RNC Misrepresents Obama Quote

That's easy, Ryan: voter fraud. An official indicted for corruption goes to jail. A kid killed in a riot goes to the morgue."

Racist republicans challenging the voting rights of minorities do so at their own peril.

I can't believe you actually blame Democrats for conditions the Republicans are actively fostering.

"You don't remember the cities on fire. Some of us do."

So the riots during the 60's were over voter fraud?

Not police brutality against minorities.

Not the assasination of Dr. King.

But voter fraud?

"Take some advice seriously. If the worst happens, sit down. As long as the SNCC was non-violent, they were winning. As soon as Abbie Hoffman convinced ten people to convince 100 people in 1000 people to throw rocks, heads rolled and Nixon was elected then reelected. King was killed. Bobby was killed. It wasn't all flower power and music. It was murder."

You're blaming King and JFK being killed for the Chicago riots at the Dem convention?

So, you know, we’re getting stampeded here to vote for something that doesn’t help homeowners, that doesn’t do anything about foreclosures, that doesn’t help those people who have been in bankruptcy and are looking for a way out. As a matter of fact, it made sure they can’t get out. So, who’s this for? It’s for speculators. It’s to play a game that provides some temporary help in the market, and, you know, you might see an uptick today if this passes the House. On the other hand, if it doesn’t, we need to be ready to find a way for Wall Street to address its problems without having to tap the increasingly diminishing resources of the federal taxpayers.

If McCain had shown good judgment when picking a VP, if he had not picked a mess of lobbyists to run his campaign, if he wasn't so gungho to start wars and if he was smart, I may have voted for him.

I've voted for Republicans (not for President, but for other offices). I just think McCain is dumb. I mean, not as much of dumb as Bush, but nowhere near the sharpest tool in the shed.

The man sees so focused on earmark reform, he has ignored the idea of real budget reform. Earmarks make up less than a percent of our budget. McCain could have saved far more money if he had redirected his energy from focusing on earmarks and put it on looking at the budget as a whole. But that's his focus. That's his niche. The big picture is outside of his purview.

Obama may have less experience, but the man has shown excellent judgment. I do not worry about an Obama administration. I know that his economic advisers will be top notch. I know that his foreign policy adviser will not be blinded by ideology and will be a top notch negotiator. I know that the people he appoints will be smart people who aren't lobbyists.

That's easy, Ryan: voter fraud. An official indicted for corruption goes to jail. A kid killed in a riot goes to the morgue.

You don't remember the cities on fire. Some of us do.

Take some advice seriously. If the worst happens, sit down. As long as the SNCC was non-violent, they were winning. As soon as Abbie Hoffman convinced ten people to convince 100 people in 1000 people to throw rocks, heads rolled and Nixon was elected then reelected. King was killed. Bobby was killed. It wasn't all flower power and music. It was murder.

Sit down. Protest is not about getting in their faces. It is about getting in their way. It isn't likely in my opinion but it is possible and the voter fraud is enough to light the match.

What Obama is telling you is wrong, dangerous and self-serving. DON'T get in their faces. Only an self-obsessed fool would tell you to do that. We pay a high price for that as Democrats, but
$1.2 trillion wasn't enough, I guess.

"A lack of faith in the electoral process signals an end of democracy as we know it."

So why are Republicans doing everything they can to undermine the faith in the election because they are losing?

"The vote must be sacrosanct."

Its a great ideal but the vote has been sullied in recent years with problems with touchscreen voting and people having their right to vote interfered with by Republican caging efforts.

"Widespread voter fraud on a national scale perpetrated by a well funded organization isn't just a crime, it's treason"

A few thousand fraudlent registrations with no proof that anyone actually voted?

You really consider that worse than a dozen Congressmen selling favors and contracts to the highest bidder?

Let me ask you this Woody,

Do you consider it more important for people to be able to exercise their right to vote as easily as possible or do you think restrictions on the voters should be in place to make sure voter fraud does not occur?

"It seems that there are mainly 2 reasons to vote for Barry; He's not white and he's not Republican."

Au contraire: behind the corporate curtain, he's both -- and mob-enhanced to boot.

"RealClearPolitics: Obama 301, McCain 237'

It seems that there are mainly 2 reasons to vote for Barry; He's not white and he's not Republican.

Well, yay, our possible next president thinks the economy is "fundamentally weak" I guess.

Yay, panic, yay, doom! Guess we will never get out of it without a helping hand always knocking on the door asking for another form.

"Obama seems to have 60% of the Jewish vote according to polls. Kerry polled at around 69% right before his election."

Yeah. Democratic saboteur Kerry was a GREAT president hahaha.

Oh this is even better:

Florida Polls:

PPP - McCain 46, Obama 49
FOX News/Rasmussen - McCain 47, Obama 47

Florida going to Obama is game-over territory. If Obama simply holds on to all the states he's leaning on right now and adds Florida, he's over 270. WI, MN, NC, VA, NH, MO and NV could all go for McCain and Obama would still win.

Ouch.

your absolutely right on Obama's support for Israel ..... Mr. Amnesia and his cultural references have some other agenda.

Mission Accomplished

"So what's the worse crime len?

Submitting fraudulent voter registration forms or taking bribes as a public official?"

The worse crime in my opinion is voter fraud in a landslide. We already have legalized bribery in the form of lobbying and campaign contributions. The ones who really flaunt it and break the rules eventually get caught and prosecuted.

A lack of faith in the electoral process signals an end of democracy as we know it. The vote must be sacrosanct. Widespread voter fraud on a national scale perpetrated by a well funded organization isn't just a crime, it's treason. The people who commit such crimes are domestic enemies of the constitution, in my opinion.

Wait, what's wrong with Obama's position on Israel?

There are 500 Rabbis endorsing him (they even have a website, rabiesforobama).

Then there's Rabbi Menachem Frohman, a founder of the Zionist settler movement in the West Bank settlement of Tekoa who not only endorsed Obama, but said he was the only hope for peace in the middle east.

Obama seems to have 60% of the Jewish vote according to polls. Kerry polled at around 69% right before his election.

Republicans are embarking on another divide the nation through race and conquer tactic:
they have distributed millions of cd's touting the scaremongering DVD "Obsession" that the Clarion Fund (McCain supporter) paid for distribution to dozens of newspapers across the country. Instances of anti-muslim violent acts have been reported.

Now they want to jump on ACORN, and push it using the race card. What about the predatory lenders that "steered" consumers into these bad sub-prime loans?

"It looks like we still have two separate and very unequal financial systems. One for the rich and one for the poor. One for whites, and one for everyone else. The banks created this situation when they abandoned our neighborhoods and opened the door for the loan sharks. Now we’re finding that these same banks are profiting from us through their financing or even ownership of these predatory lenders,” said ACORN National President Maude Hurd. “We know that many of the people who got subprime loans could have qualified for a lower cost mortgage, but instead they were pushed into a higher cost loan because the mortgage company saw an opportunity to make more money.”

When I drive through the suburbs, I see jplenty of foreclosed homes (350K and up) bought by folks who couldn't afford them, and those folks aren't minorities. Plus you have the flip and get rich crowd that flipped out when housing prices tanked.
And let's not forget the derivative and Credit swap instruments created on mortagages that are now worthless ( trillions of dollars worth). Can't blame that mess on minorities,
Why must republicans resort to race-baiting, divisive measures to win an election? That is just evil.

it was the Republicans
who started the ongoing Iraq war for oil.

What rock concert preceeded his speech?"

Barry has attack ad after attack ad playing on TV and Radio Nevada. I think in one he even blames McCain for causing Black Holes. McCain had better start responding.

you are correct, it was the Republicans

It's that fraud Obama, nominee of the hijacked Democrats, who's so hot to escalate in Afghanistan/Pakistan.

October is going to be one wild ride. I know all the 527's have been holding back as have both campaigns.

I'm sure we'll hear about the S&L crisis McCain was in the middle of. The McCain camp might bring out Biden's credit card ties (though he is the VP candidate so I'm not sure anyone will care).

The thing is, if this economic crisis gets worse, those attacks aren't going to mean much. No one will care. They'll just want someone they think can fix this mess.
