  • @fbair1

    Please name Obama's "pals" and the specific crimes they have committed and what Obama's relationship is.

    Your response can be verified on Snopes.com.

  • @Brandon

    You want to read about McCain? Rolling Stone's article "The Make Believe Maverick" is devastating.

    I didn't know most of these things, McCain had me pretty well fooled up until around 2004.

    What we are seeing now is closer to the real deal, and it's not so hot.

  • Palin's descent to slinging scum, in case you missed it

    Barack Obama served on the board of a non-profit with Bill Ayers, who decades ago was a member of the Weather Underground. and is now "DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR IN THE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS"

    Palin's important adviser whom she sleeps with and is MARRIED TO WAS A MEMBER OF THE AIP FOR 10 YEARS. THE FOUNDER OF PALIN'S Alaska Inependence Party SAID--- "The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government. And I won't be buried under their damn flag. I'll be buried in Dawson. And when Alaska is an independent nation they can bring my bones home."

  • The Election will be won or lost in about four weeks, my frems.

    So, save your victory laps, please.

    Obamabots may have a massive hangover November 5, and all the egg whites and Advil in the world won't help the staggering pain: "What happened?"

    What happened?

    Well maybe people woke up, maybe a lot of people don't like pollsters.

    We may get a president who consorts with unrepentant ex terrorists, who bombed buildings and killed people.

    Or we may get the one Republican who was one of the Keating five, and who, since then, has done everything he can to clean up the pork in Washington.

    We may get a president who, yes, for 20 years, (yep twenty, two long decades, Zoltan) sat through the poisonous sermons of a hate monger who blamed AIDS on Jewish Doctors and who sided with the people who rocket Israeli civilians. Do not forget Barry 0's close friendship with Rashied Khalidi, too.

    Or, we could get a president whose best friend in the Senate is a Jew, and who means it when he says he'll support Israel.

    We may get a president who never saw a war he wasn't willing to loose or a defense appropriation he wasn't willing to cut. (He really was not in favor of going after Taliban in Afghanistan originally, right? It's just an expedient thing, now, right? This here Obama is really gonna make all of them nasty terrorists in and near Pakistan go poo poo in their pants, right?)

    Yea, right. They won't be jumping for joy and shooting their Kalashnikovs in the air if he wins, right???

    Or we may get a man of great honor, who doesn't trot out his shy third world adopted daughter at every opportunity, and who never tears up with make believe grief at the mention of his two sons risking their lives in the military for us.

    We may get a president who would go after terrorists in a lawyerly way, and who bloviates about magically converting Ahmedinajob, Kim Jong Il and Putin into friendly little lambs through the magic of his pretty smile.

    Or we could get a leader who actually suffered torture, and truly believes there are better ways to elicit crucial information to protect us, a guy who would whisper f... you, and let these monster momsers know that there will be certain consequences for the death and destruction they spread.

  • Brainless Ditto-head says: "board member of the ACLU"

    OMG! NO, ANYTHING BUT THAT!

    Civil Liberties! Gasp! This is America, take you communist "civil liberties" back to San Francisco Nazi!

    Seriously, Why do these people hate the ACLU so much? I mean really, WTF?

    Form the ACLU web page:

    "The American system of government is founded on two counterbalancing principles: that the majority of the people governs, through democratically elected representatives; and that the power even of a democratic majority must be limited, to ensure individual rights.

    The mission of the ACLU is to preserve all of these protections and guarantees of the Constitution.

    What the heck is more friggen AMERICAN than that? I thought republicans were all about "limiting the governments power" over individuals. Do they have something against the Bill of Rights?

    Maybe they just hate America (they love flags and chants of USA, but hate what it REALLY stands for), with its "civil liberties"

    Seriously, WTF do you people have against the ACLU?

    When I took my oath of enlistment for the army, I swore to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic".....

    Heck, this ACLU sounds like my kind of outfit! I want to join, heck I'm going to go donate to them right now!

    Thanks

  • McCain/Palin's personal attacks on Obama

    Smear tactics were used to good effect by Richard Nixon in all of his campaigns. John McCain can no longer claim to be running "an honorable campaign" as he ramps up the smear machine against Obama. I just hope the electorate sees his "aggressive" new approach for what it is: the act of a desperate man who's afraid he's going to lose the race of his life.

  • Re: Blatant Hypocrisy

    Mack,

    You're too kind to Zoltan Newberry and shouldn't pay so much attention to his rantings. He must be a paranoid mental case and will only make sense to those with a similar problem. They all see a conspirator under every rock. He probably is off his medication.

  • Palin's Nasty Obama quote

    The Republican Party is in total turmoil and disarray, and the McCain Campaign will reve up their lying, mean aspersions and cast them constantly at Obama to distract us from the issues with witch they are so sorely out-of-touch. It is pathetic and will end a once honorable man's career in a most dishonorable fashion. It is really a sad commentary on the Right-Wing desparation in one of the most critical periods of economic meltdown that our nation has ever experienced! It is playing itself out like a Greek tragedy of historic purportions!

  • And its about time someone brought this up!! Hurray for Sarah!

    Obama dismisses his association with radical, unrepentant terrorist William Ayers lightly, saying he was 8 when Ayers bombed the Pentagon! Yet Obama surely found something worth building a relationship with Ayers over, otherwise he wouldn't have delivered hundreds of thousands of dollars to his CAC educational foundation; I guess this foundation is an example of the reformed Ayers, but it is a leftist foundation that inculcates the poor recipients with the anti-American evils of Ayer's dark mind; it also isn't something Ayers has personally contributed his own money towards! I mean the guy has to have a job, so why not do something at the expense of taxpayers and blind sheep donators, so you can spread the ugliness of your soul legally, instead of blowing federal buildings up? To willingly associate with and support someone who is so obviously and blatantly anti-American, when you are running for the presidency, is a pretty ugly scar to have on your history; to ignore it is to just plain absurd. Perhaps it doesn't say everything about what Obama is, but it certainly says a lot about what he has been, just as the Rev. Wright deal did. Obama's handlers will also dismiss this as being negative tactics that have nothing to do with Obama's looking forward vision -- which is just a lot of meaningless blather, since that is precisely what they are paid to do! Just imagine if those who are paid to say things that promote him, said yes, they thought he should be taken to task for his ugly relationships of the past? There's not really a direction you can look for any tangible proof of Obama's positive output in this election; his rhetoric is shallow, though lofty; his history is a lesson in how to rise in politics, and how to do so with associating with unsavory people. Ayers and Wright have to mean something.
