Did Obama Sighn Paper For No Public Campain Funding ?

Post by Guy Kelley »

Mc Cain has been accusing Obama for some time that he sighed a pledge that he would not take the Public's money to run his campaign !

Obama has been spending bucks at the rate of about 4 to every 1 of MC Cains. Some say that he is buying the election ! He has been raking in 10's of millions of privet and corporate donations to finance his campaign !

If and this is a BIG IF he sighed such a pledge, why cant Mc Cain show the proof that he did and show the potential voters such proof ?

Dose any one here have the straight skinny on this ?

Too me it isn't a deal breaker, but it will give me pause in the voting booth ! As to Obamas TRUE CARICATURE if he has renegaded on his pledge !

Let's see if we can list all the flip flop of McCain? Because at best that is all we are talking. I personally think it was a good move. Why would he limit himself when the republicans have all kinds of organizations to use. He knew going in the republicans had a tough road to hoe, why give them a chance by going the route McCain chose, just like Obama did not do "town hall meeting" and instead went for the debates (as bad as they were) because he knew he would be better in debates. My own personal opinion is he would have kicked Mcsames but in town hall meeting also.

Guy,
At one time a man’s word was all that was needed – I already posted what you are looking for – Obama said and admitted it. If you need something else then go head and vote Obama and live with it – don’t look to others for you can man up!

If you want more proof - FishaHallic is defending it!

If your talking about what Guy wrote, I am not sure what the question is except maybe, did anyone have a sight that showed where Obama said he was not going to except the public money.

If that was the question, I stated at best Obama flip flopped just like McCain has done multiple times. He changed his mind, is that a big deal. If GW changed his mind back in 2003 and decided to run the war the right way we most likely would not be in this mess now.

Associated Press

WASHINGTON -- Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Thursday he'll bypass the federal public financing system in the general election, abandoning an earlier commitment to take the money if his Republican rival did as well.


Tell me the Associated Press got it wrong lefties .

again fish move it to McCain & GWB.

I do belive his question was does any one have proof that Obama reneged on his pledge . Not show me an excuse obama can use to get out of his pledge.


Again your fav. way of dealing with Obama faults, attack McCain.

You are doing a good job.

So if I say yes, then I suppose that would be a reason not to vote for him?

If so, then McSames flip flops should mean your not voting for McSame either then, right?

Again Dave (FishaHallic) we agree – I’m saying Yes, now the question is are you saying Yes? Be careful I’m talking the same way Obama does :idea:

You guys have me so confused but maybe, maybe this is the answer your looking for if you read this article. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/20 ... ccain-did/

The answer is NO he did not sign anything about using public funds and McCain did not even respond to the questionaire so I think we are talking apples and oranges here.

AND THE WINNER IS..............Obama :D

CNNPolitics.com. wrote:The Verdict: Mostly true. Obama did indicate he would accept public financing if his opponent did the same. But he did not sign anything, as McCain states. Obama did not sit down with McCain before Obama's decision on public financing, but members of both campaigns met with each other on the issue.
It is the same way Obama is indicating no Taxes for 95% of the people – did he sign anything? It is about being a man of your word!

So flip flops are about character. Later this evening I will post some McSame flip flops including his most recent about suspending his campaign until they figured out bailout plan which he did not do and not going to debate until bailout plan was adopted which he did not do, and if you can't trust a man on his word in a national emergency then when can you.
