"Has Barack Obama Accomplished Anything in the Senate?"
Actually YES!!!
He apparently managed to snow a bunch of head in the sand liberals that he is actually something new and different!
I can just see him and his wife laughing behind closed doors at how gullible the liberal base is. What a PERFECT group of morons to play like a fiddle to get elected to the most powerful position in the world.

"...or there was no answer to Matthew's question?"
There was an answer, it was: Accomplishments? None.
The fact that this hollow facade of a candidate is actually a Democratic nominee, to me, is chilling and very frightening. The implications are horrible!

Cactus,
I've always maintained that at least with Hillary....That made more since to me as a Democrap candidate...She's got the experience, the connections, the backing, etc...I don't like her either, but she's a little closer to the middle than Osama is...
Osama just doesn't make any sense to me...I mean, if all you had to do to be president is to make a few good speeches and call a reporter "sweetie" to get elected...
Hell, I'm in ! I'm ALL in.....

--That sounds really familiar, CactusAnnie...Oh, I know why. You said virtually the same thing about McCain not long ago:
CactusAnnie's political judgement earlier this year:
"Another great article! Excellent summary of McCain.
I knew all that, and that is why I could never vote for McCain. I don't even want to think about him being nominated!"
--How will you feel about McCain or Obama tomorrow? ;-(

It isn't just Bush or Clinton. We have elected officials all the way down to school boards that are so far left or right that there thinking should be investigated as being un American. Did you know the number one banned book in America, is Harry Potter...

That was a CNN report last year, I'm sure the other two is up there. Book banning and burning... A simple moment, yet when you take a look at the disco bashing and burning events it doesn't look so funny now. That was a musical genra heavily supported by the gay community that was abolished through violence and intimidation.

no f-ing way...
"Most of the ones who try to are attacked the way our President has been"
I don't know whether to laugh or cry. he has had every initiative passed and faced no repercussions for any "mistakes"
attacked.. no wonder the govt is a disaster, the citizens are not paying any attention.

Really?
Lying about reasons to invade Iraq.
Lying about torture.
Lying about extraordinary rendition.
Lying about warrantless wiretapping.
Bush and the rest of his cronies have most definitely gotten away with violating both federal law and the Constitution.

Delta Sierra! You have no idea of what you are talking about, you are just repeating VERY tired old lines. If you knew, it would probably keep you up at night, and I don't mean on a computer. You are just spouting off a load of crap.
It is truly folks like you who need to pay more attention to reality than your local sports teams and TV shows...

Well, here is some DOCUMENTATION for what you WISH was a "load of crap".
It is only "crap" in your mind because you REFUSE to believe it or to accept the truth.
YOU are the one that has a serious problem with reality.

bubba - Moyers, Wash Post, nytimes, msnbc, pbs. Those names I see in the links easily tell me they're liberal biased sites and not worth the time to read. I'm really surprised that Obama loving lib Matthews allowed this to be aired and pursued it like he did. Maybe he's trying to bring up his ratings. I have noticed lately he has tried to appear more neutral or conservative lately, kind of like Obama has.

Yeah, yeah ... for you and Karissa, NOTHING is "true" unless it originates from FOX News or Rush Limbaugh.
Do you also think that the United States SENATE (in my list of URLs) is a "liberal, biased" source??
You all are so full of baloney, and it is a WASTE of time to try to provide any REAL truth to you because you refuse to accept it or believe it.
It must really be hard to admit that you supported a President that has lied.
Just keep those rose-colored blinders on and keep downing the junk from FOX and Rush ... "don't worry, be happy ..."

I still believe this is the most wonderful country in the world. I do not believe you or anyone else has the right to trash it. You have more freedoms, and benefits here than any where, including the freedom to start your own business if you want to. You are not bound into doing only what your father did that gives you entry to a certain Guild. You can do ANYTHING, find something you love and prosper, contribute, get off your behind and the sky is the limit. Figure it out!!! Put a little effort into it. This country does not owe you anything just because you have breath.
And yes, the majority of people who we have in office right now have no business being there!! You vote them out! It is a blessed right that our forefathers gave us. And be very wary of voting in anti-Americans like Barack Hussian Obama.
Scary!!

Anyone that lives in this country DOES have the right to speak out when the government - and the corporations - are breaking the law and not representing the citizens.
The country may not be IN the toilet yet, but it is on its way if something doesn't happen to stop the spiral into economic disaster that the policies of conservatism have precipitated.
Banks are defaulting, mortgage companies are defaulting, millions of people are losing their homes to foreclosure, the country is NINE TRILLION dollars in debt and rising, the price of gas is ridiculous and is causing the price of EVERYTHING to skyrocket, Americans can barely afford the basics because of the state of the economy.
And as long as I live in this country I WILL speak my mind about what is WRONG, especially when 95% of the people are being deprived of decent wages, decent homes, decent education, and decent health care.

Ask the millions of families in this country that are now homeless because they have lost their homes to foreclosure, ask the 37 million Americans without health insurance, and
ask the 32 million people living in poverty about their "standard of living".
Provide documentation to prove what I said is "hogwash".
Meanwhile, here is some light reading for you ...

While Obama has said "Yes, we can change" and similar phrases, he has not used the word "change" like you all try to say he has, so get over it.

And it is ironic that you tell someone they don't have the right to "trash" our country, then you turn RIGHT around and "trash" one of its citizens - and, with NOTHING to back up such a ludicrous, knee-jerk accusation.
One more thing ... it's "Hussein" ...

Ya know CA if my zipper was down I would expect my friend to tell me.
Right now our elected officials are not caring. Greenspan told congress three years ago that the phony housing boom could bankrupt the country. Because of this not caring, 6,000 families are being moved out of their houses every day by the police, through foreclosure.
Bear Sterns "lost" five billion dollars, we the tax payer covered their lost bets
The Indimac bank closed and took a half billion dollars of uninsured savings with it.
I have an old friend that tells me "no matter what, I could always be a black man being lynched in Alabama."
If I had cancer, was in a car wreck, lost a leg, wife left me that was always his response.
Saying "So what, this is the best country in the world" is a big cop out.
It used to be a hell of a lot better!!!

Yes, it was, when people took responsibility for their own lives and didn't expect the government to do it for them. When communities came together and helped each other, and when Benjamin Franklin's axiom "A friend in need is a friend indeed".
Most Americans are still like that. Most Americans when in a pinch do not think the government should bail them out, that is what friends and community do, not out of coercion, but because they are basically that way. They help when they can, they work hard, and they don't whine because the "government" doesn't force their neighbors to do what most of their neighbors would do anyway out of a sense of caring.
This IS the best country in the world! I would think that anyone in every country would say that about their own country too.
I am proud of my country, and I am not ashamed to say so. And hear this,...God Bless America!!!!!

Speaking of puzzling questions, RedRiverJ, could you kindly explain how you got to where you're now posting attack stories about Obama from where you were mere months ago? Here, for ex:
RedRiverJ on McCain: "McCain's state of Arizona is suffering desperately yet McCain along with Ted Kennedy wrote an amnesty bill last summer for illegal immigrants. You can also give credit to fellow senator from Arizona John Kyl. If I lived in Arizona I'd make it my lifes mission to make sure both these yahoo's never got elected again in my state. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYoioZJYBCE This is worse than global warming I'd think."
--In the quote above you basically say McCain is destroying the US. You also really don't think he should be running a state (much less the entire country). Any thoughts on the gigantic leap in your trust in and respect for John McCain? It's very odd, don't you think? ;-(

I posted this video, the hit piece as you call it, because I thought Chris Matthews hard hitting interview was very interesting since a few months ago he was getting chills up his leg over Obama and claimed Obama's speeches made him cry. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/01/09/chris-matthews-obamas-s_n_80805.html

Now he is really hitting Watson hard to name some legislation accredited to Obama. He could not because there is little or he simply couldn't think of anything. Make of that what you will, that is up to each individual to determine.

RedRiverJ says McCain totally sucks below. Why no comparison of McCain's accomplishments? We want to hear about McCain Feingold and McCain Kennedy, RedRiverJ. Don't disappoint us. ;-(
RedRiverj on McCain:
"Very good article on the RHINO (republican in name only) John McCain. No mention of his abysmal, traitorous stance on amnesty for illegals in the summer of 2007. I hope when the American Citizens go into the voting booth flash backs of McCain, Obama, Clinton, John Kyle, Lindsey Graham will flash in their heads come election time. Here is a link to tell you EXACTLY how McCain votes."
-Wow a RINO and a "TRAITOR" RedRiverJ? But wasn't that you gushing over him yesterday on AG's shilljob POW story? You want a "traitor" to run your country? Wow...This pretty much sums up the con mentality. Party before country 100%. ;-(

McCain's abysmal voting record on amnesty for illegals last summer wasn't erased in my mind because I made a positive comment on AG's POW story. He, along with Obama, Clinton, John Kyle, Lindsey Graham, were more than willing to give instant amnesty to people that were breaking the law, disrespecting our country by doing so and risking the safety of the American people with little or no security checks on these individuals. I do feel it is wrong to give instant amnesty, doesn't matter if it's McCain or someone else.
