Then along comes John McCain. A man who has been against our President over and over again. We saw the left crossing the line repeatedly to bring about a McCain candidacy. Our candidates were thrown to the trashbin because the leftists interfered with the process. And it irritated us beyond belief. John McCain became the nominee. And then, the empty suit comes along who is the singularly most unqualified candidate we've ever put up by either party and yet, he comes in and lowers the bar of discussion.

You are correct. But be careful, or you'll be shouted down and called a "hater" for telling the truth. I still want to know how many pieces of silver Mike Huckabee was paid to help foist McCain on the GOP.

I’m just so jaded.

Everybody, even our Presidential candidate, cuts the left SO MUCH slack.

Frank Rich, a New York Times hack, wrote a column bitching about the anger of republicans and accusing us of ‘Weimar-like rage’ and ‘inciting vigilantism’, ad infinitum.
Link here: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/12/opinion/12rich.html

Well, I decided to drop Frank an email and explain things:

Frank,
You’re damned right we’re angry.

It’s hard to take things like this ‘out of context’:

Obama: “ACORN will help shape my agenda”:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vJcVgJhNaU

He himself shows racial tendencies:

“That’s just how white folks will do you. It wasn’t merely the cruelty involved; I was learning that black people could be mean and then some. It was a particular brand of arrogance, an obtuseness in otherwise sane people that brought forth our bitter laughter. It was as if whites didn’t know that they were being cruel in the first place. Or at least thought you deserving of their scorn.” –Barack Obama

He says William Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn, despite a clear history of anarchist philosophy and terrorist acts, were just ‘people in the neighborhood’. Yeah, and the Bolsheviks were just a local civic organization. Or is that ‘community organizers’?

“Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home. Kill your parents, that’s where it’s really at.”
–Bill Ayers, Weather Underground, 1970

What a guy.

Obama’s campaign staff tried in vain to connect Sarah Palin with an Anti-American separatist organization, an accusation which has already been soundly debunked.

He sat in a church for over 20 years listening to the sermons of a rabid moonbat who “god-damned” America and railed against “whitey” and Jews.

Some of the world’s worst dictators and Islamic goons are head over heels for Obamessiah, not surprising given his emapthy for their ‘plight’:

From an interview in the 19 September 2001 edition of the Hyde Park Herald:

“We must also engage, however, in the more difficult task of understanding the sources of such madness. The essence of this tragedy, it seems to me, derives from a fundamental absence of empathy on the part of the attackers: an inability to imagine, or connect with, the humanity and suffering of others. Such a failure of empathy, such numbness to the pain of a child or the desperation of a parent, is not innate; nor, history tells us, is it unique to a particular culture, religion, or ethnicity. It may find expression in a particular brand of violence, and may be channeled by particular demagogues or fanatics. Most often, though, it grows out of a climate of poverty and ignorance, helplessness and despair.”

Link: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/07/21/080721fa_fact_lizza?currentPage=all

Yeah, that’s it. Must’ve been the ‘hopelessness and despair’ of the 9/11 Islamofascist excrement, instead of adherence to the precepts in the Koran or the abject hatred of Western civilization.

The MSM, especially the New York Times, is so ass-deep in the tank for Obama, that it serves as one of his campaign headquarters.

Oh by the way Frank, since you mentioned ‘Weimar’, a now ‘disappeared’ website called “Sing for Change” gathered a bunch of 5 through 12 year olds to sing the praises of the Obamessiah.

Very. Creepy. Once the video gained notoriety for it’s Hitler Youth-type quality, it too, disappeared.

Read about it here: http://freedomeden.blogspot.com/2008/10/sing-for-change-obama.html

Wanna know what what ‘pumps up my rage’, Frank?

I’m angry with a visceral leftwing media conglomerate and Democratic candidates who have more allegiance with America’s enemies than their own country.

I’m angry that there are Americans (and world-wide disciples) who blindly follow malcontents like Obama without caring about the ominous consequences.

That Obama shouldn’t be a presidential candidate let alone a United States Senator, makes me angry.

I’m angry that there’s a neo-socialist political machine in this country who helps elect venal politicians, in line with their reprehensible values.

I’m angry that anyone, including Mahmoud Amahdinejad, would believe that Obama’s election as president of the most powerful nation in the world, would be good thing.

I’m angry that the Left’s dog-eared race card is being flung as if Obama’s nihilist background has no bearing on his policies.

Last, but certainly not least, I’m angry that Democrats and their obsequious followers would gladly compromise America’s security and strength for a ‘new world order’ dictated by leftist Eurotrash and hostile Islamic nation-states, in the name of ‘improving our image’.

Hint, Frank: It ain’t his skin color, it’s his Socialist agenda I hate.

Take your socialism and ‘racist’ accusations and shove them up your ass. I’m sure there’s plenty of room.

Well, thank you for the spelling warning.

I was mad this morning when I wrote it, so I didn’t do the spell-check I should have.

I’m worse than jaded at this point, I’m jaundiced and cynical and pessimistic.

But there’s still that part of me that thinks McCain has 7, 8, or 9 lives and knows exactly what he’s doing. And that Sarah was sent by God Himself to catapult that old codger across the finish line ahead of the Islamofriendly communist.

There are so many investigations underway of Hussein’s many nefarious treasons, frauds, and collaborations with enemies foreign and domestic that if anything sticks before the election and breaks wide open on the MSM(ha!) we’re good to go. But I’m not counting on it.

McCain’s internal polls may tell an entirely different story than the publicly advertised polls—if McCain sees a much rosier read in key battleground states than we’re allowed to see, that could explain his lily-livered statements (he all but endorsed Hussein for POTUS!!) to restrain us rabid psychos at the rallies. It’s one way I try to look at the situation in order to not just shoot myself over it all!

I read your initial reply, and comprehended that you were commenting strictly in reply to one single sentence, which indicated an identical attitude as the other poster to whom I directed my comment. The author’s next sentence, which you did not include when you set up your response, addressed the exact same point you were making, but in a general way.

See what happens when you fail to recognize fact?

I think that the fact that they’ve been hanging back and not attacking too much lately and the GOP’s big war chest and the skewed polls and the other things that have some serious positive, that we’re going to see Barack go down in flames.

Ha ha ha. It took you that long to come up with this comment? It's nothing more than the same thing you said in your original post to me. You simply added some frill.

Presenting thoughts in a general way, when you are trying to make a critical point, unfortunately leaves a writer's comments open to interpretation by the reader. If you are attempting to introduce and stress a specific position, especially to individuals with opposing views, it is much better to detail that point with examples, so as not to give the opposing party the avenue to change the meaning of your message, and use it against you.

It took me until I was so bored from completing more interesting and pressing activities to waste a few seconds sending you a reply.

A fiend sent this to me...

A fight is going on inside me ... It is a terrible fight, and it is between two wolves. One wolf represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, pride and superiority. The other wolf stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith. This same fight is going on inside of you and every other person too.

The grandchildren thought about it for a minute and one child asked: ‘Which wolf will win?’

The old Cherokee replied: ‘The one I feed.’
