Rep Power: 237 | | | You're Not Helping, Nancy Barack Obama set a record yesterday, raising $7.8 million at a political fund raiser in San Francisco but unfortunately that isn't what we will be hearing about constantly for the next three days and sporadically for the rest of the campaign season.
What we will hear about instead is what Nancy Pelosi (D-Botoxlavania), who was present at the fund raiser, said to describe Barack Obama. Quote: The candidate was particularly fired up in this speech, confident and assertive, having finally shaken off the vacation dust. He was warmly received by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the hometown gal was neutral during the primary, but wasn't shy about her Obama affection tonight, calling him "a leader that God has blessed us with at this time." Obama one day record haul: $7.8 million at San Francisco big donor fund raisers - Lynn Sweet
You're doing it wrong, Ms. Pelosi. Have you been paying attention at all this campaign cycle? The right has been trying to paint the support for Obama as blind Messianism ... that his supporters worship and defend him like he's an infallible deity. And now you essentially say that Obama is a candidate chosen by God? You've GOT to be kidding me?! You have just given ammo to the Pill Head ... Rush Limbaugh, the Uber Douche ... Sean Hannity, and their legions of Internet foot soldiers in their quest to take down Obama.
Look lady, please just stop talking for the next couple of months ... at least until the election is over and we can get around to finding a more competent Speaker. Go back into hiding like you did around this time in 2006. Obama doesn't need your help. |

The whole point of my OP is that Pelosi's "help" will hurt him and therefor he doesn't need it.
If her help will hurt him then it isn't helping. |

Rep Power: 102 | | | I'm sorry you can't understand complex thought. But, what could I expect from someone who still believes everything Obama says?

There was nothing complex about your thought ... you said something foolish and got called on it ... nothing more, nothing less ... you are only making yourself look more foolish by injecting a weak ad hominem here. |

Not that I'm aware but I'm guessing she's had to have done something to become Speaker ... I'm not about to dig for her though ... both she and Harry Reid need to be taken out of leadership posts for the next Congress. |

Rep Power: 208 | | | I'm thinking that perhaps the Speaker is not a coveted position, and if somebody actually wants it, the other members of the senate heave a big sigh of relief and hand it over....

Rep Power: 5 | | | This thread is funny because:
A) Little O wen on to appear at the DNC framed by temple-like columns and got razzed for it real hard
B) the faux outrage over Gov Palin's prayer for the troops
"a leader that God has blessed us with at this time" <-- stupid fundies.

It says JSanders is smart enough to not vote for some idiot who thinks the planet has a fever or another idiot that has it seared--SEARED--into his memory that he was listening to pres. Nixon on the radio weeks before Nixon was even sworn in.

Didn't you know that Ned Sanders was a Clinton supporter, but now has such a rabid hate of Obama he'd sell his soul to David Duke if it would keep Obama out of the WH. So, he might not have voted for Bush, but as both would be pushing to have their IQs hitting triple figures (even when added together), it would not suprise me if he did vote for the chimp...Hell, he's so stoopid, he'll probably be voting for him again....

I doubt the rest of the country will be the least bit impressed that a bunch of wealthy, far leftwing liberals from the San Fran area donated a bunch of money hoping to buy the results come election night. In the end, they still only get a single vote each too and don't get to buy any more. Except maybe in Florida. Better way to spend his time is boning up for the debates. As a freshman Senator of less than 2 years (and only five months of actually doing the WORK of a Senator), he better be good at what his advisors tell him to say in response to the questions put to him. And the follow-up ones. |  | |
