86% of the world is out of their freakin’ minds.

If the rest of the world wants to go down the tubes, that’s their business.....they shouldn’t expect America to go and join them.

SO FAR, the Supreme Court has not ruled that the whole world can vote in United States elections. Think about that when you vote for the person likely to make the next Supreme Court appointments.

Two things:

a.) Who cares what the rest of the world thinks?

b.) This pretty much confirms what we think about Obama... he is a Marxist that hates America and America haters around the world hope he gets elected.

“If the World Could Vote”

It can’t. Nor can a random sampling of idiots with internet access. If Niue wants Obama they can have him. I want him behind bars. With no heat or AC.

Then next question is, Name one thing that Obama has done.

I doubt if a native of Borneo or a fellow in the Amazonian jungle has ever heard of Obama or cares. What "world" means here is that portion of it that receives its information from media who are similarly weighted toward Obama, and is in a position to give feedback to this sort of survey.

In fact, even within that population I seriously doubt if the majority could even name McCain unaided or describe a single one of his prospective policies. A significant portion of the American electorate is similarly ignorant. The unfortunate part is that the latter vote.

Hmm, lets get some other silly stats...
97% of people at NASCAR events that are drinking Busch Lite are voting for McCAin.

How about 93% of left handed coal miners who like easy listening music are vboting for Obama.
Has about as much weight as the “If the world could vote...”

The UN would love to be in charge of American politics. In reality they almost are already. They are behind the scenes working hard for world rule and socialism.

Who gives a rats ass what the world thinks about our election?? We are voting and you the world isn’t voting har har har!!!

It's interesting, but I'm a little skeptical, David. Last summer I was in Europe, supposedly when all Europe hated Bush. It was astonishing in my informal survey of many, many people--from members of the Swedish royal family to store clerks--the number and intensity of responses saying, "Go Bush!"

Only one person was negative.

Completely stupid. All you have to do is look at the United States 83% for Obama to know that it’s a poll for liberal hippies.

As an aside, a news network that makes it’s own stories is nothing but a tool.

New Zealand is interesting.......63 percent for McCain.

However, this is not realistic. Obama will not win the United States with 80 percent of the vote as this poll would indicate.

No kidding...

I was in Italy shortly after the Mynamar cyclone hit. One night I watched the moronic brit anchoress on CNN-I try to pin the fact that the despotic regime there was not letting foreign aid in on LAURA BUSH, over a comment she made about the regime.

I kid you not...simply stunning liberal lunacy. It was a great example of how CNN-I infects the world with the Berkeley strain of BDS.

Unfortunately in most of the hotels I was in, CNN-I was the only English channel.

OK FREEPERS & PJ COMIX Fans, Many of you know I work with Soldiers Angels by adopting soldiers and sending them letters, emails and care packages. I got an email request from a member of the group who is in Northern CA and trying to help a Navy vet. Please take a minute to read it and if you can help out a little, that would be great. -———————————

I need your help. I am in Northern California and have been trying to help one of our vets, Chris and his fiancé Rhonda get back on the their feet. They are new arrivals to San Diego as of March 2008 and are homeless, jobless, without money, etc. We have had them in several shelters, they’ve spent in the park, they stayed at a friend of Valerie’s house (she has been the one doing so much for them through Access to Independence), they are now “camping out” at the airport. I wired them $100 last Friday so they could buy food.

Chris has been in the Navy, as a nuclear weapons technician, for 15 years ending in May 2005 when his active duty service ended and he completed his Bachelors degree in Science and Engineering (through the Navy) and a Jurist Doctorate (on his own).

He thought he could make a go of it in civilian life, but changed his mind and tried to get back into the Navy, but they no longer needed him because his job was obsolete. In turn he joined the Army in 2006 but his symptoms of being Bipolar got progressively worse. Due to his illness the Army would not take him. He has served two tours in Iraq (2002 and 2003) both on the ship and on the ground as an ammunition accountant (after his job as a nuclear weapons technician was phased out and eliminated). He is also a recipient of two bronze stars.

I would like to know if any of our Angels could help Chris and Rhonda? Do you have a room for rent or know of someone that might? They are both looking for work. They are using a phone line I set up here at my work as their phone number on applications and Access to Independence is letting them use their address in San Diego on University Ave. Valerie has set them up with bus passes, is working on getting them food stamps, has Chris working with an attorney and so on. But unfortunately all this takes time and in the interim they are still homeless and without money. Would any of you be willing to help them financially? Do you know of any job openings we could help them get? I am looking for anything you can do for them? I am 7 hours away and can only do so much.

Please let me know. If I could come up with approx. $600 I could probably get them started in a studio somewhere so at least they could shower and get some proper rest in order to job hunt.

I did not want to post her contact info on an open forum w/o permission, so if you can help please freepmail me for the address.

Thank you so much for all you do for our vets. It is most appreciated.
