Obama Campaign Conference Call Discusses Hillary Double Talk on NAFTA
The Obama Campaign held a conference call discussing Senator Hillary Clinton’s allegedly changing views on NAFTA. Obama Communications Director Robert Gibbs discussed how the papers released yesterday examining Clinton’s time as First Lady confirm that she was a proponent of NAFTA but now will not admit to her backing of the trade- agreement.
Such “double talk,” Gibbs explained, is not what the American people should hear from a President. The Obama Campaign portrayed him as the clearly more reliable, truthful candidate, saying he has “always been straight” with the American people.
Gibbs said whether voters support or oppose NAFTA they should always support a truthful candidate like Obama, not one who disguises viewpoints, like Clinton.
Also discussed during the call was the Michigan and Florida primary controversy. The Obama Campaign said the Senator would support a “reasonable resolution” proposed.

“reasonable resolution” was proposed . Obama shot it down.
Obama honestly says that the question of MIch and Florida delegates is purely a question of politics.
Leave it to the Clintons to sanctimoniously pretend it's a question of freedom and democracy. Didn't Ickes vote with the DNC to disenfranchise those states in the first place?
Hannity
When did you leave your church or do you believe it right for priest to rape and have sex with little.
My next Question how can you support John McCain who has 2 preacher's that tell the world that your church is a whore.
My next Question is did you right the pope and tell him that your party didn't want the church's support because it was to dirty.
At the time Iam sending this e-mail Iam checking with the pope and other fact and will post the truth on youtube.
Thank you
For a reply
Fox new's man s Hannity saids over and over that Obama should have left his church if he didnt agree.
But he still goes to the Catholic Church after so many prist have done so many childern, why.
He also supports Rev John qand John and no one talk about it why no questions.
[...] Obama Campaign Conference Call Discusses Hillary Double Talk on NAFTA [...]
This is easily the stupidest thing I've read all day.
Doesn't he have anything substantial to talk about, like the economy or something?
Do these people just sit around and dream up this crap all day?
Brother
I have been a fighter The rights of our people all my 67 years.
But after hearing that news trying to explain Hillary statement as a misstatement when it was a lie, I looked at my grand son watching the news with me and dropped my head.
I can assure you that Ill die better than I have lived.
The trip Wright was referring to was twenty-three years prior, when he traveled to Libya and Syria on a peace mission along with an ecumenical body of ministers. Chaired by Rev. M. William Howard and led on the ground by Rev. Jesse Jackson who brought about a dozen other ministers including Minister Louis Farrakhan, the trip resulted in the freeing of United States Navy pilot Lt. Robert Goodman, who was captured after his fighter jet had been shot down over Lebanon.[30] At the White House on January 4, 1984, hours after the group arrived back in the U.S., U.S. President Ronald Reagan welcomed Lt. Goodman and said that the "mission of mercy" in which Wright had participated had "earned our gratitude and our admiration." Wright has stated that his trip implied no endorsement of either Louis Farrakhan’s views or Gaddafi’s.
You look dumb for not tell the hole story.
Does the truth mean anything in american.
After Bush you would think so But now Hillary.
What ever happens to us we ask for it
Obama told the truth in the wrong way' but hillary told many lie,s.

Its a shame that the new's thinks so little of the truth.
