Main Stream Media continue to distort the real facts of Hillary's so-called impressive wins in West Virginia, Kentucky and some parts of Pennsylvania -- a False Victory, in part due to Rush Limbaugh's "operation chaos"! This area is heavily populated with Republican conservative voters who would not vote for Hillary in the general if she was to become the Democratic nominee, something the cable news stations know due to their exit polls, but have failed to point out to the unsuspecting public. Once again they fail to tell the people the whole truth. I wonder why?
However, women who are Hillary supporters who choose not to Vote for Barack will be complicit in seeing their sons and daughters, nieces and nephews, husbands and fathers go off to a war that might last a 100 years!
might be complicit in helping to elect judges that will put an end to Roe. v. Wade....
might be complicit in not getting the college aid their sons or daughters will need for an affordable higher education... or possibly themselves if they choose to go back to school!
might be complicit in not finding solutions for global warming... and failing to be a good steward of the Earth...
all issues women with intelligence and foresight care very deeply about.
This despite Hillary and her surrogates who continue to fuel a racial and gender divide, something which does nothing to serve the common good!
Karl Rove is called a "political wizard". However, Senator Obama will expose Rove and the GOP as Wizards (as in Oz) --illusionary figures masquerading behind a curtain of Deceit! The Republican Pretenders are skilled in rituals of smoke & mirrors -Experts in Demonizing and Belittling thier opponents through smear and distortion . We, the American people, are tired of their trickery's and lies based on illusionary fear-mongering and not fact, and like the Wizard of Oz, when the curtain is pulled back by "the light of truth", they will be exposed as the fakers and the pretenders that they are -- with loud, silver-tounged voices filled with vinegar and no Real Power -- pulling strings of "make believe" to coverup their own innate weakness and Experienced villainy, an In-Experience and Naivite that Barack lacks. This unveiling will enable us to finally get off this merry-go-round -- this "yellow-brick-road" of illusion and deceit perpetrated upon the American public by these ShapeShifters and Betrayers of the Public Good.
This massed negativity has been a real detriment to American economic progress and peace in Iraq. Such pretenders and shapeshifters are like a millstone around the neck of humanity, crippling true effort. They proclaim Family Values, yet do nothing but impede true progress while the American way-of-life is dying. Any bills offered by Democrats which will benefit the American families, the GOP votes NO! This massed, organized negativity has been what has enabled them to work so ruthlessly with power and success at the destruction of all that has attempted to get in the way of their projects, desires and greed. They refuse to recognize that humanity can solve its problems without aggression and force and instead use the energy of goodwill and diplomacy, sharing and cooperation.
If you disagree with the Pretenders' politics, however, (I do not say policies for they lack true policies) in unison they attack by subterfuge, distortion and lies to disquise their true intent --the control of money and power for the GOP family only (so much for family values). Masters in fear mongering and shapeshifting, they hope to incite fear in an unsuspecting and gullible American public and to get them to embrace thier plans out of fear and against their own common sense and good judgment! Only this time, we will dispell this Illusion and not be fooled again by these "fakers, con-artists and Pretenders", and our united House, born out of need and true change, will withstand the onslaught of this False, now Fleeting Wind that has devastated the American way of life, no more; their House of Cards are Falling!

We should recall what Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill wrote in position 8 after World War II in The Atlantic Charter, both who knew and were familiar with the horrors of war....
Position "Eighth, they believe that all of the nations of the world, for realistic as well as spiritual reasons must come to the abandonment of the use of force. Since no future peace can be maintained if land, sea or air armaments continue to be employed by nations which threaten, or may threaten, aggression outside of their frontiers, they believe, pending the establishment of a wider and permanent system of general security, that the disarmament of such nations is essential. They will likewise aid and encourage all other practicable measures which will lighten for peace-loving peoples the crushing burden of armaments."

Unfortunately for Americans, President Bush, McCain and the Republicans prefer to speak in half-truths and/or distortions of the truth, preferring not to find pertinent answers or solutions to the issues facing us today, one example the Real Threat of Global Warming! They think finger-pointing and speaking in a loud voice will deflect the attention away from their failing/failed policies -- that we will forget that they fooled us before (Iraq War).
The Republicans will promise and say anything to stay in power, although their conservative polcies do noting to help the American people in their day-to-day lives. Gas prices are higher than ever before, as is food (they won't even support the farmers although food is a necessary element for life), we have erroding schools, bridges and roads, jobs which go overseas or job closings, billions of dollars going to a war which should have never been waged and those dollars do nothing to help the Iraqi people who are still suffering and have very little electricity, adequate sewer facilities or the use of their own oil. We have record number of home foreclosures, medical bills which are going through the roof and thousands of people who have no health insurance at all.
Every year Democratic Senators and Congressman have to fight to even get a decent minimum wage raise for American workers while Republicans continually give theirselves an annual wage hike, yet it is the American people who hire them to work for them and not the corporations they bail out time and time again. They pretend to be the Party of Family Values when they are really the party of special interest groups, corporations and greed! They care nothing for suffering families -- college tuition has never been so high, barring thousands of young people from attaining a higher education and achieving the American dream. Their tax code, again, benefits the wealthy and leaves out the American family. They call themselves conservatives which is a nice way of saying they are selfish and like to conserve the wealth for themselves! They make fun of the word "liberalism" like it is a dirty word when we all know liberal means to give amply and generously, something they want not to happen preferring to keep all the wealth and goodtimes for themselves and their corporate buddies.
They devise wars which only weaken the fabric of our society by shell-shocked veterans weakened physically and mentally and children who have to grow up without their fathers or mothers because they are either overseas fighting a war or have died in a war when diplomacy would have been the greater action to take. These same veterans if they are lucky to come home have deplorable hospitals to come home to and a battle to get their benefits. If they suffer from mental disease they are often found homeless, as we have shut down the majority of our mental hospitals accross the United States... and yet Republicans continue to fool us that they are the Party of Family Values. They fooled us with WMD's and took us off on a path of delusion by fighting terrorism in Iraq when it was oil they were after! Bin Laden is still at large. We cannot believe anything they say... Let us not be fooled again, because frankly we cannot afford it!
As for a Gas Tax Holiday, John McCain or Hillary will not be President this summer so how can John McCain or Hillary really Implement this idea into FACT.. they can't! It is a gimmick that they cannot produce on... That is so sad, and another example of Politicians trying to fool people for a vote on an idea or Gift they can't deliver on or produce. It's basically dishonest and a lie! Barack will not make a Phony Promise to the American people!
As for the obliteration of Iran remark, we should recall what Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill wrote in position 8 after World War II in The Atlantic Charter, both who knew and were familiar with the horrors of war....
Position "Eighth, they believe that all of the nations of the world, for realistic as well as spiritual reasons must come to the abandonment of the use of force.

Less we forget!
P.S. On Morning Joe, Joe said as they watched a clip today of Hillary speaking in Indianna and commented on how Inspirational she had become. What they did not say is that the speech sounded an awful lot like a Barack Obama Speech!
When Barack first entered the public arena, he said We all pray to an awesome God! That we are not red states or blue states but the United States... and that is his simple message and goal, to unite Americans. With nothing to gain, Barack said this at the Democratic National Convention for Kerry when he reached out to all Americans -- not just the Democrats! However, they have tried to skew it by stating he does not even pray to the flag, he's a Muslim -- and going forward they (the forces of Materialism and Corprate Greed) will do all they can to confuse us, but if you go back to your first introduction of Barack, at the Democratic Convention, you will realize that that is who he really is!
Only the Republican-controlled Media and Team Clinton (The Two-Headed Giant)want to keep us blindsided by Rev. Wright controversy because it divides us as Americans and does not unite us. The Republicans do not want us united, to find our Powerbase, which would be to their demise. The Clintons because it fuels a racial divide although when they were facing Bills's Impeachment, they called Rev. Wright to the White House for prayer and support. We must not let them blindside or brainwash us again and take us down a path like the Iraq war... there are WMD's -- Iraqi oil will pay for the war and yet our gas prices have never been so high -- economy is good, and a host of misleading statements, sniper fire included. We have a man in Barack who is aunthentic, honest, who truly sees a way for us to be united and to work on our common goals... He is not an elitist, that is another attempt to blindside us and divide us!
Mike Huckabee was right-on in his recent comments regarding Rev. Wright and his need to stay bitter to justify his anger against some people in America, an anger and bitterness that Barack does not share.
In picking the next President, we should be looking for one who has shown character, ethics, and morality. Who ran a positive campaign and did not chose to attack, lie and distort their opponent's record. We should ask ourselves, who can we believe to be truthful? Who can we really trust to do the people's business and not give in to the special interests and corporations? Who did not get down in the gutter when things got tough?
Unfortunately, Hillary and her camp took the low road and used a Kitchen Sink/Tonya Harding strategy which should be a part of the past and should be beneath the way we do politics today, as we work towards building a more equitable and holistic society for all. Unfortunately, Hillary and her supporters spoke out in ways which had the effect of pouring fuel on racial and gender problems in our society -- in a "misquided" divide and conquer strategy. This is not a positive or moral way to run or win a race! If Team Clinton were really concerned about African Americans and Womens' Issues they would never make any kind of statements which would further fuel these gender and racial divisions laying below the surface in this country. Unfortunately, Hillary and her camp have been shown to be untruthful and unethical. When caught in lies, they laugh it off and say they misspoke, misspeaked, and misstated. Unfortunately, they are not honorable people and do not show the kind of character and emotional maturity that one should have to run the highest office in the land.
It is unfair to the nation that they would rather tear this country down and move it backwards, to pit one group against another and to incite animosity and hatred for personal ambition and gain, than to talk about the real issues facing Americans today, if we are to move forward and overcome our problems. And sadder yet, no one in the Republican-controlled Media is talking about it. This penchant for them to incite divisions is the very reason why some in the Democratic Party have called for her to step aside! No one objects to a healthy and honest debate on the issues, but what people do and have objected to, not that she is a woman, but that she is a woman who has gone ballistic, in a very negative way. She is like a hurricane that does terrible damage and we must wait for it to abate. It is unfortunate that she has lost her moral compass!
Again, let us recall who Barack is. What his mission is to unite all Americans. Let us not be brainwashed by Republican-controlled media who will build up Hillary Clinton at this time for their own political agenda. Let us not be fooled by Republican-controlled media who will offer Gold and then give you dust. Let us not be fooled again!

Barack - "Investing in People; God Bless America"
Hillary supporter, Dr. Rev. Barbara Reynolds is a media consultant who has endorsed Hillary on her website: Reynoldsnews.com., and that in a spirit of enthusiasm, reached out to Rev. Wright and tempted him to tell his story at the Press Club to redeem his good name, and the good Rev. Wright took the "bite." This ploy and scheme by Hillary supporter, Dr. Reynolds backfired and has helped Barack redeem his campaign!
Let's be Clear: There was a time when Rev. Jeremiah Wright was once higly respected and sought after, hence his trip to the White House invited by Bill and Hillary Clinton for Prayer and Support when they were going through Bill's Impeachment time. Some of Hillary's strongest surrogates also have close ties to Rev. Wright, Shiela Jackson Lee and Rev. Marcia Dyson!
Going forward, however, Barack has to reiterrate all that got people interested in his campaign in the first place, the fact that he does stand for unity and for reaching out to all classes of people, which deflects that he is an elitist. That he works and stands for the working people and that he always has. That to get anything passed these days you need Change in Washington, away from Corporations and the special interest and invest in people! There comes a time in each Society for the sake of survival, they must Change and As a man of "goodwill", it was hard for Barack to see the egomaniac in Wright. However, when it became clear by the total spectacle Wright made of himself in front of national TV on all Three (3) cable-news channels, which played his Entire Speech -- something usually only Reserved for Presidents! And, Barack was right to divorce himself from Wright for the sake of the work and change he is trying to bring to the people. One Ego or a few Egos cannot or should not get in the way of the "Good" of the Whole!
And yes, it was time for an amicable Parting of the Ways between Barack and Rev. Wright who has definitely put a sword in his side. I now understand why Barack thinks some people are bitter -- he has been conditioned to think that way by the bitterness of his former Pastor, to think that some people are bitter, although Barack was not subject to this bitterness himself but was able to overcome this conditioning and escape it rather incorporating the engery of unity, goodwill and hope, instead! I hope, we the people, will not be blindsided by the onslaught directed at this Candidate of Change and Hope we have in Barack Obama and miss the boat again, by allowing him to be "Swiftboated"!
Barack "Investing in People!"
