The Republicans would actually be charging Obama with trying to institute communism instead of socialism, but to do so would destroy their claim that Reagan singlehandedly destroyed communism.
Obama blatantly lied to the American people when he said he only had a superficial involvement in ACORN, when it is a FACT that his involvement is much greater and has occurred for a longer period of time that he admits too. ACORN has admitted that it supports Obama and the Democrats, so it is not non-partisan. The voter registration fraud they’ve perpetrated has now come to light – another indisputable fact. It is clear from these dubious activities that the Democrats are attempting to steal the election this time.

You know, in the old days, the site of folks in white sheets burning crosses used to be scary.
Now, not so much.
Kind of the same thing with the whole “Hussein” thing.
Its really more sad than anything else at this point.
Perhaps we need to elevate our education system as an issue in this election – clearly ALOT of people are falling through the cracks.
I believe this is why intelligent & honest republicans like Hagel, Powell, Buckley, Eisenhower are endorsing Obama in hopes of saving their party from destruction. They see Palin and shudder.

Let the Britannica explain it:
Socialists complain that capitalism necessarily leads to unfair and exploitative concentrations of wealth and power in the hands of the relative few who emerge victorious from free-market competition.
Because such people are rich, they may choose where and how to live, and their choices in turn limit the options of the poor.
As a result, terms such as “individual freedom” and “equality of opportunity” may be meaningful for capitalists but can only ring hollow for working people, who must do the capitalists’ bidding if they are to survive.
As socialists see it, true freedom and true equality require social control of the resources that provide the basis for prosperity in any society.
Spreading wealth can do a lot of good things to society according to a true Socialist.
First, I am a Democratic. While I have never voted Republican I WILL NEXT MONTH!.
The reason I am not voting for Obama this year is this: The rabid Media bias, the same crap they used to bring us to WAR, they are the problem. No vetting of the inexperienced Obama being shoved down our throats.
In 2000, the American public watched passively in silence as the republicans stole the election. They did this right in front of us and no one said a thing. This year, as I watched the primary – and now this election – unfold, I see the Democrats doing the same thing. They stole the nomination from Hillary and installed BO as the nominee. By refusing to hold a fair and open roll call at the Dem Convention, the DNC violated one of the fundamental rights of Americans.
I have watched as Obama himself and those who surround him continually violate what I consider to be fundament principals of democracy – especially freedom of speech. He violated this freedom in using the courts to block certain unflattering TV ads done by 527 pacs. It seems that the Democrats are all for freedom of speech and thought – indeed, they insist they are champions of intellectual freedom. However, whenever anyone disagrees with their views, that person is scorned, reviled as reactionary – and if you dare to say that you aren’t going to vote for Obama then you are labeled a racist.
. We should have been outraged in 2000 when the republicans stole that election and we should be equally outraged this year as the Democrats try to steal the election, continually suppress and intimidate free thought and speech by charges of racism and use of the courts to silence speech that is not consistent with the party line.

I’ve seen the Obmama future and here it is: Any country in Africa except Israel and South Africa. Cuba. China, North Korea.
I WISH there was a candidate that was sauve, clever, smart like Obama who was not the most liberal voting member of the Senate. With the Dems having a super majority expect HUGE inflation, HUGE government, failing business, enormous taxes, eroding healthcare and believe it or not, more wars with a depleted military (bullies attack the weak) Our contry WILL change to soclaiism whcih crushes innovation and productivity.
I really do understand why people WANT to put faith in Obama. His ideologies are what makes him very very scary Think twice folks. Even if you aren’t a big McCain fan, his being a Republican President be a check and balance to a runaway Democratic congress.
Be careful what you wish for.

Ignorance is the leading cause of this disease that we have here which is called hate these people suffer from a phobia that is called bigotry they are still in the era from pre civil rights ,it’s so silly that they cannot realize that this is a new era.They are closed to the thought of reading and opening their minds and that is really stopping them from progress.They would rather be lead to the watering hole by a blind folded person than by someone that is willing to show them an open and clear picture.
So y’all are blaming the repubs, funny, if you look a little further you will probably find a disgusted dem. I look for Obama to carry cities in the midwest, and only cities. The thing I am really interested in is watching Illinois, you will see northern Illinois go for Obama, and southern go McCain. Obama hasn’t bothered to bring his platform to these areas, he sticks to the cities. As for the sign, offensive, no, they could have left off the turbin, but the rest is pretty accurate.

Subject: a school teacher’s research
To All My Friends, this is long, but very important, please take the time to read it.
This election has me very worried. So many things to consider. About a year ago I would have voted for Obama. I have changed my mind three times since then. I watch all the news channels, jumping from one to another. I must say this drives my husband crazy. But, I feel if you view MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News, you might get some middle ground to work with. About six months ago, I started thinking ‘where did the money come from for Obama’. I have four daughters who went to College, and we were middle class, and money was tight. We (including my girls) worked hard and there were lots of student loans.
I started looking into Obama’s life. Around 1979 Obama started college at Occidental in California . He is very open about his two years at Occidental, he tried all kinds of drugs and was wasting his time but, even though he had a brilliant mind, did not apply himself to his studies. ‘Barry’ (that was the name he used all his life) during this time had two roommates, Muhammad Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, both from Pakistan .
During the summer of 1981, after his second year in college, he made a ’round the world’ trip. Stopping to see his mother in Indonesia , next Hyderabad in India , three weeks in Karachi , Pakistan where he stayed with his roommate’s family, then off to Africa to visit his father’s family. My question – Where did he get the money for this trip? Neither I, nor any one of my children would have had money for a trip like this when they where in college.
When he came back he started school at Columbia University in New York . It is at this time he wants everyone to call him Barack – not Barry. Do you know what the tuition is at Columbia ? It’s not cheap! to say the least. Where did he get money for tuition? Student Loans? Maybe.
After Columbia , he went to Chicago to work as a Community Organizer for $12,000. a year. Why Chicago ? Why not New York ? He was already living in New York . By ‘chance’ he met Antoin ‘Tony’ Rezko, born in Aleppo Syria , and a real estate developer in Chicago . Rezko has been convicted of fraud and bribery this year. Rezko, was named ‘Entrepreneur of the Decade’ by the
Arab-American Business and Professional Association’.
About two years later, Obama entered Harvard Law School . Do you have any idea what tuition is for Harvard Law School ? Where did he get the money for Law School ? More student loans?
After Law school, he went back to Chicago . Rezko offered him a job, which he turned down. But, he did take a job with Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland. And guess what? They represented ‘Rezar’ which is Rezko’s firm. Rezko was one of Obama’s first major financial contributors when he ran for office in Chicago . In 2003, Rezko threw an early fundraiser for Obama which Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendelland claims was instrumental in providing Obama with ‘seed money’ for his U.S. Senate race.
In 2005, Obama purchased a new home in Kenwoood District of Chicago for $1.65 million (less than asking price). With ALL those Student Loans – Where did he get the money for the property? On the same day Rezko’s wife, Rita, purchased the adjoining empty lot for full price. The London Times reported that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born billionaire loaned Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before Obama’s new home was purchased. Obama met Nadhmi Auchi many times with Rezko.
Now, we have Obama running for President. Valerie Jarrett was Michele Obama’s boss. She is now Obama’s chief advisor and he does not make any major decisions without talking to her first. Where was Jarrett born? Ready for this? Shiraz , Iran ! Do we see a pattern here? Or am I going crazy?
On May 10, 2008 The Times reported, Robert Malley advisor to Obama was ‘sacked’ after the press found out he was having regular contacts with ‘Hamas’, which controls Gaza and is connected with Iran . This past week, buried in the back part of the papers, Iraqi newspapers reported that during Obama’s visit to Iraq, he asked their leaders to do nothing about the war until after he is elected, and he will ‘Take care of things’.
Oh, and by the way, remember the college roommates that where born in Pakistan ? They are in charge of all those ‘small’ Internet campaign contribution for Obama. Where is that money coming from? The poor and middle class in this country? Or could it be from the Middle East ?
And the final bit of news. On September 7, 2008, The Washington Times posted a verbal slip that was made on ‘This Week’ with George Stephanapoulos. Obama on talking about his religion said, ‘My Muslim faith’. When questioned, ‘he make a mistake’. Some mistake!
All of the above information I got on line. If you would like to check it – Wikipedia, encyclopedia, Barack Obama; Tony Rezko; Valerie Jarrett: Daily Times – Obama visited Pakistan in 1981; The Washington Times – September 7, 2008; The Times May 10, 2008.
Now the BIG question – If I found out all this information on my own, why haven’t all of our ‘intelligent’ members of the press been reporting this?
A phrase that keeps ringing in my ear – ‘Beware of the enemy from within’!!!
Sean A
In just a few weeks that will be President Obama!

HP Boston,
Interesting that this is coming from you.
Have you ever heard or read the sayings:
“Those who live in glass housses should not throw stones”.
OR
“What is good for the goose is good for the gander”.
I guess you would have loved Obama supporters to turn the other cheek EH?
NO, NO, NO. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
We will punch you right back and follow it with a kick in the groin.
HP,
Could you provide some sourcing for all your wonderful stories? (I know you can’t attach a link, but maybe a mention of the publication where found?)
Could add some “validity” – as now it seems like you are trying the old “two wrongs make a right” approach, and of course, that never adds up!
Thanks!

The Socialist Governor of Alaska should look at herself before she calls names. Alaskan citizens each receive approximately $3000 per year from the state (paid for by businesses). That makes Palin the biggest Socialist politician in the country. Her record speaks for itself.

HPBoston: It would be nice if occasionally you kept to posting things of relevance to the article instead of filling every single message board on this site with anti-Obama posts. If you are voting against Obama that is fine but I would prefer to see pro-McCain arguments rather anti-Obama sentiments. Otherwise I have to question your motives in voting Republican, as both McCain and Obama have pros and cons and I personally feel that McCain’s cons outweigh Obama’s.
It is nice to know that there are some people who are looking at the big picture. dO, i have read your remarks before and you are into educating and that’s the best medicine for ignorance. Thanks for the hope!
t-shirt’s sported by obama supporters that said palin is a ****
i heard no out cry of disgust by the media.
unfortunately this unequal treatment is going to result in long held resentment that will not be resolved at the ballot box.
what a shame at a time of economic vulnerability when we should be united i fear we will be more divided than ever.
its seeing things like this why i am going to vote only for democrats for the house and senate too these racist thugs cant have any one in government nowhere no how.
I know I’m late to the party on this comment, but it’s laughable: “and if you dare to say that you aren’t going to vote for Obama then you are labeled a racist.”
And if you dare to say that you ARE going to vote for Obama, you’re only doing it because he’s black (*cough* Colin Powell *cough*).

They all have a few things in common:
1)They have uncontrollable hatred for Obama; 2)They must have a lot of free time on their hands; 3 Their conclusions are usually based on speculation and not facts; 4) No one reads their long post; and 5) Their sources are web sites that do not use sources from where they got their information.

The right-wing nutjobs who like this kind of billboard never would have voted for Obama anyway.
The decent Republicans and independents who have not yet made up their minds will be repelled by such displays of ignorant hatred — and vote for Obama.
I am one of those voters — a Republican turned independent. I could weep when I consider what the GOP has become — a party of lies, hatred, and fear.
May God help our country if McCain and Palin win.
Mclame made his point stupid people vote too! I can’t belive other repuclicans tolerate this but with a scorch the earth campain mclame is running it doesn’t suprise me. But Mclame is so old he can’t figure out the only earth he’s scourching is his own carrer.

The final death-rattle of Nixon’s politics of hate.
Good bye, Nixonland. Hello America.
On taxes, it seems that McCain is the only person who can claim that he cuts taxes on every individual, while Zero raises taxes on anyone/couple filing more than $110K gross income.
Why do you prefer for the government to tax more from most individuals (not the so-called top 5% that Zero has lied to you).
Maybe, for those of you making less, you got less tax cut in absolute dollar amount than the rich, but you still get a greater percentage of tax cut than the rich.
It just happens that 1% of $1 million ($10,000) is a lot more than 10% of $20K (2,000).
If Zero uses 1% of his Harvard smart to explain what profit margin and net profits are, you probably would have not so disappointed. But, it would have exposed his lies, wouldn’t it?

although i am not white i really do believe that white’s had made big progress in overcoming racism especially in the last 30 years. unfortunately the ‘favoritism’ and outright hatred toward mccain and palin exhibited by obama supporters, hollywood and the media has reopened an old wound that was beginning to heal and will now reemerge. i am concerned that this will set-back all the gains made.
regardless of who wins this divide will render us vulnerable as a nation on many fronts. a nation divided will fall. how truly sad.
I have just spent the last few days watching people and the media attack a man named Joe for asking a question and receiving an answer that the libs want to run from. I guess it’s okay to question and attack hard-working people like Joe the plumber, who coincidently are the real people who make this country work, but we aren’t supposed to question and expose candidates like Dear Leader Chairman Obama. Libs can get away with far more disgraceful attacks, like the Sarah Palin is a See You Next Tuesday t-shirt, but look how upset you people get when a conservative presents facts about the dear leader. I don’t see anything written on the sign that isn’t true. Even on Meet the Press (September 7, 2008), Chairman Obama slipped and referred to his past association with Islam. I am beginning to think all libs do is whine when someone doesn’t agree with them. I know that has been my experience with some of my liberal friends. Get over it. Can’t someone practice their first amendment right in this country anymore without someone trying to shut them up? Seems to me the most dangerous issue in this election is the fact that everytime I turn around, someone is trying to shut an opposing view up.
Wow Jake. You can show this nasty billboard but you posted a link to a blog with comments about the Obama supporters T-shirts that said:
Sarah is a ****! (without the **’s of course)
Why not just show the T-shirts? Your continued bias towards your guy Obama is telling…
Hope you never cross him the way WGN radio did by having a “anti-Obama” guest on the air….then you too will be targeted…kinda like Joe the Plumber.
I am NOT voting for B. Hussein because he hates the U.S. Flag, the Star Spangled Banner, the U.S. Constitution, and he supports anti-American theology and anti- American terrorists.

OBAMA 2008
Guess those 175 thousand that showed up to listen to him over the week end in MO. must have missed that one or realized the uneducated group who put it up were not worth their time.
I’m a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight…..
If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you’re ‘exotic, different.’
Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, a quintessential American story.
If your name is Barack you’re a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you’re a maverick.
Graduate from Harvard law School and you are unstable.
Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you’re well grounded.
If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, b ecome chairman of the state Senate’s Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the
Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran’s Affairs committees, you don’t have any real leadership experience.
If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000 people, then you’re qualified to become the country’s second highest ranking executive.
If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you’re not a real Christian.
If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you’re a Christian.
If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.
If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only with no other option in sex education in your state’s school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you’re very responsible.
If your wife is a Harvard graduate laywer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family’s values don’t represent America’s.
If your husband is nicknamed ‘First Dude’, with at least one DWI conviction and no college education, who didn’t register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.
OK, much clearer now.
The above documentation, shows how Barak will continue to use American tax dollars, Barak has set records in asking for earmarks in the senate while
John McCain has never asked for any, get it Ameirca, please get it!

John McCain is BEGGING for more Joe/Sam the plumbers to send him videos at this rally this morning. Its all the senile peanut has…..
Why don’t you post a picture of those idiot people wearing the offensive Sarah Palin t-shirts? It would be a nice dichotomy of someone who is practicing their right to free speech (the Obama sign) and someone who is just tasteless, but in essence, doing the same.
I agree with MikeNC- slap a beautiful red, white, and blue AMERICAN FLAG and a nice OBAMA photo on that sucker!
ENOUGH of this RACIST filthe on our highways and biways.

How dare the media print his middle name, shame on you!
His middle name should be deemed classified and never be spoken again, or written.
Sorry Your Point. I don’t sit around all day, waiting for a government entitlement, reading these things. I have a job, pay taxes, and am trying to move up in the world without the government trying to help me out (when in reality they are holding me back).

Sarah Palin knows how Obama is socialist. She has first hand knowledge.
She raised taxes on a few (oil companies) and sent out welfare checks to all Alaskans regardless of income.
The difference between John McCain and Barrack Obama.
John McCain’s positions are life sustaining for America.
Barrack Obama is too reduce the strength of America and the self-sufficiency of the America life.

It’s his middle name. Blame his mother and father, not the guy who painted the sign. Why do you libs want to run from everything that has made up Obama’s life? His past and his middle name is part of who he is. Why don’t you show us his birth certificate to prove that his middle name isn’t Hussein. Oh, that’s right, you are running from that too.

interesting so now the obama (sarah t-shirt wearing) supporters are libertarians i wonder did you confirm their voter registration like you did joe the plumbers OVERNIGHT?
given this line of reasoning maybe the sign markers are libertarians as well.
UNLESS OF COARSE JAKE SAYS SO! THE GRAND AUTHORITY OF VOTER REGISTRATION STATUS.
Let’s break it down…
Barack Hussein Obama is his name.
The turbin/head wrap. Barack dresses like this when he gets his foreign policy experience. Shall we google the photo?
Is Barack Hussein Obama going to do anything to LOWER the number of abortions?
Is Barack Hussein Obama going to outlaw gay marriage?
Is Barack Hussein Obama for lowering taxes or for “spreading the wealth”?
Is Barack Hussein Obama pro second amendment? What has he done in Illinois?
Yahtzee!!

I hope that people are able to see Obama for what he really is – a cheap Chicago thug.
He is shamelessly violating campaign finance laws to rake in record amounts of cash – in other words, he is laundering money.
He is fostering voter fraud through ACORN in an attempt to boost his chances of winning – in other words he is stealing from the American people.
He is intimidating opposition voters and supporters through the media and his local machine – in other words he is employing a protection racket where those that don’t pay the necessary tribute are “burned out”.
He is embellishing his record through a steady stream of lies and misinformation – in other words, he is employing a communist-like propaganda approach that silences the opposition.
Obama is, in and of himself, a one man criminal enterprise. Unbelievable.
My fear is what he will do if elected. Specifically what hapens when he faces his own “9/11″. If Obama stays true to form, he will seize upon such an event as a vehicle to wrest more control – the possible suspension of habeas corpus, the implementation of martial law, the suspension of Constitutional rights in the name of national security, and the suspension of elections. If you had asked me last year, I never would have even thought Obama was capable of such things. But this is not last year, and after witnessing a series of acts that are reminiscent of Stalinesque tactics, I certainly believe he indeed has the potential to become freedoms public enemy number one.
Biden’s speech yesterday about Obama “being tested” due to his inexperience was particularly troubling. He was asking for support even if it appeared that the acts of a President Obama were troubling. Huh?????

“Someone needs to go up there and paint over his middle name!!

Well, if his middle name is being used to arrouse anti-arab sentiment, then it should not be used. If the only way a candidate can win is too “anger” people into the voting booth, then that just means they offer nothing to the nation.
McCain: Nothing to offer, but hate.
“The turbin/head wrap. Barack dresses like this when he gets his foreign policy experience. Shall we google the photo?”
The maker of the sign was not trying to convey Obama’s foreign policy trip. It is meant to make him look like a terrorist, so people will be too scared to vote for him.
Obama is actually about as gentle as a teddy bear.
as i remember obama himself has made fun of his big ears, funny middle name, and was photographed wearing a turban.
i have seen cartoons/u-tube videos about mccain/palin and hillary that were more disgusting and less truthful.
while mccain’s bus was shot at, yet total silence by the media, that is DANGEROUS!
“Follow the money with OBAMA, that will connect the dots for these morons who are ignoring every piece of evidence.”
Thanks for the tip. I did what you suggested, and found out that Obama’s two million donors came come from all over the US, all different ethinicities and age groups. They were mostly small dollar donations. The biggest grassroots movement ever.
Hey Kellie,
Glad you finally see the light!!

Subject: a school teacher’s research by Sandra:
Thank you ( a million times) for your research. I’m a registered democrat and I have some feelings that is pulling me back to vote for him. I just don’t trust him. Look at our US elections, we never had “fight the smears” website. All candidates came out as who they are what they are (bad and good of course because they are all humans). But only with him, things started to turn upside down. To me, Obama doesn’t have a “True Identity”. He’s lost his identity all his life.
Posted by: joe | October 20, 2008, 1:31 pm 1:31 pm
Every time something like this comes out of the lunatic fringe, more Independent and moderate Republican voters move toward Obama. Keep it coming!
Will our enimies take advantage on Obama’s skin color? Please read below:
Libya Col Muammar Gaddafi referred to Obama as “our Kenyan brother”, Col Gaddafi also said Mr Obama might suffer from an inferiority complex because of his African origins. “We fear that Obama will feel that, because he is black with an inferiority complex, this will make him behave worse than the whites,” Gadhafi told a rally at a former U.S. military base on the outskirts of the Libyan capital Tripoli.
“This will be a tragedy,” Gadhafi said. “We tell him to be proud of himself as a black and feel that all Africa is behind him because if he sticks to this inferiority complex he will have a worse foreign policy than the whites had in the past.”
He was speaking before thousands of cheering supporters at a ceremony to celebrate the 38th anniversary of the departure of U.S. troops from Libya.
Let’s see—Ehud Barak, prime minister of Israel (1999-2000) and Israeli war hero—-King Hussein of Jordan, American Ally—-so what’s the problem with a person’s name. Is everyone whose name is Timothy now to be considered a terrorist or have terrorist connections because of Timothy McVey? Give me a break!

joe: “Subject: a school teacher’s research by Sandra:

“Sandra’s” research has been debunked as lies over at the urban legends website, Snopes. There are reasons to vote against Obama, but that easily (and thoroughly) debunked piece of fantasy chain mail is an embarrassing one to champion.
I don’t know why African-American are so crazy about him. Obama’s father was Kenya African, who didn’t suffer the same the segregation and discrimination that we, African American in the US had suffered. His father wasn’t even in the civil rights movements. Most African -American like myself belive that he came this high because he had a White mother. He’s in love with him so much, that was why he wrote two books in his first term senate. What are his experince? He spent most of his senate years writing his books, book signing tours and campaign. He wants to be popular and gets attention, but I don’t think he’s qualified to be the President. I know his best intention for this country but I doubt he loves this country as much as McCain does.
Posted by: black speaking out | October 20, 2008, 1:39 pm 1:39 pm
Oh. Jake has also not pointed out that Biden or Obama have not “faced the media” in more than a month. Although, he mocked Palin for this serious offense for days on end.
Nor has Jake seen fit to publish the hit piece that the NY Times did on Cindy McCain over the weekend. Including the fact that their “reporter” used a Facebook posting to try to ferret out information from a teenage friend of the McCain’s youngest daughter as a source for her “story”. The NY Times has now become lower than the National Enquirer….but that’s not Newsworthy enough for Jake Tapper.
Oh…and then theres the little matter of shots being fired at the McCain bus.
Again…not news, according to Jake.
Cynical whites are getting ever more delusional and desperate as we get closer to their final countdown.
How does it feel to know that everything you stand for will be minimized with a stroke of the President’s pen?
How does it feel to know that your children will now feel liberated to engage with others outside of their “racial crab box”
How does it feel to see your Great White Hope in McCain be handily reduced to Bozo the Clown in only under a year?
Oh, I forgot….McCain has “That One” right where he wants him, right?
POTUS OBAMA – End of the Cynic as We Know Them
I admired McCain when he said “all the line of McCains have served this country during war and peace”. He deserves the oval office than Obama, whose father didn’t even serve this country and didn’t even pay tax for this country. Instead took all the best of this country (education at University of Hawaii and Harvard and two white American women). He dumped them like trash without child support, that’s why Obama’s mother had to depend of food stamps. I personally like Obama, who is smart, polish and Harvard graduate. But those facts won’t make a good president. George Bush went to Harvard as well and how did it turn out today? Bill Clinton went to Yale and he was the only President ever to have sex with an intern in the White House. Obama is more show off person than real person. Do we really know him well? To me, he’s a man without an Identity. Nobody really (truly) know him even his campaign people.
Is there something wrong with the sign?
What is untrue about it?
The reporter of this blog did not seem to know either.
Name: Barack Hussein Obama – correct.
Message of sign that Obama will bring more abortions, taxes, gun regulations and same sex marriages.
Most likely. Too bad the sign maker did not have space for more things Obama will do for our country.

The Honorable Junior Senator from Illinois, who earmarked a cool $1 mil for his wife’s employer who raised her salary by 150% up on his election to the Senate, has a middle name without the double quotation marks.
Therefore, technically, it is wrong. The junior Senator’s name is a Barrack Hussein 0bama, not a Barrack “Hussein” 0bama.

I’m not voting for Obama but I think who ever put that sign up is about as low rent as you get almost like what they have been doing to Palin it is really sad that the media only shows the vile supporters on both sides they have no taste for the good on either side what a shame this is what we get from are MSM.
What galls me is when people wallow in their ignorance. That is what is happending within the Republican party right now and it is disgusting. But hey, it is free speech, so please continue to show your ignorance. It will turn this election into a landslide for Obama….
No offense to the presumed Republican that said this sign is “almost like what they are doing to Palin”. How pray tell is this anything like the critcism that she has received? It is one thing to criticize a candidates policies, judgement and words. All of which are fair game and all of which have place Palin in the crosshairs of both liberal and conservative pundits alike. But distorting a candidates’ origins with racist propaganda and distorting their policies with outright lies seems to be common place among many of McCain’s supporters. Palin’s treatment has been respectful in comparison.

I see the natives are restless, need I remind you’all the Democrats got us into this mess we are in, and if you select the ONE as your President you will have more of the same and probably much worse.

Come on show me state show me you can turn blue and show people you are not as that sign despicts you.You are all better than that.I think a poster saying something happened without proof is just that a non fact
I use fact check which is an unbiased as any place can be,Lets see obama has said he does not believe in same sex marriages but does believe incivil unions so these people can be families and support each other He does howeve say it should be up to the states to decide.On abortion he wants more education and other ways to prevent pregancy in the first place which would or could mean less and less abortions.About gun control their should be some kind of control or the thugs will be the ones owning the guns.Look at the school shootings,the shootings in malls .With the right kind of gun controll these may have been prevented. No one wants to take guns away from hunters or people that want them for protection.It is the criminal and unstable people tha should not have access to guns.I don’t think anyone can disagree with that.Go to fact check on taxes Obama plan helps you much more than Mccains plan does untill you reach the 250,000 mark .Who ever made the sign did not know what they were talking about and some of you are drinking from the cup of hate
Can’t you idiots see that it’s been photoshopped? That’s not a real billboard.

I have always believed in intelligent design, but I see these hominids slowly evolving towards human beings; I am beginning to have my doubts. I see the terror these double digit IQed folks have at an Obama presidency and wonder if it is his policies they fear or something else. Oh yes, I remember now. They are lowly trash and feel bad about it when they look at all of those Republican billionaires they want to be and the one thing right wing Republicans can offer them is that they are patriotic and not black.

The person who put up that sign should be ashamed of themselves not only at the distortions of Obama’s stands, but the implicit insinuation that Muslims or Middle-Easterns cannot be trusted.
Look at the emphasis on his middle name, the picture of him wearing a turban Middle-Eastern men wear. This is a great insult towards all Muslim and Arab-Americans.
Powell said it all on MTP. Is it wrong to be a Muslim in America? He then recounted the story of a Muslim-American soldier who died serving in Iraq, and I saw the photo of his mother at his tombstone, it made me tear up. Muslim-Americans have served America courageously, and do not deserve this.

Why on earth will right thinking People want to stay Republican?
I have asked myself a couple of times but I don’t seem to be getting answers.
May be the GOPers on this thread will be willing to tell me why they are still in a Party that spread so much hate and lies?
No Country can progress without love. If there is so much hatred from a group of People such as this, how can we justify the motto “In God we trust”
Isn’t God about Love? Didn’t the Bible say Love is the most important of the Commandments?
Why do we have so many Evangelicals in the Republican Party who are pro-life but who so willingly kill with their thoughts and words?
Why is there so much hatred from this group to a fellow Christian, who may, If GOD ordains it, be the President-elect of the United States of America in a few days?
Has God’s name become just a tool to garner votes now? Is he no longer in our hearts?
We can disagree without being disagreeable.
Whatever the outcome of the Election is, America will remain one and indivisible.
But let us not guile ourselves, we can’t continue with so much hatred in our hearts and expect prosperity to abound.
I wonder how one can have so much love for Dogs, Cats and other Pets and yet have so much hatred for a fellow Human being.
What hypocrisy!!!!
I reckon they must be worshipping another God than the one we read about in the BIBLE.

Obama blatantly lied to the American people when he said he only had a superficial involvement in ACORN, when it is a FACT that his involvement is much greater and has occurred for a longer period of time that he admits too. ACORN has admitted that it supports Obama and the Democrats, so it is not non-partisan. The voter registration fraud they’ve perpetrated has now come to light – another indisputable fact. It is clear from these dubious activities that the Democrats are attempting to steal the election this time.

Let the Britannica explain it:
Socialists complain that capitalism necessarily leads to unfair and exploitative concentrations of wealth and power in the hands of the relative few who emerge victorious from free-market competition.
Because such people are rich, they may choose where and how to live, and their choices in turn limit the options of the poor.
As a result, terms such as “individual freedom” and “equality of opportunity” may be meaningful for capitalists but can only ring hollow for working people, who must do the capitalists’ bidding if they are to survive.
As socialists see it, true freedom and true equality require social control of the resources that provide the basis for prosperity in any society.
Spreading wealth can do a lot of good things to society according to a true Socialist.

First, I am a Democratic. While I have never voted Republican I WILL NEXT MONTH!.
The reason I am not voting for Obama this year is this: The rabid Media bias, the same crap they used to bring us to WAR, they are the problem. No vetting of the inexperienced Obama being shoved down our throats.
In 2000, the American public watched passively in silence as the republicans stole the election. They did this right in front of us and no one said a thing. This year, as I watched the primary – and now this election – unfold, I see the Democrats doing the same thing. They stole the nomination from Hillary and installed BO as the nominee. By refusing to hold a fair and open roll call at the Dem Convention, the DNC violated one of the fundamental rights of Americans.
I have watched as Obama himself and those who surround him continually violate what I consider to be fundament principals of democracy – especially freedom of speech. He violated this freedom in using the courts to block certain unflattering TV ads done by 527 pacs. It seems that the Democrats are all for freedom of speech and thought – indeed, they insist they are champions of intellectual freedom. However, whenever anyone disagrees with their views, that person is scorned, reviled as reactionary – and if you dare to say that you aren’t going to vote for Obama then you are labeled a racist.
. We should have been outraged in 2000 when the republicans stole that election and we should be equally outraged this year as the Democrats try to steal the election, continually suppress and intimidate free thought and speech by charges of racism and use of the courts to silence speech that is not consistent with the party line.

I WISH there was a candidate that was sauve, clever, smart like Obama who was not the most liberal voting member of the Senate. With the Dems having a super majority expect HUGE inflation, HUGE government, failing business, enormous taxes, eroding healthcare and believe it or not, more wars with a depleted military (bullies attack the weak) Our contry WILL change to soclaiism whcih crushes innovation and productivity.
I really do understand why people WANT to put faith in Obama. His ideologies are what makes him very very scary Think twice folks. Even if you aren’t a big McCain fan, his being a Republican President be a check and balance to a runaway Democratic congress.

A popular blog owned by an Obama supporter called “I Miss My Mommy” ridicules children with Down’s Syndrome and attempts to humiliate Sarah Palin for being a bad mother. The comments are filled with messages from Democrats who find this hilarious.

Ignorance is the leading cause of this disease that we have here which is called hate these people suffer from a phobia that is called bigotry they are still in the era from pre civil rights ,it’s so silly that they cannot realize that this is a new era.They are closed to the thought of reading and opening their minds and that is really stopping them from progress.They would rather be lead to the watering hole by a blind folded person than by someone that is willing to show them an open and clear picture.

So y’all are blaming the repubs, funny, if you look a little further you will probably find a disgusted dem. I look for Obama to carry cities in the midwest, and only cities. The thing I am really interested in is watching Illinois, you will see northern Illinois go for Obama, and southern go McCain. Obama hasn’t bothered to bring his platform to these areas, he sticks to the cities. As for the sign, offensive, no, they could have left off the turbin, but the rest is pretty accurate.

Up until a few months ago this kind of tactic and hate was hidden in “robo” emails, now it is right in front of our faces.
I hate to say it but it is to be expected. Slavery took over 500,000 lives to be abolished but that was in name only. Racial oppression still exists in some measure today.
We will never completely eliminate it.
We have come a long way, stay positive, stay focused and get out the vote.

I have watched as Obama himself and those who surround him continually violate what I consider to be fundament principals of democracy – especially freedom of speech. He violated this freedom in using the courts to block certain unflattering TV ads done by 527 pacs. It seems that the Democrats are all for freedom of speech and thought – indeed, they insist they are champions of intellectual freedom. However, whenever anyone disagrees with their views, that person is scorned, reviled as reactionary – and if you dare to say that you aren’t going to vote for Obama then you are labeled a racist.

Posted by: Jae | October 20, 2008, 12:27 pm 12:27 pm
Subject: a school teacher’s research
To All My Friends, this is long, but very important, please take the time to read it.
This election has me very worried. So many things to consider. About a year ago I would have voted for Obama. I have changed my mind three times since then. I watch all the news channels, jumping from one to another. I must say this drives my husband crazy. But, I feel if you view MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News, you might get some middle ground to work with. About six months ago, I started thinking ‘where did the money come from for Obama’. I have four daughters who went to College, and we were middle class, and money was tight. We (including my girls) worked hard and there were lots of student loans.
I started looking into Obama’s life. Around 1979 Obama started college at Occidental in California . He is very open about his two years at Occidental, he tried all kinds of drugs and was wasting his time but, even though he had a brilliant mind, did not apply himself to his studies. ‘Barry’ (that was the name he used all his life) during this time had two roommates, Muhammad Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, both from Pakistan .
During the summer of 1981, after his second year in college, he made a ’round the world’ trip. Stopping to see his mother in Indonesia , next Hyderabad in India , three weeks in Karachi , Pakistan where he stayed with his roommate’s family, then off to Africa to visit his father’s family. My question – Where did he get the money for this trip? Neither I, nor any one of my children would have had money for a trip like this when they where in college.
When he came back he started school at Columbia University in New York . It is at this time he wants everyone to call him Barack – not Barry. Do you know what the tuition is at Columbia ? It’s not cheap! to say the least. Where did he get money for tuition? Student Loans? Maybe.
After Columbia , he went to Chicago to work as a Community Organizer for $12,000. a year. Why Chicago ? Why not New York ? He was already living in New York . By ‘chance’ he met Antoin ‘Tony’ Rezko, born in Aleppo Syria , and a real estate developer in Chicago . Rezko has been convicted of fraud and bribery this year. Rezko, was named ‘Entrepreneur of the Decade’ by the
Arab-American Business and Professional Association’.
About two years later, Obama entered Harvard Law School . Do you have any idea what tuition is for Harvard Law School ? Where did he get the money for Law School ? More student loans?
After Law school, he went back to Chicago . Rezko offered him a job, which he turned down. But, he did take a job with Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland. And guess what? They represented ‘Rezar’ which is Rezko’s firm. Rezko was one of Obama’s first major financial contributors when he ran for office in Chicago . In 2003, Rezko threw an early fundraiser for Obama which Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendelland claims was instrumental in providing Obama with ‘seed money’ for his U.S. Senate race.
In 2005, Obama purchased a new home in Kenwoood District of Chicago for $1.65 million (less than asking price). With ALL those Student Loans – Where did he get the money for the property? On the same day Rezko’s wife, Rita, purchased the adjoining empty lot for full price. The London Times reported that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born billionaire loaned Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before Obama’s new home was purchased. Obama met Nadhmi Auchi many times with Rezko.
Now, we have Obama running for President. Valerie Jarrett was Michele Obama’s boss. She is now Obama’s chief advisor and he does not make any major decisions without talking to her first. Where was Jarrett born? Ready for this? Shiraz , Iran ! Do we see a pattern here? Or am I going crazy?
On May 10, 2008 The Times reported, Robert Malley advisor to Obama was ‘sacked’ after the press found out he was having regular contacts with ‘Hamas’, which controls Gaza and is connected with Iran . This past week, buried in the back part of the papers, Iraqi newspapers reported that during Obama’s visit to Iraq, he asked their leaders to do nothing about the war until after he is elected, and he will ‘Take care of things’.
Oh, and by the way, remember the college roommates that where born in Pakistan ? They are in charge of all those ‘small’ Internet campaign contribution for Obama. Where is that money coming from? The poor and middle class in this country? Or could it be from the Middle East ?
And the final bit of news. On September 7, 2008, The Washington Times posted a verbal slip that was made on ‘This Week’ with George Stephanapoulos. Obama on talking about his religion said, ‘My Muslim faith’. When questioned, ‘he make a mistake’. Some mistake!
All of the above information I got on line. If you would like to check it – Wikipedia, encyclopedia, Barack Obama; Tony Rezko; Valerie Jarrett: Daily Times – Obama visited Pakistan in 1981; The Washington Times – September 7, 2008; The Times May 10, 2008.
Now the BIG question – If I found out all this information on my own, why haven’t all of our ‘intelligent’ members of the press been reporting this?
A phrase that keeps ringing in my ear – ‘Beware of the enemy from within’!!!

Could add some “validity” – as now it seems like you are trying the old “two wrongs make a right” approach, and of course, that never adds up!

The Socialist Governor of Alaska should look at herself before she calls names. Alaskan citizens each receive approximately $3000 per year from the state (paid for by businesses). That makes Palin the biggest Socialist politician in the country. Her record speaks for itself.

HPBoston: It would be nice if occasionally you kept to posting things of relevance to the article instead of filling every single message board on this site with anti-Obama posts. If you are voting against Obama that is fine but I would prefer to see pro-McCain arguments rather anti-Obama sentiments. Otherwise I have to question your motives in voting Republican, as both McCain and Obama have pros and cons and I personally feel that McCain’s cons outweigh Obama’s.

They all have a few things in common:
1)They have uncontrollable hatred for Obama; 2)They must have a lot of free time on their hands; 3 Their conclusions are usually based on speculation and not facts; 4) No one reads their long post; and 5) Their sources are web sites that do not use sources from where they got their information.

The right-wing nutjobs who like this kind of billboard never would have voted for Obama anyway.
The decent Republicans and independents who have not yet made up their minds will be repelled by such displays of ignorant hatred — and vote for Obama.

On taxes, it seems that McCain is the only person who can claim that he cuts taxes on every individual, while Zero raises taxes on anyone/couple filing more than $110K gross income.
Why do you prefer for the government to tax more from most individuals (not the so-called top 5% that Zero has lied to you).
Maybe, for those of you making less, you got less tax cut in absolute dollar amount than the rich, but you still get a greater percentage of tax cut than the rich.
It just happens that 1% of $1 million ($10,000) is a lot more than 10% of $20K (2,000).
If Zero uses 1% of his Harvard smart to explain what profit margin and net profits are, you probably would have not so disappointed. But, it would have exposed his lies, wouldn’t it?

I have just spent the last few days watching people and the media attack a man named Joe for asking a question and receiving an answer that the libs want to run from. I guess it’s okay to question and attack hard-working people like Joe the plumber, who coincidently are the real people who make this country work, but we aren’t supposed to question and expose candidates like Dear Leader Chairman Obama. Libs can get away with far more disgraceful attacks, like the Sarah Palin is a See You Next Tuesday t-shirt, but look how upset you people get when a conservative presents facts about the dear leader. I don’t see anything written on the sign that isn’t true. Even on Meet the Press (September 7, 2008), Chairman Obama slipped and referred to his past association with Islam. I am beginning to think all libs do is whine when someone doesn’t agree with them. I know that has been my experience with some of my liberal friends. Get over it. Can’t someone practice their first amendment right in this country anymore without someone trying to shut them up? Seems to me the most dangerous issue in this election is the fact that everytime I turn around, someone is trying to shut an opposing view up.

I’m a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight…..
If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you’re ‘exotic, different.’
Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, a quintessential American story.
If your name is Barack you’re a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you’re a maverick.
Graduate from Harvard law School and you are unstable.
Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you’re well grounded.
If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, b ecome chairman of the state Senate’s Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the
Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran’s Affairs committees, you don’t have any real leadership experience.
If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000 people, then you’re qualified to become the country’s second highest ranking executive.
If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you’re not a real Christian.
If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you’re a Christian.
If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.
If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only with no other option in sex education in your state’s school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you’re very responsible.
If your wife is a Harvard graduate laywer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family’s values don’t represent America’s.
If your husband is nicknamed ‘First Dude’, with at least one DWI conviction and no college education, who didn’t register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.
OK, much clearer now.

John McCain has never asked for any

And Sarah Palin has requested more earmarks per capita than any Gov in the US AND more than Obama.

It’s his middle name. Blame his mother and father, not the guy who painted the sign. Why do you libs want to run from everything that has made up Obama’s life? His past and his middle name is part of who he is. Why don’t you show us his birth certificate to prove that his middle name isn’t Hussein. Oh, that’s right, you are running from that too.

Barack Hussein Obama is his name.
The turbin/head wrap. Barack dresses like this when he gets his foreign policy experience. Shall we google the photo?
Is Barack Hussein Obama going to do anything to LOWER the number of abortions?
Is Barack Hussein Obama going to outlaw gay marriage?
Is Barack Hussein Obama for lowering taxes or for “spreading the wealth”?
Is Barack Hussein Obama pro second amendment? What has he done in Illinois?
Yahtzee!!

I hope that people are able to see Obama for what he really is – a cheap Chicago thug.
He is shamelessly violating campaign finance laws to rake in record amounts of cash – in other words, he is laundering money.
He is fostering voter fraud through ACORN in an attempt to boost his chances of winning – in other words he is stealing from the American people.
He is intimidating opposition voters and supporters through the media and his local machine – in other words he is employing a protection racket where those that don’t pay the necessary tribute are “burned out”.
He is embellishing his record through a steady stream of lies and misinformation – in other words, he is employing a communist-like propaganda approach that silences the opposition.
Obama is, in and of himself, a one man criminal enterprise. Unbelievable.
My fear is what he will do if elected. Specifically what hapens when he faces his own “9/11″. If Obama stays true to form, he will seize upon such an event as a vehicle to wrest more control – the possible suspension of habeas corpus, the implementation of martial law, the suspension of Constitutional rights in the name of national security, and the suspension of elections. If you had asked me last year, I never would have even thought Obama was capable of such things. But this is not last year, and after witnessing a series of acts that are reminiscent of Stalinesque tactics, I certainly believe he indeed has the potential to become freedoms public enemy number one.
Biden’s speech yesterday about Obama “being tested” due to his inexperience was particularly troubling. He was asking for support even if it appeared that the acts of a President Obama were troubling. Huh?????

Well, if his middle name is being used to arrouse anti-arab sentiment, then it should not be used. If the only way a candidate can win is too “anger” people into the voting booth, then that just means they offer nothing to the nation.

Subject: a school teacher’s research by Sandra:
Thank you ( a million times) for your research. I’m a registered democrat and I have some feelings that is pulling me back to vote for him. I just don’t trust him. Look at our US elections, we never had “fight the smears” website. All candidates came out as who they are what they are (bad and good of course because they are all humans). But only with him, things started to turn upside down. To me, Obama doesn’t have a “True Identity”. He’s lost his identity all his life.

Will our enimies take advantage on Obama’s skin color? Please read below:
Libya Col Muammar Gaddafi referred to Obama as “our Kenyan brother”, Col Gaddafi also said Mr Obama might suffer from an inferiority complex because of his African origins. “We fear that Obama will feel that, because he is black with an inferiority complex, this will make him behave worse than the whites,” Gadhafi told a rally at a former U.S. military base on the outskirts of the Libyan capital Tripoli.
“This will be a tragedy,” Gadhafi said. “We tell him to be proud of himself as a black and feel that all Africa is behind him because if he sticks to this inferiority complex he will have a worse foreign policy than the whites had in the past.”
He was speaking before thousands of cheering supporters at a ceremony to celebrate the 38th anniversary of the departure of U.S. troops from Libya.

I don’t know why African-American are so crazy about him. Obama’s father was Kenya African, who didn’t suffer the same the segregation and discrimination that we, African American in the US had suffered. His father wasn’t even in the civil rights movements. Most African -American like myself belive that he came this high because he had a White mother. He’s in love with him so much, that was why he wrote two books in his first term senate. What are his experince? He spent most of his senate years writing his books, book signing tours and campaign. He wants to be popular and gets attention, but I don’t think he’s qualified to be the President. I know his best intention for this country but I doubt he loves this country as much as McCain does.

Oh. Jake has also not pointed out that Biden or Obama have not “faced the media” in more than a month. Although, he mocked Palin for this serious offense for days on end.
Nor has Jake seen fit to publish the hit piece that the NY Times did on Cindy McCain over the weekend. Including the fact that their “reporter” used a Facebook posting to try to ferret out information from a teenage friend of the McCain’s youngest daughter as a source for her “story”. The NY Times has now become lower than the National Enquirer….but that’s not Newsworthy enough for Jake Tapper.
Oh…and then theres the little matter of shots being fired at the McCain bus.

How does it feel to see your Great White Hope in McCain be handily reduced to Bozo the Clown in only under a year?

I admired McCain when he said “all the line of McCains have served this country during war and peace”. He deserves the oval office than Obama, whose father didn’t even serve this country and didn’t even pay tax for this country. Instead took all the best of this country (education at University of Hawaii and Harvard and two white American women). He dumped them like trash without child support, that’s why Obama’s mother had to depend of food stamps. I personally like Obama, who is smart, polish and Harvard graduate. But those facts won’t make a good president. George Bush went to Harvard as well and how did it turn out today? Bill Clinton went to Yale and he was the only President ever to have sex with an intern in the White House. Obama is more show off person than real person. Do we really know him well? To me, he’s a man without an Identity. Nobody really (truly) know him even his campaign people.

The Honorable Junior Senator from Illinois, who earmarked a cool $1 mil for his wife’s employer who raised her salary by 150% up on his election to the Senate, has a middle name without the double quotation marks.
Therefore, technically, it is wrong. The junior Senator’s name is a Barrack Hussein 0bama, not a Barrack “Hussein” 0bama.

No offense to the presumed Republican that said this sign is “almost like what they are doing to Palin”. How pray tell is this anything like the critcism that she has received? It is one thing to criticize a candidates policies, judgement and words. All of which are fair game and all of which have place Palin in the crosshairs of both liberal and conservative pundits alike. But distorting a candidates’ origins with racist propaganda and distorting their policies with outright lies seems to be common place among many of McCain’s supporters. Palin’s treatment has been respectful in comparison.

I use fact check which is an unbiased as any place can be,Lets see obama has said he does not believe in same sex marriages but does believe incivil unions so these people can be families and support each other He does howeve say it should be up to the states to decide.On abortion he wants more education and other ways to prevent pregancy in the first place which would or could mean less and less abortions.About gun control their should be some kind of control or the thugs will be the ones owning the guns.Look at the school shootings,the shootings in malls .With the right kind of gun controll these may have been prevented. No one wants to take guns away from hunters or people that want them for protection.It is the criminal and unstable people tha should not have access to guns.I don’t think anyone can disagree with that.Go to fact check on taxes Obama plan helps you much more than Mccains plan does untill you reach the 250,000 mark .Who ever made the sign did not know what they were talking about and some of you are drinking from the cup of hate

I see the terror these double digit IQed folks have at an Obama presidency and wonder if it is his policies they fear or something else. Oh yes, I remember now.

The person who put up that sign should be ashamed of themselves not only at the distortions of Obama’s stands, but the implicit insinuation that Muslims or Middle-Easterns cannot be trusted.
Look at the emphasis on his middle name, the picture of him wearing a turban Middle-Eastern men wear. This is a great insult towards all Muslim and Arab-Americans.
Powell said it all on MTP. Is it wrong to be a Muslim in America? He then recounted the story of a Muslim-American soldier who died serving in Iraq, and I saw the photo of his mother at his tombstone, it made me tear up. Muslim-Americans have served America courageously, and do not deserve this.

Why on earth will right thinking People want to stay Republican?
I have asked myself a couple of times but I don’t seem to be getting answers.
May be the GOPers on this thread will be willing to tell me why they are still in a Party that spread so much hate and lies?
No Country can progress without love. If there is so much hatred from a group of People such as this, how can we justify the motto “In God we trust”
Isn’t God about Love? Didn’t the Bible say Love is the most important of the Commandments?
Why do we have so many Evangelicals in the Republican Party who are pro-life but who so willingly kill with their thoughts and words?
Why is there so much hatred from this group to a fellow Christian, who may, If GOD ordains it, be the President-elect of the United States of America in a few days?
Has God’s name become just a tool to garner votes now? Is he no longer in our hearts?
We can disagree without being disagreeable.
Whatever the outcome of the Election is, America will remain one and indivisible.
But let us not guile ourselves, we can’t continue with so much hatred in our hearts and expect prosperity to abound.
I wonder how one can have so much love for Dogs, Cats and other Pets and yet have so much hatred for a fellow Human being.
What hypocrisy!!!!
I reckon they must be worshipping another God than the one we read about in the BIBLE.
