Filed under: Scandals, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Samantha Power

samantha_p1.jpgAt least five members of Congress are saying that Samantha Power, Sen. Barack Obama’s chief foreign policy adviser, should be fired. Power made remarks yesterday calling Sen. Hillary Clinton a “monster.” Power has since apologized, but Obama himself has said in the past that such “slime politics” should not be tolerated.

“Personal attacks are not the way to convince voters that you’re capable of being president of the United States,” New York Rep. Nita Lowey, said in a conference call on Monday morning. “We’re calling on Senator Obama to make it very clear that Samantha Power should not be part of this campaign.”

“It’s really a very important test for Obama,” Lowey added, saying that whether Obama fires Power is a real “test of character.”

Rep. Gregory Meeks and several other top politicos, some who support Clinton, have repeated the call for Power’s firing.

    ken starr is hated in the democratic party and is a fair criticism of Obama’s camp, going after Hillary for nothing, in the end — meanwhile, you have Obama’s top advisers unraveling, calling the former First Lady names, like a child

    Power should herself resign. This is the third time this week alone that an Obama adviser has taken away from Obama’s message.

    Is comparing someone’s actions to Kenneth Starr’s similar to calling someone a monster?

    WAKE UP! It’s becoming an anti-Obama PLANET!

    ObamaNation PSYCHOS calling up Hillary pledged black delegates and making DEATH THREATS against them if they don’t switch to Obama? Now this insane Power chick mouthing off what EVERY rank and file ObamaNation psycho believes…

    IT’S OVER. Even Obama knows it. The entire world has his number, and it’s rotten to the core. Super-delegates will go overwhelmingly to Hillary, and so will Florida.

    Quit wasting your time! And Obama: Quit wasting other people’s money! Cut a deal for Veep and resign while you still can.

    Or slink off to has-been ville. Your call. But time is running out. Your chances at any future run are shaping up as slim as Nader’s, and for exactly the same reasons; arrogance, stubborness, and Quixotic suicidal stupidity.

    No, but the Obama llamas can’t understand that. They’re too inexperienced.

    David Shuster was suspended, and so should Power be, at least. That was just stupid of Ms. Power. She made Ohio look bad, too, calling its voters stupid. It hurts the Dem Party.

    Cute puppy,
    If you call him that every black person will hate you, every white person will hate you, the KKK will hate you, David Duke will hate you, the WHOLE WORLD will hate you; is it worth that much hate to you to call him that? Think about it. Oh and by the way, then you will make all of them hate Hillary too. It ain’t worth it.

    I would have to agree, I think Senator Obama has become very arrogant. He’s very dismissive and pompous of late. Even Obama surrogates speaking on his behalf on TV are arrogant acting, at time even rude. I cannot imagine an administration with that kind of attitude. Not to mention, Michelle Obama racist self. The only way I would vote for Obama, if he locked Michelle Obama in the basement for four years.
