Obama&#039;s commitments were nuanced. He left himself some bargaining room. Hmmm that seems to make good political sense - good political &quot;strategery&quot;. A person might even extrapolate from that an ability to lead both domestically and internationally with forethought and intelligence rather than with knee jerk, emotional responses. McCain&#039;s calculation was to box-in financially a political juggernaut in a Democratic cycle. McCain was out foxed and that shows Obama to be much more politically savvy than the Republicans expected. Interesting.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Let&#039;s see.  Obama&#039;s promise was conditional on his opponent accepting the same restrictions.  McCain accepted public financing, which he then used to secure a loan, and then promptly attempted to &lt;b&gt;withdraw&lt;/b&gt; from public financing.  I say &quot;attempted&quot; because the FEC chairman -- a Republican, by the way -- has warned McCain that he may not withdraw without FEC permission.  (My source?  That pinko rag &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2008/feb/26/mccains-fec-engagement/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;The Washington Times&lt;/a&gt;.)  No such FEC vote has occurred, yet McCain has merrily continued to spend in excess of the public finance-related limits.

Quite the peculiar sense of outrage you have there....]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[troglaman, 

there are specific transcripts of numerous Obama declarations re: his pledge to use only public financing if Republican nominee does so;  there are examples of speeches in which he proudly cites his &quot;commitment&quot; to campaign finance reform&quot; which is why he will use the public funding option, etc.

Google is a wonderful tool; very easy to use.  Enter keyword(s) &#038; click.  Voila!  

Have at it and learn the facts before you throw your &quot;bomb&#039;s&quot; at your favorite&#039;s (Obama)  rival (McCain).  
Seeking information and learning are good things.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Or maybe he didn&#039;t have to do it, which he didn&#039;t.  Can any of you reference an Obama promise to stick to federal funds?  Anyone?

The Right&#039;s inability to raise grassroots election funds is not Obama&#039;s problem.  It&#039;s your problem.  Its a big one.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[His website is run by an open Communist from Harvard named Felsen.  This kid makes absolutely no attempt to hide his Marxist identity.

Obonga&#039;s pap was grist for his own mill.  There is no hope for people who willingly swill lies from the slop bucket.

One of the very important reasons why I left the Left back in 1987 is that I finally dealt with all the lies piled up by the Communists.  For years I thought that perhaps the truth was somewhere between what they claimed about historical events and their socialist experiments, and what conservatives and dissidents over here were telling us.  But, then I found out that the Communists were lying beyond what I believed possible.  And I recalled the ethics of expediency I witnessed among many Leftists, activists and intellectuals.  Lying is no big deal to them.

And that is one of the many commonalities that exist between Islam and Socialism.  Taqiyya - Lying.  Expedient ethics.  Ruthless suppression of the truth.

The more I think about him taking the oath of office in January of 2009 the more I feel like retching.]]></description>
