Obama is a Socialist, a supporter of domestic terrorism, and destroying the fabric of democracy in America by working with groups like ACORN. How can Republicans be so ignorant and forgetful of not only the history of the United States, but of their very own pasts.
The McCain campaigns newest attack is that Obama is a Socialist because he wants to "spread the wealth around". First off this country has always spread the wealth around, not only has this country done it but every country ever you can't have a functioning society without spreading out the wealth. Roads and infrastructure, police and military, all of these are provided by taxation, which spreads the wealth around. There are no countries in the world that do not do this. As for Obama spreading the wealth even further just take a look at the tax brackets from the beginning of the century through WWII, when the top tax bracket was between 67% and 79%, while today the top bracket is 33% and Barack wants to only raise it to 39% and only for the top 5% of the population. anyway that's beyond my point. My point is that republicans are huge projectionists. Republicans were behind the $840 billion bailout. John McCain as close as 2005 on Meet the Press explained why people who make more should pay more in taxes. And probably the worst case of projectionism is Sarah Palin who just weeks before she was nominated as VP gave this remark to a journalist Philip Gourevitch of The New Yorker, "we're set up, unlike other states in the union, where it's collectively Alaskans own the resources. So we share in the wealth when the development of these resources occurs." She stated that about her states Socialist policy of writing each citizen a check for living in the state, paid for by the oil corporations leasing of oil fields in Alaska. She used to brag about the fact that she raised the amount of wealth spreading in Alaska by $1200 a year, now Barack Obama is the "Redistributionist in Chief"? Shame on you McCain and Palin.
As for Obama supporting domestic terrorism, where to start on the Republican nominees supporting it. Ok, John McCain is friends with Gordon Liddy, who was behind the Watergate burglaries and was sentenced to jail for 20 years for conspiracy, burglary, and illegal wiretapping (although the latter appears to be perfect ok these days). Liddy has also incited violence towards federal officials on many occasions often telling listeners of his radio show that if the ATF comes to your house to disarm you you should shoot them in the head, i'll give you a direct quote because it's more insane that way. Liddy has stated, "Now if the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; they're going to be wearing bulletproof vests." ... "They've got a big target on there, ATF. Don't shoot at that, because they've got a vest on underneath that. Head shots, head shots.... Kill the sons of bitches." August 26, 1994. And Obama is the one who is friends with domestic terrorists?!?!
A new claim of Palin's is that Obama is friends with another radical professor who is a terrorist. This new "terrorist pal" of Obama is Rashid Khalidi and he is claimed by Palin to be a former spokesperson for the Palestinian Liberation Organization, however Khalidi and the PLO both claim he was not a spokesperson for the PLO. Obama is "pals" with Khalidi because he taught at the same school as Obama and held a couple fundraisers for him. This automatically makes them friends of course, just as sure as John McCain and Sarah Palin having members of the KKK donate to their campaign mean that they are friends with racists and a domestic terrorist organization responsible for countless deaths of Americans. Right? On top of this, John McCain gave Khalidi's Center for Palestine Research and Studies grants worth over $500,000 during the 1990's when he was chairman of the International Republican Institute. So again, maybe they Republicans should check into who they are going to use in their smear campaigns before they start them. By this logic, I would think that McCain is giving money to "terrorists" while Obama
is only taking money from them.
Now let's talk about Sarah Palin and her ties to domestic terrorists. First of her husband was a member of the Alaskan Independence Party (AIP), a secessionist group. I can not think of anything more damaging to this country than trying to rip one of the stars of the flag. She gave a keynote speech at the AIPs convention earlier this year, and telling them to "Keep up the good work"!!! Seriously, "keep up the good work"?!?!? And again Obama is the one "pallin'" domestic terrorists. She should have referred to it as Palin' around cause she is the one who's doing it. At least William Ayers has done something with his life, like be named Citizen of the Year by the City of Chicago in 1997 for all his charitable work. What has the AIP ever done? Oh just try to seceed from the US. Oh and if that isn't enough this is how their founder, Joe Vogler, views America "the fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred of the US government. And I won't be buried under their damn flag....when Alaska is an independent nation they can bring my bones home." And Obama is the one who is friends with domestic terrorists?!?! Wow. Just, wow.
Not only does she have ties to domestic terrorists of this country she has ties to domestic terrorists in other countries. I know you've all seen that video of her getting the demons excised form her by that witch hunter priest from Kenya, Thomas Muthee. He got his start in Kenya by coming to a town and claiming that an old lady who lived there was a witch, she was blamed for the illnesses, traffic accidents, and even static on the radio. He convinced the people and police of the town that this old woman was a witch and got an angry mob together to drive her out of town. Targeting people of his own country for no other reason than he believed she was a witch. Wow, that is dumb. Well it doesn't stop there. Muthee after getting rid of Palin's demons then ask god to make sure that she became Governor of Alaska, and Palin actually credits Muthee for helping her win the governorship!!! Insane.
And as for ACORN destroying the fabric of democracy in America, I could go off on that for a long time but I'll just let McCain's words at an SEIU, People for the American Way, UNITE HERE, and ACORN rally speak for him. He said to them that they are "what makes America special". Here is a link to the video.
I don't even know what to say besides, stop saying bad things about other people that you yourself are a prime example of, it blows your case and it's just sad.

Here they go again
Republicans have been working on their "Get out and stop the Vote" drive lately.
In Georgia county elections offices have been sending out letters telling people, "This office has received notification from the state of Georgia indicating that you are not a citizen of the United States and therefore, not eligible to vote." That's ok though because they give people a week to prove that they are citizens by providing a birth certificate, passport, or naturalization papers. But it doesn't really help when they write the letter on Oct. 2nd and send the letter out on Oct. 9th. 50,000 thousand Georgian voters have been flagged because of mismatched personal information and 4,500 have been told they can't vote because they are not citizens, both US born and naturalized citizens. Who is behind this new system that purges citizens from voting rolls, oh that would be Georgian Republican Secretary of State Karen Handel. In addition to just plain kicking citizens off of voting rolls Federal voting laws say that voters can not be purged from the voting rolls within 90 days of an election. So, Mrs. Handel is breaking federal law as well and this case is probably going to be the second case to end up before the Supreme Court concerning voting this season. Georgia is also being questioned about their request for over 2 million social security numbers to verify registered voters, which is more than any other state, even though Georgia is the 9th most populous state.
In Ohio this year, we've already had a voting issue taken before the Supreme Court. In this case the state Republican party sued the Democratic secretary of state in order for her to generate a list similar to that in Georgia. She refused on the basis it would disenfranchise voters hundreds of thousands of voters. The case made it's way up to the Supreme Court where the GOP lost thier case.
In Florida, the Republican secretary of state had the system implemented and for a three-week period in September 75% of the new registered voters were flagged for mismatched personal information due to typographical and administrative errors. Why are these people not fired then?
In Wisconsin, the Republican Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen sued the state election board because they would not implement the new "voter supression system" that republicans had gotten through in Georgia and Florida. The board conducted a test and found that 22% of the voters were flagged including 4 of the 6 members of the state election board.
As you can see Republicans do not want you to vote mainly because if less people vote they tend to win. This is because people from populous counties where many people register have more information to enter and get mixed up. Populated areas tend to vote overwhelmingly for Democrats. There's just something about living next to different people that leads you to thinking everyone is equal I guess, versus living in the boonies and being afraid of anything that is "different".

Joe the dumbass liar (not plumber)
First off, his name isn't even Joe, it's Samuel, I blame McCain for perpetuating that lie.
1. Doesn't have a plumbing license or an apprenticeship because he didn't complete the work.
2. Didn't have any actual plans to buy the small business he works for
3. The annual income of the business is only $100,000 a year, actual taxable income even less. Even if the business did make $250,000-$280,000 like "Joe" said, after proper business deductions it would only end up having a taxable income of $150,000-$200,000, which is still under the limit of the top tax rate increase that Obama proposed.
4. Joe the plumber donated $100 to the McCain Campaign before he even went and talked to Obama. Reported on Keith Olberman - MSNBC Oct 21, 2008

Joe the Dumbass Plumber (from a previous date)
If you are reading this, you most likely are into politics and watched the third presidential debate. In this debate McCain was trying to connect to the American public in an extremely pandering way. He kept bringing up Joe the plumber, over and over as if the only issue in
Anyway i hate Joe the plumber. Here's why, Joe the plumber should be Joe the moron, or Joe the entitled douchebag. Here are some quotes from Joe the plumber, "Redistributing the wealth, as far as my hard work, that upsets me," he said. "That's not right. That's not American." And one more than to add on top of that is that Joe the douchebag would be making more than $250,000 a year.
Anyone who makes over $250,000 a year is rich, if you could buy my house with less than a years wage you are rich. Rich people should be paying more in taxes, it's a responsibility of theirs, if they want this country to be a better place and for them to make more money they need to invest in this country not in sending jobs overseas to exploit poor people in poor countries, and destroy their environment and kill their people, just because it's "cheaper". Life isn't cheap and it shouldn't be thought of as commodity.
Oh and Joe the moron, redistribution of wealth is American and always has been. In 1917 the highest tax bracket paid 67% in income tax, by World War Two it was 79%, nowadays those same CEO's pay a piddly 33%. If you make 25 million a year you are taxed at 33%, that leaves you with 16.75 million, who needs that much money? If you were taxed at the rate from 1917 you'd have 8.25 million dollars, and if you were taxed at the rate at the beginning of World War Two you'd still have 5.25 million dollars. I'm sorry if that's not enough money for you, you should be placed in
Here are some quotes for Joe the ignoramus about taxes from our greatest president and one of the Founding Fathers:
"Taxes should be proportioned to what may be annually spared by
the individual." --Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1784.
"Another means of silently lessening the inequality of property is
to exempt all from taxation below a certain point, and to tax the
higher portions of property in geometrical progression as they
rise." --Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1785.
There is your American, someone willing to stand up and do what is right for others and pay their fair share.
Fuck You Joe.
One more reason why conservatives are douchebags and morons, as if there weren’t enough already
U.S. Representative Bill Sali (R-Idaho 1st Congressional District) on the floor of the house, referring to the passing of the increase of the minimum wage:
"As a freshman Congressman, the likely passage of this measure has taught me a new principle: The force of Congress can be brought to bear and justified to suspend those natural laws which would otherwise control important matters. The well-intentioned desire of Congress to help the poor apparently will not be restrained by the rules and principles of the free market that otherwise do restrain American businesses and workers. Apparently, Congress can change the rules that would otherwise affect the affairs of mankind."
"So, Mr. Speaker, I have asked my staff to draft a measure I call the Obesity Reduction and Health Promotion Act. Since Congress will apparently not be restrained by the laws and principles that naturally exist, I propose that the force of gravity by the force of Congress be reduced by 10 percent. Mr. Speaker, that will result in immediate weight loss for every American. It will immediately help reduce obesity problems in America. Weight loss will also help to promote the overall health of Americans as we have been vigilantly advised by our health care."
"Mr. Speaker, I thank this body for the education I have received from the passage of this bill. Since the basis for the use of Congress's power is the same with both measures, I would also ask that everyone who is supporting the measure before us consider becoming an original cosponsor of the Obesity Reduction and Health Promotion Act, and I have a copy."
"So much for the decorum of Congress."
First off, reducing gravity only reduces weight, it does not reduce obesity, obesity is the measure of fat content in a persons body. If you reduce gravity that makes people lighter and affords them to have less muscle mass and more fat. It makes you less healthy, that's why astronauts have to exercise 3-4 hours a day. If you wanted to make people healthier you could increase gravity a little.
Second, Free Markets are NOT based on Natural Laws. Free markets are a badly constructed human economic policy. Their inventor Adam Smith even claimed that they would eventually fail because you can't expect constant growth forever. A Natural Law is something that occurs naturally in nature and does not change throughout the universe, such as Newton's Three Laws of Motion. Laws of motion are applicable to anywhere in the known universe and even anti-matter is subject to Newton's Laws.
Thirdly, there is no decorum in the house or senate because of people like you, so, so much for decorum indeed douchebag.

Ronald Reagan the Liberal?
Yes, you read that correctly. Apparently the patron saint of the GOP was a liberal democrat before he was brainwashed by new wife Nancy Reagan's father. That's too bad, he would have turned out to be a much better president if he had stayed a liberal.

United States National Health Insurance Act HR 676
Tell your congresspeople to support HR 676. Below is the short email i sent to my congressman.
I would like to urge you to support Representative John Conyers Jr.'s bill, HR 676, also known as the United States National Health Insurance Act, which advocates for a single-payer health care system to be set up in the United States. Health care is an important issue to all people and should be considered a guaranteed human right. Supporting this bill wouldn't hurt you politically in extremely liberal Portland and is what your constituents want and what we deserve. I for one don't mind paying more in taxes to make this country a better place.
Thank you.
A Real Explanation of the Employee Free Choice Act
Ok, so a lot of you have heard or seen commercials that conservatives are running about how democrats want to take away your right to secret ballot elections. First off it's only secret ballot elections for unions, most people have probably heard that. Second, it's only for the first election that determines whether or not employees want a union and thirdly it's only taking away a secret ballot election if a majority of employees have already signed check cards, check cards being the cards that people sign saying that they want to start a union. The secret ballot elections are still held if less than 50% (majority) and more than 30% have signed check cards. If over 50% of the employees have signed check cards that shows that they want a union, so there is no need for a secret ballot election, this Act is just taking out one step so that it is easier for people to start unions.
So like most of you already thought, those douchebag conservatives are up to something tricky when they claim that democrats are taking away your right to secret ballots. It's not an out and out lie, it's a word twisting, taking things out of context lie. Figures, those jerky assholes.
Colin Powell Endorsement of Barack Obama
I think that everyone should watch the video of Colin Powell endorsing Barack Obama for president.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/2726572927265729
Anyone who is a moderate and hasn't made up their mind about who to vote for should see Powell's wonderful argument about why Obama is a better choice for today than John McCain. We need more people like Colin Powell, who use their minds instead of their "guts" to make wise, logical decisions. I think Colin Powell fucked up pretty big when he went to the UN back before the Iraq war to push the whole WMD line. But the guy has said on many occasions he feels bad about what he did, and i sincerely think he is, and i think he was probably lied to and was not told about how the evidence was made up or 20 years out of date. Plus Colin Powell has been doing a lot since he retired from the Bush administration to make up for his mistakes.
