Black Conservatives Conflicted on Obama Campaign

I used to listen to Ken Hamblin years ago on the radio(don’t know what happened to him, because he was the best) but he always said that liberal blacks in charge of a city was the worst thing for his race because their policies kept the race from achieving, the city was hit economically, and the crime rates were high). The closest city to me is Birmingham and this describes it’s government to a t. A true conservative black would do wonders for the city, one ran for the mayor’s office this past time but he was beat by a man that is so incompetent and dirty, and B’ham is going to go bankrupt soon. It is so sad. I have friends there who are black conservatives and they are thinking of moving out of the county. Can’t blame them but that’s the backbone of the city.

Steele was the one I always thought should be named VP, however I have a feeling McCain is going to name a woman to the slot just to grab the Hillary women votes. shudder.....

“I am SICK of you MARXIST CONSERVATIVES! GET LOST!!”

Huh? McCain brags about his LaRaza beliefs, how he voted for Ginsberg, destroying free speech and his affiliation with the Gang of 14 and you dare call true conservatives Marxists????? You sound like a spoiled brat who doesnt get his way then throws a fit.

You need to do the growing up.

I'm not sure I can read your posts you don't post in FONT +10 like your comrade and spam pictures with Che Guevera in it (but I'll try anyway). If you consider his/her tactics grown up, you lack understanding of what grown up is.

If y'all want to advocate a candidate, that is one thing, but if McCain-backers blatantly libel me and others of supporting Obama when we completely oppose him is dispicable and you will be subject to our objections. Y'all ought to be ashamed if you think lying will accomplish garnering support for a candidate that most already find objectionable.

Asking our armed forces to fight under the command of a Marxist who thinks Islamofascists are going to be his new best buddies,

Both Obama and McCain are UNFIT FOR COMMAND. Somebody who wishes to grant amnesty and not take border security seriously and close Gitmo is not a serious candidate to take on the "war on terror." It just doesn't follow.

so that you can exercise your ego and have a “pure” vote, is childish.

What ego? Seems like you are the one displaying ego. I am suppose to follow you because you say so? I am supposed to vote for somebody who is unfit for command? I am supposed to vote for a globalist who panders to the global warming whackos, the La Raza Marxists, the open borders crowd? Forget it.

My charge is to vote for the best candidate who will uphold the Constitution and our Constitutional rights and liberties and justice for all. Anything less is a vote against our liberties and that is shameful.

but one of two men will be inaugurated President next January, and Alan Keyes is not one of them.

John McCain won't be one of them either. McCain will make Bob Dole look like a master campaigner when all is done. McCain is McCain's worst enemy, not those of us who refuse to back such a lunatic.

You - and the other 'CONSERVATIVES' here - are the one having a TANTRUM like a two year old. I know I can't let OBAMA - and most Conservatives I know won't - be president. Obama is a Marxist, but you 'Conservatives' will be happy to have him as PRESIDENT, to show Republicans they need to nominate conservatives. Sorry, you 'CryBaby Conservatives'/'Marxist Conservatives' make me sick.

[EagleandLiberty]

you dare call true conservatives Marxists?????

I'm a TRUE small government, low tax conservative. I will NOT be a part of 'MARXIST CONSERVATIVES', to elect a Marxist. Yes, McCain was not my first choice, however, any MORON who either will not vote - or vote third party - to 'PROTEST' the GOP, will help elect Obama, a DANGEROUS MAN!

Most of you OBAMA supporters are KOOKS. Sorry, I have to say it - I will not be a PARTY to ELECT OBAMA. You can, I won't.

First, get a grip on reality. I didn't accuse you of supporting Obama, I said you are helping Obama. Can you tell the difference? I'm not sure you can, because if you did you wouldn't be supporting (note the use of the word "supporting") a third party candidate and thereby helping (note the use of the word "helping") Barack Obama become POTUS.

Second, please don't make me laugh. Do you know how many of you McCain haters have accused me of being a liberal and a traitor to the Republic because I finally back McCain after backing no less than three of his opponents who were more conservative but lost to him?

Somebody who wishes to grant amnesty and not take border security seriously and close Gitmo is not a serious candidate to take on the "war on terror." It just doesn't follow.

The reality is that we are going to have an amnesty-supporting president in office no matter who wins (and we have stopped amnesty cold under one pro-amnesty president, so we can do it again) so we can lose in Iraq and blow kisses to Ahmadinejad, or we can choose the guy who will be tough on the military and diplaomatic fronts. At worst we're looking at FDR vs. Carter here, and that's an easy pick.

What ego? Seems like you are the one displaying ego. I am suppose to follow you because you say so?

It is completely moronic for you to read what I have written and conclude that I am giving you an order and expecting you to slavishly vote the way I personally tell you to. Grow up.

My charge is to vote for the best candidate who will uphold the Constitution and our Constitutional rights and liberties and justice for all.

What you're missing is that this is not a theoretical exercise or a test at school where you only get half credit on the question if you choose McCain. You're supposed to do what's best for the REAL country in THE REAL WORLD. Alan Keyes will not have any opportunity to uphold the Constitution in office in THE REAL WORLD. He will not have any opportunity to stand for your rights in office in THE REAL WORLD. He will not get a chance to secure complete victory in Iraq and Afghanistan stop the Iranian bomb in office in THE REAL WORLD. In this place called THE REAL WORLD, crybaby conservatives will be helping a tax raiser defeat a tax cutter, a supporter of infanticide defeat a pro-lifer, a neophyte defeat the man with experience, an America-hating racist class warrior defeat a real warrior who's put his life on the line for America. Those are the consequences in THE REAL WORLD.

Here's my challenge to everyone who plans to vote third party or stay because they won't vote for McCain: Will you write in George Washington? If not, why not? After all, he has as much chance of being President on January 20 as Alan Keyes does, and he has a better resume.

[Mr. Silverback]

Here’s a challenge for you: Will you write in George Washington for President when you go vote? If not, why not?

Here’s my challenge to you: Will you write in George Washington when you go to vote? If not, why not?

I don’t give a rip about your little childish games, your word games, your childish questions, your condescending attitude, and who you supported before supporting the dangerous and unfit-for-command John McCain.

Reality and this pathetic “REAL WORLD” is what you make it, for it has yet to pass. You and your buddies including 10+ font-boy have chosen to back evil and dare criticize those of us who do not. I will not succumb to false either-or choices, nor should anybody who has any reverence for our Constitutional rights and liberties and sovereignty.

You and your whiny pathetic clique will just have to sit there and take our criticisms of John McCain and anybody who dares accuse honorable people of supporting or helping Barack Obama, or being a crybaby or Marxist or faux conservative as your buddy 10+ font-boy has done. Intellectually and morally bankrupt arguments and games have not helped your side’s case will only make me more resolved.

I answer to a higher authority and if you don’t like it, you can take it up with Him.

I am through with your childish games. Go on and play with 10+ font-boy. I have other matters to attend to. Good day.

[Mr. Silverback]

You and your buddies including 10+ font-boy have chosen to back evil

What are you, Mermaid Man?

"EVILEVILEVILEVILEVILEVILEVILEVILEVILEVIL!!!!!!"

answer to a higher authority and if you don’t like it, you can take it up with Him.

Ah...so you figure that after our nation has killed 40 million little kids, your duty as a person of faith is to look at a match between a guy who opposed the partial birth abortion ban and the Born Alive Act and a guy who opposed abortion with every vote and say "George Washington!"

(You are writing in George Washington, aren't you? If not, why not?)

You are too stupid to be reasoned with. Piss off.
