  • Tribis, on 07/17/2008, -5/+22This will probably be buried simply because it is not in favor of Obama.
  • ftx437, on 07/17/2008, -5/+18but of course it won't! digg loves obama! they'll make there excuses...
  • cashman57, on 07/17/2008, -6/+19OBushma has zero military experience and would not know a tactical operation if he was in the middle of it.
    He claims that by adding two brigades he will "win the war that must be won in Pakistan and Afghanistan" and also has come out on both sides of the Iraq issue many times. He said he would pull troops out, then said he would leave them there and change their name to strike force, then said he would pull them out and then he would leave them there.
    Maybe he is trying to get the pro-war vote and the anti-war vote at the same time.Maybe he is schizophrenic. Maybe he has an evil twin. In any case he is not a leader, not a commander, and has never been too much on courage.
    If people continue to listen to OBushma long enough he will start sounding like Bush.
    • BECoole, on 07/17/2008, -2/+7Obama voted for FISA, didn't he?

      The more reality smacks him in the head, the more his policies will resemble Bush's.
    • quesi, on 07/17/2008, -3/+1They are blue-blood bruthas you know...
  • exgop, on 07/17/2008, -7/+22Don't read too much into this, Oblah-blah shuns away from any townhall environment where he and his handlers don't have control of the questions being asked. Without a teleprompter Oblah-blah shows his true colors as a mental midget.
    • KJeffV, on 07/17/2008, -6/+18Exactly!
    • SheilaNoya, on 07/18/2008, -5/+4You mean the fake townhall meetings where McCain is still insisting that only HIS special "event coordinators" control everything? McCain is the one who refuses to give up control over the tiny crowds he can muster.

      Nice try at spinning this, but repeating a lie doesn't make it true.
  • PolishLogic, on 07/17/2008, -5/+14Of course he doesn't want to. Why would he? I mean, what good could come out of hearing from the people who's family members are participating in a war?

    Especially considering he's now shifting away from his "immediate and complete" withdrawal plans, and is now admitting he's consider military action as a way to deal with Iran.
    • Navigator7, on 07/19/2008, -0/+2Not to mention øBama's ideology stands in stark contrast to the military ideology.
      øBama's words are a threat to the lives of members of the military in combat zones as he is giving aid and comfort to the enemy with timelines and throwing Bush under the bus.

      The enemy wants the kind of change øBama is selling!
  • TYRONEBR549, on 07/17/2008, -5/+14He showed some smarts here. If he would have gone before these real Americans he would have been booed off the stage.
    • hope4god, on 07/18/2008, -0/+6Amen, Tyrone your a great American I wish you a great weekend my friend. Go USA!!!!
  • dkapuchino, on 07/17/2008, -6/+15Let me get this straight... He'll meet with our worst enemies, but he wont meet the families of our troops?
  • hope4god, on 07/17/2008, -5/+6Why is anyone surprized? ObamaGate doesnt want to face families because ObamaGate wants to surrender America to the Terrorists that we are fighting right now, I hope the people here can see through Obamas real purpose that if Obama talks with Families of American Military, and if Obama appears to be supportive and has a heart, for the courage this fine Men and Women and families show by the sacrifices that are made for this country, then Obama and his Liberal Hate America crew will disown him, and he will appear to look like a President that cares about the American Military and clearly he does not.I cant tell you enough that ObamaGate friends and the Liberal Actors and blame America first people all support this joke and that should be enough for anyone, when Muslim countries are supporting a guy and they hate America its not because they finally have decided to like America its because they found a guy like Obama who will help them destroy this country. McCain is not the best choice but he loves America and cares why would anyone not vote for that and vote for a no name, no talent, good looking talker who has no real good plans for America.........
  • Ruler4you, on 07/17/2008, -6/+6BO wants all of the benefits and perks of the office but wants little or nothing to do with the work that's associated with the job. He hasn't done his home work 9 times out of 10. He won't debate because he does his best work when some one else hands him the answers. He can't think on his feet and when he is shaken he can't gather his thoughts for quite some time. Sounds like a perfect plug and play for what we have. We don't need any more of that. And the 'change' we need isn't just a change of name plates on the office door of some idiot figure head.
    Right now neither BO nor JM actually reflect the best that this nation has to offer as leaders with a vision or even a plan. Neither enjoys the level of confidence of members of the House or the Senate to the point that should they become elected they would be a force to be reckoned with.
    But with the (low) level of commitment our government has demonstrated for leadership vs. partisanship they can't even get out of their own way.
    Americans know what needs to be done this election cycle... we need to make a clean sweep, I never vote for an incumbent any thing. They just do not demonstrate leadership.
  • SheilaNoya, on 07/18/2008, -5/+8This is a total lie.

    Military bases are under control of Bush and his cronies. By law, they're not even supposed to be used for political purposes.

    Since Obama receives more donations from military personnel than McCain does, it's clear that he has support from them. Furthermore, our military bases won't let anti-war veterans be part of their "staged" events. There are plenty of military groups that do NOT support the Bush/McCain war in Iraq (listed below):

    - Iraq Veterans Against the War
    - West Point Graduates Against the War
    - Gold Star Families for Peace
    - Military Families Speak Out
    - Service Academy Graduates Against The War
    - Veterans For Peace
    - Operation Homefront
    - Veterans For America
    - Peace Out
    - GI Hotline
    - Bring Them Home Now

    You can find links to all of them here:

    • exgop, on 07/18/2008, -4/+3lets join a organizations full of cowards and traitors.
      • SheilaNoya, on 07/18/2008, -2/+368% of Americans are against this war and the incompetent way it has been conducted. Do you really think calling the vast majority of Americans "cowards and traitors" is going to help Republicans win?
      • hope4god, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2Exgop, thanks for the honest thought it was mine also, my Grandpa fought in WW2 and always said not everyone wanted to go we went because America is a beacon of hope, and freedom around the world, and when America stops helping, God forgive us for the world will suffer from the turmoil of people and Govts that dispise Peace and Liberty.
    • hope4god, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2Shelinoya, you know ObamaGate is a traitor and not for America come on Liberal be honest we are doing better in Iraq and you and the Liberal media know that, thats why your pissed you want Americans to die and peace to fail in Iraq so Muslim Obama can get in and really wreck America.
  • MoniqueMoniCat, on 07/18/2008, -7/+5O'DRAMA HATES AMERICA.

    oops! he says "he loves america in 'his own way'"

    he and his hood rat heffa need to scurry back to chicago, and delve in the leftover trash from the giancana empire. the same fate awaits him if he doesn't.
  • MoniqueMoniCat, on 07/18/2008, -6/+3REF: READ DOUBLECROSS BY GIANCANA'S BROTHER RE: UNHOLY ALIANCE WITH THE CHICAGO POLITICS AND PRESIDENTIAL RACE OF THE 60'S
  • thefirstenemy, on 07/18/2008, -3/+8Obama meets with military families all the time. Not going to one "town hall" in fact actually does not mean he "refuses to meet with military families". Sorry, but this is *****.
  • norman666, on 07/18/2008, -3/+7It will be buried, not because it is against Obama, but because the headline is so disingenuous that the whole caboodle borders on the inaccurate. Come on, Obama has met with hundreds of military families over the course of the campaign. He won't go to this one meeting...
  • hope4god, on 07/18/2008, -2/+1Noya, do these ''68%'' have access to daily Theat Matrix imfo? specialized undercover groups that monitor Terrorists threats around the world? have access to Police, Homeland Security, and FBI report data bases and Com reports of illegal weapons shipments and gatherings and training of large groups in areas of the world where laws are zero. Noya the general population hasnt a clue of any real threats, and so arm chair QB all you want and pull out your ''Facts'' and one day Liberal 68% vote in a area that is a liberal anti-Bush no matter what and stop the ObamaGate hate America scum..........
  • SuperVepr308, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2I'll bet he wouldn't mind meeting with Militant families.
    • hope4god, on 07/18/2008, -0/+3He has already Rev Wright, Louis Farachaun, and the Underground movement which is a group dedicated to hurt America.
  • Navigator7, on 07/19/2008, -0/+1DIGG...It is a changing.
    Great comments.
    SheliaNoya still confused as ever.

    øBama has nothing to fear over enemy space or in the war zone.
    http://www.thepeoplescube.com/images/Obama_Osama_Y ...

    If anything, friendly fire might be his biggest concern?
    Pardon the irony.
    • hope4god, on 07/20/2008, -0/+0Hi 7''s Happy Saturday to you, yeah im with you no Noya lately??? ObamaGate is making the rounds in the Middle East how predictable, oh well we both know what the ending story will be, rest to sure God is with you and us, and not to worry for your name is surly secured with our Lord, my very very best to you and yours my friend your Brother in Christ Jeff @ Hope4God
