GOP Slams ‘Godless Friends’ of Dole’s Foe

And the American “Taliban” speaks.

Its hard to figure out how anyone could not be embarrased to admit that they are a Republican. Lincoln must be rolling over in his grave to see what has become of his party.

– Its hard to figure out how anyone could not be embarrased to admit that they are a Republican –
It is getting harder and harder, I must admit. After this election cycle and Obama winning the presidency, I’m going to switch my registration over to either the Democratic side, or perhaps Independent.
The GOP may be old, but it is no longer grand.

I think the republican party is going the way of the “Loyalist Party.”
It soon will be the Democrats vs. the Independents and the green Party.
so much for Mccain Palin doing their party any good… Bush destroyed it…but they are now put the nail in so to speak.
Right wing morons run amock.

Man, this guilt by association nonsense is getting really pathetic. It comes from both sides, but the Republicans seem to have made a religion out of it.

this is ridiculous. Sen. Dole runs an ad on the issues, and Sen. Hagan responds with “that’s a dirty ad!” Why can’t Sen. Hagan just respond to or concede the issues in the ad? Sen. Hagan, like Sen. Obama, sees every issue as a “distraction” and make the conduct of the campaigns the only thing the friendly press will talk about.

The GOP has become desperate, they are giving up any semblance of National unity and going for their core base, the “redneck, anti-American, un-democratic” among us.

That is all they have left……
McCain can not be told NO so think of that when you vote people…..

NeoConnies are exploding all over the country!! Won’t be many left in office after Nov 4th.

The Republicans have one argument and one argument only: Guilt by association.
It is the same election after election after election after election after election after election after election after election after election after election after election after election after election after election after election…
Until one day the American people will stand up and say: No More.

AS AN ATHEIST AND NON-BELIEVER , I FIND THIS MATTER STUPID, GUILT BY ASSOCIATION IS A BAD PLATFORM TO GO ON .HOW IS THAT I KNOW A WHOLE BUNCH OF RELIGIOUS NUTS AND I AM NOT LABLE BY ALL NON-BELIEVER’S AS A BACK SLIDER. THE RELIGIOUS NEEDS TO GET THESE BACKWOOD PRIMITIVE SUPERSTISTION MYTHOLOGY THAT THEY PUT THEIR ENTIRE STOCK IN , THEY HAVE FREEDOM OF RELIGION AND THAT’S OK .WE HAVE FREEDOM FROM RELIGION AND THAT OK TOO.

NC, the home of Jesse Helms. It explains Dole as well.
Politics has always had a nasty side to it. But Jesse, first through his racist editorials on TV and then as a Senator, worked with the National Congressional Club to revive the most vile aspects of campaigning (race-baiting, outright lying on the most vicious issues, etc.). It has not subsided, as we can see from people like McCain and Dole.

Unless we have become a theocracy similar to some Muslim nations, this is totally irrelevant.

Where is freedom of speech? Where is democracy? According to the GOP, if you are liberal, or a Republican leaning Obama, you are an evil communist anti-american, Godless waste hell-bent on destroying this country. Folks, pay attention. This is the type of propaganda the Nazi party started out with! These people are dangerous! Forget Osama bin Ladin. Our very own American Taliban will destroy this country!

Dole is possessed by pineapples!

@ val
“God has never been for hatred (nor ignorance).”
You’ve obviously never read the bible. You can’t make it through Genesis without realizing that’s definitely not the case.

It’s nice to see some national coverage of this craziness. I don’t understand how helping to give a voice to a very large percentage of Americans can be a bad thing. To get a sense of just how bigoted this really is, imagine if this were an add about an African American or Jewish PAC. Not that the GOP would be above that sort of thing anyway.

The GOP has become a sad parody built on encouraging ignorance and division.

If you don’t agree with the Republicans, then you are a godless communist, nice…
Dole and McCain are both done, stick a fork in them!

All of my Republican friends feel totally abandoned by their party. How can you stand behind the crazy talk being spewed by the GOP these days. Its as if they’ve given up actually arguing an issue or finding any solutions.

Divide and Rule – Using religion and Questioning patriotism- Is this what the Republican party is made up of?- sounds very similar to Islamic extremism!

The republican party is f**king poison to the United States. It is rotten to the core and we must give it an anti-biotic now.
I can not understand for the life of me why anyone would support this vile infection.
What have we become? I am afraid that if we elect the republicans to the highest and most powerful office on this planet the terrorist of the world will consider their election a victory for them.
I am disgusted!!!

Liddy is about to go the way of Macaca Allen.
Cya!

And the republicans think they’re GOD’s chosen ones? Look at the tone of “God’s chosen ones?” Look at the rhetoric comming out of the Republican’s camp? Just because some churches are in the Republicans pockets (or the other way around) doesnt mean they’re Gods chosen. How do you know Obama was’t put here by God? I love it when a person proclaims he/she is doing God’s work. If God works in mysterious ways how do you know you are doing God’s work? Get real God doesn’t talk to you. If he did you would’t be talking (bragging) about it.

I can’t believe that people are just planning on voting for the “complete” Democratic ticket without even educating themselves about the people they are voting for.
SOOO Many Democrats are being investigated for illegal conduct (just look at NJ and NY)…In the old days…if a politician was dirty…the voters KICKED THEM OUT OF OFFICE.
Now it’s one thing if people want to vote for Obama (whether they truly know him or not)…but people should NOT just vote the Democratic ticket.
People need to educate themselves about the politicians running for Congress in their district. Just because they are Democrats doesn’t mean you should vote for them.

I am really disappointed to read this. I’m a long term supporter of Elizabeth Dole and recently voted for her in my absentee ballot. The Republican party just seems to go farther and farther down hill … I suspect one day it will go *poof* and that will be the end of it. It needs a complete makeover.

DemMcCrat for McCain: ‘Sen. Dole runs an ad on the issues, and Sen. Hagan responds with “that’s a dirty ad!” Why can’t Sen. Hagan just respond to or concede the issues in the ad?’ did you actually read the article? the host of a fundraiser is not an issue-no matter how badly the gop wants it to be.

The Republican Party has become the Party of the Big Lie. Perhaps they have come to believe their own lies?

The saddest thing about this election may be the downward spiral of John McCain. In 2000 he seemed a worthy prospective opponent for Al Gore. Might possibly have attracted my vote. But of course he wasn’t allowed to be the Republican candidate back then. A clutch of neo-conservative functionaries slew him along the road to the nomination with one of the most vicious whisper campaigns in the history of that party. The political culture of the GOP has gone from the idealism on which it was founded to the cynical, Rovian view of the world- Winning isn’t everything. It’s the only thing. Now McCain, who has admitted that just becoming President is really the only thing he’s interested in, has come under the spell of the very same people who destroyed him eight years ago. They are apostles of sneer, smear and fear, who find no reason not to lie, cheat and steal to gain power. They are devoid of the principles that we all would prefer to see in the waging of a political campaign, and devoted to maintaining their rigid control regardless of the yearnings of our free society. So now the sad man who sits in their thrall has been wiped clean of his principles and had them replaced with empty words, bogus tactics, distortion and lies. As even his opponents have said, John McCain has had a fine record as a politician, a warrior and a human being. But, like a Greek tragic hero, he has fallen to the hubris of hunger for political power to the exclusion of integrity and decency. John certainly deserves to lose this election, and with the work and vigilance of decent Americans he will. But it is sad nonetheless.

Maybe this isn’t such a bad thing. I have been noticing this train wreck coming for about the past 8 years. I guess it just took a large amount of it at once for more people to finally see it. So, what’s it going to be “conservatives?” Because I KNOW all of you can’t approve of this. And if you vote for him? It will encourage it to get even worse. This year needs to be virtue over partisan.

The GOP can’t run on issues or ideas, as they truly have neither. If they told you the truth about their plans for screwing you out of your money, your homes, your children’s futures, and all your rights, the country would have them run out of town on a rail. They deserve nothing left. What I don’t get is how some people still don’t see the shafting they have been getting for the last quarter century at the hands of the republican party and their big money friends. Maybe they just aren’t tired enough of paying for the rich to have even more than they do already. It seems almost suicidal to me, but apparently they got used to being lied to during the Reagan era and really liked it. Some of us didn’t, and saw through it at it’s outset. It brings me little joy to say “I told you this would happen”, but I did. NOW it’s “morning in America”. Smell the coffee. Get rid of the money running everything in this country and we can have our lives back. It’s time for George Bailey to decide he wants to live again and for Potterville to be closed down. And Libby Dole can go home and stay there.

Dole barely steps foot in NC since being elected, does nothing in Congress but vote party line, and she thinks this reprehensible smear is going to save her from 8 years of dereliction of duty?
She won in 2002 based mostly on name recognition and the apparently incorrect assumption that she was a classy woman.
Please help Help NC voters let Dole know it’s time to enjoy retirement in Kansas:

The concept of this ad is such a reach….almost laughable….reminds me of an SNL sketch. How embarrassing for those loyal and respectable Republicans like my parents living in rural N.C.

Another example of GOP hatred for anyone who doesn’t follow lockstep with their perverted ideals.
Non-believers make up about 15% of the population and thanks to W. and the far right wingnuts that have hijacked the republican party that number grows every day.
Maybe when Dole wakes up on Nov.5 without a job she will begin to realise it’s not ok to hate a large section of the electorate just because they disagree with her religious beliefs.
But I doubt it.

Elizabeth Dole represents Obama’s right to pray to Allah just as much as your right to pray to Jesus !

How dare ANYONE prohibit the freedom of religion or for that matter irreligious beliefs. We are supposedly protected in this right under the constitution. Would Republicans indicate that they are indeed desirous to throw out the constitution? Through that analogy, THIS would also include the Republicans into the group of un-Americans. Shame on Dole for telling us up front that we should be denied our freedoms as well.

Once again, republicans want to claim to be religious, moral, and patriotic. All others who do not agree with them are bad!
We are all Americans. We all have rights irrespective of religious beliefs.

The GOP is now the Grand Old Fascist Party… Welcome back to the Grand Old Days of McCarthyism!!

Shame, shame,shame
Are there no limits you will go to win an election? Do you have no respect for yourself, your nation, your principles?

It seems ironinc that the Republican party, which espouses so strongly liberty seems to be attacking one of the most precious liberties Americans hold dear, the liberty to choose one’s own religion, even if that is not religion. Sounds almost like the Muslim extremists who want to impose their religion on everyone else.

Wow! I know both women — have worked for Elizabeth Dole and have worked with Kay Hagan (just a difference in the way the women operate — E.Dole refers to people that work FOR her, K. Hagan refers to people that work WITH her)…and this slimy attack by Dole doesn’t surprise me at all. I’d guess that Kay Hagan has a much better attendance at her church in North Carolina than E. Dole does…but who cares?! What we need is a vibrant, smart,well-liked, competent leader in the US Senate to represent North Carolina — Kay Hagan has Dole beat on all fronts.

Be honest. NO liberal is such an idiot are they?? Seriously. You have GOT to be a staunch conservative trying to scare everyone into believing that all liberals are morons.
Tell me it ain’t so that the entire collective US liberal I.Q. couldnt screw in a lightbulb but think they can unscrew a pregnancy??

“How many Republicans actually agree with what has been going on?”
The Republican Party that I am registered with is devolving. Of course, my opinion won’t matter to them because I am voting for Obama for substantive reasons – which my party would argue now disqualifies me from ever being a Republican. Obama is smart, pragmatic, and the best leader at this time.

As a non-religious but very spiritual person I’ve never been able to understand why those who claim to believe in a god are so threatened by those who don’t. If God really exists then the opinions of non-believers isn’t going to make Him/Her disappear from the Universe. Ron Reagan is an avowed atheist. It doesn’t make him evil nor immoral.

I’d like to say a big thank you to the Republicans who produced and publicized this video. It’s great for us Atheists! I’ve already met several Atheists because of it. There’s nothing wrong with what it says about us Atheists. It’s all true.
Thank you again Republicans! Sometimes you’re alright! :o)

“Elizabeth Dole knows that Kay Hagan is an elder at the First Presbyterian Church in Greensboro,” said Hagan spokeswoman Colleen Flanagan. “This kind of behavior is so unbecoming of a woman like Senator Dole, and it speaks volumes about her as a person and as a politician.”
Shame on you, DOLE…. You will lose the race!!
