No wonder our country dis-trusts the government
Quote: (CNN) -- On three occasions since January, Sen. Barack Obama's passport file was looked at by three different contract workers, said State Department spokesman Sean McCormack.
The contractors accessed information in the file in an unauthorized way, he said.
Two contractors were fired and one was disciplined by the contractor's company, McCormack said.
He said the contractors are not linked.
The breach seems like "imprudent curiosity" among the contract workers, said McCormack, adding that senior management at the State Department was not aware of the incidents until Thursday afternoon. Breaches occurred January 9, February 21 and March 14.
Obama's campaign is asking for a complete investigation to find out who looked at Obama's passport file and why.
"This is an outrageous breach of security and privacy, even from an administration that has shown little regard for either over the last eight years," said Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton in a statement.
"Our government's duty is to protect the private information of the American people, not use it for political purposes."

Since most of fuckers are inbreed retards I'd like your take on the below comments by Obama that I have to admit are hurting him.He wasnt going to win PA anyway but now he's killed himself with the whites in the middle of the state and Pissburgh.I think he's 100% on point but said it poorly.You can't say people cling to religion even if its true without pissing religious people off.It's an honest statement which is the problem.No other politician would have the balls to say that which is why I like him.
"You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not.
And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

Basically, if I am reading it right, he's saying "People want steak and potatos. If you only put chicken, hot dogs, rice and beans on the menu, then they will have to be tricked into ordering one of those things, because that isn't what they are hungry for."
I love you.

I agree so you must be right.Cling or clingy has negative conotations that nobody wants to be associated with.People stopped listening or trying to understand what he was saying before he was even through the sentence.I think he's saying what a lot of people think.I know as a pennsylvania resident my whole life who talks to people all over the state that he's 100% dead on about people out there choosing one issue to vote on because they just frustrated in general but don't know who has the best economic plan or the best health care plan.I have talked to people this year who have said they would never vote democrat because they don't want their job shipped to china or don't trust democrats on spending.I'm like what the fuck are you talking about but what it really comes down to them is the republicans are the tough guys and the democrats are the pussys because of guns or gays or mexicans and something huge would have to happen to get them to pull their head out of the sand and really pay attention.
I have no idea what your food metaphor means.

I watched the democratic debate last night. I thought Obama had some pretty good slams, but you really have to be paying attention to catch them. I think that most people that only hear "catch phrases" and rely on other people to sum things up are going to miss all of the points he made.
I think most people will walk away from that debate and say that Hillary is not going to raise taxes and Obama is going to raise their payroll taxes.
The rest will go over their heads. I love you.

Highlights:
1. Obama takes the high road when asked why he has not personally slammed Clinton for the "sniper attack" story that she admits to have made up. He said that everyone gets caught up and makes errors like that. She's not the first and he's probably done the same thing. He said their are much bigger issues at stake and he's not going to dwell on petty instances like that.
2. Obama is accused of raising the payroll tax and hurting everyone financially. He explains that he is not raising anything, just removing the cap for taxpayers that make over $97,000 a year. Currently, once you hit $97k they stop taking out social security tax. He said he might either do away with the cap altogether or leave it at $97k and take the cap off at $250k. He has to see the numbers on revenue generated first.
3. Hillary slams Obama for raising payroll taxes (which he already explained). Then goes on to say that she is going to do what Ronald Reagan did and form a bi-partisan commission of Democrats and Republicans to come up with ways to fix social security. She that President Reagans decision was brilliant and it worked perfectly during his and her husband's administration until the dummy George W got rid of it. She said she would do the exact same thing. Then Obama asked, "Do you know where that commission decided to get the money they needed? They raised the cap on payroll taxes." I laffed.
4. Hillary repeatedly said that she would not raise any taxes. Even said that she would give tax breaks to the working class. All the while she explains these new things that she is going to give everyone. Health care for everyone, fix social security, balance the budget, lower gas prices, replace the no child left behind with a better plan. Never does she discuss how to pay for all of this and still cut taxes for the working class and not raise any taxes. Obama says "You have to be realistic. You can't promise things and not explain how you will pay for them. I'm outlining ways to generate income to pay for these things that I have said I will do. She has not."
Can people be that stupid? I love you.

The debate was absolutly terrible.What cornbred hick is going to vote for someone because they wear a flag pin on their suit?I mean who gives a fuck?In the past the GOP used petty issues like Kerry ordering swiss cheese on his cheese steak and Gore saying he invented the internet to get people who pay no atttention to the issues to dislike someone for something that has no effect on their lives.Its politics at its worst and now the Clintons are the new Karl Rove.The only thing that came out of his bitter comments is that it gave white people who werent voting for Obama anyway a reason besides he's a black guy.Her negatives have gone up as a result of her trying to lamely score points off of this non issue and I think in some strange way it made her seem like she was the one who couldnt win against mccain.
I think even hillary supporters are aware that mccain wants to face hillary and have to be suspicious of why.If my main competitor is trying to steer me in to doing something I'm usually pretty hesitant to do it because at the end of the day he's out there to fuck me.
How fucked up was the debate that George Stephanopolis who owes his career to the Clintons was one of the moderators?I mean you couldnt make that shit up.
If she doesnt win Pennsylvania by more than 10 points she will quit that day otherwise I still only give her 3 weeks after the PA primary until she drops out.The numbers don't add up for her and her negativer ratings are getting stronger and she has to be thinking about if Obama loses to Mccain she can get another shot in 4 years.

I've said it once, and I'll say it again...what decent human being wouldn't vote for that man? Even given any flaws he has, he's 100% better option than Hilary and McCain.
I love you too, flumper.

PA Primary
Clinton 51
Obama 40
I read a legit quote yesterday from a 60 year old up in the north central of the state saying he was voting for Clinton because "the worlds not ready for a black president".Obviously with jerkoffs like that around its not.
On to more important matters.With a crippled economy, housing market in shambles, record high gas prices and 4000 dead in a war based on false information our commander and chief does the honorable thing by appearing on the game show version of pick a number.I don't know about you but I'm damn proud to be an american right now.

I would love to see that as an option.
UFC on the other hand is entertaining, nothing like watching 2 guys beat the fuck out of each other.

I don't watch wrestling. I heard it on the radio in this morning and I didn't even watch the video.

The candidates talking smack in front of wrestling fans shows how low they will sink to attempt to win an election.
I had already lost all respect for the majority of them, this just cemented my views.
