Obama's Camp Responds!

Filed under: Barack Obama > John McCain > Sarah Palin

wenn1995654.jpg

So, what does Team Barack think about John McCain's choice of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to be his Vice Presidential running mate.

Well, Obama's spokesperson, Bill Burton, says:

"Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency," Obama spokesman Bill Burton said in a statement.

Burton also criticized Palin as a vice presidential pick for her support of oil drilling in the Alaskan wilderness and her anti-abortion stance, referring to the 1973 Supreme Court decision that made abortion legal in the United States.

"Governor Palin shares John McCain's commitment to overturning Roe v. Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush's failed economic policies. That's not the change we need, it's just more of the same," he said.

So, that's what they say.

What do U say????

    Re: Cutie – Oh yes, nuclear power is the answer to everything!! Chernobyl isn't taught in American schools is it? Oh well, you Americans get to screw over the rest of the world while we all sit, cry and wonder why such stupid people get to pick the world's biggest dumbass. Rrthuglicans are Neanderthals. Wise up!!

    Re: Squirrel – Do you have any idea the amount of maintenance a child with Down Syndrome can be? Do you realize those children have trust issues? Now how is Palin going to be away doing the country's business while she has a child screaming for Mom, and not be distracted? Is she going to institutionalize the child? Am I digging a deeper ditch or truly taking a look at what it takes to be a mother of a down child, and a VP. I am certainly not saying that she can't do the VP work. If Cheney can do it, how hard can being a VP really be? In which case her experience as a govenor is probably more than enough, but what if McCain dies in office? Can she even handle the Presidency?

    Re: Flippar – I can't properly respond to your argument since I can't speak for women. I was just pointing out how language like that isn't taken too kindly by feministas. By your suggestion, you are inferring that she should forgo her career to be a stay at home mom. You can nuance it all you want but you will have no better results than Obama has had with nuance ie "above my pay grade". That really wreaked. I'm surprised Democrats haven't come up with the standard line to deliver whenever the question is asked. Pelosi stepped in it too. Ooops. now abortion is an issue. Doh!!! Dems didn't want that.



  5. 305

    I love how Obama just insulted most of his voters, small town America.

    she has More Accomplishments, a proven track record than Obama. More integrity and character in her little finger than the chosen one. that is all//

    Re: Squirrel – Life is full of nuance. If one isn't trying to guess the nuance then is one really evaluating someone for the position of presidency.

    Re: Hannah – And yes he may have offended some small town voters, but those people were probably going to vote republican to begin with.



  8. 308

    Obama, by Dec. you will be a bitter memory. You stole votes from Hillary by keeping Edwards in the race. You deserve to lose. And your wife is a bitch.

    Great response,
    starting to sway my vote…not yet!
    But, a Dipshit Repukin attacked me on another section and people like that ,I just don't know if I can be apart of!!



  12. 312

    You chose to leave out that she was a 2 term mayor before being a governor. You may want to be as accurate with the republicans as you are with the democrats. Good for her with the oil. It's ours, lets use it. With water in my state, it you don't use your rights, they can be taken away from you. Russia has already laid claim to our oil offshore of ALaska and this will be next. What else are we supposed to do with it? Feed it to the polar bears?

    Re: Flippar
    Yes, we do have an idea how she will run a family and a nation. Just like that bitch Libra from the BigBrother Houze…with the

    MCCAIN HAS ALREADY WON.



  14. 314

    SAD, I am going to have trouble sleeping tonight. If McCain becomes president (knock on wood) and highly likely happens (he kicks the bucket) this loon will be commander in chief. Maybe we should all apply for our Canadian visa's now.

    Either way we are screwed. NOT a fan of either. Obama is the AntiChrist, and McCain is simply ridiculous.



  20. 320

    I don't like McCain but he's got some balls! Its a clever political manuever and it may even work. Obama turned his back on Hillary's supporters and McCain's taking advantage of it. And as for experience, Obama doesn't really need to be accusing anyone for a lack of experience. I've always voted democratically but I swore that if Obama didn't include Clinton on his ticket, I would not vote and I'm sticking by it. (I am not voting for McCain either)….I think its time for a third party. We have two SHITTY choices and I'm not happy trying to choose which shit stinks less.



  21. 321

    So Obama is calling her out on having no foreign policy experience? Uhhh…he doesn't have any either. Looks like the obama camp is running out of negative crap to spew.

    322

    HE ONLY MET HER ONCE BEFORE CHOOSING HER. SHE IS A POOR MAN'S HILLARY AND SHE PALES IN COMPARISON TO HILLARY. HILLARY SUPPORTERS BAKED THE WOMAN AND THE AGENDA. PALIN FALLS SHORT ON BOTH!

    Re: krazihottkelli/bitchygrl – No, I am not a teacher…and, I haven't worn a bun (or, even a french twist in my hair, for years).
    Given that,….there ARE just some things that are left behind when we reach our late teens and adulthood.
    For example….we don't 'doodle' the names of our boyfriends/girlfriends/crushes on scrap pieces of paper, we don't make crank calls, we don't TP homes on Halloween, and…we don't use anything but legitimate words to express our thoughts.
    You may be out of high school and an adult (chronologically, if not maturity-wise)…but, you sure as hell don't seem like it.



  24. 324

    GO OBAMA
    stupid mccain did it cause its a woman
    if i was standing rite next to him when he decided i bet you he would've chose me
    he dosent care about the country he just wants power



  25. 325

    Flippar:
    I know you enjoy spending your night provoking every person in this blog who disagrees with you, but your time would be better spent not revering over Obama's transcript, but the truth. It was a Republican, Reagan, who ended the cold war, not his Democratic collegues who opposed Reagan. Quote "we the US have not always lived up to liberty and equality" He is bashing the US, in a country that was liberated from Nazi control by the US military. Throughout his speech, he uses backhanded comments against the policies of this country to justify his position ON FOREIGN SOIL!!! Instead of visiting troops in Germany, he stood them up to participate in a photo shoot in a hotel gym. Don't believe everything you read, and if you are going to attack the comments of others, don't assume others haven't heard his speech. Some people don't fall as easily as you.



  26. 326

    Faireyes, at least Obama had the brain to choose a veep who has major foreign policy experience.
    Andy27 you look like an Osama. Takes one to know one I suppose. Birds of a feather etc…..hmmmmmm….



  27. 327

    Forget experience–this female is a CREATIONIST.
    I can't think of anything more repellent in any job.
    I saw her in an interview on TV, and when they asked her to tell something about herself, her response was to reveal a some ridiculous tidbits about–her husband!
    She brings on the LOLs in a scary way.



  28. 328

    @ least she's prolife. she's probably just against abortions after 3months! (which is fair!) Its sick when people say they're for abortions after 3 months BECAUSE having an abortion between 4-9months carries a high risk for harming the mother && its just like murdering an infant!! (im not kidding LOOK up the procedures used! its nasty & wrong!) GOOGLE (pictures) "Partial birth abortion"!!! Educate yourself on the issues before you vote! Know what your for & against! (im not telling you what to believe, im just telling you to look into the issues because the opposing canidates will say anything to make the other guy or girl sound awful)



  29. 329

    Re: B in Austin – but the state of alaska makes more money than your state, B Austin. If we were a company, we'd be a fortune 500 company easily. LOL, each and every Alaskan resident is getting about 3200 dollars in less than two weeks just because of how much money our state has made in one year and since she's been running it - compared us getting half of that that last year - which was still our largest permanent fund dividend ever. LOL know your shit before you talk it

    No, I am not mad (only dogs get MAD, by the way…but, you probably missed that during your schooldays, huh?)
    I never 'threw Hilary away'…but, only someone as intelligent as you would blame ONE person (in a country of MILLIONS), for the loss of the Vice Presidency to 1 woman. No, she wasn't my only game piece….I have others.
    I will pass on your offer to eat that 'zhit'. What the hell is 'zhit', anyway? A four letter word, and you can't even spell THAT correctly. Your parents must be SO DAMN proud of your education.

    Re: Earlobe
    Yes, when are women going to be smart enough to realize that THEY ARE ALL VICTIMS!!!!
    But they go about their lives, filling them with such empty achievements as excelling at sports, getting educations, getting married and starting families, running for public office and winning, etc. One day they will wake up and see that such"achievements" and "priorities" are just a sham and they will be crying themselves to sleep every night, knowing that they could have lived free, aborted those babies, told those husbands no thanks to the shackles of matrimony, and generally live lives of little consequences so as not to be pawns in anyone's game. One day she'll wake up and realize that she could have majored in Sociology, for God's sake, and lived in a commune where they grow their own organic food. What a wasted life she leads, especially with thinking that life is a "gift" to be "celebrated", even when a child is born with a disability. Doesn't she realize what a victim her child is too? What's the matter with her? What kind of hooey is that anyway?

    Re: marie28 – Oh so you didn't read the Washington Post which stated the Pentagon asked Obama to not visit the troops, that it would look political. THE PENTAGON ASKED OBAMA NOT TO VISIT!

    The Soviet Union would have fallen with or without Regan. Read some other history other than Republican trash.

    I also suggest you re read the speech given in Germany. I am glad he is against some of the policies of this nation. Obama and 80% of this nation are against this Iraq follie.



  36. 336

    Ok - so lets put a "community activist" in direct control of the white house. Let's put this in perspective - Obama has "0" experience. He became a senator and spent his time as a senator positioning himself to become President. He better keep his trap shut about experience. She has actual real accomplishments to back her up. She is a tough chick who has worked really hard.



  37. 337

    the whole world is gonna laugh at america if McCain wins…just like we did when bush won the first time…think before u vote..if it even matters…

  40. 340

    How in the fuck can anyone think that our economy isn't in fucking catastrophe right now?!!!! and it's all because of george w. bush, aka the worst president in the history of the united states. If ANYONE would like our economy to continue to go down into the shithole, voting for Mccain is your prerogative. If people are honestly going to say that 'the only reason obama is for change is because he's black', they honestly need a reality check. it's 2008, wake the fuck up people.

    also, because of how old mccain is it's likely that he could drop dead at any given moment. would you feel comfortable with this completely inexperienced woman as your president? please!!



  41. 341

    Re: Women for McCain – Its not a fucking murder…. try being a 15 year old pregnant female who conceived through rape like I was!!!! After you have experienced that you can say abortion should be illegal!!!!

  43. 343

    It would be great if most Americans understood Public Policy and how it works. This Presidential elections will be different. Who knows who the winner will be as both Republicans and Democrats have their concerns. I hope everyone who posted a comment is a registered VOTER. I wanted to inform the person that commented about Palin being Gov and it is like running a country. Go back to your High GOvt classes as State govt is extremely different than federal. How can you compare? Granted decisions are made but not in a grand scale. Who really knows who will win, anybody is better than George Dubya Bush.



  44. 344

    mccain 2008



  45. 345

    *
    I have some friends in Venezuela that just told me Hugo Chavez is donating to Obama's campaign.
    *
    By turning down $84 million in federal money, Barack Obama will be allowed to raise and spend an unlimited amount during the election. Obama is the first major party candidate to reject public funds since the system started in 1976.
    *



  46. 346

    I can't believe some of these comments. First, not all abortions are because someone "regrets an irresponsible decision", there are other reasons, and speaking of irresponsible decisions who has a 5th kid at 44, not to mention returns to the office 3 days later? And who is going to take care of these 5 kids including a special needs newborn while she's off being vice president? Granted, I support her ability to chose either way–people just need to look at all sides of such an complicated and personal issue.
    Secondly–drilling in Alaska… there are two schools of thought here: yeah it would be nice to support our oil-addiction without being dependent on the middle east, but it's going to take 10 years to get to this (while inevitably destroying some pristine wild places). And oil is a finite resource. Or we could spend the same time period investing in renewable energy sources and maybe clean the air up a bit while we're at it.
    Third–to everyone that says Obama (please don't call him Osama, that's just ignorant) doesn't have a real plan and only a tagline of change: watch last night's speech. or do a little research. He's got a lot more good ideas than the republicans do right now. And he's smart enough to listen to other people's good ideas as well.

    And yeah she looks like Tina Fey, but I would rather have Tina Fey herself lead the country than this lady.



  47. 347

    I am canadian and I dumb founded at some of you American who are planning on voting for John Mccain in the next presidential elections . I suggest Mccain supports start educating themselves about American politics through this maybe you will realize that the Republic party and there redicoulous polices are only destroying your country . You are so fortunate to have presidential candidate like Obama and I only wish our country only had a leader like him.

    I don't understand why you consider having a 5th child at 44 is irresponsible…44 is not "too old" to have children…

    obama is a communist

    my familys going to have to deal witha communist leader who captivates his audience with great speeches and promises of change all over again

    im not saying that mccain is the best candidate but hes better than the communist that repeatedly makes factual errors in some of his speeches

    you can agree with me or disagree with me everyones entitled to their own opinion and thats mine



  52. 352

    He could have said it better.



  53. 353

    Flippar:
    Read the transcript, listened to the speech… You are wrong on every point, but I don't expect you will get it because you want to whine like every liberal about what a racist, uncaring, terrible country we live in. Maybe announce every flaw we have to our allies oversees so we can win an election. Very patriotic of him. Sixty years ago that man would have been worrying about some hick hanging him from a tree. He had the opportunity to go to a great university, get a great job and run for president. We have freed Germany from Nazis and Iraq from a Genocidal Maniac. We enjoy a high standard of living, a good education system, and the opportunity to live our dreams. And our country is bad??? I don't remember asking you personally for your opinion, nor do any of the others you feel the personal need to provoke. So do everyone a favor: move to a country you like better and shut the fuck up.



  54. 354

    This is really sad….The move is very orchestrated, by the party, but not by McCain…You can tell in the expression on his face in most of the pictures (he looks embarrassed or like he wants to throw up).

    This country cannot continue to be the laughing stock of the world. Taking advantage of the people that cannot defend themselves and giving more power to those who can..

    Re: Chauncey – Right, but having a child at 44 greatly increases the likelihood of down syndrome and other developmental problems.

  62. 362

    boring



  63. 363

    First off, I'm against abortion. It totally goes against what I believe in. HOWEVER! Its the people's choice whether or not they want to do abortion. ITS THEIR CHOICE. After all, this is a free country, right? You can't make other people's decision.
    Second, get your fucking facts straight. Go read the candidate's plans; don't listen to some shit you hear in the street or whatever crap other people are talking about. Read it for yourself to understand it.
    Third, I don't think McCain chose the right VP. Just saying.
    And please, no bashing. This is my opinion. I am entitled to say it out loud.
    OBAMA 08 - CHANGE.
    and p.s.: its not Osama. Its OBAMA.

    Re: acm0592

    Obama's entire campaign is not based on the fact that he is Black because he isn't black he's biracial yo,u red necked uneducated, racist. His mother is as white as yours and mine.

    The theme of "Change" refers to getting away from the failed Bush-Cheney policies that McCain wants to continue.

    Try actually LEAVING your trailer to learn about the world before you comment on it.

    President Obama! I dont get all of this experience crap the right is throwing out about Obama. He may not have been in DC, cashing in for a LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG, time, but he was out hitting the pavement representing the poor and disavantaged on the streets. He has a real ability to understand whats going on in America. I consider that real valuable experience much more than skipping votes in congress while vacationing in one of their seven homes. And a good point I once heard: "Dick Cheney has experience"



  71. 371

    i'm sure some of you notice that Obama's name is similiar to Osama Bin Laden….but have you also noticed that if you break down Bin Laden's name it comes out to be Biden….Obama's Vice President!!!



  72. 372

    WHATEVER… if you write OBAMA BIDEN from far away… one could easilly get mixed up reading OSAMA BINLADEN… All just COINCIDENCE?



  73. 373

    I am *violently* opposed to anyone who even *thinks* about taking away my right not to have any kids I don't want. A woman has every right to control every thing about her own body, *INCLUDING* birth control. Until men can give birth the decision will never be up to them. I will never ever accept that.

I was kinda just giving a vague example about how things get spun & how important it is to know the facts. I guess my other main point was that people are quick to throw the abortion thing in there but not many readers actually know the facts on abortion… & to make a decision on your beliefs you should look it up. (But yea Idk anything about that woman, yet!) I hope she's not a D-bag.

    What people don't no is…
    The President has NO say about abortion WHATSOEVER.

    ROE isn't going to be overturned anytime soon.
    This is what it would take to make that happen:
    Two courts would have to have conflicting resolutions on the same abortion case. That won't happen, because the judges adhere to the Constitution, aka ROE.
    The Supreme Court gets THOUSANDS of writ of certiorari requests every year. They will choose around like 80 to view in court.
    THEN the judges would have to overrule it. But that won't happen because Ginsberg, Souter, Breyer Kennedy and Stevens will be IN FAVOR of Roe.

    The President has NO say on what cases make the court. NONE. So litmus tests are ABSOLUTELY pointless because the probability that an abortion case will reach the court anytime soon is slim to none. IT WILL NOT HAPPEN.

    So stop worrying about any candidate's view on abortion. They can't do anything about it. Only the court can.

    I don't think there was any dig on her experience from Obama… J.M. is old. IF he dies while in office, she would be prez. That's the whole point of VP. I think J.M. is tryong to get the disgruntled Hilary backers on his side. It might work, but I hope not. Truth is, experience doesn't always equal integrity, which I think Obama has. That's what I want in the leader of my country.

    Well I think they refer to it as drinking the "kool aid"…..So serve me up a big ole glass of Obama Aid cause I'm tired of using the dollar store lube we been getting screwed with thus far.

    Brilliant move by McCain - I guess we should not write off the old geyser just yet. Now Barack will have the same problem that Billary had whenever they criticized Barack - they could be accused of being racists. So now, Barack will be accused of being sexist. Oh you have to love the political correctness sh*t that the Democrats spew - it's going to be their undoing. Hate to say it, but it does rather look like 4 more years, and Barack's screwed. Now all Billary has to do is make sure Dems attack poor Governor Palin so that McCain wins because all of Hillary's fem-dems will not vote for Barack, and presto Hillary gets to run (and win) in 2012.

    Re: krazihottkelli/bitchygrl – RE: antichrist/Obama Everything you said is just your interpretation of what the bible says in revelations (or what you've been told) The bible is very cryptic so you are way to precise to be right.

    he's charming, persuasive, no other president-to-be has gotten so much press and attention (he broke the viewing record in TV history for his acceptance speech) he's a Christian Muslim Zionist LOL so he supposedly has got it all covered. If president he'll put the country back on track and FIX all the problems here and abroad, making a "god" to everyone on planet earth. Think about it if Mother Teresa and Princess Diana were idolized how much more would a president that fixes all the middle-east problems and problems abroad would be?????
    The mark of the beast is already in place it's called the "verichip" (google it) by the end of his term he can have everyone branded with the verichip and no one on earth will be able to buy/sell/ID themselves without it. making it a globalized requirement to live. and if by the end of his term his WIFE RUNS FOR PRESIDENCY they'll have 16 years to take over the world, why not? Hillary ran…….. and this new air-head is running… there is a lot to say too much for website to publish

    Re: Cutie I believe in a woman's right not to be a slut and use abortions as birth control..

    Amen. Too many women/men don't want to take responsibilities for their actions. I keep on hearing "WHAT IF YOU WERE RAPED!11" But they represent on SMAL SMALL percentage of abortions. MOST abortions are performed out of birth control reasons. Simply the mother is too selfish to deal with it.

    Re: acm0592

    What sort of change is 4 more years of the last 8? Please, John McCain would be like a second Bush, meaning a complete and utter destruction of the United States. The economy is going down, Mortgage metldowns, the good middle-class we used to have is now unsafe…Imagine FOUR MORE YEARS OF WORSE!
    And John McCain still wants to continue the war in Iraq, a huge economic waste. We've seen the patriots come and go in this country. Enough of the hypocricy!
    “Hypocrisy and distortion are passing currents under the name of religion”-
    Mahatma Gandhi
    Exactly what Mr McCain is doing. What is his change? I'm sorry but I think it's a repeat of the Bush campaign.
    His whole campaign revolves around his rival, Mr Obama. That's all he can give us, the cons of Barack Obama. Nothing else. I don't believe that's tremendour change.
    And Mr McCain should have been retired by now! Who wants a man who forgot what he ate this morning to rule the country?
    I'm not saying for sure Obama will be the best president yet, but he definetely has an interesting theory to prove : the change he can bring to America.
    Definetely more inviting then Grandpa McCain.
    BTW for those who still think he's fully black, no, Barack Obama's mother is white. And it doesn't even matter what someones color is, it's the actions that count!
    TEAM OBAMA

  94. 394

    sarah palin was the mayor of wasilla, a small town outside of anchorage and now she is the governor. As governor she is doing an ok job, but it scares me to think that if mcain were to be elected and were to kick the bucket while in office she would be president. She has no experience and she doesn't really know shit without people telling her it. It will be interesting to see how she handles the debate with biden. Mccain is just trying to get clinton supporters who aren't 100% with Obama to vote for him.
    oh I am pro choice, non-partisan, and I believe in drilling ANWR, which is just a bunch of melting tundra with some caribou and a shit ton of mosquitis. Anwar's caribou populations will survive even with oil drilling, but no human wants to be up there in the winter because its flat and butt ass cold and in the summer there are more mosquitos than you could imagine.

    Re: DonnaBardinogianni John McCain would be like a second Bush, meaning a complete and utter destruction of the United States.

    Anyone that says this is a moron. A utterly complete moron. You know Biden told Kerry to get McCain for his vice president right? You know hillary and bill was all about McCain in the last election saying he was no Bush and he'd have made a better president right?

    They are just now flip-flopping. Just like they did before with Iraq. And you've drank their kool-aid. Congrats.

    This is all true. Accept for the last part about Hillary winning. She didn't get a chance this time, and she wont the next. No one but a handful of fanboys/girls like her in Washington. She's a back stabbing two faced bitch. And a liar. And a politician on top of that.



  97. 397

    EVERYONE needs to go back 5 years and read what EVERYONE that is involved has said. That means Obama, McCain, Biden and Palin to get a true picture. Not just what they have said RECENTLY. Because that is all political shill.

    Some of you had no idea that Biden himself is a big McCain fan and even told Kerry to get him for VP. And the Clinton administration was attempting to use McCain to belittle Bush. McCain at one time was a anti-Bush mouthpiece that the left are now trying to paint as being JUST LIKE HIM.

    So instead of believing known liars. DO RESEARCH YOURSELF. You'll find their stories don't always match up. So far McCain/Palin's stories are matching up more than the Obama/Biden stories are.



  98. 398

    Lets for example, take a look at Biden.

    Biden has done nothing since he was in his 20s other than sit in the Senate. He is a caricature of the worst sort of Washington politician, a person of limited ability who is intimately tied in to various interests and lobbyists and who, in more than three decades, has done nothing to improve the way Washington works or to contribute creatively to any public policy issue. Biden is a Washington insider in the worst sense of the word.



  99. 399

    Palin?

    alin was opposed by the entire Republican establishment in Alaska, including Senator Ted Stevens–after whom the Anchorage airport is named–and Congressman Don Young. Notwithstanding the hostility of her party's elder statesmen, Palin defeated Murkowski in the primary. She then faced the popular former Democratic Governor Tony Knowles in the general election. In what would have been considered an extraordinary upset just a few months earlier, Palin trounced Knowles, despite reported efforts by her own party's leaders to defeat her. As Governor, she has enjoyed approval ratings in the 80s.



  100. 400

    What cracks me up is their mean spirited reaction to her getting it

    "Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency."

    Isn't that the pot calling the kettle… black?

    :lol:
