Spread the Wealth but Concentrate the Blame

A few days ago, NQ posted a story based on audio of an interview Obama gave in 1995. This piece was about race. The now-viral video about redistribution of wealth is from a 2001 interview, and it covers the redistribution of wealth and justice from the perspective of civil rights legislation. We’ve put both here so you can see how they are linked.
From the original post:
Gatewaypundit has a video from Naked Emperor News with some comments from BO back in 1995. Yeah, it’s a few years ago. But he talks about the same thing he mentioned to “Joe the Plumber.” This sounds like the real BO to me - not the sanitized stump speech version. After all, there are no white people who willingly pay taxes for AA children to go to school, are there?
Here’s the audio:
All day yesterday, Memeorandum featured many, many articles about the second video, including one at the National Review.
Read the rest ->
First, the audio from 2001:
The National Review author provided a transcript of the audio and interspersed parts of it with interesting comments. I’m excerpting a few here, but it’s worth the time to read the entire article.
There is nothing vague or ambiguous about [Obama's comments]. Nothing. From the top: “…The Supreme Court never entered into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and sort of more basic issues of political and economic justice in this society. And uh, to that extent, as radical as I think people tried to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical.” If the second highlighted phrase had been there without the first, Obama’s defenders would have bent over backwards trying to spin the meaning of “political and economic justice.” We all know what political and economic justice means, because Barack Obama has already made it crystal clear a second earlier: It means redistribution of wealth. Not the creation of wealth and certainly not the creation of opportunity, but simply taking money from the successful and hard-working and distributing it to those whom the government decides “deserve” it. This redistribution of wealth, he states, “essentially is administrative and takes a lot of time.” It is an administrative task. Not suitable for the courts. More suitable for the chief executive.
Wow. “.. . redistribution of wealth. . . essentially is administrative.” Redistributing the wealth, then, is both a job for the President and is simply a matter for planning? And “not suitable for the courts” certainly suggests one would not have much chance for redress. Are you kidding?
Then he adds this:
Now that’s just garden-variety socialism, which apparently is not a big deal to may voters. So I would appeal to any American who claims to love the Constitution and to revere the Founding Fathers… I will not only appeal to you, I will beg you, as one American citizen to another, to consider this next statement with as much care as you can possibly bring to bear: “And uh, to that extent, as radical as I think people tried to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution — at least as it’s been interpreted, and [the] Warren Court interpreted it in the same way, that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties: [it] says what the states can’t do to you, says what the federal government can’t do to you, but it doesn’t say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf.
To me, when Obama says “[the Warren Court] didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution,” I get the distinct impression he means the court somehow failed in the “breaking free” part. That would mean Obama feels the constraints engineered by the Constitution should be removed or overcome somehow. This is what the NR had to say about that:
The entire purpose of the Constitution was to limit government. That limitation of powers is what has unlocked in America the vast human potential available in any population. Barack Obama sees that limiting of government not as a lynchpin but rather as a fatal flaw: “…One of the, I think, the tragedies of the Civil Rights movement was because the Civil Rights movement became so court-focused, uh, I think that there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributive change. And in some ways we still suffer from that.”
So, the Civil Rights movement, by using the courts to address questions of equality missed out on creating “coalitions of power” that would bring about “redistributive change.” The reason the Civil Rights movement used the courts is because that is what the courts are for - to address such problems in a venue everyone believes has legitimacy and the force of government behind it. Why would community organizing have done any better? How in the world would “redistributive change” have occurred outside the courts? What does he MEAN?
In addition to the author’s comments about Obama’s statements, he notes as well that this video - by Naked Emperor News - was found and reported on by an individual. NOT THE MSM. The 1995 video is also from NEN.
I, do however, blame the press for allowing an individual citizen to do the work that they employ standing armies of so-called professionals for. I know they are capable of this kind of investigative journalism: It only took them a day or two to damage Sarah Palin with wild accusations about her baby’s paternity and less time than that to destroy a man who happened to be playing ball when the Messiah decided to roll up looking for a few more votes on the way to the inevitable coronation. We no longer have an independent, fair, investigative press. That is abundantly clear to everyone — even the press. It is just another of the facts that they refuse to report, because it does not suit them. Remember this, America: The press did not break this story. A single citizen, on the Internet did.
I just did a story on the MSM, noting that it had lost all its integrity. This is just another reason to distrust those providing you “news” on tv and print and radio. At least on the ‘net you can look at multiple sources and are not limited to whatever some editor decides to give air time to.
CBSnews did give some cursory coverage to the story by reporting on a remark by John Boehner.
“As disturbing as Barack Obama’s comments about ‘redistribution of wealth’ are, what’s worse is that seven years later his rhetoric is the same,” Boehner said Monday in a statement.
“Obama still wants to ‘redistribute’ our tax dollars and ‘spread the wealth around,’ giving money to people who don’t pay taxes rather than growing our economy for everybody.”
The Obama campaign immediately pushed back, arguing that the Right is deliberately misinterpreting a narrow legal argument Obama was making about decades-old court cases.
————–
“In this seven year old interview, Senator Obama did not say that the courts should get into the business of redistributing wealth at all.
The Obama campaign is whacking away at a straw man here. I don’t think Obama was arguing the courts should redistribute wealth at all either. He plainly said that was an administrative function for the chief executive.
Of course, this audio also has other implications. By discussing the redistribution of wealth and justice within the context of the civil rights movement, Obama also makes this a racial discussion. His context is clearly about AAs and whites.
Obama has said he is all about trans-racial politics even while his past associations with the likes of Rev. Wright, Father Pfleger and other race salary-men suggest otherwise. To me, this audio is simply more of the same in that sense.
And what about the redistribution of wealth and justice? Obviously Obama feels redistribution needs to happen. That’s not even open to question for him. He also seems to think the President can accomplish such redistribution because it is an “administrative function.” And he says the Constitution, rather than define what government cannot do to citizens, should rather define what it HAS to do for citizens. That’s a very different way of approaching the fundamental outlines of how our country works.
And, the Civil Rights movement missed out by ONLY using the courts to work for justice. ONLY? What venues did the Civil Rights movement miss?
Fundamental questions for a candidate, one would think. Will anyone but the bloggers bother to ask? Given that Obama has provided so little about his beliefs (other than his strong Christian beliefs, but NOT at Trinity, no, that was a 20 year fluke) or about him personally (writings, personal information), something like this audio offers a window into what a President Obama would put on his agenda. Had he bothered to make more information available, this audio might be placed within some bigger context. But he hasn’t. So, this audio is as important as it gets.
Obama is remarkably consistent from at least 1995 to 2001 in how he views the ideas of who owes what to whom. I wonder. In the wake of these audio clips, will people try to convince us BO’s politics have changed or his attitudes? Given that he was at Trinity until last spring, I’d say the only viable thing to say is his (mis)representaitons of his politics and his positions have changed. After all, the BO campaign will do whatever they can get away with, not what is true or even passes the sniff test.

Hi Greta,
A confession from an Obama supporter
sarah p Says:
October 27, 2008 at 5:04 am
Ok, I want to clear my conscious a little. Hopefully you could make a blog post to help some fellow clinton supporters out.
I work for a campaign and can’t wait for this week to be over.
I was doing it for a job. I was not a fan of any candidate but over time grew to love HRC.
The internal campaign idea is to twist, distort, humiliate and finally dispirit you.
We pay people and organize people to go to all the online sites and “play the part of a clinton or mccain supporter who just switched our support for obama”
We do this to stifle your motivation and to destroy your confidence.
We did this the whole primary and it worked.
Sprinkle in mass vote confusion and it becomes bewildering. Most people lose patience and just give up on their support of a candidate and decide to just block out tv, news, websites, etc.
This surprisingly has had a huge suppressing movement and vote turnout issues.
Next, we infiltrate all the blogs and all the youtube videos and overwhelm the voting, the comments, etc. All to continue this appearance of overwhelming world support.
People makes posts to the effect that the world has “gone mad”
Thats the intention. To make you feel stressed and crazy and feel like the world is ending.
We have also had quite a hand in skewing many many polls, some we couldn’t control as much as we would have liked. But many we have spoiled over. Just enough to make real clear politics look scarey to a mccain supporter. Its worked, alough the goal was to appear 13-15 points ahead.
see, the results have been working.
People tend to support a winner, go with the flow, become “sheeple”
The polls are roughly 3-5 points in favor of Barack. Thats due to our inflation of the polls and pulling in the sheeple.
Our donors, are the same people who finance the MSM. Their interests are tied, Barack then tends to come across as teflon. Nothing sticks. And trust, there were meetings with Fox news. The goal was to blunt them as much as possible. Watch Bill Oreilly he has become much more diplomatic and “fair and balanced” and soft. Its because he wants to retain the #1 spot on cable news and to do that he has to have access to the Obama campaign and we worked hard at stringing him a long and keeping him soft for an interview swap. It worked and now he is anticipating more access. So he is playing it still soft.
This is why nothing sticks.
The operation is massive, the goal is to paint a picture that is that of a winner, regardless of the results.
There is no true inauguration draft or true grant park construction going on. There will be a party, but we are boasting beyond the truth to make it seem like the election is wrapped up.
Our goal is to continue to make you lose your moral. We worked hard at persuasion and paying off and timing and playing the right political numbers to get key republican endorsements to make it seem even more like it was over and the world was coming to an end for you all.
There is a huge staff of people working around the clock, watching every site, blogs, etc. We flood these sites. We have had a goal to overwhelm.
The truth is here. I could go on and on, but you get the picture.
I am saying this because I know HRC was better for the country, and now realize this. I was too late by the time I connected to her. To me Barack was just a cool young dude that seemed like a star. I didn’t know him or his policies, but now I understand more than I care to and I realize his interests are more for him, and the DNC and all working like puppets with dean. I always thought a president wanted the better good for the country. The end result I see is everyone dependent on the government, this means more and more people voting for the DNC. This means the future is forever altered. I don’t see this as america, so I am now supporting John Mccain.
Sarah Palin is a huge threat, and our campaign has feared her like you can’t imagine. If it seems unfair how she has been treated, well its because she has had a team working round the clock to make her look like a fool.
this is a big conspiracy and I am so shocked that its not realized.
We released a little blurb the other day that the Obama campaign was already working on reelection and now putting our efforts towards 2012. This was to make it seem like it was above us to continue caring about 2008. Trust me, its a lie. David is very smart, but its a sticky ugly not very truthful kind of intelligence.
Its not over yet, but I think the machine is working. And its a hill to climb.
I will be quitting my post on nov 5th and my vote will be for John Mccain. Fortunately, my position has been a marketing position and I don’t feel I had any part of anything I would feel guilty for. But I look forward to getting out of this as the negativity and environment upsets me.
I wish you all well, and goodluck.
PS my name is not really sarah. but I am a female and I understand your plight.

Good Lord in Heaven!
Whether it’s real or not it is an accurate portrayal of reality. But the important thing is - it didn’t work! The goal was for Obama to be 10-15 points ahead in the skewed polls. He isn’t going to make it. It doesn’t fit the pre-determined msm storyline, but any fool can see he isn’t going to make it.
Confessions may be healing for the soul, but too little, too late for the country.
Has everyone in the world sold out???
We have the faceless Sarah confessing all and journalists now looking for absolution and excuses are winging around the web.
Where were all these sad, grief-stricken people during the primaries? They decided to wait a week before the election to say, “mea culpa”.
Sorry, but I don’t feel very forgiving right now. Catch me after Nov. 4th. Better yet, find a priest. They’re better equipped to deal with fools and crybabies.
DEADLY!! NO WONDER HE NEEDS THAT INFOMERCIAL!!!
I was driving all day yesterday and today so tuned into Limbaugh (omg). He was talking aobut the 2001 tapes, the (living) constitution, and the courts. He also mentioned some lady from the Newhouse? School of Economics, testifying in the House mon 401Ks, how the govewrnment would take them over, give you 3% interest a year, allow you to put 5% a year into it, the governemnt would manage it for you and use up to $600/yr towards your retirement (social security). I think this was the gist of it. Anyway, it came down to the gov. taking your 401K to help wealth distribution. This was being promoted by someone in Congress, but would be right down Obama’s alley.
Limbaugh also said that in blue CA, the early voting has resulted in approximately equal numbers of Dem and Repub. registrants voting early, when you would expect there to be more disparity in these numbers given the polls showing O to have an extremely large edge there. Limbaugh’s take, the race is even in CA and probably everywhere else.
Isn’t that 401K/IRA plan just plain robbery? The woman was from the New School and jaw dropping absolutely jaw dropping. The Dems are floating this idea to stop all IRA-401 contributions, so no more tax deduction - The government will then open “social Security No 2″ and take all the money you already put in those accounts and invest it for you at a fixed rate of 3%. Yes, that is a fixed rate of 3%. All earners will be garnished a yearly 5% gross contribution to be added to your little never going to grow kitty. the government is going to add a very generous $600. I believe that is the right figure but maybe don’t quote me on the governments generosity, which ultimately comes out of our tax dollars who the fark do they really think they are kidding?
Helloooooo John McCain- got mouth???? If this isn’t the best argument for no Obama - No dem majority everywhere you look I don’t know what is.
this is prime beef bullshit. Barky needs cash for his redistribution plan, for his Bill Ayers education program - He’s and Nancy Pelosi are going to give us social Security number 2 - or how to be ensured of poverty in your old age so you do have to take your rice bowl out to the street with your fellow comrades.
bottom line this is beyond an outrage - and why the hell isn’t McCain or Palin talking about it?
I can’t figure out whether Obama is a Share the Wealth populist in the Kingfish Long mode, a European Socialist, or a Stalinist.
This will be “administrative” issue for him. He is surrounded by all three to choose from for his cabinet. This is in part thanks to Bush II and Cheney for this unitary presidency advancement.
He will continue to consolidate power, as we have seen, so there will be no check or balance to his path. I think it really depends upon who brought him that will detemine his path. That question is still open.
It’s RobinHood economics, only if the story is correct in my memory Robin Hood was dispersing wealth stolen from the comman man, who sweated and toiled, while making the landowners fat and sassy. This new version is wealth taken from the people who are the earners and give it to people who can’t earn or simply don’t want to. And, of course, we can expect the typical skim by “political administrators.”
I don’t know but there seems to be a difference between the original and the revised RH philosophy.
Should we give to charitable causes, give a helping hand? Of course. I do. Most people I know do. Should we have gun put to our heads?
Don’t think so.
All you’ll get is a downslide of productivity and everyone on the dole. Why work hard if anything you save and strive for belongs to the Government? And then, the halarious question: we’re suppose to trust these people, the same people who said Frannie Mae and Freddie Mac were as sound as a bell?
Now this, gives me a true belly laugh.
Depend on government, any government, any political affilation and you can kiss your liberties a sweet goodbye.
McCain/Palin ‘08
PS: Remember the outrage over “voodoo economics?” What a joke!
I cannot believe that the Dems are even discussing this 401K idea at this crucual juncture in the election. This will only help them lose. Perhaps they are truly tone deaf.
McCain should surely pick this up and add a couple of sentences to support his concern about a democratic legislative majority and an Obama administration. This is the prime example he is waiting for to expose. And it is on c-span. It should make everyone wake up and fear a democratic controlled congress and democratic administration. He should come out and say he will veto it, if elected.
This must be a trap of some kind.
Tone deaf is a good phrase, Anne. I heard this 401k/pension plan conversion nonsense a couple days ago. They are “discussing” taking monies [that belong to us] and putting them into Government bonds with a 3% return, while also proposing a capital gains increase. They’ll convert the 401ks at the August levels [before the meltdown], but with a 3% gain, you can forget any growth. Somehow this is all mixed in with Social Security and a $600 annual payout.
I read about it and it made my head hurt. Is it real? A trap? God knows. But honestly, I don’t trust Congress anymore. There’s a reason they have a 9% favorability rate.
And they want to control my retirement funds.
Over my dead body!
But then, they want to tax that, too. It’s surreal.
I hope it’s true about the race being even…
Not true. In reality, McCain is ahead.
omg…I was listening to this today at work and I could not believe it!! You can make more than 3% off of your 401k even if you invest it moderately. Not only that they would not let it be pre tax like it is now. Those people are fucking NUTS. If they would ever do that, alot of people would do like me.. I will just stick my money under my mattress. No one is getting my hard earned money while they sit on their LAZY ASS.
Hell, I get 6% on mine if I just invest in US treasuries and t bills, etc. Low risk. When the economy isn’t so bad, I earn between 6 and 12% on mine!
Sorry about the errors, need to reread. Damn this laptop.
That second audio is frightening. Legal segregation was horrible, evil. But using the Supreme Court to redistribute wealth? No, thanks.
It might be interesting to hear a bit more about his constitutional law views, especially how and what he taught.
This all adds great contrast to McCain who talks about wanting justices that apply the constitution and Obama who wants them to toss it and to wage class warfare on successful Americans.
Yes, redistribution is a lifelong view for Obama. Not only 1995 and 2001, but also 1990 in an interview with a Chicago suburban paper (http://nakedemperornews.com/youngObama.pdf). Further, his associations also make the same clear: membership in the Illinois New Party (an unbrella group that included participants Chicago DSA, the lcoal affiliate of the Democratic Socialists of America, the communist Committees of Correspondence, ACORN, and SEIU).
Joe the Plumber is a perfect illustration of the real Obama. If you check out the click, Obama practically lectured the guy for many minutes. Afterward his cult follows and nutroots gangs pummeled him for his audacity to ask the Dear Leader a question.
It is telling about the real Obama that he reaffirmed, rather than denied his spread the wealth comment when speaking with GMA on the 24th. Too bad he forgot to share that with Biden who got embarrassed trying to defend the indefensible while talking to an Orlando TV interviewer.
Obama is a Marxist and socialist–now, in 2001, in 1995, and in 1990. Hey, aside from his penchant to lie, here’s something he’s consistent with.
It’s even in his 1994 course syllabus printed by the NYTimes.
It’s in the form of a discussion question, but notice he doesn’t ask the merits of reparations, but asks how they could be implemented. Link at New Hampster’s place. Here is “Professor” Obama’s syllabus question to students in 1994:
That sounds awful familiar with the tactics of Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow Coalition and Obama’s many efforts, including his favorite group, ACORN.
Read ACORN’s “Peoples’ Platform” 1990:
http://web.archive.org/web/20010623061353/www.acorn.org/pp-content.html#elections
A few snippets:
Health Care: “Controlled by the people of the community”, “Place members of the community on all medical licensing boards”, “Throw doctors and hospital administrators off the boards of directors, and replace them with a low and moderate income majority”, “Doctors are on set salaries”, “Medical education is financed by the government, in exchange for which doctors are required to serve in the public health service for a period of at least ten years”
Housing: “Repeal mortgage interest and property tax deductions: establish mortgage interest tax credits only for low and moderate income households”, “Subsidized home purchase loans”, “Initiate an immediate moratorium on all foreclosures”
Workers Rights: “Require private industry to use the technology which creates the most jobs”, “Create a national youth entitlement program which guarantees a part time job”, “Provide an adequate income to every American”, “Guarantee a minimum annual family income”, “The right to company or government financed child care”, “Require management to negotiate: Sale of the company, work schedules, pricing, choice of suppliers, organization of management, etc.”
Government: “Require that low and moderate income people be proportionately represented in all major political institutions, including: the Cabinet, the judiciary, the regulatory boards, and the national party conventions.”
Goody! Since I am low/moderate income, I can get get a judiciary position! I don’t have specific education that would qualify me, but that won’t matter!
Gee… Can I serve on the U.S. Supreme Court? I could wear a white lace collar—just like Judge Judy (I love Judge Judy!).
Well, I’m not sure.
Do you have any education or background in lawYou have to be low or middle income to qualify.I have dibs on Michelle’s hospital board seat!
And Michelle, pack up your shit & get out of the Board Room.
At $317,000 per year, you’re not low or moderate income. According to your beloved ACORN, your job is MINE now. I can do your job for $149,000 (don’t want Ol’ Joe to increase my taxes), but it’s ok, I can get a subsidized mortgage (straight from the taxpayer… I won’t even need Rezko in order to buy a house beyond my means, and if I buy a really great mansion like you did, I won’t have to worry if I default on the mortgage, because ACORN established in 1990 that we should have a moratorium on foreclosures).
Can I get the redistribution of Mechelle’s check? That would be sweet. Oh, darn it. That’s right. She isn’t getting paid now. She’s on an LOA.
Gee, I hope they’re not living off the campaign and buying clothes or shoes or anything!
It’s OK, you don’t have to worry about her lack of paycheck. As of 1990, ACORN calls for a total ban on forclosures and free childcare for all.
Welp, I wet my pants laughing at this.
Maybe this will help, but somehow I doubt it.

sowsear - you got it right. You bring up a point no one is talking about.
and one other thing - I (a lifelong PUMA Dem) actually listen to Rush now and know for sure hell has frozen over!
Yes, the sky has definitely fallen…Rush, Boortz…they’re all my friends now. Who would have EVER believed it!
That makes three of us.
I agree, TypewriterS, I listened to Limbaugh on Greta Van S. last night and thought–OMG, I’m agreeing with this windbag.
The world has tilted. The constellations are out of whack. Lifelong Dem here, too. Can’t tell you how many agruments I had with my neighbor, who listened to Rush L. every day, considered his word “the law”.
And I’m agreeing with him???
Gads!
Yes Mam. It’s another planet.
The End of Days.
So when are the Native Americans going to get their due?
Oh and what about women? The ERA still hasn’t been passed, after all these years.
Oh and what about the mostly women who were called witches and then murdered — Salem witch trials a few generations back? I know some descendants of the women and they are still pissed, they fled and moved North to Canada.
The old question — why do today’s taxpayers need to pay for the bad behavior of segregationists or slave owners? Should everyone be required to pay according to their ancestor’s racism? What if you ancestors are recent immigrants. And should everyone get an automatic 50% off this bill owed to AAs? Seeing that 50% of our ancestors were female and therefore endured discrimination and worse?
To the idiots who are calling Palin — dumb, a ditz etc — I counter with the dumbest candidate — Obama.
Obama is called brilliant — I haven’t seen the evidence — and with his redistribution/ share the wealth plan — he is certainly the dumbest of the dumb — he’s even dumber than Biden.
As an descendant of the ancient British, enslaved by the Romans, can I get reparations from Italy?
Northwest, I had never thought about that. I’m not a Native American. But I am a woman and I’m sure I must have had an ancestor burned at the stake somewhere along the line. I’ll have to research that and come back with my formal complaint.
But wait! I have an Irish Catholic background. People hated the Irish. Lots of indentured servants. And Catholics aren’t everyone’s cup of tea even now. But then, the English were even worse. As a far off daughter of County Cork, I might have a claim against the British Crown. Potato famines, forced emigration.
The possibilities are absolutely endless! I hope the New Party has the paperwork printed and ready. There’s going to be a rush on Townhall! Washington, DC, here I come.
Exciting days!
OT anyone see the new Barney Frank ad using Bill OReilly???? and Freaking claims he tried to stop the Mgt mess????? Then blaming the Reps for the mgt mess???
This guy is the biggest, fattest liar I have ever seen in my entire life. I have now seen it all.
Red Hot Bullshit alert.
Masterfully done, thank you so much LisaB
Whens the whitey tape coming out? Don’t want to miss it, particularly if its good as this current effort on constitutional law from Obama.
These next few days might be much better than we hoped.
I think the LA Times is going to be forced to release the tape of Obama at Palestinian dinner…sitting next to the Ayers, listening to anti Semitic jokes and laughing….in 2003, with his good friend Rasheed that he has hidden so far.
Then there is the drip, drip, drip, of the whitey tapes, which have been deflected by the Obamamercial tomorrow night…
We can only hope that more of the skeletons jump out of the closet for Halloween, with all the illegal donations waiting to be discovered…
NH is going well, the place was full of volunteers in the middle of the day.
the LA Times is VERY anti-jewish, I am surprised they haven’t burned the tape already, or edit it
Gee, you can tell it’s down to 2 points, 3 trolls in a row…is that a record??

THIS COMMENT IS IN MODERATION.
=========================================
The only total loser and moron is YOU and your “I want a handout because I don’t want a J-O-B UnAmerican slobs.” Period. Guess what? He’s not going to give YOU the money…he doesn’t really LIKE you. He never did anything to help his OWN PEOPLE IN CHICAGO. So what makes you think he’s going to ring your doorbell of your double wide and hand you MY paycheck? LMFAO. You won’t like the life you get if OHitler wins. But you’re too stupid to read and keep thinking that it’s time you get a bigger welfare check. Nice try. Decent, honest hardworking AMERICANS are speaking up and voting for McCain. There isn’t enough scum in this country to carry OHitler to the finish line.
Yes, the obamabots won’t have the money for sure…they’ll be drafted into Dear Leader’s New Socialist Army where they will be cleaning toilets and peeling potatoes (in between bowing down to their new Master).
Of course, what these lazy losers DONT Get is that Obama isn’t gonna give them a damn thing. You want to know the type of people voting for Obama..the ones that DONT want to work, the ones that want to stay home, sleep in their beds all day, pig out on food and wait for their welfare check. Meanwhile, people like me, who WANT to find work, WONT be able to because all of these small businesses are gonna bail because of Obama’s HUGE tax hike. Bottom line, a lot of people want to sit back and collect welfare, a lot of people don’t want to work, and what they don’t get is that Obama isn’t gonna do a damn thing for them. Obama doesn’t like White People, he hates Jews, he only cares about blacks and giving them our money, thats about it. The post you were responding to, that just proves once again that people should take an IQ test before being allowed to vote. Too many stupid people in this country

Nice try, idiot. Typical right wing response.
I can guarantee you I make a hell of a lot more money than you or any of your trailer park friends here.
I, however, am not a selfish prick looking out just for myself.
=========================================
You are a troll and a desperate one. Why be here? These are intelligent people with brains who know that your commie boss OHitler wants to destroy America. If you hate America, drive your double wide to Mexico. They will love to have your troll azz there.
Is “trailer park friends” the new n-word?
Its a racist term against poor white people I guess. The worst racists in this campaign are the trolls and Der Precious himself.
Whites (poor whites) were called white trash by individuals who were variously known as colored or negro, later Black and now African Americans.
Years ago Harlem was were many immigrants first lived after coming to America. Slowly Harlem became home to AAs and a few white immigrants remained — and they often were called “white trash” by AAs riding the buses.
This information according to children and grandchildren of former Harlem residents.
“White Trash” was very much considered a grave insult — rather like the “N” word.
RED neck, WHITE trash and BLUE collar - nothing more patriotic than that.
Trailer park friends is just another version of “redneck” and “honky.” Or as Murtha added about his own constituency, “ignorant” [a comment I'm sure will win him a slew of votes].
Imagine that the Obamabots saying get use to 8 years of pay back!!! 8 yrs of pay back what does that mean, whites will have to pay blacks back, that is why every white voters needs to look beyond the surface of what is really going on.
I keep seeing this crap on so many blogs, why if Obama wins its going to be pay back, pay back for what, well its just for these same reasons I will never take a chance and vote for Obama, I would hate to see what some of you nuts would do if he does win.
Eldridge Cleaver’s pay back was to rape white women — and then brag about it in his book.
“And Alaska—we’re set up, unlike other states in the union, where it’s collectively Alaskans own the resources. So we share in the wealth when the development of these resources occurs. … It’s to maximize benefits for Alaskans, not an individual company, not some multinational somewhere, but for Alaskans.”
-Sarah Palin 2008
Yes. Share in the wealth of newly created wealth rather than spread the wealth.
newly created wealth as opposed to old created wealth? what???? taxing wealth is taxing wealth.
newly created wealth as opposed to old created wealth? what???? taxing wealth is taxing wealth.
her comment is indefensible. but you may try.
Share wealth when the development of the natural resources occurs. In simpler terms for you: work/activity/industry results in wealth.
This is the opposite of Obamanation “distributive justice,” i.e. sit on your ass while the Great Communist usurps money from so-called wealthy Americans, and gives it to people for his own spurious reasons like “payback” (to use the term other Obots have used in this forum) for racism. In other words, take and distribute: no work necessary.
do you feel she was WRONG in giving the people of Alaska, many of whom are fat and lazy, a cut of that windfall tax?
Not when they work for it. Unlike the quixotic and misguided Obama, who wants to take from some he thinks have too much (excluding himself I’m sure) and give it to others.
I take back quixotic–that’s far too complimentary for Obama, who’s acting out of bitterness, hate, rebellion and deception. Don Quixote actually meant well, he was just clueless. Obama OTOH is odious.
you do know, McCain supports the same policy?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2JPbQOHEkY
this site is so confusing.
Most Alaskans are fat and lazy? I suppose most Pennsylvanians are bitter and racist too.
Are they?? I don’t know, never been there. Those are your terms, so I assume you’ve seen it first hand??
is that my quote? man….the grape vine sure is short here. i never said that. i’ve noticed that non-quote quotes are popular here.
this was a reference to “OBAMA IS A FRAUD’s” quote:
“some fat azz slob to sit around smoking crack in their double wide while the rest of us support him or her”
people are fat an lazy everywhere, not just in the lower 48. not everyone in Alaska works, and they still get handouts, which is fine with me.
The differene here is the natural resource itself belongs to the residents of Alaska, not simply a minefield for the oil and gas companies to excavate willy-nilly.
For instance, if we [the American public] had arrangements with another country to mine our coal [a natural resource], would the American citizens not have a reasonable expectation to profit from some of those proceeds? The raw material is ours afterall. Or should the foreign country take all?
So, your argument is specious at best, pathetic at worst. Try again.
I don’t even get the argument. Palin is a socialist like Obama? Obama is a right wing corporate suck-up like Palin? Or is it just leave the oil in the ground? I don’t think “hypocrite” can recall what he wrote 30 seconds ago. Get off the bong dude!
it’s what they do with the taxed oil money that makes it socialism.
1) As a government, keep the money increase employee pay/employee size.
2) Give it back to the people.
She chose 2. that, my friends, is socialism.
Sure I’ll try again.
“For instance, if we [the American public] had arrangements with another country to mine our coal [a natural resource], would the American citizens not have a reasonable expectation to profit from some of those proceeds?”
Indeed! And if that money was given back to me, that would be socialism! You understand the concept.
so⋅cial⋅ism /ˈsoʊʃəˌlɪzəm/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [soh-shuh-liz-uhm] Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun 1. a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.
I will quote Hendrick Hertzberg:
“Perhaps there is some meaningful distinction between spreading the wealth and sharing it…but finding it would require the analytic skills of Karl the Marxist.”
I will quote, Peggy Sue:
Please fly back to the mothership, drink some koolaid and start saying prayers because your polls are sinking.
And I think the citizens of Alaska might take umbrage that they’re “fat and lazy.”
Please, move to Alaska, survive those winters. See how fat and lazy you get.
But then, I guess Alaskans, too, are merely trailer park trash, hoping to live off the dole. And please, there “is” a difference between natural resources, something you pull from the ground or the natural habitat and my life energy, something you pull from me, the sweat of my brow.
You don’t see the difference? Well, then we have nothing to discuss. But then, I favor humans over polar bears. Even trees. I’m stubborn that way.
OK, I’d like to jump in here and give my view of what Obama is up to.
Here’s the thing, by taking from one small group of Americans, supposedly 5% and spreading it around to 43% you have just created a large voting block. Couple that with the AA community who you just give enough to to keep them coming back for more and you will stay in power forever.
If you doubt what I say just look at Bobo’s home town of Chicago.
wow! comming up with policies that are popular with a large voting block (americans). brilliant plan! you are catching on.
ENOUGH catering to the 5%.
power to the people.
I can see you don’t want to have a discussion, you just want to be an asshole.
The wealth of resources, dumbass, not wealth created by work.
obama isn’t the obama obama thought he knew…
Payback for what is right? That doesn’t sound like the “touchy feely hope and change” CRAP that OHitler spews. This is ALL of our country and for one group to say they are going to get revenge on another doesn’t really bode well for that candidate to get votes. Payback? For what? I pay my taxes, give to charity, work hard, don’t expect a handout. WTF am I getting paid back for? Who are these complete psychopaths? Obviously OHitler brings the mentally deranged out to troll for him. Payback? Not this time TROLL.
Scratch hope, find payback.

==========================================
You are a complete idiot. Palin means to give money to the PEOPLE that she took from CORRUPT corporations. She doesn’t mean for some fat azz slob to sit around smoking crack in their double wide while the rest of us support him or her. Big difference. Get lost TROLL.
taxing oil companies and giving it to the people makes these companies corrupt how? she’s describing the “collective ownership of resources.” facts are important.
calling me names doesn’t solve anything.
Barack Obama paid for a 1/2 hour spot on various TV networks, including Fox, at 8 p.m. tomorrow night?
I now believe John McCain will most assuredly carry Pennsylvania and Florida, thereby winning the 2008 Presidential Election.
The postponed World Series game, tied at 2-2, is supposed to resume tomorrow night at 8 p.m. on Fox. Phillies (PA) and Tampa Ray (FL) fans should be royally P.O.’d at Obama for delaying coverage of their game!
The Weather Gods, and the Baseball Commissioner, are great.
Whatever happened to McCain being on OReilley tomorrow night?
He and Cindy are on Hannity right now. They have been for a half hour now.
Great point Liberty! After reading your post, I’m actually glad the Rays beat the Sox for the AL championship. Let’s hope the weather will cooperate.
WE WILL REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER!
McCain/Palin ‘08 Country First
God is a baseball fan!
These Obama supporters just want a free handout, they are bums sitting back waiting for their welfare check, pathetic
There is some buzz that Vera Baker might be hitting the blogs big time, trips around that Caribbean with BO, and the ferry operator is talking?
At best, 0bama is a switch-hitter.
Sarah got rid of SO much corruption in Alaska, thats why she is hated by both republicans and democrats over there. Even CNN(The Communist News Network) did a story about how Sarah vetoed billions of dollars in pork barrel spending and gave it back to the people of Alaska. She is LEGIT and REAL, thats why people hate her. The ones supporting Obama just want a free handout, heck why work if you can get money for doing nothing right. This country has become so damn lazy people would much rather sit on their asses and collect a welfare check then WORK!!!
Sarah just ripped Obama apart on his 2001 Interview…
What did she say? See thats why I LOVE Sarah, she isn’t afraid to speak the TRUTH
I’ve uncovered a video from 2000 where he talks about spreading the wealth. Why isn’t this being show? We need to spread the word.
Here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2JPbQOHEkY
Steve,
You still don’t get it or you do but you’re like Allen Colmes, who misrepresents the argument.
The top 5% of the people pay most of the taxes in this country. The difference between your video of John McCain and Obama’s policy is Obama wants to tax them even more and then give it to 43 % of the people who pay no income tax or very little. Hence, spread the wealth.
The folks on the Obama side think that we can just go back to the 1990’s and everything will be the same as it was.
When you roll back the tax cuts and let them expire they go up for everyone effected.
I don’t live in 1998…I live in 2008 where a tax increase could lead to a great depression.
Have you noticed Tampa that whenever McCain’s numbers go up the stock market rallys.
They say if Obama wins the Dow could drop to 5000..
Right Seattle,
We had tough times for awhile after Clinton’s tax increase. As a matter of fact, I remember him in a speech to some union workers say …”I know you think I raised your taxes to much, it might surprise you to know, I think I did too”.
Along came the internet boom, the stock market took off and everything was OK. However, without the internet boom I’m not so sure the 90’s would have been so great.
More fear mongering…
Well you should inform the Tax Policy Center, a joint project of the Urban Institute and the Brookings Institution, that their analysis is incorrect.

You know, if you listen carefully you can hear the cracks forming in the facade that is Obama. Soon the dam will burst entirely.
Wow the trolls are really stepping it up tonight. Must be that 2 point spread at the Gallup polls. LMFAO. That’s just a screenshot of what’s to come in the next week. McCain isn’t stupid. He knows what he’s doing. That BS “preempt the World Series” INFOMERCIAL will backfire, the next day there will be MORE bombs dropped and illegal alien OHitler will skulk back to Chicago and pray he can keep his Senate seat. Trolls…I’d be worried too if I were you freaks.
They aren’t worried. They don’t care. They are however, being paid time and a half as the bad ship Obama takes on water.
we aren’t worried, and not being paid. we are as passionate as you (just not as impolite - name calling ended in 3rd grade).
(ps a troll is not someone who disagrees with you)
Shiloh — they’re being paid time and a half; unless they’re female — then they’re being paid time and a quarter….
No, he can’t keep the Senate seat. Chicago or no Chicago, he’s toast.
I do love to see lots of trolls. It is always the O signal that he is freaking out.
Rumor has it PA internal don’t look so good for Barrakula.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
Maybe when he loses his friend Billy Ayers will bomb something for him to make him feel better, or maybe they’ll just call for riots.
I will stay up all night to see Barfy’s concession speech. I am kind of hoping his head exlodes or he starts having smoke come out of his Oborg body or I’d even like it if he and MEchelle just cry!
You’re absolutely right, csuzeg!
The increased troll activity, the frantic arguments for the “O”’s side means they know what we know.
The wave is rising. Hope they have their lifejackets on. The waters are going to get plenty rough and ready.
What an election!
And why, oh why, is Obama not 15-20 points ahead? This “is” the Dems year. I knew that when the primaries started.
Too bad, they threw the filly out. She’d have the election sewn up. Whatta you think???? Oh, that’s right. She was “only” a woman, a Clinton at that. What’s that? They’re speeding Big Dawg to hump in Pennsylvania because the internal numbers are hemorrhaging.
Damn! Lady luck anyone? Karma is bitch!
PUMA McCain/Palin ‘08
And why isn’t McCain 20-30 points ahead of an anit-American terrorist? This is an anti-terrorist year.
PUMA - People Under Mental Atrophy
Because THIS year marks the end of the eight-year nightmarish Bush Presidency!
THIS was suppose to be the election year that Bush and the Republicans got chased out of the White House!
THIS was suppose to be the year of the Democrats!
THIS year was suppose to be the “ANYBODY but Bush for President” year!
Thanks to the trifling Obamacrat “leadership,” this election year will no longer be for the Democrats. For the first time in my life, I’m relieved about that.
The Democrats blew it. And blew it BADLY.
You got that right!! The REAL question is in the midst of a fallen economy, war in Iraq etc. etc. WHY ISN’T HIS EMINENCE OBAMA 20 TO 30 POINTS AHEAD??!!! The Messiah should be walking away with this, not fighting tooth and nail as his supposed landslide lead dwindles. The Great Uniter is supposed to have all the Democrats and even some Republicans behind him? In case the Obots haven’t noticed because they’re too busy cramming at Obama Camp, there is dissension in the Democratic party.
This IS going to be the election year that Bush and the Republicans got chased out of the White House!
There I fixed it for you.
Worried, no. But you must be. You selectively chose the closest poll. Here are some others:
GWU/Battleground: Obama +3
Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby: Obama +4
Ipsos/McClatchy: Obama +5
Gallup (Expanded): Obama +7
Diageo/Hotline: Obama +8
FOX News: Obama +9
Newsweek: Obama +12
Pew Research: Obama +15
Sorry, I looked but couldn’t find even one that shows McCain in the lead.
HAHAHA! Kerry was way ahead, too. A shoe in as I recall. Hahahaha. The next day some coworkers told me they couldn’t vote for Kerry because they hated his wife! I was stunned, having campaigned for Kerry and attending huge rallies 50,000+.
See? all it takes is a little thing for a guy to lose and Barfy’s got numerous big things!
Where do you get your statistics? Seems you should do more research. Bush was ahead since about the last week in August up until the election.

Try these, Steve:
The latest Investors Business Daily/TIPP tracking poll shows Obama ahead of McCain by 2.8 points as of Monday. TIPP is credited for having been the most accurate polling outfit in 2004.
The Zogby poll shows Obama leading by 4.8 points, down from yesterday when his lead was 5.3 points.
According to John Zogby: “Things are trending back for McCain. His numbers are rising and Obama’s are dropping on a daily basis.”
Then start listening to your neighbors, your family and friends. There’s something in the wind, a whisper, something not fully voiced but forming on the edges and it sounds like:
No! Not now, not ever.
And then, vote as if your life depended on it. Because it does.
It ain’t over until it’s over!
I saw today’s Fox Rassmussen Real Clear Politics - 4 points with 4% undecided. That’s a statistical dead heat.
Where did you get that Fox poll you quote?
They’re not going to. They’re the MSM-generated polls.
November 4, 2008 will tell the true story. The one that the MSM isn’t willing to report.
I wouldn’t put my faith in those polls if I were you. They’re leading you Obamabrats into a false sense of security. History proves that.
Ok then. If you’re so confident and the election is a done deal, why are you here? Shouldn’t you be camping out in Chicago to get a good spot for The Messiah’s victory celebration??
And yet the forum is flooded with Obots. Something is amiss here…..
Fear is in the air, Kathy. Anytime “the One” starts to nosedive, the Obamatrons start to vibrate and panic.
We feel it. They feel it, too.
Buckle your seatbelt. We’re in for a wild ride!
I’m here because I like to hear the crazy stories you conservatives come up with to placate yourselves. The election isn’t over, it will be over on November 4th when Obama is elected to the office of President.
Keep telling yourselves that the “trolls” are here for whatever reason you need to in order to get over the fact that your candidates will lose/have lost. It’s not something that surprises me in the least.
I’m not putting my faith in the polls, I believe it was other people on this site that brought up polls. I’m putting my faith in America to elect the correct person. That person being Obama.
Don’t you have a Philosophy 101 midterm to study for? Tsk..tsk…what would an Obot be without an A in Philosophy??
Oh the talking points…
Actually I’m an Electrical Engineer for 10 years now. I did take Philosophy in college though.
Just saw a blurb on Lou. Nancy, spokeswoman for the Gang of 5 (Pelosi, Reid, Barry, MEchille and Dean)telling us “Don’t be scared.”
I’d like to wish the same to Ms. Pelosi…you’ll have a few months to try to continue your damage before you’re divested of the power you’ve abused. Many of your former supporters are voting Republican down ticket to see that that happens. Can’t come too soon. If we can take a few seats back along with a McCain presidency, we’ll foil your plans.
Well blogging from Gaza in your underwear is really sort of sad. Oh well. Job’s up in a week.
ROFL thanks for the laugh!
the payback is in referance to reparation. why should we have to pay for something that happened long before we were born? i thought obama was the devine one, above race and hate. i thought he was gonna unite our country? hes just a 2-bit chicago thug trying to buy the election. i feel most sorry for the AA community in this country. they are the ones being most duped by this race–baiting piece of shit. the fact the trolls are out in full force is reflective of the fear in the obama camp. thhe stock market is looking better, so hes losing the economic issue, they are worried about the bradley effect, the PUMA EFFECT, and now it was reported on drudge that CNN wont show his infomercial.the tide is turning poeple, and bambis gonna be in drydock on nov5. AND THE LIGHT SHONE DOWN FROM THE HEAVENS,AND OBAMA ASKS,”GOD, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?” AND THE LORD RESPONDS,”BECAUSE YOU TRIED TO STEAL MY THRONE!”
Can someone explain to me how fast we can get rid of Pelosi?
Vote for whomever is running against the evil queen of the west.
This kinda relates to spreading the wealth from poor to rich, as you’ll see when you get to the end of my brother’s experience over the weekend serving Obamabots. I feel like it’s apropos for me to post some funny and yet disturbing truths about Obama campaign volunteers here in San Francisco.
My brother worked as a bartender at two Obama campaign parties at a very popular nightclub over the weekend. For the record he is a libertarian-leaning Republican supporting McCain. Anyways, he told me that the whole place was filled with drunk campaign workers and in one room they had this volunteer from a local sex/ porn shop holding sessions with some of these campaign workers. What kind of sessions? Try not to barf, but this volunteer was coaching these idiots on how to achieve orgasm by chanting Obama! and conjuring his image. My brother said these loons were laying/ rolling on the floor in semi-orgasmic states while chanting Obama.
As for entertainment, the music that was played involved more brainwashing. my brother told me it was a lot of techno music enhanced by Obama speeches/ catchphrases dubbed onto the tracks.
The sickening part, at least for my brother, was when a drunk campaign staffer went to him and gave him a pin to wear. My brother couldn’t betray his own sympathies but to remain neutral, told the staffer “I’m apolitical but thank you” as he took the pin and put it in his tip jar. Shortly thereafter, my brother went to another work station, but his supervisor told him that the staffer was asking the manager to make him wear the pin, and generally trying to get him into trouble at work. In all, the bartenders didn’t make that much tips because the campaign staffers and volunteers told the bartenders that they were putting the money meant for tips into the jars marked Obama Campaign Contribution jars instead since it’s for a “better cause” in their words.
I guess bartenders who rely on tips didn’t need the money as badly as a fraud who raised millions illegally. Oh, and my brother also said that people at the party were saying that a lot of the contributions came from so-called credit cards that you can purchase with cash at places like Western Union. There are no paper trails that way and you can get away with contributing more than the max.
Wow–Obots are so sick, miserly and vulgar to boot.
Unbelievable.
I suppose that stuff is too sick to be made up.
I swear to God this is true, I had lunch with my brother today, he’s a well-know bartender here in San Francisco. He bartends at several places and has quite a following.
Well then, it must be true.
Oh, my. It’s so SF with a little Marin thrown in. I’ve live in both places. Give your brother my sympathies.
Greta is going to talk about the LA Times withholding the Rashidi tape on her show at 10:00. Go Greta!
Hannity and Gingrich talking about it now.
Release the tape LA Times. Stop withholding information from the public.
By the time the Fox commentators finish describing it, people will know what he said and the tape will almost be irrelevant. So you better jump fast LA Times or be caught red-handed trying to dupe the public. After all, you are fast becoming irrelevant too.
By not releasing it the story is reminding people about the MSM bias as well as Der Precious and him embracing radicalism. There’s no time to smooth this over so release it or not, it hurts Der Precious badly.
my guess is there’s more than one copy of that tape and someone will be getting it to McCain!

It’s the saddest thing to see the AAs being defrauded by this azzhole. I can’t believe they would fall for this when the idiot did NOTHING to help the AAs in HIS OWN DISTRICT. They are suffering because he couldn’t care less. Hispanics too, but they are catching on to him big time. The smart AAs I know want nothing to do with this creep.
The majority of AAs would never see any of the money — the funds would be channeled to folks like Mrs. Obama and she’d suddenly have a huge rise in salary.
Stuff like this happens all the time on Caribbean Islands — ALL legislative positions and government jobs are held by blacks. So you would think that blacks are no longer poor — think again. It is all about class — and who’s parents were BORN on the island. There is still a very exclusive section, segregated where the very wealthy live (mostly people who work for the Government or were elected to their office) — then there are the slums — little shacks, here and there where the poor live, servants to the local mafia of the island.
Oh then go to Africa and see the magnificent homes that the ruling class live in — and then see the slums that the lower classes live in.
Obama is living in a fantasy world — he has no idea about the reality of the world.
And rather than Obama making an effort to understand America and how the working class lives — Obama is trying to remake America into his concept of what America should be like. I do believe that Mrs. Obama has made a remark about Obama’s vision of what America should be like.
This is one of the sickest, pathetic couples ever to enter politics — and they have hoodwinked and bamboozled 95% of the voting AAs.
Wow this is a stretch, Palin is a socialist. LMAO. See if that flies in the voting booth on November 4. That’s the best argument to cover for Senator Government? Axelgoebbles needs better talking points. LMAO.
Obama Speaks Of Rev. Wright In This 1995 Interview
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh7xMhsLnac
Oh, my. It’s so SF with a little Marin thrown in. I’ve live in both places. Give your brother my sympathy.
It’s a sad day in this country, that is NOT a dictatorship, monarchy, etc. that there are morons and buffoons who behave the way like this poor bartender experienced. I think what it is is that the people who usually KNOW better than behave like trash have been given the “thumbs up” to be violent, ugly, racist, thugs because OHitler says it’s okay. What a bust.
Since this is obviously true, everyone should call every respectable news outlet and demand that they air this story. Actually why hasn’t even one news outlet shown this story? This is the thing that all news shows would die for. Oh yea, maybe it’s not true.
Dumbass, this was a private party for local campaign volunteers, so before you go calling me a liar maybe you should go steal some brain cells for that obviously brain cell-deprived head of yours.
I didn’t call you a liar, but you sure did call me some simple minded names. Again, it’s nothing that surprises me; I am on noquarter.
You mean the OBAMA news outlets??? The all-Obama, all-the-time networks - CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, etc.??? Those networks??? The same networks that THREW AWAY their credibility clinging to Obama’s corrupt nuts since January??? Those outlets????
Yes, those same new outlets that scientific study has shown has been more critical of Obama than of McCain. Those outlets!
Yeah, according to Farrakhan, he’s taken into consideration that we weren’t born during slavery…it’s because of “what your daddy did.” We are to blame for any unhappiness for any minority on the face of the earth according to Wright, Farrakhan and Pfleger. Utter BS.
I think its sad that Obama is trying to brain wash children using nickelodeon

Of course, what these lazy losers DONT Get is that Obama isn’t gonna give them a damn thing. You want to know the type of people voting for Obama..the ones that DONT want to work, the ones that want to stay home, sleep in their beds all day, pig out on food and wait for their welfare check. Meanwhile, people like me, who WANT to find work, WONT be able to because all of these small businesses are gonna bail because of Obama’s HUGE tax hike. Bottom line, a lot of people want to sit back and collect welfare, a lot of people don’t want to work, and what they don’t get is that Obama isn’t gonna do a damn thing for them. Obama doesn’t like White People, he hates Jews, he only cares about blacks and giving them our money, thats about it. The post you were responding to, that just proves once again that people should take an IQ test before being allowed to vote. Too many stupid people in this country
===========================================
YOU ARE SO RIGHT. I hate to say it…but this whole election I was thinking…Why DON’T we have an IQ test for voters? It’s the lowest of the low, the most ignorant, stupid, lazy and filthy dirty who want OHitler in office. They shouldn’t be allowed to vote. Sorry. Anyone who votes to destroy America because they are lazy slobs shouldn’t get to be protected with a vote.
I am in complete agreement with your IQ test idea. That way, most people posting on this site wouldn’t be allowed to vote, including yourself.
Please provide some evidence of this HUGE tax hike you suggest Obama would introduce. Have you forgotten how prosperous the 90’s were? Obama’s plan would put those in the top 5% back to the same rates as they had in the 90’s. Unless the business makes over $600k, they won’t see a difference in their taxes. Anything over $600k isn’t a small business.

How about Michelle telling avergae working folks: “We want a bigger piece of your pie.” She said it several times.
She did NOT say “We want a bigger piece of only rick folks pie.”
Uh-uh. She said YOUR pie and she was looking at average people in Ohio when she said it.
I dpn’t believe a WORD of what Obama says — he flipflopped on so many issues as soon as he wone (stole) the primary.
Who can beleive anything he says.
Really, Steve? I thought that number was $250,000 but then Biden slipped/gaffed today and said $150,000.
But look here, the SBA figures [something that even ignorant trailer trash can pull up with a simple mouse click} says this:
oh, btw: SBA is the Small Business Administration
Q. How does the SBA define a small business?
A. A small business is a concern that is organized for profit, with a place of business in the United States, and which operates primarily within the United States or makes a significant contribution to the U.S. economy through payment of taxes or use of American products, materials or labor. Further, the concern cannot be dominant in its field, on a national basis. Finally, the concern must meet the numerical small business size standard for its industry. SBA has established a size standard for most industries in the U.S. economy. The most common size standards are as follow:
500 employees for most manufacturing and mining industries
100 employees for all wholesale trade industries
$7.0 million for most retail and service industries
$33.5 million for most general & heavy construction industries
$14.0 million for all special trade contractors
$0.75 million for most agricultural industries
About one-fourth of industries have a size standard that is different from these levels. They vary from $0.75 million to $33.5 million for size standards based on average annual revenues and from 100 to 1500 employees for size standards based on number of employees. Several SBA programs have either alternative or unique size standards, such as the Small Business Investment Company Program.
Whoa!!! Looks like you guys need to adjust those numbers again. And I think Palin referenced a Mexican restaurant in Nevada, 20 employees, owned by a woman, trying to make the American Dream come true. She makes over the $250,000. More taxes? What will she do between extra taxes and mandatory health care benefits. Hummmmm. Let me guess–lay off workers, maybe go under?
But what the hell. The New Party will take care of us. What’s to worry?
Please, spread your nonsense somewhere else. The numbers, the plan does not work. Not for you. Not for me. Not for anyone.
But if you like the idea? Move to Cuba!
“They shouldn’t be allowed to vote.”
THIS is the definition of fascism. Please stop…you are embarassing yourself.
flyarms…You’re wasting your time here. I already told you…this is a group of people who are intelligent and love America. Go spread your filth with crack junkies at the Daily Kook.
Yea, anyone who doesn’t support McCain doesn’t love America! That’s the American way. Either agree with me or you’re anti-American.
Funny how here in San Francisco, if you don’t voice support for Obama you’re un-American and obviously not to be considered a decent human being.
As with the IQ test idea, I find it laughable that Obama voters are supposedly the “smart ones” in this election. You will put down anyone who didn’t graduate from college or who didn’t earn their degrees from Ivy League universities, as if only people with higher educations deserve the right to vote. Do you not think this notion as being elitist in the least bit? You wonder why then that blue-collar voters still harbor some distrust of your shitty candidate.
Before you go attacking my intelligence, let’s see some proof of yours. Where did you go to college, what have you accomplished in your life that you can make pronounced judgments on people you presume to be dumber than you believe yourself to be. I graduated from UC Berkeley, decided to then obtain a B.S. in Nursing as my second bachelors, now I’m working towards a doctorate in pharmacology. English is not my first language btw, I also speak three other languages. Do I sound like a dumb McCain voter to you?
Thank you. And what about the audio clip Howard Stern played of Obama voters who are fine with Palin as his running mate?? LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First, it was a McCain supporter that proposed passing an IQ test as a condition to voting.
Second, I never “put down anyone who didn’t graduate from college”.
And third, “dumb McCain voter” is redundant.
I believe there’s something intrinsically un-American about the direction the republican right has been taking the nation. Plutocracy is un-American. Giving enormous tax cuts to the 10 percent of the population that already controls 71 percent of the total wealth when you have to borrow money in the name of all Americans to do it is un-American.
This is the sort of crap that we once had a revolution to end. We’re luckier now, thanks to the wisdom of the people who rebelled against that tyranical class system. Now we can hold an election and level the playing field a bit.
Ticker tape on Fox tonite,said in the Clinton years, Clinton promised the same thing for the middle class.But once elected, he raised taxes for the middle class..I guess once he got in office,and saw the books,he thought it would be the best thing to do..lol
Do I see History repeating,Hope Not..
Vote Mccain/Palin,,,for Honesty and safety
This is a tough issue - parity in school funding. As a lifelong democrat, I am for parity, however we can acheive it. It has benefits for all of us as it relates to a reduction in poverty and unemployment.
I do not think education and health care should be such tough issues, as they reduce the long term costs of not providing them.
I live in Texas, and we still are largely dependent upon property taxes for education. My state dem representative is trying to solve the shortfall in taxes against the needs, attempting to achieve equity, and I will vote for him.
The rest, not so much.
We need another way of funding education other than property taxes. We tried to take tax revenue from high property value districts and share it with low property value districts. That pissed everyone off. It was called, “Robin Hood.” This wasn’t socialism in my view, but it looked like it to the parents who wanted more astroturf.
It appears to be socialistic to spread the tax revenue across all children, but the benefits here outway the downsides of a bad education, which result in fewer opportunities for economic acheivement. The taxes we pay are to fund the operation of government, not give handouts as Obama wants to do in his stump speeches and given his history. One of those operations is education, though it seems to have been co-opted by the annenburg challenge, that provided no benefit whatsoever to education.
I am just talking about preventative maintenance of our society here and what makes a good investment. All children are good investments, regardless of politics.
