Clinton Fundraiser Endorses McCain in ‘Personal’ Decision

Lynn who…?
Obama is raising more money. He doesnt need her money. When asked by CNN why he`s not supporting Obama she said:
`I dont like him…..He`s elitist`.
And guess what shes married to SIR Forrester De Rothchild and they are worth billions of dollars. The true definition of elistist.

“I didn’t leave the Democratic party, the Democratic party left me.”
That pretty much sums it up.

Rothschild said of Obama to CNN in July, “frankly I don’t like him. I feel like he is an elitist.
Codeword for “He is black, and I can’t tolerate a black man being president.
Enough said.

This woman pushed her headquarters up her hindquarters. Nattering cheese-cake eating moron.

An elitist calling someone else an “elitist” is the height of hypocrisy…it’s like being for deregulation your life and then, suddenly in the midst of economic catastrophe…oh, wait, she endorsed McCain, right? Got it.

The same poll that had McCain +10 last week has Obama +5 this week hahahahaha!
/me waits for the Republican troll excuses…

Wow, this seems to have struck a nerve. I can always tell- it’s when a whole bunch of Obama followers hurry up and make sure they get in their whole “this doesn’t matter…” or “who is this person…” “oh no- she’s the elite one!” and my all-time favorite “she’s racist.”

WOW. What? Can the woman not speak her mind? I thought that the Democratic Party was in support of people expressing themselves, putting to use that right granted by the First Amendment? I guess that it can be utilized so long as it is in support of democratic causes. You really need to grow up and realize that not everyone who does not support Obama is a racist. I am African-American and I don’t like him. Like this donor, I too think that he is a bit of an elitist, and I am an educated man. We all have the right to make a decision as we see fit and based on who we think would be best suited for running the country. I don’t think that Obama is that man. When he can be honest with the American people about the real problem in Washington, the people like his running mate who are fixtures there, and can put forth a REAL plan for governing, as opposed to just criticizing the republicans, then MAYBE some of these Democrats who refuse to vote for him would consider it. The problem with the Democrats, in a nutshell, is that they believe that they know what’s best for people. How about letting the people make some decisions for themselves??

It would be nice if the ENTIRE statement was in this article.
Here it is:
“In an election as important as this, we must choose the candidate who has a proven record of bipartisanship and reforming government, and that’s John McCain,” Rothschild said. “We can’t afford a president who lacks experience and judgment and has never crossed party lines to work for meaningful reform. Amid tough economic times and foreign policy concerns, we need someone who is ready to lead. Although I am a Democrat, I recognize that it’s more important to put country ahead of party and that’s why I support John McCain.”

If this was the other way, it would be deemed divine intervention. Who care? A lot of people voting for McCain/Palin care.

Why won’t she cooperate?? MAYBE it is because, just as the Democrats claimed when the Republicans were trying to impeach Bill Clinton, that she sees this as a big witch hunt? I would not cooperate either. Once a level of fairness comes into play, then she should cooperate. As long as the panel is being chaired by an avowed Obama supporter, I would not cooperate either.

Just great – another idiotic Clinton supporter joins the ranks. I can’t stand Clinton and don’t agree with her on anything. I think Ron Paul has got the right idea. When all of these crazies start supporting our candidate, something has got to be wrong with our candidate.

If I were still a Democrat (after the primaries I was not) I’d be embarrassed by the nastiness of my party. I would not have thought such liberal people would be so mean, snide and downright abusive to anyone who doesn’t go along with their agenda.
I’m one of the many new (formerly democratic) independents.

Never heard of the “Lady”, and don’t expect to ever hear from her again.:-)
“de Rothschild” doesn’t like Obama because he seems like an elitist! LOL
Sounds like she could use a little MORE education, though.
1. It is NOT the Democrats who keep using the “choice issue” as a noose around women’s necks”. That would be the pro-lifer’s.
2. She’s not worried about Roe V. Wade being overturned, since it has withstood 8 years of the Bush administration? Well, that is phenomenally stupid. Roe v. Wade has not been overturned because the conservatives do not YET have a bullet-proof majority in the Supreme Court. If McCain/Palin win they will cetainly have the opportunity to stack the court with conservatives for years to come.
An incredibly stupid argument.

I hope more and more high profile Dems get on board the Maverick/Reformer ticket….instead of staying in the closet. I’m sure Hill and Bill are going to be voting the McCain/Palin ticket too, so she can run again in 2012.

“WHY ARE THE REPUBS SO IN LOVE WITH THE WEALTHY—I MEAN SUPER WEALTHY”
Do you want to rethink that, Babs?

Yesterday, lots of bad economic news, lots of people still hurting from Ike and where does Obama wind up last night? Hollywood fund raiser – with all the other crazies. Did he have his teleprompter with him? Rothschild has it right – THE DEMOCRAT PARTY HAS LEFT HER – AND MILLIONS OF OTHERS. I live in OH and many of the guys I work with are long time Dems, BUT NOT IN THIS ELECTION!!

rodney — you’re an idiot !!!

She’s exactly right. She is just one of millions who feel screwed over by the DNC. And the more you bash her, the more like her we’ll see.

After the way Hillary threw in the towel at the convention, I can understand why her supporters might switch to McCain.
Hillary disgraced herself AND her contributors (like me) by giving up without a fight.
I never thought Hillary Clinton would melt into such a wimp.

Did lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild of London, wife of Sir Evelyn de Rothschild just call Obama an elitist?
These words are razors to my wounded heart!

I care about this woman – and all the other Democrats like me who are voting McCain for similar reasons

Niko is right. I knew he was arrogant when I saw him with his nose high up in the air while trying to debate with Hillary. The San Francisco comment just drove it home.

Why would I care who this person wants to vote for ?
Why would America REWARD complete Republican failure ?

Elitist – come on one only needs to look at her name to know that she is what she claims Obama to be. The Rothschild name can be traced back hundreds of years and their money as long.
But oh really cares what this elitist person thinks – she is so out of touch with everyday reality (like McCain) that she thinks the DNC left her -

Putting Sen. John McCain in charge of “reforming” the financial system is like appointing “Billy the Kid” Sheriff of Dodge.
1. The signature moment in Sen. John McCain’s political career remains his support of Keating – when McCain used his political influence to try to help his crony (and significant donor to his political campaigns) of the hook in the S & L scandal.
2. McCain has repeatedly admitted he “does not understand the economy”.
3. Various factors have come together to create the current meltdown, but certainly one of the central factors has been the lessening of capital requirements in the financial markets, and the loosening of government regulation and federal oversight. Who is responsible for this? Sen. John McCain, the “free market” automatons in the Republican party, and – as much as any one else – former Senator, now bank lobbyist Phil Gramm.
Note: Phil Gramm is currently Sen. John McCain’s key economic advisor. He wrote and pushed THE bill through Congress that deregulated the financial markets.
4. McCain (along with many of his Republican colleagues) has always fought for LESS regulation of the financial markets. He has always and consistently argued over his LONG career that the problem is too much regulation.
5. Food for thought: Pres. Bush, former Sen. Phil Gramm, and Sen. John McCain have been the most vocal proponents of privatizing Social Security (i.e. investing social security funds in the stock market). Today would truly be a black Tuesday, if they had been allowed to act on this agenda.
Sen. John McCain would still like to Social Security!
6. McCain doesn’t even know how many houses he owns. The excuse he’s given is that these houses are “investments”, and “who keeps track of the specifics of their investments”. Clearly, John McCain does not. This is hardly the kind of reponsible and informed leadership this country needs. He kind even keep his own (seven) “house(s) in order.” The idea that he could keep our nation’s financial house in order is LUDICROUS.
7. Gov. Palin continues to spout her deranged, contradictory, ill-informed opinions on the campaign trail. The other day she first said: We must solve this crisis by “regulating” the financial markets” and in the very same breathe she said “the solution to this crisis is to make the government stop “meddling in the free markets”. She is truly an idiot.
========================================
As to all you idiot bloggers on this post who get all of your information from shock jocks like Sean Hannity or Rush Limbaugh – why don’t you read a paper or something?
The Bush administration just purchased AIG, putting the U.S. taxpayer on the hook for the debts of a multibillion dollar financial giant.
U.S. taxpayers are being forced to shoulder the debt of a private bank that made some incredibly stupid mistakes?
Whose the Marxist/Socialist/Commie now?
The Republicans have nationalized the U.S. financial system, that makes the Republican party the Communist party as of today.:-)
Republicans are Commies!
Better dead than red…
Vote Obama/Biden 2008!

If its a personal decision why make it public? She can vote as she wishes — so her only reason to announce this is to hypocritically influence other votes. The Republican ticket deserves her and the few who will listen to her.

ashmaya: Nothing to steal; this election is Obama’s to lose and he is doing a fine job of that all by himself. He needs to put out some specific policy proposals–make himself look presidential–and do a better job of relating to working class people. Once he does that, he AMY be able to squeak out a win. I guess tha the Democrats did not learn that lesson when they put John Kerry on the ballot 4 years ago. While I think both are honorable men–John Kerry more so than Barack, both have a hard time getting middle America to see eye-to-eye with them. I did not think John Kerry was an elitist–just too intelligent for his own good. Obama, on the other hand, while just as intelligent, if not more so than Kerry, just comes off as smug and condescending.

Right on.

There goes the duchess vote. That’s going to be rough. If we also lose the empress vote, that might be 3 more. We have to keep those baronesses on board or the ship will sink. I’d say if you’re a millionaire, go ahead and vote McCain. I mean what do you care if the country goes bankrupt because of your tax cuts. Having more than you need or will ever need is what is so much more important.

Yeah Obama, just keep calling everyone a racist.
That’s no way to win my vote.

She is right and millions of Democrats like myself are voting for McCain .Why didn’t the party get a man like Colin Powell. I know he is a Rep.or a John Glenn any Democrat with some exp and who has had a real job,besides this guy.I am embarssed to tell people I am a Democrat.Nancy P and Kennedy think they can run the country using Obama like a puppet.They could never be Pres.so lets get a dummy and prop him up !

I suppose she’s purchased an ambassadorship from the Clintons–and that the offer is still valid if Hillary wins in 2012. Yes, it’s a “personal” decision all right.
Hereditary wealth, hedge fund parasites are the last thing this country needs right now. (This country’s probably the last thing they need now, too, since they’re certainly already sucked our economy completely dry.)

I think that she may need a job soon. She won’t find in on this side of the net. If you look at the record you’ll find that McCain is firmly in the hands, and pockets, of the special interests.

How many vetos did Bush applied? Most of you blogging have no idea how government works. GOP are against socialism until it benefit them. Like ?Fannie and AIG. Sad that most of you are blaming every folks for the country’s economic problem. My brother has been deployed 4 times. First without proper gear, we had to pay for it. So he stood a chance of coming home alive.

She don’t like him because he is black and joined her elitist group by his hard work but she got it by exploitation the society. that is why she don’t like him. Racist!!!

I love how the people her pro McCain are saying, “Oh no, don’t talk trash about this nutjob lady because you disagree with her,” while Republicans have been doing it for the last 8 years.
McCain supporters are the most frothy at the mouth, not to mention (appropriately) the most hypocritical.
McCain is a damn liar.

Sportin’ Life … it wasn’t poor people in Hollywood that gave Obama $9-million last night … you don’t think David Geffen and his buddies don’t want favors … look how Geffen treated Clinton after Clinton backed down from his promises to Geffen!

Lynn is the type of person who thinks for herself, so she was not taken in by the smears of Governor Palin. She is a self-made woman, having already made millions buying and selling broadband licences when she married into the famous Jewish banking family in a London Synogogue. — Howard Richman http://www.jews4palin.blogspot.com

Good riddance! Let her go support McCain. It doesn’t sound like she supports the ideals of FDR anyway. She and the Republicans can celebrate 100,000 dead Iraqis, 4,300 dead American soldiers, 9/11, a destroyed economy and all the other horrors the Republican Party has brought upon America over the last eight years. If I were Hillary, I would give back every penny this woman raised for her. Hillary must be wretching right now.

Well, with Obama’s tax plan that raises taxes a bit for the wealthy, you have to expect that at least one wealthy kook would get ticked off!

Niko_in_Oakland -
The Kennedy’s made their money off bootlegging – so are they a bunch of Elitist – possibly. One only needs to looks at Teddy and his history. JFK and RFK never had a chance to do much of anything – they were taken out by who really knows – not the people who were convicted I asure you. As for my logic, perhaps you need to study where the Rothschild money came from – golly old england
“According to several authors, the family fortune was built upon money embezzled from William IX, who was paid an enormous sum by the British government to provide Hessian soldiers to fight American colonists during the Revolutionary War. William handed over this money to Mayer for investment, but instead it reportedly was used to establish his son Nathan as head of the London branch of the family banking house.
Mayer eventually repaid the money but ‘Nathan manipulated the situation in such a way that this became the origin of the enormous Rothschild fortune,’ (David) Icke wrote.
Biographer Derek Wilson acknowledged this by writing, ‘It was the temporary diversion of the immense sums of money originating in Hesse-Kassel which enabled N. M. [as Nathan liked to be called] to launch his banking operation, providing him with both liquidity and prestige’. ”
So before you go blowing your horn – learn a little more about history.

“John McCain will look for the best solutions to America’s problems.
translation : “John McCain will look after me and the rest of the rich because he is rich too…”

Listen Dems, The GOP needed this boost. Everything else is going wrong for them. So the only thing they can do, is to show how narrow and shallow their are thinking! Let give it to them in Nov. and ignore their comments, because really that is all they have!!!!!!!!!!

Mantui -
It wasn’t because of the GW BUSH that we weren’t attacked – they succeded at their purpose, the collapse of our econmoic system. Surely you can’t believe that a boob who couldn’t take care of the Katrina disaster can keep a terrorist out of our country?????

I don’t know the Rothschilds. I am a retired Catholic elementary teacher.
McCain/Palin 08 – A CLASS ACT WITH…. MEANINGFUL CHANGE!!

I think Obama, Pelosi, and Reed are too far to the left also. It scares me to think what this democratic congress and Obama may do. Also, I do not like how the Obama campaign tried to smear Geraldine Ferraro and now Sarah Palin. Geraldine Ferraro talked about her “supposedly” racist comments on NBC Nightly News with subsitute host Anne Curry and Ferraro sain the Obama campaign dug those comments up from some women’s conference to a reporter of a small newspaper to hurt the Clinton campaign. Ferraro also said the OBAMA campaign tried to get her fired from the job with which the Obama campagin thought she worked. This is creepy, Joe McCarthy, Richard Nixon type stuff. I do not trust any investigations backed by Obama supporters.

a teacher, clinical professor and liberal disaffected democrat, i am voting mccain because the dem party left me too.

Jozy.
PROFOUND! Any in-depth discussion on .. let’s see.. How about Obama’s desire to increase the capital gains tax??

A simple comment about this true ELITIST, FILTY RICH WOMAN -turned Republican. I am very disappointed at this woman for acting like she truly supported Clinton and then turn around and say she is now supporting MCSAne. Did she just discover McSane today or did she know of him while supporting Hillary. What a hypocrite! That :”I really think that they [McCain and Palin] will bring the bold, bipartisan, centrist change we need in Washington,” said Rothschild.
ANd she did not know what Macain stood for while supporting Hillary? Surprise- Mcasin was born the other day when he Palim….”John McCain will look for the best solutions to America’s problems. Like save the financial markets of which he knows very little. He is not an ideologue and he is not beholden to special interests.” – Madam- you are so blind and actually seem ignorant. Go count the number of lobbyists that Macin has in his camp. It is good riddance from the Dem Party. We do not need hypocrites like you.
Bye

jozy: WHo cares where the money comes from? I don’t. My point, to contrast yours, was that if SHE is an elitist, so are the Kennedys, the “darling child” of the Democratic Party. So, to attack her for being an elitist is to attack the Democratic Party for being a hub for elitist, as one of its most prominent families would surely fall into that category following your logic. Just because the money came from England does not make it any more important (or less so) than if it was earned here. Money is still money, regardless of how it is earned or inherited.

Indeed it would be a personal decision. Personal to her keeping her wealth intact.
Some call her a defector.
Defector? Naw, she was a mole.
This woman is an elite that belongs next to McCain on the great Republican “Platform de Rothschilds”.
Its like fine wine to the wealthy is the Republican brand. So elite, you must be in the $100 million plus wealth category and have at least enough homes that you forget where some of them are…..

I can understand why some Democrats supported Hillary Clinton over Barak Obama. I can understand why some female Democrats are disappointed that Sen. Obama and not Sen. Clinton won the Democratic nomination. But I don’t understand how a pro-choice Democrat can support the McCain-Palin ticket. McCain’s policies will continue those of the current administration. Both McCain and Palin oppose abortion rights, and if McCain is elected and appoints a conservative to the Supreme Court, kiss Roe v. Wade goodbye. This woman simply doesn’t get it. And once again, I have to wonder if “elitist” is PC-speak for “uppity.”

To me, her comments on Obama are obviously the mark of a closet racist.

Nice try Niko_in_Oakland -
as i said the Kennedy’s may be elitist – but they are not the hub of the democratic party. Unlike you republicans – the democratic party is for many of the people, not the few (wealthy). We support trying to equal the field – not to distance ourselves from the others.

Alex. I believe that as important as the abortion issue is, Rothschild obviously felt that far more is at stake in this election. IT IS CALLED… A MATTER OF PRIORIES!!

Mantui -
You misunderstood my remarks, the terrorist were trying to collaspe our economic system – not bush – and they by all appearances have. How – by striking at our hub of commerce – the very symbol of our economy – the towers. Oh it would take time after they fell, but you only need look around you to see the results

I think Obama and Pelosi and Reed are too far to the left too. A democratic congress and an untested democratic president is pretty scary. I used to be a democrat who supported Hillary Clinton but apparently there is no room for moderate or conservative democrats like myself. I now support McCain and have left the democratic party for good.

So, just because this woman does not support Obama, and his “supposed goal of leveling the playing field, that makes her an elitist?? EVEN THOUGH, she has been a mjor democratic supporter and fundraiser?? ONCE again, your logic is flawed. I repeat my earlier statement: who cares where the money come from?? I don’t! Instead of harping over where someone else got their money, people need to get a clue and come up with a plan to make their own. Even the Kennedys did it–through bootlegging!

Josy.
Do you have any idea what the mean income is of all those paying capital gains taxes? I ASSURE YOU THAT MOST OF US ARE FAR FROM BEING FAT CATS. YOU NEED TO EXPAND YOUR HORIZONS BEYOND ACADEMIA. (Retired Catholic Elementary teacher).

Jose.
The people who were responsible for this current economic situation were NOT the terrorists, but the Dems in congress who would not take ANY ACTION on this problem and rebuffed Pres. Bush’ efforts to wake them up!!

Good for you, lady …
STAND UP and be counted.
We, the 28% Hillary supporters join you.
Anyone with half a brain will know that OBAMA does not deserve the privilege of being the President of the United States.
This man is all about SELF PROMOTION AND AMBITION. There isn’t a single change bone in his entire body. His record of the past 10 years in politics show you that … NOT A SINGLE REFORM IN 10 YEARS … Yet he manages to write 2 memoirs for PERSONAL GAIN…
OBAMA IS CON ALL THE WAY.

LOL….listen to all the kool-aid drinkers trash-talking this former Democrat party stalwart.
You just don’t get it, but you will as more like her defect.
Drink up!

Dems drafted a kill drill bill and with no incentives it will never pass. They act “as if”, but this is ridiculous when 70% of Americans want to drill and the Dem congress puts a stop to it. How are we going to send a message to Middle East when we aren’t willing to drill in our own backyard?
McCain is right on this….expand our energy here.

No doubt a real conservative republican bigot in a democratic facade. She does not like Obama, because deep down the white woman is a racist. As for being elite, she never bothered to take a look at good old boy John Sidney McCain the 111 heritage of being a son and grand son of her kind Washington DC connected and influence peddling and Mr. Preferential treatment all his life.. The SOB 72 year old pitbull, with four bouts on cancer and one foot in the grave has no record in the senate except for voting every time with his conservative republican and 90% with the failed Bush fiscal and foreign Policies.
McCain as far his economic know how, does not know how many houses he owns. Has not the foggiest as to where Iraq or Afghanistan are. The man is computer illiterate, cannot comb his own hair , tie his tie or clean his own A**.
He is a fake war hero and has a real military record that stinks worst then his very own conservative republican a** with perversity of inequality and rights only of his kind. The man is a through and through malignant narcissist, chronic scapegoater, uncorrectable grab bagger, who as per his life long lies and and personally hypocrisy, his so code of conduct and officer and a gentleman, is a slime bag, who considers himself beyond reproach but sacrifices others with lies, coercion, reckless abandon and impunity to promote his own outward/hypocrite self image of good and perfection.
As far as Lynn Forester de Rothschild, the gold digger, she ought to take a wiff of her own hypocrite elite stinking A** before calling Obama elite.
No wonder she know not a thing about the pentecostal evangelical conservative republican PAIN without their L. And nor he she bother to read anything about the Ms. goody goody’s control freaks life and fer fork tongue.
she need to just open the following tow links

Palin gives checks back to Alaskians…my kind of Governor. She is doing great on Hannity and seems to understand the American people want change, more control of their future and lawmakers. I am a Hillary supporter for this Washinton outsider, reformer Gov. Palin.

WELL, A “ROTHSCHILD” LOVES MCCAIN. SURPRISE!!!
DIRTY MAC’S A CORRUPT PAWN OF THE GREEDY BANKS… LOOK AT HIS PERSONAL BRIBE TAKING DURING THE KEATING S&L CRISIS.
CHANGE? CHANGE HIS DRAWERS… LMAO

C’mon Chuck! You know Obama’s a complete mess….you can’t possibly say know that you know the man.
You’re drinking down what Barbra Streisand and the left-leaning media is mixing up for you. At least with McCain you KNOW his record…..do some freaking research you sheep!

94 times Obama had a chance to vote for tax cuts and 94 times HE DIDN’T!
Posted by: Emma | Sep 17, 2008 9:21:15 PM
========================================
How do you propose this government pay down the debt.
When you say cut government spending, be specific. Which programs do you think we should cut?
==============================
Bush & McCain cut taxes, but increase spending dramatically. At the end of the day, we the American taxpayer are left holding the bag – essentially making interest payments on loans we’ve taken out from China.
That’s Bush/McCain economic policy.
1. Deregulate the financial markets
2. Increase government spending
3. Cut taxes
4. Borrow from China
And when the investment banks go bankrupt, the government is expected to step in and absorb the losses of private companies.
When these companies were profitable, the private investors paid lower taxes, and took the profits.
When these investment banks go bankrupt, taxpayers get stuck with the bill.
Thank God Bush/McCain weren’t able to privatize Social Security, or this country’s economy would truly implode!
=============
Obama/Biden 2008

Obviously Hillary has to tacitly
support Obama and spout the
“party line” however this is a very big
deal!
More Dems will follow.
Abandon the Titanic(aka Obama Campaign)
and join McCain/Palin.
Country First!

“”At least with McCain you KNOW his record”"
Yes! And it’s pathetic! The old war horse uses the excuse that he was tortured then turns around and claims what the US has done to Muslims can’t be called torture unless there’s major organ failure. So I guess his stay with the Viet Cong was really a lot more congenial than he was traded on before he cloned onto Bush.
That along with his dismal grasp of the economy and America can’t survive another Republican!

I do wish Republican automatons would quit chanting their one and only mantra:
“CUT TAXES”
Your party has been running this country for the last 6 of 8 years, you’ve cut taxes repeatedly -
Americans have tried out your cut-taxes economic policy, if if was supposed to work, it should have worked by now.
What do we see instead? The United States economy, once the envy of the world, is in melt-down!
Give it a rest. Chanting “No new taxes” as a solution to our current economic crisis is like chanting “I will be better, I will be better” as a cure for cancer.
Both are just wishful thinking.
C’mon Republicans. You’ve wasted the nation’s time by chattering on about “lipstick on a pig”, now you want to waste more of our time by babbling on about “no new taxes”.
GET SERIOUS!

Wait a second….Dem’s have controlled the purse string (Congress) and the Senate for the past couple years. I would say the present day failure rests really damned heavy on them too!

Mark…are you retarded? sheesh i cannot believe what some people can convince themselves of . did someone hypnotize you?
please dont try that “worst congress/lowest approval rating in history” bs either , everyone who is NOT a moron or hypnotized sees the republicans dragging their feet as much as possible while king lame duck gw bush does the only thing he can…veto everything the democrats DO finally get through both houses …please shut or contribute something cogent and useful to this discussion. thanks.

I think many people call Obama an elitist because he is smug and demeaning, not because he is so rich or comes from some rich family. People do not like arrogant people, period. You can be rich and not smug or arrogant. When Obama said people in small towns cling to their religion and guns becsuae of economic woes –in my opinion that was arrogant. Religion especially is a huge part of one’s identity and most likely has nothing to do with the economy. It is your own personal belief. For someone to think a person believse as they do simply becasue their town lost a factory is pretty arrogant and diminishes the person’s religious beliefs.

Typical Liberal. No defense of B.O.’s record so you resort to your elitist name calling. Trust me, B.O. won’t make the cut….too many people understand what he’s mixing in the kool-aid.
Baa…Baaa…your screen name shows you as the sheep you are! ROFLMAO!!!

“I didn’t leave the Democratic party, the Democratic party left me.”
===
When the person who has done nothing nominated by the party to be its Pres. nominee equates the accomplishments of the Clinton Administration to the disasters of the GW Bush administration, it means that party is no longer the same as 8 years ago. If the party’s nominee, for his own political, short-sighted gains in the primaries, abandoned the principles that led the country to a period of unprecedented economic prosperity and world peace, he, Zerobameus, God of Nothingness, is not worthy of support, nor is his party.

why should i defend obamas’ tiny record when i can pick apart the GIGANTIC republican screw up record of the past 50 years or so?
THE MORAL MAJORITY!!
hahaha
wonder why no ones saying that anymore? hahahah!!

Ya know Money cant buy love and it sure as heck cant buy a president hopeful….

Really? He promised to give everyone $1000 bucks if you vote for him. His Nothingness certainly thinks and hopes to buy your votes.

Yep, the Obamabutts are in full manure slinging competitions today. Of course, if Lady de Rothchild had come out and endorsed Obamabutt, you would be singing her praises and how gracious and beautiful and classy she is. Well, those of us who happen to agree with her, still think she is beautiful, classy, gracious, self confident, courageous, and we are behind her 100%. We have tried to tell you, there are millions of Democrats like this lady, that will not support a flawed candidate, an illigitimate candidate, and we will vote third party, or McCain. We are called PUMA’s. You have insisted to the nth degree that we are closet Republicans. Well, here is a perfect example of how wrong and blind you are. Lady Lynn did not work for the RNC. She worked with the DNC. She is just the most visible of what is an entire underground movement of women and men who feel just like she does. There is no party unity. It is Democrats against Democrats this election. Why don’t you understand that?

there is no such thing as a true liberal who would vote for mccain or (ugh/shudder) palin.
vote as your conscience allows you but dont try to sugar coat it. you are not a true democrat and really never were, like lady rothschild and ronald reagan.
you just went along for the ride as long as it wasnt too uncomfortable but now that uppity black man…
right?

It’s clear that Rothschild is looking after her monetary interests, b/c McCain’s main concern is his self-interest in keeping his wife’s multi-millions. If she really supported Hillary, and Hillary’s ideas, she would clearly be sticking with her principles, as Hillary has very strongly said over and over again that Barack represents the same ideals as she (Hillary) does, and Hillary is campaigning her butt off to help Barack.

A Rothschild calling Obama elitist? ROTFLMAO
She’s spewing the same rhetoric as McCain’s propaganda machine is churning out.
BTW, Obama is the author of much legislation.
Any yes, he did reach over party lines.
I’m sick and tired of these lies!

This is BIG BIG BIG… What does that say about Obama ?? Even members of his own party can not stand him , and not because he has fought against them like Mc Cain did in his own party , it is because he is too arogant and is empty of substance ! John Mc cain , on the other hand , got people in the Democratic party admiring him for the good work he has done for the country , not all Dems ofcourse ,but those who are centrist and NOT on the Obama Kool-Aid diet will see the value of what John has done over the year and give him the credit. People judge you by what you do , NOT by what you promise ! So , it will be a close race , with the independents decide the Race , throw in the “Braidley Effect” and the fact that John has the record and “battle scars” to prove for his standing up to the OLd Boys of the Republican party and thus earns the trust of Independents and Reagan Democrats , I said JOhn Mc Cain will win this Election by at least 5% points . this is exciting , Now , we will have a government that is not LeFT, or Right , not Democrat , not Republican BUT A CENTRIST GOVERNMENT FOR THE PEOPLE OF AMERICAN . Beside John Mc Cain , I do not know of any other candidate in America today who is able to do that much ! John Mc Cain courage for his country over the years has really paid off now ! Great GReat Great!

Obamatrons: when 95% of white voters support the white candidate, come talk to US about racism. Until then, if you want racism, look in your own camp, you’ve got more than enough to around.

i would be willing to wager that in at least alaska = 1/50 of the usa ,the white voter support for the white candidate(s) might possibly exceed 95%.
probably at least 90% in utah and idaho too.
and i am so glad of your god-like choosing of the 95% highwater mark for patently racist voting, personally i would think anything more than 60% or so of the white voters voting for the white candidate would constitute clear cut voting by race, but hey what do i know…you are god-like!

Great. I’m a democrat and there is no way
I would vote for Obama. He simply can not
be trusted. He will not be good for this
country period. Yes he can give a good
speech but they are not always true, he is really good at twisting the truth around so it means something else. He talks
about change but doesn’t say what change
he means and not all change is good. The
man talks too much as says too little.
Biden is ok, but even he was not for
Obama at first.

after reading countless number of comments from Americans concerning the presidential election this year, i have concluded we are a nation of ignorance.
ignorance to knowledge and awareness of the fundamentals of our government. without these basic tools, Americans are voicing their opinions of the issues and candidates based on judgement and not fact or knowledge. if the American media was not so biased, we would have more facts to develop our beliefs for a better government for all.

For fwhite: Obama has already said how he is going to promote change but apparently you have not been listening. It’s funny how people only hear what they want to hear!!!!!!!!!!

AND THEY CONTINUE TO LEAVE….AND LEAVE AND LEAVE…..WHERE ARE THE MCCAIN DESERTERS..HIS OIL MESSAGE SEEMS TO BE STEAM ROLLING THROYGH THIS COUNTRY..OBAMA BETTER GET OUT THE BIG DRILLS IF HE WANTS TO BE ELECTED..I ASSOCIATE HIM WITH HARRY RIED AND NANCY PELOSI….OBAMA REID AND PELOSI ARE ALL THE SAME…THAT IS A LOSING TICKET IN THESE TOUGH TIMES…HE NEEDS TO …………..” CHANGE”

OBAMA…REID….PELOSI…ALL THE SAME….THEY ARE AGAINST GETTIN OIL AND NATURAL GAS IN PLAY IN AMERICA….THEY ARE FOR CHANGING AMERICA…GOOD LUK

For all of you playing the race card again, the Democratic Party chairman did say that the “White Party” in one of his speeches a few weeks ago. He did later in the speech correct himself and say “Republican Party”.
So does that mean that all the white people belong to the Republican Party and all other races belong to some other party? He did not clarify himself. I am confused as some of my in laws and friends are not white and I know they are Republicans. Should I tell them they are in the wrong party?

She is intitled to her opinion.If this is how she feels than she needs to go with it.
I am more concerned with the problem in Michigan. Republicans trying to supress the votes of recently foreclosed on individuals. These are the very people who need to be heard.
This Repulican/Democrat thing is completely out of control. It needs to be about the people not the party.

Let’s get this straignt now.
Millions of Americans are going to vote for McCain & Palin and not for Obama & Biden because we love our country and know that if Obama is elected he will destroy our way of live. He is a socialist, near communist, there is no question about that. He has altered his positions on issues just to get votes but he will change back if elected.
WE LOVE AMERICA AND KNOW THAT OBAMA WOULD BE A HORRIBLE COMMANDER IN CHIEF AND WOULD PUT OUR NATION IN GRAVE DANGER WITH HIS OPINIONS OF DECREASING THE MILITARY AND OUR DEFENSE SYSTEMS. HE HAS SINCE SOFTENEING HIS VIEWS OF THIS BUT IN HIS SPEECH A YEARS AGO, HE WAS VERY DEFINITE ABOUT WHAT HE WOULD DO TO OUR MILITARY AND OUR DEFENSE. DO NOT LET THIS MAN FOOL YOU. HE IS BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD

no June, but you should let them know they are stupid sometime, in a nice kind of way…

Lynn Forester de Rothschild speaks for me!!!!
It’s exactly how I feel, and I have been a democrat all my life! I will be voting McCain-Palin!!!
Very exciting news, she will definitely make a lot of democrats feel comfortable switching, especially Hillary supporters because we know how hard she campaigned for Hillary.
PUMA!

puma = “oh that uppity black man and his uppity wife…”
pathetic

actually alaska is the biggest state isnt it? anyway, you keep on thinking those deep thoughts mr stuart smalley.

“he is a low life scum bag elitist sexist racist no experienced ego maniac that would destroy America.”
nice to see all that empirical evidence you have to support your assertions and all of it without the monotonous republican drumbeat…NOT!
you MIGHT try decaf…or a good psychologist.

“oh that uppity black man and his uppity wife…
and
“i am voting for anyone but that uppity black man and his uppity black wife…”
nice logical reasons to vote for an obvious loser,ie; he is white and the other candidate is that “uppity black man and his uppity black wife…”
why dont you just write in a vote for your dog or cat? that way you dont vote for “that uppity black man and his uppity black wife” but you dont screw up the country for the rest of us for the next 4 years…ok??

just so you know…
alaska is MORE than 1/50 of the usa ,geographically speaking. a lot more.
also, alaska represents 1 star on the flag out of 50. last time i went to school that was 1/50.
you are morons…

How come when someone like Liebermann or this lady are branded as traitors because they exercise their right to support the candidate of their choice?
How come when someone like Sen. McCain actually worked closely with members of the other party to achieve a common goal he was castigated for not being ‘conservative enough’?
Oh the horror of it all!!!

Rothschild said of Obama to CNN in July, “frankly I don’t like him. I feel like he is an elitist.
Codeword for “He is black, and I can’t tolerate a black man being president.
Enough said.
Posted by: DownSouth | Sep 17, 2008 7:12:49 PM
more like “He is black and i cant tolerate a liberal uppity black man making government tax policy and agenda that i actually will have to live by as a loyal democrat.”

Did we know before today there are designer pointy hooded robes made just for ludicrously wealthy cotillion queens who are not just ‘Rothschilds,’ but OF Rothschilds.
Face it, Lynn de Snootie, sweetie, you’re a racist. You don’t like Obama because he’s black. You can say it. Gerry did. How many castles did I read that you and your hubby own again?
She’s suggesting if she votes for Obama, she’ll actually have to lower yourself to the level of a black man. And lawd knows, deys not be civilized like us uppa crusties.
Money doesn’t buy you a heart. It sure didn’t buy that de Rot-Child chick any class.

Congratulations to Lynn and Joe Lieberman!
While it is difficult to find “the truth” from the media, a few things are clear…
Character
Judgement
Record
Issues
McCain and Palin win on all 4!

last post ,then im out. just to let you know , i am white, 48, male and have lived in the south all my life, have a degree in the school of hard knocks (+ some college learning,just enough to make me slightly dangerous)
anyway , i am at the store the other day,and i hear the ubiquitous redneck talking about how, if obama was elected, all the white folks would be “pickin cotton in alabama fo massa obama”…
(i didnt bother to tell the guy he MIGHT be better off pickin cotton , judging by the 1972 pinto he was driving and the tattered dirty clothes he was wearing…) anyway….
thats my point, this guy actually would DEFINITELY do better financially under ANY democratic president ,black orange or purple ,but his home grown ignorance plus his negro phobic attitude wont let him help himself. sound familiar??
americans,listen. this man obama cannot possibly do any more damage in 4 years that can be undone in 4 years…give him a chance to do something different, this country is going in a very dangerous direction economically (and militarily as well.)
if you cant vote for obama in good conscience then at least write in your cat or dog or whoever and dont screw the country up for 4 more years with a vote for a money grubbing republican and his air headed female protege. FOR ANY REASON THATS JUST WRONG!!!

The true is that lady is worried that more elitists,Black, Hispanic, Asian etc, could be part of the White Group in charge of our country.

I used to like the Dem, but now I’m getting scared to witness the Liberal Dem are too extreme toward Socialism or Communism.
Another thing these radical extremists always used race card against anyone who supports McCain, but none of them have ever said about Michelle. Michelle is very nasty and racist when listen to her comments. Unbelievable.
McCain/Palin/08

Notice that she uses “I feel”? This woman is choosing who she supports base on who she likes; not who is right.
McCain and Palin has vouch to reverse Roe versus Wade and she thinks pro-choice is going to be okay since it was under Bush? Bush didn’t vouch to reverse Roe versus Wade… now, it’s means that either she think McCain is a liar and will not carry out his promise or she is stupid. Either way, she is stupid…
Rothschild is another example of a woman who decides emotionally rather than logically. Palin is another for her records in trooper-gate.

I hope Lynn likes having the unknown, unqualified, but “pretty cool” Sarah Palin as president, if so blessed to make it into the white house. That is who the Republicans want in there anyway! If JM doesn’t survive they will get their puppet president. LR will wish she had her so called elitist Barack Obama in there, at the very least, to understand issues enough to discuss beyond the usual simple sound bites.

Palin may not know what Bush doctrine/policy is but facts are showing that Mcain/palin are following Bush ideology and interesting they share many common things with radicalism views such as Al-quida Here is common things I have found so far They are claiming they are the one from God doing Gods tasks to clean up demons on earth.They have black &white view of world , they say either you are with us or against us.They do not like other religions and believe their religion is the only one.They have zero tolerance to opposition, enemy should be crushed to death no talk/diplomacy with enemy.They believe they are always right, never admit their mistakes and be sorry about their mistakes.They act fist then think after , they like preemptive actions without calculating outcomes.They are selfish and ignoring and rejects facts against them.They Believe in today’s problems only and do not care about future crisis.They scare people to support them by claiming they are the only one can protect them.They do not believe in avoiding disaster by ignoring them first until becomes tool late to take action.They desperate in crisis and say you are on your own first, They are over confidence about their knowledge about issues and ignore other’s thoughts. They like power very much and do whatever it takes to get it.They blame enemy for every problem.Wake up America, We had 8 years of failed Bush policy ,As old dogs never learn new things do not be fooled by MCain after 27 years in Washington and Voting 95% with Bush all of sudden wants to bring change. enough is enough.

DNick…..50% of Americans vote on emotion…men and women chose who they “feel” is deserving of the keys to the WH. Most of us already know who we are voting for…only about 12% need to see those debates, tho I’m guessing the 85% of us who know who we’re voting for will watch too, and root for our team.
HILLARY SUPPORTER FOR McCAIN before he picked PALIN.

I saw her on CNN today (quite a surprise!), and she came across as extremely smart and thoughtful. Well, I, myself, made a modest five contributions totaling $350 to Hillary’s campaign, but I wholeheartedly join Ms. Forester de Rothschild in her support of John McCain!!
As for 2012, Hillary and Jim Webb would be absolutely smashing!!

Funny how Obama supporters cite raising more money as a virtue for their candidate. He opted out of public financing after promising he would accept it. And he still claims the “change” platform. Same old union-backed democratic party. Trouble is, Obama has NO firm positions. Americans are not so stupid to believe and elect this zero-experience elitist.

Well, she apparently does not care about the issues, including the issues that Hillary cares about. She will fit right in with the McCain campaign. The McCain campaign needs another top female surrogate after Carly Fiorina threw McCain and Palin under the bus by saying that McCain and Palin cannot run a Fortune 500 company. I can understand if a campaign advocate like her says something like this about the opposition, but saying this about your own candidates? If McCain and Palin cannot run a business, how can they run the biggest economy in the world, the United States?

He is not an ideologue and he is not beholden to special interests.
Conspiracy with the special interests that he is now attacking apparently. That’s good point.

And the left right paradigm continues.
Wake up America, niether of these canidates are good for this world.

I agree with her completely. Under President Bush abortion remained a legal option and for me abortion is not the central issue in this election at all.
The economy, national security, energy and other more issues concern me and John McCain and Sarah Palin will be able to make the difference in Washington we need.
They are the change we need, not Obama who is too afraid to select a woman as his running mate.
I admire Ms. Rothschild for having the foresight and conviction to speak out for our country.
Also Donald Trump has just endorsed McCain.
Mr. Trump is also a Hillary supporter.
I am voting for McCsin/Palin, a vote for real change!

The most significant reason she gave is that Obama is too far left…..and from the posts from Obama supporters I can see she knows what she is talking about.
She supported Hillary because she is more “central” in her thinking.

I can understand now why Lynn Forester
went from Hillary to McCain.This woman would vote for anyone that has a woman on the ticket.It doesn’t bother her that Hillary and Palin’s views are totally different.Bottom Line McCain has a woman on the ticket.Lynn could care less about the Roe V Wade and that McCain could take it back 50-60 yrs.
This woman can travel from America to England.Throughout his career in the Senate, John McCain has had a record of joining with the Bush Administration to take away women’s rights and reproductive healthcare options. At a forum in August, he pledged that “I will be a pro-life president and this presidency will have pro-life policies.” And now, he has nominated anti-choice advocate Sarah Palin to be his running-mate.
Together, this would be the most anti-choice presidential campaign ever. Senator McCain and Governor Palin support:
A ban on abortion with no exceptions for rape or incest.
Throughout his service in the Senate, McCain has also repeatedly voted to slash funding for low-income family-planning programs, against allowing women to obtain birth control and to take away women’s right to choose.

Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild is an ardent Hillary Rodham Clinton supporter who raised scads of money for the New York senator’s failed presidential campaign. She and her husband, Sir Evelyn Robert Adrian de Rothschild of the prominent Rothschild banking family of England.
How can anyone like this call Sen. Obama an elitist. She lives on two continents with her Sir Duke husband (and don’t dare call her Ms.) she’s Lady Rothschild. This is beyond lunacy, it’s like George Bush calling John Kerry a draft-dodger.
She’s just feels insulted that her rich a** won’t be able to influence an Obama administration. Talk about elitism, she is practically part of the British Royal family, and wants America to adopt the same hiearchy. McBush/Clinton

This is really hilarious. The Rothschilds are billionaires and their calling OBAMA an elitist? Another rich, white person defects to the Republicans, is this surprising?

Why do billionaires like Rothschilds call people who have much less money than they do elitists? Is it because billionaires are severely outnumbered by non-billionaires and can get outvoted in a democracy like ours?

Anthony — you are a moron.

Elitest is a Code word? So when I called Kerry and his wife Elitests in 2004, I was letting the public know they were black?
Come on…grow up!

Remember this article from the NY TIMES? (how quickly we forget…)
In 1999, Barack Obama was faced with a difficult vote in the Illinois legislature — to support a bill that would let some juveniles be tried as adults, a position that risked drawing fire from African-Americans, or to oppose it, possibly undermining his image as a tough-on-crime moderate.
In the end, Obama chose neither to vote for nor against the bill. He voted “present,” effectively sidestepping the issue, an option he invoked nearly 130 times as a state senator.
Sometimes the “present’ votes were in line with instructions from Democratic leaders or because he objected to provisions in bills that he might otherwise support. At other times, Obama voted present on questions that had overwhelming bipartisan support. In at least a few cases, the issue was politically sensitive.
The record has become an issue on the presidential campaign trail, as Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York, his chief rival for the Democratic nomination, has seized on the present votes he cast on a series of anti-abortion bills to portray Obama as a “talker” rather than a “doer.”

I can’t believe that millions of average Americans pay Barack to hear what he has to SAY, while the economy goes to hell in a handbasket, and it doesn’t cost anything to google him and see what he has (or has not) DONE!

I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I AM 61 YEARS OLD.
I HAVE NEVER VOTED FOR ANYONE.
BUT , I WILL MAKE SURE THAT I VOTE THIS YEAR.
I DO NOT WANT TO SEE OBAMA IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
NOT IN MY LIFE TIME….
PLEASE OPEN YOUR EYES,HE IS FOR CHANGE… RIGHT ! BUT YOU WON’T LIKE THE CHANGE YOU’RE GETTING…
TIGERS DON’T CHANGE THEIR STRIPES.EVER..
AND YOU CAN PUT LIPSTICK ON A MUSLIM.
AND THE MUSLIM WILL STILL BE A PIG AND A MUSLIM….

I agree with Lynn – She is doing the right thing and personally, I admire the fact that she had the personal will power to follow what she feels is the right path. I applaud and join her in supporting McCain/Palin. Anyone who thinks that BO has this locked up is SERIOUSLY mistaken. BO has taken Hillary and her supporters for granted for WAAAAAAY to long. His arrogance alone is what will do him in. Cut to “the clouds and seas parting” for BO. I can tell you that, that delusion will be a reality check for him when he has to unpack his bags and head back to Chicago after the general.
GO P.U.M.A.’s!

hillary12

To all hillary supporters she will never be president because if B.O. loses his suporters will not vote for her…much like her supporters don’t want to support Him. I hope Everyone does what they makes them feel good
