Let's hope that Rahm Emanuel is right and the world has changed. The "Disrespectful" ad should be the McCain campaign's Macaca Moment, but I doubt it.

He helped pass ONE piece of legislation, putting the spending of congress on line.  He like others will often become co-signators on bills that they know they will never have to vote on.  It dies in committee but they look like they are doing something.

The transparency act had 47 co-sponsors, it didn't require alot of convincing of the other members, unless he did 'senate-community organizing' behind the scenes! Lugar authored the Lugar-Obama bill, which is why it is named as such.  He was an important co-sponsor, not author. 

Most of his work did not even make it out of committee.

Disrespectfull my bottom. Wait till the french president and the italian prime minister get near her. Furthermore, I think the party of self annointed family values Mccain was disrespectufull to his firs wife when he started chasing Cindy while still married. And furthermore Obama voted against the war in iraq fully understanding the foolishness of getting into a religious war and not only finding ourselves in this morass, but noone seems to have the courage of placing the blame on the current administration and the chosen continuum. 

"Barack Obama has no record of bipartisan legislative accomplishment...

"Can't force Republicans to do anything"

, no history of bucking his party

"Hasn't caved in to the Republicans"

 and no chance of bringing change,"

...If by "change" you mean doing the same thing Republicans have been doing for the past eight years.

Are they working for Obama? 

This whole "respect" thing has me confused. 

I might need to refresh my memory on the definition of "respect", because I could have sworn that McCain spent megabucks putting together and airing a commercial demanding that Obama show some respect to a political opponent, and yet I haven't heard a single word on his position regarding the disrespect that Karl Rove, Dr. Kaye Whitley, Harriet Miers, Sara Taylor, etc. have shown for the Congress of the United States.

In the eyes of Rove and the others, this is the face of Congress, and the United States of America---

I posted this on another website yesterday when Carly Fiorina made the claim that Obama never bucks his party:

 

This talking point has been repeated may times (and it usually goes by without any retort from an Obama surrogate):

Obama has never bucked his party.

The proper response should be:

Americans agree with Democrats on the Iraq War, abortion, immigration, the economy, taxes, health care, education, social security, the environment, etc. so Obama doesn’t have too much to buck his party on. On the other hand, McCain has had many chances to buck a party that’s on the wrong side of almost every issue and to move into the mainstream but he’s chosen to stick with Bush 90 percent of the time. In fact, he’s moved further out of the mainstream in order to appease the far right during this election season.

 

Carli Fiorina was blaming Congrees for the Lehman Brothers meltdown today. This is a woman who brought HP below 2 dollars a share and she is Mccain economic advisor ? She actually said it was the democrats in Congress for the last two years that caused the 500 plus downfall today at DJIA.
