“Joe the Plumber” Smears Originated from Ohio State Officials

[If you heard Truthteller's radio show tonight, you know about this hideous assault on Joe The Plumber. Why this isn't a national scandal, and the lead story on ALL media outlets, is beyond me. Also: I'm popping up here to add that, since we're changing servers again, this post may disappear and reemerge, but your comments may go "poof" at some point. Please don't be alarmed. It's part of the migration to the new server and the boost we need for all of our traffic. Hopefully (fingers crossed), we'll be past this come Monday or Tuesday at the latest. Now, for Matthew's excellent report. - SusanUnPC]

obama-plumber-385_415842a.jpgWithin 48 hours of Joe the Plumber merely asking Senator Barack Obama a question in his Ohio neighborhood, Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher’s government-held records were accessed by three different agencies: The Office of Ohio Attorney General, the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency, and the Toledo Police Department.

McCain spokesman Paul Lindsay points out that “It’s outrageous to see how quickly Barack Obama’s allies would abuse government power in an attempt to smear a private citizen who dared to ask a legitimate question.”

Obama’s campaign is quoted as saying the charge is simply a sign of desperation by the McCain campaign.

State officials deny the attorney general’s office itself was involved but do acknowledge that an investigation into the three potentially “criminal” invasions of privacy was underway. No suspects were yet identified.

    Of course, of course, of course – broken record! Every legitimate question and criticism is “a sign of desperation.”

    Didn’t he say the exact same thing about Hillary before she whooped his ass?

    • fif

      Either “desperation,” racism, or “negative” politics. They’re like a broken record we’ve been listening to for months. Now, that TV reporter who dared to ask Joe Biden some tough questions has been officially banned by the Obama campaign. And these guys think they’re fit to take on foreign dictators? They whine and cry at every turn. Hillary needs to give them a master class in strength and resilience. Or better yet, bring Hillary back.

      • Andrew

        It is like Groundhogs day every day. Obama’s campaign does something wrong, Obama says its a distraction, the media says its a distraction, the Obots say it is a distraction [and actually believe it!].

      • galandrien

        What is Obama going to do–Ban the United Nations when the question one of is policies or issue a statement they disagree? Is he going to have his media dogs dig up all of the dirt from Sarkozy’s divorce if the French President ever asks him a question during a diplomatic gathering?

        Obama runs away from things he doesn’t like and he doesn’t like being forced to tell the truth or explain what he believes and plans to enforce on America. I am pretty sure that doesn’t earn him my vote.

        • Andrew

          Yep, yep, yep. Obama will do all of that and more. Public executions for people who disagree with him. Michelle will be the execution and will use an AK-47. The White House lawn will be turned into a house of horrors. Lawmakers who disagree with “Dear Leader” will disappear and be replaced by Obots. Nancy Pelosi will lead the Inquisition team looking for dissidents.

        UPDATE: The McCain campaign conducted a conference call today with former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former Ohio Attorney General Betty Montgomery on the subject of the reports that there may have been illegal conduct/governmental abuse of power involved in the potentially illegal accessing of Joe the Plumber’s records. I have put that conference call on YouTube so that people may listen to it and share the information with others:

          Interesting!!! Hope Nobama is implicated. Even so, the media will probably say he was tricked into accepting the illegally obtained information and that only racists will accuse him of wrong doing.

      I’m curious to see if the RNC brinks for charges to the Attorney General’s office abusing it’s office for political reasons which would violate Federal Election Laws.

      I imagine the US Supreme Court would love to review this tied to concerns with voter fraud.

        Why did these people only get, well they got no punishment at all…..

        Thirteen campaign workers for Barack Obama yesterday yanked their voter registrations and ballots in Ohio after being warned by a prosecutor that temporary residents can’t vote in the battleground state.
        A dozen staffers – including Obama Ohio spokeswoman Olivia Alair and James Cadogan, who recently joined Team Obama – signed a form letter asking the Franklin County elections board to pull their names from the rolls.
        The letter – a copy of which was obtained by palestra.net, a Fox News affiliate – came a day after prosecutor Ron O’Brien publicly urged out-of-state campaign workers for both Obama and John McCain to “examine your conscience” before the elections board beings begins opening absentee ballots today.
        Earlier in the week, O’Brien spoke with lawyers for both camps and urged them to make sure their staffs met permanent-residency rules, or face possible felony charges.
        Also pulling his ballot yesterday was Hofstra University grad Jake Smith, an Obama volunteer who had voted in Knox County, Ohio.
        On Thursday, O’Brien cut a deal with 13 out-of-staters, including four from New York, who tossed out their already-cast ballots and admitted they didn’t meet residency requirements.

    • Muppity

      The Columbus Dispatch article linked to in this post states clearly:

      It has not been determined who checked on Wurzelbacher, or why.

      The McCain campaign claims to know who did it.

      McCain spokesman Paul Lindsay points out that “It’s outrageous to see how quickly Barack Obama’s allies would abuse government power in an attempt to smear a private citizen who dared to ask a legitimate question.”

      It’s just as likely that it was McCain people sloppily trying to vet Wurzelbacher after McCain used him in the debate.

      • POdVet

        And then the McCain campaign leaked this illegally obtained information to the press?!? What the hell are you smoking? Who did it is NOT hard to find out if they launch an official investigation. Ok this record was accessed using this persons access…suspect identification complete. From there they need to find out why. I mean seriously, finding out who did it will take less time than Obama spends going “um uhh uhh” when the teleprompter is off.

  • Tumby J

    It’s ridiculous that these Obamabots drunk on power accessed the records of Joe the Plumber, one of the candidates for the highest office in the land. It’s unfair to allow anyone this kind of illegal access to those people seeking to run for President.

    Doesn’t matter if this gets investigated – the Obamabots will realize their mistake when Ohio elects Joe as the candidate most qualified to lead this country!!

            Andrew,
            Get this part straight. They are the candy ass punks, not us. There is no hell that they can imagine which will match what happens to them if they open the dance. They know it at the higher levels and fear it. That’s Obama’s “Cling” comments.
            Joe will be fine. Assassinations would lead to retribution and frankly, they do not have the firepower to play that game.
            Intimidation works only if you think that what they can do will exceed what you can do. They have very small imaginations.

            • Andrew

              I forget but that black lady from Texas, the Hillary supporter, just dropped dead. Then there was the murder of that Hillary supporter in Arkansas. Mess with Obama and he does use a gun or some poison. It is his tactic, make them disappear or discredit them completely.

            Venezuela’s Chavez wants to jail rival
            Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez threatened on Saturday to imprison his main political rival, intensifying a campaign against
            a man he calls a crime boss just a month before he faces tough regional elections

            “I am determined to put Manuel Rosales behind bars. A swine like that has to be in prison,” Chavez said.
            Chavez railed against Rosales at a gathering of businessmen in Zulia, urging the audience to vote against his rival for allegedly plotting to assassinate him, running crime gangs and illegally acquiring cattle ranches.
            Chavez provided no specific evidence for the charges against the main leader of a fragmented opposition who has solid support in the oil-producing west of the OPEC nation.
            Human rights groups say Chavez has increasingly exerted control over branches of power such as the judiciary and become intolerant of critics in almost a decade in power.
            The former soldier typically takes to the offensive to stem a rise in support for potential rivals.

  • jackie

    It was so obvious that there was an intense smear campaign underway immediately after Joe the Plummer was used in the debate. Of course agency’s were used. It’s the Obama teams trademark. We could go down the list of people who have been smeared that spoke up against Obama, starting with Hillary. They do research and even if they can’t find anything, they simply make it up. Then the media runs with it.

    McCain spokesman Paul Lindsay points out that “It’s outrageous to see how quickly Barack Obama’s allies would abuse government power in an attempt to smear a private citizen who dared to ask a legitimate question.”

    It appears this alleged abuse of power may be more widespread than just against Joe the Plumber.

    I’ll be dragging my ass no matter what to the polling place on November 4 to put an end to this nightmare.

    Keep up the good fight, we will prevail!

      Why does Ohio use it’s Highway patrol for things like this? Why do I think that this man didn’t threaten her with death? Why do I think it will turn out to be not what he really said? Why do I think there can be no truth found in Brunner’s conduct in anything? Why did Obama say it was good that “they” had control of the electronic voting machines in Ohio?

      Man charged with threatening Ohio elections chief
      THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
      Friday, October 24th 2008, 10:43 PM
      COLUMBUS, Ohio – An Ohio man has been charged with making a death threat against the state’s top elections official.
      The State Highway Patrol says Dana McArtor was charged Friday with intimidation in a telephoned threat to the office of Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner (BROO’-nur).
      Brunner spokesman Jeff Ortega says the call last Friday threatened to kill the secretary of state. Her office says it has been inundated with threats during a busy season of voter lawsuits and alleged registration irregularities.
      The 51-year-old Columbus man remains jailed. He is to be arraigned Saturday.
      A message was left at a phone listing for the address on his court record. The record didn’t indicate whether he had an attorney.

        To be expected when judges rule that voters have “no Constitutional standing” as in the Berk v Obama case.
        We’re supposed to be window dressing only, our votes ornamental without any real clout and our purpose is to observe this circus without interfering with the show.

        And we’ve been a naughty group of critics who intend to use our Constitutional vote to get rid of the clown act, if not the entire circus! And although our votes were ruled unnecessary to the appointment of a president in 2000 and 2004, it’s time we take our duty seriously

        to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government,

        since those guarding the doors of our democracy seem to be busy opening them for our enemies.

        Democracy and Soertoro/Obama are incompatible!

      • tcartwright

        McArtor is a registered Republican, according to public records.

        My guess is he listens to right wing radio so much that it turns his brains to mush.

        Amazing that threatening people’s lives is apparently copacetic discussion of politics and government.

      Rove gave her a nice pat for doing a good job for McCain today, btw. I agreed wholeheartedly with him.

      The smears on Palin were directly tied to Obama. I don’t know if this nonsense is.

      I do know that the overall picture of attacking and smearing a guy who dares to ask a hypothetical question was a low point in the Obama campaign. And he definitely participated. He was derisive on the campaign trail.

      And I fail to see how in the world he thought that would win over blue-collar voters.

      Just baffled me, anyway…..

      There were so many other legitimate ways to counter the situation than that.

      I think that was a HUGE gaffe on his part, bigger than Bidens.

      The “desperation” mantra comes directly from 0bama and from his campaign – as well as from minions and surrogates, of course – because it fuels the “inevitability” theme barky’s trying to run out the clock with.

      He did the same thing to Hillary – started right after Iowa and continued throughout the primaries, even when she was cleaning his clock – “barky is inevitable – all criticism is futile and desperate.”

  • ritamary

    If Obama is elected, Obots would be in total charge of two branches of government. We are getting some indication of what an Obama presidency would be like.

    The invasion of Joe the Plumber’s privacy amounts to a swift reprisal against Joe for daring to question Dear Leader. Obama and his followers are not only willing to attack political opponents and their families in the most vile manner, but private citizens are now fair game also.

          Obama disrespects soldiers at every turn and many other uniformed officers of this Nation. Police are asked to stand behind the bus so as not to be seen with “the one” a dead soldiers family request obama not use their son as a campaign tool and he refuses to relent, he accuses our men and women of the armed services in Afghanistan of simply bombing civillians.
          and now he wants to turn you into another one for him to disrespect and use for his own advancement.

          That’s from the group responsible for the project that did the videos.

  • Jason

    If you ask me the Obama campaign’s obsession with calling everything the McCain campaign says “an act of desperation” is an act of desperation in itself.

    For the last couple of weeks they’ve known that, despite highly biased polls giving Obama varying leads, the race is a lot tighter.

    With only days to go, they know that there’s nothing else that is going to give them a mega-boost to guarantee a landslide win. They’ve already had the one and only boost they were going to get – the economic collapse. They knew that the public largely blames Republicans for the crisis and that their pals in the MSM were never going to promote the truth, that Democrats are actually more responsible.

    But since then, McCain and Palin have done everything they can to hammer home the truth. They’ve made inroads in convincing the public that Obama’s tax plan spells disaster. They’ve highlighted the difference between their plan and Obama’s, which is that theirs is about strengthening the economy by creating the best conditions for job creations….and thanks to Joe the Plumber, the public has begun to wise up to the fact that Obama’s plan is about spreading existing wealth around while making it harder for big business to create new jobs.

    They’ve seen McCain cut into Obama’s lead and it terrifies them. Their only hope has been to try and keep the nation’s focus on the economy and to keep chanting things like “failed policies of the last 8 years” and “McCain wants tax cuts for the rich” over and over again.

    But they didn’t figure on Joe Biden making his biggest gaffe of all – warning the nation that since Obama was inexperienced, he would be “tested” by our enemies. This immediately reminded the public about the issue of national defense and McCain’s superiority.

    They hoped that they could freeze time at the exact moment that the economy tanked, and carry that boost through to election day. It hasn’t worked out like that, so they know their only hope is to endlessly promote the illusion that they’re safely on top and McCain is “desperate.” It’s all about convincing voters not to bother with McCain but to join the “winning team” instead. So every time McCain attacks them on something legitimate they say it’s a “sign of desperation.”

    The only trouble is, in doing so they expose their own nervousness and desperation. They’re so worried about their tenuous, fragile lead that they don’t even want to get into the debate any more. All they can do is attack McCain for being “negative” and accuse his supporters of “hatred” and call everyone “desperate.” It’s pathetic.

And they don’t have to make anything up. Its is obvious confidential government records were accessed to harm Joe. Throw in The Precious’ FISA vote and all of America will be wearing tinfoil hats imagining god knows what. This could be devastating to The Precious.

      According to some theories TV’s can be used from the other side to peer into your homes and hear what you are saying. Telephones do not have to be off the hook for someone to listen in on your home. Fact or fiction?

      This I do know. While I was host at an internet gaming site I learned first hand that a computer can take your picture even if you do not have a video cam. Its a long story so I won’t go into it, but it happened to me.

    If Obama is elected and we have a Democratic Congress, we will be living in a “Police State” within a year.

      North Korea like. We will have to call him “Dear Leader” and he will create his own reality. Maybe he will declare that the sky is green and the grass is purple. Everyone will be forced to believe it or else.

        I registered http://www.thedearleader.us a while back with intent to put something up like this page at http://www.thedearleader.com. So far, just never gotten around to it so the page simply points to my blog. Maybe I should spend a few minutes and put up a page–some of the pictures from my 12 Days Before the Election post might be fitting. Any suggestions?

          That picture of him emerging from the Willamette River with the roses and the unicorn in the background.

          The video where he say that a light will shine and you will be compelled to vote for Barack Obama.

          If you can find it, the whole picture of the blue page that was on his site, with the eagle turned away and standing on the flag. Now, if you go to barackobama.com, this screen flashes by at an almost subliminal speed before the mainscreen loads. I caught it with PrntScrn but–now it has been chopped a little. The first one I saw long ago was truly upsetting. The eagle was clearly in retreat. Now it looks a little more like a heraldic supporter for other design elements.

        Confirmed: MSM Holds Video Of Barack Obama Attending Jew-Bash & Toasting a Former PLO Operative… Refuse to Release the Video!

        Introduction: The LA Times is holding a video that shows Barack Obama celebrating with a group of Palestinians who are openly hostile towards Israel. Barack Obama even gives a toast to a former PLO operative at this celebration. If the American public saw this side of Barack Obama he would never be elected president.
        But, the media refuses to release this video.

        LA Times writer Peter Wallsten wrote about Barack Obama’s close association with former Palestinian operative Rashid Khalidi back in April.
        Wallsten discussed a dinner held back in 2003 in honor of Khalidi, a critic of Israel and advocate for Palestinian rights.
        Barack Obama has denied his close association with Khalidi, too.

        According to Wallsten the evening not surprisingly turned into a classic Jew-bash:

        “During the dinner a young Palestinian American recited a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism in its treatment of Palestinians and sharply criticizing U.S. support of Israel. If Palestinians cannot secure their own land, she said, “then you will never see a day of peace.”

        One speaker likened “Zionist settlers on the West Bank” to Osama bin Laden, saying both had been “blinded by ideology.”
        Barack Obama also praised the former PLO operative during the event.
        And, Obama confessed that his family often shared dinner with the Khalidis:

        His many talks with the Khalidis, Obama said, had been “consistent reminders to me of my own blind spots and my own biases… It’s for that reason that I’m hoping that, for many years to come, we continue that conversation — a conversation that is necessary not just around Mona and Rashid’s dinner table,” but around “this entire world.”

        …The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.
        Khalidi and the Obamas were great friends in Chicago and often shared meals together.
        By the way, Khalidi was also best friends with Bill Ayers.

        On Wednesday I talked with Peter Wallsten from the Los Angeles Times about the article on Obama and Khalidi:

        Wallston was one of the few mainstream media reporters to report on this radical Obama associate.

        Wallston said that the article was written after he watched video taken at the Khalidi going away party. When I asked him about the video he said that as far as he was concerned he was through with the story.

        I asked him if he was planning on releasing this video of Obama toasting the radical Khalidi at this Jew-bash. He told me he was not releasing the video. He also would not comment on his source for the video. Wallston also said he did not know if Khalidi’s good friend Bill Ayers was at the event or not.

        So, there you have it.

        The LA Times has video of Obama toasting a former PLO operative at a Jew-bash but will not release the video.

        This is outrageous.

        Obviously, this video would do great damage to Obama who struggles with Jewish voters due to his circle of close anti-Semitic friends.
        Maybe this is the reason it is not being released?

        More on Khalidi—
        Not only does Barack Obama’s church of 20 years support Hamas and Hezbollah but Barack Obama also has a longtime close friendship and financial association with suspected former PLO operative and Israel hater Rashid Khalidi.
        Earlier this month Sean Hannity dared to report on Barack and Michelle Obama’s radical associate and friend, Rashid Khalidi:

        Barack Obama funnelled thousands of dollars of cash to Rashidi’s anti-Israel Foundation through his work on the Woods Fund.

        In 2000, Rashid Khalidi, a former PLO operative who justified Palestinian terrorism as contributing to “political enlightenment,” threw a fundraiser for his friend Barack Obama.

        Although he is described as a former PLO operative, via Free Republic, this is what Rashid Khalidi has to say about Palestinian terrorism against Jews– he said anti-Israel violence contributed to “political enlightenment”:

        On Palestinian violence. Khalidi glorifies anti-Israel violence as contributing to “political enlightenment”[vii] and unsurprisingly admires those who carry it out. His loyalty to Palestinian terrorist groups run so deep that he actually dedicated his 1986 valentine to the PLO, Under Siege, to “those who gave their lives . . . in defense of the cause of Palestine and independence of Lebanon.”[viii] The book whitewashes PLO violence against Israelis and Lebanese, as well as the Syrian occupation.
        Khalidi and Ayers were practically best friends.
        And, both Ayers and Obama signed the commemorative book given to Khalidi at his going away party:

        In Chicago, the Khalidis founded the Arab American Action Network, and Mona Khalidi served as its president. A big farewell dinner was held in their honor by AAAN with a commemorative book filled with testimonials from their friends and political allies. These included the left wing anti-war group Not In My Name, the Electronic Intifada, and the ex-Weatherman domestic terrorists Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers. (There were also testimonials from then-state Senator Barack Obama and the mayor of Chicago.)
        It’s hard to imagine that the LA Times would hold onto a video of Sarah Palin praising an anti-Semitic radical and former PLO operative…
        But, that is today’s mainstream media.

        • C.S.

          If one copy is at the LA Times, there are more copies out there. With something this explosive, more would have been made even if there was only one copy of the original. Let’s hope it falls into the “wrong hands” and gets published somewhere public before 11/4.

  • IndieDogg

    Yes, Barry is right.

    We are desperate, to show the American public what this man (or Mouse — wait, is that why Mickey and Minnie are contributing to his campaign with untraceable credit cards — not it makes sense) is all about, underneath the facade of teflon that the DNC, his campaign and the MSM have erected around him.

  • Lee Ruth

    What about the TV station in Orlando, Florida that has been cut off by anyone from the Obama Campaign because the lady asked tough questions of Biden. This is scary.

    • Andrew

      She will go to a reeducation camp for further instructions on how to be a good citizen. “Dear Leader” will ensure that everyone follows his protocol. He will probably eliminate term limits and declare himself dictator for life.

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

      That TV station can now become a billboard against The Precious and his Brownshirt tactics.

  • pal3

    America deserved Obama.

    • Andrew

      No one deserves Obama. He is like wishing a deadly disease on someone. No one deserves a deadly disease. Still, people who vote for him are stupid.

      • Seattle Moss

        People that vote for Obama have a false hope that he will solve all their problems. Since he has changed his mind on everything and never has been pinned down on a position Obama is whatever you wish him to be.
        Oh.. how the real world catches up to people.
        If Obama steals the election his supporters will be angry when he breaks his promises
        If Obama loses these same people will riot.

        • pal3

          “If Obama steals the election his supporters will be angry when he breaks his promises”

          No they won’t, these people are in denial. If God told them, Obama is fraud they still won’t believe it. Obama got them believing that by voting for his hope and change, they will be a part of something special. That their vote will usher in a movement that will change the world. They can’t admit that they are wrong about Obama because they all think they are so evolved and enlighten that they can’t possibly be fooled.

          • jvsp

            How can God tell them Obama is a fraud when Obama is “god?”

          • Andrew

            I wonder if there would be a mass suicide if Obama loses. I can see all the bots lining up in the punch line for the real Kool-aid. They would take large gulps, lay down in the grass praying to the Obamessiah and then suddenly be struck with extreme pain as their body could no longer process oxygen and their brain starved to death [what brain you might ask]. Those who don’t drink the Kool-aid voluntarily will be compelled to with guns.

          • galandrien

            Yeah. Hitler told the German people they were going to be a part of something special too. Something that would change the world.
            the rhetoric is just too similiar.

  • Lee Ruth

    No we don’t.

  • Lee Ruth

    Funny… Obama and Biden won’t sit down with American reporters that ask tough questions, but they will sit down with leaders of rogue states. hmmmmmm

    • http://www.theindependentview.com Matthew Weaver

      There are fewer real reporters than there are leaders of rogue states. Anyway, for a celebrity like Obama, why lower himself to sit with a reporter when he can meet with ‘leaders’ he might consider his ‘peers’?

      • Andrew

        China was creepy during the Olympics. It was way too clean and the people looked like robots. Obama praised the way China looked and said we should look like them. He really said it. Some of the Chinese athletes look like they were about to be killed after a loss. REALLY SCARY.

    new zogby poll has McCain down by only 5.3 when the lead was 12 two days ago

      Polls are garbage. Zogby has been swinging around wildly and Gallup has been surging and dropping erratically. I don’t believe any of them.

      • Seattle Moss

        Did I hear you say the polls are garbage..

        I’m proud of you Andrew!

        • Andrew

          Yep. They keep flipping around so fast I don’t even look at them anymore. If a good poll comes out for McCain they quickly release a good poll for Obama. Craziness ensues. Now Geraldo is already suggesting Oprah for ambassador to Britain and Obama is already writing his inauguration address. I say, not so fast! The only polls that matter are in 9 days and from where I’m sitting, you are looking a little desperate breaking into people’s personal information. Is this a sign of things to come?

              If not..pollsters thought for sure Dewey was going to beat Truman..The Chicago Tribune was so confident that they printed the victory for Dewey before the results.
              Truman went to bed early and awoke the next day the victor

              McCain is Truman

              • Andrew

                I know exactly what you are talking about. I even know the slogans that Dewey ran against Truman: “To err is Truman” and “Had Enough?” Truman had to deal with the fractured Dem party and it looked like he was toast. Turned out that he won by a comfortable margin. Media was all bashing Truman though, running lengthy Op-eds about the trouble he had caused. Dewey was just like Nobama, smooth and full of crap. The same thing actually happened to Abraham Lincoln. He went to sleep thinking he had lost and woke up a winner. I hope I don’t have to go to sleep thinking Obummer won. I wouldn’t sleep.

                • Seattle Moss

                  Andrew..

                seattle — McCain is Truman

          • bemused

            I hope so! I had to take many courses in statistics to get the whole story of polls and their interpretation. It easily takes a year or more of time and testing to come up with a really good poll or psychological assessment, which is what a poll is. Consider the reliability of the SAT vs. Zogby. Day to day political polls at best can’t come closer to accurate than +/- 3 points. That’s why a 6 point spread is not meaningful by itself, and can reverse in 24 hours.

            • AnninCA

              Well, you earn MY respect. Anyone who can slog through statistics, gets to talk about that subject authoritatively. *haha

      • tzada

        James Zogby is personal friends with Obama and writes for HuffPo and has a Muslim paper. He was also a SD for Obama.

  • Kal

    Zogby endorsed Obama and he wanted to make it very close so that Obama Supporter can wakeup and go to the poll. Don’t believe any poll. THey are doing their bussness .

    Just work hard until McCain is elected

    • Andrew

      All the pollsters come on TV with that smirk on their face like they know they are full of excrement and they are proud of it. Even Rasmussen, who I used to respect, has gone all devious. Every time they show him he is smirking and I want to rip that smirk right off his face and say, BIG FAT LIAR. I want to know how much they pay these poll people off because I have heard at least 10 times that if you say you are a Dem voting for McCain they hang up and don’t finish the poll. I have also heard stories of people who get called repeatedly until they say Obama. One lady was arrested for saying that she didn’t like Obama. The poll people are dangerous.

      • tzada

        If I read Obama chart of expenses right he has paid 21,000,000 to or for polling

      • AnninCA

        That’s stupid. Rasmussen polls for Fox News.

  • pal3

    Why is everyone in the tank for Obama? What’s going on…this guy is the anti-Christ.

    • Andrew

      A better question to ask is where are all these Obama supporters? You hear that there are so many Obots but I only see a few. Even at my high school Obama only won by 100 votes out of 1400 students. The teachers however voted for O 55 to 22, dummies.

    • Andrew

      I believe 0 percent of it. Even if it’s true, she is a DIVA. If they let her off her leash she would rip Barky a new one. Pitbulls unite. Given that it probably isn’t true, I wouldn’t worry. CNN has been lying its ass off forever. My teachers at school actually think that CNN is the most fair news channel. I have to contain my laughter.

  • BJ

    Here’s another goodie from a liberal website (I’ve always liked during Bush years) with this headline:

    “Obama bids dying grandmother somber farewell”

    I thought she was home recovering from a broken hip? which story is true and if she’s really not dying.. when will the bullshit stop and the media own up to their biased corrupt crap!

    • Andrew

      The grandmother probably doesn’t even exist. It is probably a campaign ploy to make Obama seem more human. If she does exist, Obama probably either has her gagged and locked up in a tiny closet or on some tropical island without phones.

    • BJ

      I might clarify I “used to like” and used to read regularly.. I’ve pretty much given them all up now, rarely checking in..

      The guy is knocked unconscious and comes to in a ditch.
      Just as he sits up, he sees a sheriff’s deputy kneeling by his horse.
      “Broke your leg did you, ol’ hoss? Sorry,” and he pulls his pistol and shoots the horse. As the deputy turns, he sees the guy and walks over to him. “How are you sir,” he asks.

    You disgust me…you wasted my money….my time and emotions when you obviously had NO PLAN TO WIN….and every plan to hand it over to the DEMS.

    The collusion is obvious! Why else would you not bring up the fascist media for obama….

    OBama isn’t an American….you think that you’ld bring that up! NOTHING!!

    They are right…you are like Bush….you let the media crawl all over you and destroy America and YOU DO NOTHING!!!!!

    You politician make me sick….at time when WE need the truth and more interaction with our leaders we get even more BULL than ever!

    I’m sick you your granddaddy approach….we need a fighter for freedom and an intellectual whose actually for us not against us…….we don’t need a good ol’ granddaddy to tell us “oh we shouldn’t be afraid of obama….he’s a good guy”!?

    OBAMA’S A MARXIST TERRORIST FOR CHRIST SAKE….OH I FORGOT HE DOESN’T EVEN CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS AND SOON NEITHER WILL WE BE ABLE TO.

      “ALL BECAUSE YOU [McCain] ARE AFRAID TO BE MEAN!”

      You mean McCain isn’t willing to wade through the gutter and show no leadership. You mean McCain isn’t willing to exhort his followers to get in people’s faces. You mean McCain is being decent and acting honorable.

      It isn’t just whether or not you win, but HOW you win. In Obama’s case, he will do ANYTHING to win regardless of how.

      • Sally

        It isn’t just whether or not you win, but HOW you win. In Obama’s case, he will do ANYTHING to win regardless of how

        I appreciate what you’re saying and why….”if you don’t have honor you got nothing” etc.

        The problem is that we are obviously in an information war….WAR. When in war you gotta fight back.

        The other thing thats different than any other time in American history and hence makes it impossible to play by the “european” notion of galantry, honor, decency etc…..OBAMA is a trojoan horse MARXIST Islamicist….we don’t have time to look nice…we only have time to destroy the TRAITOR.

        Sorry for the pessimism people….its true that lots of you have worked hard to keep people like me feel somewhat hopeful sometimes…..THANKS.

        But unfortunately, my background (escape from the USSR) prevents me from seeing these people as HUMAN BEINGS….My hatrad of Marxism and Fascism is viceral and violent. I see only one end to this Traitor…..I’ll let you guys to your hopefulness…..me, I see the end of America unless we all get violently opposed to Obama and all that he represents in American politics….I want to spit in his ugly face and…..

        Please read “liberal Fascism” by J Goldberg….perhaps you’ll see just how low our chances are to provail…at least unless we true Americans smarten up fast and demand more from our leaders….more interaction with them (via computer etc). We need to get our kids to KNOW american real history so that identy politics, eurgenics, their betrayal, and Fascismt american style (ist implemented by Wilson and adopted by FDR and truman (a KKK member), Johnson etc) never happens again….the brainwashing has to stop If we are to retain our freedoms. We need to fight the current political establishment….enough with Politcal correctness …..it only leads to fascism……always. That’s why I’m so pessimistic….I want to wake people up NOW….the America we know is about to die.

      I was unaware the election had taken place, Sally.
      Please read McPalinHill’s link just above yours. Its a breath of fresh, optimistic air and I believe it sincerely.
      There will be ample time to redirect your rage if Obama gets elected. And believe me, I can DO rage, so I understand that your anger is real.
      Just please hang on to it a little longer. You might get to use it on Pelosi and Frank, and Biden and (enter name of your favorite selection here) instead.
      We can’t adequately plan what to do if Obama wins. There isn’t enough information. We CAN, however, plan what we will do when WE win.
      Try it. Its lots more fun. Who do you choose to be voted out after we drop Obama off at the depot?

        I wish you Americans, who have it all at stake with Obama bin Biden, would wake up and start using your God given ability to, feel urgency and HATE and act upon it with URGENCY every once in a while when it comes to your enemies(within bounds of our laws of course).

        These Marxist will kill you…kill you. Make no mistake….we have very little time left. They must be destroyed within the bounds of our laws and quick….every second Obama hangs around our kids he infects them with Marxism, anti-americanism, etc…and gains irrecoverable ground with them. Blah, Blah, Blah

        Think Staligrad massacre…..Slavs…its in our blood to be afraid and make sure we survive.

    Joe the Plumber asks Obama 1 question and he gets 10 satellite trucks parked on his lawn and reporters digging through his trash yet ONE reporter FINALLY shows up in front of Bill Ayers’ house to politely ask if it is time to apologize to America and the Domestic Terrorist quickly calls the police.

    Proving once again he is a pathetic coward just like Obama.

    Let’s do our part.

    Go here and start digging through Obama campaign expenses..that’s how we uncovered their “accidental mis-reporting” of ACORN’s subsidiary payment of $800k.

        no wonder the New York Times is losing money…

        americans have to rely on students for real journalism…

        at least we have some choice at the moment…

        i’m sure Dear Leader will shut those students down if he can steal enough votes…

    My objection to Obama’s on-line system is more of a philosophical point, I guess.

    I was mortified, personally, that this competition for dollars got started in the primary. I didn’t think that young people should be digging so deeply into their pockets for a politician, who might…then turn around and not deliver.

    We all have been through campaigns. We all know the game. Next comes the speech, “Well, the economy is obviously so bad, that I’ll have to postpone those tax cuts.”

    The moderators of the debates tried valiantly to bring some honest discussion about this into the campaign. Obama clearly decided….stick to the BS.

    Now, these young people have spent about what they will pay in taxes next year on electing him? That just seemed wrong. My favorite comments to hate from the Hillary campaign came when she had a good on-line month, and her manager said, “And these were people on fixed-incomes sending her money!” I thought right then, “Shut up, you dope. That’s nothing to brag about.”

    I don’t like this new “free-for-all” system, may the biggest campaign money raiser win.

    It over-persuaded the SD’s, in my opinion.
