Looks like Obama fancies children just as much as Jesse Griffin, perhaps. Geez, from the likes of Jesse Griffin, to an innocent child. Liberals will use anyone any time they can for political gain. How pathetic.
I have to give Rush Limbaugh credit for always pointing out how, with liberals, it's always ideology and politics first, everything and everyone else is last, or out of the life raft if there isn't room.
They'd sell their mothers for a vote, or a talking point. Griffin outed himself to give them what they thought was a score with the kindergarten meme. He never stopped to think, nor did any of his handlers bother to explain about the ramifications of his outing himself as he did.
I suspect there's a bus warming up in Anchorage right now and it's going to drive right over our new found, foul-mouthed little friend. Jesse of Dumb by way of Anchorage came. He blazed like a comet in the anti-Palin bloggerly sky, before crashing and burning in his stupidity and pathetic big lie.
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy!
Buh bye, Jesse, buh bye!


Ohbaaaahmduh

crashing and burning? his Blog seems to be thriving. I don't see him backing off one iota. You have promised a lot Dan but have yet to deliver anything. Maybe it is you that is worried about crashing and burning?
Posted by: Proud Liberal | Wednesday, August 12, 2009 at 11:53 AM
Dan... do you have that source where you said Griffin named the school as his employer? What is your source for that information? When did he list the school as his employer? Recently? 20 years ago? Any idea at all?
Posted by: Proud Liberal | Wednesday, August 12, 2009 at 11:54 AM
Indeed Obama is not as smart as Palin. He didn't use his 'own' children as a political shield and for political gains.
Posted by: Cape Conserva Cobra | Wednesday, August 12, 2009 at 11:57 AM
hey even Republican Senator Murkowski is calling Sarah Palin a liar. Better check her finances Dan, you might find that she is being secretly supported by "well known progressives" as well. One never knows?

Dan Riehl should get a Pulitzer for political blogging. In the most pathetic category if there is one. Award or no reward, I am sure he is making the conservatives proud--of the Palin variety, not the Buckley.

@Ted
The guy really believes that? comparing Dan's lousy biased job with the journalistic discipline of Bob and Carl. Wow.
Anyway, using similar logic I suppose Sarah Palin--by "quitting" her elected job--is doing the work the elected politicians should be doing. Apparently, there just isn't any Ronald Reagan or JFK? LOL.

Looks like you have a stalker, Mr. Riehl.
Nothing like being stalked by a "Proud Liberal" who runs around frothing at the lips over a "Masturbating amateur photographer" who just loves to teach "things" to kindergarten children.
Nothing says liberal like putting pedophiles in touch with their targets.

Sir, are you not guilty too of what you are accusing of? "Proud Liberal" asked you a very decent and pertinent question about your blog entry. You haven't not just addressed it forthright nor have you offered any explanation, but dismissed all "criticism" by bashing liberals, which of course is popular with your larger readership.
You are doing hard investigative reporting, and I certainly appreciate that. One reader compared your work with that of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein's. That is a great tribute for your noble work, something any serious reporter would like to at least try to live up to. Please do remember that Woodward and Bernstein's work was not driven by ideology.

this guy was "trig truther"...
what would your honest rxn be to a conservative blog site that was challenging obama's paternity to his children? how much sympathy if the conservative blog site went on to 'report' martial difficulties the obama's, in the hopes that media would pick up on it, just to cause them pain?

Using the child questioner at the NH town hall meeting is another example of "Obama do as I say but not as I do". How very different from the official White House pushback for mentioning Obama's own children in on a school-lunch campaign poster.

no, you (the commenters on here) have only called Obama a racist, a fascist, a socialist, un-American, a sociopath and someone that "pals around with terrorists" and who is not a legitimate president because he was born in Kenya. But other than that you have been quite fair to our Commander in Chief.

Found in a thread in which wingers are expressing their hurt feelings over a child asking the president a question that (you guessed it) hurt their feelings. Comedy gold yet again.
Someone get an intrepid investigatory journalist on the case to raise scurrilous innuendo. We must know the makeup of this child's counter tops! Tip to Obama: Ur doing it wrong; when using children as props make sure they are YOUR OWN children! That way no one can criticize you for anything!

Sorry, pal. No such event occurred.
Loud Drivel and the other liberal trolls (look in a mirror to see another one) hurl insults and make a noisy scene erecting straw men and feebly trying to knock them down.
There are no facts in statements from liberals. There are no objective inquiries. Just shrill yammering to try to "win"

"Sarah and Todd are fighting all the time," Mercede Johnston — sister of Levi Johnston, ex-boyfriend of Sarah's eldest daughter, Bristol — tells Star in an exclusive interview.
wow...all larry sinclair had to do was get the sister of michelle obama's ex-boyfriend to confirm that obama loves swallowing "smoked sausages", pay them, and we'd have solid proof.
the good part? obama has already admitted to use cocaine, so there would be 'supporting evidence'.
would tell you to "suck on that", but by your burden of proof, obama was the one who has been 'sucking'.
to repeat: look in the mirror.

I find their desperation incredibly funny and slightly cute, child-like. They should still be dancing in the streets "we won, we won" waiting for free cars, housing and fuel.
