I think O’Bama will be waiting for his invitation to the Al Qaeda open house in Mosul before he’s ever going to belive that THEY’RE ALREADY THERE !!! Wake up you dumb black Irish!!!

You’ve got two candidates, neither of whom has a prayer of beating the Apostate Sheriff, John McCain. And now, Ralph Nader, the Republican’s Sweetheart of 2000 has returned for “Election Year at Ralph’s - Part II” to make sure the DEMs don’t win again. Ralph is out to make a point to you folks (just wait), and that is, if it were a smooth-talking blue-eyed Irishman O’Bama, nobody would be giving his ass the time of day. Hillary’s a tough, worn out old shoe, walked on, beat up, re-soled, full of holes and filth…. and 9 years later, the well still stinks from the piss of the Clintons and their infamous entourage. So, you’ll drink the tainted kool-aid and nominate Obama all right, but then what? Can you get the country to buy his excuses about his drug use (remember America’s first “black” president… “ ..but I didn’t’ inhale…”), his horrible Senate attendance record, his shamelessly ungrateful affirmative-action “free ride” bi*ch wife, his affairs and finances (… “I did not have sex with that woman…”) or his total lack of relevant experience? The country’s case of delirious Obamania will be over soon, thank God. How then are you going to feel about putting lipstick on your pig?? Don’t forget that endorsement from Louis Farakkahn, good as gold!!! That’ll wind the hearts of the undecided moderates, won’t it.?

Take a big step back. Have you stopped for a moment to consider what the rest of the world thinks of Obama. Remember, the rest of the world, where they can’t afford our tennis shoes, tattoos, or iPods and haven’t any understanding (or use) political correctness. It’s widely known, but seldom spoken, that traditional Asian cultures teach that biological Africans are a less evolved sub-species of homonids. Sad, but true. What about the Muslim world? Barack will say he is not a Muslim anymore, he abandoned the religion. Do you know how what the Kuran says about Muslims who have forsaken Allah to worship another god? Look it up! So, between the Asians and Muslims, fully half the worlds population will either consider our Democratic presidential candidate a genetically inferior sub-human, or they’ll want to kill him. Or both!! Great for Foreign relations, eh?

Forgetting world affairs and our responsibility as the sole surviving (and reluctant) superpower; here at home, if a Democrat wins, your taxes will go UP, the illegals will ALL become legal (and eligible for Medicare, SSI), your personal level of safety at home and abroad, will go DOWN, and freedom of religious expression for most Americans will be further impinged. What rational thinking person wants any of this???

So, you DEMs, try hard to polish your turd. All I can say is GOOOOO RALPH !!!! The Republicans should be funding this shenanigan of yours, if they aren’t already. Make us proud (again) !!! And I’ll be thanking the rest of you on November 8 for “Not Paying Attention”.

The half truths of the Democrats are breathtaking. I’m voting McCain in November.

Not true…look in the Library of Congress under the Congressional Record Issue: AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF MILITARY FORCE AGAINST IRAQ RESOLUTION OF 2002 — (House of Representatives - October 08, 2002)
Section of Record: House

“Whereas the current Iraqi regime has demonstrated its continuing hostility toward, and willingness to attack, the United States, including by attempting in 1993 to assassinate former President Bush and by firing on many thousands of occasions on United States and Coalition Armed Forces engaged in enforcing the resolutions of the United Nations Security Council;

Whereas members of al Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility for attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq;

Whereas Iraq continues to aid and harbor other international terrorist organizations, including organizations that threaten the lives and safety of American citizens;”

Congress and its own intelligence reports, independant of Bush, Cheney, or McCain briefings,
concluded the same, that Al Qaeda was in Iraq. It is also important to remember that foreign countries had their own independant reports as well as each individual member of congress usually hire their own intelligence gatherers. Not to mention, that defected Iraqi’s were also stating that Al Qaeda was in Iraq. Please read “Saddam’s Bombmaker” written in 1999 (before the anti-bush campaign led by liberals began) by Khidhir Hamza.

“Before he defected to the United States in 1995, Hamza was the director general of Saddam’s secret program to build a nuclear bomb, a three-decade effort that nearly succeeded. When he fled, Hamza took the secrets of the weapons program with him, disclosing them to the Central Intelligence Agency in detailed briefings and later going public with his story in interviews, lectures and TV appearances. For now, Hamza has the unusual distinction of being the highest-ranking Iraqi scientist ever to defect and live to tell about it.”

Now, all of a sudden, Obama is acting like he would have been much wiser than all of these hundreds of people and their hundreds of intelligence gatherers and the various other countries and their intelligence gatherers…that Obama would have definately seen right through all of these misfits and believed Saddam Hussein. Think People Think

Fact - Obama is a very liberal politician. Fact - He is not a Muslim. Fact - Obama is a practicing Christian. Fact - Obama is a long time member of a large black church in the Chicago area that teaches and follows a black separatist doctrine. Fact - Obama was educated at Ivy league schools and is a lawyer by education. Fact - Obama is a very good public speaker and debater. Fact - Obama has been a state legislator. Fact - Obama is a first time US senator. Fact - Obama has written a couple of books. Fact - Obama is a lawyer politician who has never had any experience at anything other than working in the public arena and law. Fact: Obama’s wife said in a speech that this is the first time that she is really proud of her country. Note - At the time I thought that was a slip of the tongue. Fact - Obama’s wife wrote a thesis in college lamenting that despite her achievements in life up to that point in time she would never be accepted as a member of society at large because she is black. Note: After checking this out I realized that Mrs. Obama’s comments in the speech mentioned above may not have been a slip of the tongue and that she more that likely still views herself as the victim of a racist US society.

Fact: I am a middle class male. Both my maternal and paternal grandparents were immigrants. One grandfather was a barber and the other worked in a brewery. Most of the ladies in the family worked in the garment industry. My father did not graduate from high school. He joined the army and stayed for 26 years. He eventually earned his GED while in the army. He and my mother raised a family of four children on an army sergeants pay. By the time I was sixteen the family had moved a total of 22 times, four of those moves were transatlantic (by slow moving military transport ships with voyages lasting ten straight days at a time). I was married at age 18 and a father by 19. My wife and I managed to raise two children and get them through college. Along the way my wife and I both managed to earn or college degrees. It took me ten years going to school part time whenever I could find the time. I spent my time in the military and got a job working for a corporation. For most of my life I have worked an average of ten hours a day and most weekends. My wife and I have worked very hard to support ourselves and our family. We do everything we can to make sure that we are contributing members of society and not a burden. We made sure that we met our obligation as parents to bring up children that once cut free from the apron strings were contributing members of society in good standing. Most of my friends and peers have similar stories to tell.
We are American citizens. Nobody in our family uses a hyphen to designate our ethnic, cultural, or racial origin. I don not feel guilty about who I am. I do not feel guilty about whatever happened relative to historical events in the United States prior to the arrival of my ancestors on US soil. I don’t owe anything to anyone and none of my fellow citizens owe me anything . My only obligation in this life is to continue to be a contributing law abiding member of society.

Based on my experience in life I don’t see how on earth Barak Obama can represent me as my president. He can not relate to who or what I am and I can not relate to who or what he is. Yes he is a smart, well educated man. But I can not find any common ground with a guy that for all all intents and purposes has never had to do a single day of really hard work. He is young and very inexperienced at anything other than being an articulate Ivy league lawyer- politician. His speeches do not inspire me. He has talked a lot about change, but he has not talked about the changes that I would like to see and most of those changes have to do with tangible issues (e.g. like reigning in a run away banking and financial system, putting an immediate stop to illegal immigration, cutting my tax burden, realistic solutions to energy dependence, finding a way to stop the flow of jobs out of the US, etc).

Barak has talked bout changing America block by block, county by county. Well, my block does not need to be changed. The block that needs to be changed is the block (and there are thousands like them across the US) where my father-in-law was robbed and assaulted. During the robbery his hip has broken and his health has been in steady decline ever since that event. Before the assault he was a proud, independent, self supporting and contributing member of society. Now he is in assisted living, barely able to stand up on his own and will likely be in a nursing home before the end of the year.

Mr and Ms Obama are correct in one thing. Hard working productive and self sufficient people in the United States are hungry for change, but I don’t think the change people like me are looking for can be met by Ivy league educated attorney politicians who don’t have to live and work out here where the rubber meets the road.

If there is confusion — and opportunity for political mischief — it derives at least in part from Obama’s rich cultural background. His mother was a white woman from Kansas, his father was Kenyan and he spent part of his childhood in Indonesia, a largely Muslim country.

“My grandfather, who was Kenyan, converted to Christianity, then converted to Islam,” Obama said Sunday. “My father never practiced; he was basically agnostic. So, other than my name and the fact that I lived in a populous Muslim country for four years when I was a child, I have very little connection to the Islamic religion.”

Obama has become careful in denouncing the links, lately noting that some rumors about him also have been insulting to Muslims. Jim Zogby, founder and president of the Arab American Institute, said many Arab Americans are drawn to Obama because of his cultural background.

“It is clear he wants to have a broader relationship with the Muslim world,” Zogby said. “He has a biography that connects him to the Muslim world.”

For those of us who call for the ending the war in Iraq by recalling our troops should understand that it only takes one party to start a conflict, but it takes more then one party to end it. These folks have been attacking us for the last THIRTY YEARS, and basically we did nothing about it until Bush 43. Ben Laden has stated his goal, destroy the Western Culture! If we pull back our ability to manuver is gone and the advantage swings to the enemy.
