- Troika37, on 05/09/2008, -1/+8Why was this man fired? Obama's stated policy is that he will negotiate directly with anyone.
Secondly, why do all these terrorists keep thinking Obama is one of them? - Troika37, on 05/09/2008, -1/+8Funny. Just a few months ago the Obama supporters were insisting that Malley had nothing to do with Obama.
Martin Peretz: There are all kinds of spooky rumors that a man named Robert Malley is one of Obama's advisers, specifically his Middle East adviser. His name comes up mysteriously and intrusively on the web, like the ads for Viagra. Malley, who has written several deceitful articles in The New York Review of Books, is a rabid hater of Israel. No question about it. But Malley is not and has never been a Middle East adviser to Barack Obama.
Politico: An Obama spokesman, Tommy Vietor, says, “Rob Malley has no day-to-day advisory role in the Obama campaign. He is among many people who has given his advice to the campaign. The actual day-to-day Middle East advisor is Dan Shapiro.”
Perhaps only the Messiah can fire someone who doesn't even work for him. - CaptainAmerica1, on 05/09/2008, -0/+6This is just pre-election maneuvering. If Obama is elected Malley will be back in the picture and terrorist organizations across the globe will be rejoicing.
Bottom line - if Obama is elected, it will be very very bad for us regarding the fight against terrorism. - DaDrake, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4This story needs to be on digg. It certainly is more important than the nonstop delegate count.
- elleigh2, on 05/10/2008, -0/+3If ya lie down with dogs you get up with fleas! There are just too many far left radical associations for BHO. The MSM is desparately trying to cover all of these associations up, just like they covered for the Clintons for 8 years. Wake up! I do not agree with everything McCain says and wants to do either, but at least, I believe he is a man of integrity and strong character and loves this country. He has served it well! Obama is an unknown with no track record of experience.
- veersite, on 05/11/2008, -0/+1You will never see this story on the MSM. Feuxbama is the "chosen-one" and will be given the kid-glove treatment right up to the election. McCain will be given the opposite. My only hope is that people see through the heavy-handed bias and recognize Obama for what he truly is - a Marxist.
Hey, if the next president just HAS to be black, then let's drag Colin Powell kicking and screaming to the White House. At least he has a record, has proven his character, and has served his country in the most meaningful way possible - by laying his life on the line to protect it. he's a Moderate, but at least he wouldn't try to impose the failed teachings of Karl Marx on the greatest experiment in individual freedom the world has ever known. And if the next president just HAS to be a woman, well, Condi is smarter than any candidate we've got... and I'd bet money that the diamater of her political balls dwarf those of any Democratic candidate we've seen in the last 40 years.
Nuff Said.
