#1 In his first stumble, White House hopeful Barack Obama on Monday took back words from the day before, when he said the lives of U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq were "wasted."

Three words, Sen. Obama: Horses - barn door.

#2 he's gonna be a peach for laughs, and I'll be called a racist for saying he's all glitter and no substance. Not ready to lead the Senate, much less the Nation.

#6 Think about this. Barack Hussein Obama and Joe Biden as running ~~off at the mouth~~ mates.
The media should love that combination. Always something to write about with having to make up stuff.

#7 Oh dear, loose lips sink ships. Don't fall in love with Obama. In spite of all the media lovin', he's going to crumble like a cracker.

Er, cracker - that's not racist is it? I didn't mean a tasteless white saltine. I meant a flavorful, tasty brown cracker like... like a Stoned Wheat Thin.

#8 Enjoy Obama while you can-- I doubt the fool is going to last but a month or two.

#9 I'm glad that Buckwheat Obama chose to enter the race. He promises to be every bit as entertaining as Jesse Jackson.

#10 I don't care if Obama looks like Anna Nicole, is smarter than Noam Chomsky thinks he is, and is as charismatic as JFK, it was a most stupid thing to say for anyone running for a national position.

#11 No wonder people were offended that he was called 'articulate'.

#12 It was a joke! A poorly told joke! You guys didn't get it? What are you, in the Army?

#15 FREEREPUBLIC POSTER > claims Obama has yet to formally state/admit whether he is a Christian, Muslim, or other; + practicing vs non-practicing.
