Why is it OK for Obama's people to smear his opponent's families, but Obama's wife is off limits?

Question

Do you remember Obama saying a few weeks ago, "Lay off my wife."

But it was OK to attack Hillary's daughter. And now smear Palin's teenage daughter. I even read someone calling her baby "a r****d."

Answer 1

You have the advanced group of the Obama attack dogs. these are

the paid level one pukes in here, that offer no email to respond to.

These dolts are paid to come in here, drop c**p on the board and

hope it sticks. Obama is responsible for this directly, for he does

nothing to denounce it.  So when you see some stumbling puke

purge out a rant its got Obama written all over it. WIth the RIng

Master Goerge Soros attached also.

Answer 2

We have been attacking Michelle quite hard with pure smears, no facts.

Unfortunately for us Palin's unmarried, 5 months pregnant daughter is FACT.

She needs to quit the race to "spend more time with her family at this difficult time.".

Answer 3

Its not okay for anyone to attack family, unless they are political figures.  Michelle Obama was attacked by the media and Republicans during the primaries for her "proud to be American" comment.  I don't recall any Obama people going after Chelsea.  The reports of Palin's daughter are just coming in now, and I don't think Obama has issued a statement one way or the other on it.

Who is this "someone"? I hear lots of people say stupid stuff.  It doesn't mean its tied to the candidate.

Answer 4

Who cares what O Bamba utters. His wife fits him pretty well, ugly, bitter, racist and ungrateful.

Answer 5

Hi there

Back in 2004 at the Democratic convention, Obama said:

That is the true genius of America, a faith in the simple dreams of its people, the insistence on small miracles. That we can say what we think, write what we think, without hearing a sudden knock on the door. That we can have an idea and start our own business without paying a bribe or hiring somebody's son. That we can participate in the political process without fear of retribution, and that our votes will be counted -- or at least, most of the time.

He sounds like a very down to earth guy.  I feel that he needs a chance.  I know that it's an entire country....but can he do any worse?

Answer 6

Their double standard comes in handy for them, no?

Answer 7

It's the losers on both sides throwing mud when they have no substance.

Hillary was fair game when Bill was in office because she was making public policy.  But not Michelle Obama.  She should be off limits, as should have Chelsea or any other member of the presidents family.  Chelsea was a legit target during the campaign only to the degree one challenged her mother's credentials.

Answer 8

Off limits my butt.

They've been smearing Obama's wife up and down the wazoo.

This time, the Palin allegations are true.  Not smears.

Answer 9

I'm sure Michelle has paid a few visits to the Planned Parenthood Office in the past.

Answer 10

It is wrong to smear anyone. However, the game of politics brings out the best and,unfortunately, the worst in us. Rush Limbaugh referred to Chelsea Clinton as a "hood ornament". Go figure figure.

Answer 11

You have the Palin campaign to thank for that.  They outed Sarah's daughter to the national press.  Real nice of Sarah to throw her daughter under the bus like that, for political expediency.

What Sarah should have said to McCain, No, I can't be your VP nominee.  There's something going on in my family that won't help your campaign and I want to protect my child from the national spotlight right now.  But she didn't.

Maybe she's not the family-values candidate McCain was hoping for after all.

Answer 12

All the Obama Zombies,please show the links that PROVE that Palins daughter is pregnant.Please don't include the family picture from 2006,I know biology was a class you slept through,but a human cannot carry a baby for 2 years.

The reason all the Zombies attack Plains family is the fact that they don't have anything else,She has a good reputation and is well liked by constituency.

Now we all know that Obama is a pandering politician , willing to say anything to get elected.Look  at his list of freebies he has promised,too bad the financing doesn't add up.

Answer 13

So true

Answer 14

Source for the "r****d" please

Answer 15

Obama is a hypocrite.

Answer 16

Obama and many of his supporters are rather dishonest.

Obama and his supporters criticize other people for behavior that they are guilty of themselves.

For example Obama is part of the corrupt Chicago Political machine.

The Chicago Political machine is one of the most corrupt organizations in the United States. Yet Obama accuses other people of being corrupt even though the corruption of the Chicago Political machine is legendary and Obama is squarely in the middle of that machine.
