McCain Robocalls: Obama Is a Baby-Killing, America-ignoring, Hollywood-loving, Terrorist-Loving …

Concerned in OH who has been calling voter registration fraud, voter fraud that imperils the election results suddenly wants literal accuracy in headlines.

McCain – a two faced – BW Bush policy beholden GOP terror inducing rich white man who doesn’t know squat about middle class. Joe the plumber is someone who is distantly related to Keating – makes you wonder if McCain setup the Obama meeting to begin with so he could appear to know what he is talking about.

Lucky me. This is pure hate speech by the so christian, moral, patriotic, humble, honest republicans. Filth is the only word that describes this tactic. Revolting, and unfortunately isn’t this how the republican party always manages to win all the elections with such decency and fairness. Gag!!!

Looks like the All-Bama-Channel is making this look more extreme than it is! Why is there never anything on this website about the Obama Camp’s negative stuff??

If it takes these types of measures to get it through to the American people that Obama is a fraud with no provable background or significant career, so be it. To let him stroll into the WH without making the effort to warn the people would be a tragic failure on McCain’s part. It’s so easy for the Dems to dismiss every attempt to get at the true of who Obama is as “distraction.” What ever it takes to call this charlatan out is not only necessary but the duty of every individual who stands for democracy and an open society. Why have you all been so brainwashed into thinking that a McCain win equals 8 more years of anything? It’s ridiculous. McCain knows what worked and what didn’t. So what if he voted with Bush 90% of the time. That’s what party members do. That’s what Obama has done 100% of the time, voting Dem down the line. McCain will take us into a new and better direction, and it won’t be change for change sake as Obama chants. That’s what you cling to, some false hope that 1) change is always better than what was, 2) Obama is capable of following through with his utopian dreams.
For the future of our children. Vote for experience, vote for change, vote McCain.

Strange, “baby-killing” doesn’t appear anywhere in the transcript yet it appears in the headline.
Odd.

right? ABC News is so in the tank for Sen. Obama. We cannot count on the media to cover us McCain supporters or our opponents fairly and unbiasedly. They will drive whatever story, notwithstanding falsity, to make us look “desperate” and “erratic.” We must count on ourselves. From today until election day, I call on us to proudly and boldly share our support for Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin in our daily lives. Tell your friends who you’re voting for, and tell them why you’re voting for them. Tell your co-workers you don’t like the changes Sen. Obama brought to Chicago. Tell strangers when you go shopping or jogging, that Chicago is not a better place because Sen. Obama pushed Bill Ayers’s education agenda, and the South Side of Chicago is not a better place because Sen. Obama swelled the ranks of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s Trinity United Church of Christ for 20 years with our next generation. If we don’t stand up for ourselves, no one will. God Bless You and may God continue to Bless the United States of America.

maybe the were really Obama rants; he’s got all the money honey…….
and they give him something more to diss
Mccain about.
Of course, they A R E true… so that sort of weakens my argument…

I had better do some research about the negative ads and campaigns of the Democrats plus their outrageous rubric comment and post them here, above all the outrageous comments on Sarah Palin.
In addition it is not negative to question someone’s background, this is very responsible attitude of John McCain.
John McCain president 2008!

Any respect I once had for John McCain has vanished. McCain and Palin are both fear mongering liars who are willing to try anything including lying to win the presidency. I pray that the U.S. citizens are smarter than to accept that type of low life campaigning as credible. Shame on McCain and Palin for their self-righteous justification of their lies and smears. WE ARE SMARTER THAN THAT1

pitiful republicans.

“The first 6 years of Bush’s terms were pretty good.”
1 major terrorist attack that left 3000 Americans dead.
2 wars. One conducted against those who attacked us. The other based on lies.
In the war based on lies we have lost over 4000 US military personnel and had tens of thousands more maimed.
Our national debt has doubled.
Our budget deficits are out of control.
Healthcare costs have exploded.
Our children have fallen even further behind our competitors in various academic fields.
So I have to ask, pretty good vs what? The Great Depression? The Weimar Republic?

“I would rather sell out my integrity than lose an election”

As John McCain found out the hard way in 2000, Robo Calls can be very effective.

Strange, “America-ignoring,” “Hollywood-loving” and “Terrorist-Loving” don’t appear anywhere in the transcript yet they appear in the headline.
Odd.

McCain camp is desperate they keep losing wheels after each debate,they have not yet really proposed any type of real plan for the future everything is centered around Obama I think Rove and the bunch wish they were working for Obama.Or maybe go to work for Ayers,they can only come up with lie after lie,at least use your imagination to at least look like you know what you guys are doing as far as the economy goes.

“he’s going to declare Carbon Dioxide an pollutant”
Obama is reversing a Bush policy
“Carbon dioxide, the chief cause of global warming, cannot be regulated as a pollutant, the Environmental Protection Agency ruled Thursday.
The decision reverses a 1998 Clinton administration position. It means that the Bush administration won’t be able to use the Clean Air Act to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from cars.”
Concerned in OH’s argument is about as dumb as people who claim global warming doesn’t exist because we still have cold days.
This is why right wingers attack intellectuals and universities.
They want only dumb people who buy their bs left.

Though McCain said he’s not George Bush last night, Sarah Palin told me to “look closely at the records” in her speech today.
And I always listen to Sarah Palin:
TIM RUSSERT: The fact is you are different than George Bush.
SEN. McCAIN: No. No. The fact is that I have agreed with President Bush far more than I have disagreed. And on the transcendent issues, the most important issues of our day, I’ve been totally in agreement and support of President Bush.
THAT’S THE RECORD SARAH. THAT’S WHAT THE RECORD SHOWS.

No one is smearing Joe the plumber. If he’s going to get on TV and start talking about getting rid of social security and the Iraq war and every other republican talking point and then lying about what he does for a living and not paying his property taxes, something the rest of us in Ohio and around the Toledo area do, then he deserves what he gets. Oh, and skipping out on his hospital bill at St. Charles…I don’t feel sorry for him. But after listening to Joe the plumber’s babble, I’m not surprised by these ads. I predict they will drive a bigger wedge. I got one of those phone calls and hung up before it was done. Even more disgusted than before.

“Compare and contrast Katrina to the floods in OH and the recent hurricane in NO.
The difference?”
They occured during the RNC and the Republicans could not afford that embrassment.
As far as state & local officials go.
“In congressional testimony in October, Chertoff said shortcomings in FEMA’s planning, not state and local officials’ failures, were to blame for much of what went wrong with the government’s response to Hurricane Katrina.”
What a shocker! Concerned in OH, lying…again.

It’s another election and republicans are out telling lies. This is expected and not news. If, republicans stuck to issues and behaved civilly by raising the bar; now this would be news worthy.

“But the strongarmers like Ryan must be reading from some Dem handbook on how to pawn off responsibility”
Or I read the Congressional testimony of Homeland Security Chief Chertoff in which he blamed FEMA the agency under his jurisdiction as being the major culprit vs state and local officials.
You can runaway now that you’ve been confronted with facts, Emm. Its in the right winger code of cowardice.

The REPUBLICAN “REFORMERS”
John McCain – guilty of Violation of Ethics
Sarah Palin – guilty of Violation of Ethics
Todd Plain – UNELECTED individual uses power from the Governor’s office to settle personal vendetta
Cindy McCain – guilty of Stealing Drugs from a charity to feed her addiction
And the newest addition to the club:
Joe the plumber – a non-tax paying, unlicensed plumber who lied about his ability to buy a business on behalf of the McCain campaign
Cheney, Bush, McCain, Palin…all consider themselves above the law
So THAT’S what “maverick” means!

“Who care what Chertoff thinks.”
Yeah he’s only the head of the Dept of Homeland Security which is the dept that FEMA is under.
Right wingers, ignorant and proud of that ignorance.

Anne , I will answer your question:
Because everything you asked about is fabricated non-sense, McCain would look like an idiot if he tried to use those things. Not everyone is a gullible lemming like those who believe rumors.
HINT: Just because it’s on the internet doesn’t make it true. (We adults know this, but you should learn it as well)

When does life begin Senator Obama? Quoting Obama – can’t answer that because it’s “above my paygrade.”
In other words, Obama doesn’t really care all that much about “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

Glad to hear that John McCain would never run a dirty or negative campaign. What was it David Gergen, a moderate, said last night? In response to a question about what McCain should do next?
Gergen replied, “Beats the hell out of me,” adding later, “See if you can leave this with your honor in tact.”
I guess McCain is still listening to Charlie Black, Cindy McCain and Tucker Eskew. What is Tucker’s next brilliant plan? To accuse Obama of fathering a balck baby?

Jake, getting a little liberal (pun intended) with your post titles, aren’t you?

As of 3 PM CDT, I was still trying to decide between McCain and Obama. About 3:30 PM CDT, I tuned into the Situation Room and heard a segment of these McCain/Palin robocalls. THANK YOU MCCAIN. I WILL NOW VOTE FOR OBAMA. ADDITIONALLY, I HAVE QUITE A BIT OF INFLUENCE (I AM TOLD) IN SOUTH TEXAS. NOT ONLY WILL I VOTE FOR OBAMA, NOT ONLY CONTRIBUTE TO HIS CAMPAIGN BUT I WILL NOW SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT LOW SLEEZY TACTICS LIKE THIS BEING USED BY YOU.
These calls are very offensive to the voter.

Oh good!
Pubs are back in smear mode again!
For a minute there I thought we might have a challenge.
The “We really suck, but listen to this accusation” strategy works wonders.
Two straight weeks of nothing but attacks from McCain’s campaign moved Barack up several points in the polls.
Americans love negativity. That’s what they want to hear right now. Really!
Keep up the good work! And thank you!

“spreading the wealth around.” Obama final debate.
what’s wrong with that?
Watch the craxed power driven republican right wing try and pull a final explosive stunt before November 4th which is ironically Guy Fawkes Day in the UK.

Letterman: (Is Sarah Palin) “the woman to lead us through the next 9/11 attack?”
John McCain: “Absolutely! She has inspired Americans. That’s the thing we need.”
This election is so over.

The Vietcong saved McCain’s life.
Communists are a danger to America.

I bet McCain won’t share his wife’s millions with all the Joe’s and Jane’s in America but is ready to take from them to give to IRAQ!!!!!
Nov. 4th = Obama/Biden08

Why I will vote for Barack Obama for President:
I first became aware of Barack Obama when he spoke at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. I was impressed with his speech – both the content and the articulate delivery. I thought to myself at the time, “I need to find out more about him.” So, I ordered the two autobiographies written by Obama, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance and The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream. I was impressed by his honesty, forthrightness, and writing. He won a Grammy award for his reading of The Audacity of Hope.
After reading both books, I kept my eyes and ears open for any new information about him. He was soon on the covers of a variety of magazines, everything from Newsweek, Time, U.S. News & World Report to Rollingstone. As a teacher of high school students and Current Issues and Events coach at, I would learn much more about Obama and all of the other candidates from my students’ and my own research. The more I read, the more I thought he would make a good president of the United States. And, in 2007 he did announce his candidacy.
The first thing that impressed me was Barack Obama’s stand against the Iraq War. It was an unpopular stance at the time, but he was loud and clear about his opposition to the war. Since I was opposed to the war from the very beginning, I appreciated his position. From the beginning of the pre-war pitches by Bush, Cheney, and their administration, I felt that it was all a lot of hype to protect their own personal interests in Iraq. The implications that Iraq was somehow involved in the 9-11 attacks on this country and the accusations that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction even after the United Nations inspectors concluded that there were none, all seemed like a Bush-Cheney wamboozle to get us into that country to control their oil interests.
A majority of the terrorists came from Saudi Arabia, a country that the Bush-Cheney regime coddles and cows to. We have yet to stand up to that country concerning those terrorists. Instead, Bush-Cheney used the 9-11 attacks as an opportunity to go into Iraq for supposed “humanitarian” reasons. We haven’t invaded Darfur in Africa or other countries in much greater and a more dire need of humanitarian assistance. I remember my father telling me that the desire to enter Iraq by war was really about oil. He was certainly right about that. He opposed the war and said it would just be another Viet Nam with too many dollars spent on weapons, too many young lives lost, and a no win situation for the United States. How prophetic he was. My father died not too long after that, but he went to his own death knowing his was right about the Iraq War.
So, my main reason for voting for Obama is the fact that he opposed the war. But many other reasons have developed beyond that. Although younger than other candidates, he has the wisdom to realize that the middle class citizens of this country need a break – that George W.’s tax breaks for the wealthiest in this country were and are unfair. He realizes that something must be done about health care in this country, but the answer does not reside in socialization of medicine. As an educator, I appreciate the fact that Obama acknowledges the importance of education and teachers.
I appreciate the fact that Barack Obama was mainly raised by his white grandparents and honors them in his many successes. I appreciate his respect and understanding of his mother’s marriage to his father and subsequently giving birth to him. I appreciate that he has had to face his often perplexing, multi-ethnic background by soul searching and traveling to Kenya to learn the truth about his father.
I respect Barack Obama’s quest for education, the fact that he attended Colombia University, and Harvard Law School. I respect that he worked as a community organizer in Chicago, and I commend his valiant efforts to help those unemployed and homeless regain their dignity in a variety of positive ways. I respect him for being a good husband and father. I respect him for teaching Constitutional Law at the University of Chicago. I respect his continual pursuit of excellence.
He has said that he is far from perfect. I believe that is certainly true. Hindsight, no doubt, has taught him more than a thing or two. I do respect his honesty and candor in his books about the mistakes he believed he has made. I remember saying to my husband after reading his books, “He certainly put it all out there for the public and reporters to go through it. That’s pretty brave, or really naïve.” Now, I realize it was a conscious choice to be open and honest.
I respect the way Barack Obama has conducted his campaign. Against overwhelming odds, he persevered through the grueling and dirty Democratic primaries to overtake Hiliary Clinton and become the nominee for his party. He has faced many unjust attacks upon his character, continuing onward with dignity.
I respect the fact that he is willing to converse with world leaders rather than rush to war. I respect the fact that he is not willing to offer up additional young lives to situations that are unwise, rushed into impulsively, and only make the global community view us as terrorists for demolishing Iraq and being responsible for over 100,000 deaths of their citizens. I respect his stance, “NO MORE!”
I may have a naïve faith in this young man to be our president, but I have lost faith in John McCain. He sang, “Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran” while laughing about it. He picked a “window dressing,” inexperienced running mate for his VP pick – Sarah Palin. At first, she turned everyone on with her beauty queen looks and folksy cuteness. However, after the “lipstick on the pit bull” melted, the public has seen her as someone who is inexperienced, insulting, and one who has promoted racism and fear mongering in the McCain campaign. She is nothing more than a “Stepford Wife” hired to do the dirty work. I, along with many other United States patriots, do NOT believe she put “Country First” when she accepted McCain’s invitation to be his running mate. Had she believed in “Country First,” she would have said, “No. There are others who are much more capable.”
Strength and honor? From my perspective, Barack Obama has it; John McCain has lost it. This is why I will vote for Barack Obama for president.

American Republicans are hated all over the world.
For good reason, it seems.

One again, McCain shows himself to be desperate and without anything to say for himself. He’s never told voters why he should be president. All he knows how to do is attack his opponent.
Even if I agreed with his 90-percent adherence to Bush’s policies, I think McCain’s serious errors in judgment — and his angry, condescending, shoot-from-the hip character — make him unfit to be president.

Indeed, McCain is not Bush.
McCain is the only man who could make us feel nostalgic about Bush.

You are taking this country back years.Lewis was RIGHT about you and your running mate
____
Let me understand……
McCain and his wife…. who adopted a beloved black child when she was an infant in Bangledesh…. are Racists?
They are like George Wallace, who hated the blacks?
Please explain this to me…..
I fail to understand.
The only racist I can find who is running for President this time around… is Barack Obama. who condones this kind of crap..
But maybe your brilliance will show me the error of my ways.

Posted by: toll the bell fellow, it’s a sad day at wellow | Oct 16, 2008 8:01:19 PM
Lewis was likening what McCain and Parrot are doing to the hate and violence surrounding Wallace. Any thinking person would have figured that out. It had nothing to do with race, it’s the tone of the campaign they are running that he was talking about.

Dave – Sorry to burst your bubble, but I am in a house full of staunch Republicans that will be voting Democrat for the first time in their lives. You’ll have to blame us “low-life” , “sicko” Obamicans too…
btw- nice job name calling out all the people name calling. classy.

McCain is right he is not Bush. That is why he is losing in 7 Bush states.

no shred of honor left John McCain..
none, nada, zip, nuna, rien..
you’re a lier and now totally void of HONOR!

Sarah Palin is a Separatist, her husband Todd was a card carrying member from 1995-2002….supporting antics established by American Hating Joe Vogler…..Pass it on…..

“Mccain’s daughter is in no way related to McCain except by adoption and love!
Bush tried that line when Mccain ran before, and it was dis-proven.”
Reading comprehension is not your strong suit is it?
Bush operative Tucker Eschew was behind the smears of McCain’s daughter in 2000.
McCain hired Bush operative Tucker Eschew to work as Palin’s communications director.
McCain hired the man who smeared his own daughter.

I’ve heard so many outlandish, offensive and outrageous smears against Obama that it’s difficult for me to accept there are some decent McCain supporters out there. David Brooks seems to be one of them.
If you have to hurl stupid vile false insults against your candidate’s opponent that tells me your candidate doesn’t stand on his own record.
Palin seems to have ushered in the glorification of trash talking belligerent sneers against anyone whose looking for an intelligent discussion. God forbid we apply reason it seems.

TRUE. TRUE. TRUE. TRUE.

“Sara Palin has an 80 percent approval rating by hundred of thousands who put their stamp of approval on her.”
McClatchy reports today that her approval rating in her home state has tumbled to 68% — still high but surely not the country’s best. The poll by a local firm that works for both parties was taken Sept. 20-22.
“Now the entire country approves of her.”
in a new survey Pew finds that 51% of Americans now believe that Palin is unqualified, up from 37% after her announcement.

Can you believe that the RNC and McCain/Palin pay good money to put out this drivel. America is fighting two wars, suffering a huge economic crisis and flat-out broken. And this is what they offer Americans??? Just when I think the BushGOP has gone as low as it can, it sinks deeper and deeper. The Greedy Old Party of G. Gordon Liddy, Lee Atwater and Karl Rove has finally been utterly unmasked for the scaremongering, hateful, lying parasites they are. These guys are so used to bail-outs and operating outside the law that they are absolutely in a panic about the battering they’re going to take on Nov. 4.

Washington Post Editorial Board endorses Obama. They have a lengthy article why, but the last paragraph sums it up nicely:
But Mr. Obama’s temperament is unlike anything we’ve seen on the national stage in many years. He is deliberate but not indecisive; eloquent but a master of substance and detail; preternaturally confident but eager to hear opposing points of view. He has inspired millions of voters of diverse ages and races, no small thing in our often divided and cynical country. We think he is the right man for a perilous moment.

I can’t wait for president Obama!

The API put out a statement saying it was true and they have audio of the phone call from Michelle Obama
_________________________________________________
The API?.? An unknown, obscure WEB site out of Norway has a tape of “Michelle Obama”?
1. Why would Michelle Obama take time out to call an obscure WEB site out of Norway?
2. The person on the tape claiming to be “michelle Obama” speaks “broken” English so unless Princeton and Harvard have lowered their standards, I’m betting on a fake.
3. Jake Tapper called it bogus just a few days ago.

Crocodile tears last night from McCain. These are very sleazy. This must be because Obama didn’t agree to town halls. McCain is becoming a SNL parody without the benefit of good writing.

McCain has lost his honor code.

hey bruno, have you ever looked into (I mean real news, not Fox) McCain’s actual voting rrecord on POWs and the military in general? Try looking into it.
Current veterans grade McCain ‘D’, Obama ‘B’
The Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, a non-profit, non-partisan veterans group composed of those who have fought in the nation’s current wars, released its report cards Tuesday on those in Congress who they feel serve new veterans the best.
Washington’s two U.S. senators, Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell, both Democrats, each received top grades, A-pluses, for supporting nine of nine votes the IAVA considered pro-veteran, with extra points awarded for joining in sponsoring the post-9/11 GI Bill.
They did better than the two senators running for president.
U.S. Sen Barak Obama, D-Ill, the Democratic presidential nominee, received a good grade, a “B,” from the organization.
U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., the Republican presidential nominee received an unsatisfactory “D.”
The IAVA said Obama voted five of nine times for legislation considered important to Irag and Afghanistan war veterans, and cosponsored the post-9/11 GI Bill.
McCain supported the same legislation three of nine times and did not add his name to sponsore the new GI Bill, the organization said.
In a press statement, Murray said she considered the IAVA to be a significant and effective advocate for today’s veterans, and, as the daugher of a disabled World War II veteran, was honored by their recognition.
Still, she said, there is “a long way to go in terms of ensuring that our veterans have the care and benefits they deserve.”
Overall, Washington’s congressional delegation was rated favorably by the IAVA, with most receiving A-pluses and As.
Receiving A-pluses were Congressmen Norm Dicks, Jay Inslee and Rick Larsen, all Democrats.
“A’s” were earned by Congressmen Jim McDermott and Adam Smith, Democrats, and Dave Reichert, a Republican.
Reichert, in fact, was the only Republican in the state’s congressional delegation to receive high marks.
The state’s other two Republicans, Doc Hastings and Cathy McMorris Rodgers, each passed with C’s.
The organization said it based grades upon 22 votes from the 110th Congress covering a wide range of issues facing new veterans, from health care to support of homeless veterans. They included nine votes in the Senate and 13 in the House.
The IAVA selected an “A” team of highest vote getters it considers most supportive of issues facing new veterans.
It also released a “D” team of nine bottom feeders, five members of the House and four from the Senate who the IAVA says “must improve their voting records if they are to legitimately claim that they support our troops and veterans.”
No one received an F.

Just another press release from Obama’s propaganda office.

ubu: your story is flat out wrong. joe (who is not joe – his name is samuel) the plumber (who is not a plumber – not according to any plumbers in Toledo) actively sought out obama. he had a right to – he’s an american and if a candidate is in your town and you can talk to them, you should. obama did not originate the conversation. joe did. joe pretended that he was going to be in the 250K tax range (which he later said just wasn’t true – and since the average wages of a plumber are about $50K – i believe his second statement). he was concerned about his taxes. he should be. he’s behind on them.
if i were joe i would want some privacy – and i wouldn’t be happy that john mccain made me into some icon that i wasn’t – and i sure wouldnt go on national tv with his record. if this is the best the mccain can come up with – there are even more pathetic than i thought. there are plenty of honest small business people mccain could have interviewed – if he had bothered and his campaign were not so sloppy.

When you take advice from someone like Hannity Combs who has been singing these songs on his radio show it really shows poor judgment to want to lie to win an election. The Bill Ayers thing is a joke. Professionals have signed an online petition in support of Bill Ayers for who he is today not 40 years ago when Obama was 8 years old or less.Professionals are stating online: “Ayers “built an extraordinary life,” said Lawrence Grossberg, a University of North Carolina Chapel Hill communications studies professor who signed the petition. “He has become one of the leading scholars in the field of education. (People are) excoriating him for things he did 40 years ago and misrepresenting what he has done since, in order to make someone else suffer. That doesn’t seem very American to me.” It is unpatriotic of McCain Palin to lie to the American people and twist facts to win votes.

Charlotte – Thanks for that great information. McCain’s record in NOT supporting veterans is a long one and he should be absolutely ashamed of it. He has voted against the Gi Bill, against mental health cre for vets and voted with Bush on torture – after he said he never would. How that man has the gall to talk on national debates about vets and then stab them in the back when it comes to actual support is unconscionable.

McGreen, I don’t like Sarah Palin, but she didn’t do it on her own. McCain hired Tucker Eskew, the sleeziest man in politics to handle and script Sarah Palin. When you read the Alaska newspapers, Democratic politicians are mystified. They say this isn’t the woman they worked with or knew. She’s going to get an awfully cold reception when she goes home. But it makes me wonder what she would have been like if McCain didn’t put her on a leash, with Tucker in control.

McCain has become a shadow of his former self.

I don’t understand how McCain can say Obama is scary with the way he has conducted himself in this election? He is mean, desperate, and down right dishonest.

Ann-
So.. Using your logic, please tell us how does this reflect on your candidate?
Leonore Annenberg, currently the president and chairman of the Annenberg Foundation and widow of ambassador and philanthropist Walter Annenberg. Ms. Annenberg was herself the “chief of protocol” at the State Department under President Reagan has endorsed John McCain for President.

it is always funny to see repubs posing as democrats–and stating they will vote repub..——are you guy that crazy to think no one knows.

The RNC is killing McCain’s chances. Negative ads work, negative ads that go beyond all credibility backfire. Further, it makes McCain look like a flip-flopping liar (run a respectful and honorable campaign).

golly gee jeanie
mccain hides behind the skirts spewing hate on his behalf—you-betcha

heh
that was funny jake, satire right?
The most forgiving ever could not forgive the harry and nancy show.
You can find harry and nancy in the dictionary under “preclude bipartisanship”

be afraid, be very afraid.
I hope everyone will enjoy socialism..that’s where this is headed….
a man with no experience is going to decide how it all happens…people in this country are as stupid as all get out
most people vote on one issue..gee, i want abortion…gee, i want a free ride..yea obama!
Sad state of affairs….

John McCain doesn’t know anything about the truth.
They are liars.
America is woke! That’s why we are voting Obama.

I saw this and had to resurrect the ignorance coming from someone accusing Obama of racism:
“McCain and his wife…. who adopted a beloved black child when she was an infant in Bangledesh…”
BanglAdesh is a country in ASIA bordering INDIA. Someone as worldly as this has no base to launch accusations of racism toward anyone.
Cheers to the scorn of intellect of the GOP.

jeanie
i think mccain uses that high class stuff—–what kind do you use.be honest

kp: george bush started us down the road to socialsm when he let the chinese own america – through the billions he borrowed from the chinese to establish a radical shiite-extremist regime in iraq with direct ties to iran – closer than any other time in history.
but that wasn’t enough. after he biked his way through this economic apocolypse, he decided that we should nationalize not only the mortgage and finance insdutries, but the banking industries as well. nationalised banks is socialism. the feds now own 82% of american mortgages. that’s socialism. how did we get here? the neo cons board games, phil gramms deregulation and credit default swap legislation and a war that never should have started. by the way, your pal john mccain voted for the bill. my friend, i think he has been palling around with socialists who are out to destroy america.

kathy4change,
“Mc Cain brought up Joe the Plumber – 21 times – NOT OBAMA _ Guess he thought it would work and it backfired – poor old John never bothered to find out the man is unlicensed and owes $1000 + in back taxes – and now thanks to Mc Cain, the whole world knows! Speaks volumes about Mc Cain’s erratic behavior and desperate in the gutter attempts to win tis election – WE WILL NOT BE FOOLED BY A DISHONEST MAN!
GO OBAMA/BIDEN”
So much for McCain-style vetting! No wonder he chose Palin. Using McCain’s logic, only the black candidate and community organizations need investigating.
“Joe the Plumber” — the son-in-law of one of the “Keating 5″ coincidentally — makes $40K. Under Obama’s plan, that slimey fool would get at least a $500 tax break. He is not even registered to vote!
Obama/Biden 08!

Have you looked at your IRA accounts lately. Will you like discussing Ayers and abortion or your pocket book. We need to have a change in direction and the administration to change things around. Vote Democratic.

Obama has enough experience and a working non-erratic mind. He also has something neither Republicans on the ticket have…brains!
I’m tired of seeing bottom of the class graduates as President. We tried that and it does not work. Let’s try brains this time. Americans vote these bottom of the class graduates in and expect favorable results. Well, next time get a bottom of the class graduate to operate on you or your child or your mother. Get a bottom of the class graduate to fix the brakes on your car or fix your floor, etc. You always want the best. This time, it’s Obama.
Obama/Biden 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sen McCain and Gov Palin are disgusting human beings…Iciting HATE, FEAR, VIOLENCE and RACISm, it’s really disgusting. The are running the HATE TALK EXPRESS and all Americans should be embarassed and disgusted with both McCain and Palin.

mccain and palin
—boris and natasha,the badenoughs—you know the ones that tried to eat bullwinkle (the moosey)

jozy: It appears that you have an abundance of jealousy because Joe the Plumber is not supporting Obama and also because Palin is so popular drawing more crowds than Obama, Biden and McCain. Get over it. Find something to do. If you didn’t accomplish what you started out to do that’s too bad. Palin certainly did.

marianne—all want to see for themselves–(the palin freak show)

Not worth getting my hands dirty. Good luck mucking around down there.

This generation is the ruination of this country according to a statement made on TV.
Mariann, if you believe this then you really need to stop watching whatever channel you heard this from.

annie: I know all about Rove. Rove just doesn’t want McCain to win like he didn’t want Hillary to win. I don’t pay attention to Rove. He is out of politics and I am betting Bush is glad to get rid of him. Some of these races are tight so no one knows what is going to happen. And no one can tell the future. Rasmussen has one poll and CNN has another. Rasmussen has Obama and McCain neck to neck in PA CNN says different. According to Murtha from PA he stated Western PA is a very racist area so who knows that is going to happen. The polls had Obama winning in NV, NH, OH and NY when Hillary was running but she won all of them. Don’t depend on Rove or the polls depend on the voters.

I shold tape the 3 or 4 my mother gets in fl. everyday from OBama’s camp .Shes eighty and we finally made sure she mailed in her ballot for McCain.

These recorded calls usually have the effect of pissing people off more than anything else. Obama’s got this locked in, and rightfully so. McCain has run the most shameful campaign in modern history. Keep doing what you’re doing Obama!

and again, bishop please do share with us the tapes obama sends.
please be true to your self,
no doctored manufactured one.
get them to us on the up and up.
I hope we can get you to do that, but i don’t know after what you seem to have done for you grandmother and her voting ballot.

Bishop
Yes both parties do these robocalling Nobody said they don’t the difference so far is Obama either hasn’t started doing his because history shows that they are more effective to getting people to go out and vote when they are done in the final week before the election or he has been doing them and is either kepping them positive or so far only calling people that he knows are either registered Democrats or on his list of supporters. I would be interested in hearing what the calls your mother gets are saying but only if it comes from a reputable news source in the form of a quote. Even if it comes from FOX NEWS.

I’m sorry, but where’s the conflict? Those are all true. So what are you trying to say Jake? Maybe the get the plumber stories didn’t work too well today so now it’s time to pump up the McCain robocalls.
Only problem is, they are all true.

They will have to eat their words.. Obama is a good man

I really think it is a disgrace for anyone who first has served this country to be so dishonorable. I think people should really stick the issues and stop personally attacking people with these horrible comments. McCain should be a shame of himself.
For all those who are supporting McCain/Palin ticket they are the first to both have ETHICAL CHARGES AGAINST THEM RUNNING ON THE SAME TICKET. So, I see why they would run such hate and pray these two don’t get in the white house we had ENOUGH!

I should have also added this to my comments about how John McCain has chosen to run his campaign. It’s also time for the media to stop treating what McCain is doing as comparable to Obama’s attack ads. There is no comparison here. And certainly Obama’s attack ads have lots of truth to them and don’t go nearly this far in attacking someone’s character or creating false fears to scare people into voting a certain way. Just show me one Obama ad that is close to the character assassination attempts in these robocalls or several of the McCain-Palin stump speech comments. Yet I hear the media refer to both candidates as doing the same things. JUST STOP IT ALREADY. There is no comparison that can be made either in the way both campaigns are being conducted nor the tenor of these campaigns. Believe me if Obama had wanted to sink into the same gutter as McCain there would be ample fodder to do this with including a valid attack on McCain’s military service like the GOP mounted against Kerry.
RJ Crane,

Obama is whining and weak!!!
Oh I am too fragile and weak to accept criticism. If I am criticized too much I might break!! Gimme a break, you are running for president. Everything is fair game. Your ads are lies and you claim to take the high road.
This guy is not an american. He is an extremist muslim. He won’t be the first black president. There were 5 of them already. He would be the first Muslim president!!!!
We have killed 14 million American babies since Rowe v Wade. That is an obscene holocaust that has gone on for too long. Obama you are a baby killer. People call it Women’s Rights, or Right to Choose. If those 14 million Americans were alive today, who would they choose?

The sad fact is people who pay attention to the issues and have strong opinions, like most everyone who posts on this blog, will not decide the election. We never do. It’s the indecisive, half-moronic, walking braindead “undecideds” who will choose our next president.
These Robocalls, for better or for worse, are intended to appeal to the undecideds’ most base emotions, and they work. Obama will most likely counter with Robocalls that take the high road because he has that luxury with his huge lead. Don’t you wonder what type of person hasn’t made up their mind yet? It’s the type of person who will let this kind of tactic affect their vote. Then again, they might change their mind as based on the last sign they see heading into the polls.

Here is a little tidbit about the Democratic priorities that you did not and will not hear in the press. There was $33 million dollars in the bailout bill for American Samoa for tax credits for development. Well guess what folks during the vote for the increase in the minimum wage corporations operating in American Samoa were exempted from the minimum wage increase. Seems Starkist Tuna a subsidiary of Del Monte, which just happens to be in Nancy Pelosi’s congressional district, has a tuna processing plant in (drumroll please) American Samoa. Why is this an issue you might ask? US jobs are being exported to American Samoa and the reason being that they can pay slave wages and with the blessing of Nancy Pelosi and now they are receiving $33 million of your hard earned tax dollars as well. Think about the hypocracy folks. It works both ways. Both parties are corrupt but of course this didn’t make headlines because it might blowback on Obama since it is his party involved in the hypocracy. When Tom Delay, and I was never a fan of his by the way and actually think he got his comeupance, was involved with slave wages in the British Mariana Islands with one of Jack Abramoff’s friends, it caused an uproar from the Democrats and the press included stories about it when the Abramoff scandal broke. By the way the $33 million was added to the bailout bill before the second vote. How does this help you and me and the middle class you might ask? I doesn’t but it sure helps one of Pelosi’s constituents though. I rest my case.

I sort of think the right wingers enjoy all the hysteria they create and that’s why they won’t give it up. Two conservative blogs are floating two MORE specious stories about Obama (too outlandish to reprint here, but one is from the National Review), just to see if there’s a nibble.
It’s like when the Cold War ended, writ small. A new enemy was sought, someone to get all lathered up and expensively derfensive about.
The commie ghost disappeared from under the bed of the NRA belt buckle wearers, and they got nervous and started feeling around for something, anything to huddle up with their guns over.
Right wingers need drama, scary scenarios, kooky eschatology, any excuse available (like Obama’s middle name) to get all screamy and redfaced and pump those chemicals through the bloodstream. Whew! That was a good one. Let’s get a smoke and compare mirror sunglasses.
Look at it this way: each party in this race has its redfaced shrill people, people who LIKE to get in arguments.
I’m one. That’s why I constrain myself to civic action that doesn’t tingle that nerve.
But there are fewer people on the left with the temperament of, say, John McCain. Fewer impulsive hotheads.
Being a hothead is not considered a doubleplusgood trait by most on the left (can I get an Amen for even that mealy-mouthed qualified statement?).
John McCain IS Joe the Plumber, in a way. John McCain is The Angry Old White Man. Most of McCain’s male supporters skew old and white. Old stallions all, angry at their diminishing physical powers. Their vanity is rupturing. The ex got it all. Screw the job. The kids don’t care.
Big bluster and big guns are Joe McCain’s last weapons, and the latter makes him dangerous.
..

Sorry, meant to say Angry BALD White Men.
..

Hopefully there’s some large-scale PAYBACK when Obama wins, which he will do.

Absolutely disgusting! The Republican Party, had it any intelligence to show would do so by beginning to rebuild its fractured Party, not by further polarizing itself to its base. The McCain campaign is showing just how amateurish a level a political party can act.

Who would have thought that the TURTH would hurt the liberals that hate America so much.

What if….What if McCain is right? What if Obama is really dangerous for our country.
Did u think about that?
Do u all who vote for Obama really want to take that big of a chance?
Shame on u all!

There is nothing wrong with any of those phone calls.
NOTHING!
If the truth hurts you people so badly, then you picked the wrong guy.
Liberals are a disgrace to this great nation.

The 3 a.m. robo calls are waking people up claiming to be from Senator Obama himself.
But if you listen to the entire almost 10 minute long call…it comes from a Republican backed source.
Obviously the desperate GOP is just trying to pizz folks off now since they can’t get McCain elected on any of the issues. Instead they have started to scrap the bottom of their Dirty Tricks barrel.

“The Truth Hurts”?
I should think the truth about how McCain is in the pockets of the same lobbyists all other Republicans are in would hurt more.
I should think the truth about how Palin is intimately involved with a political group that advocates armed insurrection and seccesion would hurt more.
For every attempt at a sleazy smear McCain pulls on Obama, there is a similar charge to be levelled at McCain which is WAY worse. He’s done, and so is right-wingism!

Dang! If you’re going to print this bunk, you should at least debunk it. If McCain twists the truth enough, it might as well be a lie, and you passed it on “as is.”

one of the comments above wrote (scathingly) that Bill Ayers said that we are each others’ keepers. It compels me to say that that sentiment is parallel to the socioeconomic system of the first Christians. Acts of the Apostles states that they held all things in common. Each man sold all his possessions and laid the proceeds at the feet of the Apostles, WHO DISTRIBUTED THEM ACCORDING TO NEED. Guess the early Christians were socialists too. Just food for thought.

McCain has said himself, publicly and recently, that Obama is a decent man that one need not be afraid of to have as president. Why then do conservatives and the Republican party continue to press the idea that Obama is a huge risk? It shows no respect whatsoever for your candidate, and if you you don’t even respect what he says, why should anyone else?

I am not surprised one bit to read these right wing nuts say such horrible things..they have no hearts, they have no God, they have no religion, they have no morals, they have no conscious, they have no dignity, they have no soul and they truly have no LOVE for their country, they rather see this country go down in flames than their own washed up party. How sad, I so pity them and their ignorance and arrogance. I laugh at them. This country belongs to ALL of us not just Rep–ALL OF US, and we are all in here together so you better get used to us “Liberals”. Keep on using your hate to cover up for the fact that you despise yourselves and can’t even look at yourselves in the mirror. Go on, spit venom from your mouths, as if that is what this country needs right now. May God help us all and his grace forgive the atrocities that you are committing against a man that has done nothing but live the American dream, the one we are all worthy of living. Go on and make yourselves believe that McCain and Palin are saints…their hands are as dirty as mud and their souls are as empty and cold as a winter night.

I am not surprised at all that McCain and Palin have shrunken ever further to grasp at the only straws they may feel they have left…playing the “fear” card. It’s dispicable and ultimately condescending to the American people’s intellegence. Don’t they realise that by trying to scare people the only result will be adding insult to injury?
McCain, you have dug your own grave by showing us the sick acts you are capable of. How on earth can anyone trust you? Please crawl under a rock now.
Those of us who support Obama are, unfortunately for you, the insightful ones. We aren’t touched by your fear-based propaganda!

In a time when people simply do not trust the government and we are waging an unjust war is it possible that the ayers connection is seen as a positive by many? Was Ayers not protesting the Vietnam war – another unjust war. In the past 4 years I have heard MANY politicians and journalists say it is time to rise up. Isn’t that what Obama is doing – creating a popular revolution and literally attempting to sieze back our control of our own government in the name of the middle class? Is it possible that Ayers told Obama that the reason things escalated to violence was the lack of a president who would listen to the people.

I am so grateful first of all to even SEE a BLACK man run for president. I am shocked that McCain and Palin would try to degrade this whole election with cheap tricks because you’re losing. Palin uses Hollywood all the time for comedy games. Comes on people, do you REALLY SEE SARAH PALIN being Vice-Pres or President? These tactics are useless.
It’s time for a change and stop being
SCARED. McCain/Palin STOP slandering
Obama and run with DECENCY and RESPECT for once in your miserable lives. Obama/Biden are here and they ARE THE CHANGE WE NEED AND WILL HAVE.

If the McCain camp wants my vote, the first thing it should do is stop throwing garbage at me.

What I don’t understand anymore is the definition of terrorism. We call Osama Bin Laden and Al-Queda terrorists, and even sink so low as to call all Muslims such. But who are the real terrorists? Maybe the people who vote to illegally invade a country for its oil and kill thousands of their civilians…? Maybe its the people who torture captives whom have no access to the rights of habeas corpus…? Look in the mirror America.

In the lovely red state of TN, where I live, we find a Fundamentalist Church on every street corner. They go twice on Sunday and on Wednesday night so that they can sin the rest of the week. Oh and let me tell you of the abortions rate in those churches that profess to denounce such practices. Let a situation hit their family..well…you know the rest of the story! Hypocrits all(or mostly all)-and hopefully those hypocrits will not prevail-GO OBAMA!

First check everything out at Snoops
Secondly, the Muslims for McCain are very upset with these robcalls. One person on CNN said “Muslim does not mean terrorist.” In fact he stood up to a person who had a sign stating that Muslim was another word for terrorist. In truth, “terrorist” is substitute hate monger word for the N word.

I do beleive Sen. McCain does not have a clue some of the time, not necessarily his fault. He is aging and it shows,sorry to say. Maybe the beginning of a dementia, or impaired judgement.He is willing to let the people who smeared him in 2000 continue with disgusting attacks against SEn.Obama, as if they were his supporters all along. I have never seen a Presidential campaign this low. I just cannot believe he even knows just how he has tainted his reputation. His values have changed, or at least my impression has changed. Sen. Obama has shown a steady,even temper in spite of the anger shown toward him by republicans. If McCain loses he can take a self examination of his character and admit he and his party are his own worst enemies.

I agree with you, Saxman.
And, James Johnson, how do some right-to-lifers rationalize that the life of a baby created from rape is any less valuable than a baby created from any other situation?
I, personally, believe the government should not be involved in abortion one way or another. I also believe that if a baby, during an attempted abortion, is born who could live without support from machines, a viable baby, the baby should be given support and adopted out. The baby should not be denied food or subjected to whatever other means abortionists use to let this viable life die.

Hi Move On Member! Well said!
I have seen exactly what you are talking about. Myself with my coupons and carefully budgeted items, behind someone with food stamps with steaks, beer and cigarettes.
I believe we all should help those who cannot help themselves, but there are people who are just as able bodied as I am sitting home watching talk shows all day and causing trouble at night. From what I have seen, many a time these same people who supposedly can’t make it on their own are the very resourceful and entrepreneurial people who start their own drug dealing businesses.
I receive the Move On newsletter, too. I’ve always voted for whoever’s ideals most closely match my own. This time my choice is an easily made choice of McCain/Palin. No one’s perfect, but they’re a sure a far cry away from Obama’s socialistic ideals. Also, when Palin joined the ticket was the first time in my entire voting life that I actually was voting for someone wholeheartedly instead of voting for the lesser of the evils, McCain being head and tails in front of Obama already on that. Palin brought it home that there is still integrity in many of our politicians. With McCain’s love of country and his fortitude to do what’s right instead of following the crowd, I believe these two might just clean up Washington over the next four and probably eight years.

Thank you cj2008, and I would like to say that I tend to vote as you do. I vote for the guy that I think will do a better job and can lead our country regardless of the situation it is in. I hate that I voted for Bush in the second election, but I feel he was better suited than Kerry for the job. My decision came down to the last week of the election when I had to make a decision. I simply couldn’t see Kerry making a split second executive decision like how Bush would. Albeit, Bush is wrong a lot of times, but when a decision has to be made, you need someone who will make it and not worry about what the polls say. I know we as citezens are supposed to be informed with everything the goverment is involved in, but no one can seriously think we are (regardless of who the president is). We simply cannot be entrusted with everything that goes on. We need a president that will make decisions regardless of what the polls say. If his intelligence tells him to do something, he needs to do it, and have the general good of our country in mind when he does.
I am just a middle of the road guy that feels like he has been forced to vote Republican twice in a row. It may not be the cool thing to do, and I may not necessarily want to do it, but at the end of the day I have to vote for the guy that I feel will do a better job. If McCain wins and is horrible, then a lot of my friends will be telling me that they told me so. If Obama wins and is horrible, I will be the one pointing the fingers. Whoever wins, I hope he ends up being the better man for the job and no one gets to say they told anyone so.

I don’t understand the hatred. I don’t understand people shouting “Terrorist!” and “Kill him!” about Obama at Palin rallies. This is a United States Senator from Illinois, not a terrorist. Didn’t McCain swear an oath to uphold the Constitution of the US? Is it against the law to threaten a US senator with murder? People who allow this hatred to happen in their rallies are responsible for the consequences. Did anybody get these threats on camera? Where is the Secret Service?

RESPONSE TO “TRUTH HURTS”:
You say Liberals are a disgrace to this country. Tell me, what has happened in the past 8 years with Bush at the helm? We are now faced with “another” Bush trying to claim the Throne, but he will not get there! Intelligent Americans are tired of the lies, and the manipulation. When 9/11 was “allowed” to happen, Bush took full advantage of this situation. He used our fear and anger to manipulate us into attacking Iraq who did nothing to us at all! By doing so, we are no better than any other terrorist group on earth. Who was in charge of the 9/11 investigation? McCain of course. I am going to ask every single one of you this one question regarding 9/11, no one the answer in 8 years of my asking it:
On 9/11/01, your President Bush was at a very highly publicized event. He was at the Emily T. Booker Elementary School for a reading of a book by the second grade class. Before the reading started, Bush was told by Andy Card that a plane hit the WTC. Bush went on to start reading with the class. When the second plane hit, Andy Card told Bush and also told him that they did not know how many planes were hijacked. According to the FAA the number was as high as 12. Bush states the reason he did not leave the reading was because he did not want to frighten the children. Don’t you think they might have been slightly more upset if a plane were to hit the school? Therefore I ask all you Bush lovers this question…”HOW DID BUSH KNOW THAT HE AND THE SCHOOL WERE SAFE FROM ATTACK?
Bush stayed at the school for another 20
minutes after hearing of the attacks on the WTC. HOW DID HE KNOW HE WAS SAFE?
Ask yourself this question and search for an answer. If you do come up with a rational answer, then ask yourself, but why did Bush give NORAD the order to “stand down” when they had 17 manned fighter planes ready to handle the situation.
THOSE OF YOU WHO THINK MCCAIN WILL BRING CHANGE TO THIS COUNTRY ARE WRONG. YOU ARE MERELY VOTING REPUBLICAN DUE TO YOU BEING A REP ALL YOUR LIFE. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE MCCAIN LOVES WAR, THINKS HE KNOWS IT ALL, AND IS TOO DAMN OLD FOR THIS OFFICE.
As for his running mate, Palin is just a wonderful woman isn’t she? This is a broad who cares more for her career than she does for her own family. She has a 5 month old baby with Down Syndrome who will need his mother. She also has a 17 year old daughter who dropped out of high school because she got knocked up, and is giving birth in 8 weeks. Yep, Sarah you are a good woman..NOT!!!

People like Cj2008 scare me. Your comment about food stamps is unfair, but unfortunately not surprising for a Republican. I work with low-income families EVERY day who work full time, play by the rules and still can’t make ends meet – all while corporate CEOS make out like bandits, earning millions, and pay their employees poverty wages with no benefits . . . WalMart anyone? The state of California pays tens of millions each year to provide MediCal benefits to WalMart employees – those are my taxes at work – while the WalMart family makes out like bandits. Research shows that WalMart employees are the top recipients of taxpayer-paid health care. Republicans have no problem exploiting government resources, or giving millions to fat cats on Wall Street and in Washington, D.C., – but help a family in need, and they scream welfare reform.
Every day I see hardworking families who are nickeled and dimed to death, and even with food stamps, their children go hungry. Where’s our bailout? We deserve a break, so let government redistribute wealth DOWN for a change, and take from the corporate robber barons who make their millions exploiting their employees, share holders, and the American taxpayer, and share the wealth for a change. Obama WILL get my vote.
McCain/Palin are hypocrites, and they’re dirty tactics are despicable, designed to stir up fear and divisiveness.. Calling Obama a “terrorist” and “socialist” is low. The $ bill that the Republican party sent out full of racial stereotypes? Disgusting and ugly. Neither Obama, Biden or the Dems have done ANYTHING close to this. The Republicans know that hate-baiting and fear-mongering works – I grew up in S.C. and know people who fervently believe Al Gore is a “devil-worshiper” because he’s an environmentalist and that Hillary is a lesbian becaues she’s feminist. The Republicans know it’s not a big leap to make the same folks believe that Obama is a “muslim” and “terrorist.” And these people will vote for McCain. The Republicans and McCain have put ego and ambition above what is best for our country.
And calling Obama a socialist is ironic. The $700 billion in corporate welfare that Bush just gave to Wall Street is the biggest socialist move ever made in U.S. history. But who cares about facts? The Republicans NEVER have a problem finding the money to pay for the mistakes of their cronies – but for every day people like me, there’s never a bailout,never a break. There’s NEVER any $ to fund healthcare, and other vital human needs. NO money to help homeowners facing foreclosure. But everytime their corporate buddies screw up, there’s always money to bail them out – and we end up paying the price. WHAT HYPOCRITES.
All they’re doing is trying to sow the seeds of fear and hatred of those perceived as the “other.” Anything to get elected. Anything to keep their money and power. They don’t give a damn about America. McCain was one Republican I always had respect for. Not any more.
And when did Obama “attack” Joe who is not really a plumber? Obama has attacked McCains policies, not his character. That is not being negative. In the meanhwhile, the Republicans are showing their true selves – using loaded language to breed hate and confusion, sending party literature full of the worst racial stereotypes Americans hold about blacks – watermelon, fried chicken Kool Aid – how can any Republican accuse Obama of being negative, and not look at the behavior of their own party? But why am I surprised. McCain supporters act no better than him – and this is NOT the time for this kind of leadership. America deserves better.
I can’t wait til President Obama proves all the haters wrong. He has and will show you how a real leader should act. Especially Emm and Concerned in OH – I’m concerned that people like you vote. If Obama is a “fraud” with “no provable background or significant career” then what the hell was George W??? A frat boy and drunk who could never keep a job. And Sarah Palin is hardly better. She governs a state with a population smaller than Santa Barbara. She is NOT qualified to lead this country, nor does she have the demeanor or leadership, as her negative sniping clearly shows. Emm derided Obama for being “inexperienced,” yet you defend Republican candidates who haven’t any at all – again, hypocrites.
God help us even McCain wins. The powers of darkness, ignorance and greed will seize the day – ordinary Americans like me won’t have anything left if we get 4 more years of Republican rule.

“Hi, I am a republican operative who want’s you to believe I am an idiot because I believe I can convince you to be an idiot too and vote against your own interests and those of our country.” Holy cow – I believe you! Dude Move On please just Move On.

The ring-wing fanatics and their lying deceitful campaign of whispers, rumors, smears, mudslinging, and now, the sleazy lying ‘robo-calls’ should demostrate to the American people the true nature of these creeps! They mean to deceive, distort, obscure and dupe. BUT, Check for the true facts and ALL of their in-the-gutter propaganda turns out to be lie-filled smears. They truly are the fear mongering and hate mongering lowlifes of the politic process and they must not be elected to office. No More Smears! No More Same Old Same! No McCain/Scary-Palin

Perhaps instead of whining about the robo calls you could try to dispute the facts of them? Each of the four examples in this article are 100% true. You can’t go negative when you are talkinga bout facts. OPINIONS can be positive or negative, but FACTS are statements of information.
So prove me wrong. Prove the robo calls wrong. McCain has crossed the aisle more than 3X asoften as Obama, yet Obama is the candidate for change? Obama selected a 35-yr beltway insider as his VP yet he’s the candidate for change? Give me a break. Take off your Bush hatred goggles long enough to see the facts of the situation instead of your red-hot angst.

Here is an article from the local paper about a woman who was accused of death threats to Obama by someone making campaign calls to her. Unfortunately the call was not recorded, but here is what the lady claims she said: “She asked if I was an Obama supporter, to which I replied, ‘No, I don’t support him. Your guy is a socialist who voted four times in the state Senate to let little babies die in hospital closets; I think you should find something better to do with your time.’ (And then) I hung up.”
So, it appears that callers from BOTH SIDES are getting out of control. At least the Republicans 1)record their calls and 2)don’t call the secret service in when they get bent out of shape. Whether the lady really did make a death threat or not, we will never know. Regardless, do idle threats require secret service attention?

Sorry, the link to the article I posted below has been deleted.
Basically, a woman was called my an Obama campaigner and questioned about who she would vote for. Her response (listed below on my previous post) was misinterpreted/falsified into the lady wanting Obama to end up dead on a hospital floor. The next day the secret service knocked on the ladies door and confronted her about wanting to kill Obama. She claims the campaign caller lied about her saying she wants Obama dead. The lady is now pressing charges against the Obama campaign caller. Both sides are playing dirty.

The Obama retirement plan. I love it, we want to tax and take your money and possessions so we can spread your wealth among us. I will not have to work for that acorn to hustle fake votes. They said the more fake votes the bigger cut of your wealth we will get. Us Obamiacks were told when the master Messiah is elected we will party on your working backs. I want your car and your house . You will just give me your money. I just love Obama’s tax plan. Retirement brought by the messiah Obami. Sdcialist is a code word for communist

I am so disappointed in some Americans and their willingness to believe lies that are not even based on facts. If you take the time to go to Obama’s site and read the 64 page handbook outlining his plans to improve America for all Americans, you would find that he is a Democrat, not a Marxist, a terrorist, or any of that crazy sounding stuff. I think some American’s are just affraid of black people. There I said it. And they are looking for reasons to not vote for Obama that don’t come right out and say I don’t want to vote for him because he is black. So people become so affraid that they listen to crazy stuff, and please know that the GOP know some people are scared and they are using your fear against you. The majority of Amicans would benefit if Obama can deliver on his promises. Are you going to let fear keep you from getting a break from the Elitist experience of the last 8 years?
I’m voting for Obama. People only resort to trying to scare you into voting against the other person when they can’t say anything good about their work to make you vote for them.
Mc Cain can kiss my hinny! Obama ’08!
PS: I am not a marxist or a terrorist, I’m a tax paying American just like Obama.
