Behind-The-Scenes Talk * Open Thread
By SusanUnPC on October 23, 2008 at 9:00 PM in Open Thread
OPEN THREAD, with a bonus, the latest McCain/Palin Web ad:
Here’s some behind-the-scenes talk amongst the No Quarter contributors, at least that which we can put in print:
In quick e-mails on a private mailing list, we NoQuarter writers share ideas and help with research. Yesterday, one our very creative contributors wrote this fast note to all the writers:
Just a thought to share…
Obama leading in the polls, advantages in money, favors from the MSM, the populace disdain for Bush, everything is going for BO. It just makes no sense for someone in a commanding lead to resort to fraudulent practices like ACORN’s to gain an unfair (and legally questionable) edge. He should not need it. In fact, any shrewd candidate in his position would shut down ACORN immediately to avoid any implication of impropriety.
Something is just not adding up!
Another writer replied:
Recall that he needed 5x spending over Clinton and still lost primaries. He can’t close the deal and needs every legal and potentially illegal advantage to be competitive and he’ll still likely lose.
It’s just like what a friend told me early last spring, just as Hillary was rising and lambasting him in the KEY battleground states: “If Barack Obama is so transformative and so charismatic, how come he can’t close the deal?”









































Hi…Its Me..Behind the Scenes
Interesting that Obama is throwing himself a HUGE party on election night while McCain is saying he won’t even make an appearance.
Makes me wonder if the results are predetermined……….
That sounds like a hoax “inevitability” rumor.
OMG! Did the “liberal media” get tired of gossiping about Plain’s clothes?
A McCain aide says:
“He’ll speak outdoors on the lawn in front of backlit Camelback mountains — it will be beautiful — and 2000 plus people will be out there with him. The rest of the guests will be in ballrooms and overflow tents with widescreen TV’s.”
marcambinder.theatlantic.com/archives/2008/10/mccain_will_address_supporters.php
The orignal bogus non-story came from ap.
Anyway isn’t there anything else the “liberal media” could focus on? Like issues people care about? We are about to elect the leader of the free world and ap is busy misreporting where mccain will stand on election night. This is the craziest election I have ever seen.
Gee big surprise. I remember what they did to Hillary, those cop surfing mothball fluffers.
I see anything AP and I just can’t even look at it.
That story is so petty it is embarassing.
We’ve had our own share of petty stories, too, but that one is so obvious.
I can’t believe the media talking heads can stand to read the copy, frankly.
It was from Yahoo News…
otherwise known as Yeehah Obama News.
I wouldn’t put too much stock in it.
I think Obama is jinxing himself with more faux Grecian columns. This smacks of his campaign always trying to bully everyone into submission with the SIZE of his events. Invesco Field, concerts, blah blah blah. It goes to his arrogant personality.
Contrast that with McCain’s personality, rather self effacing, humble, hard on himself. He is the last person who would stage some elaborate fete — even if he were 20 pts. ahead. That is not who the man is.
I would not read anything into this whatsoever.
well said; some of us like a little sense of modesty and proportion.
It’s a familiar story, “Old Money” vs. “New Money.”
MAC is appearing :0) he will be greeting supporters on the lawn of the hotel in which his supporters plan to gather in a ballroom
perhaps he thought it inappropriate to plan and execute a GIANT CITY FUNDED party when the CITIES are going BROKE and cutting jobs, especially when NO ONE HAS WON YET
I know I here in his hometown dont think WE should pay for anything right now and MAC surely agrees :0)
Obummer couldnt give a flaying frak about Chicago spending 2 million they dont have on his latest self worshipping bacchanalia
Today (Oct. 23) the Obama campaign has agreed to pay for the cost of holding the election night event in Grant Park. Mayor Daley would have preferred that the event be held at the United Center as it would be easier to contain the crowds and require less police but that one’s campaign has agreed to pay for it. Why not since he has so much money coming in?
We can hope for a blizzard in Chicago on Nov 4.
BTW…
I just donned my bright, shiny, new, copper-lined, silver plated tin-foil hat. Obama went to Hawaii so that, when it’s proven that BO is not a natural-born citizen, he can escape to Indonesia and avoid indictment on charges of fraud and/or being in the country illegally.
You read my mind–and Michelle stays behind.
And she’d be sayin’ “Why’d He” go?
!! That must be the “Whitey” secret!
Ginaswo — I agree. There is an old saying Man Plans and God Laughs.
This is all part of Obama’s inevitablity propaganda. Republicans and PUMA’s don’t vote Obama has this thing locked up. Last time I looked this is being called a toss up–so don’t count your chickens Bambi.
It is very irresponsible of him what he is doing for election night. It proves he is unfit for the presidency. He pretends to ignore how volatile and tinderbox prone the election night will be when the polls are showing a close election. If by any chance the election results are against him that night, the whole place will erupt with uncontrollable violence. His lack of apprehension for that problem shows he is not ready to be President.
Or or or he has an agenda that we will find out about it in due time.
Lark, you are so right. It will be 40 years since the Chicago convention riots in 1968, and this has the potential to make that horrible night look peaceful by comparison. A little quiet humility would be appropriate–NOT THIS!!!
I agree, Lark, but he’s stirred up race relations all along.
He’s shown us just how irresponsible he’s willing to be.
He has that attitude that “Nothing to do with me.”
Very telling.
This is where I DO agree with posters here that his background is shaping his attitude.
It’s a culture of irresponsibility in this regard.
Irresponsible is right. 150 million raised in the month of September alone. How about maybe Obama should spread some of HIS wealth around to give someone else a chance to be successful, you know…a leg up and all. The guy is a FRAUD!
People in Chicago aren’t too crazy about this. “Security experts” are being quoted on the local news about having lots of concerns about this arrangement. Mayor Daley suggested that the “party” be held at the United Center (where the Bulls play), but Michael Jordan’s place wasn’t good enough for BHO. Chicago is in a financial bind, and the buzz today that Obama is gonna be charged for this, as well as Homeland Security picking up some part of the tab. I think he should use his foreign donations to foot the whole bill. Why should Homeland Security come into play here for another self-aggrandizing production when we are at war and in a financial crisis. Oh, I forgot, it is all about the Obamas—our new first family. Maybe we could keep them out of the White House if they get their own reality show….Keeping Up with the Obamas.
He knows the “messiah” meme hurts him but he just cannot help himself. God he is a freak.
I agree, AF……
He knows he’s a joke, but he loves it.
He doesn’t think he’s a joke, he thinks he’s a god. And the MSM, his faithful, the ones he’s cowed into submition, and the rest of the world that send him tributes, have all fed the gaping maw that is his ego. He’s a monster for sure, but the size of this monster is determined by the amount of adulation he receives. Without that fuel he would be reduced to a frightened and disturbed five year old in a man’s body. When more and more insightful people realize this, a cataclysmic course of events might be averted.
“Submission”, sorry, I’m a bit dsylxeci tonight.
I don’t think he knows it, he has no capacity to think how it could affect others. It is utterly irresponsible of him. What else is new?
Of course he knows.
Every ad is filled with that iconic image.
It’s deliberate.
No. It’s called humility.
He can’t completely sell himself because even he has problems with who he is. He has problems with Mama and his identity. He can’t close the deal because he knows inside that he’s a fake.
I’ve been successful in sales and you not only have to connect with your buyer but they need to believe that you aren’t BS’ing them. As Lynn Forrester Rothchild said…”I just don’t trust him.”
I believe you’re onto something. Obama can’t close the deal because of the issue of trust or lack thereof. When caught in a lie, Obama dodges and dances and although he’s very good at it, this pattern is becoming more noticeable.
Do you think so? I sincerely hope more people are noticing what I’ve noticed since January!
That is the bottom line, McAnnie.
With all of his ridiculous advantages as noted in this post, he should be 20 pts ahead, especially after the last 8 years. This race is tied.
And the ad is great by the way.
My father just called me and told me he was listening to Michael Savage tonight …No I am not a fan of Michael Savage but…………
PHILIP BERG IS ON HIS SHOW…
THE BC Story on OBAMA is starting to gather up speed. Savage is a nutjob , but he has a lot of listeners and now maybe the media will start to report on this lawsuit…..
Limbaugh mentioned the birth certificate today too.
Even if the Berg case fails, the American public will at least begin to see that obama has not been vetted, and that indeed, no one knows who he truly is. I pray that it is not too late.
The average American naively believes that there is a process that all candidates have to go through to become POTUS: background check and so forth. If they only knew!
oh i forgot to mention this was an outtake left on the cutting room floor…you can see it when they release this ad on dvd under the extras menu
You crack me up— Thank you. I needed the comic relief.
Second that athena. It is like rule number three;
Dude, that thinking is so pre-1984.
Newspeak, Baby,
BurnNewspeak!None of this adds up! Why does a shoe-in need to spend millions on a prime time informercial days before the election to try and convince even MORE people to turn out for him?
BTW for anyone who has seen Halloween 3 you know where everyone tunes into watch this Halloween give away which really turns out to be a witche’s ploy to kill all those who watch wearing a particular mask…yeah so not saying anything as horrible as THAT may happen to those poor souls who’d actually participate in this last desperate attempt by Obama, but you know…why risk it?
or like SCANNERS where the heads explode
yeah I will pass on Barrys latest Obummerthon of pomposity
I got a better one- ever see They Live? ; we may need special sunglasses.
I love that movie! LOL
So do I-
” I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass… and I’m all out of bubblegum.” LOL, kind of says it all, don’t it?!
How much would you pay to hear McCain or better yet Sarah say that line? LOL!
Oh yeah! I saw that not too long ago and thought this surely must be what’s happening to everyone! Damn where are those sunglasses!?!?!
Of course even if we found the glasses we’d have to fight even harder to get the Obamabots to put them on then the guy did with his friend.
That sequence holds the record for the longest street fight in a movie BTW.
I’d listen to both of them- free of charge. Ohh, fight scene- that was great!
Do you think Roddy Piper is endorsing Obama?
I was hoping it could backfire but now knowing that he will be getting the advise of Oprah and probably other Hollywood first class directors to prepare that production, I doubt it will backfire anymore. I don’t see how with the help of those people. So yes, I am expecting a real cool performance that night. I have too now.
So all my hopes that it would backfire because it would show just too much and too many programs and ideas and become extra complicated are out for me. Oprah is not going to let that happen.
I have to predict a real winner night on that. I am really worried about what McCain can do in a few days to put it down. I personally have the faintest idea. I don’t know but I am worried.
There is no reason to worry. This is Oblahblah’s last attempt to psych out a portion of voters & hope they won’t go to the polls…while at the same time, encourage his supporter to show up.
This is nothing more than a game to him. Don’t believe it. Go vote, keep telling people the truth. Have a little confidence in the American people. We’ll wake up on the 5th and this nightmare will be over.
And then we can start making changes so that this doesn’t happen again in our lifetime.
I read somewhere that Jerome Corsi is either on his way to Hawaii or already there. Anyone have any news on this?
OT, I saw today a lawn campaign sign that said: “Corsi for President”. It looked like a professional sign. Anybody knows anything about it?
Regarding BO’s media advantage: I think the media bias is scaring people. It’s like a window into the future should Obama win, and reminds people of the ole USSR.
Yes, the media is over the top and the American people know it.
Also, I think the reports of gobs of people coming out to vote early will just do more to mobilize McCain supporters to get out and vote also.
These early numbers just say which party the voter is affiliated with and do not reflect the numbers of Dems who are voting, but who are voting for McCain. I know, because I’m one of them. I am purposely staying registered as a Dem until after the election, just for this reason.
me too!!
Me three!
I’m doing the same thing. I’ve kept my Dem affiliation until the day after the election. I started to switch after the Rules and Bylaws fiasco, but decided this would be the biggest gut punch I could deliver to the DNC. Registered Dem voting GOP.
After that, the Dems can kiss my grits!
In Ohio, you declare your affiliation by voting in a primary. So, like it or not, I’m a registered Dem for four more years. (Unless something unusual happens in a local race here that requires a primary, which I’ve never seen happen in my area.)
yup yup – me TOO!!
I am no longer become angry. I think the election seems to go for Obama.
No negative ad or stuffs didn’t stick with him. It is really astonishing .
I don’t think so you need to be angry anymore unless something happens in the next four five days which seems unlikely.
It is really sad. I told you so. People underestimate him. That is the problem. Hillary was much better than McCain to beat OBama but McCain didn’t help himself.
bye bye guys. It is nice to be part of you. I better live my life.
Yes, I’d like to “live my life” too, but I’ve got to do everything I can right now, before Nov. 4th, to make sure that my life in America will be worth living.
McCain/Palin on Nov. 4th
McCain&Palin will win — because I just voted for him.
The polls said Obama had it in the bag on Super Tuesday — but Hillary continued to steam roll over Obama.
McCain will win.
Northwest Rain — Yes McCain will win. Some of my Republican friends are getting worried but I tell them we Dems believe McCain will win and there are millions of us.
I just returned from a trip from LA to Phila.
On the train trip I talked to a lady who was an American Citizen living in Italy. She was going to Chicago to work for backtrack.
When I told her about ayers,rescko,auchi,wright,phleglar,acorn,the wall street money, the donations from the middle east, his vote on fisa. the campaign contribution change. She seemed shocked. I told her while you are in Chicago go see the apartment bldgs that he got federal money for rescko to rehab for the poor.
I explained PUMA to her.
I did not realize that other people were listening. When I was leaving the diner car many people gave me the high sign.
There is a silent wave of people who will not vote for backtrack all across this country.
COUNTRY BEFORE PARTY ALWAYS
PUMAS,BUBBAS, AND THOSE PEOPLE RULE
It’s so true, I have intelligent friends who are floored when I tell them these things. They think I’m bs-ing them but when I give them facts and dates and all that, they are shocked. They don’t watch FOX and don’t blog, how would they know anything aside from what the bs media spoon feds them?
No kidding. I dine with teachers weekly. They are traditionally liberal. Not particularly well-informed.
This year, in CA, it’s hot, hot, hot! to talk politics. Today, the local teacher’s lounge exploded due to Prop 8 in our state. (That’s the proposition to make it a constitutional amendment that marriage is for man and woman only.)
NOBODY who wishes to keep friends is talking politics right now in my crowd. We debated freely during the primaries. Not now.
Everyone is playing it close to the vest, except for the nuts, of course.
Via Con Dios!
lmao! It’s good to see someone from Kenya working on his English writing skills.
Is that you Odingo? You’re on the wrong message board man! You need to go over to KOS and tell them its all over.
I think elections are a lot more about ideas that emerge than about the “winner.” Bush flustered the country, since we’ve never seen someone so willing to lie to the public.
Obama definitely has that capacity. We’ve seen it repeatedly.
However, there’s no question that McCain has sent a very, very stong message.
He may NOT win, but I have a lot of deep optimism.
Not about the birth certificate stories, etc.
I’m optimistic that people were so enthused about a reformer candidate such as Palin. They gave her a real shot, in spite of the mainstream press.
That sends a big message.
This won’t be a blow-out.
(I predict, anyway.)
Actually, the birth certificate story has gotten my attention.
At first, I thought it was a non-issue, but now it’s an issue for me. Mostly because he’s gone to such lengths to cover it up. Why do that?
A one page letter from a doctor saying he’s in good health, yet his campaign demands to see McCain’s records?
This is all too much like Bush. The Bushbots, the lying, the covering up. Like, Bush couldn’t produce something as simple as a DD214. All military people have them. I do. My husband does. And I know how to get copies, since I’ve done that. Bush said they “lost” his. His, and only his. I’ve never known anyone else, since 1974, whose DD214 got lost.
It’s all the covering up, the blatant lying. And then calling the other candidate out for the very thing you’re guilty of. These are nasty tactics, designed to get the person what they want, and I just don’t think they’re in my best interest.
Here’s something that keeps going through my head, about EITHER candidate or BOTH candidates:
Scenario 1:
What if you are a young-ish politician with aspirations to be a senator or governor, and before your career had even gotten off the ground, those around you shoved you into a presidential nomination, and much to everyone’s surprise, you secured a lead and had a better than 50/50 chance of winning–all this at a time when the country is collapsing into probable depression, Iran could realistically drop the bomb within four years, terrorists loom, natural disaster is at an all time high thanx to global warming, etc. etc. What if, shortly before election day–when you are riding in your plane on the way to your next campaign stop that is part of your year-long roller coaster ride that hasn’t stopped for a minute–what if you suddenly get the coldest of feet and realize, my god, what the hell am I doing? Do I actually want to take this on? Am I capable of taking this on? Do I actually want the destiny of the planet in my hands for the next four years when I’ve never even held a full-time job for that long? Do I really want to miss my little girls’ golden childhood years, playing softball with them, teaching them how to ice skate, doing a puzzle with them on a rainy day? As David Byrne once put it: My god! What have I done?
What if that were to happen?
Scenario 2: A 72 year old man realizes that this campaigning for the job he always wanted (and may well deserve) is fully exhausting, is taking years off his life, and he realizes that he may not be physically up for the presidency.
What if that were to happen?
Seriously, couldn’t BOTH of those scenarios be happening right now? Is it really so implausible? Just wanted to throw that concept out there.
Scenario #1: I’d say this one is impossible. BO/MO and whoever is pulling the strings has tasted power and they like it.
Scenario #2: John McCain is, above all, a dedicated public servant. He’s spent his whole life serving his country…this is his last chance to make a really big difference and to give back in a huge way, to leave a permanent legacy. No way he’s quitting.
I think your post is quite poignant. Before I really started to detest Obama, I thought maybe he would be a good VP for Hillary, and then after 8 years of her tutelage, he would be ready to be president. Honestly, I don’t see what his rush has been, and I think that scares me more than anything. Now that I know about all his connections, his own personal “fierce urgency of now” seems so much more sinister. Like there is something more happening beyond a person blinded by his ambition.
I think it is tragic to think that a true hero could possibly be brought down by someone so undeserving.
I’ve given some thought about why Obama HAD to do it this year. He could not afford to wait – he has a very carefully crafted background and a very sketchy record. 8 more years is way too much time allowed for anyone to take a close look at it.
For Obama – it’s now or never.
Hillary was correct – he can’t close the deal. He’s been running for Prescient for 2 years now AND people still don’t know who he is, still don’t trust him. He has black support, the FAR left and they impressionable kids — even with ACORN, I don’t think it’s enough.
We have to have faith in the silent majority and the American people. I heard Hank William Jr in an interview today — he laughed when they asked him about McCain being behind in the polls and said he did not have a single doubt McCain was going to win after being on the campaign trail with McCain/Palin for a couple of weeks.
I agree. I’ve always thought that he decided better to run on no record than on any record, given he’s an AA.
But then that opens him up for just what’s opened up….accusations of secrecy,etc.
He decided that was preferable. He’d play the race card.
He did.
I think his strategy has been played.
I can admire the handiwork, but I don’t think that’s good for the country. We need transparency.
That’s the one glich in his plan.
Right now, we yearn for transparency.
He’s not.
You’re absolutely right.
Ultimately, Obama’s not going to close the deal on November 4th. Most American voters simply don’t trust Obama. And they consider him too inexperienced. Those two reasons alone will finish him on Election Day. All of the other important problems with Obama are considered icing on the cake.
I think the most significant statement about the polls was that all the polls that show Obama way ahead have 9% plus undecided.
That’s awfully high.
tragically my hero Hillary has already been brought down by him (or his string-pullers)
I suspect a lot more is happening here than the rise of a person blinded by ambition. Politicians by their very nature are personally ambitious, but they seldom ascend out of obscurity arcing toward the top like a rocket. Obama is either a focus of converging historical forces or a person chosen by Destiny. Take your pick.
Well, I think it’s pretty simple. We have a vacuum of leadership.
Pelosi, Reid, Dean……the DNC…..wanted a president in their pocket.
Obama was it.
Hillary was a real leader, and they didn’t want to be led.
They want a rubber-stamp guy.
Why? I don’t know that one.
They are complete failures. I honestly can’t fathom the arrogance that they must have to be so confident as to want to skew the power balance.
I can only guess that they are truly enthralled with their own ideas and power.
I’m glad I don’t “get” it.
That kind of arrogance is something that I just think is so heady and so dangerous. I can’t imagine dying, honestly, and knowing that I’d afected that many people’s real lives negatively.
Soros.
You’re all missing the key, because you’re not following the money.
Several excellent observations here (Ann in Ca for one, I think) about the mask finally coming off the MSM…because they’ve gotten just too damn blatant.
Well, it’s the same with the blind ‘liberal’ dogma that government is ‘benign’.
No, it’s NOT benign…it is INHERENTLY open to corruption and use.
Put the two together….huge-gov and massive MSM propaganda-machine; both FOR HIRE….and what do you have?
An opportunity for a group of really filthy rich and connected sociopaths to wrap up control of EVERYTHING.
What is their plan, their desire, their endgame?
All you have to do is list the PC-crap most hyped by their propaganda-arm over the past 30-40 years…
- UN is good
- land/water control
- concentration of power in govs and many layers above citizens
- individualism ‘bad’
- kneejerk groupthink (enormous pressure to follow every PC-fad like a cause-junkie)
- nationalization of private property
(who now holds the mortgages on 6 trillion of US homes?)
- nationalization of all banks
- total disarmament of all citizens.
- control of all information flows
- total surveillance society
Think analytically and you can add a few more yourselves.
The sum total, their endgame, is this:
A worldwide totalitarian welfare/police state
90% serfs, 9% nasty bureaucrats, 1% elite
I’m a libertarian, but I’m really pissed at friends who’re insisting on voting 3rd party again this round.
NOT a good plan…not this time.
Anyway, Soros, Sandler, Buffet, Gates, Auchi, et al…is what this is all about. Obama’s nothing but a front-man for that gang.
McCains a piss-poor candidate…grade-F on guns, immigration, etc…
But Obama’s a TERRIBLE candidate; the forces he represents…the SCOTUS justices he’ll appoint. The bills that his steamroller 1-party gov will slam into place week after week.
Frickin’ nightmare is what we’re talking about here.
Anyone voting 3rd party in the prez-race, or still ‘undecided’, is out of their mind.
ps: go PUMA’s !
UFB impressive movement and people in it. Takes BALLS to stick up for principles, recognize past zombieness, publicly -acknowledge- having been duped…man, the sheer -courage- brings tears to my eyes; let alone the high-test action instead of just moaning about things.
Impressive as hell.
Susan K,
Scenario #1 is an interesting thought, and any sane person in Obama’s position would naturally have second thoughts, but Obama is not sane. Gods do not second guess themselves.
The reason he is willing to spend a fortune on his campaign and victory party is not because he will have won the Presidency, but because he is trying to get EVERYONE to love him. He won’t ever be satisfied if only 51% of the people support him, it will eat him up when he ponders why 49% don’t love him. He mentions Hannity frequently because it deeply bothers him that there is someone out there that doesn’t love him. In his interview with O’Rielly, he behaved like the little boy that he is inside, and made every effort to get Bill to love him. I feel sorry for Obama because he was abandoned by his father, and then his mother, and he will forever try to compensate for that loss, but what he really needs is therapy, not the Presidency.
I guess the ad is racist because there’s no black person in it….snark….
It is a good ad, but I wish it DID have a black person in it!!
Well, these clips were used because these are the people who submitted their own vids into the McCain site. Which anyone can do. I checked it out, and there weren’t any with a black person that had been submitted yet. So be sure to spread the word to people you know and encourage them to send in their vids!
Ooops I take that back there WAS one video I did see which had a bunch of people holding an “I am Joe the plumber” sign and at least one of them was black. A woman.
There’s another McCain ad similar to this one with an AA in it. The comments on the blog that the video was on referred to the AA as a token. It’s a lose lose situation.
I’m still a registered Dem for the same reason. I would imagine that there’s a lot more of us.
Oh yeah, I’m definately staying registered as a Dem. I want my party back!
Tinfoil hat on:
I’m getting the feeling The Precious’ campaign is unraveling. This Hawaii trip is bizarre. A man hated by the left, Powell, endorses him. The Biden and Murtha gaffs are peculiar. The Precious has been hurling boulders from a glass house for way too long. Something big is about to give!
There’s something about his past, or his family, that he’s covering up. Otherwise, why not just show his bloody birth certificate (the real one) and have done it? Why pay a bunch of lawyers to fight it?
That Martin guy makes a bombshell announcement about barry being Frank Marshall Davis’ kid, but gives no info as to who told him this. Whatever Barry is hiding will come out eventually…I just wish it would hurry up!
I just think it’s the usual dysfunctional family stuff.
It doesn’t make good ad copy.
Troll is out again!!!!
trying to re-frame the discussion and push it off the subject of Obama’s very shady background.
From your lips, Galt!
Ditto that.
Yes, EVERYTHING is so bizarre…something’s got to give…I just hope and pray it wont’ be America.
My hope is that BO will bypass Hawaii and fly to Indonesia, never to return to American soil.
Crap I’m beginning to think he is from Mars.
I overheard some co-workers talking about Nobama being an alien and that the mole by his nose is the transmitter!
LMAO
Well, I think his Hawaii trip is strictly about his grandmother.
It’s a blip.
But I think the 2 polls showing huge tightening still make this a horserace. It’s politically easy for him to try to slow down the rhetoric and the spin right now.
I’m pleased someone brought this up- all my colleagues are wondering the same thing; something stinks- big time. We watch the markets and we just can’t seem to put a finger on a pulse; if one observes FBN on a daily basis, you’d know that most business experts and economists are stating that Obama’s plans are a disaster.
Hey y’all,
Look at this…the venerable Gallup reports that, even with all the hoopla about nobama registering so many new voters, that the percentage of new voters (voting for the 1st time) in this election is no different than 2004:
http://www.gallup.com/poll/111331/No-Increase-Proportion-First-Time-Voters.aspx
Big surprise, it was all smoke and mirrors. DNC you guys are farking idiots.
The difference this time is that the vast majority of them are voting for Obama:
http://www.gallup.com/video/111322/Majority-FirstTime-Voters-Plan-Vote-Obama.aspx
I remember the polls in the primaries, The Precious under-polled before and in the exit polls.
November 4 is the only poll that matters, and contrary to the wishful thinking of trolls there are millions of PUMAs and they won’t be voting for The Precious. If things were in the bag for The Precious there would be no trolls here.
The exit polls showed Kerry winning in 2004. Y’all remember that and the loons were dancing in the streets only to find out we had 4 more yrs of Bush.
I think you mean he over-polled.
There are millions of PUMA”s that don’t even know they are PUMA’s who are not voting for Barky.
I’m in California and I remember all the pollsters saying that the young would go for Obama. Hillary won even that demographic in California (the only demographic that she lost was AAs). I agree that most new voters will support Obama, but let’s not overstate how large that percentage will be.
Didn’t Donna Brazile say they don’t need all us old bitter white Hillary supporters because so many new Democrats were registering to vote?
speaking of our beloved Donna…a lady told me that when she attended the RBC, she and her friends (Hillary supporters) saw Donna in a hotel lobby. They boo’ed her. Her response was: I set you all free. I set you all free. They were scratching their heads thinking WTF? They didn’t understand what her answer meant. I told the lady that told me this story that what she probably meant was that “the base” is free to vote for McCain. Don’t have to tell me twice!
Anybody know when Rolling Stone magazine became a Democratic Political Magazine?
I thought it was a Music Mag but I have seen about six or seven covers about the Election…there is yet another cover of Obama out right now. The picture is absolutely horrible.
Coming up on Greta: CNN admits that they distorted that National Review quote in Griffin’s interview with Palin. Hmmm…should be interesting. See? Protest does get through sometimes.
Its about time. I’d say they are a day late & a dollar short as far re-establishing any credibility they might have once had.

Obama Was a New Party Member as Recently as 1996 [PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE]

Send to media.Socialism is not an unfair label thrown about when the person is a card carrying member of the party.
So is this site mostly for Republicans?
Jake.
If you are an obama troll go here: Dailykos.com
otherwise, it doesn’t matter what your affiliation all are welcome.
This is a pro hillary site.
As soon as the election is over we will be sending her to koolaid detox clinic.
This is a pro-Hillary site? I don’t see anything about Hillary here. Huh? None of the posts are about Hillary that I can see.
Here is a comment about Hillary: We wanted Hillary to get the nomination. Obama stole the nomination from her. We still love Hillary, or at least I do. Now we are voting for McCain.
Jake. Please try to be less obvious when you troll for obama.
We are all very good at spotting paid obot blog trolls.
buh bye now.
As soon as the election is over we will be sending her to koolaid detox clinic.
LOL! Jakey is playing “what? I don’t see any pro Hillary comments?” If it talks like a troll, sounds like a troll, then it probably is a troll.
Right now, I think we’re mad at her.
We’ll surely get over it.
I’m an INDEPENDENT AMERICAN! I think for myself!
I have a lot more in common with the Republican party direction this year, for sure.
Whether it comes to fruition? Time will tell.
I’m sure more enthused by their openness, lack of overt ageism, sexism, and policy direction.
I do not agree with Pelosi and Reid on much at all, to be honest.
My dh and I are pro Hillary. He is a moderate Dem & I am a moderate Repub.
Are votes aren’t for McCain/Palin, they are against the corrupted Obama.
I actually have moved to being FOR McCain. I believe his promises.
I have always felt that elections where I actually paid close attention (often, I just voted straight Dem), it always comes down to trust.
I do trust McCain.
I think he knows the need for reform.
I think his promise to do so is sincere.
And frankly his age helps. He’s got nothing to lose by doing just that.
Boy, we need reformation.
Yeah, I typed a little too quickly. I trust McCain. I trust Palin. There is just a couple issues that still have the ick factor for me. First, I don’t think we should be heading more towards nuclear power. I prefer wind and solar. I really believe that we should develop energies that are natural or renewable with NO toxic leftover byproducts.
Also, I still have an issue with any federal judges he selects. Specifically because I believe that the Constition should be somewhat fluid. I believe in keeping a close interpretation; but there are times when you have to be realistic and fair. So, I prefer more moderate Justices. I just don’t know how McCain will select them. On one hand he is moderate; on the other, he has to appease a conservative base; but on the 3rd hand (yeah, I’m really an octopus-lol), his behavior during this election shows me that he will do just about anything to NOT further divide this country.
Anyway, I guess my point is I’m happy to vote for McCain. But if it had been Hillary running, I would have voted for her.
And Independents – which I am.
But thanks for the compliment!
Ayers and Weather Underground wanted to kill 25 million Americans.
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2008/10/eliminating_25_million_america.html
But hey, what’s the problem? You don’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs after all. Joseph Stalin certainly didn’t seem to have any qualms.
How many people did Marxists kill in the 20th Century in their quest to eliminate “inequality”? Was it 100 million or 110 million? I can never remember.
And the Khmer Rouge did that too in Cambodia – dramatized in the movie “Killing Fields”.
OMFG!!!
BREAKING!!!!
CBS/NYT POLL!!!!
OBAMA HAS A 13 POINT LEAD!!!!
52 to 39!!!!
WOWIEE!!!!
Respondents………….UnWeighted / Weighted
Registered voters……………….1046……..1010
Registered – Republicans…..326……….287
Registered – Democrats…….391……….411
Registered – Independents……..329……….312
*Effective Likely Voters 771
Results are adjusted with 30% Weight factor favoring Democrats over Republicans:
(287/411)*100 = 70%
Or if you flip the calc, The weighting implies that they are sampling each democrat respondent at 143% the value of each republican respondent.
(411/287)*100 = 143%
Independents once again outnumber Republicans but still have been unable to secure National Coverage of the Mysterious Never seen Independent Party Convention.
So oversample independents and then unfairly weight the results…
…And all these hacks can come up with is a 13 point advantage?
Unbelievable. I expected more per gram hack from the
uncut crackHopium they are smoking.Are you kidding me? The incompetance on display is unacceptable! Do we have to get Keith Olbermann and Chris Mathews to crunch the numbers next time?
Don’t even get me started on how they magically come up with the 771 likely voters.
SOMEBODY IS GONNA HAVE SOME ‘SPLAININ TO DO IF OBAMA DON’T WIN AND AMERICA IS FULL OF RACISTS AINT GONNA CUT THE CUBAN SANDWICH LUCY!
That is CRAZY!
yeah…they should probably stop polling their internal staff for the poll results.
Breaking sometime this next year!
NYT goes BANKRUPT!!!
Haha! God, I hope they get what’s coming to them! I used to read that rag daily…for years. During the summer, I just gave up on them. They are a messed up, hateful, spiteful group of barry worshippers.
Moody’s downgraded NYT (stock) to junk status…but then we all knew that a loooong time ago!
LOL!!!
From your keyboard to God’s eyes…..
Doesn’t sound right but all the polls are doing it.
That cbs poll used about 28% repubs and 40% dems. I keep saying I know bush destroyed the repub party but those numbers just don’t add up.
they are oversampling democrats because of dead voters.
While its true that dead voters never answer the phone and respond to polling surveys, it is a well known fact that they also never register as republicans.
Lets just call that dead weighting.
This poll suggests Obama is losing. Here’s how:
If we assume in this poll that Republicans would vote for McCain and Democrats for Obama, then according to the skew they are presenting, the percent saying they will vote for McCain should only be 70% of the total saying they will vote for Obama. However, the total saying they will vote for McCain is 75% of the total saying they will vote for Obama. This suggests that very large numbers of Democrats are voting for McCain compared to very small numbers of Republicans voting for Obama. And if you unweight the numbers to even out Democrats and Republicans, then (cancelling out the republicans voting for obama with an equal number of the democrats voting for mccain — which would still leave some democrats voting for McCain based on my earlier analysis of the percentages) you end up with a lead for McCain. So essentially, this poll that supposedly shows a 13-point lead for Obama actually shows a lead for McCain when the artificial skew is removed.
Did you notice ….9% undecided?
That many, still?
Hmmmmm*
Those are the Republicans who said they were voting for Palin.
HAHAHAHA! “Hopium”!!! That’s great!
What is with all this spending on Obama’s part.
We are a broke nation and this is his campaign cry…help out all the people going broke.
Yet he is spending money like there is no tomorrow.
Also I am very worried about some people seeing charges on their cards that they never cleared for Obama donations.
BO is spending money like it grows on trees. Over $600 million campaigning. How can anyone believe that he will be responsible with taxpayer money?
There is absolutely no way he will be able to deliver on any of his promises.
BTW-Can anyone tell me the income range of the Middle Class? At what income level does one become Rich?
$250,000 for a family of 4 seems comfortable, but not rich.
Rich is just a word, isn’t it? In 2007, for the U.S. as a whole, the median household income for a family of 4 was $48,451. State by state, the highest median income was in Maryland, at $65,144 for a family of 4; the lowest figure, $34,473, was for Mississippi.

OBAMA PATRIOTISM
This is one of the most dispiriting things I have ever seen in an election for the highest office of our country. Not only should this man be relieved of his duties as a Senator but should never never be considered for this high office. Please pass this on to some of your Democratic friends to see their take on it!
The following is a narrative taken from Sunday Morning’s televised ‘Meet The Press’ and the author is employed by none other than the Washington Post!!
From Sunday’s Televised ‘Meet the Press’ Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag. Obama Explains National Anthem Stance Sun, 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, General Bill Ginn’ USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain why he doesn’t follow protocol when the National Anthem is played. The General also stated to the Senator that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171… During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. At the very least, ‘Stand and Face It’
Senator Obama Live on Sunday stated:
‘As I’ve said about the flag pin, I don’t want to be perceived as taking sides, Obama said. ‘There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song ‘I’d Like To Teach the World To Sing.’ If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.’We should consider to reinvent our National Anthem as well as to redesign our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It’s my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we as a Nation of warring people, should conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam, whereas peace prevails. Perhaps a state or period of mutual concord between our governments. When I become President, I will seek a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation have placed upon the nations of Islam an unfair injustice. My wife disrespects the Flag for many personal reasons. Together she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past, many years ago. She has her views and I have mine’. Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put aside my hatred. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path of hope. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country’s First Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America.’
WHAAAAAAAT the Hell !!!
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you heard it right. This could possibly be our next President.
I, for one, am speechless.
Dale Lindsborg,
Sowsear — Oh My God — So we should apologize to Muslim nations. Is this while we are at war with them or after? And how about our friend in the Middle East Israel? When Jesse Jackson said that we need to apologize to the muslim nations Obama distanced himself from those remarks. However, we are now supposed to kiss up to the very nations who hate us and have killed so many Americans and Israelis. What a dangerous ass hole this man is! If you don’t respect our flag or our National Anthem then you don’t deserve to be the President of this great country. So Obama and Michelle went to flag burnings–they must really hate everything we stand for.
Well McCain and Palin love this country and this erstwhile Democrat loves them for it.
Oh, my Gosh! Is this for real?
I did read this earlier this week (elsewhere) but thought it was either a hoax or parody.
Last week, I realized that, although I don’t support McCain strongly (love Sarah—you betcha!), I do basically trust McCain. Obama is the worst political liar I can think of. This week I realized why he makes me feel so uneasy. When I listen to his ideas, speaking style, etc., something doesn’t jive at the subconscious level (and my tinfoil hat starts buzzing). There’s a (oh, I don’t know)…cultural discordance. “Ya folla?”
Can we have a link please? This should be backed up.
Is this real? Why is this not being discussed on FOX?
I heard BO say the second paragraph. Can’t attest to the first paragraph. The comment above is “rhetorically flourished”!
“Meet the Press”, Sun. 07 Sept.2008
Gen. Bill Ginn, USAF (ret), asked Obama to explain why he doesn’t follow protocol when the National Anthem is played. The General also reminded the Senator that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171 …During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present, except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart.

Sen. Obama said, “As I’ve said about the flag pin, I don’t want to be perceived as taking sides. There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression.

Not real, it’s a parody.
OHitler is Mr. Spendy Bling. The America Sucks World Tour, the 100 Million Dollar Toga Party at Mile High, etc. He’s nothing but a kid in a candy store spending a Billion Dollars, MINIMUM to blow smoke up his own azz. Now, he plans to spend Trillions of OUR money and “spread our wealth” to the people he REALLY likes – Africa. What kind of a nutjob would vote for this freak, really?
Wow…Obama is Hitler?

Such a big mouth and foul at that. How’s that suppose to get people revved up to vote for “the one”. Not me, if anything it’s people like you who make me not want anything to do with Obama. Total trash!!

Its amazing, we finally found out who the real racists bigots sexists and assholes are in this country.
I just never imaging so many of them had been hiding under the party label of Democrat!
Now that we know who they are, the clean up will be much easier come november 5
You have too much faith in all of the electorate. Will enough vote against him? I think so.
There are brain dead sheep on both sides eager to jump over the cliff for a Bush or an Obama. Us moderates in the middle get farked in the process.
I just joined Teamsarah last night. Go Sarah!
McCain is going to win — I really believe that. Sometimes it comes down to who looks more Presidential and McCain does. Obama can brag about spending 2 Million on a Victory Party because he can’t bear after 2 years of running that he can and will lose.
McCain for sanity.
Erm…you guys are missing the story.
The 2 million is what the City of Chicago is charging Obama for their services including use of the park and security etc for the event.
The 2 Million is only part of the bill, the part from Mayor Daley.
The Obama campaign has not disclosed yet
how much they are actually spending on:
bunting
props
columns
platforms
fireworks
lobster dinners
caviar
balloons
keepsakes
noisemakers
pompoms
cans of kerosene & matches (just incase)
bon bons
video screens
seating
Tents
Lighting
Speakers
Cables
and
the dress for Michelle which is to be designed by Bob Mackie, the designer to the Love Boat Sequine Loving Has Been Gueststars and the New York Drag Personality Elite.
However, I hear Bob Villa the Builder has offered to send his Mortar and Tile Guy to do Michelle’s Makeup for free.
Gosh, I’m saving this one to share with my family. Vintage Jeremiah!!! ROFL!
How much will he be paying Bill Ayers for a special appearance?
I have a sneaking suspicion that Bernardine Dhorn and Bill Ayers will be dispatched to Phoenix on election night…just in case.
The victory party planning is disgusting. Not a single vote has been counted, yet so many people are calling this race over. Only a small portion of votes have been cast, but I just want to shout it: not a single actual vote has been counted yet.
This is the same strategy the O campaign used in the primaries: game the system to exploit the weaknesses in it (ie caucuses in the primaries and voter registration in the general) and claim victory before the race is over. Only this time the American people don’t have to roll over and take it because of a corrupt DNC. And this time votes will actually count, state by state, vote by vote.
bern2008–Obama needs to tell himself that he is going to win because to believe that he has sold his soul for nothing — when he had such lofty dreams of destroying everything this country stands for would be too much for him to take.
So true. There are so many examples of his complete and unmatched arrogance. A true egocentric personality.
I too believe the only America he and his bitter wife love is the America that they want to change it into.
Dear Hawaii, Senator Obama is there. Can you keep him?
Fear not. It’ll be an Obama concession party on November 5th.
I agree. McCain will win. There’s no Super Delegates to help O-man’s sorry behind over the line. Sorry Barry, sometimes you actually have to earn votes.
I have that same feeling McPalin Hill. I just can’t believe that Nobama could snatch up the presidency. Furthermore, those polls are laughable. The CBS/NYT poll that was just released is meant to screw up the real clear politics poll averages. Everytime a poll comes out, like today’s IBD, with good news for McCain, another poll feels compelled to release a ridiculous poll to distort the numbers. The same thing happened yesterday when the AP released a favorable poll for McCain and then the Reuters people released a ridiculous poll. It is all a scam.
Andrew — I hear you. Obama is desperate. He is going on about McCain taking Senior’s Social Security and Medicare. You only say that when you are desperate for the Senior vote. A funny thing happened after trashing the Democratic base. Suddenly the Dems and Obama find they need us after all. Too late. It is my gut belief that Obama wants the Presidency for all the wrong reasons–he is using the Presidency to showcase his own greatness. The American people are hurting and they need a president who is of the people. Joe the President McCain is what we need right now.
I think they always knew they needed us – they just intended it to be on their terms. Meaning, they insult, cheat, denigrate and dismiss us until we come running back to them, tails between our legs – after all, Roe v. Wade! Roe v. Wade! And us, with such meager talents and such huge self-esteem issues…tsk tsk tsk…
Well, here we come, Donna, barky, coward dean – NOT! NOT EVER!
Party.Unity.My.Ass!
Did you read the funny editorial on RCP today bout the young fellow who woke up in a nightmare. He showed up to vote, and it was all gray-haired people. *haha
it’s getting late…the trolls are coming out from under their moldy rocks and preparing to party all night blogging for minimum wage. Wait till they wake up and find out they’ve all been drafted by Dear Leader into his new army.
You’re in the army now…
He can be 50 points down…. I am going to vote for the ticket still… The liberal media can’t control us with there stupid polls.
The “liberal media” is cherry picking obama polls. gallop is tightening, Diageo/Hotline Tracking Poll within margin of error, Associated Press-GfK poll is within one point. And there is more. The oborg aren’t gonna mention those.
Here’s what is nice. It doesn’t matter this time. The SD’s might have been persuaded by polling crud, but the voting public isn’t.
We always know when McCain is doing well — lots of trolls appear.
Admin: Troll with leaky diaper in isle 5!
F**kyou is out assaulting some teenager at an ATM machine and carving a “B” in her face. Obama told him to “get in our faces.”
OMG. Who would have thunk it? That is an exact match. You have to send that to Fox and Friends for the morning show or to O’Reilly or someone. That needs to be understood exactly that way. There is no other explanation.
I read somewhere else they were saying she did it to herself because it was cut backward? Or, maybe the “bot” is dyslexic. Or maybe he was on her from the top?
Obama is a Fraud — I heard about that today. Is this what’s going to happen to those of us who think differently than Obama the Great? He could have come out against this type of attack. But no–instead he and his mob is threatening riots if he doesn’t win.
That poor, dear young woman. Maybe a plastic surgeon will step forward and offer to do reconstructive surgery pro bono so she doesn’t have a permanent scar.
I’m not quite sure I buy this story yet. I’m waiting to hear the details.
At an ATM? He takes time to carve a letter? What did she do, stand there and hold the mirror?
“McCain for Sanity”
that would make a fabulous t shirt.
This is a must see/hear… Barry’s socialist views brought into focus.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7fi8STNlxM
Notice he speaks in a much higher pitch now – compared to 1995 in that video. 13 years later, as a middled-aged man, his voice should be even deeper? Yes? Is he trying to sound younger or …?
kinthenorthwest,
Please go here and read why Mr. Oblahblah is raising so much money. It will make the hair on your arms stand up. It is lengthy and you will have to follow links, but it is eye opening. Will have to copy and paste. Am not sure how to link.

In responding to a comment someone made on the blog which recently scrubbed a reference to Obama’s party in Ayer’s living room, I ended up having to do a little research on the kind of “social justice” educational agenda that Obama willingly collaborated with Ayers on.
I knew that there had been an article in the New York Post last year about a “social justice” high school here in NYC, so I found it.
http://www.nypost.com/seven/03202007/postopinion/opedcolumnists/math_and_marxism_opedcolumnists_sol_stern.htm
Lo and behold, it turns out that a so-called “expert” at a math conference they held (about how to use math to teach Marxism) was none other than one Cathy Wilkerson, an ex member of the Weather Underground alongside Ayers and who was helping to construct the bomb which exploded in the West Village townhouse killing 3 of her terrorist pals.
I really think that this aspect of Obama’s relationship with Ayers should be hammered home. Because we’re letting the pro-Obama camp get away with claiming that that relationship was no more than serving on a board which aimed to improve education. Well, the above article shows us what kind of “improvements” that Obama and his Marxist pal Ayers were likely working on. Another of Ayers terrorist friends is actively involved in this brainwashing of children too.
But it just gets worse! ACORN have a school in Brooklyn too – the “ACORN School for Social Justice.”
And wouldn’t you know, it’s been slammed for, among other things, turning a blind eye to gang recruitment and having (unsurprisingly) low academic standards.

It’s about time the lid was blown on the radical far left-wing lunatics who have access to the minds of our kids. Obama is one of these lunatics.
Obama is setting himself up for the biggest election night shock since Truman beat Dewey. I can’t wait for Nov. 4th. This is going to give the term ’schadenfreude’ new meaning.
From your mouth to God’s ear. I’ll be holed up in Oakland eating my popcorn, watching Keith Obamaman’s head explode.
I guess I do know how to link. It worked
Perfectly!
Thanks. I just spent a lot time following the links, and then I sent the info to a few people on my e-mail list.
Obama doesn’t realize how 2 million dollars could help his own people,in his own neighbourhood,in the poorest part of Chicago..All he’s ever thought about is his EGO,and himself..He’s the most arrogant person,I have ever seen run for President…Starving people,living in Ghetto accomodations,and he’s thinking of himself..Typical Obama,Hope someone proves he’s a fraud,and makes him step down.
Heard Elizabeth from the View ,just endorsed Mccain/Palin,and will be stumping with Sarah in Florida…Sounds like a blast.
Hope Mccain/Palin,,,, Blow him off the Electoral Map
Gosh, I just noticed that the NYT endorsed Obama. What a shocker.
By the way, for a fun read, go to both the Chicago Tribune and Chicago Sun-Times endorsements of Obama and read the COMMENTS sections. Keep in mind that the Tribune is traditionally conservative, and the Sun Times is liberal. While there are plenty of Obamabots commenting, what is so refreshing about it is how many people from Chicago and the surrounding area are canceling their subscriptions because of the endorsements. The people of Chicago are totally calling out their newspapers for kissing Obama’s butt. Many of them say that Obama as president will be like Chicago Machine gone national.

NYT just announced huge losses for this quarter. I don’t suggest it’s related. All of media is suffering.
Betcha Larry’s blog is actually doing better than many of them.
The MSM networks and newspapers have been in the toilet with Obama for quite some time now.
Somebody needs to pull the handle on them already.
Mainstream American voters are on to them now. We are through with them.
McPalin Hill,
I am scared to death. Obama’s voters aren’t always the smartest or most criminally sane American citizens. Obama TOLD them to go out and get in our faces. That will translate to violence against us. Period. As for that B being backwards on that girl’s face, I bet the thug had her on the ground and was writing it from above her. No way she did that to herself. Why? We’re not like THEM. And she looked pretty beaten up too…black eye, etc. Sort of silly to think she did that in a mirror. We’re lucky the idiot Obama thug knew how to write a “B” in the first place.
I just joined team Mccain,ill be making phone calls tomorrow,we need to stand up and fight.
Long live USA
Obama is doing to McCain what he did to Hillary. Acting as if he is already the winner. He figures it worked with Hillary, but we can’t let him win. We have to expose this fraud and help the McCain/Palin ticket.
Yes but she DID win — this time there won’t be Pelosi and Reid arm twisting the cowardly super delegates to give this to him.
I agree, Ani.
This time, it’s all about the vote.
Private, protected.
No SD influence.
And the effort to suppress the vote?
Oh please. This year?
No way.
Actually, it didn’t work with Hillary. Hillary won the popular vote in the end. That’s why Obama, crooked delegates, and the DNC resorted to cheating to get Obama the nomination.
We will continue to fight for McCain and Palin! And we will be victorious on November 5th!
B.O., Inc. has put out so many lies, I believe that something seemingly insignificant will bring down their house of cards…

The full 12-minute Obama interview from 1995 that the above youtube video is taken from is linked below. It is on a website called “Eye on Books”. I can’t believe I haven’t seen/heard this interview anywhere before now. It’s very Wright-like in tone.

Liz,
It absolutely seems authentic. Here as a video interview from the same book tour in which he sounds exactly the same.

Thanks for the link to the video interview,Mchope. How can it be that this is just coming out now? The whole thing is disturbing, especially his spiel about his own “salvation” being tied to our country’s “sacrifices”.
Well, it confirms some of his radical socialist and racial views when he says white executives don’t want to pay taxes for inner city kids, and when he says African Americans have a clean (”sanitized”) view of Africa’s problems being due to suppression by those having power or greed- just like here in America.
These are not hidden comments. The media refuses to tell the public and find the comments by Barack and Michelle Obama that mirror their counterparts in radical society. Ayers, Wright Pfeger, etc, etc
Hear it clearly:
where white folks’ greed runs a world in need,
~Rev Wright
~Barack Obama in Dreams of my Father
Not post racial, but reverse racism
No; he said, pay taxes TO inner city kids…
Here’s a terrific story from RCP, and Larry and No Quarter are even featured.
Fun read…..for any liberal, anyway.

The message in this add is resonating with MOST VOTERS. Keep saying the word socialism that is what gets their attention! IBD Poll says it a one point race and they have cross tabs about the socialism issues. Even most Dems dont like ‘redistribution’. We all need to send a big kiss to Joe the Plumber!
PS. Berg was on Savage Nation today and says he has tape of Obama’s grandmother saying he was born in Kenya and the tape will be available shortly. This is the closest thing to MSM that Berg has managed except for Fox Toledo (small market). Maybe now Rushbo will get with it if for no other reason than he does not want to appear out of the “know”.
let’s see barky call his grama a liar. you know he will.
Another lovely article with revealing Obama quotes posted on Ace (link to freerepublic).
From a 1990 article when Obama was editor of the Harvard Law Review.
“I’m not interested in the suburbs. The suburbs bore me”
“Obama sees the inner cities as the front lines of racism.”

URGENT: Proof Obama was BORN IN KENYA, HEAR THE INTERVIEW HERE:
Former Democrat DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL OF PENNSYLVANIA HAS A RECORDING OF OBAMA’S GRANDMOTHER IN KENYA STATING OBAMA WAS IN FACT BORN IN KENYA and is NOT A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. And one of the reasons Obama will not release his college transcripts.
One of the 3 REQUIREMENTS for becoming a US President IS you must be a natural born citizen and Obama is in FACT NOT.
This DISQUALIFIES OBAMA AS PRESIDENT.
