Obama forgoes public campaign financing,?

Robin Marchione: He plans on holding up liquors stores across the Midwest

Rosalyn Olivera: Thankfully, rather than taxpayer funds which individuals are forced to finance, Obama will leave it to the CHOICE of individuals if they feel inclined to contribute

Erin Arron: DECEPTION you can believe in!This liar will soon be destroyed in the polls!

Jene Kostyla: public finance:DefinitionCollection of taxes from those who benefit from the provision of public goods by the government, and the use of those tax funds toward production and distribution of the public goods.Sounds like big business to medemocrats '08...Show more

Tana Dumoulin: OBAMA IS A ******* LYING IDIOT, I AM NOW AGAINST OBAMA SO MUCH. HE WROTE ON PAPER PROMISING WITH HIS SIGNATURE TO HAVE A GENERAL ELECTION BETWEEN MCCAIN, WITH PUBLIC FUNDING!THIS SHOWS YOU CANNOT TRUST HIM! HE IS OLD POLITICS! HE KNOWS HE CAN GET MORE PEOPLE TO DONATE MONEY THAN MCCAIN AND HE WILL BE ALLOWED TO SPEND IT ALL! ...WHAT A ******* CHEATER. YOU SAY ONE THING AND WHEN THE TIME COMES YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND.AMERICANS SHOULD BE OUTRAGED!...Show more

Carolynn Testani: Public financing set limits on amount campaigns can spend helping to ensure that the presidency is not bought by special interest groups. Obama not only is dishonest but continually is rewriting the rules to accommodate the ultimate goal, buying the White House!

Maryland Gareau: no public financing is us pledging money unwillingly through our tax money.

Rivka Killmer: He's a lying hypocrite with no agenda, just natty suits and well-paid speechwriters.

Eliseo Luma: EVERYTHING about the man is right on the edge. Why is it every time he gets caught in a jam he says "This is not the policy of my campaign" or "I had no idea my pastor of 20 YEARS was a racist". He's a joke. It's time for the main stream media to start asking the hard questions and stop treating him like he is the prince just waiting to be cr! owned king.

Joni Ziak: in a sense yes

Jesusita Dyk! hoff: I would be willing to bet 25 cents that Soros money is finding its way through supposed small donators to obamby.

Olen Penhallurick: I helped him out today. I got a letter asking for campaign donations and I put 2 10 pound weights in a box and taped the postage paid envelope to the top of the box. Raises the postage to $9.23.This should help him spend that big campaign fund he is hoping to acquire.You assertion that he is going to rely on internet donations is totally incorrect. He is using a mass mailing campaign and I plan on using it against that lying, unqualified, delusion, racist ex-crack head Muslim Marxist dirtball....Show more

Bryant Pillitteri: It sure is my friend. Also Obama is receiving millions from international crooks, like George Soros. There is a reason why Soros wants Obama in there and it will spell disaster for all Middle Class Working Americans.

Gennie Shauer: It's actually considered private but I agree with you. It's the ! exact same principle. Under the public campaign financing the money would have came from people who chose to donate to a candidate on there tax forms. Under the current plan, people can go to his website and donate. I really don't see the difference.

Maria Bengston: No, public financing is a government grant that is paid for through tax dollars. If a candidate gets it, then they can't raise any money through small donors. So, instead of getting the tax money, Obama will be getting donations through individuals.

Dorris Homola: You KNOW it's bad when Chris Matthews and MSNBC cry FOUL.Public financing is a DEFINED system that limits the amount you can SPEND - not just where you get the money from.As MSNBC defined it, Obama broke his word.Period.He said he would abide by the system and now that he sees that he has access to virtually inlimited money and McCain doesn't, he doesn't give a sh!t.The campaign decided that they will take a chance on the terrible publici! ty and break the rules.Obama's statement was a bunch of rabba dabba yad! a yada BULLSH!TThe worst is that NONE of his supporters CARE.They want POWER at any cost even if they have to BUY it.That makes him a WHORE....Show more

Melissa Lavallie: Listen to people with a heart! The say is true to this too, when the people come forward to donate voluntarily to him or to his party and it cannot be termed as bad ! However the money doesn't save the man except their sincere blessings which may bring him the success he aims!

Douglass Sarley: SMELLS LIKE A GEORGE SOROS DEAL TO ME

Eva Lichlyter: maybe he is secretly a millionaire , and we have no idea of this
