Has Every Latino You Know Seen This?

By Uppity Woman on October 20, 2008 at 9:00 PM in Barack Obama, Latinos, Qualifications

If not, please show it to them.

From my blog, Uppity Woman.

  • NO NObama

    O/T did anyone read Andy Martin’s lawsuit in Hawaii seeking the release of obama’s birth records from the hawaii hospital? it is on http://www.contrarian commentary.com This is why he may be flying back to HI to “see the sick granny”???

    • WasLNbutNoBamaBotsKeepStealingMyName

      If I were Andy, I would make arrangement to pull my blog content (hosted on Blogger and owned by Google) and get it posted on another site, seeing as one of the founders of Google is going to actually campaign for obama.

      • Expuma

        “We are 15 days from the finish line and we cannot falter, we cannot stop, we cannot take a single vote for granted,” Clinton said Monday. “I am asking you to work as hard for Barack as you worked for me. If you made phone calls for me, make them for Barack. If you walked streets for me, make them for Barack. If you talked to your friends and neighbors for me, do it again for Barack. We cannot risk four more years of the same failed Republican policies.”

        • Connie

          No way. NOBAMA

        • destardi

          Too bad I think for myself…unlike 50% of dems, and 50% of republicans.

          I was right about bush, I’m right about uhbama.

          Hillary will have to suck it up…she no more wants uhbama to win, than Lady de Rothchild.

        • candymarl

          I supported Hillary based on her accomplishments and the issues.

          Obama has neither the accomplishments, experience, the track record or anything else to compare with Hillary’s decades of public service. Obama takes both sides on multiple issues and often does the opposite of what he say he will do (see FISA and Chicago public housing, Israel and Palestine, Iran, The Surge).

          I respect Hillary’s right to her views but I’m capable of coming to my own opinion. BTW Hillary herself has pointed out that McCain has bucked his own party and reached across the aisle. When did Bush ever do that?

          Hillary herself pointed out Obama’s lack of experience and his habit of agreeing with whichever group he was speaking to at the time.

          But now we’re supposed to forget all of that?

          Okie dokie.

        • steel magnolia

          Hillary, Hillary, Hillary – what a disappointment! And you, of all people, know the REAL Barack Obama because your campaign had the goods on him, but couldn’t use it. Shame, shame shame!

    • http://! Clinton Fan
      • NO NObama

        thanks

      • http://www.TheOtherDemocrats.com FloridaEx-Dem

        And, am I the only one who find’s it an odd coincidence that they’re letting BO’s Grandmother ‘out of the closet’ after holding her hostage all these years, just as Andy Martin files his suit and just as he’s lost a few points in the polls?

        Will Obama do ANYTHING to get elected?

        • AnninCA

          Oh please……he should visit her when she’s dying.

          end of story.

          This is not a political move. It’s reported politically…..

          but this is the woman who raised him, for better or worse.

          I personally have imagined that he had terrific conflics emotionally with his mother at her death. She was a complete flake, from the story. She abandoned her kids for men, like so many other women. Plus, how confusing….she’s an “intellectual.” That doesn’t mean she wasn’t a complete emotional codependent.

          She drug him through heck.

          This grandmother is the real mother, the one he even got to throw under the bus. You can do that to your real mother. They take it.

          *haha

          I don’t know why Michelle isn’t involved. Not my business.

  • Chicago Joe

    I had the very same thought. Making sure granny doesn’t talk or dealing with some “details.” Quite a coincidence, don’t you think?

    • Kathy

      If she is as sick as they say she is why does he announce on Monday that he will leave the trail Thursday? Days matter if this truly is as dire as he says it is. His supporters have him up for sainthood (which is hard to do when you’re already the Messiah) just for visiting a sick relative. That’s what you’re supposed to do. I bet even Joe the Plumber who would somehow have to come up with the money for airfare would do it. Obama didn’t visit his mother on her deathbed. I guess he didn’t need votes then. Something fishy is going on here.

  • DisenfranchisedVoter

    Wow! That was a great commercial. Probably the best I’ve seen from the McCain camp so far that focuses on the issues. He needs to air that in every Latino community across the nation. Latinos who voted for Hillary need to feel more comfortable with rejecting the fraud who is now the Democratic nominee. Good for McCain for attempting to reach out to Hillary supporters.

  • mimi

    If the truth be told, you could make this same ad with AAs. Unfortunately, very few would want to be this brutally honest.

    Just the facts…. just the facts! He’s done zippo, NADA!

    • lark

      He would do more for Latino’s than what he would do for blacks. At least he is on record that he wants to give illegal aliens driver licenses and want to do some kind of amnesty. And what’s funny is that both of those things go against what AAs would like him to do. So all the blacks are flocking to vote for him but most of everything he’ll do will go against their best interest. But no one can tell them anything anymore. They are blinded with Obama.

  • Chicago Joe

    Uppity, this is true of everyone not in his circle—he is more of a celeb than a true advocate for anyone except himself and his posse.

  • kinthenorthwest

    Looks like he not leaving until Thurs.
    If Granny sick–Why not first plane out???

    • Chicago Joe
    • NO NObama

      dont think the hearing is set until thursday or friday

      • Hank

        Hopefully, FoxNews follows him to Hawaii, or better get there first and stalk him. Let’s see where he goes.

    • http://firefox McAnnie Carmel Baracuda

      kinthenorthwest: I had exactly the same thought. Why, if her health is failing…and at her age, would he not go immediately? He can make speeches from Hawaii and he only has one typical white Granny. Methinks it’s more about that darn nonexistent birth certificate.

      • lark

        First of all, lets talk about bad judgment.

        This Obama is a U.S. Senator. He’s have had his own plane for months now. And he has a few dollars. Why couldn’t he say to granny – common granny I’ll take you to Chicago and place you in a fine nursing home there close to ‘us’ where Michelle and the girls can go see you more often and take good care of you.

        OBAMA = BAD JUDGMENT EVERY TIME = but lets elect him President to screw our whole country. The only thing he knows how to do is run a campaign.

        • Hank

          That is so true, he can’t take care of his own. Why? do people think he will take care of them. Let’s not forget his brother, and now his grandmother who he could have done what Lark has just written. Bring her to Chicago where Michelle and the girls can go see her and make sure she is taken care with LOVE. BAD JUDGMENT.

    • lark

      He needs to tell Biden to shut his mouth.

      DOUBLE ALERT.

      Biden will stay behind and for two or three solid days he will be the only spokesperson for the campaign. Gaffe prone and slippery slope Biden will have the field of reporters and campaign speeches all for himself.

      Barack will be graying faster than Carter and he will have not only nightmare and stomach illness, he will not be able to sleep for three days knowing that he left Biden back here to open his mouth and put his whole leg in it. Ha ha ha.

      ‘Barack you screwed up when you chose Biden. Face it.’

      All Gov. Palin has to do is challenge Biden with a few questions from her podium and watch Biden slip and slide Obama’s campaign to the dump.

    • PamFlorida

      Good question. If someone close to me was that ill, I’d be on the first flight available.
      Problem is, he is barnstorming FL. Mon. & Tues with Clinton (At another college, his favorite venue).
      Either his Grandmother isn’t that sick, he doesn’t feel the urgency, or it’s a cover to prevent disclosure of info he wants to suppress.

  • http://Q Diana L. C.

    I saw this one before. I am still very upset with Richardson–what a sell out!

  • barry bums a ciggie

    what’s up about granny? I had a dream about his granny last night spilling the beans…it was a dream, right?

    • Chicago Joe
    • TxDi

      Yes, that was a dream (spilling the beans).
      Supposedly, according to Fox News his granny is very ill and has suddenly taken a turn for the worse and he will be gone for a couple of days.
      Poor woman, no doubt all of his BS is probably causing her to fall ill and fear of the truth being found out. I hope he never threatened her.

  • http://Q Diana L. C.

    I had to go copy/paste this link. I hope you can get it. It’s from a Cuban point of view:

    I just don’t know how to include the link, so I hope it works if you copy/paste it.

    uppity- out here in my parts of texas, most latinos are pumas. 3 generations of democrats in my family are voting mccain. we had a family reunion a couple of months ago and everyone is voting mccain, great-aunts in their 80′s, cousins, young and old. we are voting republican for the first time ever. sad.

      welcome aboard neighbor! Austin here, voted JMac today, thank God your family has the sense to pick the better choice, I hope and pray it’s like that everywhere :)

    Tomorrow I have an “on the ground” post about what’s going on in NM…let me tell you, southern NM was hit with a triple punch this weekend by the Obama crowd…
    Latest news is that McCain might be coming in on Saturday….

    I’ll try to post tomorrow AM (I have an early morning drs. appointment) in case I can’t get to the computer, here’s the link …it will be the top story….

      I know this may sound like a silly question but any chance that NM goes red??

  • http://JohnMcCain.com Galt, Master Thrall of Planet Triskelion

    OT: As reported earlier my tinfoil hat was buzzing with anticipation but I had no idea why. Is the sudden trip to Hawaii by The Precious related to Andy Martin being there? Maybe this is why sparks were flying off my hat? :mrgreen:

    Sen. Barack Obama will take off two days from his campaign this week, less than two weeks before Election Day, for an urgent visit to his ailing grandmother in Hawaii, the Democratic presidential candidate’s campaign announced …

    Hawai’i Supreme Court asked to issue emergency writ opening secret Obama birth files

    Popcorn anyone? :mrgreen:

    • NO NObama

      i hear he is going there with a duffel bag full of cash…. not for granny :D

      • lark

        How much could the Philadelphia ‘judger’ be asking before he makes a decision – any decision? Did he go on vacation or is his whole family on a trip around the world by this time?

      • WestPalm2008

        I sense photo-op.

        Poor typical white dying granny, in the hospital.

        Obama holding her hand.

        Broadcast pictures around the world. The old lady vote hoping to be bagged. Commentators gushing about the symbolism. How can no one see how GREAT Obama is?! Oh the tingle…..

  • Artemis

    After watching this video, I began to wonder– who has Obama ever really helped? (taxpayers’ funds funneled to organizations such as ACORN don’t count) I’m talking actual improvements in the lives of any of the citizens of Chicago or Illinois or the U.S. – can someone name anyone, anywhere? I believe his half-brother in Kenya is still waiting for some show of brotherly love.

    • jwrjr

      Obama only helps Obama.

  • http://firefox McAnnie Carmel Baracuda

    The Republican Party is the only choice to the Obamacrat Socialist Party. It has been a pleasant surprise though…no women being insulted or demeaned (from their side anyway). Working people are respected and allowed to speak…it’s what I always thought the Democratic Party was…guess not.

    • http://JohnMcCain.com Galt, Master Thrall of Planet Triskelion

      We will have to clean house of the D party once The Precious loses. In their current state they more resemble the National Socialist German Workers Party of the last century.

        Galt, do you also make comments in the RMN? If not…go there. we need you.

          • suzanne

            There is a Galt at RMN (Rocky Mnt. News) who has the same style comments. Must be your lost twin. Same style, good comments.

            • http://JohnMcCain.com Galt, Master Thrall of Planet Triskelion

  • MrMike

    What has Barack Obama done to Chicago? Not much as far as cleaning up the corruption.
    That’s why Team Obama is attacking Sarah Palin hammer and tongs. Every politician gets elected promising to clean things up, Sarah is one of the few who has kept that promise.

  • http://none maq

    posted the UTUBE video on Craigslist. gave it to the POC (person of color) forum and politics world.

  • MoniQue

    Obamba only cares about his majates.

    He doesn’t have a CLUE about what Latinos y Latinas care about.

    All he knows is to talk the talk on color and that is all.

    EARTH TO OBAMBA: it’s not COLOR tha concerns the Latino communities; your rhetoric is BULLSHEVIK!

    MCCAIN-PALIN 2008!

  • Faye

    Thank you Uppity,
    This was a very informative video.
    I have enjoyed this website. The articles have been great and the commentators have mostly been respectful ( with the exception of the trolls).
    Since one party is shutting down any conversation with any dissenting views and the other one is listening, why not go with gusto to the listening party’s planning meetings and see if some changes can be worked out? I know from visiting some GOP websites that many of them want changes too.Some of them seem to be leaning to a more libertarian fiscal conservative foundation and I think they would like your input and support. Just my observation and opinion.

  • Ophelia

    The video is fantastic. Please, use all technical means to send it around the world, especially to our left wing and hypocrite europeans (I am black and swiss!)Hussein Obama would be laughed at in any european country,if he only dared expressing his intention to become president or prime minister. Not to mention the arab countries! Before Europeans even thought about, Arabs, just after the birth of Islam, were operating razzias in black african villages, in order to rape,kill, kidnap children, and women and enslave them. Before Islam, they used to do the same in the Balkans and south-slavish regions.Until now, blacks in arab countries, no matter which level of education they reach, still belong to the lowest classes of their societies.Even in North Africa! But, when it comes to support a trojan horse far away,for instance in America,which they want to see destroyed or islamized, they are ready to forget their atavic racism. Beware, arabic racism against blacks is worse than any other kind of racism.If not why, given their centuries of advance in enslaving black africans ( they taught the portuguese, spaniards and french slave traders how to do it!),are there less black africans in arab countries than blacks in America?Because Arabs systematically used to castrate a precise proportion of black male children, in order to control their numbers. Just like cattle owners do! Europeans,even in their worst days, never thought about that!
    Conclusion:seeing all these black americans converting to Islam with the argument that white people have made them suffer too much, drives me mad.Malcolm X wept in Mecca during his first pilgrimage, once he noticed that pilgrims were categorized in “non-white”, non-arabs”, red-skin north africans, etc… Blacks are still treated there as subhumans, unless they are born from the adulterous union of a prince with a sudanese slave,like Prince Bandar.After all, Saudi Arabia means black arabia. Anyway in Mecca,they still are thousands of black saudis whose only job, every year, is to sweep the dirt left by the others muslims and carry on their backs obese arab women who cannot walk. That is the reason why I hate Long Legged Mac Daddy alias Barack Hussein Obama, that fake christian (he told People Magazine in june 2008, that he and his family never celebrate christmas).

    • tzada

      I agree with you 100% and I have been trying to tell people since Feb when I woke up. Thank you for giving me more understanding.

      Arabs call black people abd which means slave. Why would 4 million blacks in the USA convert to Islam. Why bow down to the race and religion that lead to the downfall of your proud heritage? Why support a man whose ancestry as a African American is dubious? Can you risk your future for a few dollars in his “spread the wealth” empty promissory, buy the vote rhetoric?

      Here are the words of a famous Arab philosopher Ibn Khaldun “The only people who accept slavery are the Negroes, owing to their low degree of humanity and their proximity to the animal stage”

      Note: These are not my thoughts but Arab quotes

      Every person of every race should study the roots of slavery. Blacks were not the only race that were enslaved by Arabs. In other countries blacks are still being captured, killed or castrated and enslaved today. Right now blacks in America are being preyed upon by Islam. It is my belief they will be used to gain power and then enslaved anew.

      All this to the great amusement to Islamic countries who will swoop in for the final kill.

      Why would the DNC and Barack Obama invite the Muslim Brotherhood to appear at the convention in Denver? The same Muslim Brotherhood who vowed to destroy America from the inside. Why?

      Hello there fellow Americans they have handed us the road map marked the road to America destruction. Many have already stepped upon the path, racing for the rainbow. They never notice that the pot of gold called spreading the wealth rests on a slippery slope.

      “But generally, it should come as no surprise to anyone save the most cloistered third-world fantasists, that a society which discriminates against sex, religion, ethnicity, language, nation, tribe, and family is not likely to have very progressive attitudes about race. Arab society, like many others, has a race problem. For instance, abd, or slave, is a word commonly used to refer to blacks, regardless of a man’s stature, or his faith.” by unknown

      We already see this happening with the New Democratic Party. The Nancy Polosi’s and the Campbell Browns are the Judas goats.

      • Ophelia

        Thank you, Tzada.
        Now, in order to bring more water to our river mill, please go to the YouTube site of AtlahWorldwide and watch the video the black and anti-Obama preacher Rev.James Davis Manning released on October the 21st 2008 (some hours ago) and called “Colin Piss-Poor Powell”. No need to be white, nor a racist of any kind to hate Barack Hussein Obama. Liars and frauds have no colour. They just are liars an frauds, and Obama is their chief. No need to be american either.I am not. I was born a princess in Africa.I live since 46 years in Europe and am swiss national since 35 years.But we cannot stay out of the presidential elections in America, because the media are continuously bombing us with comments, reports and polls about them.Alas,here,almost all the newspapers and tv-channels, even if they belong to billionaires and weapon manufacturers (like in France:49% to Dassault, 47% to Lagardère) are following the “mots d’odre” of left wing parties, unions and other anti-americans. Not to mention the progressive surrendering of a big part of the continent to Islam (BBC).Muslims can build mosques everywhere, while we christians are not allowed to do the same in the countries where their false religion, but real cult ,is dominant. Anyway, just like it is happening in the USA since the beginning of the campaign, the major “sellout” media only give us news of their choice, and manipulate the people through lies and propaganda bias:The New-York Times (with its french antenna “Le Monde”),CNN,NBC,The BBC… you know them. According to them, a majority of europeans support Hussein Obama. That is absolutely not true. Oh no! Not all europeans, whether black, purple, white or red,would like to see Barack Hussein Obama become president of the USA! Those like me, a journalist, who want to know what is really going on in America, have only Internet, which leads us to hundreds of sources wich are not even cited in our press.
        Please, go to Atlah and… warmest regards.

    Is this the same granny he tossed under the bus?

  • Obama’s lies

    I can’t figure out the birth certificate.

    There are now two lawsuits. It makes me wonder, if he has a legit one, why is he stalling, why not just produce it? On the other hand, if this is really an issue (if he doesn’t have the BC), why isn’t Fox covering it?

    It doesn’t make sense either way. Does anyone have any thoughts about that?

    • LLL

      No one will cover the birth certificate story until the judge makes a decision. Although I expect Huffington to attack the “right wing smears” if this gains enough traction.

    • tzada

      I think there are 3 lawsuits. The other is in Washington.

    I’ve been disappointed to see the Latino support for Obama in my state. McCain is the only one to actually have tried to get a decent immigration law through. It failed, but at least he took a risk and tried. He clearly understands the issues.

    Oh well…

  • Hank

    The only thing Obama has done for the Lation community is steal Cesar Chavez’s slogan. Si Se Puede, Yes we can. Isn’t that what his whole campaign is about.

    • AnninCA

      True…..I think he’s wishy-washy on the immigration issue.

  • Hank

    OMG, Obama holding a Jobs Summit, and on his panel is Richardson. What a joke… Why doesn’t he have a townhall meeting with McCain. This is so ridiculous you can see Richardson going through his role. This summit should have been done on Broadway or Disneyworld inside Fantasy Land.

  • Karma

    Great video!

    The only thing that Obama has done for the Latino community in Illinois.

    Was try to make sure their population wasn’t properly represented within govt. He wanted to make sure their seats of power didn’t infringe on black seats of power despite their increasing numbers.

    That is suppression of democracy…and something Obama knows well.
