      Gee, I missed it when Bush and Cheny and McCain said
      women smell like rotten fish, can you provide the quotes please?

      .
      Exact quotes
      from BARACK OBAMA
      .
      Barack did not even have Hillary
      on his short OR long list for vice president.
      Barack talks about how a woman can
      smell lika a rotten fish, what do you think
      it means when a man says that about a woman?
      IT IS A MAJOR INSULT, LADIES!
      Barack Obama is a sexist hiding in the
      closet, he needs to come out and be open
      about his contempt and disrespect for women!

      All the rest of the world want Obama cause they do not want us to be the powerful nation that we are!!! I am supporting Mccain cause all the people in hollywood and everywhere are saying they are leaving the country is Mccain wins so that means there will be more employment opportunities for all of us who stay!!!

      Re: Jenni-licious – The whole word thinks Obama would be a better president
      ——————————————————————————————Actually the whole world would rather American to be weaker therefore they would support Obama



    44. 44

      Last I checked back in the 1700's we fought the British so that they would leave us alone. So, go address your own country's problems and stay out of ours. I hate it when other countries say who they support. Guess what? We don't care! You're not the ones voting so go about your own business.

    49. 49

      If Obama's first major political decision - his choice of running mate - is indicative of his decision-making capabilities, I would say he is impaired… because choosing Biden was so FULL OF FAIL!!!!
      -
      How can we trust Obama going forward if these are the types of decisions he makes?!?!
      -
      When the person you choose as your running mate is saying that someone else would probably have been a better choice, you know you're in trouble.
      -
      Our choice of President is not down to a world popularity contest thankfully.

    51. 51

      reading the comments after the article on that site is so disturbing. Why do so many Americans not seem to understand that they can no longer exist in a little bubble? Your economy is in decline, and as it falters it takes down the rest of the world with it.



    52. 52

      Good job Gordon Brown!! It's well known most of Europe let alone the world hates the Republican right now. In fact the only people who really embrace McCain and Palin are gun and war lovin overly religious hicks! Unfortunatly this country has alot of these kinds of people.

      Re: LatinDaddy – I TOLD U I THINK U ARE SEXY RIGHT! BUT YEAH McCAIN IS A FANTASTIC SOLDIER, BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE HIM A GREAT LEADER… BARACK HAS THIS NATURAL ABILITY TO MAKE PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA CAN ACTUALLY BE THE GREATEST NATION OF ALL TIME W/ BARACK AS OUR PRESIDENT.



    55. 55

      Re: LatinDaddy – IM TYPE'N TO FAST AND EATING ALL AT THE SAME TIME.LOL! BUT IT'S OK.



    56. 56

      Palin quoted anti Semite Westbrook Pegler who was so right, the John Birch Society banned him from their journal.
      I was just reading this and thought I would share with fellow Perez "liberals"!
      Palin quoted a "writer":
      "We grow good people in our small towns," "with honesty and sincerity and dignity."
      According to Wall Street Journal columnist Thomas Frank the writer is Westbrook Pegler who was also quoted by Pat Buchanan. Google it!

    59. 59

      "Evil" George Bush put more black
      Americans in high office than the
      "first black president" Bill Clinton ever did!
      Bill Clinton would not even have an
      affair with a beautiful black woman -
      so that gives some clues about he
      felt about some groups of
      Americans.

    67. 67

      Re: Smirks – Yes Smirks, this not a popularity contest, however, we SHOULD care what the world thinks. There is world outside the US border that hates us. They are disgusted by our "Empire". They think Americans are kept ignorant by our biased media, they think Americans are war hungry, and they're pissed off by our arrogance. If we keep alienating the rest of the world, we will feel the backlash more and more. We will slowly isolate ourselves and that's a scary thought. We do need to care.



    68. 68

      Re: JERMAINE – theres alot of racist comments on this site. its really sad.. thats why im votin for OBAMAAAA



    69. 69

      Actually I think choosing Biden was very clever of Obama. So what if he's not a hot piece of ass in a skirt. He is an Irish white older male WITH experience and brains. He actually appeals to a lot of the male independent voters just as Palin appeals to the females independent voters. There were a lot of people out there who didn't like Hillary. I did and i agree it would have been a dream team but Biden is just as good and he is gonna make an ass out of Palin come debate time if she ever finds her balls and comes out of hiding to talk to the press. By the way, it looks like Republicans are just as threatened since anythin Obama does they pick apart. I'm a woman and I'm not at all offended by the "lipstick gate" Get over it. I wasn't offended when McOld used it to Hillary either. Im secure in my womanhood. I wish the repubs would start talking about how their policies would benefit people other than themselves selfish pricks.

      Re: _Alice_ – If you read the article supplied, you would see that it is somewhat shocking, because the former British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, who was kind of the George Bush of the United Kingdom, has never sided with American, Democratic politics, unlike the new PM.



    72. 72

      he is entitled to his opinion. i just hope people are looking at teh issues and bot sex or race.

      Wait… weren't you just recently accusing her of being a token who read a speechwriter's words into a teleprompter? Now, all of a sudden you want to attribute quotes in her speech directly to her as if she authored the speech? You guys can't have it both ways. lol.

      Re: wildmidwestern – HARRY is a BITCHHHHH!



    80. 80

      who cares? He ought to know that Obama won't do jack s to save Britain if Russia decides to march over Europe. Obama is NOT about to defend any other country. He thought the Iraqis deserved to have Saddam Hussein- that the Kurds deserved to be gassed to death, that women deserved to be raped and the most educated be dragged from classrooms to be tortured and murdered. No reason to change that! Obama isn't into saving people. His father left him no American history of his own- because he wasn't an American. Most of us at least have a relative who has served in ONE war and sacrificed something for their country. Good luck with that.



    81. 81

      Re: _Alice_ – Exactly! Peace over war! And Palin talks about valueing life when every day innocent Americans and Iraqis and afghans are losing their lives. WHEN HAS WAR EVER SOLVED ANYTHING? NEVER? It's time to shake hands with the world and maybe they would be happy to help us combat terrorism THE RIGHT WAY! Don't be fooled by this war for OIL it's based on pure greed. The repubs are panicking because they want to milk americans for all their money before the oil runs dry and we all start driving electric cars 50 years form now. If you want to kepp making them richer go ahead and vote McCold/Fakebitch. OR you can start keepin' it real by voting Barack and Jojo!



    82. 82

      Re: State ziti – state ziti what is your background? ur image as your picture is very disturbing. wow when will you learn. i feel really bad for you. ill keep u in my prayers. hopefully one day youll wake up before its too late.



    83. 83

      Re: _Alice_ –
      I agree with you that we should care what the world thinks. It would be nice if they thought well of us, but world opinion is not at the top of my priority list right now. I recently re-read some of the Federalist Papers and our founding fathers saw great danger in forming permanent alliances and courting world opinion. I do too.
      -
      At the top of my list right now is America's continued capability to defend itself against those who would do it harm, and our energy policy.

      You know why Palin is so excited to be VP? Cause she knows John Mccain's gunna bite the dust soon and she will become President… so yeah then an Alaskan whore who likes to go hunting and spends most of her day polishing her guns will be President. Obama has to be president… it's about damn time for a change!!!

    91. 91

      There are a LOT of ignorant, dumb comments on here, which are nonsense and complete lies! Before you make up your mind, do the research on both candidates, read up and get your facts straight, so that when you fill out that ballot form in november you can be 100% sure that you vote for the candidate who will represent your ideas and interests in the best possible way! Don't go by what the media feeds you, what your mom, co-worker, priest, collegue or whoever tells you! Do the research and KNOW who you vote for! Because based on these comments, a lot of people here are completely CLUELESS, close-minded, bitter and or brainwashed!!!

      Re: LatinDaddy – I GOT YA BACK… HARRY IS JUST A LOST SOUL WHO NEEDS PRAYER… OH AND IM MIXED (PUERTO RICAN& AFRICAN AMERICAN).



    93. 93

      AS a matter of FACT! McCold just spent a ton of private money on a commercial about Barack not even to discuss his own issues and had the nerve to use factcheck.org in the commercial against Barack and guess what factcheck.org did not even 10 minutes after the commercial was aired? They told McCold and the rest of the world "OH NO We didn't say that about Barack". HAHAHAHA they spent all that money trying to smear barack only to get shot down. EVen musicians dont want the REPUBES using their music. How insulting. THey disgust everyone with their fascist agenda! LOL. Barack is gonna come back as he is known to come back from much worse.



    94. 94

      McCain is a threat for Obama!! He's also a threat to America and the whole world!! People say that McCain isn't like Bush, but why does Bush suppport 100%??? The world is sick and tired of this war in Iraq and Bush made everything worst!! McCain also wants too keep the troops there! Isn't that a little like Bush??



    95. 95

    98. 98

      We REALLY should care what the world thinks. We need to stop being so arrogant and saying "well good thing the rest of the world isn't voting, America is #1!"

      There's a reason the entire fucking world, as well as the "liberal" media–every god damned station on TV (even Fox news at times) is backing Obama: we need change, we need America to stop looking like the red neck, inbred Mecca of the world. If any of you have travelled outside of the US like I have you know the prejudice certain countries have against us because of the Bush stigma and it's embarrassing (no, I'm not saying I'm embarrassed to be an American).

      The world knows it, YOU know it, America needs change!
