While campaigning in a traditionally Republican district, Sen. Barack Obama attempted to beat back rumors about him– telling the Springfield, Missouri crowd that Republicans and Sen. McCain are trying to make voters “scared” of him because they don’t have another strategy.

“Nobody thinks that Bush or McCain have a real answer for the challenges we face. So what they are going to try to do is make you scared of me,” Obama warned, “You know he's not patriotic enough. He's got a funny name. You know, he doesn't look like all of those other presidents on the dollar bills.”

Oops! Wrong one!

“You know he's not patriotic enough. He's got a funny name. You know, he doesn't look like all of those other presidents on the dollar bills.”

Many of us are scared of you, but not because of the reasons you listed. You are a socialist, defeatist, naive, and in favor of reparations for everyone who you consider "people of color".

Heck, Obamination scared me enough to do something I've never done in 35 years of voting eligibility: I actually sent money to a Presidential candidate!

If you had told me a year ago that I would be sending money to McCain, I would have thought you were nuts. Today, I pledged money for the Bravo Zulu fundraiser on line for 1 August.

There’s two Democrats in the race. Twice the fear.

OhMaMa Ohmama let us tease Ohmama!

We are also afraid of his wife. Where is his Wife? She has not been around for several weeks.

Here’s another article about Obama during this visit:

A lovely quote from the article /s:

“A spokeswoman for Obama, Jennifer Psaki, was blunt in explaining the strategy. (going into Republican strongholds)

“What we’re trying to do is go into areas where people are more skeptical,” Psaki said. “You have to go into the belly of the beast.”

"You know, he doesn't look like all of those other presidents on the dollar bills."

If McCain had said that, at least he'd be right. But it wouldn't have anything to do with Barry's racist view.

Karl for veep!

Arrogance, cluelessness and whining are not an impressive combination...

[Jo Nuvark]

I don’t need McCain’s help to fear of Oblahblah.

Obama scares all conservatives...he doesn’t need McCain’s “help”

Obamas race baiting will come back to haunt him. His reparations thing is gonna float like a lead lined balloon. Barack is worried because with his 24/7 advertising campaign by the MSM he can't separate himself from McCain in the polls. And worried he should be because the only counter balance to the MSM advertising campaign has yet to hit the airways.

LOL, I bit the bullet a while back. Not at the levels I sent to Bush but significant enough for a blue collar guy.

In fact Obamas badmouthing of his country in Germany and snub of the wounded at Ramstein and Landstuhl even got me to put McCain bumper stickers on my cars and his sign in my driveway.

Lord help me!

You got that right as rain! This POS ran with the dogs for 20-25 years and now claims that the dogs were really just sheep.

It scares me because of all the cult stupid enough to buy his BS from day one (ignore the non-US citizens here). Let us start with an original copy of his CDOB form that has no marked out items and does have the copy of a hand seal (they will copy)

Reparations

1.) apologies
2.) deeds not words
3.) Harry Reid spending bill includes Emitt Til civil rights fund

Ace of spades?

"Nobody thinks that Bush or McCain have a real answer for the challenges we face." - BHO

This is the same idiot that says it's "always a good idea not to use 'always' or 'never'"...but I guess that 'nobody' is ok to use.

Personally, Hussein, I think that either one of those fine men, who have done something you HAVEN'T, Hussein - serve their country in the military - have more real answers for today's challenges than do you.
