Do you think you could desist from taking a dump on this board every five seconds?

Man, I'm trying too, but it's like they shuffled the medication cards at Bellvue. This is a kind of echo chamber, right? Your only looking for affirmation, not reasoning or inquest, and facts are trifling things that make you feel insecure about your beliefs. I'm sorry you feel that way.
aww...
C'mon Klytus, cut dodo some slack. I forwarded my hubby the bit about supposing I must be very young.
It was the sort of thrill that getting carded can give you after a certain age, no?

Since your progressive and more intelligent than me (I?), you already knew I was speaking to your level of naivete, not your looks. Is it a compliment in the reality based community to be uninformed or deficient in wisdom? If not, I'm sorry my remark wasn't understood by you. You remind me of the rumors I hear about a certain Vice Presidential candidate. She supposedly has a hard time keeping up also
There you go Lotus, twisting those facts again, gosh darn it! Wink, wink.
LOTUS FEET has outlined this issue very accurately. Obama's negative feelings toward the Jewish population are obvious. The Jewish voters need to see what Obama actually is, not what they want him to be.
This morning Sarah Palin spoke to a huge audience in Clearwater, Florida. They loved her. She is authentic and not the least bit offensive. It's Obama who should put the fear of God in Jewish voters.
The board of a nonprofit organization on which Sen. Barack Obama served as a paid director alongside a confessed domestic terrorist granted funding to a controversial Arab group that mourns the establishment of Israel as a "catastrophe" and supports intense immigration reform providing drivers licenses and education to illegal aliens.
The co-founder of the Arab group in question, Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi, also has held a fundraiser for Obama. Khalidi is a harsh critic of Israel, has made statements supportive of Palestinian terror and reportedly has worked on behalf of the Palestine Liberation Organization while it was involved in anti-Western terrorism and was labeled by the State Department as a terror group.
In 2001, the Woods Fund, a Chicago-based nonprofit that describes itself as a group helping the disadvantaged, provided a $40,000 grant to the Arab American Action Network, or AAAN, for which Khalidi's wife, Mona, serves as president. The Fund provided a second grant to the AAAN for $35,000 in 2002.
Obama was a director of the Woods Fund board from 1999 to Dec. 11, 2002, according to the Fund's website. According to tax filings, Obama received compensation of $6,000 per year for his service in 1999 and 2000.
Obama served on the Wood's Fund board alongside William C. Ayers, a member of the Weathermen terrorist group which sought to overthrow of the U.S. government and took responsibility for bombing the U.S. Capitol in 1971.
Ayers, who still serves on the Woods Fund board, contributed $200 to Obama's senatorial campaign fund and has served on panels with Obama at numerous public speaking engagements. Ayers admitted to involvement in the bombings of U.S. governmental buildings in the 1970s.
" And, why focus on "ACORN" and other far left organizations in Chicago which organized and mobilized "actions" against many south side Jews who were singled out as "slum lords" because they owned rental properties, and whose homes they picketed when they did not want to sell or give away their property for youth centers and other radical pet projects?"
I just love this quote. Seriously, its the fifth time I've read something bad about ACORN today. If I were to beleive the trolls, ACORN is singlehandidly responsible (under the tutelage of Obama, of course) for 1) creating a pogrom in South Side Chicago against the Jews 2) the mortgate crisis 3) and the wall street meltdown,
The first time I heard of ACORN was on Treasure Island when I spent a week training for the Clinton's Summer of Service Program. I don't remember a chapter in Oakland, but I wasn't a homebuyer at the time.
Anyhoo, I haven't heard of it since (sadly that week and and the summer in EBCC pretty much ended my foray in the nonprofit community service world.) I don't think most people have even heard of this organization much less know anything about its history or its aims. But earlier today I read they were leftist radicals who used financial blackmail to force banks to give loans to poor people.
And now the organization is a republican talking point. Sad, really.
and all the other non-Jews telling those foolish "Chosen People" what to believe, wow, imagine how different the world would be if you brave, truthful souls had been there to save them in Eastern Europe.
If anyone of you right-wing fundie zealots can find a single documented anti-semitic actby Obama, please produce your proof. None of this guilt-by-association crap that anyone can come up with by playing 6 degrees of separation. Most minorities know all about demagoguery and whispering campaigns and guilt-by-association since we have experienced it from the other end -- with people like you promulgating it.
Your biases are showing.
It's nice to see the McCain/GOP operatives here doing what they do best -- trying to sow the seeds of fear, hate and division. But it's such a pre-Sept. 15 mentality don't you think? You know, a time when elections could be won on meaningless bullshit and not actual issues, such as an economic meltdown? A time when incompetent boobs who could do nothing more than spout us-against-them cliches still be taken seriously?
We've moved on from that, and if the growing gap in the polls are any indication (my god, North Carolina and Missouri are in play??) that move is only picking up speed.
But spew on, righteous culture warriors. Fear, hate and division are all you have to offer right now, and you can use only the tools you have at your disposal. We understand.
...Their dislike for Evangelicals or their distaste for a young black man with a Muslim name? Because we all know all the candidates have already sworn blood oaths and their first child should anyone try anything with Israel.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
The accountability imposed by another country for the CIA's kidnapping and torture reveals much about our own.
Fox News' morning show plays to type, talking about whether Muslims in the Army should face "special debriefings"

Once seen as a lunatic fringe, reactionary anti-women groups are courting respectability
