| McCain Flip Flops on Ethics Reform - Pandering - 108 sec
RUSSERT: You've flipped, senator. You were very much in favor of that kind of transparency, and then you voted against it on the floor. Why have you flipped on a legislation that dr. Dobson cared about, conservative groups cared about? Is it because you're trying to win their favor in your race for president?

| Obama; "Fathers are AWOL". White Vote Pandering? - 399 sec
Is Obama taking his lead from Bill Cosby? If so, then Barack Obama might also point out that Cosby has stated how he believes that some blacks use racism as a crutch to explain lack of economic progress. What a very well refined typical politician Obama is.
Obama talks tough on 'AWOL' fathers
By MIKE ALLEN | 6/15/08 2:08 PM EST
Talking tough on Father's Day, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) challenged African-American men on Sunday to play more of a role in raising their children and warned them that "responsibility doesn't just end at conception."
"Too many fathers are MIA. Too many fathers are AWOL," he told a huge African-American congregation in Chicago. "There's a hole in your heart if you don't have a male figure in the home that can guide you and lead you and set a good example for you."
"What makes you a man is not the ability to have a child — any fool can have a child," he said, to applause. "That doesn't make you a father. It's the courage to raise a child that makes you a father."
Obama drew laughs when he talked about gyrating portrayals of him in the media: "That was when I wasn't black enough. Now I'm too black." Responding to cheers and applause, he added ruefully, "Y'all remember."
Obama said parents can't use lack of government resources as an "excuse" for not doing anything for their children: "As fathers and as parents, we've got to spend more time with them, and help them with their homework, and turn off the TV set once in a while, turn off the video game and the remote control and read a book to your child."
The point about the remote is one Obama often makes on the campaign trail, always to big applause.
Obama met this week with evangelical ministers, and the speech could help him reach out to family-oriented conservatives who remain unenthusiastic about Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.).
Obama's fatherhood speech was delivered at Apostolic Church of God in Chicago, where the crowd overflowed from the 3,000-seat sanctuary into the banquet hall.
Obama's wife, Michelle, and their daughters, Sasha and Malia, also attended.
The senator declared that even many two-parent families can do a better job of preparing their children: "It's a wonderful thing if you are married and living in a home with your children, but don't just sit in the house and watch 'SportsCenter' all weekend long."
Obama began by saying that too many fathers are "missing — missing from too many lives and too many homes," having "abandoned their responsibilities, acting like boys instead of men."
"You and I know how true this is in the African-American community," he said. "We know that more than half of all black children live in single-parent households, a number that has doubled — doubled — since we were children. We know the statistics — that children who grow up without a father are five times more likely to live in poverty and commit crime, nine times more likely to drop out of schools and 20 times more likely to end up in prison. They are more likely to have behavioral problems, or run away from home, or become teenage parents themselves. And the foundations of our community Reeling off a list of potential excuses, Obama acknowledged that cities also need more police, "fewer guns in the hands of people who shouldn't have them," more money for schools, better teachers, more after-school programs and more jobs and job training.
"But we also need families to raise our children," he said. "We need fathers to realize that responsibility doesn't just end at conception."
Turning to his own life story, Obama said he knows "what it means to have an absent father, although my circumstances weren't as tough as they are for many young people today."
"Even though my father left us when I was 2 years old, and I only knew him from the letters he wrote and the stories that my family told, I was luckier than most," he said. "I grew up in Hawaii, and had two wonderful grandparents from Kansas who poured everything they had into helping my mother raise my sister and me — who worked with her to teach us about love and respect and the obligations we have to one another. ... So my own story is different in that way.

| GAS TAX HOLIDAY SONG and Pandering!!! (and the TRUTH) - 452 sec
Hillary doing what she does best Pandering for votes, this time by promoting her "Gas tax holiday" scam. There isn't a single credible economist in the country that is willing to back her idea - Not one!!!
Additionally a group of economists from all different political and idealogical stripes have come together and opposed this same idea, as well as nearly every major newspaper in the country!!
Heck even her own campaign knows that this is a scam, and have admitted as much to teh Washington Post...but it is "good politics" (i.e. - Hillary can win some votes). So even though she understands the fundamental flaws of the idea and that there is ABSOLUTELY zero support in the senate, she is running a scam for votes. It's sad Hillary - really, really sad!!!
Well - if there are any HRC fans out there - enjoy defending your girl...good luck...
Cheers
(also - my apologies to Tom Friedman of the NYT's - I accidentally failed to properly attribute part of my rant to you...my bad - sorry).

Chris is reminded of the moral confusion of the campaign...wow. While McHil-Rod the duck-hunter takes a break and relaxes the grip a bit trading the rifle for a pump. She's all pumped up on pennsylvania proof and stumbles onto the O'Reilly show to be with 'er people over at fixed news. She's hopin' I guess for some republican numbers as she approaches her demise in Indiana where the fix ain't as fixed as PA.
Oh, yeah, they also discuss Barack and the Reverend, as well as 'macro-economics' Imagine that?

| Hillary Clinton's Flag Desecration Pandering - 21 sec
Video from NY1 of Hillary Clinton pandering to the jingoist crowd with trying to make it a federal crime to desecrate an American flag. This would include flags outsourced to India and China.
Richard Cohen said it well:
"The First Amendment is where you simply do not go. It is sacred. It protects our most cherished rights -- religion, speech, press and assembly -- and while I sometimes turn viscerally angry when I see the flag despoiled, my emotions are akin to what I feel when neo-Nazis march. Repugnant or not, popular or not, it is all political speech. Her sponsorship of the flag measure calls for reconsideration all around -- either by Hillary Clinton and her support of the flag bill or by liberals and their support of her."
