"he word BIGOT means a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance.

"MCCAIN SPEAKS TO ALL TYPES OF PEOPLE AND HAS A HEALTHY BALANCE OF SUPPORTERS, NOT BECAUSE OF HIS COLOR OR GENDER.

Posted by JACK3213 at 11:30 AM : Apr 24, 2008"


Huh so I guess the exit polls from every sate that show that Obama has support from whites and blacks or every economic and social background and age group must just be leftist lies?

"If Obama has ties to Rev. Wright, Louis Farrakhan, Ayers, and quotes in the church mission statement from W.E.B. Dubois, this is proof that his primary loyalty is questionable as to whether it is for Africa, or America, or some black agenda..

Posted by trapbreak at 11:21 AM : Apr 24, 2008"


Why do you keep posting half truths? You can''t find anything legitimate so you post falsehoods and innuendos?

Obama has no ties whatsoever with Farakhan, that''s simply a lie.

Obama had nothing to do with posting W.E.B. DuBois quotes in the church mission statement any more than you have had anything to do with quotes in your churches mission statement.

This is not proof of anything, this is innuendo and lies of the worst kind.

IF YOU IMAGINE FOR A MINUTE OBAMA A WHITE MAN- AND SPEAKING TO A LARGE GROUP OF BLACK PEOPLE- DO YOU ACTUALY THINK OBAMA WOULD BE AS POPULAR? IF HILLARY WAS A WHITE MAN SHE WOULD BE LAUGHED OUT OF POLITICS. MCCAIN SPEAKS TO ALL TYPES OF PEOPLE AND HAS A HEALTHY BALANCE OF SUPPORTERS, NOT BECAUSE OF HIS COLOR OR GENDER. THE DIVISIVE COUNTRY WILL CONTINUE NATURALLY AS LONG AS THERE IS AN UNQUALIFED BLACK MAN OR A NON CREDIBLE WHITE WOMAN ON THE TICKET. CREDIBILITY, QUALIFICATIONS, & EXPERIANCE REALLY DO MATTER.

"Having a full page endorsement by The New Black Panther Party on his web site didn''''t help Obama%u2019s image, and when the press jumped on it it was quickly removed.

Posted by trapbreak at 11:21 AM : Apr 24, 2008"


The New Black Panthers linked their website to the Obama website and joined as a "friend" just like you or anyone else can. Again, this argument that because radicals endorse him or link their sites to his that somehow he advocates their ideology is absurd. This is no more relevant that the Rev. Haggee endorsement of McCain.

That would have to be one he11 of a redo considering Hillary only got 29% of the vote, Edwards got 30% and Obama got 39%.

Our cultural battles get fought out in our elections. The big divide in america is still this sense of "red state" people, which are losers clinging to racism or the past because they have nothing inside themselves worthy of belief, and the "blue state" people who are dealing with globalization and eager to move forward as the world changes. The "red state" loser crowd ...Now we see this demographic - the too old, the failures, the pointless - voitng for Klan leader Klillary. It may be true as many of these faliures of history have posted here that they are still too numerous for a black man to be considered fairly in this election, but that doesn''''t mean we don''''t have a duty to continue to fight the culture war, because we cannot give our country up to the Klan which will continue to destroy our economy.
If you want your state or county to look like rural Ohio or Pennsylvania, like some ugly ghost town full of mutated hicks who hate progress, then indeed vote for Hillary. Posted by SharnCedar

Do you have information that confirms Hillary Clinton was/is involved with the KKK? Just for edification - the word BIGOT means a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance. Your statement above fits that definition to the letter.

Clintons: Arab Connections Why Arent People Talking About It ?

I believe that they are opportunists who will do ANYTHING for a BUCK, to enhance their image or to get elected. And it is this DO ANYTHING FOR POWER that SCARES ME more than ANYTHING

It is people like that who get this country in trouble as they change their perspective to maintain their position--dead center, where ever that may be.


Take a look at the fact that Both Bill and Hillary make TONS OF BUCKS from their extensive involvement with Dubai. Why is that bad?

Dubai is the "business-side" of Terrorism. Bill and Hilary are Major Friends of Dubai, to the point where the Clinton Foundation have established Dubai Study departments in universities in the US and London.

Clinton isn''''t alone in legitimizing Dubai. Other FOBs including disgraced former National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, ex-Secretary of State Madeline Albright and Al and Tipper Gore - have attended highly publicized events there. Republican ex-Sen. Bob Dole and Democratic ex-Rep.

No one is as involved as to the extent of the Clintons. According to San Francisco Examiner columnist P.J. Corkery, Clinton makes $10 million a year from Yucaipa a Dubai firm. Ron Berkle, the owner of Yucaipa companies and a major fund-raiser for Bill and Hillary.

BLACK AMERICANS HAVE DIED ON EVERY BATTLE FIELD AMERICA HAS BEEN ON, AND OUR PATRIOTISM IS QUESTIONED.

IF THATS NOT RACISM, THEN WHAT IS? THE SO CALLED WEATHER MEN WAS PARDONED BY BILL CLINTON - A PARDON IS AMERICA''''S FORGIVENESS. WE FORGAVE THOSE WHITE PEOPLE WHO ATTEMPTED TO BLOW UP AMERICA BASES, YET WE QUESTION OBAMA PATRIOTISM BECAUSE HE ATTENDED A CHURCH? IF THIS IS NOT RACISM, THEN WHAT IS? WE WATCHED BILL CLINTON BASICALLY MOLEST AND RAPE WOMEN FOR OVER 40 YEARS, YET WHITE WOMEN DISTRUST OBAMA A MARRIED MAN WITH TWO DAUGHTERS HE WOULD DIE FOR? IS THATS NOT RACISM, THEN WHAT IS?

The more I read your comments, the more I believe that you do not understand that you are hurting Obamas chances by continually playing the Race Card. Why? Do you feel better after posting?

The task for the RATIONAL MAJORITY in our Nation is SIMPLY to recognize the SOURCE that sustains and provides the base of support for the LEFT-WING FRINGE ELEMENTS in our society; and, to undertake a decisive role at the ballot box to isolate and relegate these FRINGE ELEMENTS THAT COMPRISE A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE BASE OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY to a decibel level that is barely audible. ANY TIME you vote for a Democrat, ANY DEMOCRAT, you''re unmistakably multiplying the capacity of these LEFT-WING FRINGE ELEMENTS to continue to promote their radical agenda, and to bring our Nation to its knees. A circumstance that no external power ever could have accomplished.

The ability to restore our Nation''s status; and, to sustain this Sacred Land that the RATIONAL MAJORITY so proudly calls AMERICA, resides in your hands at the ballot box.

The Heffa was slated to Win (PA) and shes using this Expected Win, to somehow Treat it as a Upset...Bad on Her part, Bad on the Medias part & Bad on Hillary Clintons Support, that know she was a 20 point Favorite in (PA)...

When she loses BIG in (NC) which Obama is slated to win, the Media will say Obama has made a Comeback..Bull Spit !!

Obama will have only done what the Media knows hes going to do 2 Months ago. just like Hillary Clinton Winning (PA)

OBAMA 1,715 +

CLINTON 1,585 -

EDWARDS 18

Republicans | 1,191 Needed to Clinch

MCCAIN 1,241
HUCKABEE 231
ROMNEY 149

PREDICTION: Democrat National Convention will be shut down by riots between loyal Obama supporters and fanatical Hillary supporters. Violence and fires in the building will reduce the podium to ashes. The Democrat Party will be unable to choose a candidate. McCain will run against a handful of independents and win.

The Democrat Party will disband in disgrace. In the NEXT election, Obama will construct his own party and run a REAL campaign.

And we will FINALLY move on from the disgraceful Clinton/Bush era, and maybe, just maybe, we will rise from the ashes and become the Great Nation we once were, and that we should be.

ERoosevelt08 whined:

Iowans would like a re-do on the caucus so more of us could vote for Hillary Clinton! We certainly didn''''t know the truth about Obama that we know now.

------------------

Iowans certainly didn''t know the LIES that would spill from Hillary''s mouth like water. If there was a re-do now, OBAMA WOULD WIN EVEN MORE.

Obama''s Gloves Are Off - And May Stay Off

Clinton''s gloves were never on!! lol

*** Obama supporters at the caucuses never had the gloves on either when they bullied Edwards Supporters! I hate how those Obmama caucusers behavied, especially the ones in Iowa that had other state licence plates on their cars.... hmmm, I wonder if that was a fair election. Primaries should all be private voting. You shouldn''''t have to have other people know who you are voting for! Edwards and Clinton both would have done lots better with just voting instead of caucuses! Obamam voters, what is one bill he voted for or against in the senate??? Anytime????

You don''t have to be a weatherman to know which candidate blows! lol

The big divide in america is still this sense of "red state" people, which are losers clinging to racism or the past because they have nothing inside themselves worthy of belief, and the "blue state" people who are dealing with globalization and eager to move forward as the world changes. The "red state" loser crowd is still slightly larger numerically than the modern human beings, but if you look at the youth, say generation Y, they are a vast majority of solid "blue state" or modern types. These kids don''t even have a shred of traditional racism or racial thinking, they are used to having friends and scholl mates of all colors and backgrounds and don''t think twice about it.

So the red state thinking is dead, it is a matter of how much more damage it will do as it thrashes around, dying in agony. Now we see this demographic - the too old, the failures, the pointless - voitng for Klan leader Klillary. It may be true as many of these faliures of history have posted here that they are still too numerous for a black man to be considered fairly in this election, but that doesn''t mean we don''t have a duty to continue to fight the culture war, because we cannot give our country up to the Klan which will continue to destroy our economy.

the funniest thing is that Obama only lost by 100 thousand of the popluar vote. I am ready for change and I feel Obama is the one to do it, but if we are stuck with Billary then at least we will not have another 4 years of corporate payout.

Well I suppose it''s not surprising that a single digit win has been spun by most media outlets as either a ''turning of the tide'' or as a ''failure'' by Barak to ''get the job done''. You would think that the media had some some stake in encouraging this female Don Quixote to keep tilting at windmills! This despite the glaring obviousness to folks possesing reason that she is only damaging her party chances in november. Is there really so little going on in this volatile world that the media feels the need to keep this now pointless battle going?
