Barack Obama is lying to Virginia voters today about the future of Medicare, about John McCain's goals for the future of Medicare and about Obama's lack of ethics about Medicare (and about lying).

But he's not lying about pie! He loves pie! He tells crowds everywhere that he loves pie. He loves pie so much, he mentions pie sometimes thirteen times in one speech, even when people are losing their jobs, their homes, have lost their savings, Obama loves pie! Financial crises...but what about pie?!

From his suffering dive circumstances while lodged at Catholic Charities' donors' expense at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel ("hotels of the rich and famous") in New York City this past Wednesday...

...Michelle Obama called room service and ordered lobster hors d'oeuvres, two whole steamed lobsters, Iranian caviar and champagne...

He needs all that luxury so he has the strength to lie about McCain and Medicare before voters in Virginia and talk about more pie.

This is pathetic! Man's an incompetent boob!

From HOTAIR, this report:

Anderson Cooper asked Barack Obama last night to answer the claim that Sarah Palin has more applicable experience than he does. In response, he completely ignores Palin's status as governor, and then makes the claim that a campaign counts as executive experience:

AC: Some Republican critics say, you don't have the experience to handle a situation like this [Hurricane Gustav]. They've in fact said that Governor Palin has more executive experience as mayor of a small town and as governor of a big state like Alaska. What's your response?

BO: Well, you know, my understanding is that, uh, Governor Palin's town of Wasilly [sic] has, uh, 50 employees, uh, uh, we've got 2500, uh, in this campaign. I think their budget is maybe $12 million a year. Uh, uh, we have a budget of about three times that just for the month. Uh, so I think that, uh, our ability to manage large systems, uh, and to, uh, execute, uh, I think has been made clear over the last couple of years. Uh, and certainly, in terms of, uh, the legislation that I've passed just dealing with this issue post-Katrina, uh, of how we handle emergency management. The fact that, uh, many of my recommendations were adopted and are being put in place, uh, as we speak indicates to extent to which we can provide the kinds of support and good service that the American people expect.

McCain's response, via his campaign, is, first off, far more intelligent by comparison (and otherwise), as it is also far more "word efficient" and succinct. Gets the job done, issue addressed, question answered.

Update: The McCain campaign has responded to Mark Halperin at Time:

"For Barack Obama to argue that he's experienced enough to be president because he's running for president is desperate circular logic and it's laughable. It is a testament to Barack Obama's inexperience and failing qualifications that he would stoop to passing off his candidacy as comparable to Governor Sarah Palin's executive experience managing a budget of over 10 billion dollar dollars, and more than 24,000 employees." -- Tucker Bounds, spokesman John McCain 2008

I can see it now, the huge and wasteful governmental-mess that Obama would create if he could: filled with waste, elaborations, circular avoidances of any conclusion, generalities enough to annoy even the most patient person, expenses to "pay for" all of that including an eventual, belabored conclusion that is dumbfoundingly foolish, such as Obama's conclusion, that he's experienced to be President "because (he's) running for President."

What a doofus!

Go McCain/Palin '08!
Sarah Palin's executive experience trumps Barack Obama's.

Heh, these are amusing posters, found linked amidst HOT AIR comments by "Chakra Hammer." I don't know whose work these are, but, they're clever. Sadly, they're also realistic and to the changity point.

HERE and HERE.

All egoism and self promotion aside, Obama's lost his ethical mind -- or, perhaps, now brazenly parades to what extent he's never had an ethical mind. He's renaming and redesigning the national seal of the United States of America and using it to promote...himself!

Is Obama's Great Seal Illegal?

Did Obama break the law?

But, well, scusami -- perhaps -- because I know one can't speak out about the Fuhrer. I mean, Fuhrer's don't like that. They could just, well, create websites accusing others of "smearing" them and go about trying to ruin the reputation and character of anyone who has opinions the Fuhrer doesn't like. And the idolators of the Fuhrer, they might just scream and point at those of us who refuse to bow to his Seal of the Beast.

So, O.K., let them scream and point - it's not as if that's going to change.

Al Gore and Obama share a hug-a-lie:

(Gore) (hugging Obama in Michigan after endorsing him) said Republicans criticized President Kennedy for being too young and inexperienced to be president...

So the meme of the last hour is that Obama's synonymous with former President Kennedy as to -- here it comes, yet again, from Democrats -- that "age" issue.

Obama's being criticised because he and his politics are wrong. But these Democrats are really, really hung-up on this "age" thing: too old, too young...they start these rants, they then blame Republicans for "smearing" Democrats for the Democrats' rants. Now they're smearing John Kennedy by alluding to some Obama relationship (this works for the Kennedy family members when they engage in this rhetoric, because people are trying to be kind and keep a reserved distance, but when it's alleged by anyone else, it's patent fakery).

In fact, it's Obamabonics on acid.

Speaking of Obamabonics on acid, these following threads from the "majors" among us Conservative bloggers are remarkable proof that the Democrats are busier than ever making things up and blaming "crackers and the rightwing" for the very lies Democrats make up.

Fight Their Smears: ABC News, Bob Beckel, Time, AP, Guardian, and NYT slime the Right

Pro-Obama Media Sliming 'Right Wing' Blogs

Disgrace: Beckel blames right-wing "crackers" for his own Michelle Obama smearmongering

Is it any wonder that Obama/Democrats are leaning so heavily on "youth"? You have to be naive to believe these snakeoil subliminals, is why.

And read my earlier posts on this same conclusion, now affirmed by these other bloggers.
