Obama, The Carpetbagging Senator from Illinois
One small Voice

Posted on 09/13/2004 12:13:40 PM PDT by 1smallVoice

I have heard Alan Keyes called a carpetbagger because he is from Maryland. But I have not heard Obama called a carpet bagger and this confuses me. Obama was not born in Illinois, he was born in Hawaii. I bet Alan Keyes was born closer to Illinois.

Obama's mother was a white woman from Kansas, his father was African, Keyes' roots lie in slaves brought here from Africa, sold into slavery by Obama's ancestors, yet Obama better represents Illinois blacks.

Obama was raised a Muslim like his father and his step father who moved him it Indonesia where he was raised as a Muslim. Keyes is a Catholic. Obama claims to be Christian, a member of the United Church of Christ, check it out, they are not Baptists.

Obama went to school on the East Coast and returned to Illinois to begin his political career in Chicago in the 1990's. He is a teacher. He worked to get Bill Clinton elected. They say Illinois is a liberal state and Kerry will win here.

I do not know but from where I sit Obama is the carpetbagger, not Alan Keyes.

I was advocating the purging of all those who were seeking to throw the election to the Democrats. I still advocate doing so.

Well, how interesting.

And you would vote for the Constitution Party Candidate if you lived in Illinois?

Which would help THROW THE ELECTION TO THE DEMOCRATS.

Well which should we believe, should you purge yourself or do you want to throw the election to the Democrats?

Fence sitting is fine, but being on both sides of the fence?

LOL

Who do you think you are, John Kerry?

Your argument with Poohbah's point is silly.

Well that settles that!

Good Grief.

His public policies should be sufficient to discredit him as a just candidate.

Yup

Good point.

" No, it's true. Just because a majority votes someone in, that does not mean that the person is the best for the job. Do you agree with that sentence? If yes, then why argue with me? If no, then I can't help you."

Hmmmm, no reply huh?

I'm losing the arguement? 2001 minus 1998 equals three. Is math not universal?

Don't let that newbie tame or anyone else tell you that you are losing the argument.

You have been here longer than Pardek for goodness sake, you win!

Oh and speaking of Sick...Sic...how do you spell arguement?

Oh yea, you spell it arguement...good job dissing the newbie for a typo when you can't spell...

Nothing personal.

No Daughter of etc, not hopeless, but facts.

We may face this here, who will you vote for if that happens?

A Saddam type to save your hide?

Good argument, you win.

There is not arrogance there, if you can't debate then step down.

Attacks on people don't cut it.

Oh BTW you started the personal stuff by calling tame's post "silly"

So don't put that on him, he seems to counter your arguments quite well.

No, Keyes has already accomplished that with a campaign so inept, it's probably being run by Terry McAulliffe. The CP candidate's got a better chance of winning than Alan does.

Change one letter and you have Osama.

And that's your argument for saying he's a Muslim? What is this, political discussion or a game of f***ing Scrabble?

Keyes is doing everything he can to hand this election to Obama, and you're PO'd at Obama. Methinks you have a severe case of misplaced ire.

Get a grip, man.

He IS a muzlim.

He was born one and if you are born a muzlim, that's it.

I have no argument at all.

Gee sorry to get you to curse at me. That says a lot about your debating skills IMO.

LOL I am not PO'd at anyone and I have no ire...misplaced or otherwize. But you seem to have some. Placed very well I might add.

Keyes is bringing issues up that would not be surfacing if Obamba was not challenged by a good orator.

That is why Keyes is there if you didn't notice. Not to win.

That is clear to everyone except the TerSups.

What's a "muzlim?" Is it some sort of genetic condition?

Keyes is bringing issues up that would not be surfacing if Obamba was not challenged by a good orator.

And he's making sure it's done in a way that makes those issues too radioactive for any other Illinois politician to touch before 2030.

Yup, great strategery to advance conservatism. He MUST be using McAuliffe as a campaign consultant.

That is why Keyes is there if you didn't notice. Not to win.

He's not there to win? In other words, he IS throwing the election to Obama? And you argue that Obama's some sort of Islamist sleeper agent?

Hmm...

"Treason shall consist of making war against the United States, or adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort..."

Well, we've now outed two traitors. Yourself, and Mr. Keyes.

Clintonesque...Hallmark of Islamofacists.

Disagree strongly. Cyanide and arsenic might both be bad for you, but they have no real similarities. Likewsie, while the Clintonesque, anything for power, political expediency might indeed be as truly menacing to the United States, as radical Islam, the comparison ends there. The totally unyeilding dogmatism that is fundamentalist Islam is the complete opposite of the finger in the air, poll reading Clinton style.

Obama isn't a Muslim. Obama is an Obamist. His religion is Obama, in the same vein that Clinton's religion was Clinton. Exactly like Clinton, Obama's religion doesn't extend far from the center of his own universe, which is of course himself.

The difference between these two mindsets is remarkable. The Muslim is willing to kill and sometimes die for his cause. Obama wouldn't risk scuffing the shine on his shoes if the cameras were pointed his way. If elected, Obama's every move will be made with a finger in air and an eye toward the next political summit, just like a former CIC.

Nope. You should ask Syncro, because he's stating that (a) Keyes intends to lose the election, (b) Obama's some sort of Islamist sleeper agent, and (c) he and Keyes are cheerfully assisting in electing an Islamist sleeper agent to the Senate.

either he's drinking, or he is a traitor.

Which one is it?

I would like someone to help me find out the truth about Obama, the stuff they want to hide. Know anyone who could do that, search public files? Please help me.
