Obama ad by John Mellencamp running in Indiana

[nosugar151]

It sound like Johnny got fed a bunch of lies too....poor guy...

[ace19901227]

So Mr. Mellencamp, how's that hope and change going for America? 2012 - Vote him out!

[TheGiantRobot]

Wow, look at all these disappointed "conservatives."

You didn't know that John has always been for the little guy? Have you even listened to a single one of his songs? John likes small towns over big cities, human beings over corporations, freedom over authority. You suck ups to authority don't even know what a conservative is - you are corporate neocons. John is a humanist.

[TheGiantRobot]

Did Obama ever end those tax breaks? Just when I was giving up hope, I finally heard something was in the works. That was a while ago, though.

[jeteryank26]

How's that change working for you now, John???

[jeteryank26]

How's that change a working now, John???

[catbin]

how's that hope and change thing working out for you there jonny boy .... you glad we're communist now .... what an ass - shut up and sing

[alwrig]

So when is Johnny Cougar going to appear on Larry King to discuss government policy like Sean Penn does? All these entertainment types obviously know what's best for the rest of us stupid Americans.

[megajcfreak71]

I had admired John Mellencamp until I saw this video clip. I am very disapointed in your choice of presidential candidate John. I hope you read these blogs/comments. I had figured you as a devout conservative. I will not be supporting your music any longer. I have been a fan for more than 30 years.

[indiejane]

you didn't know he was a libera, megajcfreak71? He's been outspoken about his political beliefs for a long time. And rightly so.

John McCain lost. And rightly so. This country spoke. And people will finally know that jesus does NOT equal Republican. Republicans belittle the poor and the needy - and Indiana is certainly the needy these days. So people finally got their minds straight and voted the CORRECT way. Which was for Obama.

[mellenhrad]

bro wats wrong with you? john in an incredible artist and OBAMA ALLL THE WAYYY LOL UR AN IDIOT megajcfreak71 Y dont u go watch the news asshole! mellencamp is a rock god!

[mellenhrad]

i live in alberta

[OneCounterfeitSoul]

To megajcfreak71: you're boycotting an artist just because they hold different political views than your own? How immature of you. Tom Selleck is a Republican, but I still think he's a great actor, and will continue to watch him in the roles he plays. Alice Cooper is a Republican, but I still like his music. What the hell is the matter with you?

[foppa123]

liberal idiot, John M. is

[mellenhrad]

hey GrizzlyManC83 go fuck yourself.. AND god bless MELLENCAMP and GOD bless OBAMA

p.s good job john keep on rockin

[GrizzlyManC83]

well john mellencamp i was a big fan of yours, untill i found out you was a obama supporter, you freakin suck john, you can kiss mine and john mccain's ass. you on there tellin lies about bush and mccain, get a freakin life john mellencamp, bastard.

[daddymak8]

Hey, grizzlyman, have you been living in a cave? It's common knowledge that John Mellencamp is a supporter of the Democratic party, has been for decades. The Scarecrow album was an indictment of the Reagan administration and four years ago, he was part of the Vote for Change tour that supported John Kerry. Did you think that in 2008, he'd be supporting John McCain after he's spent the last twenty five years supporting Democrats?

[waypasthadenough]

Well I responded to the witch and my comments didn't post. Guess they've started 'moderating' these. So much for "Liberal" respect for 'freedom of speech.' They only respect speech that doesn't expose their evil.

[tazztt1]

John... We know this means nothing to you, once huge fans of yours (that contributed to YOUR fortune) we now know what a freakin' Liberal-ass idiot you really are. YOU were the one that portrayed 'Never sell out', but now YOU have(what'd they pay you?!). We're free to vote our conscience, good, vote yours. Using your Star status to promote YOUR political views is wrong AND pathetic. Congrats... You just cut your fan club in HALF. pffft

[waypasthadenough]

Used to admire him till two albums ago he dissed our most basic right. I had my suspicions before then.

don't miss my quotes page...

[waypasthadenough]

Mellencamp needs to stick to music. I wonder if he's smart enough to know that the demoncrats voted NAFTA thru congress and Klinton signed it after saying he wouldn't during his campaign.

That was all the 'political education' I needed.

Don't understand? Follow my links, read the quotes page first.

[MNorris149]

Well, I guess Clinton could have vetoed the bill but it would have went through anyway, it was a republican controlled house and senate you know. I mean, since you seem to think you know what you are talking about I would assume this is something you knew?

[waypasthadenough]

"In 1993, former president Bill Clinton signed the North American Free Trade Agreement using the mandate of Fast Track. Even though NAFTA faced huge opposition not only by Congress, but also by citizens in the U.S., Clinton was able to push NAFTA because he essentially did not have to answer to anyone. After NAFTA was signed by Clinton, Congress could only vote yes or no, instead of being able to make line-by-line changes to the agreement."

You're lying, but that's typical. I suggest google.

[waypasthadenough]

Oh sorry, the quote came from The Michigan Daily, Oct. 9, 2001 to help you in your quest for truth, which I'm willing to bet you don't give a damn about.

But you have it in your power to prove me wrong, start with my quotes page. It won't hurt, too much.

[MNorris149]

NAFTA was initially promoted by politicians in the United States and Canada supportive of free trade, led by Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, U.S. President George H. W. Bush, Mexican President Carlos Salinas de Gortari.

[MNorris149]

The agreement was pursued by business interests in all three countries and opposed by labor, environmental, and other business interests, in all three countries. An agreement in principle was reached in August 1992 and the agreement was signed by the chief negotiators of each country in October 1992. The heads of government of all three countries signed NAFTA in December 1992, subject to ratification by the legislatures of the three countries.

[MNorris149]

The supplemental agreements on labour and the environment were signed in September 1993. NAFTA and the supplemental agreement came into effect until January 1, 1994.

In the United States, NAFTA was able to secure passage after Bill Clinton made its passage a major legislative priority in 1993. Clinton's Trade Representative, Mickey Kantor, was a strong advocate of the treaty. Since the agreement had been signed by Bush under his fast-track prerogative Clinton did not alter the original agreement

[MNorris149]

but complemented it with the aforementioned NAAEC and NAALC.The North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC) was a response to environmentalists' concerns that the United States would lower its standards if the three countries did not achieve consistent environmental regulation. The NAAEC only obligates parties to enforce their own environmental laws. The NAAEC, in an endeavour to be more than a set of environmental regulations, established the North American Commission for

[3swelldogs3]

wow...so lets be Socialists and screw our American Values ay...lol. screw you!!!

and I got some bad news for you...it's going to be McCain!!!

[CopperKingKid]

You got it right John! Unfortunately the majority of your state (Indiana) doesn't get it. Hopefully Indiana gets it right before election day.  I believe in your words, "Aint That America Something To See" can become reality again under Obama. Lord knows we have some work to do after 8 years of Bush.

[hapbarb]

Barack has nothing to do with Islam - that lie/rumor has long been debunked by SO many reputable and credible sources. It can be found anywhere. Even if that would have been true, there are many Islamics who do not subscribe to the kinds of things mentioned in your reply.

I'll take healthy, peace-loving people over hateful, prejudiced types (including some Pentecostals) any day.

[hapbarb]

Jefeis, what about Palin's witch doctor? I'm hearing & seeing a lot of desperate, panicky right-wingers out there. I see room for all points of view - hopefully, after the election, the extremists among us will realize that they will better serve their cause(s) by discussing intelligently, rather than attacking wildly.

[jefeisdguard]

What about him?

He is a Jesus-loving Pentecostal preacher who happens to have come from village where witchcraft was the norm!

At least, even the worst of these canT compare to the extremism of Obamas religion of Islam!

Cutting off heads w/kitchen knife, burning people alive, stoning, hanging, shooting back of the head or using mentally challenged kids as suicide bombers. Not to mention female honor killings & female circumcision. These are what we should look forward to by Obama & friends

[mishagase]

OMGDS you have GOT to be kidding me. So now YOU are damning others for what their NATIVE faith is? God, me and all of mine woudl be burned at the stake if YOU were in charge - OR Palin's witch hunting pastor! This country GUARANTEES Freedom of Religion ANY religion - YOU woudl do well to remember that!

[jefeisdguard]

Islam IS NOT A RELIGION, but a cult of death. In fact, it could also be a mens sex club. If u knew, ud agree ... by ur statements u know nothing about Islam.

Our country Guarantees freedom of religion, Islam doesnt.

I remember that... but u'd do well to educate urself on Islam.

[mishagase]

Actually I have a Masters degree in Theology so I think I probably know a bit more about Islam than you do.

[jefeisdguard]

Guess then, by ur comments... u cheated.

Take lessons from Obama?

[mishagase]

dude - YOU need to educate YOURself on it from a non biased source not someone preaching hate and spreading fear.

[mishagase]

Now Now Now... You seem to be leaving out the GOP officials that have disenfranchised voters in CA and CO - they were actually ARESSTED and CHARGED.

[mishagase]

Good for you John!

As for you McCainicans Seriously - don't tell me what is wrong with MY candidate. Tell me what is RIGHT with yours. All I've seen from the McCan campiagn is the propagation in incitation of hate and lies. McCain/Plain camp lies more than twice as often with more than double the severity of the Obama/Biden Camp - doesn't that tell you people ANYTHING? Seriously?

[jefeisdguard]

Lies? When is Obama going to release his birth records? Disclosing these records would then make him A VIABLE QUALIFIED CANDIDATE!

Not including the voter fraud scams from ACORN, a supposedly non-partisan organization, who have been exposed as 'in the tank' for Obama or the blame game Obama spews that Repubs R 2 blame 4 Wall Street, when in fact the ones who BROKE it want to fix it! No, Obama will try get elected w/o disclosing ANY OF HIS RECORDS! Where were the background checks on him? LIES?

[mishagase]

Dude - he has released it.

Republicans pushed to deregulate Wall street - had those regulations stayed in place we would not be in this mess now.

If ACORN is in the Tank for Obama why did McCain speak at one of their events? hmm....

[jefeisdguard]

Birth records Obama released R faked.

Still refuses to release originals.

His African grandmother boasts watching Obama born in Africa!

Repubs DID push 4 deregulations, DEMS prevented them. Dems broke Wall Street & now want to fix it!

watch?v=ZXadMts7SQw&feature=em ail

Blame

Dems R desperately trying 2 pin this financial meltdown on everyone but themselves!

Obama was ACORNs attorney NOT McCain.

[mishagase]

Yeah, Obama along with the US Attorney general!

[jefeisdguard]

There are 12 million illegal aliens in the U.S. & Obama wants them all getting government benefits.

Obama has stated he wants 2 give each & everyone of them amnesty & citizenship.

9/11 plot began w/13 of 19 terrorists getting driver's licenses.

Poll data shows that when voters find out Obama supports giving illegal aliens driver's licenses, Social Security, Medicaid, college tuition & other benefits, they turn against him.

Obama most radical leftist ever nominated by the Democratic party.

[mishagase]

No, Wrong. He supports a path to citizenship for undocumented workers in the US. that is a HUGE difference.

[mishagase]

Ok - if Obama was NOT an American Citizen born on US soil do you REALLY think the FEC would have even allowed him enter the primary? Seriously - you all are REALLY reaching on this!

Obama is NOT a Socialist - but Palin sure is - tax dividends = redistributing wealth to ALL Alaskans!

Muslim - Last time I checked the US Constitution guaranteed FREEDOM OF RELIGION! But he's attended a CHRISTIAN CHURCH all of his life. His father is an Atheist.

Dude - get it right...

[jefeisdguard]

Palin demonstrated wealth redistribution from profits(NOT TAXES) of oil revenue strictly localized within her state! Locals' heating bills were high & this sagacious CEO found a way to help everyone! Obama, tho, would tax the hell out of everyone to help all of the lazy bozos out there. Obama is purely a socialist. Has been indoctrinated heavily in socialism from his mom(marxist), mentor(commie), friends(socialists), teachers(marxists) & associates! No candidate has had this much exposure!

All major universities and most so-called 'christian' ones were infiltrated long ago by our ENEMIES, that's DOMESTIC natural born ENEMIES, to be clear.

We need "Liberal" season. Don't understand? Follow my links, read the quotes page first.

And who's goddess? Wiccan nutbar huh?

[mishagase]

Nope, not Wiccan, never have been. simply a peaceful Unitarian that acknowledges that without Woman, Man would be little (after all - do he have a womb I dont' know about?) and givent hat humankind was created in teh image of the Divine I'd say that means that God/dess is pretty dualistic in nature.

I've followed your links. It's little more than bunk.

[waypasthadenough]

"I've followed your links. It's little more than bunk."

uh huh. In one afternoon you determined that. nutbar like I thought.

"Liberal" season's coming. Hope to see ya' then.

[mishagase]

No, I've been doing research on the candidates - ALL of them - since the beginning of the primaries what your links show is little more than propaganda from the right. Not non partisan sources. When I research I look the non partisan sites, sites with balanced information. YOU do not provide that.

But unlike you, I'm not calling YOU a name I'm simply telling you what I think of your info. Ever hear of the High road? Maybe try walking it sometime!

As opposed to Palin's abuse of power that she was found guilty of?

•The Treasury

•The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces

•Appointment of all the lower court Judges

Seriously?  You are REALLY REALLY Reaching here you know that don't you?

[jefeisdguard]

"Seriously? You are REALLY REALLY Reaching here you know that don't you?"

Ok, this is stupid. You have gone too far & have said some pretty stupid, arrogant & ignorant statements... time to put up or shutup!

You keep satting Obama has released some records... PROVE IT. ALL OF IT. LET'S HAVE IT.

PUT UP OR SHUT UP!

[waypasthadenough]

Honey, I've been walking the high road for 15 years. Is that too patronizing? If it helps I've been 'journalist' and went to j-school and there's no such thing as a 'non-partisan' site, source, newspaper, tv network, anything, never has been never will be.

So I can play nice if you prove you're allegiance to human Liberty and your hatred, yes hatred, of authoritarianism of all kinds.

And don't lecture me on pacifism or peace. Neither exists in this world despite how many lie to themselves.

[mishagase]

Exactly what does one have to do to "prove allegiance" to human liberty and hatred of authoritarianism? And how do YOU define those things?

I never said I was a pacifist nor did I say anything in this world was peaceful either.

[waypasthadenough]

Still haven't read my quotes page have you?

Until then don't waste my time.

[mishagase]

Actually I have read it and I'm really not impressed.

it comes down to something really very simple. You simply have a far different ideology than I do. It doesnt' make you or me right or wrong, it merely makes us each different.

That is the difference. THE "RIGHT" is quick to judge Any/Everyone for their differences and damn them for them but the left simply acknowledges that they are differences.

I never once called you names - you called me a "nutjob" because I dont' share your ideas

[waypasthadenough]

Then I was right earlier. There is probably no hope for you.

Let me make it simple, not for you but for those reading this:

When "Liberal" scum vote for "Liberal" scum to hire thugs with guns and badges to shove their socialist shit in their neighbors' faces they are just as guilty as any Hitler, Stalin, Klinton, Obamacommie, McCommie, etc.

So when "Liberal" season starts, don't be surprised, since you are too stupid or too evil to realize you don't belong here. End of discussion.

[mishagase]

Thank you for proving my point.

I'm sorry but if one has to result to blatant threats and insults to make a point then their point isn't good enough to be attempted.

Judging by this most recent comment you arent' JUST anti Obama your anti McCain as well. Who would YOU out in the whitehouse if this were YOUR world to govern?

[waypasthadenough]

My my, it's starting to get upset. If it keeps on it might manage to have an actual independent thought.

I don't make 'blatant' threats and it's not name-calling if it's true. My points are on my website which this witch obviously hasn't studied very well despite calling what it allegedly saw there 'bunk.' Typical "Liberal" freak.

It also obviously can't read since I already wrote 'end of discussion.'

[mishagase]

No, I'm WELL past upset.

Yes, it IS name calling and they are Blatant threats "liberal season , see you then" sounds pretty threatening to me.

And DO NOT refer to me as an "it" I'm a grown 40 year old woman and pregnant mother of 3 incredible children. I AM NOT AN IT. I'm also not just a Witch, I'm an educated Witch with a Theology degree.

And Yes, I can read, I'm just completely blown away by your rudeness and and "one way/my way" ideology.

[Aoidi]

I guess you lose!

[waypasthadenough]

"Liberal" season isn't over yet. If I see you then, you lose, scum. You don't belong in this country if you love authoritarianism. You will be removed.

[Aoidi]

You got it backward. The right is authoritative, the left is liberal. Extreme right leads to dictatorships. (Hitler, Stalin). I am not left...I lived under Communism (as an American...long story). Great experience, life sucked for the little people. I am a vet. I served without recognition. And you? The message is not if you are right or left. The message is we need to change things so Americans have jobs, including Americans who advance hatred like you. The message (was) about choice. Aiodi.

[waypasthadenough]

And you are grossly ignorant. I'm neither 'right' nor 'left,' those are constructs used by our domestic enemies to manipulate the sheeple. Start with my quotes page or stop wasting my time.

And there are lots of military, vets, cops etc, who will go along with the marxist mutt's evil and kill whomever he tells them to so he can help usher in the NWO.

[waypasthadenough]

If you really want to know what at least half the military and cops will do read my columns...

[waypasthadenough]

If you really want to know what at least half the military and cops will do read my columns...

And I suggest you look up 'liberal' on wikipedia.

[waypasthadenough]

And did you actually read my entire quotes page? Your 'bunk' statement shows you didn't. I quote lots of the commies' heroes. I promise it won't hurt, too much.

Strike two...

[mishagase]

yeah, I have and I STILL think it's bunk. who the fuck are you to say what another views as crap is right or wrong?

[mishagase]

""Liberal" season's coming. Hope to see ya' then."

Is that a threat?

[mishagase]

What I don't understand is the Far "christian" right feeling the need to damn everyone that does not agree with them simply because they disagree with an extreme ideology.

Last time I checked the Cristian God doesn't preach Hate - never has never will. Why some are so insistent that only THEIR way is the right way is just beyond me.

Obama, constitutional lawyer, will figure a way to wayside our constitution by committing the greatest fraud in this election. He will try to get elected by NOT disclosing his real birth & medical records.

Obama, muslim commie liar

[mishagase]

He HAS submitted his REAL birth certificate. it was verified by the FEC and the HI dept. of health.

And again the man is NOT a Muslim.

His medical records were released as well. unlike McCain who gave a "limited" release to select press for a limited time period (3 hours) with over 1100 pgs of text to read in 3 hours by a group of 20 reporters? Hardly releasing records.

[waypasthadenough]

No, Obamacommie isn't a muslim, nor a 'christian.' He's a secular Marxist, something far more evil. His god is the govt. and he will shove his authoritarianism down our throats at the point of a govt. gun if we let him.

See my blog and my quotes page...

[mishagase]

how and where do you come up with this. First you on the right call him a socialist, then you call him a Marxist - you can't be BOTH!

I think that the EXTREMISTS are teh real problem - you seem to be a proponent of that ideal.

[waypasthadenough]

Still haven't read my quotes page have you? If you did you might understand. Then to read the articles under 'history' on my links page.

I went through 6 months of denial several years back. For some it can be painful. But the truth will, uh, make you really pissed off, or go hide under a rock.

[mishagase]

I don't hide, I confront - or haven't you noticed that?

Bottom line - I dont' want any part of your (or any) extremist idea of "truth". Nor does a significant number of REAL Americans.

[jefeisdguard]

Obama passed a law w/Sen.Coburn requiring more transparency via public database of all federal spending.

Obama complained of the Bush White House as being "most secretive administrations in our history" Even chided Hillary for NOT releasing her White House schedules. Obama has stonewalled info about his; legislative, personal health, education, financing, & background

The press, usually banging at the door for candidates to make "full disclosure" is strangely quiet about Obama's stonewalling.
