I can't find any major law or reform that Obama has authored. I've researched and simply can't find any - please enlighten me.

You say he "pushed" for things that were shot down - those would be legislative failures.

And as far as there being a majority of Republicans, here is some breaking news for you... Harry Reid is a Democrat and he is the Senate Majority Leader. He has been for nearly half of Obama's single term in the Senate.

So tell me again, why hasn't Obama authored a major law or reform since he's been in office?

Do some research — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 18:53:57 -0000

Kirk Watson wasnt informed on any of Obamas accomplishments because he didnt do his research. Dont attack Obama for something a supporter did or in this case did not say. If you are curious do research. While Obama was in senate for 3 years he pushed to help the armed services by ending the war iraq and getting the gi's better health care when they came home. Many of there where shot down because it was a majority of republicans.

I cited them, because the books were referenced in Governor Palin's speech - I didn't say they were new.

I've seen this ... about 2 or 3 months ago. I 'think' there's plenty more on my blog.

Hi Shawn,

They sure are getting faster at making these videos unavailable. No sooner than you put them up, they take them down.

She hit a home run! Obama delivers an impressive speech and so does Palin -- in fact, I would argue that her's was more substantive and real than his. If I were Biden i would be more than a little bit concerned about my upcoming debate with her.

So many smart, stinging lines in there.

It was funny on the Fox News coverage - they had to prompt Howard Wolfson to criticize the speech, because he was lavishing praise on it.

I find it unusual that a lot of coverage points out that a speechwriter wrote it for her.

I don't recall ever hearing that clarification for Obama.

Thanks Lavelle -

I did see that yesterday - the guy from US was ridiculous. They had time to print all sorts of insinuations and smears, but didn't manage to find time to include the details.

CNN summed up the media’s total lack of any substantial response after Palin's speech.

- “Grab that person and let’s get their response to the speech.”
- “Hold on, they’re singing the national anthem. Let’s stand and listen for a moment.”
- “Wait, can we listen to this for a minute? This is the kind of country music that Americans rarely get to hear in a setting like this.”
- “We’re going to take a commercial break and be right back with our response.”

Come on CNN it took you 15 minutes, literally 15 minutes after Palin's speech, to pick your jaws up off the floor and you still couldn’t muster up a thought-provoking response or analysis.

One of my favorite lines from Palin, "But listening to him speak, it’s easy to forget that this is a man who has authored two memoirs but not a single major law or reform - not even in the state senate."

Overall this was an incredible speech. I'm just a little disappointed cause I thought speaker Christy Swanson was actually going to be vampire slayer, Kristy Swanson - http://www.kristyswansononline.com/ :(

To jrysk,

You must have just read the lastest issue of Us magazine. You're one sick puppy dog!

There seems to be more & more of your type trying to express your intelect. It's about time the dog catcher went back to work!

Wow. You're scum. The fact is that Todd Palin is the father of baby mutant Trig and the mother is his own daughter, Bristol. Bristol is also carrying Todd's child again. I love trash mutants. You are one of them.

The Dems now are whining that McCain didn't vett Palin even though he stated he did.

Give them some cheese with that wine!

Rick Wiley — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 18:19:51 -0000

This pattern of the videos no longer available has been going on for awhile. I also noticed that this one was McCain's official channel.

I think this an issue of censorship right before our eyes. Maybe you can raise the questions some more about this issue.

I don't follow - it's now considered vetting to make up stories?

Hi Rick -

That is really crazy if they took this one down - it's part of the official John McCain channel.

it is interesting how so many of the pro-Republican and those critical of Obama tend to disappear.

Shawn,

I'm starting to think you must of pissed someone off at YouTube!

Why is it that alot of videos lately are no longer available when they favor McCain? Is YouTube part of the NBC family? Now Google would'nt do that would they?

It's interesting that the Dems really think they're going to bully her off the ticket. I think they're about to find out why they call her a barracuda in Alaska. The lady can hold her own.

Hey Rick -

It's interesting to see how much venom they have for Governor Palin.

They can't even bring themselves to refer to her as a Governor.

Maybe they're confused to see somebody who loves God and guns, but isn't bitter.

I think the Dems are starting to get a little worried! What do you think?

They rewrote and retitled the article since I excerpted and linked to it.

The two paragraphs above that are sectioned off were copied directly from the text of the previous iteration.

And it did have a different title when I read it. :-)
