Obama: 'They're going to try to make you afraid of me'
CNN Political Ticker ^ | 6/21/08 | Alexander Marquardt

JACKSONVILLE, Florida (CNN) – Barack Obama told supporters that Republicans will “try to make you afraid of me” in remarks he made Friday at a Florida fundraiser.

"The choice is clear. Most of all we can choose between hope and fear. It is going to be very difficult for Republicans to run on their stewardship of the economy or their outstanding foreign policy.

“We know what kind of campaign they’re going to run,” said the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee. “They’re going to try to make you afraid. They’re going to try to make you afraid of me. ‘He’s young and inexperienced and he’s got a funny name. And did I mention he’s black?’"

Imagine what it will be like with Barack Hussein Obama running America. Every time he's criticized--- he'll be charging ageism & nameism. And did I mention racism?

Why would anyone be afraid of a cocaine selling secret homosexual with big ears?

Obama: ‘They're going to try to make you afraid of me’

Sorry Obama but no one can make me afraid of what I am now terrified of and that is your election to POTUS.

You most dangerous man in all of America.

He is like a five year old child constantly screaming “you're a doodyhead” at anyone who says anything remotely critical of him. Spoiled, petulant, dull-witted child.

But but he is a graduate of the Harvard Law School and was the
(a?) editor of the Harvard Law Review.

I AM afraid when you tell me I can't eat what I want, keep my thermostat at 72 degrees or drive a "safe" car.

Stay out of my life and stop wasting OUR time and money on your brilliant idea of...we're all equal"....

Because I'm not equal to people who sit on their butts, pop out kids with no fathers like gumballs and all the other bums of society who live off of OUR paychecks.

“They” don’t have to make me afraid of you Obama. I’ve always feared Communism. Take your Gueverra flag and shove it.

No, Barack, you make me afraid of you -- with comments like this...
 
Obama: Man of the World
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
Published: March 6, 2007

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to
prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that
seemed delightfully uncalculated [...], Mr. Obama described the
call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at
sunset."

I’ve been afraid of you since the first day you opened your mouth. Your a Marxist and a Socialist and a “tar-baby”. And, it’s not just you, it’s that gang of terrorists, racists, thugs, criminals, hate-mongers and that loud mouth wife of yours that comes along with you.

Bill and Hillary campaigned in part based on him being black; she allegedly told super-delegates privately that he can’t win the general election. Bill especially used racial innuendo during the primaries. Why do any of that, if not to play on people’s fears? Why didn’t Bill just play up Hillary’s 10 point plan for socialized medicine if she’s so wonderful?

Hillary and Bill have already written a lot of potential campaign ads for McCain based on their own statements during the primaries.

Nice try, Obama. You are INEXPERIENCED & a LIBERAL/SOCIALIST. That's all that matters to me!

I’m not afraid of Obama, I’m afraid FOR the nation if he’s elected.
