In Montana GOP Radio Ad, Hank Williams Jr. Hits Obama for "Bitter" Comment
October 28, 2008 12:34 PM
Remember last April when Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., clumsily described economically struggling small towners as "cling"ing to guns, God, and bigotry?
Hank Williams Jr., does.
In a new radio spot airing in Montana, Williams says: "When Barack Obama said folks like you and me were bitter, and clinging to religion, I knew he just doesn't understand small town America," says Williams, adding: "We love our God, and we love our guns, 'specially handed down from our grandfathers. And we resent it when liberals like Obama question our way of life. Don't be bitter, vote McCain."
One has to say: Montana? What the hell are Republicans doing airing anti-Obama ads in Montana? Are they really worried those three electoral votes will go red?

If Barack Hussein Obama is elected POTUS, I'll be withdrawing my 401K as soon as the elections results are announced. I rather pay 15 percent penalty for early withdrawal than let him tax me on it. Then I'll retire from my job and let the government support me. Why work if Barack Hussein Obama is going to spread the wealth?

Obama supporters are a bunch of whiners who have selective hearing and eyesight.
Where was the outrage from you Obama supporters when CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, and internet sources declared open season on McCain/Palin campaign? The manner in which the media, Barack Obama, his campaign and you Obama supporters viciously attacked, slandered Gov. Palin, her husband and their innocent children the minute it was announced that she was the VP candidate. The media, Barack Obama, his campaign and you Obama supporters have been more vicious against Gov. Palin than Senator Hillary Clinton, because she's a Republican, pro-life, and you see her as a threat because she does not support your issues.
What about the way the media, Obama, his campaign, and you Obama supporters viciouly smeared, slandered, attacked the McCains, and Joe the Plumber?
If Americans knowingly aware of Barack Obama baggage vote for him and if he's elected, so be it, at least I will say that I did not vote for him. But don't cry or complain when he continues to go back on his word the way he has since the primaries against Hillary to the present.
Barack Obama's pastor associations with Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakan, Michael Pfleger, Jessie Jackson, and Al Sharpton. What true Christian believes in abortion/infanticide, same sex marriage, race-baiting, sexism, etc?
What true or practicing Christian pals around with these nut-cases who are unworthy to preach the word of God?
Barack Obama's radical, terrorist, and criminal associations with Frank Davis Marshall, Rashid Khalidi, Bill Ayers, Khalid Al-Monsour, Antoine Resko, his brother Odinga and his other siblings from Kenya, and who knows how many other radical corrupted associations.
Please people, wake up and be open-minded. You sound like if you're hypnotized. Research any of the above listed people and you will read that all of them are America haters, racists, and corrupt. They want to bring down America. Frank Davis Marshall was a poet and writer who mentored, brainwashed, poisoned and corrupted Obama from the age of 10 until he left to college against anybody who was not African-American. The irony is that Barack Obama's father was like 6% African blood, 47% from Sudan, 47% Somali, and that makes Obama more Arab (47%) than African (3%), and 50% whatever his mother was. As of today, I haven't heard what ethnicity Obama's mother was. Everything is a mystery about Barack Obama.
If you Obama supporters think the Jeremiah Wright ad is unfair, it's not because he attended that church for 20 years, and Wright was like his family. Obama called him a mentor like an uncle.
Google Obama mocking the Bible? If all the above listed associations and him mocking the Bible doesn't dissuade you Obama supporters from voting for him, we're in deep trouble.

It's interesting that the small towners' reaction to being called bitter is to get bitter."
No. the reaction is to get even. President elect McCain on Nov 5th after PA flips to him.

Good question, Cliff. But it's hard to find out considering how many times he has changed his position:
public campaign financing; offshore oil drilling; FISA; PATRIOT ACT; gun control; NAFTA and free trade; withdrawal of our troops from Iraq (now responsibly versus March 31, 2008), meeting "without preconditions" with Admadinejad - now using different semantics "with preparation."
If he's already flip-flopping shamelessly during the election campaign, what are the chances that he'll keep his promises if he becomes president?

Not much of a country music fan, but at least they perform with "bands." Takes no talent to talk stupid and vulgar to a drumbeat and a turntable. That's the reason for all the stage dancers-to take your mind off guys with no talent.

"It's interesting that the small towners' reaction to being called bitter is to get bitter."
I like to call it righteous indignation, the kind where people begin to understand the character and humility of those who wish to lead them, and who then vote accordingly.
What has Obama done, NOT said, to earn their respect...?
Posted by: Cliff | Oct 28, 2008 4:00:24 PM
To one audience, Obama belittle's traditional American values. Then, he turns around and is suddenly the champion of the middle class.
Which is it? Does anyone really know for sure? The best way to find out is to ignore what he says and study his history of public service, his voting record and his associations. Then, come to your own conclusion.
Posted by: Cliff | Oct 28, 2008 3:48:58 PM
Did their material, Paige. Unfortunately I've had to watch the suppression of Obama's info all this year. If you did any research,MM, you would understand that.

It's also interesting that Hank says "we love God and we love guns" in the same sentence. Almost like there's an equivilance. Scary.

To the paid Obama posters: Does the campaign notify you when to attack or do you pick the articles yourselves?

Democrat for McCain/Palin

Caan and Duvall is only supporting McCain because of his age, just like Powell is supporting Obama because he is black.

Yes because he works for the Federal Government. I think that is what medical records are for.

PT,
I may disagree with their politics but Duvall & Caan are some of the finest actors ever to grace the screen.
Posted by: Ryan C (That One) | Oct 28, 2008 3:02:48 PM
I forgot to mention Ron Howard and Tom Hanks also support Obama.
