Inside Bay Area: "Pardon me, Obama, but your slips are showing"

Another person wising up to the truth about Obama's candidacy:

Pardon me, Obama, but your slips are showing

Article Created: 02/07/2008 02:40:21 AM PST

The phenom phase of Sen. Barack Obama's campaign may be ending. The shine may be starting to deflect off the star. Yes, it's still a tight race for the Democratic presidential nomination between the junior senator from Illinois and the junior senator from New York. But up to this point, Obama has had the distinct advantage (and disadvantage) of being less well-known. That era soon will be behind him.

Most damaging to Obama so far is a New York Times article published several days ago showing that while in Iowa during a stump speech, Obama claimed to have passed a bill regulating nuclear power plants. That measure never was approved by the Senate. The bill was to have required nuclear power plants to alert citizens if even minor leaks of radioactive waste were discovered. Under current law, only significant leaks must be made public.

While Obama claimed to have passed a bill that never did pass, he also participated in negotiations that watered down the measure to the point of meaninglessness. That didn't stop him from claiming the mantle of being pro-environment and anti-nuclear pollution while campaigning. Is this another case of I invented the Internet?

What's worse, he took campaign contributions worth hundreds of thousands of dollars from Exelon executives and employees. Exelon is the company that owned a plant that kept smaller leaks quiet. According to its own Web site, it is also the largest nuclear power provider in the nation....

2. Gee, it's too bad that some people are actually beginning to notice his inconsistencies.

It's hard to get people to want to touch the hem of your robe when your slip is showing. :)

[in_cog_ni_to]

15. THIS is fucking NUCLEAR WASTE and it just happened to be in the village where my family lived.

FOR YEARS!

When was the last time... Murdock donation party - NAFTA - Outsourcing Support caused CANCER? When was the last time tha Murdock donation party - NAFTA - Outsourcing Support killed cats and dogs? When was the last time Murdock donation party - NAFTA - Outsourcing Support made children lose the enamel on their teeth? When was the last time Murdock donation party - NAFTA - Outsourcing Support caused birth defects? When was the last time Murdock donation party - NAFTA - Outsourcing Support caused animals to be born with no eyes or legs? When was the last time Murdock donation party - NAFTA - Outsourcing Support caused deadly, unexplained illnesses?

GET YOUR FUCKING PRIORITIES STRAIGHT! The people in Godley, Illinois were drinking, bathing and cooking with Tritium water! They gave their babies this shit to DRINK! Obama has taken money from the very company that covered this shit up for YEARS! And he took the money for his campaign coffers.

Dumb ass. Before you sound off with your stupid ass Hillary bashing posts, know what the fuck you're talking about!

[Little Star]

25. It seems they have their fingers in their ears. Many of us have posted articles

on the crap he has stood for, to no avail. Sorry to hear about your family having to live through that. What real fear must have struck their hearts. They gave that water to their children. I hope the shine wears off his stardom soon, because we have real issues to deal with in this country and this world. Peace.:hug:

[KennedyGuy]

17. It's not his fault that he has so much to work with..

not all of us are busy polishing the Obama halo..

[Rosa Luxemburg]

6. I guess that's why he's just raised aver $7 million since Tuesday?

scraping the barrel

[jasmine621]

8. This means diddly squat unless the MSM reports it, and they won't

It would be huge news if Clinton had done this.

[leftynyc]

26. Nope - they'll save it for the general

People who think Obama is going to continue to get this kind of glowing coverage are naive.

[amborin]

9. to say nothing about his continual hypocrisy

criticizing other candidates' donations from lobbyists, and pledging not to do the same...

all the while taking huge sums of money from various lobbyists.......for this nomination campaign....

that's obama for you.....saying one thing, doing the opposite.....and criticizing others at the same time

[Tennessee Gal]

38. That's not just hypocrisy. That is outright lying.

He is a damn liar about "not taking a dime from a lobbyist."

[VarnettaTuckpocket]

10. Damn it Obama, we don't want to drink radioactive water!

22. "The shine may be starting to deflect off the star."

Pulitzer can't be too far away if you're writing this type of line.

What the fuck does that even mean??????

I'm officially embarrassed for the writer.

O.K., it's official. I can't vote for Hillary because of that sentence.

[calmblueocean]

24. "Is this another case of I invented the internet?" Interesting.
