Dole Sued for ‘Godless’ Attack Ad

The BushGOP has no shame or conscience, they will simply use any attack or smear that they feel will help them win. They are about to learn in a big way that the American people have had it with this grotesque nonsense. Next election they better come ready to talk issues because this same old crap ain’t gonna cut it anymore.

Shame on Dole. She is another one just like shrub, mclame, pain, etc., etc., etc. Not only should she be sued, she should be charged with slander. Of course, the best punishment will be when she loses Tuesday night to a DEMOCRAT! Yeah!!!!

Jackson, when you hate an entire group of people you’re a bigot. There are good Republicans and bad Republicans just like there are good Democrats and bad Democrats. I thought Barack Obama stood for unity not demonizing your opponent for political gain. Are you supporting him? If so, when do you plan to live up to the standards he set for political discourse?

This really makes me sad. I always thought that Elizabeth Dole was above such things – in fact, I voted for her. Unless there is some kind of public apology, I won’t be voting for her again. These kind of smear campaigns have to end. I’m not interested in “dirt.” I’m interested in issues. If you can’t win an election on your own merits, then you’re going to have to suck it up and realize that maybe you aren’t the best person for the job.

They must have had Republican Campaign class 101 = Rules for running a republican campaign: be accusing, lie a lot, attack the other person with anything & everything you can think of; intelligent people will know it’s not true, but just keep repeating it over & over as if it were true; the unintelligent republicans will believe you because they cannot think for themselves. Whatever you do do NOT use any morals or ethics, just lie, cheat, and attempt to destroy the other persons character. Last but not least never run a republican campaign based on your own merit or what you can contribute if elected, always focus your attention on the other candidate. If by chance they appear to be winning, you must turn up the heat with more slander & lies. That’s all now class – you’re ready to run for office as a republican candidate.

Elizabeth Dole is desperate, as is her entire party, to cast her opponent in a negative light. That’s the best they can do, I guess, considering that this election is proving to be a decisive referendum on everything the Republicans stand for. Hope Kay Hagan prevails with that lawsuit.

Republican campaign tactics? How about the secret access to information about Joe the Plumber (a then private citizen)?

FINALLY!! Thank you Kay Hagan for pushing back on tabloid politics with a lawsuit. If there is a fund for such action, sign me up.

Dole is a Kansas carpetbagging scumbucket.

this is the type of idiocy I exspect from the whack jobs in Pakistan.
Only an idiot thinks allegiance to “God” makes a person worthy of a vote.
Every crooked politician goes to church. It don’t mean nuttin’. 2008 and many people still let stooges like Dole use “God”

Unfortunately we have to witness these Republican smears for a few more days. After this election we might never have to hear another Republican Smear. Word has it that their Party in meeting two days after the election to disolve the Party. Hopefully for the entire world’s sake this is true.

Dole + McCain = morally bankrupt Republican agenda. God save America from the Republican Party and their vicious smear-rucking campaign tactics. The lobbyists in power will do and say anything to keep their puppets at the money trough of the United States Treasury.

Idiots! This article has nothing to do with Obama! Stop pulling him out of your a*&!!!!!!!!

In response to the poster howling about Obama’s birth certificate:
DOH–how does one get a US PASSPORT without proving citizenship? The lawsuits about the birth certificate are about as intelligent as the woman who sued McDonald’s for spilling hot coffee on herself! GET A BRAIN and think for yourself. Considering he LEFT the US and the border police let him back in, well, I’d say that’s another Republican CRANK lie.
Or try using http://www.factchecker.com or any others. Do your homework, undecided voters, before you vote.

Let’s put our money where our mouth is and contribute to Kay Hagen’s campaign. We will show dirty politicians like Elizabeth Dole that there is no room for scum like her in the senate.
Elizabeth, you call yourself a Christian but only bring shame to the church and God. You are a CINO (Christian In Name Only).

Jessie (Helms) would be pround of Elizabeth (a chip of the old block); however everyone else in North Carolina is ashamed.

jimt, I’m not Condolezza Rice, I’m Congolezza Rice.

sullivan v new york times, 1964, kay loses….

Republicans bearing false witness. Some family values there dirtbags.

it must be embarrassing being a Republican!

You know, you think that neo-cons can’t sink lower and along comes a piece of work like Dole. This lying, immoral, lowlife was head of Red Cross at one time, when do you think she sold her soul?

Hate mongering websites you must be talking about Obama’s Pastor, his spiritual mentor the honorable Reverend Wright.

JR
You are absolutely RIGHT!!!!!
This has been a HATEFUL AND UNETHICAL POLITICAL YEAR!!!!

Neocons trying desperately to revive McCarthyism, it’s pathetic. Five more days, just 5 more days until rational thinking Americans prevail.

WOW!! Elisabeth Dole is another DIRT BAG… i’ll say this as nicely as i can: REPUBLICANS SUCK

Dole is SO pathetic. I hope Kay kicks her butt on Nov. 4th. What a shame that his woman was ever elected as a leader.

Hey Jmm1974 you do know that Obama has an Indonesian Paseport because he lived there as a child. He also as a US Senator can travel on a Diplomatic Passport which are passed out like water in DC for members of Congress! If Obama does not have anything to hide, please tell me why he will not produce a Birth Certificate not a Certificate of Live Birth. They are not the same. The Document on the website is a scaned copy of Live Birth!
If Obama has nothing to hide, than please tell my why the Governor of Hawaii has placed his birth records under seal and the only person who can request them is Obama?
If Obama has nothing to hide please tell me why he does not tell the LA Times to release the tape they are holding!
Obama can stop all this by simply saying release the documents and tape! If there is nothing to all these rumors he can put it to rest but his silence speak volumes

As a resident Tarheel, I never thought anyone could make me more ashamed than Jesse Helms, but I was wrong… I have had the misfortune to endure this filth 4 times in the last 24 hours, and I think if they would broadcast it nationally, the Republicans might lose across the board in a landslide… I mean, worse than they’re already going to… Republicans, the party of bigotry and greed, masquerading as piety and patriotism… This scumbag only spent 13 DAYS in NC 2 years ago, and only 20 DAYS last year… There is a special place in hell reserved for people like Dole, and she will rot there; Have fun losing on Tuesday, scumbags…

Oh, by the way, for the nutbars chuck and david; The orderly will be along shortly with your meds, now scoot back to the common areas with the other patients, you know you’re not allowed on the PC after dinner…

This ad is disgusting and shameful. I can’t believe the level of vitriol that is present in these campaigns and it must be stopped. While both Democrats and Republicans are engaging in this attacking behavior, the Republicans appear to be much more blatant and disgusting in their comments. I once liked Elizabeth Dole — no more!! When I heard about this today I sent Kay Hagan a donation.

Joe in NC: first, the Governor in Hawaii is a republican. Doubt she’s in the bag for Obama. Second, the state law in Hawaii already said that only the person on the birth certificate or a blood relative can request a copy. Third, there’s a court docket next month to review a lawsuit requesting access to the ‘vault copy’. So, it seem to me this action is simply to prevent any unauthorized access to the certificate, to preserve it for the court. Look elsewhere for conspiracies, like the newspaper 47 years ago that snuck in his birth report.

Susie just be truthful, you’re prejudice as hell and you’re trying to use anything you can to cover it up. Obama is no where close to the being the scum we have been under for the last 8 yrs. or the the one trying to worm his way in now.

Let me guess David: You want to hold with your very own hands and see with your own eyes Obamas Birth Certificate. I want to see and hold yours myself to verify your citizenship. It’s fair right? Also, I thought in this country we were free to believe or disbelieve in the gods of our choice. Guess it only applies if you’re a christian huh?

It is very disturbing and sad that there are so many self righteous Christians in this nation, who like to demonize others who do not think exactly like them, or hold different perspectives, even though they share the same common Christian faith. Look at James Dobson, who puts down Obama’s brand of Chrisitanity, as if somehow his is better. What Elizabeth Dole has done cannot be excused. It is shameful.

Republican Campaign Maxim #1 for 2008: If at first you can’t succeed, lie and lie again.
BTW, Ray, you’re spot on!

Elizabeth Dole has looked into the soul of Kay Hagan, and can see that she is a Satan worshipper. Thanks, Libby, for outing this witch.

wow to call someone godless when this chick is obviously not only a christian but she is a sunday school teacher as well? What kind of nonsense is this….

haha, I always find this sort of thing to be quite hilarious. This is the sort of issue you’d expect to see rearing it’s head in the internal politics of, say, countries like Iran, Pakistan, or Saudi Arabia. Nice to see how far we’ve progressed since the Middle Ages. We must expose the infidels! ..We need a full-time Inquisition PAC!

dole should be sued and lose. palin, mccain should also be sued for all of their character attacks, some slanderous if not all of them. politicians who campaign negatively without proof of charges beyond the shadow of a doubt should be sued or charged by the justice department. religion should not be allowed into politics, period.

Exactly, Coil. Nothing’s more dangerous than fanatics with money. They’ll be the death of our dear country.

I wonder what names Jesus Christ was called in his day? Creep? Socialist? Muslim? Terrorist?
Sue the hell out her, Kay Hagen. I wish Barack would, too. So many have tried to destroy this good man to keep their power. I guess it is to be expected… Afterall, look at what happened to Jesus, Mandela, Ghandi, and MLK.

Elizabeth Dole was one Republican I did have a little respect for but not anymore. It seems to me that name calling has become a substitute for discussing issues and policies and the Republicans have become very good at it.

I am a citizen of NC, and until now, a life long republican and this will be the 6th presidential election I’ve been old enough to vote in and I wouldn’t vote for Elizabeth Dole now for any public office. The ad is disgraceful and makes it clear how desperate she is and how low she will stoop. I’m ashamed to even say I voted for her in the past. Once this election is over, she can go back to her home state of Kansas, where she spends all of her time anyway. I’m changing my registration to Unaffiliated.

I live in NC. Senator Dole has been MIA until it was time for re-election. If she loses this election, it is because the citizens of NC want (and deserve) a Senator who will be available.

Shame on both of these candidates! By their actions and words they imply that an Atheist is unfit to run for political office. Our founders made it clear that there should not be a religious litmus test to run for any office. After Kay Hagen affirmed that she is indeed a Christian, she should have also made it clear that an American Atheist can be just as qualified to run for a political office as any other American. More importantly, this is just another good example why religion needs to be left out of politics – it only muddies the waters in our pluralistic secular society. Canditates should run for office on their record and not on their religious beliefs.

THESE SHAMELESS REPUBLICANS HAVE DISCORAGED EDUCATION IN AMERICA SO PEOPLE BECOME LIKE IDIOTS AND WON´T UNDERSTAND THEIR SMEAR TRICKS AND LIES CALLED SWIFT-BOAT ! THIS IS WHAT THEY ARE BEST IN BUT NO GOOD IDEAS ! WE´VE SEEN IT IN McCAIN´S AD AGAINST OBAMA ! AMERICANS BETTER VOTE DEMOCRATS AT ALL LEVEL TO GET EDUCATION AVAILABLE SO HYPOCRIT-REPUBLICANS FAR FROM GOD STOP CLAIMING BEING ELIJAH !!! VOTE OBAMA/BIDEN .

the Obama I don’t know scares me less than the McCain and Palin I do know

Dole needs a road map to find anything in North Carolina. She learned dirty politics from a master–her husband. She stepped into the dog pile with this ad and deserves whatever she gets. Keep religion out of government!

The politicians of the republican party and their hate mongering followers have a special place in Hell awaiting them. I hope that Joe the joke aka, Joe the plumbers helper will get a loan from the republican party to pay his back taxes and get his plumbers license so he can run some cool water to the penthouse in Hell for the elitest like bush mccant & dole. For the rest of you fools who are barely making ends meet. Remember, “A mind is a terrible thing to waste on the republican party.”

It’s pretty rare that politicians actually resort to suing their opponents over misleading ads. But this one was pretty clearly over the top. I hope Hagan wins — both the election and the lawsuit.

Good!!! I hope she is defeated!! I hope she loses some big dollars regarding this too!! I say it’s about time someone sued for defamation of character!! Dole Claim was bogus!! Only fact – one of sponsors is associated with that Anti-God Group.
And to think Dole put out a second Anti-God Ad!! Dole’s manager was defending on TV and not doing too well. He got caught in the noose and hung himself with his own words!!

My father is the gray haired man facing Hagan. He is a retired bible teacher and met her in a Sunday School class.

DOLE = REPUBLICAN = IGNORANT = DIRTY = LYING = STUPID = ELECTION LOSS = HAGAN WIN…..!!!!!

What goes around comes around. I hope that bitch loses big time and has to pay a giant settlement. Go Hagan go, we need those 60 seats.

The Republicans are becoming more like fundamentalist Muslim….what about separation of Church and State Miz Dole? … you and your visa/mastercard accepting preachers should stay in your prayer towers.
