the unity pony is dead

For someone who needs Clinton’s supporters to win in November, for someone who claims to be about unity, for someone who claims to want to bring the party together, and heal deep wounds inflicted during this primary, Obama and his gang of supporters sure suck at unity.
For starters – Booing the Former First Lady and Senator of New York is not a sign of unity … or decency for that matter.
(Note to Obama: allowing this to continue for months and months, and NOW trying to act all *unity like* is not going to cut it. If you think we forgot about all those other rallies, where you just laughed as the crowds boo’d Hillary, you don’t know us very well, at all.)
And hiring her former campaign manager, Patty Solis Doyle, as the chief of staff to the new (and as of yet, unnamed, Vice President elect is seen as a big *f*ck you*. (not that we want her on your ticket, anyway.)

And trying to keep Hillary off the ballot is not going to help either.
And heads up, you kind of ticked off some asian people the other day. Probably not a good thing to generalize about racial stereotypes. Oh, and you kind of insinuated that being gay will keep people off your VP list.
And during fundraisers, you might not want to make statements like, “We don’t need the people. We just need the checks.”
And not marching in your city’s Gay Pride Parade is not really a good show of unity either.
And making comments like, “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun. Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl.” probably not too helpful either.
And continuing to be elusive regarding you background is not a sure sign of instilling confidence in potential voters. Why is your half-brother calling you a Muslim, but you have always denied any ties to that religion?
And why are you hiding your birth certificate? Isn’t that a requirement of any Presidential candidate – to prove eligibility?
And the continuation of labeling Clinton supporters as racist for not supporting you is not helping either.
And while I highly doubt Obama is making death threats, the fact that many people who speak out against Obama receive death threats is not helping either.
Oh, and stripping Clinton delegates of their position at the Convention is not helping the ol’ Unity Pony either.
So, although I am steadfast in my determination to never vote Obama, I do think if he is trying to bring unity to the party, and heal those open wounds that his campaign caused, he is doing a piss poor job. Kind of makes you question his leadership abilities, no? Perhaps that is why Democrats are speaking out, and refusing to support Obama, and others are removing themselves from his VP list.
For those of you considering McCain, but are worried about a third Bush term, here is an article for you. Why McCain Wouldn’t Be Bush III (Sorry, Barack)
And here is a video of Tom Delay discussing Obama. It is quite interesting.
And here is a web site to fight the Smears and Lies. It is called The Audactiy of Deception and Hypocrisy.
Sorry, but that Unity Pony is dead and buried. That is why I Just Say NO Deal.
