- Be very scared of this Man.
He pals around with people who wanted to overthrow the government. One of them is His closest follower.
He also pals around with persons whose business dealings are shady. He despises capitalism and instead promotes a very socialistic vision during speeches.
He believes health care is a right not a privilege and allows people to be cured for the least expense.
He talks about hope and did not incite fear, nor promoted it, with those He talked to.
He did not speak or rile the crowds to anger and hate but pushed for change.
In the last minutes of His Life forgave a thief and died besides scoundrels.
Oh, and He lived 2000 years ago...maybe that''s why... - Reply to this comment
- "Liberals have had to put up with George Bush''''s immorality, and incompetence for 8 years. Many of us talked of leaving the country after 2004. Now we are hearing that many Repubs are considering leaving the country rather than have Obama as their president. "-- Posted by endrepubs
Oh this would make a wonderful situation comedy.
Republicans leave en-mass and have to find a country to live in... let''s see. Are there actually any industrialized countries conservative enough for neocons?
Only Russia and the countries of the Fertile Crescent hold that kind of conservatism.
The rest of the world are liberals. Their version of "Rightism" is just a tad left of Barack Obama. - Reply to this comment
- Troopergate is nothing..How about OBAMAGATE.
I dont care who won the debate. I was one month ago going to vote for Obama. And then saw an Ad on Obama and Ayers. So I decided to investigate and what I found appalled me. I cannot beleive people are thinking of Voting for Obama when there is a dangerous pattern.
1.Obama and Bill Ayers Annenberg Challenge Coverup
2.Obama and Alwadi, a palestine terrorist
3.Obama and Rev Wright
4.OBama and the socialist demcratic association
5.Obama and Acorn
6.Obmaa and Rev Flaggert
7.Hamas donated 30k to Obama
8.International Solidarity Movement
9.Wheels of Justice
10.Rezko
11.And now ACORN to the list of Obama radical associations
Take all of Obama associates and his comments he has made and ill sum up Obama.
Obama is the most left wing radical terrorist sympathizer who is pro-muslim and anti-Isreal. Obama is pro-black. Obama is arrogant, lies and throws people under the bus to pursue power. Obama is dangerous for this country. In a post 911 World , I dont understand how the Main Stream Media is not reporting or investigating Obama background. CAN anyone name a person in the past besides Michelle, Rev WRight, BIll AYers, Rezko who can VOUCH for Obama. - Reply to this comment
- McCain should not have taken up Obama. Obama is an opposite to what many of us think an American is. We are not ready for a black president. We are not ready for a Muslim raised and influenced person Obama is. He may think he ignored his teaches all his life, but he is wrong and he will realize that before he is much older. Twenty years with a preacher ranting and raving like the Rev Wright had to influence Obama and especially his little girls. McCain should speak to issues and let the Obama myth speak on its own. Looks like McCain is covering all bases if he loses because he will have to work with Obama as a Senator if he is not elected and Obama is. Sticking up for Obama makes this man seem weak. We do not need a weak president.

That politifact woman is so strange - she reminds me of Laura Schlessinger, the radio host who was always so black and white about marital infidelity who was cheating the whole time. - Reply to this comment
- A Tale Of Two Fact Checks
Basically, McCain lies while Obama tells the truth:
- Politifact: McCain''s claim that "(Bill) Ayers and Obama ran a radical education foundation together" is "pants-on-fire" false.
- CNN: Obama''s claim that "McCain would shift the burden from lenders to taxpayers, guaranteeing a loss of taxpayer money" is true. - Reply to this comment
- ---"Clearly wounded by the remarks of Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., condemning the tone at his rallies, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., issued this statement a few minutes ago."---
I just read this over at abc - McCain''s like a bear with a thorn in its paw right now . . . I guess Dems see him as ''erratic'', but I think he''s got an internal compass of what he feels to be ''right'' or ''wrong'' on a case by case basis combined with a hot temper.
I guess maybe we all might want to brace for a bumpy ride these next couple of weeks (?) :o - Reply to this comment

That''s really insightful - you hear a lot of people saying oh McCain''s conflicted, he''s being made to be somebody other than the McCain everybody knew in 2000.
But people don''t change, not really. I think he''s contrarian, a rebel. He''s wary of those holding power over him, and he''s hair-trigger sensitive to being criticized, judged inadequate, being told to be something other than he is, feeling controlled by outside forces, etc. - Reply to this comment
- pt 2
His lifelong goal is to feel like he measures up to his accomplished dad and grandpa. He''s always been a GOP who creates high profile bills that embarrass the establishment. Somebody at a rally asks him if he might die while in office, he calls him a ''little jerk''. Tom Brokaw tries to get him to stick to debate rules, he tells him he''s never going to be his Treasury Secretary. His competitor Barack''s taken the lead in the polls largely because of outside forces, he''s now known as ''that one''. The guy at the rally who calls him sir and presumes McCain''s exercising control over his strategy by begging McCain rather than telling McCain what to do gets a handshake. The veteran who directed McCain to ''toughen up'' probably infuriated him and made the contrarian want to teach everybody about respect.
I don''t think he sees when it is that he''s being disrespectful because when he is he''s feeling oppressed, so the ''that one'' treatment probably feels justified. Sticking up for Barack when McCain himself is the one being attacked for not attacking Barack just maybe to him feels justified too . . .
He tends to act a lot from his gut I think (?) - Reply to this comment

- Many times in the many years I have been a citizen of this country have I felt the abuse right wing conservatives practice regularly on the rest of us. They cheated us in past Florida elections. In one election poll workers were refusing turning on the voting machines claiming the machines were not working. When I told the poll workers I would sue them personally for interfering with my right to vote, the machines miraculously were immediately working. Republicans blocked access to voting and ultimately the counting of Florida votes. I am fed up with these republican machinations. They call themselves patriots and Christians. But they are the true enemies of our nation and of freedom of religion.
Their cheating gave us Bush and with him, a war with an exclusive oil contract for Halliburton, and a policy of allowing investment firms to steal from the poor to give to the rich. Giveaways for the wealthy and derregulation caused the financial crisis we have now. Republican machinations have caused reductions in our freedoms and increased government power in our lives.
This negative, anti-American attitude Palin has injected in her campaign is nothing but a reflection of the heart of the republican party. Let''s simply vote them out of the White House. This way, we will stand a chance at rebuilding our country. - Reply to this comment
- I have a gas station where I''m selling gas at $.50 a gallon to all you people that actually believe McCain was defending Obama. If any of you do not see that all this kind, patriotic stand-up and defend "That One" is true, I must come to the conclusion that we Americans have finally lost it. I wonder just how much the McCain staff paid the AA to stand up and declare, "bring it to him"? It doesn''t take much for a people to "Sell You Out." And The Little Old Lady, it is insulting to realize the McCain Party is "using" senior citizens to scare citizens. America, all this week a "Pretty, little, Soceer Mom that is crazy about "Joe 6-Pak" and Caucasian, is shouting how dangerous this "Black Man" is. Come on Americans! John McCain won''t even look at Obama when he''s debating him, how in the world, can he says he defending "That Same One" now? And on top of that the McCain/Palin Team is putting not only "That One" at risk, but his wife and children. When the media put out that Palin''s 17 year old daughter was pregnant and unmarried, Obama told the Media the families of the Parties should not be attacked. And the now Professor that was labeled a "Terrorist" by the FBI, someone, an American Institution gave this "terrorist" a chance to become someone positive. Isn''t that America; to love all regardless of what they used to be, but what we are now? Isn''t that what the Bible states, that God looks at the inside and loves us All unconditionally?

- WHO IS THE REAL OBAMA?

%u201CEven as his political career advanced, Obama%u2019s teaching stuck to the law-school norm of dispassionately evaluating competing arguments with the tools of forensic logic. But Obama apparently was not attached to legal argumentation for its own sake. %u201CIt was drilled into us from Day 1 that you examined your biases and inclinations,%u201D Richard Hess, now an attorney at Susman Godfrey in Houston, told me. %u201CAnd then, when you made decisions, they were based on sound empirical reasons.%u201D Escuder saw his professor as %u201Ca street smart academic%u201D: %u201CHe wanted his students to consider the impact laws and judicial opinions had on real people.%u201D According to Marcus Fruchter, who took constitutional law with Obama and now practices at the law firm of Schopf & Weiss in Chicago, %u201CYou never would have known he was going to be a liberal senator based on what he said in his courses.%u201D - Reply to this comment
- Does anybody remember a time when elections were special and rather your person won or the other guy''''''''s we still stuck together as a nation, a nation bonded together through sacrifice, love, hate, pain, suffering and tolerance? Does anyone?

- WHO IS THE REAL MCCAIN?
http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/23316912/makebelieve_maverick/print
"At least three of McCain''s GOP colleagues have gone on record to say that they consider him temperamentally unsuited to be commander in chief. Smith, the former senator from New Hampshire, has said that McCain''s "temper would place this country at risk in international affairs, and the world perhaps in danger. In my mind, it should disqualify him." Sen. Domenici of New Mexico has said he doesn''t "want this guy anywhere near a trigger." And Sen. Thad Cochran of Mississippi weighed in that "the thought of his being president sends a cold chill down my spine. He is erratic. He is hotheaded." - Reply to this comment
- Well, your screen name being Latin for "mercenary" suggests the same of you.
Not that I care, just pointing it out.

I sure do remember those days, they were great. Then along came Nixon, and our nation hasn''t trusted their leaders since. If just one person came around now that can rally us as a nation again, we could reuturn to those days. Unfortunately, these two candidates fall far short of what we need. - Reply to this comment

- I think people are enraged that a man name Barak Obama has been plucked from obscurity, groomed by his party, and catapulted by his party and the media to a position to run for the highest office in the land. And, the Bush presidency has been so bad and unpopular, that people are worried that Dems and others against the current administration will panic and vote for anyone, no matter who it is. And "who it is" is scary but people are denying the facts and simply won''''t believe the truth because they can''''t admit it to themselves, that they have no choice. I think that is the frustration. People are scared and they well should be.
