|
|
White House hopeful Barack Obama's economic platform set off a three-way fight Wednesday as aides to Republican John McCain and Democrat Hillary Clinton accused Obama of stealing Clinton's ideas.
Obama fired back that McCain lacks economic know-how.
"Obama's plan today is the most shameless piece of potential plagiarism that I have ever seen," McCain economic advisor Kevin Hassett said. The Clinton campaign helpfully e-mailed his comments to reporters.
"He basically took Clinton's words and Clinton's policies and called them his own," Hassett said. "If I were a professor I'd give him an F and try to get him kicked out of school for something this terrible ... I remember Mrs. Clinton saying shared prosperity and I remember the bill that she introduced in August for infrastructure. The fact is these are things Obama has taken as his own without crediting the source of the ideas which was Mrs. Clinton."
Clinton herself said, "A plan that fails to provide universal health care, fails to address the housing crisis, and fails to immediately start creating good paying jobs in America again will not turn the economy around and provide the real relief that our people need. We need real results not more rhetoric."
The New York senator's campaign said she proposed a national infrastructure bank in August and that Obama's energy plan is a rehash of hers.

Obama went on the 'change' platform .. and everyone else started spouting the word as if they'd thought of it, so they are all the same.
NB. I have no political affiliations, they all suck.
I want change! ... from my $100 when I go to the gas station.

If you try and write to the Obama campaign and ask any kind of policy question this is what you get....notice they never answer my question. Odd since they ASK if you have a QUESTION ! Then when you do they won't answer it. I don't think they even try to read the questions people may have...so much for his policies.
Thank you for contacting Obama for America. The volume of messages
we’re receiving has gone up since Barack’s victory in Iowa. While we
cannot respond individually to over a thousand messages per day, the
level of interest and thoughtfulness of the comments reflected in these
communications are very gratifying. Your thoughts on our campaign and
America's future are greatly appreciated.
Individual citizens like you are the foundation of this campaign.
Since his February 10 announcement speech in Springfield, Illinois,
Barack has spoken consistently of working together to reclaim the meaning of citizenship, restore our sense of common purpose and rally the power of millions of voices to demand long overdue change. We hope you will explore our website, www.BarackObama.com, to view that speech in its entirety and learn more about Barack, his record and his plans.
If you’re writing because you want change, we need you to help us
fight for it. Please sign up here to volunteer:

f you plan to visit the United States please make note of the following - and pass it along to friends, family, work colleagues - and anyone you know who is thinking of visiting the U.S.
According to today’s news reports, more than fifty percent of travellers to the USA are unaware of the new visa rules which came into effect today, January 12 2009. Under the US Visa Waiver program visitors to the US are now required to register online at least 72 hours prior to the date of travel. Those who anticipate problems obtaining a visa for the USA (a criminal record, for example) should register well ahead of the travel date in case they are required to attend the embassy for an interview.

"So if you're gonna wear them, or if you're going to go straight barefooted, I think the key is you really have got to slowly work your way into this," Myer said.
Fans of the shoes say you calves will feel tight and hurt at first, and everyone recommends gradually easing into them.
They are designed to create the sense of running while barefoot, but protect the feet from hazards like broken glass and sharp rocks.
"What it does is it stretches out your feet, your toes. People have a hard time getting in them at first because when we wear shoes, our feet are all scrunched together," Hamlin Jones, a running coach, said.
The line of shoes, which are for running hiking and other fitness activities, is called Five Fingers, because the toes are separated. nba jerseys

"What they do is they strengthen your ankles, help with balance and stability," Jones said.
Supporters of the shoes say it is not new or outrageous. Running shoes are a fairly recent technology, and for most of human history, people ran in minimal shoes if any at all.
Daniel Howell, author of "The Barefoot Book," believes we were born to run, but without shoes.
"Because a shoe is a cast, and you don't get to flex and twist and grasp. Your feet can't do that inside a shoe the way it can when you are barefoot," he said.
Dr. Kevin Myer, a podiatrist, says medical experts are debating the benefits and drawbacks of barefoot running, but he would rather have his patients wearing the Five Finger shoes than none at all.
