Obama Fails big test to prove he represents change. He should accept public financing.
This week Senator Barack Obama said he will forgo public funding of his campaign in the general election. He promised many times he would use public financing. I guess you can count lies as change? For the first time since Watergate a person running for President will not accept public funding, and the person is Obama. We can count that as bad change.
He says its because the Republicans will use 527 groups and that McCain will not tell them to stop. However he knows it’s illegal for a candidate to tell a 527 to stop so thats an Obama lie. 527’s are protected by law to be independent, they can not talk to the candidate and the candidate can not talk to them. It is interesting because the only groups so far to use nasty 527’s advertisements were the George Soros funded super left leaning MoveOn.org. The commercial they put out was a distortion of Senator McCain’s comments about the US staying engaged in the world. I am not going to link to it because you have probably seen it and I personally refuse to give it free publicity.
The real reason Senator Obama wants to forgo public funding is so that he can keep buying commercials telling you he wants change. He does not want you to know the change he wants is bad, like buying elections and raising your taxes.

Obama is proving to be one of the slickest politicians we have ever seen. We know this because they out slicked the previous greatest slicksters, the Clinton’s themselves.
I had to laugh. When the Democrat and Chronicle wrote their editorial about Obama flip flopping this weekend, they took more of a swing at McCain and barely slapped Obama for lying.
“Rochester’s D&C, an advocate of selective journalism!”
A couple of talk radio hosts, the NY Post and Monroerising vesus all the liberal radical leaning media outlets (basically, everyone else).
We’re doing our best to make it a fair fight. It’s tough though. Believe me, it’s tough.
As a registered Republican, (responding very late on this thread) i confess I am ignorant of the why’s and wherefores of the McCain/feingold campaign finance reform act. Personally, I don’t want public financing of BO’s campaign, or at least , using my tax dollars. I think iit s right for his campaign to be supported by his fans such as Bloomberg, et al. I’ve a gut feeling, if BO is POTUS, he will crash and burn early in his admin, with serious legal problems, and he will bring down his media (AP, Wash Po, NYT, et al) and Mayor B (he can go buy an island, if he hasn’t already, and build his world there) At this point, Wall Street will return to a bull market. May God forgive America..
