McCain calls on Obama to repudiate ‘shocking’ Lewis comments
CNN
John McCain – who has often praised civil rights icon John Lewis – called a statement by the Georgia congressman Saturday comparing the outbursts at recent Republican rallies to the rhetoric of segregationist George Wallace “a brazen and baseless attack” that is “shocking and beyond the pale.”
Lewis issued his statement after several days of headline-grabbing anger directed at Democratic nominee Barack Obama by some attendees at McCain campaign rallies.

“What I am seeing reminds me too much of another destructive period in American history. Sen. McCain and Gov. [Sarah] Palin are sowing the seeds of hatred and division, and there is no need for this hostility in our political discourse,” Lewis said in a statement.

“George Wallace never threw a bomb. He never fired a gun, but he created the climate and the conditions that encouraged vicious attacks against innocent Americans who were simply trying to exercise their constitutional rights. Because of this atmosphere of hate, four little girls were killed on Sunday morning when a church was bombed in Birmingham, Alabama,” wrote the Democrat.

McCain has written about Lewis, praising his actions at Selma during the civil rights movement. The Republican nominee even said during a summer faith forum that Lewis was one of three men he would turn to for counsel as president.

But the Arizona senator blasted the congressman’s remarks, and called on Obama to repudiate them. “Congressman John Lewis’ comments represent a character attack against Governor Sarah Palin and me that is shocking and beyond the pale,” he said in a Saturday afternoon statement released by his campaign.

Barack Hussein Obama’s wanna be Dictator response:
Obama’s campaign said he did not agree with the comparison made by Lewis — but did not repudiate the congressman’s remarks.

“Senator Obama does not believe that John McCain or his policy criticism is in any way comparable to George Wallace or his segregationist policies,” said Obama spokesman Bill Burton. “But John Lewis was right to condemn some of the hateful rhetoric that John McCain himself personally rebuked just last night, as well as the baseless and profoundly irresponsible charges from his own running mate that the Democratic nominee for President of the United States ‘pals around with terrorists.’

“As Barack Obama has said himself, the last thing we need from either party is the kind of angry, divisive rhetoric that tears us apart at a time of crisis when we desperately need to come together. That is the kind of campaign Senator Obama will continue to run in the weeks ahead.”

Wild Thing’s comment……..
Good move for McCain. “I condemned the anger, now you condemn the Anti-American remarks” of course Hussein won’t. To the few and I do mean few that still might have a brain cell left they will see what an ass Obama is in his reaction to what McCain said.
But one thing I have to say and Nicholas and I have been talking about this. These people at the McCain/Palin rallies could very well be PLANTS FROM OBAMA’S CAMPAIGN. All it would have taken is an Obama plant or some yay-hoo shouting something offensive for the drive-bys to grab it and run with it.
Barack and Michelle Obama are racist extrodinaire and the omments like Rep. Lewis’s are previews of what is to come if the Liberal Messiah is given title to the United States. This will be His country and he mold it in His image. All those who express “hateful” (i.e., dissenting) views will be “re-educated”.
Obama put himself into this — first by stating that Ayers was “some guy who lives in my neighborhood”, then acknowledging that they “served on a board together”, then admitting that his first fundraiser was held at the house of Ayers (whose wife, Bernadine Dohrn, was on the FBI Most Wanted List). Now he’s claiming that Ayers has been “rehabilitated”, which is an odd phrase out of Soviet Russia. Rehabilitated just when? Was it on 9/11/2001 when the NY Times published an inteview with Ayers in which he said that he didn’t regret the bombs, only wished he’d done more? Was it after that when Ayers was photographed stomping on an American flag? Was it when Ayers expressed “remorse” – he NEVER has.
Just WHEN Barack Hussein Obama, was this terrorist “rehabilitated” and for what reason? Or don’t you want to talk about it and instead send out your minions (like John Lewis) to shriek “racism” at anyone who dares bring up the subject? If you can’t take the heat on this subject, Senator Obama, then you should never have gone in Ayers’ (and Dohrn’s) kitchen to raise money.
Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals , Obama probably sleeps with this.
Here’s the difference between the parties on this topic:
The Democrats want to own the blacks;
The Republicans want to free the blacks.
It’s time to go nuclear on the race issue. You can’t dance around it. You have to say it straight out: Barack Obama has racist friends, has worked for racist organizations.
Mc Cain does not have to raise his voice. He simply must state firmly each fact of each scandal followed by each of Obama’s replies in each of the questionable areas (Those in the Hood both Chicago, Washington, and now Uganda)……and at the end state Obama is a Chicago Politician. His next line After a pregent pause “Acorn, Africa, Ayers…….We haven’t EVEN gotten to the ‘B’s yet!

Obama cannot speak without notes or a teleprompter

Election news
Already advertising at record levels, Barack Obama has scheduled a half-hour commercial for prime time on Oct. 29, six days before Election Day.
Obama campaign officials said the campaign had secured a 30-minute block of time at 8 p.m. on CBS and NBC. CBS already was juggling its lineup to accommodate the Democratic presidential candidate

LA Times

The campaign’s move is unusual, but not unprecedented. Right before the 1992 presidential election, Independent candidate Ross Perot’s aired a series of 30-minute campaign ads on prime-time TV. More than 16.5 million people tuned in to watch the Republican billionaire’s broadcast, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Wild Thing’s comment………
I wonder if he will have his ugly fake Presidential seal with him when he speaks. Will he be sitting on a throne??
Or …..oh wait …….maybe he have it start with him looking at a fireplace, back turned to the camera as he stokes the fire with a poker. He turns around, with mild surprise, smiles, “Oh, hello! I’m Barack Obama, and it’s wonderful to speak to you tonight.”
There is a laughable thing about this. Barack Hussein Obama has been getting 100 backing and supporting and FREE ADVERTISING from MSNBC, CNN and the rest of the media since he bagn his campaign. And NOW HE WANTS TO PAY FOR IT? ROTFLMAO
Get ready for full-throated socialism in the USA, with Hussein as titular head of state.
Wow that’s gonna be a hard half-hour: “Uh, uhhhh, uh, and and and, uhhhhhhhh…” OH wait Obama willl just read his speech. LOL I laugh every time I hear an idiot say he is a good speaker, he is a READER NOT A SPEAKER!
Obama already has his own channel (73) on Dish satellite that’s a 24/7 campaign commercial for the Messiah!
This should be at the end of it as the credits roll…. the previous 30 minutes were brought to you by the following friends & neighbors, without who’s support this presentation would not have been possible:
Hezbollah
Jamaat-e-Islami
Workers Party of Korea
Hezbe Wahdat
The estate of Abd Al Aziz Al Saud
The Fifth Republic

If you applied for a low or mid-level government job that required a mid-level security clearance, and in your background they found associations with terrorist William Ayres who bombed the Pentagon, with convicted felon Tony Rezko, the racist Reverend Wright and Louis Farrakhan… significant past drug use and a dual US-Kenyan citizenship… simply put, you would not be given that security clearance and you would not get the job.
On the other hand, there would be no problem for you to become President of the United States and be the boss of all of those folks with security clearances. Welcome to ‘Theater of the absurd’; welcome to the United States 2008.

Barack Obama Couldn’t Pass a Routine Background Investigation
North Star Writers Group
by Gregory D.Lee
A while back, radio talk show host Michael Savage brought up the notion that Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama couldn’t pass a background investigation to become an FBI special agent.
He doesn’t know how right he is.
Sen. Barack Obama wouldn’t pass a routine government background investigation, not only to become an FBI agent, but a police officer as well. If he were a soldier, his background would preclude him from obtaining a security clearance. He wouldn’t even qualify to be a support person in a federal agency, such as secretary, for that matter.His past cocaine usage disqualifies him from being a DEA agent.
There’s another big problem Sen. Obama has: His association and business relationship with Weatherman Underground founder William Ayers, a former domestic terrorist who is still unrepentant for his bombings on U.S. landmarks and police stations. Usually, the company you keep reveals who you really are. Ayers felt then, as he does now, that America is the evil of the world and needs punishing for past and current bad acts. Not many federal agencies would want someone with that kind of chip on his shoulder working for it.
Also, Sen. Obama’s association with Tony Rezko and the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) come to mind. Rezko was just convicted of promoting corruption among Chicago politicians. He helped in the purchase of the senator’s home and was a campaign fundraiser for Obama. ACORN is being investigated by the feds for systematic voter registration fraud. Not good things.
Let’s not forget about Sen. Obama’s pastor and mentor for 20 years, America-hater Rev. Jeremiah Wright. When first questioned about his membership in Wright’s black theology church, Sen. Obama first denied knowing Rev. Wright harbored such negative feelings about the U.S., but after being further pressed, he dismissed the reverend’s conduct as like a “crazy uncle” who lived in the basement. He finally decided that he couldn’t politically afford to stay in the church, and dropped his membership.
To keep job applicants honest, many government agencies such as DEA, FBI, CIA and others require them to take a polygraph examination. Do you think Sen. Obama could pass a polygraph when he approves an ad that mocks Sen. John McCain for being unable to send e-mails without mentioning his poorly mended broken arms while in custody of the North Vietnamese which prevents him from manipulating the computer keyboard? He’s not computer illiterate, he’s handicapped!
Would you want a police officer in your city associating with such people? Not likely. But Obama supporters ignore these associations because they are desperate for a Democrat in the White House.
A federal government full-field background investigation would also look for prior inconsistencies, exaggerations and outright lies on an application for employment.

Wild Thing’s comment…………
Bill Clinton could not have passed these tests and look at all the horrible things he did as President.
When a person runs for President is used to be to my understand that background checks were done, but that was a long time ago. I guess they just don’t care anymore. But this is something McCain/Palin campaign should make an ad about imo.
If Barack Hussein Obama wins he will go down in history as the most successful communist mole ever.
When Nicholas was in the Navy one of the jobs he had to do required him to be cleared for Top Secret Clearance work or however you put that. He said he was investigated all the way back to the womb. haaha They went all the way back to his chilidhood as a small child up through the years of his life to that day. He cleared with no problem but there is no way Obama could pass this in any way.

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin acted “within proper and lawful authority” in removing the state’s public safety commissioner, the McCain-Palin Republican presidential ticket has said in response to a state report.
The McCain-Palin statement said, “Today’s report shows that the Governor acted within her proper and lawful authority in the reassignment of Walt Monegan.”
“This was a partisan led inquiry run by (Barack) Obama supporters and the Palins were completely justified in their concern regarding Trooper (Michael) Wooten given his violent and rogue behaviour,” the campaign’s statement said. Senator Obama is the Democratic presidential candidate.
“Lacking evidence to support the original Monegan allegation, the Legislative Council seriously overreached, making a tortured argument to find fault without basis in law or fact,” the McCain-Palin statement said.

Wild Thing’s comment……….
Screw you Obama and your people. Yes I blame Obama for this waste of time and harassment as much as his voters that saw fit to even go afetr Sarah Palin about this.
Sarah is vindicated there is no offense and we KNEW there wouldn’t be. What a farce this was, what horrible people. Their deeply partisan opinion that she “abused” her power is a hollow death rattle for their “investigation.”

Tom McClintock was born July 10, 1956, in White Plains, New York, is a California State Senator, representing the 19th district. On March 4, 2008, McClintock announced his candidacy as the Republican nominee for U.S. House of Representatives , California’s 4th congressional district.

Tom McClintock’s Democrat opponent Charlie Brown has been running one of the most vile, hate filled campaign filled with lies and attacks of more lies about Tom McClintock.
Here is a sample of the kind of low life this Charlie Brown is and how he was involved with this and supported it.
Here is a TV ad highlighting Charlie Brown’s participation at a anti-war rally, where he wore his uniform, in support of a homeowner who hung a soldier in effigy.

Sacramento Bee,
David Whitney,
Bee Washington Bureau
October 31, 2006

Anti-war activist Stephen Pearcy, who gained attention from his Sacramento home in February when he hung a human-shaped form dressed in a military uniform and adorned it with anti-war messages, charged that the retired Air Force officer is distancing himself from the protesters who had come to regard Brown as one of them.

“He’s back-pedaling,” said Pearcy in an interview. “He was initially holding himself out as an anti-war candidate, someone who vehemently opposed the war and supported immediate withdrawal. Now I am not so sure he supports that … This is an example of the kind of Democrats we’ve had who have acted basically in a spineless manner.”

Pearcy said the Roseville Democrat had appeared at his house in February when his dangling protest symbol was generating crowds of pro-war activists. Pearcy said Brown was dressed in his Air Force uniform to show his solidarity with him and his wife.”

Tom McClintock for Congress
He is a conservative Republican, strong on defense, strong stance against amnesty for illegal aliens, has worked hard for our Veterans, supported the Surge and supports our military big time.
State Sen. Tom McClintock’s congressional campaign has criticized opponent Charlie Brown over his campaign contributions from embattled U.S. Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-New York) and noted that U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco), who has also contributed to Brown’s campaign, is facing questions about her own campaign fundraising.
This is one of the hearted battles in our country. The Dems never can run an honest campaign and so it is important to show support as much as possible for Republicans especially men like Tom McClintock that is well deserved.

Some quotes from those who have served our country about Tom McClintonck.

“Every dollar that the government wastes is a dollar less we can spend to help the families of the men and women overseas, and those wounded in combat. As a Marine who served in both Iraq and Afghanistan, we need Tom McClintock in Congress to fight the Democrats’ message of ‘cut and run.’”–Duncan D. Hunter, Captain United States Marine Corps (R)

“Tom McClintock has supported hundreds of bills over the years that support our military, our veterans and their families. Tom McClintock supported the surge and reinforcements for our troops. I proudly support McClintock for Congress.”–Rod Allen, reserve officer in the United States Marine Corp.

“Tom McClintock is a true patriot; he supported reinforcing our troops in when others, including his opponent, wanted to cut and run. He has a stellar record on veterans affair and is a co-author of Proposition 12 which will provide home loans to veterans.”–Tom Dwelle, retired Air Force Lt. Colonel

Yes on Proposition 8’s campaign director Karen England issued the following statement regarding 4th congressional candidate Charlie Brown’s opposition to Proposition 8:

“For California families, there is no other political issue this election as important as saving marriage. That’s why it is imperative that voters support only candidates who respect traditional marriage. Charlie Brown’s astonishing opposition to Proposition 8 reveals just how out of touch he is with citizens in the 4th congressional district-and the overwhelming majority of Californians and Americans.

After evading the issue for months, Mr. Brown finally declared that he does not support Proposition 8. This means that Mr. Brown supports four activist judges overturning Proposition 22, and imposing their social agenda on Californians.

“Not only am I working to pass Proposition 8, I’m a resident of the 4th congressional district. I know my fellow voters in this district-they’re my neighbors and friends. In his opposition to Proposition 8, Mr. Brown sides with radical liberals who certainly don’t represent the values of our community.

“Given his outright opposition to the most essential issue to families-the definition of marriage-Mr. Brown is not the candidate voters in support of marriage will ever support.”

A 4th congressional district resident from Roseville, Karen England is the campaign director for Yes on Proposition 8. This voter-supported campaign committee is dedicated to educating voters about the issue of marriage. To learn more, visit www.YesonProposition8.com

He was awarded a Bronze Star for his accomplishments as a battalion commander during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Senator Stivers returned to the Senate in December 2005. He has served in the military since 1985. He has held positions as Radio-Teletype Operator, Chemical Officer, Company Commander, Logistics Officer, Battalion Executive Officer and Battalion Commander.
He is currently a Lieutenant Colonel in the Ohio Army National Guard. He has more than 22 years of service and served the nation oversees for nearly a year in Operation Iraqi Freedom in Kuwait, Iraq, Qatar and Djibouti.
Steve Stivers for Congress

Steve Stivers opponent is Mary Jo Kilroy , she is a staunch Democratic Socialist communist somone and of course a big supporter as well of Barack Hussein Obama.
Mary Jo Kilroy stars in a socialist French documentary by Noel Burch, on his journey back to America to visit his militant, far left friends, of which Kilroy is one.
From The Hill

Kilroy has appeared in a documentary about radical socialism and led a discussion at a 1997 conference of the Center for Democratic Values, a think tank associated with the Democratic Socialists of America, about arguing for public schools.

Kilroy has been locked in a tense race with Republican Steve Stivers in Ohio’s 15th Congressional District, where Republican incumbent Rep. Deborah Pryce is retiring.

I pray Steve Stivers wins by a landslide wouldn’t that be awesome and kick this Kilroy back to kingdom come.

Wild Thing’s comment………
With only 29 days left until the election, every day is an important one not only for the Presidential campaign but also for all the other ones going on across our country. As you know I have posted various campaigns happening. William Russell vs. John Murtha and othes and this is another one I would like to tell you about.
What is shocking in the various campaigns is how similar they ALL are, because all the Democrats running against the Republicans are socialists, communists,anti-American, have your pick from all or any of those things. But they all are against what America has stood for and they all want to change it to a socialist, communist country.
The Democrats have NO shame and are backed by a media that has no shame as well as they have all become blantant in their push for our country to dive into the pits of socialism/communism.
We have got to fight back!! That is why when we saw the video the other day I posted of Americans yelling out how fed up they were at several of the McCain/Palin rallies it is huge. It was wonderful and it is a step in the right direction.
Men like Steve Stivers are our chance to fight back and keep America from being run over by the likes of this socialists Obama brained commie like Kilory.
God bless Steve Stivers in his run for Congress.

Hands up! You’re under arrest for saying ‘Hussein Obama!’
Fort Myers, FL.
We have seen many changes in this great nation which have been brought about by left wing activists. As kids, we used to say the Pledge of Allegiance. Now, it’s being attacked in the courts. We used to say a prayer in the morning before school or at football games. Socialists in America have deemed that “offensive” and the practice has all but disappeared. Christmas displays honoring the birth of Christ trigger convulsions by the Left, who say that we shouldn’t make people feel “uncomfortable” with our manger scenes.
Now, we can’t even say what we want to say in public because not only will the thought police be on patrol, but, using a recent event in Florida as an example, saying “Hussein Obama” in public might just get you a visit from the FBI. Just ask Florida’s Lee County Sheriff Mike Scott who is under fire — and investigation — for referring to Obama at a campaign rally by his — gasp — full name. What is going on with America?
At a rally in Estero, Florida on Monday for Gov. Sarah Palin, one of the pre-rally speakers was Sheriff Scott. Now, anyone who has been to a political rally knows that the job of the warm-up speakers is to do exactly as the name implies: warm-up the audience. Whether the audience is cheering wildly or booing loudly, the pre-rally speakers are there to wake them up and get them going. So… according to ABC News, Sheriff Scott stepped to the podium and said, “On November 4, let’s leave Barack Hussein Obama wondering what happened.”
Oh, the shock of it all! Speaking someone’s full legal name in public! When asked about the “incident,” Sheriff Scott responded by saying:

“I absolutely, unequivocally don’t regret saying it,” Scott told the News-Press on Monday. “In order to be a speaker at this event, I had to give my full name — Michael Joseph Scott — to the Secret Service, even though I’m the sheriff of Lee County. So why would I apologize? Is there some kind of double standard here where I have to give my full name, but I can’t use his?”

“Unless he changed his name, my position hasn’t changed,” said Scott of Obama. “It seems very clear to me that people have one of three stances on this thing: There are those who dislike it, there are those who like it, and there are those who think it’s a whole big deal about nothing, which is where I stand.”

As noted in the Cape Coral Daily Breeze, the Palin campaign responded by issuing the following statement:
“We do not condone this inappropriate rhetoric which distracts from the real questions of judgment, character and experience that voters will base their decisions on this November.”
Fair enough. If Palin or anyone else wants to say the usage of Barack Hussein Obama is inappropriate, he or she has a right to do so. But Sheriff Scott also has a right to say what he wants to say without fear of reprisal by the government. However, according to a local Florida NBC affiliate, Sheriff Scott’s remark has now earned him an investigation by the federal government.
The NBC station reports that officials with the U.S. Office of Special Counsel have started an investigation of the Sheriff under the question of “did he use his position as sheriff to influence an election? If so, he could be in violation of a federal election law called the Hatch Act.” The basis the Feds are using is whether Scott was campaigning while on duty and in uniform.
Sheriff Scott responded to the NBC story with the following statement:

“I am on duty 24/7 and 365 whether in or out of uniform. Like every other elected official, I am aware of from President to Governor to State Representatives, etc. We engage in political activities whether for ourselves as candidates or for others. As of this writing, I am unaware of having done anything to generate all this attention other than using the senator’s full name.”

The question is this… If Sheriff Scott had not said “Barack Hussein Obama,” do you really think he would now be under investigation? If you answered “no,” then that should send a shiver down your spine, because it means that the government is imposing pressure and creating a public example of Scott for simply saying someone’s name.
Whether the investigation leads to charges or legal action is not the point. The point is that government intimidation is being brought to bear for someone exercising his first amendment right to free speech. This is wrong, regardless of whether you think his usage of Barack Hussein Obama was appropriate or not. This is still America, isn’t it?

Wild Thing’s comment………..
Barack Hussein Obama is his name and if Barack does not like his middle name then he could have changed it when he changed his last name a long time ago.
Obama and his campaign behave like some kind of third world dictator. Don’t mention his ears he says, don’t call him a liberal he has said,don’t talk about Ayers, Wright, Rezko he says, and don’t use his middle name.
Anyone can see what B. Hussein Obama is doing and as long as people cave in to this jerk Obama, they will be even more sorry IF he wins this election and see the horrors he will do to this country. It will be a lot more then just not letting people use his middle name.
And I have no intention of not using it as long as that is his name. If he doesn’t like he can take some of that freaking Bailout Money and go to court and have his name changed.
This is still America the land of the free and a Republic, and we WILL overthrow dictators…… you betcha!

“I’m mad! I’m really mad! “When you have Obama, [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi and the rest of the hooligans up there going to ruin the country, we have to have our head examined!”
“It’s time that you two represent the rest of us. So go get ’em!”
The shot heard around the world was just fired!
Americans are finally realizing we are on the verge of losing our country to the Socialists and Communists.

.

There were shouts of “Nobama” and “Socialist” at the mention of the Democratic presidential nominee.

“It is absolutely vital that you take it to Obama, that you hit him where it hits, there’s a soft spot,” said James T. Harris, a local radio talk show host, who urged the Republican nominee to use Barack Obama’s controversial former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., and others against him.

“We have the Reverend Wright. We have the Rev. Michael L.Pfleger. We have all of these shady characters that have surrounded him,” Harris bellowed. “We have corruption here in Wisconsin and voting across the nation. I am begging you, sir. I am begging you. Take it to him.”

The crowd of thousands roared its approval.

“I’m mad! I’m really mad!” another man said.” And what’s gonig to surprise you it’s not the economy. It’s the socialists taking over our country!!!!!!”

“Sit down I’m not done. Lemme finish, please,” he said after a standing ovation. “When you have Obama, a Pelosi and the rest of the hooligans up there going to run the country, we have to have our head examined.

“It’s time that you two represent the rest of us. So go get ’em.”

The crowd burst into loud chants of “U-S-A! U-S-A!”

“Senator Obama has a clear radical, far-left, pro-abortion record,” McCain said after being asked about the issue.

The answer prompted a shower of boos from the crowd members. They booed again when he mentioned William Ayers, who bombed U.S. facilities to protest the Vietnam War as part of the domestic terrorist group the Weather Underground. They booed again at the mention of Rep. Barney Frank, a liberal from Massachusetts.

“Will you assure us,” one woman asked, “that, as president, you will take immediate action to investigate, prosecute and name the names of the people actually responsible?”

“I will,” McCain answered. “The same people that are now claiming credit for this rescue are the same ones that were willing co-conspirators in causing this problem that it is,” he said, raising his voice to be heard over the crowd. “You know their names. You will know more of their names, Congressman Barney Franks and Senator Chris Dodd are two of them.”

“No, I’m not mad, I’m pissed,” said Joan Schmitz, who owns a plumbing company here. She said she was frustrated with polls showing Obama surging, Obama himself, the media, and the liberal group ACORN, which she said was registering voters fraudulently.

Noting Obama’s connections with Ayers, she said that “if it was a Republican, it would be nonstop,” referring to what she said was the media ignoring the controversial acquaintance.

“I can’t stand to look at him, I don’t trust him. I don’t like the circle of friends he keeps, I don’t like his policies,” Schmitz said of Obama. “I’m pissed off by it. I’m beyond mad. How is he climbing up in the polls?”

On the way into the event, the Republican Party of Wisconsin handed out fliers reading “Your Vote Is Being Stolen,” an anti-ACORN leaflet that concluded, “Why is vote fraud allowed? Vote fraud is allowed since it benefits Democrats.”
McCain’s events are attended by liberal protesters, who often yell epithets and hold angry signs as McCain’s bus drives by. And they recalled angry words from Obama at a rally in Las Vegas last month, in which he urged supporters to talk to their friends and neighbors, saying “I want you to argue with them and get in their face”, and when Obama also said, “if they bring a knife we’ll bring a gun”.
The Obama camp want us to believe that its all about the economy, we care about the economy and so does the man in the audience that spoke, but to turn our country socialist and the things Obama would do. While the media tries to play this down and act as though Republicans are losing the election and losing their cool, I would like to add that I’m outraged as well. Americans that love their country, will not surrender their freedom nor their children and grandchildren’s futures to socialists. If anyone in the Congress or the mainstream media doubts that the American people are beyond angry, they better think again.
Liberal media is sadly mistaken in their assessment of all of us across this country. Don’t count us out ever. We were born of American pride. Our Uncles, Fathers, husbands, wives, sons and daughters, cousins and frienids didn’t sacrifice and die for us to throw this country and our freedom away to a Muslim Terrorist nor are our troops fighting in Iraq and Afganistan for us to elect a domestic terrorist.
I’m glad that crowd was fired up! It was awesome to watch.
We are united in stopping The One from ever stepping foot in the White House. I think the pollsters are underestimating Republican and Conservative turnout. They think we are staying home. But we will come out in mass numbers, and like John McCains own mother once said, hold our nose and vote for John McCain.
It’s stop B. Hussien Obama and deal with John McCain later.

Until last month, the clock had enough digits to measure US debt levels

US debt clock runs out of digits
BBC News
The US government’s debts have ballooned so badly the National Debt Clock in New York has run out of digits to record the spiralling figure.
The digital counter marks the national debt level, but when that passed the $10 trillion point last month, the sign could not display the full amount.
The board was erected to highlight the $2.7 trillion level of debt in 1989.
The clock’s owners say two more zeros will be added, allowing the clock to record a quadrillion dollars of debt.
Douglas Durst, son of the late Seymour Durst – the clock’s inventor – hopes to replace the Manhattan clock with its lengthier replacement early next year.
For the time being, the Times Square counter’s electronic dollar sign has been replaced with the extra digit required.
For its part, the digital dollar symbol has been supplanted by a cheaper version – perhaps a sign of the times for the American economy.
Some economists believe the $700bn bail-out plan for ailing US financial institutions could send the national debt level to $11 trillion.
