In today''s culture, is it even worth trying to remind people that the Black Power "fist bump" salute was, for those who brandished it most seriously, a symbol of violence -- rhetorical, political and literal -- against the United States? It was the high sign for a racist militia, the Black Panthers, which orchestrated the murder of innocents and allied itself with America''s enemies. In today''s lingo, you might even say Black Power was "divisive

The fact will always remain, Obama is not experianced and no amount of popularity or charisma will change that.

Isn''t it about time America faced the reality that the ''tried and true'' has far better odds (to make any positive changes in the future) than the ''uncertain and new?''

I had no idea McCain had a base, Who are these people?? or this PERSON.

What!! those 2 guys he hang out with at the SAUSAGE HOUSE, And considering where it was, I dont think they were there for him.

The fine people of America is just too smart to vote for this guy and have us regress and continue to have us stuck on OLD.

America needs to get with the rest of the world and continue to lead and be ahead , Not have us fall behind.

As an ordinary citizen I am appalled by how arrogant Obama has become. He has an oversize ego. No worries. This November, Americans are going to unite and make him eat humble pie.

If McCain does become President U.S. relations with Asians will be at an all time low!

`John McCain`s racist remark very troubling`

On his campaign bus recently, Sen. John McCain told reporters, "I hated the *****. I will hate them as long as I live."

JOHN McCAIN IS A LIAR, AND A HYPOCRITE!!!

I was all for Sen. John McCain at first, but then I realize I was for the John McCain from the year 2000, this new John McCain for the year 2008 is actually a morphed John McBush! This is not the real John McCain we all knew and liked and those who are on his band wagon are thinking McCain 2000, not McCain 2008! McCain 2008 is Bush!

THE FACT IS THAT IN ALL THE TWO DECADES THAT JOHN McCAIN WAS IN WASHINGTON, HE HAS DONE "NOTHING AT ALL" TO TRY TO GET AMERICA OFF FOREIGN OIL!

THE FACT IS THAT JOHN McCAIN FOR THE PAST TWO DECADES HAS ACTUALLY VOTED "AGAINST" DEVELOPING ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SUCH AS WIND POWER, SOLAR POWER, AND BIOFUELS. JOHN McCAIN VOTED "AGAINST" ALL OF IT!

ADD ANOTHER SLAP IN THE FACE, RECENTLY JOHN MCCAIN EVEN VOTED "TO ALLOW" FOR ANY OIL THAT IS DRILLED HERE IN AMERICA TO BE SOLD TO FOREIGN COUNRIES LIKE INDIA , CHINA, AND JAPAN.

JOHN McCAIN IS A LIAR, AND A HYPOCRITE!!!

JOHN McCAIN WILL CONTINUE THE SAME DISASTEROUS THINGS WHICH GEORGE BUSH HAS DONE FOR THE PAST 8 YEARS!!!

OBAMA ON THE OTHER HAND WILL BRING POSITIVE PROGRESS WHICH WILL BENEFIT EVERYONE!!!

OBAMA BELIEVES THAT IN ORDER TO GET OFF FOREIGN OIL, WE NEED TO DEVELOP ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SUCH AS SOLAR, WIND, ELECTRIC, AND BIOFUEL, AS WELL AS CLEAN COAL, (AND OBAMA HAS SAID THAT IF NUCLEAR POWER CAN BE PROVEN TO BE SAFE, CAN BE PROTECTED FROM ATTACK, AND IF THE WASTE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY CAN BE STORED SAFELY, HE WILL ALSO CONSIDER NUCLEAR POWER, BUT SAFETY FIRST!!!)

BY THE WAY OBAMA IS "NOT" AGAINST DRILLING! OBAMA JUST WANTS THE OIL COMPANIES TO DRILL THE LAND "THEY ALREADY HAVE". (THE OIL COMPANIES CURRENLY HAVE LEASED FROM THE GOVERNMENT "33 MILLION ACRES OF OFF-SHORE LAND FOR DRILLING", BUT THE OIL COMPANIES "ARE NOT" DRILLING THAT LAND RIGHT NOW. OBAMA , AND THE REST OF THE DEMOCRATS ARE SAYING TO THE OIL COMPANIES "DRILL THAT "33 MILLION ACRES OF OFF-SHORE LAND THAT THEY ALREADY HAVE, OR THEY SHOULD GIVE UP YOUR LEASE, AND GIVE THAT "33 MILLION ACRES OFF-SHORE LAND" BACK TO THE GOVERNMENT, SO THE GOVERNMENT CAN START DRILLING IT!!!

JOHN McCAIN KNOWS ALL THIS, JOHN McCAIN IS MANIPULATING THE PUBLIC!

TO MAKE IT WORST, RECENTLY, JOHN McCAIN EVEN VOTED "TO ALLOW" FOR ANY OIL THAT IS DRILLED HERE IN AMERICA TO BE SOLD TO FOREIGN COUNRIES LIKE INDIA , CHINA, AND JAPAN.

JOHN McCAIN IS A LIAR, AND A HYPOCRITE!!!

JOHN McCAIN FOR TWO DECADES VOTED "AGAINST" DEVELOPING ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SUCH AS WIND POWER, SOLAR POWER, RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY, AND BIOFUELS.

JOHN McCAIN VOTED "AGAINST" ALL OF IT!

LET''S JUST GO BACK TO YEAR 2002:
--- In 2002, John McCain voted "AGAINST" legislation called : SECURING AMERICA''S FUTURE ENERGY (SAFE) Act: (This legislation wanted to enhance energy conservation, research and development and to provide for security and diversity in the energy supply for the American people) JOHN McCAIN VOTED "AGAINST" IT!

--- In 2003, John McCain voted "AGAINST" legislation which proposed Research and Development, which would provide for security and diversity in the energy supply for the American people.

--- In 2005, John McCain voted "AGAINST" legislation called: ENERGY POLICY ACT OF 2005: (This legislation wanted to ensure jobs for America''s future with affordable, and reliable energy. The legislation proposed to develop a COMPREHENSIVE ENERGY POLICY that addressed domestic production, energy efficiency, alternative resources, and other issues affecting the energy industry and consumers)

--- In 2006, AND AGAIN in 2007: McCain voted "AGAINST" spending money on Research and Development of Renewable Energy, Including: Wind Power, Solar, geothermal, biomass, hydropower, and biofuels.

Alec Pointevent, a major McCain surrogate in Georgia, is more confident. Georgians "have some walking-around sense" and they won''t stray from their conservative roots, he said.
*** If Georgians won''t stray from their conservative roots, then they definately won''t be voting for Amnesty Mccain!

"American will think long and hard before they put a black muslim in the White House."

This is a bold faced lie, but if it were true, Obama will still make a better president than any old washed up neo.con & puppet of BIG oil. The far right has had its day and it wasn''t pretty. Buh-bye!!

"I am terrified of politicians who want to take away our guns. Obama does not. Clinton did." Think about it.

Well, Clinton is running. Besides, with the latest Supreme Court decision I think your gun is pretty safe.

Hadenough,

Actually, someone has found a more irrelevant straw to grasp. His name is John McCain and the straw is Obama''s cancelled visit to wonded vets..something he''s done on several previous occasions.

Does anyone else find it interesting that Obama can''''''''t quit smoking? I mean here is a dude that wants to lecture us, learn Spanish, learn French, don''''''''t drive SUV''''''''s and he can''''''''t quit smoking???
I wonder if he smokes around his daughters??

''Obama Has Cash To Attack McCain''s Base''

When I saw this, at first I thought it meant Obama was attacking McCain''s real ''Base'', the media. But they would never admit to their McCain mancrush.

Think about it, you know everything there is to know about Obama, even things that aren''t true. What do you know about McCain? How often do you hear about the Keating Five scandal, his constant flip flopping, the fact that lobbyists run his entire operation, questionable influence peddling and money laundering through his Reform Institute, his immoral dealings with his first wife, etc.? Rarely, if ever. How often do you hear about the propaganda tapes McCain made for the North Vietnamese (under torture). Never, they wont touch that one with a ten foot pole. Meanwhile every little burp and *** of Obama''s gets the headline treatment.

It''s absurd. For a supposedly liberal media, they''re certainly doing an awful job of it.
