Back to School Time
By UniversityofIowaJR on July 28, 2008 at 2:41 AM in Barack Obama, Democratic National Convention, Education, John McCain
The fall of 2008 will be a season of many ups, downs, and much craziness I predict.
Obviously it doesn’t take much of a psychic to see this. But we will have much to look forward to as Americans. We will have the Democratic Convention, the Republican Convention, and of course protests everywhere. Schools begin again, and expect the college campus battles to be tense and in abundance.
I have mentally prepared myself for school because I can only imagine how much that famous Hope Bong is going to be used, and I have no doubt I will be peer pressured to try the dangerous hard-drug that is Barack Obama. But, just as I have fought off offers for hard-drugs before, I will most definitely do the same again.
Things get very personal on campuses, and especially here. We all know many college kids have been doped up on this hope-ium for sometime now, and many are so addicted, they have come to a point where they will defend barack obama, no matter how wrong or no matter how ridiculous he is.
I just want to let the good people of college-towns and of any town really, get ready. The craziness and insanity of the primaries will only intensify in the fall. Get ready John McCain supporters: For stolen signs, damaged signs, personal attacks, shady tactics, intimidation, lying, and I have heard word of a plot here in Iowa where obama people are planning to put ‘C’ and ‘O’ stickers in front of John McCain’s name (on top of the Mc) so it says Cocaine … which would be ironic because barack obama used to be a coke-head, so … wow.
Get ready democrats that do not vote, write in candidates, or that leave the party. Get ready for attacks as well, get ready for damaged property, annoying phone calls, and door knockers being pushy. It’s not like all of us aren’t ready already, many of us are fully aware of how the obamabots operate because we were personally attacked ourselves.
Most of all, get ready for immaturity. These obamabots have no standards, no morals, and no rationality. They will do ANYTHING to win, and I am not just talking about the bots, but the campaign itself. They will do whatever it takes. But this is his whole campaign anyways: Rude supporters, filled with arrogance, doing anything to win. They are sad ambassadors for our party.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have the electable, strong, smart, normal candidate up there on stage with McCain at the town hall debate she would have accepted, and probably initiated? Sure would.

Pledge Allegiance to the ACLU
By Hans Zeiger
August 18, 2003
The Pledge of Allegiance is doing irreparable harm to the minds and hearts of America’s schoolchildren. So alleges an ACLU lawsuit against the State of Colorado for its new law requiring the daily recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools.
This time, it isn’t just about “One Nation Under God.” Now, the American Civil Liberties Union wants to get rid of the whole pledge. On August 12, the ACLU filed suit in federal district court on behalf of “students and teachers throughout the state” who seem to be offended by the notion of the republic for which the flag stands, unity, liberty, and justice for all.
Mark Silverstein, Legal Director of the ACLU of Colorado, exclaimed, “Public expressions of belief in the ideals of liberty and justice should be voluntary, not coerced. By forcing individuals to pledge allegiance, the Colorado law violates the fundamental freedoms that the American flag is meant to represent.”
In context of public schools, the ACLU’s “coercion” argument is quite silly. When I took a French class in high school, I had to answer my teacher’s questions in French, not Spanish. When each student had to present a book report in English class, there was no option to sit out of the activity or to deliver a rebellious lecture on the evils of reading books.
Yet no one is coerced into saying the Pledge of Allegiance under the current Colorado law. There isn’t a Colorado State Patrol division stationed in classrooms on the lookout for unpatriotic students who refuse to stand to salute the flag every morning. No one is being held at gunpoint until they recite the Pledge with proper enunciation and oral punctuation. In fact, students can bring in parent notes to excuse them from reciting the pledge. And religious objectors like Jehovah Witnesses are easily allowed to refrain from saying the creed.
But according to Dr. Allen Chen from University of Denver College of Law, the ACLU’s lead attorney in the lawsuit, the plaintiffs are not offended by the Pledge of Allegiance on religious grounds. “Our clients rely on objections of conscience that are separate from religious concerns. By requiring that they recite the pledge despite their objections, the Colorado law violates our clients’ free speech rights.”
In other words, the ACLU and its plaintiffs are just plain anti-American and they want to get rid of the Pledge for the sake of getting rid of the Pledge.
One anti-American plaintiff is Miss Keaty Gross, a senior at George Washington High School in Denver County. Miss Gross claims, “I am a patriotic person, but I believe that part of our freedom in the United States is to express our support of our country in different ways. There should not be only one way to express your patriotism.”
Whatever version of the Pledge of Allegiance Miss Gross is familiar with must state that any other forms of patriotic expression other than the Pledge are strictly prohibited. And in her imaginary world as a victimized slave chained to the flag pole of oppression, Miss Gross would commit civil disobedience against a non-existent clause in the Pledge by sitting and protesting the American flag while her classmates salute it, thereby expressing what she calls “patriotism.”
Or perhaps Miss Gross means that she would prefer to pledge her allegiance to something other than America. Like the United Nations, or a statue of Karl Marx, or Marx’s legacy known as the ACLU.
The Pledge of Allegiance to America is a quick and easy routine at the start of each day that lays in the memory of each student a summary of fundamental American ideals.
Such a simple expression of patriotism is not only harmless, it echoes the historical mission of America’s education system to cultivate good citizenship.
To the drugged up, warped senses of the ACLU, citizenship is a rotting, archaic concept. National unity and patriotism are outmoded values. Duty, honor, and country are the relics of dead generals that have yet to be sued out of school history books in some not-too-distant lawsuit campaign. Liberty is to be replaced with license and justice with favoritism to the devoid of truth.
And then the red, white, and blue will cease to wave because of neglect. It will be the ACLU that presides over the final lowering of shredded Old Glory if ever that day comes.
Thus we ought to preserve the Pledge of Allegiance while we have the chance. We should be working to ensure that every state requires the daily recitation of the Pledge in our schools.
Let’s join together to pledge our support for the Pledge of Allegiance.
Oh yeah, I am ready. I hope all pumas have fun getting those flyers and posters out on all the campuses. We should come up with special ones *just* for college kids, and I have something in mind…I shall share it with the ones who will make it possible.
PUMA brochures/flyers for college campuses would be excellent. My daughter is heading off to a fairly elite college campus where even the professors are delirious from the “hope-ium.” She is not looking forward to the peer pressure and tactics. She’ll be strong.

This Obama driven nastiness is moving beyond America’s shores — to the Caribbean.
Already hatred and charges of racism toward expats living in the Caribbean.
Obama is opening the Pandora’s box of vile and evilness.
IF he wins it will be a very rocky time indeed.
What needs to happen is for Obama to be exposed for the lying con man that many of us have discovered. His mask must be removed to show that he is an illusion.
hi! must be westcoasters here?
I just spent a chunk of time reading the dual citizenship issue. Wow! If you guys haven’t read it, it’s really worth it. Also, there’s a guy on Love America or Fix It with a tip about Colin Powell possibly accepting the VP for McCain. Woo! Hoo! That would “fix” Obama’s wagon for certain!
I heard that also somewhere but I don’t think it was that show. Saying there is some whispering that Romney will not be the VP announcement Colin Powell will. I didn’t even realize he was being vetted.
I do not see Powell on McCain’s ticket for several reasons. Powell is 71 years old and McCain is already getting hammered on his age. I would expect Powell to endorse Obama. And I don’t think Powell wants the position.
Powell could get on the ticket to carry him through the GE and then step down a few months later…it’s been done before.
Um let’s think for a second. Colin Powell hasn’t even endorsed McCain yet! I hardly think he’s being considered for VP. It’s almost August for gods sake! In fact it’s been reported that he’s an “Obamacon”. Where do you people get your news from? Does it just magically beam down from the mother ship?
Hints of a Colin Powell or Condi Rice Endorsement for Obama
July 21, 2008 05:00 PM ET | Paul Bedard | Permanent Link
There’s huge buzz again in Sen. Barack Obama’s camp that former Secretary of State Colin Powell is readying an endorsement of the Democrat running for president against the retired general’s old pal, Sen. John McCain. It started last week as the first-term senator was preparing for his so-far-successful overseas trip this week. Insiders suggested that Powell would either endorse Obama or appear with him before the trip began, but it didn’t happen, leading some to say that Powell is interested to see how Obama handles himself on the world stage. Allies to McCain, meanwhile, say that Powell isn’t a lost cause. Talk of a post-trip endorsement heated up again today after Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice teased CNN’s Wolf Blitzer on her upcoming endorsement. On Late Edition yesterday, Rice said that she has decided whom to vote for but declined to indicate her choice. Many Republicans took that as suggesting she’s going to back Obama, who has been very critical of the Bush-Rice foreign policy. But some administration officials said that Rice was simply refusing to get involved in the presidential race and will most likely back McCain.

McCain has reason to smile as he visits state

This is but one poll but I believe it is a sign of what will be in November.
It is unfortunate that race has become an issue in this election but none other than Obama made it so. People are sick to death of the race card being played, having it shoved in the faces of white people every time we turn around. There will always be injustice in the world. Women deal with it all the time. You don’t see us constantly ranting and raving about it. Demanding things you have not earned does not make equality. It does not “even the score” or make something right that is wrong.
If these Obama supporters on college campus continue their behavior as it has been, it will surely be made more apparent and caught on camera and viewed publicly. After August more and more of these types of things will be shown at least by Fox news. This anger and hate will be another turn off for voters on Obama.
Brazile may think she doesn’t need us but college kids and blacks do not comprise the voting base of Democrats and Republicans. The trolls that show up here are further confirming what type of candidate Obama is.
On that note, I watched a few minutes of Hannity’s America last night. He had a couple experts on there who said Obama’s promise of lower taxes for middle and lower income citizens is basically bullshit. And one said any Economic expert will tell you that you never raise taxes during a bad economy like ours or it will make it spiral downward faster. So they will go after Obama, I just think they will do it very conservatively and politely so the race card can’t be shuffled around.
Any grown ups who are politically savvy at all will not vote for Obama. they completely see through him and will not vote for a conman for any reason. I personally know so many dems who are either not voting or will vote McCain that I feel like a republican even though I have been a dem and hung out with mostly dems all my 43 years. I haven’t changed friends, we’ve all just gotten fed up with the party’s stupidity. Through Gore, Kerry, we stayed loyal. Now the dem congress with a 9% approval rating? This was/is the last straw. the only way to bring us back is to nominate Hillary Clinton for 2008. I may be gone forever. If there is anything close to a repeat of this BS in 2012, I will drive those folks out of this country on a little raft and hopefully my fellow PUMAs can help. Where should we send them? Beijing?
It would lend tremendous stability to McCain’s campaign to have Colin Powell, especially because of the terrible treatment he got from Bush/Rumsfield.
Mom just told me she will NEVER vote for any ticket with POWELL
She calls him a traitor and the SOLE PERSON that had the slightest influence about WMD being in IRAQ. She gave him the credit for making it easier for her to handle them making that MISTAKE OF A RIGHT TURN IN TO IRAQ.
So POWELL is a loser to some X DEMS and probably ALLL remaining ones that watched that farce of a show he put on in front of the whole nation.
sorry dudes
pick someone else more credible
Ok I’m going to sleep now, but I just found this article and hadn’t read it before. If you read it and you’re like me you better bring a kleenex or two. It’s about him and Kerry in 2004 and being asked about being Kerry’s VP. They posted McCain’s speech on the Pledge of Allegiance.
Quote from the article:
http://tinyurl.com/5kjcb7
I remember McCain telling this story at a Republican convention, it may have been 1984, and it was well received. I read Reagan’s lips saying “that was beautiful” when McCain finished.
thanks for posting…I can’t begin to imagine the horror of such a thing. Some people are worse off because of it and some become stronger. McCain obviously became stronger.
I am not affiliated with any party but if I belonged to the Democratic party I would be so ashamed. I have never seen an organization with such poor leadership.
The top Democrats jumping on the Obama bandwagon, beginning with Kennedy, was a disgrace. When the disgusting Wright tapes surfaced and Obama tripped all over himself lying about his knowledge over a 20 year period, the Democratic leadership should have had the intelligence to withdrawn support for him and forced him to drop out. Instead what did they do? They tried to force Hillary out — this is insanity.
I believe this party strong armed the SDs and politicians to side with Obama for two reasons:
1. Protest threats from Sharpton.
2. The advantage of playing the race card with Obama.
First, everyone needs to stand up to Sharpton. The guy is a clown and a race baiter and needs to be called out instead of placated. He tried and failed to pull of the hoax of the century with Brawley.
The race card is so ubiquitous it is being played more than all of the cards in Vegas combined and that is a disgrace. And nine times out of ten the people playing the race card are the racists themselves. How many people supporting Obama are doing so because he is black or they are afraid of being called a racist? Probably all of them. The race card is the major component of Obama’s strategy and the reason for his success.
Unless somebody in the Democratic party steps up and demonstrates leadership responsibility this party will turn into the joker. I am looking for somebody in that party to take the first step and say Obama is not qualified and they will not support him. Then I am looking for others to have the courage to do the same.
I totally agree with you. I commented that people are tired of the race card being played.
My response to those who accuse me of racism?
SO WHAT?! These people have made me feel more animosity toward blacks than anyone else at any time, when in reality, it is they who are racist.
Did they not understand that whites now see in the clear light of day what is behind those smiling faces, the polite conversation, the discourse of a normal day. It is that the secret hatred they feel for us is out in the open, thanks to Wright, Michelle and the Obama crew. Ridicule us behind closed doors, wish unimaginable things upon us and this country in the dark, but make no mistake, you win no friends with these attitudes, feelings and actions.
We are not so willing, anymore, to cut blacks so much slack out of ‘white guilt’. That day is over and they’ve only themselves to blame for it. I’m looking out for my own!
God, Elizabeth, that is one huge amount of racismyou’ve just spewed there (looking out for my own????).
I will proudly NOT vote for junior Hussein this November (and I’m a life time democrat!) but I really think you went a little over the top there! Try and use a little proportionality. I mean, I an’t no PC moron, but really…
-MS
ParkSlopeVoter & Elizabeth -
It sounds like she’s looking out for her own family to me. Good for her.
At least she’s not demanding reparations!
Be careful with the racism comments. Hussein? I’m sure you will be called racist by someone as well.
I think Elizabeth is just vocalizing what many anti-Obamas have felt over the last few months after being accused of racism and then watching this candidates fellow parishioners revel in diatribes aimed at our humiliation. While it may not be PC, it is a glimpse into the hearts and minds of many who have been discouraged to the point of alienation.
racism/racist are now meaningless words post-Obama
stateof,
I have a much better answer for obots when they accuse me of being a racist because I won’t vote for junior.
I simply ask if I was a racist when I voted for David Dinkins EVERY time has ran for mayor of NYC? Or if I was a racist when I voted for my congresswoman, Yvette Clarke?
I think that makes the point more effectively, no?
-MS
yea she had me until the “taking care of my own” shit
see my family is mixed race LIZ
who would you have be look out for ?????
yea you aren’t racist at all
With all of the free passes Obobo gets for his gaffes and insults, I think I’ll let Elizabeth off the hook on this on as just venting her frustration. It happens; especially for those who have been continuously chided as racists despite NEVER HAVING BEEN ONE.
That is a good answer ParkSLope, but many of these thugs refuse to hear logic. My neighbors are AA, I have several AA friends and have had a “Clinton” shrine of sorts in my house for years. — Yet, when I put my Hillary sign out on the yard, my neighbors immediately accused us of being racist. They haven’t spoken to us since.
It’s gross…and Obama has done more to destroy race relations than any other figure in recent history.
stateof,
“Yet, when I put my Hillary sign out on the yard, my neighbors immediately accused us of being racist. They haven’t spoken to us since.”
Well, then f*ck ‘em…

There is only one group of people voting based entirely on skin color. We know who the real racists are.
The backlash started in May, and it will only keep growing. People like Spike Lee fuel the backlash with comments like “There will be a Chocolate City in November, so get used to it”.
In November, people will be telling Spike Lee to cram his Chocolate City up his Chocolate Ass.
http://www.reuters.com/article/politicsNews/idUSN2042270720080620?feedType=RSS&feedName=politicsNews&rpc=22&sp=true
Of course, when Spike’s new film (Miracle at St Anna)opens later this year and bombs, he’ll use racism as the reason. If it should happen to be a huge box-office hit, he’ll attribute the success to the actors’ performances and his own directorial skill and race won’t be a factor.
I’m letting Elizabeth off the hook on this one too.
I see Elizabeth’s statement as a balancing out of the unfair advantage of the Affirmative Action years. It is as if the blacks have been petulant little children ( of course not ALL blacks play this game) and have wanted to blame, blame, blame.
The white guilt era is indeed over. No more favoritism based on skin color. No more turning a blind eye or being fearful to speak up because of a person’s skin tone.
If blacks want the equality they scream for, then they can no longer hide behind Affirmative Action. They need to step up to the plate and become fully functional citizens of the United States. Hate filled rappers and gang members, criminals, and welfare baby factory mommas need to rapidly become a thing of the past.
Go ahead scream racism, if you must. But it is a problem that needs to be addressed in the US.
“Did they not understand that whites now see in the clear light of day what is behind those smiling faces, the polite conversation, the discourse of a normal day. It is that the secret hatred they feel for us is out in the open, thanks to Wright, Michelle and the Obama crew.”
Not all blacks feel that way about whites. One of my black friends knows I don’t like Obama and he has no problem with it…he’s no mindless Obamabot…he was the first one to tell me that Obama was imploding his own campaign with the Rev. Wright stuff many many months ago.
to Elizabeth – thanks for having the guts to say what ALOT have been thinking!
Thank God I’m not in college anymore.
As for college campuses, I live around a large number of colleges and universities. I actually live a mile from an historically black university. These students are from backgrounds similar to Obama—elitist and entitled.
I am definitely looking forward to the start of the school year, but I have to wait until after Labor Day. Groan!
I always look forward to the Olympics, but I’m not so sure this time around. College football season begins soon and my family will be overjoyed.
I’m so ready for Obama’s defeat. We cannot stop or relent until this man is absolutely defeated.
By the way, we’ll need all the PUMAs and Hillary Democrats to vote for McCain if he chooses Powell. Like McCain, to many conservatives Powell is liberal. I know! I know! I know!
After Obama gets creamed, the Obamites can quit politics and go back to writing crappy songs.
ok I agree there’s been nothing good for a couple years but up until about 2005 there has been some pretty good stuff come out!
My Daughter would always have something new for me to listen to and some of it was good.
Lately though? Not so much. lol
I saw a clip of an interview with BO where he said that he didn’t deserve any criticism because he didn’t see where his trip was any different than McCain’s or others. Then he flashed his wide demonic smile and said, “It’s just that we did it very well”. I wanted to reach over and (well I better not say).
He also said that “he felt sorry for John McCain”. Somehow I don’t believe that — such condescension is so offensive that I just can’t bear it.
I don’t believe I heard where McCain played basketball and worked out and skipped on on the Vets. McCain doesn’t need Obama’s sympathy.
It would seem, if you listen to the MSM and obamabots that you could have put a period right after criticism. i.e.,

Thanks for the heads up JR. I was looking forward to hearing your next post.
My driveway is 150 feet long, so if they make that trek to knock on my door I intend to play dumb and say I haven’t made up my mind yet “can you tell me why I should give him my vote?” I’ll just keep them yakking as long as possible and just waste their time. They’ve no hope in my neighborhood … there are “Support our Troops” signs all over. I think his skipping out on visiting Landstuhl over working out doesn’t exactly qualify as supporting the troops.
Of course, I’m still hoping to vote for Hillary, but McCain is my second choice.

I live and work in a college town at a major university here in the East. Our state is one that is a key toss-up state and the ONLY reason that Obama has a chance to win its the mindless adherence to his flawed rhetoric that he receives in a college town like ours. I have many friends who are Ozombies and they’ve gotten to the point where they won’t even bring politics up with me anymore because they just…can’t…handle…debate. They hem and haw, the stutter and say ‘hope and change’ and never seem to be able to find their footing on any issue. When faced with the obviously succinct allusion to socialism and marxism, they stutter and say i’m fear-mongering, but when you spell out the tenants of Karl Marx or the main adjunct philosophies of socialism, they stare at you blindly and try to change the subject.
I’ve coined the term ‘lazy’ voter to describe the pseudo-intellectual academic vote that Obama earns. It’s a two-pronged attack on those who either go to or work at colleges and universities: The students are just too damn lazy to actually do some research on the subject of policy. They are more worried about what song is playing at the rallies and if they can ‘pretend’ that this is the 60s again and they are somehow relevant. The professors are so egomaniacal that they assume they are right because, well, they’re so damned smart, right? I mean they have Master’s degrees (as do I) and doctorates and they get paid to mold the minds of our youth so they don’t need to delve deeply into the petty issues of policy, their gut feelings are enough.
I feel sorry in a lot of ways for the youth of our nation. We’ve lost our way somewhere and I think it all began about the time that MTV actually STOPPED playing music and started focusing on absolutely horrendous reality TV shows.

My siblings and I were just telling our parents that a 22-year-old in their day was considered a grownup. But adolescence for a lot of our culture has been extended to 30. My 44-year-old brother and I both agreed we felt a backlash, or correction coming on, and that adolescence was likely to soon be scaled back to the teen years and early twenties would emerge as early adulthood.
The young people like this diarist are the future leaders of this country. Very inner-directed, thinking for themselves. This author gives me hope.
But so many who go straight to college (like I did) are still being supported by their parents until college graduation and even beyond. It is perfectly OK not to vote regularly until you’re in your 30s if you just don’t have a handle on the issues.
McCain is a Patriot.
And Obama is a Parrot
What is it now? The third year of the reemergence of the SDSes (beginning with the year Obama became a US Senator?)? The SDSes that gave us the likes of Dorhn and Ayers in the 1960s. The same creeps who always appears after the nation has experienced traumatic crisis like 9/11, GW’s war of choice in Iraq, a floundering economy, etc. The same old SDSes that breed socialism and Marxism/Leninism upheavel that have the Obama/Dean Party leading their movements. It’s just a repeat of history.
“I don’t believe I heard where McCain played basketball and worked out and skipped on on the Vets.”
that claim about obama “skipping out on vets” is total bullshit like almost 99.9% of the things written here.
–for starters, he was in teh gym with troops when he made that nice 3-pointer
SWOOOOSH!
Snopes already has a whole section and there have been many letters in the stars and stripes about how nice obama was to the troops he visited with in afghanistan, iraq, and elsewhere on his trip.
it is right here:

But I know you deluded sore loser dems and your fellow traveller GOP rat fuckers– that are so “helpful” in encouraging you to vote GOP this cycle– don’t care about reality anymore.
It’s hell trying to prop up a turd like Obama.
isn’t it? Is “rat fuckers” the replacement theme for the worn out racist attacks on those who vote for a war hero now?

For starters, I’m not impressed and I don’t think anyone gives a rat’s ass except clowns like you.
“Snopes already has a whole section”
They are in the tank for Obama so I don’t care what they have.
Apparently it bothers you that everyone does not fall in line behind a worthless megalomaniac. If you want to sit around and sing kumbaya with Obama that is your problem. Jim Jones and his followers tried it and it did not work out for them. Some people never learn.
shut up Steve, you’re a dickhead. He walked right by troops standing waiting on him. What’s your excuse for him cancelling his visit to a hospital? Don’t give me any bullshit that he wasn’t allowed. It’s been confirmed that he was, he just couldn’t parade in there like it was a party.
Your lack of intelligence is evidenced by being impressed that Obama can shoot a 3 point basketball shot. WHO CARES??
Stevie You are a sucker and bought the packaging.
Smoke and mirrors?? Who’s the PR Marketer in Obama’s campaign?
A little off topic, but has anyone read Our Daily Meds? An expose about the Big Drug Companies– Apparently the drug companies will “Create a Disease” like over active bladder and then re-package an old generic drug- detrol and make a billion dollars in one year selling it. There are many other New FAKE barely tested drugs with terrible side effects being marketed (as we see everyday on TV commercials). Nexium is just repackaged Prilosec (which is available in generic and over the counter)- I’ve been ripped off big time by that one.
PROSAC and other anti-depressants being shoved down our throats etc…I ask WHY?? Money of course and control?? Dumbing down??
My point is if we (and doctors) can be suckered by marketing smoke and mirrors about new diseases and drug cures a clever PR Marketer can create OBAMA..
Obama is being shoved down our throat just like fake drugs. It’s all in the presentation and marketing.

*Claims there to be 57+ States in the union
*Claims an American Uncle liberated a death camp with the Russians in WW2
*Claims to be a product of Selma that occurred years before his birth
*Claims to be a product of the Kennedy airlift, when that happened after his father was already on US soil
*Claims to have introduced and passed legislation that never happened
*Claims the Senate Banking Commitee is HIS commitee
*Claims to have drawn 75,000 people to listen to his speech in Portland void of any bands playing prior to his speech
*Claims to have drawn 200,000 people in Berlin to hear him speak, void of any bands, free beer and Brats to lure the people there
*Claims to be against FISA, yet votes for it
*Claims and signs to campaign on Public Financing, only to reneg on it
*Claims to know terrorists as guys in his neighborhood only, yet worked closely with them for years
And the list goes on. Expect this from an old guy like McCain to make these mis-steps, sure, but since they are from a 46 year old empty suit politician speaks volumes about reality.
Fine line between reality and deception usually, only in the case of Obama it boils down to a fine line between ignorance and pathological lying.
The worst part of this entire process this season is that if you do not fall in line with the candidate who is Black and is a pathological liar, you are deemed a racist by those who believe this Black pathological liar.
Well at the end of the day, if being labelled a racist by someone who believes in a pathological liar is the only avenue these pathological liar supporters have, then let it be, because it will prove only one thing in the end, those believers in the pathological liar will always be stupid and ignorant and those who do not believe will sleep at night with a clear head and soul!
had to work hard, didn’t you steeve BOY?
obama is a jerk, a prick, and an unpatriotic, self-centerd sob.
he’s afraid to visit the troops because he knows they will see right through him, and because he knows he could never command the respect of these soldiers who have sacrificed everything for our country. obama has sacrificed nothing and gained everything.
NObama. Hillary or McCain, 08
And sometimes the term ‘lazy’ voter doesn’t apply. It boils down to a sad and out-dated vitriol that seems rather out of place given that we are currently living through perhaps the most dangerous days this planet has seen since the height of communism…perhaps even more so.
There is a disturbing blind rage that the infected seem to fall into the usually ends with many a curse word and a lapse into pop culture terminology and importances.
I remember being so young and yet so frightened by what happened in Jonestown, Guyana. Watching that horrible tragedy play itself out on screen actually had a huge impact on my life as I now eschew any religion, whatsoever. The blissful following of others words, unresearched, unconfirmed by ones own detailed examination is, to me, just another branch of the rotting vine that to me was fully showcased in South America way back when.
Are the Ozombies going to all commit suicide if McCain wins in November? Obviously not. But what I wonder is this…for the particularly virulent, like those that try and use verbal force, obscenity and juvenile condescention to bully people into giving up their opposition to Obama…if He asked, would they?

Back to School means more heart-tugging appeals to over taxed Americans for millions more in tax-dollars for the train wreck that is Public school education.
Here in Chicago, Obama’s pal and Il. Senate Tax and grabber Rev./Sen. James Meeks who tosses the race card like Texas Hold ‘Em Dealer calls for parents to keep their kids home from Chicago Public Schools and board buses to north suburban Winnetka ( one of the wealthiest suburbs in America) to high light ‘the injustice of a great school district paid for by the taxpayers of that district.
Meeks and Obama were huge public school cash cow shills in Springfield.

I don’t know if I can call our school system corrupt or just extremely stupid about managing the finances. Last year they tried to saddle homeowners w a $1 billion dollar school project for not just some new roofing but millions in amenities! Not long ago a school got an in ground pool and another got a baseball field. Yet another got new landscaping and parking lots. I ask you, if the roofs are falling in and plumbing needs repaired, what do you think is more important?? The superintendent I believe is incompetent and has no business being in charge of anything. Homeowners got a petition going and soundly defeated it. We offered to go along w something for bare necessities but the schools wouldn’t do it. So you know what they got? NOTHING. With the economy like it is we couldn’t believe they had the nerve to ask us for this. Alot of the shit they wanted they didn’t have to have. Over half the student body gets free lunches now and books. Who foots the bill for that? Yep, homeowners. 50% of my tax bill is for the schools and I don’t even have any kids! ENOUGH.

Who do these people think they are running against ? Gore may have crumbled but if the GE is contested the GOP will hunker down for the long term and with a Republican POTUS….a few riots and some burned neighborhoods won’t make the republicans blink….sheeesh
I am not suprised. Only people w shit for brains would continue supporting Obama. Oh, I forgot, he’s qualified because he can shoot a 3 point basket-whoosh! Maybe they were playing some vulgar, dirty rap music for him to get motivated.
Thanks for the thoughtful post Iowa JR.
My daughter told me yesterday that the area around the major campus in her area is covered with “O” signs. She also saw a vanity plate- OBAMA08! Getting pretty wild don’t you think?
I must have gotten really lucky. I live about a mile, maybe a mile and a half from a college campus and these young adults aren’t in the tank for the O man. They walk around smoking their Indonesian cigarettes. Wearing camouflage jackets and berets. They wanted Ron Paul (He’s not really a Republican. He’s a Libertarian is what they told me). Now it looks like they’re going for Cynthia McKinney. Democrats and Republicans are soooo yesterday and out of touch with everything. I had a group of them bring me what they thought was an injured crow a couple months ago. They were very disappointed that I had/was supporting Hillary.
Sassy,
Here in my traditionally Democratic working stiff neighborhood, many of the union guys are sporting Obama bumper stickers but are voting for McCain.
I think that will be a pattern across the country…Folks like to keep their tires intact….know what i’m sayin
OMG…LOL…good idea,
Mario Cuomo (D NY) still has not backed Obama – says he hasn’t been specific enough.
It’s nice to know at least one Party Elder still has a brain.

was that necessary?
I know everyone is going to love this. Take a look at the new ad runnung on MTV. “Both Ways Barack”
http://www.bothwaysbarack.com
This ad has already been out for a week, so I seem to be behind the times.
They should have made a buy on Comedy Central during the Daily Show.
have you actually SEEN this running on MTV????
IF so that is GREATTTTTTTTTT!
I’ve only seen it on Fox.
This ad was created by a very right-wing organization that has bringing us back to “family values” as one of its missions…it’s sad that I find myself on the side of these people this election. But their ad is damn good.
I have seen it many times on FOX. I wish they’d buy airtime on CNN.
Obama’s ACORN Stole One Million Dollars From Charities
Obama’s home political supporters, the leftist “community” organization called ACORN, is guilty of hiding the theft of one million dollars of its funds by the brother of the organization’s founder, Wade Rathke
http://countusout.wordpress.com/2008/07/28/obamas-acorn-stole-one-million-dollars-from-charities/
gee dumb asses, when he was shooting baskets he was in afghanistan and hanging out with troops.
therefore, he didn’t blow off the troops in afghanistan.
maybe he didn’t stop and shake hands with troops at the airport cause there was sniper fire coming, just like hillary in bosnia.
and the hospital issue is sounding more and more like the pentagon playing games–which, last I heard was still run by republicans–just like the state department is playing games by telling employees they cannot attend obama speeches in germany while simultaneously setting up trips and encouraging employees to attend rallies for mccain.
no, its obambi pure and simple. go ahead and blame the pentagon. your brain is worthless if you are so blinded by obambi that you can’t see this.
yawn. another foolish idiotic troll.
hey stevieboy, dipshit, the cancellation of his hospital trip was CONFIRMED. Do you know what that means shit for brains?? Obama decided not to go when he found out he couldn’t drag in the press and his staff. shut up until you have something intelligent to say which will be never.
Monday Poll…Obama bounce GONE!!!!!!
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that Barack Obama’s Berlin bounce is fading. Obama now attracts 45% of the vote while John McCain earns 42%
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/election_20082/2008_presidential_election/daily_presidential_tracking_poll
B.O’s support is a mile wide and half and inch thick.
I just heard fox news(I believe) quote gallup at Obama 49 – McCain 40
it was on in the other room
I think it’s really pathetic that people are “organizing” to change McCain signs to COcain signs…as if that is going to sway any voters to Obama’s side. More likely the reverse!
where’s the link for that?
It’s in the article above.
