Voting for McCain solely because he is white probably is racist, because what other reason would you have other than you don't want a black person to be president or you think a white person would be better?

- paintgrl, on 10/31/2008, -1/+19I am white and voting for Obama. Guess what, it has nothing to do with the color of his skin. Obama is a real leader and his policies on energy, taxes and the war are the main reasons I am voting for him. I think that is the main reason most people who vote for him are doing so, no matter what the color of their skin. To assume to know a persons motivation based solely on their looks is prejudice. I am sure there are people on both sides voting on color, but I think it is a small percentage. I hope America has come a long way since the 60's and Jim Crow.

- skinny01, on 11/01/2008, -1/+7But the evangelical brainwashing has them thinking that they can make things go there way. The black brainwashing has taught them that it doesn't matter what they do, it's always going to turn out bad for them, they can't make a real difference. The stereotypical evangelical brainwashing train of thought at least leads to action which is how bushes get elected. The stereotypical black brainwashing train of thought leads to inaction, complacency and low esteem which mentally keeps them right where they are with little hope of being uplifted from the mental shackles without needing someone else to pull them up. That's what society does and those are the ramifications of the years of oppression that makes it difficult to "just get over it and move on" when a group for the most part has been successfully taught that they can't ever succeed.

Think about it. If you're not black, then say you lived in, like, South Africa. You're surrounded by a majority of people who aren't your color, every single day. You're the minority. Well then, say there was an election, and a white man ran for president (or whatever they have there). You can't tell me that a little part of you wouldn't have an inkling to vote for the white guy, just because you can relate more to him. If you were oppressed in some way or felt you didn't have the same opportunities as the majority, you might also think that someone of your color being in charge could help bridge the divide.
It's not a matter of blindly voting for a person of your own race, since obviously there are black republicans voting for McCain. But at some level, and in some situation, it's going to affect your decision.- darkestunborn, on 11/01/2008, -2/+4Well said.

- senatorpjt, on 11/01/2008, -0/+3Yeah, tl;dr. You don't need to bother replying with that. Just read this paragraph and the next, but if you're going to bitch, read the rest.
Blacks are voting for Obama because he is "black" in the sense that he shares the common experience of being raised without the benefit of inherited wealth and social connections.
Of course, what nobody in America wants to admit is that racism doesn't even really exist. We like to blame racism, saying "others" are racist without having to admit the real truth - the idea of socioeconomic mobility and "anyone in the USA can make it if they work hard" is complete fantasy. It's just a matter of convenience for the rich, both black and white, that the poor people of every race believe that it is the poor of another race that are responsible for their own misery.
There has never been a "black/white" conflict, only a rich/poor conflict. I would be considered a "racist" if I said that "blacks are much more likely than whites to commit crimes." However, this is an incontrovertible fact, just as much as "You are more likely to die from drowning after eating ice cream." Of course, ice cream doesn't make you drown - people eat ice cream in the summer, and people swim in the summer, and swimming increases your chances of drowning. It's not because they're black, it's because they're poor - poverty leads to increased criminality which makes complete sense from a logical point of view, as much as being in water leads to increased drownings.
The idea that hard work leads to success in this country is a joke. A hard working man, black OR white, raised in poverty has a better chance of winning the lottery than even making a comfortable living through mere hard work and determination. The only reliable path to success in America is having wealthy parents, period. Of course, it does happen, just like the lottery is one. It's hard to name enough to fill a hand. (Someone shouts "Oprah Winfrey!") Even harder if you don't count entertainment figures. (Same person gets a headache. I thought of one for the next paragraph.)
Bill Clinton is sometimes referred to, jovially, as "America's first black president." Obviously, he is not ethnically black, but I think this notion arises from his modest upbringing, which makes him have dealt with more struggles in common with the overwhelming majority of black Americans. Even so, Clinton's stepfather was much more wealthy than most black families (small business owner) - it becomes relative when compared to the succession of heirs that have served as president over the history of America. One could also look at Abraham Lincoln, another president who most would say wasn't all bad for the blacks.
Of course, it would be far more controversial than Obama's proposal to merely return the top income tax brackets to their pre-2000 levels, but I think a far more constructive proposal would be restricting inheritance. Not a percentage, a cap on inheritance. The main complaint of Republicans is that Obama wants to "punish people for being successful" and I can sort of understand that - if you started from nothing and became a billionaire through hard work and determination you deserve every dime of it. However, if you become rich by waiting for your parents to die, you deserve nothing. Judging by his past advertisements ("Biggest celebrity in the world"), I'd like to see McCain try to explain why Paris Hilton deserves a billion dollars. Conrad Hilton, yes. He deserved a billion dollars. He started out buying a single inn and turned it into a successful worldwide hotel chain. Sam Walton? Sure. His kids? Not so much. Nepotism, however, has never been an "American value", at least in spirit. It certainly is, in practice.
That is why "socialism" and "income redistribution" is fundamentally MORE fair. It would take more thought to work out a system where those who become successful on merit are allowed to enjoy the full rewards of their success while preventing the accumulation of "old money", but it seems like an achievable goal. If you believe success and reward should be based on individual worth, it makes logical sense that the only way you can determine which individual is more worthy is to give both of them the same opportunities and see who takes them. If every child born in this country has enough food to eat, adequate health care, and an opportunity to compete for educational opportunities based solely on intellectual merit at every level, those with the aptitude will rise to the top, and those who had achieved access to opportunity merely through inherited wealth will also take their deserved positions as fry cooks at the local diner.

Some kids came to my door for trick or treat. So I open the door, with candies ready. The girl looked at me, turn away. I was totally surprised. Other kids followed. I heard one asked why. She said "chinese".
She belongs to a minor race too. I don't want to say what it is because I don't want people to look down on that race. However, most other people the same race as her didn't do that and they took the candies, and nicely said thank you. So it's not her race.

Sure voting for someone on the basis of race is racist. But that doesn't mean it's illegal. If racism was illegal we'd need a lot more jail space in America.
"what exactly does it have to do with one race being superior over another?"
I think that's a poor definition of racism if that is how you're using it. Racism isn't always about superiority. It's about looking at someone, seeing the color of their skin and suddenly believing you know everything there is to know about them -- what their hopes, dreams and motivations, etc. are. That's racism. It doesn't have to be about superiority at all.
In this case, the author of the email saw a bunch of black guys in a group and started to draw wild conclusions when the reality is -- he knows nothing about any of them. - TSK05, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1"Sure voting for someone on the basis of race is racist. But that doesn't mean it's illegal. If racism was illegal we'd need a lot more jail space in America."
The email never implied any of it was illegal. I didn't either. So I am not sure where you're going with that.
"I think that's a poor definition of racism if that is how you're using it."
Well, I looked it up on google. Your definition is too broad, "believing you know everything there is to know about them" - that's not racism, that's stereotyping. And he did not say that every single black person was voting for Obama because he was black. He said some, and that's a completely accurate assessment. And EVEN if it was completely inaccurate it's still not racism - he's not saying they are voting for Obama because they are an inferior race or some other type crap, he's saying it's because they are black and he's black - that's not racism, it's a fact of life that in general, people associate with others they have things in common with. - Blacksoth, on 11/03/2008, -0/+1"Your definition is too broad, "believing you know everything there is to know about them" - that's not racism, that's stereotyping."
No, it's more specific if anything. Racism is stereotyping on the basis of race. You can't base a defintion solely on a result; racism is an action regardless of result.
"The email never implied any of it was illegal. I didn't either."
Some people shared the opinion (not specifically this thread) that this kind of thing maybe/should be illegal (I merely reiterated the fact that it currently isn't -- by way of racism or any other reasoning). I didn't make any comment to the fact that you shared that opinion.
"he's not saying they are voting for Obama because they are an inferior race or some other type crap, he's saying it's because they are black and he's black - that's not racism, it's a fact of life that in general, people associate with others they have things in common with. "
Yes, it is racist. He's implying that they are voting for him only on the basis that he's black and not that they believe he's the better candidate. There's nothing wrong with showing support for people that you like but when you're talking about the leader of your country (or any other position of responsability) most intelligent people want the person that will do the best job. Why do you think there are so many white people that are supporters of Obama? Why aren't white supporters asked whether they support him because he's black? Are you assuming white people have a good reason but black people don't? Are you assuming that white people are all being tricked and are of low intelligence?
Any way you cut it, it comes from a racist line of reasoning.

It's the only way to show these ignorant racists that "TRUE AMERICANS" are NOT listening to a word coming out of their hate filled mouths.
That being said, President Obama can not fix the incredible mess the GOP/BUSH years have made of our country, by himself. We must vote for a honest, intelligent and hard working Congress and Senate into power, to help him.
-If the first words out of a candidates mouth is God...vote them out of office. They belong in a church, not our government.

How about "If a politician can only justify their actions with something along the lines of 'because God says so' vote them out of office." I don't mind if a politician is religious, so long as they realize their religion should stay separate from their government, and that using their religion to justify their actions is never sufficient. I wish American politics would just start considering religion as something that is private to the individual, but I know we can't since it's pretty clear that some religious politicians can't keep their faith separate from their government decisions.- EricSchC1, on 11/01/2008, -0/+5While I agree with you, I think when he said "If the first words out of a candidates mouth is God...vote them out of office", he was speaking more metaphorically.

No matter how many names they throw at Obama, they still seem to have trouble recognizing that in the eyes of many people, the Republican party has failed the country. And the persistent negative campaigning, which basically says, "Well, he is even worse than we are," confirms this feeling.
Obama is not a socialist and even less a communist or Marxist (have they ever spoken to a Marxist?). His presidency will not turn the US into a People's Republic, no matter how many times they try to imply it.In times of crisis, the country needs a stable, cool hand at the helm.

It's good to see a foreign perspective from somebody from a country that actually has a socialist party. - bombula, on 10/31/2008, -0/+15It's insane that we still think of socialism as such a dirty word. Most people have not a clue what socialism really is. Loosely defined, socialism exists whenever governments control property or production of any kind. So guess what? We pay taxes and the government does stuff with them, so WE are socialists. There's a wide spectrum, but we're definitely on there. There are, however, better points on the spectrum. The Scandinavian countries are kicking everyone's ass by every metric - literacy, health, crime, education, you name it - and they ARE socialists.
- EricSchC1, on 11/01/2008, -0/+10A lot of Americans think "Muslim" is a dirty word too. Only thing more dangerous than racism is racism cross-bred with religious bigotry. (Mind you, I'm atheist.)

A monarchy implies royalty. A monarchy implies leaders based on lineage. A republic implies that the people of the nation have impact on government.
Aside from that, even though the United States is(are?) a constitutional republic, it is still a democracy. When people say "The USA isn't a democracy, it's a republic!" they are thinking of an "direct democracy" also referred to as anarchist democracy because it is basically a system of mob rule. Specifically, we are a representative democracy which is technically a form of republic.

By Abigail Van Buren
Dear Abby: Two weeks ago, out of the blue, my middle-aged neighbor, 'Ed,' brought over a bushel of apples from his tree. He told me he didn't want them to go to waste, and he wasn't going to do anything with them. I told Ed I didn't want them, but he left them with me anyway.
Reluctantly, I spent my days off peeling, coring and cooking them into batches of apple crisp, pies and jam. I gave away all of the items to friends and family and saved one pie to give to Ed.
When I took it over to him, he said, "Is that it? What did you do with all the rest?" When I told him I had given everything else away, Ed got upset and said he should have gotten more because they were his apples.
I am furious. I didn't want, ask for or need those apples in the first place. I worked hard preparing them, and the last thing I expected was for my neighbor to be so ungrateful. Am I overreacting? I seriously want nothing more to do with the man.
— Offended In Appleton, Wis.
Dear Offended: Once your neighbor gave you the bushel of apples, they were yours to do with as you chose. While it would have been generous of you to have given him a sample of each of the items you created with them, you were under no obligation to do so. To hold a grudge against this presumptuous man is a waste of time, so let it go. Something tells me he won't burden you with his apples again anytime soon.

I SEE CARLOADS OF FOLKS WITH OBAMA BUMPER STICKERS OBAMA SUPPORTERS COMING FROM THE INNER CITY TO CAST THEIR VOTES FOR OBAMA. THIS IS THEIR CHANCE TO GET A FOLKS WITH OBAMA BUMPER STICKERS PRESIDENT AND THEY SEEM TO CARE LITTLE THAT HE IS AT MINIMUM, SOCIALIST, AND PROBABLY MARXIST IN HIS CORE BELIEFS. AFTER ALL, HE IS FOLKS WITH OBAMA BUMPER STICKERS--NO EXPERIENCE OR ACCOMPLISHMENTS--BUT HE IS FOLKS WITH OBAMA BUMPER STICKERS.
I ALSO SEE YOUNG COLLEGE STUDENTS AND THEIR
PROFESSORS FROM USF PARKING THEIR CARS WITH THE
PROMINENT 'OBAMA' BUMPER STICKERS. THE

HISTORIC ELECTION WHERE THERE MAY BE THE FIRST
FOLKS WITH OBAMA BUMPER STICKERS PRESIDENT.

THE THREAT:
HERE IN TEMPLE TERRACE, FL OUR REPUBLICAN HQ IS
ONE BLOCK AWAY FROM OUR LIBRARY, WHICH IS AN
EARLY VOTING SITE.
I SEE CARLOADS OF BLACK OBAMA SUPPORTERS
COMING FROM THE INNER CITY TO CAST THEIR VOTES
FOR OBAMA. THIS IS THEIR CHANCE TO GET A BLACK
PRESIDENT AND THEY SEEM TO CARE LITTLE THAT HE IS
AT MINIMUM, SOCIALIST, AND PROBABLY MARXIST IN
HIS CORE BELIEFS. AFTER ALL, HE IS BLACK--NO
EXPERIENCE OR ACCOMPLISHMENTS--BUT HE IS BLACK.
I ALSO SEE YOUNG COLLEGE STUDENTS AND THEIR
PROFESSORS FROM USF PARKING THEIR CARS WITH THE
PROMINENT 'OBAMA' BUMPER STICKERS. THE
STUDENTS ARE ENTHUSIASTIC TO BE VOTING IN A
HISTORIC ELECTION WHERE THERE MAY BE THE FIRST
BLACK PRESIDENT.
THE COLLEGE PROFESSORS, PARTICULARLY IN THE SOCIAL
SCIENCES, FOR THE MOST PART HAVE LITTLE OR NO
EXPERIENCE IN THE WORK-A-DAY WORLD.
THEIR LIFE EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN MOSTLY ACADEMIC
UNDER THE TUTELAGE OF LIBERAL COLLEGE
PROFESSORS. FOR THEM, A LITTLE SOCIALISM AND ANTIAMERICANISM
IS A GOOD THING. AFTER ALL, IF
TERRORISTS ATTACK US, WE MUST HAVE DONE
SOMETHING TO PROVOKE THEM.
YOU AND I UNDERSTAND THE DANGERS THE POTENTIAL
OBAMA PRESIDENCY PRESENTS TO OUR WAY OF LIFE.
THE SUPPRESSION OF FREE SPEECH, INTRODUCING
UNION INTIMIDATION IN THE WORKPLACE, INCREASED
DANGERS TO OUR NATION BY TERRORISTS, CUTTING
OUR DEFENSE BUDGET BY 25%, TURNING OUR TAX
SYSTEM INTO A NATIONAL WELFARE SYSTEM AND
ECONOMIC POLICIES THAT COULD DRIVE US INTO A
DEPRESSION.
THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO
STOP OBAMA: VOTE !!!-------
(AND GET EVERYONE YOU
KNOW TO VOTE)
ONLY YOU AND I CAN STOP
OBAMA NOW ! !
SEVEN DAYS TO GO AND WE
MUST ACT IMMEDIATELY..
A PLAN OF ACTION FOR YOU AND I:
• VOTE. OBAMA IS ADVERTISING ON TV ASKING ALL
HIS SUPPORTERS TO TAKE A DAY OFF WORK OR
CLASS TO VOTE.
• CONTACT PERSONALLY EVERYONE YOU KNOW
REMINDING THEM TO VOTE AND HOW IMPORTANT
IT IS. PARENTS, VOTING-AGE CHILDREN, IN-LAWS,
CO-WORKERS, CHURCH CONTACTS, SCHOOL
CONTACTS, BUSINESS CONTACTS. MAKE A LIST AND
CONTACT THEM.
• SEND THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE ON YOUR EMAIL
LIST THAT WANTS TO DEFEAT OBAMA.
YOUR EMAIL IS AN EFFECTIVE TOOL IF YOU USE IT WISELY
AND PROMPTLY. YOU CAN REACH 10,000,000 PEOPLE IN
THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS IF AS FEW AS TEN PEOPLE ON
YOUR LIST TAKE PROMPT ACTION AND TEN PEOPLE ON
THEIR LIST AND TEN PEOPLE ON THEIR LIST...YOU GET
THE IDEA.
LET'S ALL PRAY AND WORK AND WE WILL SURELY
CELEBRATE OUR VICTORY ON 11/5/08.

His sig was probably written up for him and stored in his email app.
How pathetic.- gsadamb, on 10/31/2008, -5/+7It's clear that people who know proper grammar obviously have never worked a day in their lives, at least according to this anonymous bathroom *****.

Welcome to the new conservatism...
- sleazycheese, on 11/01/2008, -4/+2Well, the social sciences are pretty worthless.
- writie, on 11/01/2008, -0/+5Amazing that he has the gall to ask people to forward such inflammatory remarks. I thought maybe this was an off-the-cuff rant between friends after a hard day (they do happen). But no, he actually means all this and wants it to be spread around.
- mmoore81oak, on 11/01/2008, -0/+14"AFTER ALL, IF TERRORISTS ATTACK US, WE MUST HAVE DONE
SOMETHING TO PROVOKE THEM." at least that much is true- evilangela, on 11/01/2008, -0/+7I wouldn't say "must", I would say "may".
Unfortunately, there are too many people who seem to think that we as a country lack any responsibility for our actions. Strangely, they're often the same people who go on and on about how people should take personal responsibility for themselves. - regeya, on 11/01/2008, -0/+9Yeah, actually, even though he was being sarcastic...he's right. We did something to provoke them, repeatedly, and now we have dipsticks who not only try to claim it was an unprovoked attack, but trying to pull out of Iraq is forgetting that 9/11 ever happened.
MY GOD, WHEN DID THIS PARTY BECOME SO STUPID! The Republican party used to be a party to contend with, the party of men like Abraham Lincoln. Obama's party was the party of inbred rednecks--Klansmen used to lynch Republicans. Now, it's overrun with workaday Joes who, unfortunately, aren't the intelligent workaday Joes, but instead are the workaday Joes whose shoe sizes are greater than their IQs, and they're proud of the notion that their idiocy means they're not "elitist," because somehow being dumb and blindly following ideology is vastly superior to using your damn brain. Worked for the loyal Germans in the 30s, right?
They seem to believe that, despite an official DoD report showing no tie between Saddam Hussein and Al-Qaeda, somehow ending the fight in Iraq long after the original stated goals are completed is somehow dishonoring soldiers and forgetting the civilian lives lost in the World Trade Center--all the while counting the Veterans Administration as a social program when they talk about social programs needing to be cut.
And let's not forget they've been overrun by the "Christian" Right.
Friends, don't be an idiot. Even if you're Republican and have to vote for your heart, stand up for what you believe in, and stop allowing the party to deteriorate. That goes for the Democrats, too, who seem to want to give in to every whim of every special interest out there.
I guess a short way of putting it is that it's time for us to all do the right thing.

I know a lady who said she'd vote for obama but she's afraid he'd be assassinated. Retarded.- twiztidsinz, on 10/31/2008, -0/+14I am afraid of that too.. And you can be damned sure that Obama knows it as well. However, nothing is going to stop me from voting for him for one simple reason:
The danger he faces in being the first black President.
He's well aware of the danger, and yet he has the courage to stand up and face it boldly. In my eyes, it would be nothing less than an insult to him and his courage to NOT vote for him because you're afraid. - regeya, on 11/01/2008, -0/+3Same here. Hope we don't know the same lady! Personally I figure it'd turn him into a martyr and Biden would play the part of Johnson.
Also know a guy who believes in his heart that getting a college education makes you a liberal. Wow. Just wow. Next we'll be rounding up all the brown people and loading 'em onto trains to send 'em to work camps.- jraymilton, on 11/01/2008, -0/+2Given his propensity for spending tax money and expanding the size & scope of our already obese government, Biden's cut out to play a pretty good Lyin' B. Johnson. The only problem is that Dubya's spent the last 8 years apeing the same Texas liar when it comes to spending tax money and expanding the size of our already obese government...(And for the whiners, I voted against both the statist and the socialist.)

Excellent. - Depthfunction, on 10/31/2008, -0/+42I was more offended by what the email said about college professors and students. It's that sort of narrow, anti-intellectualism which is doing more harm to the long term interests of this country than any terrorist attack could.
- sleazycheese, on 11/01/2008, -1/+2Not sticking up for his comments, but I understand his sentiment on the social sciences, somewhat. Students taking a certain sociology course at my university were given extra credit to take part in protests after the "Don't Tase Me, Bro" incident.
I cannot respect someone whose major requires nothing more than a pulse to graduate.- Weatherwaxx, on 11/01/2008, -1/+3Because... obviously, participating in one's society is a bad thing?
- Weatherwaxx, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1Yes, but the good thing -- that means that the IQ is generally higher on our side and dumber on theirs.

I'm white and I voted for Obama too. Here's my ballot:
http://members.cox.net/shadowman99/webversion2.jpg - BossKey, on 10/31/2008, -4/+11Shouldn't be happy that blacks are voting for a half-white man instead of a black man?
- honeybrass, on 11/01/2008, -0/+4You may be surprised to learn they lack that option. Options are generally not appreciated in the electoral system
- Weatherwaxx, on 11/01/2008, -0/+2No - they aren't happy that black people are voting at all. These throwbacks think that if Da South had won, they'd all be plantation owners. Idiots. The south had just as many poor whites as enslaved blacks, and they weren't much better off.
- MAJX, on 10/31/2008, -30/+3Please only vote once. Cheating destroys democracy and our country. You will reap what you sew.
- killtr0city, on 11/01/2008, -0/+3It's "sow" you fool.
- GumshoeMike, on 11/01/2008, -0/+2Yea, I hate it when Republicans try to cheat with voting registrations:
http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/10/20/republican ...
Sadly, you're just anther deluded fool who gets his "news" from right-wing radio or Faux News.
"According to a recent analysis by Lorraine Minnite, an expert on voting crime at Barnard College, (as quoted in Rolling Stone by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Greg Palast), federal courts found only 24 voters guilty of fraud from 2002 to 2005, out of hundreds of millions of votes cast. "The claim of widespread voter fraud," Minnite says, "is itself a fraud.""
From the mouth of a GOP Attorney General:
http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/2363832 ...
"They wanted some splashy pre-election indictments that would scare these alleged hordes of illegal voters away," says David Iglesias, a U.S. attorney for New Mexico who was fired in December 2006. "We took over 100 complaints and investigated for almost two years — but I didn't find one prosecutable case of voter fraud in the entire state of New Mexico."
The *ACTUAL PROBLEM* is illegal purging of legit voters, which has been proven true *thousands of times*, including, ironically, the supervisor of elections in Las Vegas:
http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/2363832 ...
So, MAJX, I expect your next post will be about how outraged you are that corrupt government officials with a political bias have knowingly removed legitimate voters from the rolls. Waiting...
- nmanguy, on 10/31/2008, -20/+3Racist, but true.
- ObamAmerican48, on 11/01/2008, -0/+3Using that logic, it's quite easy to conclude that all of the people voting for McCain are voting for him because he's white.
- damntourists, on 10/31/2008, -4/+15wow, i'm not black and this hurts my feelings a bit.
- EricSchC1, on 11/01/2008, -0/+12I'm not black either, but I was gonna say this is downright embarrassing.
- poprocksandsoda, on 11/01/2008, -3/+2Yeah, let's not block illegals from socialist and communist countries from voting in our elections. Let's have everyone vote!!
- EricSchC1, on 11/01/2008, -0/+3No, I'm referring to actual citizens. Carloads of black people voting doesn't constitute "illegals from socialist and communist countries". Unless you mean that blacks are by default "illegals", which would make you a bigger *****-ass than David Storck.

- poprocksandsoda, on 11/01/2008, -3/+3Iloveobama, as you go to sleep tonight read about the Civil Rights Bill of 1964 ... where your Democrats blocked passage of the Civil Rights bill for 57 days by filibustering ... Al Gore Sr. was one of those racist southern congressman ... as you think about that also remember that Hollywood Barack wouldn't be where he was if he wasn't raising funds for the DNC. It's all about cash. Notice how they have 300 million left and they are still raising money. That will go to bail out hank clinton and fund other DNC efforts. To me the DNC is like a plantation owner and Barack Obama is picking cotton in the form of donations. If he wasn't getting enough $ from donations they would have gotten HAnk Clinton in. They let her hang around until the last second just in case.

In 1964, the Democrats filibustered for 57 days to block a civil rights bill that would change how people of color and women are treated ... the party of racism is the Democratic party. Make no mistake, if Barack wasn't raising lots of donations they would have gotten Hillary in. Notice how they let her hang around until the end just in case.
- poprocksandsoda, on 11/01/2008, -3/+3Yes digg me down aholes. Hide the truth because the truth hurts doesn't it? You will never let the truth see the light of day this election. Hollywood spent 700k on his little Europe speech ... but it's all good right? Hollywood Barack flew to Hawaii with his friends and family on your $. When's hollywood sending you to Hawaii and Europe? Never. Enjoy the next 4 years of broken promises like "I will fund the campaign using government funds".

Yeah, because out current leader was so about free speech.- eryximachus, on 11/01/2008, -4/+2The only party advocating state censorship is the Democratic Party. Google the "fairness" doctrine.
- jraymilton, on 11/01/2008, -0/+2Only if you'll google what the current ***** in chief did to Howard Stern WITH MY TAX MONEY, while Oprah was talking on afternoon TV (hint: the kids are home!!) about the definition of "a rainbow party" with 0 consequences. Some pigs are more equal than others.
Look, if Democrats get a "fairness" doctrine, they're likely to be just as stupidly-unfair to fatass conservative talk radio hosts as the Nepotism administration was to Howard, but don't try to talk like Bush-league was a paragon of free speech around the likes of me, or you're likely to see another factual smackdown like this one. - eryximachus, on 11/02/2008, -0/+2jraymilton:
Trust me, the only people who will receive a smackdown are nihilists like yourself. If you honestly believe Howard Stern will be a motivating force in the future revolution coming your way, welp - good luck at the front.
There is a world of difference between censoring offensive content, the likes of which Howard Stern spews into our culture, and speech that directly pertains to the political sphere.
The culture war is coming, and I'm sorry to say that you will be on the losing side. Enjoy your "freedom" and corrupt culture while you have it, sucker.

- Terasiel, on 11/01/2008, -0/+3I'm assuming their only vote for Samuel L Jackson.

- Aorawn, on 11/01/2008, -0/+15Just goes to show how alive racism still is in America. It's ugly, Storck, not to mention you just labeled yourself and your party as racists and bigots to anyone who didn't already know.
- dreamweaver1984, on 11/01/2008, -7/+2its not as Alive as you think, most of the rasist comments are coming from the far left that think its racist if u dont vote for obama-- how ignorant
- mrseptic, on 11/01/2008, -0/+7You call someone ignorant, yet you lack basic spelling and grammar skills.
- Aorawn, on 11/01/2008, -0/+6I'm not calling anyone out for being racist because they're not voting for Obama, I'm calling Storck out as racist because of this line: "After all he is black- no experience or accomplishments but he is black."
He is implying that because he is black, he has made no significant accomplishments in his life and has no experience. And the "He's black, what did you expect?" inference is not missed either. - dreamweaver1984, on 11/02/2008, -0/+21 person does not face an entire group of people. in short- its terrible that this one person is so ignorant, but saying that it shows that a decent amount of people are is irrelevant and untrue.
- Weatherwaxx, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1Yeah, but the pity is, he's proud to be a racist. So was Hitler.

- wshwe, on 11/01/2008, -2/+9This is yet another example of outright Republican racism!
- poprocksandsoda, on 11/01/2008, -3/+3The race card is old wshwe. I'm a Republican and not a racist. Funny how challenging someone's citizenship is racist. I'm an American and the last thing I want are a bunch of illegals changing the course of our country. If America votes Obama in so be it ... but if illegal immigrants are voting McCain, Obama ... I don't care ... it should not be tolerated.

Audio Interview with the top Obama researcher in US

An American living in Indonesia has media denied research on Obama

Research laid out by topic;

Obama's minions accost a citizen.
A small time press guys respectfully asks to be recognized from the floor.
He then requests that the Town Hall meeting be started with the Pledge (as is always correct).
Obama says 'Sure" and thanks the guy.
Then the true believers go after him.

I am certain that there are some misguided conservatives that do these things
but does it not prick any liberals conscience to note that;
- Almost all of the police reports of campaign signs being stolen are conservative signs?
- Almost every incident of vandalism to campaign headquarters or activists homes are against conservatives?
- Nearly every single politics related assault across the US was done to a conservative?
- When viewing open (non-party related) political forum such as DIGG, Yahoo, etc easily 80% to 90%
of the blatant abuse and and hatred is voiced by liberals.
- That over 90% of the inane wingnut articles accusing a candidate of things that are
either already known to be false or are absurd on their face (and soon are proved false
are posted by liberals. (Search 'Palin' on DIGG for example).
When you see around you this seething vicious irrational response
to other points of view, does it not concern you that perhaps there might be a problem.
That your fellow travelers might signal some serious problems?- cuatez, on 11/01/2008, -0/+6It's been 8 years. I'd be angry too.
- regeya, on 11/01/2008, -0/+6Most Republicans aren't conservatives. They think they are, but they've confused "racist thug" with "conservative."
- voxlisa999, on 11/01/2008, -0/+6You are a sick liar. You can't have it both ways. Either liberals are "violent & hateful" or "weak doves, peaceniks, and treehuggers." You can't have it both ways. REPUBLICANS impeached a DEMOCRATIC President for a sexual liaison, surely if Democrats were so violent,



What is Digg?
