Attacks

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: The right-wing attack machine is going to throw everything they can at any Democratic candidate. Even if they have to make shit up. Today's target: Barack Obama, who apparently owned some stock and lost some money on it. Scandalous, right?http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070307/ap_on_el_pr/obama_investments

"Obama owned stock in two companies which he did nothing to help — an
investment that lost him $13,000," Burton said in a statement Wednesday. "It's
apparent that his dealings were completely above board and his decisions were
proactively made in the interest of avoiding the potential for conflict."

This is only the beginning.

Added:

In one eight day stretch in 1988, Obama was cited seven times for parking violations and was fined $45. Thirteen of the 17 violations occurred within one month in 1988.

The guy got PARKING TICKETS!
