    MCCain does not need to attack Rev. Wright, pardon me for referring to this lunatic as a Reverend. Fox news put the story out, we saw it and it left a bad impression immediately. I say Fox News needs to increase the frequency of showing Wright's crazy statements just to remind people of what a nut he is and that he was Obama's Spiritual Advisor for 20 YEARS. Dah!

      HOLA! MAKE SURE AN INCLUDE PALINS VIDEO OF WHEN SHE WAS BEING CLEANED FROM WITCHCRAFT BY THE WITCHCRAFT MINISTER. AND ALSO DO NOT FORGET TO INCLUDE THE STATEMENT SHE MADE WHEN SHE WAS MAKING A SPEECH IN A CHRISTIAN CHURCH RELATING TO THE PUBLIC THAT THE WAR IN IRAQ WAS PART OF GOD'S PLAN. DO NOT TAKE ME WRONG: PALIN IS NOT STUDPID,

      MAYBE THAT IS WHY McCAIN DOES NOT WANT TO BRING OUT THIS TOPIC. IT WILL BACK FIRE IN HIS FACE! IT WILL ALSO SHOW HOS DESPERATE HE HIS CAMPIGN IS.

        Witchcraft? Thin, lame and insignificant. I remember being blessed once by a voodoo something-or-other once while in Cancun. It was harmless and all in fun. Being mentored for 20 years and even married by a racist maniac who thinks, among other absurdities, that the government and the kKK jointly plotted to get blacks imprison for drug use.... now that's another story!

          If Palin's video witchcraft is lame, then so is Rev. Wright's video. PS The MC camp is in a desperate and self-destructive mode. Not pretty but I am going to milk it.

      Well you should ask McCain how palling Gordon Liddy, Pastor Hagee, Keating five, Mustafa Abu Naba'a, Ali Jawad, Oliver North, John Singlaub and U.S. Council for World Freedom, Kemper Marley, Don Diamond, Marylin Shannon have shaped his views.

      What about his association with segregationist senators and ex- KKK like Byrd, has that make him a segregationist as well? Good question to ask, maybe you should just assume like you are doing with Obama, why not?

      And what about Sarah and Todd Palin membership with Alaska Independence Party ??? the party of anti-American Joe Vogler What is Todd s influence as husband and shadow governor getting involved in her job and policies. And Sarah s friend Mark Chryson and Steve Stoll members of the AIP as well. Let s assume as well that they have influence her being friends for so many years, no?

    Who "Joe the plumber" may be is not the issue, though it's easy to see why the Dems want it to be. That's because the real issue is what Obama's comments to him revealed about Obama. In the exchange with "Joe the plumber" we find out that Obama really is as radical as his early political acquaintances, Davis, Ayers, Wright, etc., and that he is into the failed economic policy of wealth redistribution. Obama's tax and spending plans alone would be bad enough, but add Reid and Pelosi to the mix, with the three of them controlling both houses of Congress and the executive branch without any effective restraint, and you have something that should causes concern even among moderate Democrats.
    See Wall Street Journal: A Liberal Supermajority:

    http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122420205889842989.html

    And whether McCain won or lost the third debate is also not relevant. He succeeded in the first half hour to plant the seeds of a Reagan style wipeout. Reputable historians and economists overwhelmingly agree that the taxation imposed by Hoover and FDR, and the "stimulus" spending and public works programs of FDR, actually deepened and prolonged the Great Depression. It was the production demands of WWII that got the economy going again. And when the war was over, the economy promptly went into recession.

    See e.g. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/10/03/opinion/main4499465.shtml
    And
    http://newsroom.ucla.edu/portal/ucla/FDR-s-Policies-Prolonged-Depression-5409.aspx

    Point is, Obama's programs are to tax, and it does not really matter who he taxes, those taxes are going to be passed through the economy. He has to tax, because it is they only way he can pay for his massive social engineering experiments. Any first year economics student knows that taxation is a tool used to contract an economy experiencing inflation, because it reduces demand by reducing the amount of money individuals and businesses have to spend. It is contractionary, which is exactly what you do not want to do when the problem is that the economy is contracting already into recession. Like Hoover and FDR, Obama's plans will only make it worse for longer.

    "Press Releases

    AJC Strongly Condemns Rev. Jesse Jackson???s Comment on American Jews
    October 14, 2008 - New York - The American Jewish Committee (AJC) has condemned the Rev. Jesse Jackson's statement about "Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades."
    "Rev. Jackson's remarks, which appeared in an interview with the journalist Amir Taheri in today's New York Post, echo classic anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about Jewish power," said AJC Executive Director David A. Harris. "This statement, regrettably, is not the first troubling comment by Rev. Jackson regarding Israel, Zionism and the Jewish people.

    Arguing as a private citizen that an Obama administration could bring significant change to U.S. foreign policy, Jackson was quoted as saying that "Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades" would lose much of their influence should Senator Obama be elected president."

    And people are upset about what some in the crowd are saying at Palin events? Isn't this the same Democrat leader who once called New York "Hymietown" ?


  • Posted By: Sam10 @ 10/21/2008 9:53:13 PM

    I think McCain should use the reverend. But, like me, he is stumped on why the American people can't see the forest for the trees. I'm sure McCain is thinking, how on earth could anyone think that a first time senator, with no foriegn experience, no executive experience and no judgement to base his instincts on. How could anyone side with Obama. Look at his record. Look at his family relations so you can see how he will lead (Raila Odinga - in Kenya). And just like Joe Biden likes to say, if he likes being around with terrorists, if he likes being around radicals, if he has friends that are business frauds. Well. Joe Biden is right on that one. Then so is Obama.

    I don't agree with you on McCain's motivation for not going after Obama on Wright. I think he is thinking of all the tape out there of him with Hagee and Parsley and of Palin with the Jews for Jesus guy and the weird one from Africa who was after witches. I think that McCain would do anything to win and lost his honor way back there.

    The whole socialism thing is a sham. After all, who proposed nationaizing the whole banking system? McBush! The Repubs just have to bring a new bogeyman into the picture to keep the base riled. They cannot understand the economy, but by God, they can rant about socialists until their hair falls out. Obama's plans are no more soclialist than McCain's are fascist. Before this it was Obama's associations. Just like this new socialism tactic, Obama's associations were no more corrupt than McCain's associations (the vitriolic and anti-Isralei Rev. Haggee, crime boss Joe Bonnanno, bank scandal-meister Charles Keating, convicted criminal Gordon Liddy, or even ACORN, whom McCain lauded at their convention in 2006). Sad.

      You can just vote for Obama...Then all your worries will be gone...Have him pay your mortgage, medical/dental insurance..empty promises that Obama will NOT keep. Barney Frank had an Idea...Why dont we just go lax on our rules for home loans, you know, just make it so EVERYONE can get home loans....That way all ppl who are Americans and lower to middle income earners that cant even pay their electric bills can get homes to..What could possibly go wrong?....

    The difference between McCain's religious supporters and Obama's Spiritual Mentor? Some thoughts gathered from others:

    When McCain's own pastor of 20 years equates the U.S. policy of constructive engagement in South Africa to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, then you've got an argument.

    When the man who baptized McCain's children accuses the government of supplying drugs to urban black youth in an elaborate KKK-backed conspiracy to imprison black people, then you've got an argument.

    When McCain's personal mentor, from whom he took the title of his book, claims the United States Government is run by the KKK and that same government created the AIDS virus for the purpose of black genocide, then you've got an argument.

    McCain had supporters, Obama had a spiritual mentor. There is a world of difference between the two.

  • Posted By: Pocolodi @ 10/21/2008 9:22:53 AM

    In a "Mark my words speech," Joe Biden guarantees a "Major international crisis" within 6 months of Obama's election. He says Obama's youth and inexperience will be tested, and he doesn't know the outcome! Just what we need while were in the middle of two wars and an economic crisis....

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ymy0Woaz81U

    Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright agrees with Sen. Biden that it is a 'statement of fact' that terrorists will test Sen. Obama within first six months of his presidency.

    Feel safer now?

    • Posted By: PiaT @ 10/21/2008 9:51:06 AM

      How many months was it after Pres. Bush was in office that terrorists tested him? How did he respond to the attacks? He invaded a country that had nothing to do with 9/11! He has not captured Bin Laden and neither will MCain...so whatever you say Biden and Albright said about Obama being tested is nothing but more desperate nonsense coming from you, a desperate MC supporter.

      • Posted By: Pocolodi @ 10/21/2008 11:08:32 AM

        9/11 was planned and implemented during the Clinton years, but it was bush who was actually the first to retaliate, and they haven't hit us since. Regarding OBL, he cowered in Pakistan and is either dead or ineffective. No president in their right mind is going to invade an allied nation to get someone who, in all probability, is dead already.

        The point here is your VP nominee and former Secretary of State has said an attack is inevitable within six months of Obama taking power. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want that under any circumstances, but it's especially not welcome in the middle of two wars and the financial mess were in. Regarding your "desperate nonsense" comment, you're entitled to your opinion.

        • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 10/21/2008 11:32:14 AM

          Pres. Obama will be more than ready and equipped to defend the country fron any attacks in the future if he has to. Jealous MC supporters, are as usual, grasping at straws. As for Biden and Albright...it's obvious no one cares about what they supposedly said, because as you can see ,Obama's winning and MC is losing.

          • Posted By: Pocolodi @ 10/21/2008 11:43:13 AM

            More than ready? Even Biden said he didn't know what Obama will do. And besides, why invite an inevitable attack?

            Obama is ahead by a few points. Bush was behind by 11 at this point in his second election.

            What they "supposedly said?" You libs are so comical.... when it's something you don't like, even from your own candidate, then it's "no one cares!"

    What the heck does Wright have to do with our current economic crisis? Nothing! He hasn't caused our banking or home foreclosers meld downs, the lack of oversight has. There is an old saying: Don't look for 5 legs on a cat. McCain whats you to find issues that have no merit but only distract from you from the real issues at hand. Like: I am going broke!

    • Posted By: Pocolodi @ 10/21/2008 12:34:57 PM

      Blame the housing mess on Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. They're the two dems who blocked repeated Bush and McCain legislationg that would have reigned Fannie and Freddie.

      BTW, many take issue with the fact that Obama chose to be mentored for 20 years by a racist maniac who thinks, among other absurdities, that the government is run by the KKK. Extremely poor judgment at the very least. His VP has said Obama will have to use "good judgment" in the inevitable attack coming our way, within six months of Obama taking office. Now can you see our concern?

      • Posted By: Nins @ 10/21/2008 2:19:21 PM

        Pocolodi, Rev. Wright grew up in a time when the government in the South WAS run by the KKK. Blacks used to be lynched in public, with no charges of murder or terrorism being made against the perpetrators. 100 years after blacks were free in 1865, they still did not have the right to vote. And when the Civil Rights Act was signed into law in the 1960s, Southern communities put all kinds of other laws in place to block blacks from voting, eating in public restaurants or attending segregated schools.

        This is recent history. Even I, a middle aged white woman, remember seeing 2 water fountains -- one painted black and the other chrome. Heaven help the black person who drank from the white fountain. Reverend Wright is even older than I am. He lived this not as a white, but as a black, the one being told he was inferior. If he is angry still, or has sharper eyes for the remnants of racism in our society, I am not going to judge him for it.

        In fact, I am going to judge him on his works. On the fact that he served his country well, and even attended our President as a medical officer after the war. I'm going to judge him on the souls he brought to God, and the good works his church has done in it's community.

        And I fully agree with EggCross, this is all a smokescreen. McCain is desperate for people NOT to talk about the economy. So instead, he tries to stir up division and hate. That's not very Christian in my book.

        • Posted By: Pocolodi @ 10/21/2008 5:27:47 PM

          I despise racism in any form, and IMO it's time the Reverend Wright moved in that direction also. His ideas that the KKK runs the government and that the same government created aids for black genocide simply exacerbates the race problem. I don't see this as a smoke screen at all.

          I have problems with Obama being mentored by someone for over 20 years who feels this. To me, it is a direct reflection of his judgment skills for other issues. Nins, you're going to give both Jeremiah Wright and Barak Obama a pass, which is fine. Just don't expect me to do the same.

    Wisconsin GOP Official Denounces McCain Robocalls, Endorses Obama

    The first Republican woman State Senator in Wisconsin history announced on Tuesday that she would be supporting Barack Obama, in part because of the negative tone of the McCain-Palin campaign and, specifically, the use of "dishonorable" anti-Obama robocalls.

    "All of us should be extremely wary of the half truths and outright untruths that have been spread by the recent negative campaigning and shameful automated phone calls," said Barbara Lorman of Fort Atkinson. "While my admiration for Senator Obama has grown with his positive approach to addressing the challenges facing our nation, my disappointment with the McCain campaigned has deepened. The negative tactics are inappropriate, downright dishonorable and have no place in the State of Wisconsin."

    Before you buy in to McCain saying he is different than Bush, just remember:

    ACTIONS SPEAK THOUSANDS OF TIMES LOUDER THAN WORDS

    McCain, down in the polls with less than two weeks left is saying he is different than Bush. But, for the last eight years he has been with Bush almost all of the time.

    Now, in the final two weeks, he wants you to believe he is someone else. People just do NOT change that fast.

    HIS WORDS ARE JUST THAT, WORDS TO DUPE YOU AND PANDER FOR YOUR VOTE.

    if he gets elected, when this election is through:

    MCCAIN WILL BE THROUGH WITH YOU.

    He will be back to the McCain he was for the last eight years:

    - More for the oil companies
    - More for the top 5% of business
    - More for the already wealthy
    - More for the trickle down
    - More partisanship in Washington
    - More warrantless spying on Americans
    - More Isolation of the U.S. in the world
    - More Taxpayer money to Iraq
    - More oil dependency
    - Less for renewable energy ..
    - Less diplomacy and More war
    - ..
    - And, LESS FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS AND BELOW
    .

    YES, ACTIONS DO SPEAK THOUSANDS OF TIMES LOUDER THAN WORDS

    And for the last eight years, McCain has spoken very loudly.

    After 9/11, the US government started rounding up Muslims without cause and without due process of law, like we did to the Japanese Americans in WWII. The Bush administration called it's main internment camp Guantanamo Bay. While there are certainly many guilty terrorists held in Guantanamo, there are also many innocent American citizens who have been held illegally for years without even being charged with any crime. They have been tortured by our government. Some of them have died.

    Recently the Supreme Court ruled against the Bush administration in the matter of Guantanamo Bay. The Supreme Court Justices were NOT on the side of the terrorists. They were on the side of the Geneva Convention, that says you can not torture POWs, and on the side of US laws that state you can not imprison a person without charging them with a crime and bringing them to trial. I'm sure that like most Americans, the Justices who voted against the illegal, immoral doings at Guantanamo didn't feel sympathy for the terrorists. They felt sympathy for the laws of AMERICA, the land of the FREE, where even rat finks get a fair trial.

    Meanwhile, back in Iraq, the Bush administration is busy trying to build a smokescreen to hide the CRIMES they have committed. Those pesky weapons of mass destruction. Just think, the National Debt went up over 6 trillion dollars under Bush. More than 2 TRILLION of it went directly into the pockets of Halliburton, a corporation owned by the Cheney family. Halliburton is now a DUBAI corporation and therefore is not subject to US taxes. All that money they took out of the US Treasury is going into the coffers of a MUSLIM country.

    Did you hear about how the US government is being charged millions for Halliburton deliveries of sand into Iraq from Kuwait? Sand. Like there is a shortage of sand in Iraq? Another contractor shipped sand from Idaho to Iraq at our expense. Nobel prize winning economist Joseph Stiglitz discusses these and other excesses of our current government's out of control spending in Iraq.

    Your grandchildren will be working like slaves to pay off this debt, so that the Bushes and Cheneys can live the high life in Dubai.

    Yeah, they're patriots, Bush&Co. They wear flag pins. And hide the money they stole from America in Dubai.

    And they want me to believe that Obama is a socialist. Right.

    In case you think McCain is any different than Bush, watch this:

    The Muslim thing didn't work, The Farrakan thing didn't work, The Ayers thing didn't work, Now it's the Wright thing. Like Bush don't have a plan to get us out of this war, McCain doesn't have a plan for the economy. I think he should bring up the Wright thing, it will assure victory of Obama.

      People aren't paying attention to those FACTS????? HA!!! If that were true, the race wouldn't be nearly as close as it is...Obama just can't seem to get a huge lead...polls mean nothing...just wait till election day...NO ONE knows how people are going to vote until they go into the booth and vote. Polls of 1000 here and 1000 there are not reliable. Keep on dreaming and believe all the BS. I agree that McCain is not the candidate we would have hoped for, but he's a hell of a lot better than Obama...say what you want...I don't care...I think you've all lost your minds!

    Before you buy in to McCain saying he is different than Bush, just remember:

    ACTIONS SPEAK THOUSANDS OF TIMES LOUDER THAN WORDS

    McCain, down in the polls with less than two weeks left is saying he is different than Bush. But, for the last eight years he has been with Bush almost all of the time.

    Now, in the final two weeks, he wants you to believe he is someone else. People just do NOT change that fast.

    HIS WORDS ARE JUST THAT, WORDS TO DUPE YOU AND PANDER FOR YOUR VOTE.

    if he gets elected, when this election is through:

    MCCAIN WILL BE THROUGH WITH YOU.

    He will be back to the McCain he was for the last eight years:

    - More for the oil companies
    - More for the top 5% of business
    - More for the already wealthy
    - More for the trickle down
    - More partisanship in Washington
    - More warrantless spying on Americans
    - More Isolation of the U.S. in the world
    - More Taxpayer money to Iraq
    - More oil dependency
    - Less for renewable energy ..
    - Less diplomacy and More war
    - ..
    - And, LESS FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS AND BELOW
    .

    YES, ACTIONS DO SPEAK THOUSANDS OF TIMES LOUDER THAN WORDS

    And for the last eight years, McCain has spoken very loudly.
