The Kingdom Takes Over Denver
By Pat Racimora on August 19, 2008 at 3:55 PM in Constitution, Democratic National Convention, Obamatopia
What would a gaudy extravaganza for “The Coronation” be without a dungeon? Sure enough, as Uppity Woman has already reported here wire cages topped off with barbed wire and stun-gun carrying guards await anyone who …. does what?
Despite detailed descriptions of the facility, the arrest, bond posting, and court processing, why one would be arrested remains fuzzy. I finally found the one sheet flier everyone will be handed that sheds new light on the term “vague.” Couched in the cloak of one’s rights, your guess as to why you can be hauled off to the Denver Gitmo is as good as mine. Every “right” has a “but.” You can speak out, unless….You can march on public streets, unless… Or, I quote, “Even if you are not engaged in unlawful activity, you are subject to citation and/or arrest if you do not leave the area defined by the police in their lawful (?) order to disperse.” I get the feeling that the police can make it up as they go.
This reminds me of the bigger picture. Obama’s comment last June 14th in Philadelphia, “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun” suggests that his critics will be treated harshly. The Democratic Party has lost its moorings and appears to be about to push through an inexperienced candidate who we know little about (most records either conveniently missing or under embargo), and what we do know involves some pretty ruthless and dangerous associates. How would the freedom of expression and right of association be played out under an Obama administration? Like Denver, it simply is not clear–but it feels ominous.

























When Obama is president, you’ll have one of those on every street.
yes, true - and the cages will be labeled “herein are the racists.”
and all will be wearing big red R’s on their shirts.
they will be marched down the streets where the witch.. I mean racist burnings will be held.
Yeah, that’s exactly right — we get the details in our secret daily bot emails — once Obama is president, martial law will be imposed, all those who did not vote for him will be arrested, all puppies and kittens will be outlawed, rainbows will vanish, and all will be darkness forevermore.
Do you people have any what fucking idiots you sound like? Grow the hell up.
admitting it is the first step to detox you obama supporters from all the kool-aid you induced.
LOL!
Ummmmmm…
I believe it’s called SNARK.
Sheesh, have a sense of humor…oh wait, I forgot. Obama and his minions have none.
Folks are having fun, that’s all. Never too old for that.
BUT sfhillary, you must be too young to remeber 1968. That was something else again, and the people are about as upset now as they were then.
One saving grace, of course, will be that Hillary supporters are not a violent lot. I would be much more afraid if Hillary was the one to be nominated.
You know, it has never once crossed my mind to go a pro-Obama site and irritate people. Now who needs to grow the hell up?
btintaos,
You get the brass ring. Right on the money.
Who indeed needs to grow the hell up?
Like they would ever let that happen. Dailykooks allows ZERO criticism and critiques of Obama, no matter how pro-Obama or meaningfull it is.
same with democraticunderground.com; it’s cheerleading for the wonder boy or you’re outta there.
You come here where you are able to post freely (unlike pro-oblahblah websites) and call us idiots. Look, you half-baked, half-witted troll, if you don’t like what we post here, go the hell away-you be a grown up for a change.
Right, like Obamabots are grown up. Donna Brazile: If Obama isn’t the nominee, I’m leaving the Party. Then the bots criticize Hillary people if we don’t like him.
You grow up!
The left was all upset over Bush and his cages….so now they create cages themselves!?
What happened to the Constitutional law lecturer’s respect for the Constitution?
Scared they might reveal someone who hasn’t drank the kool-aid on tv? The MSM certainly won’t report it so what is the worry with Obama? That the First Amendment might actually occur on the streets of Denver?
oOOOoo scary! People speaking their minds.
It is such utter nonsense that they accept this from Obama when the left whined about Bush subverting democracy with these same cages. They have no honor.
However, the proof of Obama’s intent will be in the accounts of the people who were caught. It certainly was with the Bush cages.
it is an eye-opener indeed to see how quickly democrats adopt the gestapo tactics they decried when repugs first used them.
Actually, I don’t think this is the democratic party in regard to the “gastapo” tactics now being used by the Obamas.
In one of the videos about the astonishing tactics used in the caucuses, this democratic party leader said, “The democratic party has been taken over by ‘young white males’” - the MoveOn.Org types.
This, of course, with the blessing of Dean, Brazile, Pelosi, and Clyburn. And the reason we MUST take our party back. We cannot allow this hi-tec demographic group who knows nothing about history or life to take over the reins of this country.
Obama will re-name the US “Zimbabwe West” after his friend Mugagbe.
Oh, yeah. And I bet there were a bunch of sycophants like you in Germany when the shit started hitting the fan there, too. When Nobama & the DNC start ACTING like democrats, we’ll start believing they really are. Until then, better to be prepared and hope we were just being paranoid. Some of us remember all too well how people can get carried away by their political fervor and end up doing really bad things. What concerns some of us is that if y’all will brook no dissent now, what the hell would you be like if your candidate actually won? Like we used to say in the sixties- “Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean no one’s following you.”
Make sure there’s plenty of memory on your cel ph. camera. Bring plenty of memory cards and batteries for you camaras. If you have heart problems, maybe a sign stating your condition would be wise…
Will there be separate “cages” for the P.U.M.A.s, too????
Whatever happened to the constitutional law - on the Right to Assemble. As of right now this is a free country in which people have the right to protest. Just asking.
The photo should be on CNN’s daily Hot Shots: Images of Tomorrow’s News.
With you in it.
you obama would love that, wouldn’t you? you’d love obama and dnc thugs to take away our constitutional freedoms.
you obama supporters would love that, wouldn’t you? you’d love obama and dnc thugs to take away our constitutional freedoms.
Actually, it’s McCain and the Republicans who pose a far greater threat to our constitutional freedoms. But you have to live in the real world to know this, and the real world is not exactly a PUMA strong suit.
if we’re so insignificant, you wouldn’t be spending much of your time here, complaining about us constantly.
FISA! FISA!
the real (grown up) progressives are not backing fauxbama.
Absolutely correct!
And it is not just FISA but backtracking on off-shore drilling, pro-choice, gun control, and taking about 7 different positions on the war in Iraq.
Right and wrong. Trouble is our rights have already been eroded. We live in a torture state and we can be disappeared at the command of the executive.
Excuse me but, what was 0bama’s vote on FISA again?
0bama and his Chicago thug tactics are no better than anything the Rethugs have done. Caucus cheating. Hacking sites. Threatening people. Not allowing opposing viewpoints on pro0bama sites, unlike here at No Quarter, these don’t exactly put me in the mood for seeing it your way.
But then again, I don’t do kool-aid.
Talk about not living in the real world.
what was Obama’s vote on FISA again???
I have a challenge for your candidate; why doesn’t he challenge McCain to a test on the Constitution and see who wins. Because from what I hear Obama isn’t too up on Constitutional law. After this weekend’s performance, I think McCain would win.
And I don’t know about Obama’s “real world” but in the real world we live in no one is providing us with 6 million dollar mansions and inflation just jumped to 5.6% in July. That’s very real to Voters!
You want to talk about the real world when all of you hopeless Obama zombies think you are following the yellow brick road to Oz.
ummmmm typical Obama thug response. What do you want. A Robert Mugabe type of oppression. You remind me of his supporters. Who rant and rave for their cheap-horn Dictator!
I think their preference is an Odinga style one…keep it in the family type of thing.
That was not my post.
Except he’s NOT gonna be president! PUMA!
I hope and pray,you are right.Barry will never be the president of our country.Sometime I loose every hope that the truth will ever pevail
16 years of Obama. 8 for Barry, 8 for Michelle. That’s a lot of time to spend in a dungeon.
He will NOT be president- plain and simple. America is waking up.
Surreal coming from you.
And you will be in it as soon as you do not obey Baby Obama.
Well, they could be for all the pissed off Obamabits who try and riot after Hillary get the nomination….a girl can dream can’t she?
If not then, the on November 5.
You have that right, Strawberry!
Obama brings a natural high to all Americans. With Barack we do not need beer and drugs. Denver is the perfect place for hearing the intoxicating words of Barack Obama.
not to this American. He makes me sick to my stomach with worry for America’s future under Soetoro. NO thanks, I don’t want an Indonesian dictatorship.
Obama is the political equivalent of Syrup of Ipecac. You wouldn’t be able to hold down beer or drugs, anyway. Somehow Oborg derive a ‘high’ from that.
Most of this country will be ill from Obama and will need quite a bit of legal drugs while Obama and his zombies will be doing the illegal drugs while singing kumbaya.
Pass the Obamaijuana
I hope this is a snark.
Naw man Obama was saying just the other day…
“Up In Smoke” C&C
WTF?
How old are you? 17? That simply has no logic or reality attached to it!!
That’s the Obot panties falling down statement of the day! LOL
Look everyone - a funny Obot!!!
BooBoo:
If you think the economy is bad now wait until everyone calls in sick if Obama becomes president.
In an Obama presidency, I suppose I’ll have to wear a yellow star on my clothing, too…
And the Obamabots will each be fitted with their very own Brown Shirt…
It gets scarier and scarier.
Nah you won’t need a star if you’re a white woman.
Zing!
Remember when nuns were arrested in CO because of protesting the war in IraQ?
We can either fight this now or wait till Nazi Germany is upon us. Its clear that with the consolidation of power under Bush, we’re living in a more and more rights-restricted America.
I like that one Strawberry
There’s still a part of me that truly believes Hillary will walk away from the convention as our nominee, and these “cages” are for the angry Obamabots; who are naturally violent, abusive and irrational as it is.
Imagine, we all know the Superdelegates are going to decide this, and they’ve all been privy to the same info we have these past couple months. There just might be a Clinton Coup at the convention with the Supers going her way. Then we can all get some much needed rest knowing our country will be safe and these Obamafreaks are put away where they belong.
Well James, I can’t imagine cages being built for the average Hillary supporter. If we Clintonites haven’t rioted yet at the way we’ve been treated, I don’t know what else could make us resort to violence. Perhaps Barky stabbing puppies? Michelle eating the heads off of fluffy bunnies?
You mean everyone who supports Obama deserves…what exactly?
jail, idiot. there is no place in america for racist thugs like you or Soetoro.
All Obama supporters are sexist and homophobic. They are also very violent, and many of them have a predilection for criminal behaviour.
what do you mean deserves what? you deserve HIM, the ONE, of course!
A brain transplant.
I agree with UMMM. What was that he said he would have, a civilian army or something? He reminds me of the news reils they used to show of Hitler before movies in the 50s when I was a kid.
“This reminds me of the bigger picture. Obama’s comment last June 14th in Philadelphia, “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun” suggests that his critics will be treated harshly.”
Is Obama suggesting his supporters bring guns to the convention in Denver???
If they do, will Obama be held accountable for incite to violence and possibly murder?
Of course not. He’s not held accountable of anything. That’s his definition of leadership.
Are you really this stupid? Are you not familiar with that quote? It’s a famous quote from a movie about Al Capone, and Obama’s comment referred to not sitting back and taking Republican negative attacks without fighting back. It has nothing to do with actual violence and nothing to do with Democrats.
Man, every time I think I cannot read a dumber comment from a PUMA, you folks prove me wrong.
really? then that means, *gasp*, obama would be doing negative campaigning even though he said he would be a candidate of hope and change and new politics. of course, to obama, it’s just words.
Oh, hush. That’s what you’re getting paid for!
some of us are true pacifists, we don’t believe in even speaking of violence. obama needs to rid his speech of “hip” pop culture and rap references. he loses more of us EVERY day.
Oh you mean Al Capone the infamous CHICAGO CRIME BOSS???
When you invoke the words of a mass murdering crime lord (whether from a movie or not), you are aligning yourself with that style of tactics.
If he meant what you say he meant, then he should have said just that. Instead of making an Obama/Capone comparison.
It’s a lose lose for Obama regarding this statement-
Either he meant it as it is, and considers Capone tactics ok
or
He didn’t mean it that way but is too stupid to know that he confirmed the fears a lot of us have about his wanna be Capone attitude
So which is it? Is he a wanna be Capone, or a stupid foot in mouth dolt?
The Chickenshit Sniper Troll is on the loose again.
If he didn’t mean it, then he surely is guilty of poor judgment, dumbass. Oops…I thought judgment was his strong suit.
LMAO.
Can Obama remember somebody else comment than Al Capone’s.All Chicago politics are based on Al-Capone, teaching and style. So, the apple won’t fall fare from the tree.Sad,he didn’t know a more intelligent comment,they are so many
Sad, Obama could not remember some other remarcable an intelligent comment,just Al-Capone’s.But you can’t expect a better one if your whole political experience are based on Al-Capone’s teaching and metods.
well there ya go, sfhillary, McCain said Obama was a ‘celebrity’, and quoting movies proves it!
What is he auditioning for a part in West side Story?
Ever had a 5 year old tell you he was more worried about gettin home with out getting shot than pratice the Piano?
I would guess not.
I feel like such a fool.
I never imagined there were such terrible Democrats as the Obama gang. In a matter of months, the whole party has gone bad.

Good one Perry!
Never run a Rovian campaign on your own party!
Not, really our party was hijacked by Dean and Company. There day is coming though.
Wow, that guy has some kind of personality disorder.
Yes, you are right. I think it’s confirmed that Obama has Narcissistic (sp) personality disorder bordering on being a Sociopath.
If he keeps telling his supporters to arm themselves, we can add psychopath to the list.
Confirmed by whom? lol. “Confirmed,” that’s rich.
confirmed by obama, you’re just proof of that.
remember on saturday night? in between gaffes and umms, he said he needs to be protected from his selfishness?! HELLO!
and then remember the Holy Wall in Jersusalem whem his “secret” letter to God was”leaked” — he wanted God to save him from his own pride…
yeah, he gets himself, one saving grace!
Aren’t you in the inner Obot circle? Obama channels Jim Jones, His contingency plan is to have all you Obots sacrifice yourselves at his feet Guns, poison, knives, whatever. But you will be expected to die for THE ONE.
Are you a brave little Obot? Or just a disenfranchised soul looking for a group to belong to?
Dear little Obot. So clueless. So gullible.
The Democratic Party will never unify without Clinton as the nominee,and Obama if need be the VP…
Nothing else will do,nothing else will fix this mess.
Clinton—Nominee
Obama —VP..
Nothing else will do..
Don’t be surprised if someone or some people die at the hands of taser-happy PO PO!
I’m not sure if Obama is smart enough to realize this but if people DO die at this thing, it’s an automatic landslide for McCain..
That is IF the election isn’t cancelled by Bush
Nah, Bush is so sick and tired of being king, he’s already got the movering truck baced up at the door of the White House. He can’t wait to sleep late(er) and snort coke off of Gannon’s tushy.
That’s the first time I’ve heard about monkey cancelling the election. If that happens, they’ll have to build hundreds of those contraptions all over the country.
Really the first time???
It’s a tongue in cheek referrence to the conspiracy theories going around about 4-5 years ago about Bush making it his decision to declare marshall law and have eveyone hauled off to concentration camps being built in secret locations.
I really thought everyone had heard those conspiracy theories.
Actually, it was more like six months ago when they were moving battleships into the Gulf and talking up what a baddie Iran is. An October surprise — more war! — shock and awe, goodby America.
What’s next, putting them to the rack until they confess to the sin of heresy?
I think I will choose being pressed to death.
Better yet, don’t get caught.
I’m just kidding of course.
What do I have to avoid getting caught doing?
My true feeling is:
I think it will be completely peaceful, very few arrests.
If you don’t know, I can’t explain it to you.
You misunderstand -
As I said in my comment, I think there will be very few arrests.
I won’t get arrested, or pressed to death, because I won’t be doing anything to get arrested, or pressed to death for.
Thanks for your concern tho.
All I can say is that I do not have a good feeling about this at all. It is either posturing or they plan on arresting people. The questions then become why the posturing or, conversely, how strictly they are going to enforce the restrictions?
Every political convention of the modern era has had protesters, gathering restrictions and at least a few arrests. When the same happens at this convention, though, you PUMAs with your laughably inflated sense of your own importance will no doubt proclaim the advent of fascism.
Face it, you’re an intellectual joke.
So why are you the one posting on what you know to be a Pro-Clinton site. You are what is laughable. DO you make bets between the bots, to see who can come to NQ and boast and upset people? Or is it like going past the scary abandoned mansion, and then you can tell all your friends you posted on NQ? Then you will be a “hit”, considered “hot”, and then you can claim a “random” life moment of taking a political stand. Please excuse my “vitriol”
Notice how they all come in about the same time? Cowards who need to rally each other up? They must IM each other and then flood in.
Notice how this thread started with an inside flush obots?
They asked for two and wound up with Ace’s and eight’s.
Oborg (especially sf-anti-hillary) are a genetic joke and “living” evidence that Darwin was wrong.
From the content of your post, I see you didn’t actually read the article.
Free-speech zones are un-American, cages for political prisoners are Un-American, rigged elections are un-American. And when your candidate says, “I will let no one question my love of this country.” I call that a violation of the first amendment and that is un-American.
“I will let no one question my love of this country.” I call that a violation of the first amendment and that is un-American.-
excellent deduction.
sorry I just had to.
.
I’d say you don’t have a lot of room to boast,considering your support for a buffoon wannabe for President.
actually ferd, I think Obama fully qualifies as a buffoon.
You all are cognizant of basic facts (like, this is Denver PD putting these arrangements together - not Obama) aren’t you? That Obama would have little or no control over how a municipal government would deal logistically with a major convention? Or is that too boring for you and really doesn’t let you get your blood up?
Everyone knows the ‘municipal governments’ are just the tools the big guys use to keep people in line.
What ever you wish to believe, the Governor AND Mayor are both Obama democrats in Colorado and they call the shots.
Ultimately, Obama’s thugs will decide what happens here, peace or violence.
I guess we’ll see.
You are naive.

security is worked out together, jointly, in conference, and approved by operatives, dumbass.
I think your posted summed it up much better than mine, above. There really is something to be said for putting the term dumbass at the end of a sentence. ROFL.
LOL
Are you aware that groups such as “re-create-68″ have worked closly with the city on what the rules are to be and went so far as to dicate the terms?
Get a clue. Or have you not been reading the reporting out of Denver in the last year?
This is a level one security event so the full “force” of the Patriot Act along Presidential directives and FISA are being brought to bear. The Denver PD Home Land Security will be wall to wall?
Whats a few cages to them?
Well, yeah, we know this isn’t Obama’s idea since nothing about his campaign has been his idea so far. Why would he decide to micro-manage the conv?

From NBC/NJ’s Mike Memoli
As Delaware Sen. Joe Biden left his home a few minutes ago, golf clubs in tow, he was asked where he was going to be on Saturday.
Biden replied, “Here” and pointed down to his driveway.
As he pulled out of the driveway in the driver’s seat of his car he then said to the press gathered near his gate, “You guys have better things to do. I’m not the guy.”
Oh, now that is interesting. So, that’s one more who doesn’t want to be associated with the messiah… Good for him!
HA just noticed, you forgot to draw their mouths.
I didn’t forget–they just can’t talk. : )
Why can’t they talk?
Being censored…?
Voices being silenced.
Right, Kat in Your Hat.
They have been silenced.
Pat I had to look at it twice.
I fear ther will real people being framed by it with in the week.
Such is Whoville these days.
will BE real people (errr
)
What are the Repubs getting ready for their demonstrators? Ok, here’s the poll.
More arrested at the Dem convention?
More arrested at the Repub convention?
Winner gets dinner with Bush.
Good cartoon Pat, with a very real image of
how the Patriot Act has shread us of our basic
American rights.
My local radio host made a comment yesterday that said so much in so few words.
“Our forefathers left England to escape a king…..”
I should have added that it was a liberal radio host (in the latte liberal Seattle market).
If even one single Puma is mistreated, harmed, or has their rights infringed upon, it will be on hundreds of blogs, and broadcast on national television.
If there is some massive effort to stop Puma, and or puma’s friends who will also be in groups at Denver, they will regret it.
They better watch it.
Like the “hundreds” that showed up at the PUMA “convention”? Will you be riding a PUMA bus to Denver?
They can’t afford busses, because PUMA is a joke.

You pathethic man!
Stop the hate~
HI KAt,
Seriously, Since there has been no information released as to the weapons that may or may not be used in a situation of large groups protesting, anyone with a heart condition, (pacemaker) or has epilepsy, needs to be very careful, tasers will cause further harm to anyone with these medical conditions.
Here are some pieces of information to pass around: from the Denver Police Department Manual
denvergov.org/Portals/326/documents/104.pdf
104.02 Female Suspects and Prisoners

I hereby inform all persons assembled that you are in violation of (City or State Regulation - violated in general terms).” “In the name of the people of the City and County of Denver, I command all of you here assembled, to disperse. Failure to do so shall subject each of you here to arrest and prosecution.” (Deliver this general message, but it is not necessary to be verbatim.)

(4) Officers rendering emergency assistance should use care not to aggravate the injury.
(5) Arresting officers, upon taking a person into custody, have the duty to exercise reasonable care for the prisoner’s health and safety.
I feel that Hillery supporters will be told to shut up, if they don’t I think they will be taken out, I mean out the door. As for the NG I think they anticipate some kind of Black Panther presence.
and I’ve heard anarchist presence. they always shake things up.
LOL
where’s the anarchist headquarters?
A razor sharp cartoon. Good job.
I guess this topic isn’t one to joke about?

Military Intelligence and National Guard present at Denver DNC
by E. Rosa- Colorado Independent
Wednesday Jul 30th, 2008 5:57 PM
The Colorado Army National Guard is expected to transform a private Denver university campus into a restricted military lodging area during the Democratic National Convention in August.
More than 400 soldiers could be stationed in official capacity on the campus according to the National Guard, but the Guard is not disclosing what the troops will be doing during the convention.
The Rocky Mountain News
http://tinyurl.com/66jp2s
I think many of us are apprehensive about the convention and the potential for disruptive behavior and consequences for protesters. Before we get too carried away about the potential for catastrophic events, it might be good to check out the detailed plans for the convention and security issues at the link below including the questions and answers section. This may be helpful especially to those who plan to attend the convention or be in the immediate vicinity:
http://www.cudenver.edu/Who%20Am%20I/Faculty%20and%20Staff/Network/Pages/FAQforDemocraticNationalConvention.aspx
Thanks Pat…You have real talent!
Maybe all the adoring delegates of the “O” should get a tour of this kennel!
Another “stellar” event marking this primary!
You know what, there has been a serious overreaction to this whole Denver Convention. I do not think anything will be so crazy out of order that the media needs to constantly try to warn protestors that the National Guard will be there, and Gitmo, and on and on, tanks, etc.
Gimme a break. It’s like the media is trying to force people to not protest when it is a right and many people have permits anyway.
Sure, there are some loud and scary looking people, (like those anarchist guys! lol) and I bet there will be SOME who just want to cause havoc, but c’mon already with the threats: DENVER, Media, Obama-Media, Obama-DNC.
Try to sell Denver as something NICE, not something out of 1984.
All the scarey types are the Obama thugs who will be making sure they get to remain “happy”. I have thought from the start that the cages are to lock out (and away) the Hillary supporters from where the action is. Unless we have protestors inside the convention hall (delegates), demanding rights for all there including an open convention that is not just symbolic, nothing will happen except what Bo and the DNC want. It will then look like the happy, party unity they are trying to achieve, but nothing could be further from the truth.
I think the “cages” are just another symbolic gesture by Obama and his cohorts to try to scare protestors. Unless people are acting violently I don’t think people are going to be drug away for no reason. If you’re not breaking the law and protesting peacefully then there is nothing to worry about. It’s just a mind game by Obama…he and his campaign play them well. By all means, all those able, go and show your support for Democracy. Do you realize how much Obama and the DNC don’t want to see on the news that their “chosen” candidate is being protested and Democrats aren’t unifying?? LOL…I can hardly wait to see it!
Imagine, the RNC commercials of Democrats caged….my my, really bad public relations team.
Obama has Farakahn people in the mix as both body guards, asassins, and thugs that intimidate people.
Wow Spanky, you are quite the NQ standard bearer. Feeling proud everyone? Look at the company you keep. Oh well, water seeks its own level….
Jim Shut the crap-up! Like where is your concern with all the intimdation going on, on the internet? With threats, and name calling, blog sites being shuted down. People’s home addresses being exposed. For the cause of the Phony One” You hypocrite!
You think you “crakin but you may be factin.” I would not put it pass them to show up.
It’s standard practice to have several moles within the protesting groups to gather information, identify leaders, and spot for command post. See ya there… three more days till the little red truck pulls out..
Maybe it gives the online freaks an open venue to act out their anger on non-obama supporters. It isn’t like this is a new upset between the groups.
At least these detention centers are not infested with rats. Did Rezko receive the contract to build these facilities in Denver?
I think they are importing rats from China.
The caucus intimidators and terminators were of Farakahn gang
Excellent image of things to come, Pat. What is “The One’s” flock afraid of?
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT; IF YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT, WE HAVE A NICE PRIVATE CAGE WITH ALL THE COMFORTS OF THE BRAVE NEW OBAMANATION–ONCE REFERRED TO AS THE USA WITH VISITATION RIGHTS EXTENDED TO IMMEDIATE FAMILY TWICE A YEAR.
And prisoners will be forced to listen to Reverend Wright, whose sermons will be aired in a continuous loop.
NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO the humanity!!!!
To be honest I maybe we should let Obama get the nomination. I just read on Sweetness and Light that Obama now says he will have his AG look into “possible crimes” in the Bush white house. i’m not going to lie, obama and his followers have gotten on my nerve so much I want to see them vivisect him while he’s still alive. So whether he wins the nom or not I’m going to enjoy the post convention coverage. The only problem is that obama’s nomination could successfully kill our party. There’s’ no way in heck anyone will vote democratic again when they find out how much party leaders are letting this man get away with. Every single thing negative I have heard about them has turned out to be at least 95% true and they are still letting him run. It’s gonna be ugly.
You’re so right. I was telling a friend of mine that, if all of Bobo’s chickens come home to roost if and after he becomes president, people won’t elect another democrat for a thousand years. I guess the DNC is gearing up for a long, dry spell.
Thanks, btintaos, for the best laugh of the week!
“…People won’t elect another democrat for a thousand years.”
Obama should look into his own crimes.
That was Sooo Hannible of ya!

Look what the great Uniter has reduced this party too. That’s some “Uniting” he’s done. He can’t even unite this party, how the hell is he going to unite Republicans with Democrats? Yes, I can see how he’s offering hope and change. Just what this country needs even further division. Why not just throw us into an all out civil war?
Soetoro has created another Zimbabwe, he and his thug followers. Who try to intimidate and name call. Mass rallies of paid, blind supporters screaming for their phony leader.
You have the right to remain silent; if you give up the right to remain silent, we have special little cages designed for your ultimate discomfort.
Perhaps you think we are just trying to discourage dissent….who us? Nah, we just like to keep the streets clean and the riffraff out of sight.
Sincerely, the Bush/Barack coalition
Smile, you are on camera!
What a wreck Obama, the puppet, is. It would be such sweet poetic justice if the puppeteers, Soros, Daley, and the looney-tunes Dean and Pelosi, are completely
blind-sided by the untruths laid on them by Barky and Micky, e.g., that there is no ‘whitey’ tape, and finally realize how much they were deceived when the Republicans finally roll it out…or do they really know about it and flicked it away from their delusionary minds, hell-bent on forcing this sack of shit on the public. It will be so much fun to watch the spin these assholes put on it. I tuly hope it infuriates the distant, untouchables Daley and Soros.
Hey Soetoro–why don’t you go back to INdonesia? They need another dictator there.
I hear there’s an opening in Pakistan
If Biden is Obama’s VP choice, just imagine a VP with more experience than the chosen one. How many delegates did Biden get when he was running? NADA… Good Choice…
What the F..K was Soetoro doing in Pakistan??? Yeah you go to Pakistan during your Sprin Break? Who did he meet while he was over there? Did he visit any other country while he was there?
I thought everyone went to Florida for spring break.
Who would go to Pakistan for spring break?
Wierd, the O man, a wierd cat.
Girls Gone Wild, Karachi!!
He was hoping to get a peek at an elbow or two!
Bambi NEEDS Biden…..He’s scared shitless of Russia….He has NO clue what to do!
Actually, he’s scared shitless of Putin.
Well, what do you expect?
SoetoroObama supports telecom immunity under FISA, continued use of paramilitary such as Blackwater, permanent troops in Iraq (after he was against it), and first-strike capability into sovereign nations like Pakistan. Plus, he refused to stand up for Move-on’s right to free speech in the General Petraeus matter.Why not set up a mini-Gitmo at the
coronationconvention? It is a good way to test out new techniques of social control.Really, what do you expect?
Besides Telecom Immunity, did you know what the FISA law that was passed did?
Looks like Obama’s taking lessons from his ethnic cleansing cousin, Kenyan Prime Minister Railia Odinga. Come to think of it, Odinga ran on hope and change too….
Good Luck America!
Denver may forever be wearing a big red letter G after this convention. It’s not their fault - someone poured kool-aid in the water supply. I think its gonna be a frickin’ disaster so I hope the PUMA’s and others going to stand against the DNC stay safe. Wear goggles and take plenty of bandanas cause I fear its going to be ugly.
This is why I am very concerned about the Democratic Party and their attitude toward women. In California because a women Democrat did not vote with her party for the budget, she was cast out and had to move her office to an island away from the mainland, or the main activity. She was trying to look out for the people who elected her, which is what she was elected to do. If we can not get along with our own party members how are we going to reach across the aisle to get anything done? We need Hillary to create some kind of sanity.

I am ashamed of what my party, the Democratic party has been doing lately. I don’t remember the Republican party doing something like this…. erecting a barbed wire fence to scare and house dissenters.
I haven’t posted on this site for a long time, but I see the lunacy has gotten even worse. Why do you fail to point out that Obama and his campaign have nothing to do with the security the City of Denver is putting in place??? or is this just one more in a long line of “smear Obama at any price” posts?
Oh, but they do. They are working with the DNC.
Anyway, all of this isn’t even about your point.
No need to “smear” Barry/Barak, Suotoro/Obama. He does pretty well all by himself.
So, if you “see” that so clearly, why do you post at all?
Fellow “lunatic?”
Never mind, we know why.
You post because you are frightened and angry. If you were getting your way, and were content, not fearful of your Messiah’s many cockups and plunging poll numbers, you wouldn’t be here, spoiling, like a petulant “pout-raged” child, for a fight.
That’s what frightened, immature people do, see? They lash out when they are cosumed with fear and anxiety. And here you are, doing just that.
Your post ranks a seven point nine on the PUMA FEAR meter.
Be very afraid, little footstomping Honcho. Be very, very afraid!
Went to the county fair tonight and guess what they were passing out at the tractor display before the exhibits. Pretty “Nobama” stickers with a blank or white flag on it. My boyfriend grabbed me the last one in the basket. The guy said the stickers were going like hotcakes. Made my night, that and watching my boyfriends 4.9 year old at his first fair was a joy too. When he saw the rides and and stuff he just stood, looked and shook with excitement.
Nobama!!
I don’t see CRAPPERS in those cages–that’s cruel and unusual, to me.

Wow. This sorry exchange of “ideas” reminds me that we’re a nation of lame-brains incapable of dealing with reality, & we usually get the president we deserve. After 8 years of lies, corruption, secret prisons, extreme renditions, etc, god forbid you bunch of morons should talk about the profound reforms required to turn this mess around, or engage in a constructive dialog about the candidates’ proposals, or which candidate is better equipped to get the job done. No, it’s so much more enlightening to gossip and repeat lies and insults from the echo chamber of online Obama-bashers. Critical thinking is such an overrated concept, who needs it?
To Merman.
We just don’t want problems to continue. Democracy remains a fragile experiment. Most people do not realize that. Discussing the signs that free speech or freedom of association are being limited is perhaps one of the most important issues. Without either, democracy is doomed.
Some of us see WAY too much gradiosity in Obama, and that is a very bad signal. That is how things could unwind further into what happens too often in other countries.
I thought Obama says he likes to listen to many voices to help him make good decisions, so why are so many voices being silenced?
