well said. this country is DONE if obama is president. he's not even from america but he's gonna run our country...FUCK! people are fuckin idiots these days.
look at these lovelly people, and dont get surprised tommorow if FOX says that OBAMA wins black majority states only, but that´s nosence we all know the truth this time, whites,blacks,asians,latinos, every race is hungry for change this time.
Hi Iris, I got your response bec in this lineup above, hope it wasn't for me. I was talking to lendo1987. I'm 65 and have seen it all and am so disheartened by the neofascist Nazi stuff that's being spewed on this thread. The Right Wing has done an excellent job for a long time, some of these people are as young as 22. Sounds to me like you're going to be alright, don't let it get to you. I'm a Maine native, and will be retiring soon back home to clean fresh air.
It must be a sad, lonely place, up there on your pedestal. The right isn't loaded with mindless idiots who blindly follow the word of its leaders as well?
Oh, REALlY! Are you calling me an idiot? I just stated some historical, political facts. Do you know the meaning of Philadelphia, MS, the little town where 3 Civil Rights activists, 2 Jewish and one 16 yr old black kid were murdered by some KKK types and thrown/buried in a quarry dirt pile. Goodman, Mickey Schwerner and James Chaney. You people listen to the likes of Rush Limbaugh who was Newt Gingrich's mouthpiece on Talk Radio and vice versa, Newt being mouthpiece for Rush on House Floor.
I didn't know that stating the truth was being up on a pedestal, or are you intimidated by painful truths about the Republican party exploting the dark underbelly of the American character for political gain for the last 40 years.
oh, so sorry, I misread your last sentence on the right, just read it again. I hate all the negativism. The reactionary right, Newt, and Talk Radio have really done their job the last 20 yrs, plus the previous 20 yrs. Now we have 2 or 3 more generations of hate to weed out in this country.
It's people like YOU,(just love your web picture, that's Goebbels isn't it how fitting) who have been destroying this country's heart/soul over past 40 yrs starting w/Nixon's southern strategy. When Reagan took his nat'l campaign on the road the first place he went was Philadelphia, MS, making state's rights speeches. I'm a 65 yr old white redhead fm Maine so don't mess with me sweetheart.
So whats the problem with using force ? There were several votes to ok it. Many UN resolutions ignored. Whats so bad about getting rid of Saadam and fighting Al Queida in Iraq instead of here ?
Because over 4,000 Americans have been killed so far, not to mention those terribly maimed for life. What's the matter w/you, THINK. Bin Laden was in Afghanistan hiding remember? But Bush had to be a bigger man than his daddy and "finish what daddy didn't." The Oedipal implications are enough to choke you. If we had focused on Afghanistan like we should have that cntry wldn't be crumbling again, w/the Taliban gaining control again.
obama is related to a bunch of terrorist...why the fuck are we gonna let him run our country...HES NOT EVEN FROM AMERICA!!! WTF is wrong with you people. AGAINST WAR??? So we'll let his uncle bomb us numerous times and sit back and watch. YEAY!!!Fuckin people cant even vote correctly on American Idol, what makes you think you can elect the right person for our country. ???
not saying anyone can magically snap their fingers and stop terrorism or whatever the make the world a better place. but how can you vote a pres. against war? what if we get attacked again...just let it go...considering the one attacking is OBAMA'S RELATIVES?!?! How can a NON-AMERICAN get voted in for pres.? I just dont understand that. I think hes popular because people think hes black and it would be historical. hes not black.(thats what people in atlanta think at least)
So everyone who lives in the Middle East is automatically a terrorist, and because of his lineage Obama is related to each and every one of them? How very open-minded of you.
Take the time to think about the last eight years before you just assume that Obama will not defend this country. Bush started the war that we're in right now, using terrorism as the (very, very weak) excuse. Obama wants to rebuild this nation.
actually he does have relatives that are terrorist...maybe you should check that out. and secondly, when clinton was pres. did you know our ships and such were bombed killing our people? and we did nothing? thats why it all led to 9/11. that didnt just happen randomly. BUSH actually is doing something about it. god damn democrats are killing our people, watching it happen. rebuild this nation? to what? a bigger target?
If someone's family was German and was in the Third Reich during WWII, would automatically assume that they were a white supremacist? I think not. Maybe you should stop doing research and start doing some soul-searching.
Oh, and Bush isn't killing thousands of people by forcing us to try to restore peace in a country that didn't want or need us there in the first place? What happened to looking for the man who CAUSED 9-11, hmm?
ya i am happy for what we did, no more Clinton brand in white House, we need Change and we did the right thing i drove 2hrs and wighted fro line 1hr,we need chance for change Yes we did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yeah he is related to a" fucking terrorist" = Dick Cheney ( that is his real cousin) Now I see why Obama want to invest in education! YOU ARE SO STUPID go read a book -
I was at the event outside! I drove 4 hours from Canada to see Obama. I hope you all stand up for Obama and do your part so Barack can start changing the perception internationally of The USA. He can do it and it needs to be done.
At the time, someone else was talking inside and all of a sudden we heard through the speakers, "Ladies and Gentlemen, Barack Obama!" (or something like that) and it interupted the speaker. and we were all confused, so that must have been why we heard that. No one inside that I'm aware of had any idea he came out to talk to you guys. I think that that's so cool that he did!
haha. you hear a noise?
