It has added clarity, and detail. As you are now arguing against the policies he has, its evident he does, infact, have policies. This is the only point I wish to make, as that was the issue. I will say however that perhaps you should consider any benefits, economically, that Mexican labour may be bringing to your country. Perhaps someone else is interested in debating it, but this isn't the thread to do that in.

Anyway, I did want to respond to the OP, and I was going to compare transcripts of the speeches, but (*)(*)(*)(*) Obama's is long. I Imagine its apparent that, quite appart from any candidate's validity, Raeka is as partisan as they come, and has misrepresented Obama. Obama talks about lots of issues, delving into details, numbers etc. often.

Here are some links to transcripts. As far as I'm aware they are In their entirety- If I'm wrong in that please correct me Raeka, as I've not seen the footage.

I repeat: Obama talks in glittering generalities to young people, losers, and the uninformed, and keeps it general and gauzy so that everyone thinks Obama is going to help him personally. His web site positions are, as I have shown, very deceptive: he co-opts phrases like do something about illegal immigration or solve the immigration problem in big bold font, and then the fine print, as you have shown, reveals just standard extreme left positions.

Really? I mean....really? Bill mastered the technique of the heart string tug. Ive heard the same stories over and over so many times that they just dont work on me. How do the families of those involved feel about Clinton using their story for political gain?

Ive never heard a Clinton answer a question directly. Ill give it to her, she's better than Bill ever was, but there is just too much "Bridge to the 21st century" crap for me.



As to the "Obama Rhetoric", I have a real, honest reaction of hope and pride when I hear him speak. THATS real. Clinton's painting castles in the clouds....thats never been real.

Clinton and Obama voted the same way 257 out of 267 possible times so far. Both voting records are shown to be slanted liberal. Some reports have Obama being the most liberal senator but who knows.

But if you want a liberal government, liberal budgets, liberal judges, and liberal whatevers, pick one and you can't go wrong.
