Where When The Levees Broke is masterful in capturing all the elements of the crisis and disaster of Katrina and the levees breach, Trouble The Water offers an intimate counterpoint.

I would love for every JJP reader to see it for discussion and feedback…there’s no release date yet but please remember the film title!

He has some of the top advisors on the planet including an unofficial advisor in Colin Powell.
So even though he serves on the Senate Committees for Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, Foreign Relations, Environment and Public Works, Veterans’ Affairs Health, Education, Labor and Pensions and is the Chairman of the Senate’s subcommittee on European you know more than him because you were a soldier or because you are conservative. Makes since to me.
Obama 2008!

I’m with you…to a point.

One could argue-and probably successfully-that military drawdowns under Clinton, B. contributed to some of the problems the military’s facing today.

We cannot fight the wars of today-and those to come-with the military of the last century. Of course there’s some fluff in defense spending, but to suggest cutting some of most advanced programs-especially when you may or may not know enough about them to speak intelligently-is not smart.

You probably should’ve stopped there…

-Too late. George W. Bush has already done it.

You should have warned eyeryone back in 1999. karmi.

Do moderates have a home in the Democrat party?

-Why do you care?
Oh…that’s right…you don’t.

I linked the article because I love and respect the varied thought on this site. And I think as a political site reading different perspectives of history and discussing them is interesting and, for me educational.

Hillary’s Emancipation Proclamation

BWA HA HA HA HA HA AH

Don’t kill me…but, if anyone was a Republican it was Malcolm.

I’d be interested in hearing people discredit the information. I like to hear/read all perspectives.

Has Obama been able to ‘transcend’ the label of ‘inexperienced’?

Hillary lost support among the far-left when she tried to move to the center on foreign policy. Obama moved to her left to curry favor with them and they have claimed credit for his win. Anti-semitism is rampant on the far-left and Obama has been forced to walk back from his strong support of Israel regarding an ‘undivided’ Jerusalem.

While some may have tried to blur the line between the positions of Clinton and Obama, Hillary is viewed by many in the party to be more moderate, and she had their support.

Why isn’t McCain a better fit for Dems who can identify more with the DLC wing of the party that has been all but vanquished by the kos/moveon/code pink wing of the party?

If folk want to continue to project and project and project, go right ahead.

You’re talking to yourself.

By acknowledging the Blue Dog Democrats, you answered your own question, s.

“68% of voters believe most reporters try to help the candidate that they want to win.

The perception that reporters are advocates rather than observers is held by 82% of Republicans, 56% of Democrats, and 69% of voters not affiliated with either major party. The skepticism about reporters cuts across income, racial, gender, and age barriers.

76% of voters believe the media has too much power and influence over elections.

Voters have little doubt as to who is benefitting from the media coverage this year—Barack Obama. Fifty-four percent (54%) say Obama has gotten the best coverage so far.

Looking ahead to the fall campaign, 44% believe most reporters will try to help Obama.

Even Democrats tend to believe their candidate will receive better treatment—27% of those in Obama’s party believe most reporters will try to help him win.

Among unaffiliated voters, 44% believe reporters will try to help Obama.”

Does Obama benefit from the perception that he is the ‘media darling’ among independent and undecided voters?

For all the talk of geographic, racial and gender gaps among Dems, is there no ideological divide?

And “Karmicommunist” is just trying to use my people as a political football to stir up trouble and division. Not interested in truth, only interested in the spin.

You are using my people and you are not our friend. You are using us. Shame on you. For shame that you would play this game.

At the bottom of the site it says:

“Content on blogs in My.BarackObama represents the opinions of community members and in no way should be interpreted as endorsed or approved by the campaign.”

You spreading this information on a blog, instead of clicking on the “Report Objectionable Content” link puts you in the very same camp as the person who posted it IMO.

I am a Jew and I recognize that you are just trying to stir up trouble.

In my view you’re just as bad as the poster in your actions on this.
