I can only see one reason of you being here, and that is either because you have nothing better to do, or you are just scared that this tape is really out there, so you are hanging out here to get any info you can.

I wouldn’t doubt this tape being out there just look at the other shocking tapes we had to endure… Wright the Plfelger, now BO’s friend that helped him get a house, and helped his campaign Tony Rezko was convicted for 16 counts of money laundering, extortion, fraud, directly after Mr.Obama got to secure the nomination. So why don’t you go waste your time trying blog around to prove that’s not true.

If you zObamabies don’t think this tape is out there… then quit being so jumpy & nervous and quit hanging out on this blog.

Just wait it out, pretend it doesn’t exist, and just tell yourself that more and more, that way when it hits You-tube and media networks everywhere the TRUTH can just hit you that much harder, like a slap in the face, or a ton of bricks, they might even have to call you out a ambulance when the shock takes over.

If the tape really doesn’t exist then CHILL.

I’m pretty sure it’s out there though, I can’t wait to see the look on the DNC members faces, and all the people who have been going around trying so hard to spread lies, and cover up cover ups. I wonder what the look on your face and the rest of the Obamabots will look like when you see it for the first time hahaha.

When this tape comes out I’m going to record it and then throw a party cause I know it will be over for Obama… NO one in their right mind will support and vote for him. There is already enough bad information about him in circulation, about his radical anti- American friends… I don’t even have to see this tape.

I’m smart enough to KNOW not to vote for BO.

do you white folks think that black folks just for gave your parents and grand parents.

If I sat your grand parents and my grand parents down they will have an entire different view of the great America.

So please white folks get a grip – yes some thinga have gotten better – but your hands are dirty with blood and deceitfulness.

I would not be surprise if she said it – it true!

Turner was once a prominent activist in New Jersey’s Republican Party. To area conservatives, he was best known by his moniker for call-ins to the Sean Hannity Show, “Hal from North Bergen.” For years, Hannity offered his top-rated radio show as a regular forum for Turner’s occasionally racist, always over-the-top rants. Hannity also chatted with him off-air, allegedly offering encouragement to Turner as he struggled to overcome a cocaine habit and homosexual leanings. Turner has boasted that Hannity once invited Turner and his son on to the set of Fox News’s Hannity and Colmes. Today, Turner lurks on the fringes of the far right, spouting hate-laced tirades on his webcast radio show. Hannity, meanwhile, remains mum about his former alliance with the neo-Nazi, homing in instead on the supposed racism of black and Latino Democrats.

…On WABC Hannity inherited (Bob) Grant’s fan base of angry white males, who listened to his show in the New York City area. Hannity recognized his audience’s thirst for red meat, racist rhetoric. However, he knew that if he wanted to avoid Grant’s fate, he needed an air of deniability. When “Hal from North Bergen” began calling his show, Hannity found he could avoid the dangers of direct race-baiting by simply outsourcing it to Turner.

If she were anything but a craven politician, she would not be lying about how unfair the rules that she approved and agreed on are. And if you were any kind of woman, you would call her on it.

But you have no reason putting up the race dog whistle to your lips: OMG Michelle Obama hates Teh Whitey and hangs out with Louis Farrakhan! You might as well say that she promotes Rapin’ Yer White Wimmin’ and go get yourselves a nice fucking tree for the grande finale. This is the worst side of the Democratic party we have seen since George Wallace.

I am so ashamed of all of you.

That needed to be said. This is madness.

Talk about a bunch of dog-whistling going on here. The republicans were right about Democrats. This a hideously racist party.

You suck.

Hmmm?

Hillary’s Ties to Religious Fundamentalists
By Barbara Ehrenreich, Barbaraehrenreich.com

There’s a reason why Hillary Clinton has remained relatively silent during the flap over intemperate remarks by Barack Obama’s former pastor, Jeremiah Wright. When it comes to unsavory religious affiliations, she’s a lot more vulnerable than Obama.

You can find all about it in a widely under-read article in the September 2007 issue of Mother Jones, in which Kathryn Joyce and Jeff Sharlet reported that “through all of her years in Washington, Clinton has been an active participant in conservative Bible study and prayer circles that are part of a secretive Capitol Hill group known as the “Fellowship,” aka the Family. But it won’t be a secret much longer. Jeff Sharlet’s shocking exposé, The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power will be published in May.

Sean Hannity has called Obama’s church a “cult,” but that term applies far more aptly to Clinton’s “Family,” which is organized into “cells” — their term — and operates sex-segregated group homes for young people in northern Virginia. In 2002, writer Jeff Sharlet joined the Family’s home for young men, foreswearing sex, drugs and alcohol, and participating in endless discussions of Jesus and power. He wasn’t undercover; he used his own name and admitted to being a writer. But he wasn’t completely out of danger either. When he went outdoors one night to make a cell phone call, he was followed. He still gets calls from Family associates asking him to meet them in diners — alone.

The Family’s most visible activity is its blandly innocuous National Prayer Breakfast, held every February in Washington. But almost all its real work goes on behind the scenes — knitting together international networks of right-wing leaders, most of them ostensibly Christian. In the 1940s, the Family reached out to former and not-so-former Nazis, and its fascination with that exemplary leader, Adolph Hitler, has continued, along with ties to a whole bestiary of murderous thugs. As Sharlet reported in Harper’s in 2003:

During the 1960s the Family forged relationships between the U.S. government and some of the most anti-Communist (and dictatorial) elements within Africa’s postcolonial leadership. The Brazilian dictator General Costa e Silva, with Family support, was overseeing regular fellowship groups for Latin American leaders, while, in Indonesia, General Suharto (whose tally of several hundred thousand “Communists” killed marks him as one of the century’s most murderous dictators) was presiding over a group of fifty Indonesian legislators. During the Reagan Administration, the Family helped build friendships between the U.S. government and men such as Salvadoran general Carlos Eugenios Vides Casanova, convicted by a Florida jury of the torture of thousands, and Honduran general Gustavo Alvarez Martinez, himself an evangelical minister, who was linked to both the CIA and death squads before his own demise.

At the heart of the Family’s American branch is a collection of powerful right-wing politicos, who include, or have included, Sam Brownback, Ed Meese, John Ashcroft, James Inhofe, and Rick Santorum. They get to use the Family’s spacious estate on the Potomac, the Cedars, which is maintained by young men in Family group homes and where meals are served by the Family’s young women’s group. And, at the Family’s frequent prayer gatherings, they get powerful jolts of spiritual refreshment, tailored to the already-powerful.

Clinton fell in with the Family in 1993, when she joined a Bible study group composed of wives of conservative leaders like Jack Kemp and James Baker. When she ascended to the Senate, she was promoted to what Sharlet calls the Family’s “most elite cell,” the weekly Senate Prayer Breakfast, which included, until his downfall, Virginia’s notoriously racist Sen. George Allen. This has not been a casual connection for Clinton. She has written of Doug Coe, the Family’s publicity-averse leader, that he is “a unique presence in Washington: a genuinely loving spiritual mentor and guide to anyone, regardless of party or faith, who wants to deepen his or her relationship with God.”

Furthermore, the Family takes credit for some of Clinton’s rightward legislative tendencies, including her support for a law guaranteeing “religious freedom” in the workplace, such as for pharmacists who refuse to fill birth control prescriptions and police officers who refuse to guard abortion clinics.

What drew Clinton into the sinister heart of the international right? Maybe it was just a phase in her tormented search for identity, marked by ever-changing hairstyles and names: Hillary Rodham, Mrs. Bill Clinton, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and now Hillary Clinton. She reached out to many potential spiritual mentors during her White House days, including new age guru Marianne Williamson and the liberal Rabbi Michael Lerner. But it was the Family association that stuck.

Sharlet generously attributes Clinton’s involvement to the underappreciated depth of her religiosity, but he himself struggles to define the Family’s theological underpinnings. The Family avoids the word Christian but worships Jesus, though not the Jesus who promised the earth to the “meek.” They believe that, in mass societies, it’s only the elites who matter, the political leaders who can build God’s “dominion” on earth. Insofar as the Family has a consistent philosophy, it’s all about power — cultivating it, building it and networking it together into ever-stronger units, or “cells.” “We work with power where we can,” Doug Coe has said, and “build new power where we can’t.”

Now it’s up to Clinton to explain — or, better yet, renounce — her longstanding connection with the fascist-leaning Family.

Show me the money, somebody.

(And I full-throatedly agree that releasing the “tape” now would be politically stupid. I just can’t see how that stopped anyone before.)

Really, though, why should whitey come under any criticism? I mean, the darkies were given the vote in 1964! Time to get over it! Racism is dead, dead, dead!

Politically, it may or may not have relevance. In the real world, where most of us have to live, it won’t.

If McCain wins, I’ll laugh. Four more years of GOP rule should be enough to kill the party for good.

Still, not a reason to slime a decent guy, which anyone who has spent time with him, like I have, would understand. And I’m no fan of MexIslamofacsists at all.

I would vote for an Australian Shepherd before I voted for McCain, because the dogs are smarter. It’s weird watching Hillary supporters abandon the ship like metaphorical rats.

Get over yourselves.

Get over yourselves.

So, you are admitting there IS a tape? What is the source of your information? Did you alter it, in any way? Did you edit Louis Farrakhan out of the tape?
