Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Friday he would be willing to support limited additional offshore oil drilling if that's what it takes to enact a comprehensive policy to foster fuel-efficient autos and develop alternate energy sources.

This runs against the grain of liberalism.
But, OBAMA YO-MAMA tells the people what they want to hear, knowing well he would never permit off-shore drilling if he were president.

This big-eared little piss-ant is pulling at every straw. After all, the liberal handbook spells out that you should lie to and deceive people at every opportunity. The end justifies the means.

See the true OBAMA, the confirmed racist, the crazy radical muslim at:

If Obama keeps flip/flopping on more issues he is going to start looking like some carp thrown up on shore after someone removed the hook from it's mouth.
Just wait sooner or later he will flip/flop on his "my grandmother is a typical white person" comment.
He will never flip/flop on what he said in an interview 3yrs ago which was: " I believe in having the experiance needed for the job before applying for it. I will not have the experiance necessary in only 3yrs to run for President."
liberals are terrorists

What a bad flipper. First he flip with his elephant ears,then flops with his big nasty mouth. He use to be a clown, now he is a chameleon. The sleazy slime will do enything to be elected. But americans know him by now better then themselves, especialy after a new book of true obama portrait now #1 on book sale. What a crock.

Not crazy about McCain, but Obamby is utterly ridiculous. Change apparently means a change on a daily basis as to what he stands for. The only thing that is clear and he definitely keeps it cloaked is how deep his tax proposals will reach.
For example:
Want to sell your house? 28% on profit for All home sales. Tell that to seniors who may have to relocate to assisted living.
Dividend tax? 39.6% vs. current 15%. This would also hit mutual funds, IRAs life insurance funds.
Income taxes? Expect every bracket to more than double.
Then throw this into the stew:
A tax on any new home greater than 2400 sq.ft.
New gasoline taxes.
New taxes on natural resources consumption (heating, gas, water, electricity)
New taxes on retirement accounts and........

New taxes on socialized medicine, so you can receive the smae level of med care as other third-world countries.
Inheritance tax? Bamby wants it restored

Hey I predicted this a while back. He also wants to give out $1000 rebate checks to help with high oil costs. He'll give us a rebate check only for us to give it away to middle east countries. Makes since to me. I have a better solution; Drill Baby Drill!!

From 'straight talk' to smear campaign--JOHN MCCAIN
http://www.youtube.com/watch...
The UpTake's Chuck Olsen interviews author Irwin Tang about his book, "G--k: John McCain's Racism and Why It Matters."
"I hate the g--ks," McCain said yesterday in response to a question from reporters aboard his campaign bus. "I will hate them as long as I live."

McCain Criticized for Slur
----------ECONOMY STUPID----------
REPUBLICAN JOHN MCCAIN NEED TO KNOW AMERICANS ARE NOT FOOLS!
OIL FOR VOTES-----
http://www.youtube.com/watch...
http://www.youtube.com/watch...
Republican John McCain said Monday that drilling for oil off the U.S. coast is an essential part of any plan to lower gas prices and reduce dependence on foreign sources, and he criticized Democrat Barack Obama for opposing it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch...
REPUBLICAN JOHN MCCAIN NEED TO STOP THIS FALSE FIGHT TODAY. ALL THE MONEY JOHN MCCAIN PAY FOR SMEAR ADS SHOULD BE GIVEN TO CHARITY.
This oil problem did not start over night and McCain has had over 50 years to do something. Now Republican John McCain want to attack congress for a few weeks of time away. This is very foolish. Mr. McCain need to realize this is not the kind of leadership america need. This is OLD WASHINGTON greed and it need to stop. America say no to of BIG OIL CO., McCain, Bush and all who work for big oil. Middle class american need to take back ownership in america. McCain plan will not reduce gas prices, and it will not reduce america dependence on foreign sources. REPUBLICAN McCAIN NEED TO UNDERSTAND AMERICANS ARE NOT FOOLS. Oil production in 33 out of 48 out countries has now peaked, including Kuwait, Russia and Mexico. Global oil production is now also approaching an all time peak and can potentially end our Industrial Civilization. The most distinguished and prominent geologists, oil industry experts, energy analysts and organizations all agree that big trouble is brewing.(by crude impact)
http://www.youtube.com/watch...
Do Mr. McCain Know that BIG OIL CO. will never sell Americans oil cheap. Americans say No to John McCain and Big Oil Co. Americans have already given big oil land to drill----let them finish. NO VOTES FOR FALSE OIL LIES. AMERICA SAY NO TO MCCAIN. I WAS A FOOL TO VOTE FOR BUSH. EACH DAY JOHN MCCAIN LOOSE MY VOTE. Let America take ownership in American land and Americans Oil. PUT A STOP TO BIG OIL COMPANIES. Put a stop to Republicans McCAIN/BUSH.
I WAS A REPUBLICAN VOTER AND NOW I AM A INDEPENDENT VOTER.
Republican John McCain--Bush continue to have a bad economy and dependence on foreign oil.

1. America need to improve it's ability to compete.
2. America need to CHANGE and restructure.
3. America need to adopt new practices.
John McCain greatest asset is---John McCain.
--John McCain is known as--- ONE MAN WITH POOR JUDGMENT AND EXPERIENCE----
Obama greatest asset is to UNITE PEOPLE TO PRODUCE CHANGE.
--Obama is known as---ONE MAN WHO UNITE PEOPLE TO BUILD STRENGTH WITH THE USE OF MANY EXPERIENCES-- AND BETTER AMERICANS ECONOMY.
JOHN McCAIN IS NOT A UNITER.
McCAIN ONE MAN WITH POOR JUDGMENT AND EXPERIENCE?

I'd be GLAD to compare flip flops with you. But since Obama was not against drilling in the first place, it doesn't make sense. He doesn't think it will solve ALL of our energy concerns and he'd also like to see renewable sources for energy.

He'd be right.

The usual sad diatribe--loud with no substance. Thank you for representing your party so "intelligently."

Obama was quoted as saying that lifting the ban on off shore drilling would not help us in our current energy crisis.
Now he is saying he might support it.
You don't think that is a change in his standing on the issue?

Communism baby! Is a realy nasty thing for all. In Russia they started from the reach, then middle class, then put all who dissagry in prison or labor camps,then who was disagree again-shot them dead.My grandpa was a blacksmith, prodused vagons and horse staff, hold flour mill. They came and took away everything.Say something, receive a bullet. In recent times ;60-80 shoved all people in to gettos,made them drink "Russkaya Vodka", made from then chronic alchoholics. On Obama's watch blacks and whites all will suffer greatly. Pitifull those who don't want to listen the voise of reason and corrupted themselves with obamargasm.

It won't help us in our CURRENT energy crisis. It'll help 10 years from now. I am sure he supports for 10 YEARS from now.

The "Hoods and Thieves of Liberalism"

MAKE THE HIJACKED CORRUPT DNC SUPER (Sucker) DELEGATES RESPECT OUR VOTES... HILLARY 08!!

OBAMA WAS "SELECTED NOT ELECTED"

COUNT THE VOTE that "WILL NOT VOTE" OBAMA: The National Republican Party, Naders Raiders, Cynthia McKinney's Klan, Hillary Women who Hate Sexism, Rural Gun and Faith who Despise Obama, Appalachian Folk who "SMELL A SOCIALIST," Working Class People who have Contempt for Obama, Jews who Don't Trust Obama, Bible Belt who like Jesus, The Puertorican, Mexican, Hispanic, Cuban and Latino, Brazillian's, Vietnamese, and Reagan Democrat Voters who favor a Traditional Republican Family Values Agenda.

...AND...

WE see the "Barack insane Obama" bigots think they don't need the welfare Hillbillies, Hick's, Rednecks, Crackers, Briars, and the NASCAR Crowd for votes and Now poor white Trailer Trash People, Muslim Women that must sit in the back of the bus and Rev. Manning and Jesse Jackson's Klan, and the Military vote... LMFAO!!!

...AND NOW... Native and Black Reparations and more Racial Divide...

Obama's "Hope and Polarizing Change"... Larry Sinclair, Rev. Manning, Jesse Jackson, Uncle wRight, the Clintons, disrespected Muslim and Hillary women, snubbed soldiers, Christian voters, and millions of White Road Kill voters. Two States of disenfranchised Florida and Michigan votes and 13 million Ostracized registered Democrat Appalachian voters the Obama Bigots call Racists and Common Sense Democrat voters who can't believe, thrown under Obama's skanky bus that... "WILL VOTE HILLARY 08"...

The Polls of Hope are never Honest or wRight... Polls of Hope ARE for the "Hopelessly Obama enslaved"...

The "Terrorism and of Poison Liberalism"
