To Win an Election and Lose Your Soul

Limbaugh: Obama%u2019s Nomination %u201CReally goes back to the fact that nobody had the guts to stand up and say no to a black guy.%u201D

By: Logan Murphy

On the August 19 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh said that %u201Cit is striking how unqualified [Sen. Barack] Obama is and, and how this whole thing came about with, within the Democrat [sic] Party. I think it really goes back to the fact that nobody had the guts to stand up and say no to a black guy.%u201D Limbaugh went on to say: %u201CI think this is a classic illustration here where affirmative action has reared its ugly head against them. It%u2019s the reverse of it. They%u2019ve, they%u2019ve ended up nominating and placing at the top of their ticket somebody who%u2019s not qualified, who has not earned it.%u201D Limbaugh added: %u201CIt%u2019s perfect affirmative action. And because of all this guilt and the historic nature of things, nobody had the guts to say, well, wait a minute, do we really want to do this?%u201D

Yes, someone should have told this young, uppity negro to **** and know his place in American society.

We knew long ago that the Republicans weren%u2019t going to go down without a fight and that this election cycle was going to yield some of the ugliest politics in modern history %u2014 this is what it looks like. The stench of desperation makes this even more pathetic, as Limbaugh and the party he so diligently carries water for, take their nose dive into the political dustbin.

Does McCain want to reinstate the draft?

By: SilentPatriot @ 6:20 PM - PDT

I know John McCain oftentimes doesn%u2019t speak for the McCain campaign, but someone in the press ought follow up on this immediately.


AUDIENCE MEMBER: If we don%u2019t reenact the draft I don%u2019t think we will have anyone to chase Bin Laden to the gates of hell.

MCCAIN: Ma%u2019am let me say that I don%u2019t disagree with anything you said, and thank you %u2026

Here%u2019s what McCain said when asked about the draft in June:

%u201CI don%u2019t know what would make a draft happen unless we were in an all-out World War III.%u201D %u2026

It%u2019s certainly possible McCain had a senior moment and didn%u2019t realize he was essentially agreeing with the woman about needing to bring back the draft. But what if he does genuinely agree with her? Shouldn%u2019t we have the know the answer to that question?

Is Obama the latest cult leader?

Well he also is fond of:


Pathological Lying

Psychopaths lie coolly and easily, even when it is obvious they are being untruthful. It is almost impossible for them to be consistently truthful about either a major or minor issue. They lie for no apparent reason, even when it would be easier and safer to tell the truth. This is sometimes called "crazy lying". Confronting their lies may provoke an unpredictably intense rage or simply a Buddha-like smile.

Another form of lying common among cult leaders is known as _pseudologica fantastica_, an extension of pathological lying. Leaders tend to create a complex belief system, often about their own powers and abilities, in which they themselves sometimes get caught up. "It is often difficult to determine whether the lies are an actual delusional distortion of reality or are expressed with the conscious or unconscous intent to deceive."

These manipulators are rarely original thinkers. Plagerists and thieves, they seldom credit the true originators of ideas, often co-opting authorship. They are extremely convincing, forceful in the expression of their views, and talented at passing lie detector tests. For them, objective truth does not exist. The only "truth" is whatever will best achieve the outcome that meets their needs.

Obama is not adverse to lying. He will do or say anything to get elected.

"McCain''''''''s Office Mails Threat, Whits Powder", or "McCain''''''''s Office Mailed Threat, White Powder."

This would show possession. Believe it or not, it would be considered proper English. ----------------------------------------

Well I have come to realize from the past that you are a paranoid GOP, but the heatline says, "McCain Office Mailed Threat, White Powder"

This headline doesn''t imply that McCain''s office sent the mailing.

I bet it was one of Obamas terrorist freinds who sent the white powder. Which one, I dont know.

Posted by gop_forever at 08:48 AM : Aug 22, 2008

It could be Bill Ayers or Rev. Wright.

CBS screws up yet another headline. They are on a roll!

So McCain''''s office mailed a threat and white powder! That''''s terrible! Why did they do that. Who did they mail it to?

Obviously another GOP paranoid.

If the headline would have appeared as you try to suggest it should/would have sadi, "McCain''s Office Mails Threat, Whits Powder", or "McCain''s Office Mailed Threat, White Powder."

This would show possession. Believe it or not, it would be considered proper English.

Wow the MSM and Obama are getting desperate. Now they Headline this Article to make it appear Mccain sent the letters. I hope CBS gets ridiculed for this. Talk about being in the Tank for one candidate.

terrorislamvx --

The Cheney/Bush/Neocon thugs that have been running this country for the last 8 years have run up a trillion dollar tab on Communist China''s credit card for their War for Corporate Welfare in Iraq -- that doesn''t bother you?

jackdems --

McInsane refuses to make his military records available to the public, much like his medical records, of which only a fraction have been released and only then, for a few hours(!) -- why?

What''s Fake War "Hero" Johnny hiding?

Maybe since Obama does not have the long Senate experience like McSame, he can lead this country and not be a puppet for BIG corporations and foreign interests.
----------------------------------------------------
Obama is the Puppet for George Soros and the Moveon.org. Obama will also be a puppet for Hamas sympathizers. We already know Hamas is revered at the Rev Wright Church and Hamas has been caught several times donating to Obama. Who the puppet now. Dance for me Lib.

Why is Obama and the University Preventing the Public from seeing the Records of 5 years worth of Ayers and Obama work, unless there is something we shouldnt see before he is elected President. This Reminds me of Michelle Obama Essay on Black Militants, the University will not release until after the election. Interesting!

On Tuesday, the University of Illinois refused to release records relating to Barack Obama''s service on the Chicago Annenberg Exchange. The university said the donor of the records that document the charity''s work has not yet turned over ownership rights to the material.

The university is "aggressively pursuing" an agreement with the donor, and as soon as one is finalized, the collection will be made accessible to the public, the university said in a statement.

So the headline reads "mccain office MAILED threat, yadda, yadda,yadda". Now, just reading that some would think that the mccain office sent the threatening mail, not the case at all. If you didn''t know about these incidents you wouldn''t realize that the mail had been sent to the mccain offices in two cities. One being Denver.
I guess your msm would go to any lengths to smear the GOP. So typical. I think they used to call it yellow jounalism back long ago. Now, you people don''t have any journalism.

s Obama the latest cult leader.

We need to look at the profile of a cult leader.

1) Glibness/Superficial Charm

Glibness is a hallmark of psychopaths. They are able to use language effortlessly to beguile, confuse, and convince. They are captivating storytellers. They exude self-confidence and are able to spin a web that intrigues others and pulls them into the psychopath''''''''s life. Most of all, they are persuasive. Frequently they have the capacity to destroy their critics verbally or disarm them emotionally.

Obama is certainly persuasive.

You sound REALLY desperate! Do you HONESTLY think anyone believes this garbage?? Well anyone outside the Religious Reich that is??
