I'm not a Ron Paul supporter, but he is dead on with this.

The best minds are not in government. If any were, business would hire them away.

among a good many people are waking up to this fact. Do your homework and find out what's really going on. The mainstream media has the country blinded to all but Dem and Rep, and the debates should include ALL parties putting forth a candidate. There are two other big political parties: Constitution, and Libertarian, why are they not allowed to debate?

Just a thought. Check out a vid called Zeitgeist @ Google, also America: Freedom to Fascism. They will wake you up to the real.

Hey aztec1... fill in the blank name below... who are voters referring to? (Hint: the guy currently lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.)

"Perhaps even more importantly, only 11 percent of all voters polled -- and only 9 percent of Republicans -- feel that proof of cocaine use in his 20s should disqualify ____________ from serving as president. A resounding 84 percent of voters and 87 percent of Republican voters felt just the opposite -- that they did not feel proof of cocaine use in his 20s should disqualify _____________."

... of just how far we have fallen. If these numbers are true. But I never believe anything written or said until I know it already to be true, or I research it to validate it's truth.

uncurious george admittedly used cocaine

Bush has a problem with cocaine too. So, Obama wont be the first. Besides, why lie to your kids about drugs? Be honest with them, don't follow the DARE lie program. It only make kids disbelieve the legit stuff when they find out a big portion of the program was lie.

Marijuana is much less an evil drug than alcohol. I know that's not what the government said... but its true. World would be a lot better place if you could turn the alcoholics into pot heads. Their wives, their kids, their livers, other drivers, etc etc etc would be much better off.

Hobbs gives to us the true examples of what being a Democrat represents, based upon their established supported policies at every government level, and all you do is attack him with mindless personal attacks. You just can't battle the facts can you. Do some real work, some due-diligence, and go at each one of the statements listed above.

Man... what do I have to do to inspire the Left to become smarter... or are they all just too lazy to learn the facts of their own chosen party.

Delta is ready when you are. Drop us a note every now and then.

I like the new avatar. Perhaps, with your last post it should be a picture of the US with a gun to its head.

“Every time you vote Democrat God kills a kitten.”

I don't condone racial bigotry or prejudice, but which presidential candidate wrote in his book "White people's greed runs a world in need"? Which presidential candidate brought up color and ethnicity by stating that he "...doesn't look like any of those other fellas on the dollar bill"? Which presidential candidate said that we would be scared of his first, middle and last name? Which presidential candidate attended, was married in, and was backed by a church with so much animosity for white people? How about the recent attacks on civilians homes, cars and private property of those sporting a McCain/Palin yard sign or bumpersticker. I don't recall Senator McCain ever bringing it up prior to Senator Obama saying these things. Nor, has Govenor Palin. Before you point a finger, you should realize that you have three pointing back at you.

The bottom line? It is the hate filled extremists, such as ACORN, Skin Heads and other "race baiters" that make both parties look bad. Most of us just want this darn thing to be over with.

Keep this in mind. Ignorance can be fixed...stupidity is forever.

“Every time you vote Democrat God kills a kitten.”

The people who are ignorant and racist are not in the majority. Unless you count the black people voting for Obama just because he is black....

Unless you count the black people voting for Obama just because he is black....

Aren't many of those! They're coming out to vote for CHANGE! . .and this young Harvard grad who is: tops in his graduating class, raised by middle class parents, raising two daughters after achieving the American dream - looks like he will surround himself with persons who will help us recapture the respect of the world, restore our economy, and make us all proud to be Americans. It's not only 'blacks' that are voting for this young American. After hearing the programs offered by both candidates - the American public is turning out in droves to vote their choice. The color of choice this year is GREEN. Check the polls today.

You are correct about one thing. The color of choice is GREEN. The GREEN in my pocket that Chairman MaO-Bama wants to redistribute to someone Barry has decided deserves it more. More than the person who earned it.

By the way, I personally am already proud as hell to be an American. If you happen to know anyone who isn't, give them the suggestion JeffC loves to throw out. Delta is ready when you are....to take them to the country they will be proud of. And good riddance....

The wonderful aspect of being an American is having the freedom to disagree with a fellow American. Don't you agree? No one needs to leave meanoldconservatives. There's room here for all of us - with all of our different opinions AND colors. (We all NEED green!)

Actually, I do agree with you. We are free to disagree with each other. My comments did not address differences of color and/or opinions. I was addressing the ones who are currently "not proud to be Americans".

I believe you put it this way: ...looks like he will surround himself with persons who will help us recapture the respect of the world, restore our economy, and make us all proud to be Americans.

My point was, if someone's not proud to be an American now....maybe somewhere else will give them that pride we all need in our country.

Perhaps you will have the opportunity to lecture folks on being proud of their country in a week and a half after we, as a country, elect someone they have called:
Terrorist
Marxist
Racist
Socialist
Obumbles
Barry
"liberal douche bag"

You think your allies will be all tingly and swelling with pride, M O C?
Can you possibly see why some of us might not be too proud of rendition, torturing, warrant less wiretapping, and gitmo imprisonment without due process? I love this country, but sometimes I am disappointed in her actions, and desire a change of course.

cheers

In his American high school yearbook. How can that be wrong?

So, he called himself "Barry" in the 1970s, so you religiously refer to Senator Obama as such now... makes sense to some, I guess. Now about the six names you ignored........

It wasn't really a lecture, it was an exchange of ideas. Call it what you will though, matters not to me.

If you think "my allies" are the only ones calling the opposing parties' candidates names, you are showing your true intelligence. It has been a tough campaign on both sides. Your allies have said despicable things about McCain and Palin and you know it. Is that somehow different???

I know one thing. If Barry wins next week, I'll still be proud to be an American. I won't be tingly over his policies, but I'll be swelled with pride at being an American. Wonder why that "lecture" hit you so hard?????

Oh, I just saw your apology to Dawn69. Is this you going all "Marquess of Queensberry" on me????? Really scary stuff....

By the way, did you ever bother to check with Cal on me being your previous nemesis? I didn't think so. It's easier to think you're right.

It's easier for you to "pivot" to "I'm not othersidetrax", your signature "liberal douche bag" comments not withstanding, than address how a group of people who call a presidential candidate a "terrorist," "Marxist," "Racist," and "communist" will be all "swelled with pride" at being Americans. After all, like it or don't MOC, your political side of the aisle has, right up to the top of the ticket, questioned the very patriotism of Americans you disagree with. That's why proud Congresswoman Bachmann has done the mea culpa 180, MOC. Whether you care to admit this or not, the republicans among us, right up to the top of the ticket, have earned the nastiness prize in attitude and action this presidential election; right down to the news anchor asking Joe Biden how Barack is not a Marxist. It's as clear as the noses on our faces MOC. Heck, you guys have become so nasty that 40 more people added themselves to the unemployment line rather than read an obscenely false McCain attack add in Indiana.
Call center workers walk off the job in disgust

Let's bring it to a much more personal level, MOC. Me and you; you and I. Let's represent our sides of this argument. You have, on multiple occasions, called us "liberal douche bags." Your words MOC. What is the nastiest thing I have called you MOC? Is there a comparison? I'll help you out with some other conservative* bloggers and I; you will find "bitter," "unintelligent" and the like, and you will also see "male prostitute" accurately assigned to the TV character "Fred Garvin." I haven't found the "liberal douchebag" character though.

And who are the assassination plots coming from? How about the fake "an Obama guy assaulted me and carved a backwards B in my face" stories? you guys have whipped your impressionable base into a frenzy, and now they'll do anything to keep a "Marxist" "terrorist" "communist" from being the president of The USA.

So, again, I ask what you did not answer: How are people who think Barack Obama is either a "Terrorist," "Marxist," or "Communist" going to be proud of their country if he is their president. I think that's an honest question.

Oh, and if you say you aren't otherside, I take you at your word, but I have been lied to by you conservativy bloggers before. Let's take that guy who's "real name" is Fred Garvin LOL! But I don't run to Cal. He gots bigger fish to saute.

That "typical liberal douche bag" thing really hurt your little feelings, didn't it? Too bad. Let's go back and see how that all went down, shall we? Or would you care? Nah, the facts don't really interest you. But, others may care.....Sniffer ended one of his diatribes to me by calling me a "typical conservative wuss". Now, I know you can either choose to ignore being called a name or counter back. I chose to take what he called me, change the party, and then use a different name. It may not have been what everyone would do, but if you call me a name on here, you get called one back. Stick to the argument, I try to do the same. So you see diva, Sniffer called me a name first. Where is your indignation towards him? By the way, good luck finding me using the term more than once. I don't remember doing it again. Again, facts elude you though. Enough on that silly subject.

You awarding the right the "nastiness prize" is shocking. Of course you see it that way through your partisan eyes. I see things differently through mine. By the way, what do you get for winning the "nastiness prize"????

Now to your "burning question".....you can be proud of your country, but not proud of the sitting president. I felt that way when Slick Willie was playing "hide the cigar" in the Oval Office. Your side is there now with "W". In case you don't realize it, this country and the sitting president are connected, yet separate. I have respect for the office, but maybe not the sitting president at any one time. That doesn't change the pride I have for my country.

Finally, I don't want to take things to a "much more personal level" with you diva. You are angry at me. You don't like me. The feelings are mutual. I could care less what conservatives have lied to you before. I have as much responsibilty for that as I do the assasination plot kooks you try to tie to me and my side. I told you the facts about "othersidetrax" and my stance is the same. Believe it or not, I could care less....

Cheers

The radical right has a long history of using hate speech to instill fear in their crazy followers....sickening...not much has changed:

LEST WE FORGET!

“Unless you count the black people voting for Obama just because he is black....”

Now I was pretty sure I knew what racist meant but looked it up anyway and here's what Webster's had:

racist - a person with a prejudiced belief that one race is superior to others .

So are we adding to the definition now to mean voting to support a member of your own ethnic group is racist? Were all those Catholics who voted for Kennedy racists? How about the Irish who vote for him. Racist Jews who supported Joe Lieberman? Racists Hispanics supporting Gov. Richardson?

Oh, I get it; it only applies to blacks supporting Obama!

Funny thing about my online dictionary though, it referenced another closely associated word:

bigot - a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from his own.

you hit the nail on the head

Why has this election been made into a race issue then? Who started that? Why have so many from your side hinted and even directly stated that those who oppose Barry are racist because they just can't vote for a black man? Why didn't they say those voters just want to "support a member of their own ethnic group" as you put it? To quote you again...."Oh, I get it; it only applies to blacks supporting Obama!".

Your side put the racist tag out there for this election. My point was and is....black people who vote for Barry because he is black are no less racist than white people who vote for McCain because he is white. It goes both ways.

are not the liberal buppy.... It's been the conservative talkers who said Obama was only winning because he was getting 95 % of the black vote and would not win enough votes to beat Hillary in the states that did not have large populations.

I voted for Obama and it has to do with the big picture, the future and need to adress issues the rest of the world has dealt with already
wuality of life issues for ALL Americans.

So we whites voting for Obama are we traitors to our race ?
What about blacks sharing conservative values and voting for McCain ?

Each is entitled to an opinion and neither is right or wrong.

Won't wash. There is a difference between supporting someone who is black because you yourself might be black and not supporting someone who is black because you think blacks are an inferior race. That's why I gave you the definition of "racist".

You are correct saying, "My point was and is....black people who vote for Barry because he is black are no less racist than white people who vote for McCain because he is white." If that is the reason for their vote then you are right because the argument is a non sequitur in that neither are racist. My point was that you misused the word to imply that blacks who might vote for Obama purely out of racial pride are racists, which they are not. A transparent ploy to assign the negative connotations of the word to a situation in which it does not apply in order to justify the actions of racist, i.e. "It's OK if we're racists because they're racists too."

Having argued with your semantics, let me assure you that I am not implying that you are a racist. I firmly believe that you have made it clear that your argument is with his liberalism and you would oppose him even if he was the snowiest of white or any other color.

Someone who votes because of race is moronic, just as as one who votes based solely on party affiliation. It's sometimes tough to be an idealist when it comes to candidates, but it is incumbent on you as an American to make the tough choice and vote based upon character, whatever the party affiliation.

"Someone who votes because of race is moronic..."

I believe the same can be said for someone who votes based on gender. It has become apparent that the Rovian political scheme of tapping Palin as VP, has backfired, and those Hillary supporters they were banking on have turned a cold female shoulder to the Repub shenanigan's.

Women don't vote for other women just because the candidate is another woman. Live and learn, Karl.

JeffC, here is the deal. Main Stream was spouting off with these comments aimed at Republicans in general:

Those who are opposed to a presidential candidate because of their own ignorance, racism and/or pure hate, is the worst attribute of all. I mourn for our country if people like this, in the linked videos below, are actually in the majority.

I'm glad these folks are on your team, Richard. The Republican party has become an embarrassment and even Reagan would be mortified!

I replied back:

Don't worry Stream.....The people who are ignorant and racist are not in the majority. Unless you count the black people voting for Obama just because he is black....

I was never intending to address the "racists" who believe in superiority of either race. That is a whole different group (definition one). I was trying to say that ANYONE who votes for their candidate simply because the race of the candidate is the same as that voter is exhibiting racism. My definition of racism there was the racial prejudice towards one race or the other (definition two). If that prejudice towards one race causes you to vote against them....rather than using political principles and ideas as the litmus test.

It disappoints me that you think I would try a "transparent ploy". HA!!

I meant my "transparent ploy" comments to be applied generically to those who do use the racists equivalencies argument.

But rereading my comments that it is not what I wrote.

Please accept my apology.

Apology accepted. I look forward to future discussions!

The Merriam Webster online version gives the meaning of RACISM as

Main Entry: rac·ism
Pronunciation: \ˈrā-ˌsi-zəm also -ˌshi-\
Function: noun
Date: 1933
1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
2 : racial prejudice or discrimination

The definition here

For the record; I acknowledge 100% this was a cut and paste from the Merriam-Webster website (I don't want sniffles getting upset with me).

So, based on number 2, you don't have to think one race is superior to another, only to discriminate based on something. And if this something is race, then there is racism and the person exhibiting racism is a racist.

I just wanted to toss my 2 cents into the mix.

Those definitions from Webster do clarify the point. The last time I looked, they applied to all 'humans' - not just 'blacks'. Oops - the same for bigot. Thanks for bringing that to our attention!

I hate to even mention this because if they get the idea it will probably happen but these people are missing out on a great collaborative deal investigating the birth certificate.

Michele Bachmann could do the investigation, Ashley Todd could supply the evidence, Andy Martin could (re)file the lawsuits, Jerome Corsi could write the definitive book, Regent Book could publish it and Hannity, Rush, Ingram, Drudge and Savage could swear it was true and do the publicity.

We're probably talking millions of wingnut dollars here.

Not a fan of McCain but black or white Obama supports socialist policies. I could not vote for him based on what he represents. If Alan Keyes or Herman Cain were running I would vote for them because I believe in their conservative ideals. Obama represents the liberal elite who do not relate to the average voter. They think anyone who makes more than $60k should help the downtrodden at gun point.

Have you read Obama's economic plan? Lower taxes for those making LESS THAN $250,000 a year. Stop Bush tax cuts for those who make MORE THAN $250,000. There are conservative ideals that I also embrace - the current Republican leaders have not practiced these ideals. Honestly, no matter who wins, we the American public must keep a closer eye on our elected officials and their policies towards CEO'S. The trickle down policy just 'ran out'.

Just for the record.....rmoc and MOC (meanoldconservatives) aren't the same person. I might even be afraid to find out what the "r" portion stands for if the "moc" is the same.....

Our sitting Republican President(Bush) is the Socialist. He was the one that wanted and got the bailout plan...How much more socialist/conservative can you get?

They used to be social conservatives, now they're conservative socialists.

Yes sir re I like that. conservative socialists, that just has a good sound to it...

Scared all these people yesterday.

Terrified by Carville

Rush reacting to Colin Powell's endorsement of Obama:

"Secretary Powell says his endorsement is not about race," Limbaugh wrote in an e-mail. "OK, fine. I am now researching his past endorsements to see if I can find all the inexperienced, very liberal, white candidates he has endorsed. I'll let you know what I come up with."

As for Powell's statement of concern this morning about the sort of Supreme Court justices a President McCain might appoint, Limbaugh wrote: "I was also unaware of his dislike for John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Anthony Kennedy and Antonin Scalia. I guess he also regrets Reagan and Bush making him a four-star [general] and secretary of state and appointing his son to head the FCC. Yes, let's hear it for transformational figures."

Go Rush! LOL!

AK is about to lose a long time senator due to the disease of so many in power. Palin being selected as the VP nominee has not only been thrust into the national spotlight, she has increased her own stock back home in the tundra (if it could get any higher). If McCain wins (and my wallet certainly hopes that he does), she is in the second chair. If he loses, Palin will be the next senator from the great State of Alaska and her national stock increases. Win-Win for the Gov. By the way, why is is that the Dems keep saying that they are for the middle class, but only lawyers who attend Ivy League schools are 'qualified' to lead, regardless of real world experience?

That Palin will be the face of the Republican Party!

"By the way, why is is that the Dems keep saying that they are for the middle class, but only lawyers who attend Ivy League schools are 'qualified' to lead, regardless of real world experience?"

First, you just made that up. Find me any Dem. anywhere that said anything remotely like that. Second, you're saying that Obama wasn't middle class when he was a student at Harvard?

You said it in your editorial published on line in American Thinker. I liked the editorial. It did not even intimate you were a Republican,heavens forbid !!You can deny it all you want and call me a liar, but the inside info in your editorial, i.e. "counting the days"could only come from a person with a close association with Annapolis,like you and like me. There is not an iota of info about "the days" in the U.S. Naval Academy info you posted.I hate to cut and paste the editorial, but I do not know how to do the 'hit the link" thing.

I have actually written a couple of letters to American Thinker! Since they are just part of the kook wing of the R. Party they cannot handle dissent and so of course they never published them. Instead of writing them another about Rumsfeld, I sent them an e-mail offering to (why bother if they're not going to use it, right?). They actually responded!!! They didn't think my correspondence would be appropriate for them. Alas. But they were probably right, it would be difficult for them if facts were allowed to intrude into the echo chamber.

You can usually tell about these types of publications. They don't allow blogging or comments. Kinda like WorldNetDaily. In fact, exactly like WorldNetDaily. Great sources if you only talk to people who don't know any better.

does allow comments and has blogs and published your editorial because it was comnplimentary of McCain and his leadership education at Annapolis.You may fool some bloggers, but you do not fool me.

They do allow comments now. Interesting. Thanks for the info.

BTW: I think I read that editorial comparing McCain and Obama's education. Seems like I remember it said it would compare McCain at Annapolis to Obama at Columbia for two years (not mentioning his time at Harvard). Seems like I also remember that it ended up with nothing in it about Obama at Columbia.

In any event, I admire McCain's graduating at Annapolis notwithstanding his recent demonstration of leadership skills when he rushed back to Washington to lead almost 30% of the Republicans in Congress to support his Party's President's bailout bill.

He's a good man. I wish he had beat Bush in 2000. It would have saved the whole world a lot of heartache.

Rush, Sean, Laura, Mike S, Mike G, Herman C, Greta, O'Reilly, Mike M, Bill B,etc. have the higher ratings pulling in more listeners, I don't think there is any crumbling or disintergrating of their followers. Sarah Palin has generated a powerful buzzzzzzzz!

However, they are extremists who are only preaching to the choir and are steadily narrowing the Republican base. That's like saying McGovern voters would continue to support the Democrats. Devastatingly correct.

As for Palin's buzzzzzzz, again only to the shrinking base. Almost 66% of Americans now recognize that she is totally not qualified. Re-read my post, I only quoted conservative Republicans.

Yep, I remember when the Democratic party lost the wheel off of their wagon in '68. Some thought it was their demise as well. Heck, I betcha that our very own "Bonker$" probably remembers when some in the 30's thought that the Republicans were finished.
-------------------------------------------
Caution - The Surgeon General has determined that constant blogging is an addiction that can cause a sedentary life style.

I'm voting for McCain, is he republican?

No, if I remember correctly, in the 30s we simply thought maybe we wouldn't get another thoughtless person to follow so many!

Republicans used to be logical and honorable.

The Key Words bonkers are USED TO BE. Logical and honorable that is until Rove, neocons, Rush, Hannity, O'Really, Coulter and their ilk...brought hate and divisiveness into the equation. The moderate Republicans are a fine group, but like I said before many times, they have been invaded by these Hitlerish, scary people that just spew hate. My hope is one day the moderates will rise up again and see these vermin as they actually are.

Could you only imagine the outcry and fallout that if McCain and his family would have been a member of a church for 20 years that weekly preached absolute HATRED for Black Men and America out loud for everyone to hear. I'm wondering if the African American population would have anything to say about that now?? I'm wondering if the bleeding heart Liberals in this country would have anything to say about that now?? I'll tell you that for a FACT his politcal career would have been over long ago but not only by the liberals in this country but ALSO by the conservatives in this country. You see O'Riely, Hannity, Rush, Coulter etc. would not stand for such a racist to run on the Republican ticket as well!! Only White bleeding heart Liberals and African Americans would except such behavior from a candidate for the office of President of the United States of America!!! You see I'm wondering if half the African American population even knows or cares what Obama is running on?? People if you are ONLY voting on the color of skin you are a RACIST!! It works both ways!! Racist is a term that alot of the African American popuation throws around on a regular basis!! I'm wondering who of the African American population have always voted Republican and NOW are voting Socialist?? I'm wondering how many times Powell has voted Socialist?? Powell a Socialist?? WHAT??? GO FIGURE!!!

Why do you think they belong to a secessionist group? Because they want to pal around with domestic terrorists?

I have no problem with Powell!! As a matter of fact I have always had nothing but respect for the man and still do. I always felt that he did a great job of keeping Bush straight. If he were running for President I would vote for him in a minute but he is not!! I am very surprised that he is supporting Obama but that is his choice!! Obama is what he is and he knows what he is!! He shouldn't be ashamed of what his ideals are and have been. I'm not ashamed of mine!! Are you ashamed of yours?? Obama saying he didn't know how The Rev Wright felt about the white race and America is a blatant lie and he must be ashamed of who he was and is!!!

To use a phrase from B.O. (remember, "typical white woman....or grandmother??). I never was too convinced that he was a conservative. Just a republican in name only. Just another black that is so entralled with the thought of history being made, just someone that thinks that having the first black to hold our highest office is more important than having someone that will truly lead this country.Powell is nothing more than a cheap sell-out.

Maybe you need to re-read your own post.

Thats what this is all about not again. An open forum to speak your feelings. As a matter of fact it's long over due. This country will never come together until people are able to speak openly about their feeling without fear of offending others. And not again maybe you need to listen to your own advise!!!

I voted last week, and it IS nice to have it done. I wish the whole thing were over tomorrow. Unfortunately, it won't stop the hateful blogging...that appears to be endemic to the Citizen.

winby1, it would be much more efficient for all of the good ol' conservatives to just admit that Barack Obama is just too black to vote for, and save yourselves a lot of typing.

"I can't wait until tomorrow, because I get more lovable every day."

Actually Barry isn't black enough, he is half white. Even though he has been able to use the color of his skin to con people into voting for him based on race. YOU are the one who started the discussion on race. USArmy and Meanold and wnby started by talking about the issues.

Is pulling the race card all you dems have?

Next month we're going to have about 120 million votes!

Me, I, she, her, him. he, it, them those, that, which who!

Just read the words of some of our highschoolers and their parents!

This little posting sure stirred things up, just goes to show that you never can tell which one will "get it going". Well, if the shoes fit, put the wig on too. My comment was directed to, and I quote myself here, "good ol' conservatives". I also find the inquiries about my "color" amusing. I am not one to keep people in suspense unnecessarily: carbonunit52 is a pale nigga, a scarred up, sun-baked mule, not pretty, and too old to die young.

"I can't wait until tomorrow, because I get more lovable every day."

So you have the best of both worlds then? You get to keep it real and ease your guilty white demons. Good for you. Barry will be grateful and your taxes will go down. I mean he told us so, right????

Good thing a conservative didn't use that term you did. There would be a firestorm up in herr.....

You got us....we're busted. Since you figured out we're all voting strictly by race, you can feel free to tell me what you libs are up to. You have to be one of these two:

1) a good ol' black person simply voting for Chairman MaO-Bama because finally a candidate ain't white and you gotta keep it real

or

2) a good ol' white liberal suffering from massive amounts of white guilt thinking this vote might cleanse your soul of all past wrongs of the white race

I mean since you exposed us for what we really are, you can come clean too. I promise I won't tell anyone which one you are. But, if you're too afraid to answer truthfully, I understand. We can't help what we are, can we?? Everyone can talk freely about this now, thanks to you.....

We don't give a hoot about his color just his EXTREME LIBERAL views. We see the man in whole. We recognize that a man's character is shaped by the people he has surrounded himself with ALL HIS ADULT LIFE. It matters to us. You can blog your ignorant crap all you want, Carbonunit52, but that is all it is...crap!

Your comments tonight are even more vicious and hateful than is usual for you. I wish that you could allow a little levity and cheerfulness into your style.

"I can't wait until tomorrow, because I get more lovable every day."

My comments were to make a point about B.O. using "typical white woman" to label his grandmother, the woman that gave him nothing but love and care in his younger days. Can you explain to me why my comments are "vicious" and "hateful" but his are not? What might be considered hateful is for you to decide that we, as conservatives, are not voting for B.O. because we disagree with his socialistic views, but are doing so because he is "too black" for us. You are the vicious and ugly one.

I am taking out "Army" because you defile it. First you state that your dislike of Obama has nothing to do with race, and moments later you state of Colin Powell, a highly respected and decorated Army veteran, "Just another black ...." Yeah, obviously you aren't focused on race. Did you watch what Powell had to say? He used reasoned, logical thinking in coming to his conclusions. It has nothing to do with race. He is afraid of the direction that fascists like you are taking the Republican party.

Isn't it obvious that a retired US Army General, former Secretary of State, National Security Adviser and Chairman of the Joints Chiefs of Staff must have endorsed Obama because he's black? For what other reason could he possibly have a different opinion than brat's who is surely more informed about such issues?

I am not focused on race but Powell sure as heck is, if you just look back abit. He stated earlier in the campaign how the election of an african-American would be "electrifying". He is made a four-star general and Secretary of State by Republicans, not to mention having John McCain go to bat for his son to be appointed to the FCC by Clinton. He has acknowledged being a Republican and to my knowledge never made a statement against the appointments to the Supreme Court that have been done by Bush. But, NOW, states that that is the "reason" for his adulation..I mean, endorsement of B.O. He just can't stomach another appointment, like the completely qualified Alito and Roberts. The point is, Powell would NEVER be endorsing B.O. if B.O. was white. And, the reason I used the "typical black man" comment was to see how many of you hypocritical libs would go balistic on me but have never cared to mention that B.O. used it first. He used it to describe the woman that loved and cared for him as he grew up. "Typical white woman"...what a nice thing to say, huh?

I'm an Independant and what I said is the truth!! You can paint any picture you want on it Obama was involved with a Racist and he knows that!! His sermons are full of hate and rage and you can turn your head to that if you choose. I don't beleive you would give the same benifit of the doupt to a KKK member. I wouldn't!! I cannot!! I cannot tolerate an ignorant white racist and I cannot tolerate an ignorant black racist. The Rev Wright is an IGNORANT black racist!! Obama was involved with him and said he loved him. You can turn your head if you want to but if your white he hates you just like he hates me!!

Here's hoping the R's don't wander in the wilderness as long as the D's did then.

Really now?
