It was during the Dem. Primary that his , Horton's, CRIMES while of furlough were enumerated. Rape, murder, mutilation, castration, but no photo. The Rep. advert quoted the Dem. primary advert., AND included a photo of Horton, mug shot, I think, and he sure looked the stone, consiousless murderer that he was.

Anyway, it was a completely legitimate issue, as government is there to protect the citizens. When their actions actually injcrease the danger and actually cause harm to the public, making it common knowledge is a public service, not race bating, etc etc.

BARRY, by saying that the Rep's will use race bating, etc, is race bating in fact. Making race an issue from day one. NOW, he will rationalize any  race bating he does as being caused by those "evil" republicans,,,,......typical fraud.

From the little I can remember from 1988, it WAS Paul Tsongas that first used Willie Horton in a primary against Dukakis. Now, Barack Hussein Obama is accusing the GOP for being "racists" for something that hasn't even happened yet, never will?

I'm sick and tired of his race-baiting. I'm sick and tired of him.



Nilla Please  :innocent:


 :lmao:   


as for Obama scaring me cause he's black? uh.. no. I dont like his socialist ideas and how little he truly understands the economy.

why be afraid of someone im never going to meet?  :whatever:

I will not vote for Obama because he is black.
In words that liberals cannot comprehend, just because Obama is black does not dictate I will vote for him.
Obama tossing out this rhetoric at this time shows HIM to be the racist here and unlike the left in this nation, I will not be "guilted" into voting for him because of some slavery that happened long before I was born.
Screw you Obama and the train full of racist pigs you rode in with.

Thank you.... that is perfect.

There are plenty of reasons to not vote for Barry,

What has he done while in the Senate for the state of Illinois? He seems to be talking a good game about hope and change but so far all I see is the same old Democrat run state thats just as corrupt and bad as ever.

He has no foriegn policy experiance at all. Anyone that wants to use Winnie The Pooh as a guideline and not John Wayne or Winston Churchill needs to go back to school because he has FAILED to learn from history.

Just what are his policies? Has he even lais out one plan that would realistcally bring oil prices and the housing market under control? NO he just sits behind his podium and repetes Democrat talking points. They said Bush is an idiot,if thats true then I wouldn't be holding Barry up as a shining example on economics.

Face it people Barry is about as experianced as a 6th grade debating team when it comes to running for President. There's not alot to like about McCain but damn, at least he'll know when to pull the trigger on some asshat with a bomb and a plan to use it. I won't vote for McCain but I will be voting for the Senators and Congressmen here that will be more likely to push though a conservative agenda like we have needed for a long time.

thank you for being another that will ensure that Barry is the next President of the United States

People that vote for a person just because they have a certain initial behind their name, are part of the reason why the country is so **cked up to begin with IMO.

There ain't a damn thing wrong with NOT voting for a person that you feel does not and will not represent you and your views.

I may or may not vote for McCain in November (I am currently leaning toward not).  I certainly won't be brow beaten into it by such comments as above.


No kidding...................and I can thank every damn person who didn't vote against Obama for helping get elected. There's no brow beating going on.

It's a free country do what you like, but come November and Obama is elected and you choose not to vote on the President.............Please do not complain about a damn thing that's all I will ask.


Are you implying that if I don't vote the way you want me to, I should just sit in a corner and shut up?

Are going to vote "Against" Obama or "For" McCain?  There is a difference IMO.

I'd rather vote "for" the candidate of my choice than merely vote "against" his opponent.

We have about 4 months left before the general election.  McCain still has the chance to earn my vote. But he is going to have to EARN it by convincing me that he is worthy of it.  His recent history in Congress has convinced me that he is pretty much a RINO.  He is going to have to work hard to over come that perception.

Obama doesn't scare me.  We survived 8 years of Clinton, we will certainly survive 4 years of Obama.  And it just might be the wake up call that the idiots in charge of the Republican party need, to realize that they can't simply take the conservative vote for granted and expect us to vote for every RINO they roll out of the closet.

The difference is that the Clintons are the very definition of pragmatists. They will do whatever leaves them in power and ideology is somewhere down the line. Barry's an idelogue, something that makes him far more dangerous than Billary ever thought of being.

You clearly didn't live through 4 years of Carter.

Yes -- a non-vote is a vote for hussein.  And your taxes will double or triple while you see our military become useless.  You will socialist programs so breathtaking (starting with healthcare) that you will think you woke up in Cuba.  Capitalism, as we know it, will be destroyed -- maybe for a generation. Your children (or nieces and nephews) will wither be slaves to the government or (if they are smart) merely drains on the government.

And on your feet it indeed shall be.

Hmmm... You might have a point.  But an Obama presidency still does not scare me.  I have faith in the ideology of America and I have faith that there are enough us in the silent majority to do what needs to be done to protect that ideology.

You already are such a slave, What are you going to do about it?  

Are you going to just piss and moan and vote for a person that wants you to remain a slave under a different title?  McCain ain't gonna "free" you, me or anyone else.  

He can't.

The stakes are not any higher this time than they were 20 years ago.

IMO.

It is merely a matter of perspecitve.

This sums it up for me.

Those who do not vote/support John McCain could also be labeled as racists, too....two can play that game.

And yet what he and his most diabetic coma-induced Kool-Aid drinking minions don't realize is that when he utters statements like these, people who are sitting on the fence jump off, and not in his direction.

Bradley Effect or no, polls are meaningless this election season.  More so given the fact that people 1--don't want Carter-lite, 2--don't like his message on defense, energy, or taxes, 3--he's going to say 1000 stupid things when the cameras are off or he doesn't have a prepared statement for every time he says "HOPE" or "CHANGE".

You are correctomundo...I know people who find him wanting to meet with terrorist leaders to be totally abhorrent. This is what scares them most.

I am about where  you are, Air Wolf. I can't, in good conscience vote for John McCain. I will, however, be voting for my local government. Turns out, my local government can do something about Little Mexico, I mean the Illegals  :-)

Ding!! Ding!! Ding!! Ding!!

I feel exactly the same way. When I vote, I place my vote *for* who I am voting for, I am not voting *against* their opponent.

I'll be bitching the next four years, no matter who wins this election, and I guess I will be "allowed" to since I might not vote  :fuelfire: (because I suppose your not  :fuelfire: :fuelfire: :fuelfire: :fuelfire: "allowed" to bitch about the candidate you voted for, which is exactly why I would be following the "rules" by not voting....it gives me my bitching rights).

I too cannot vote for a RINO.

its not necessarily just 4 years of BHO.  its very likely one or more SCOTUS changes.  thats a little unusual and very much worthy of consideration.

do you want more Ginsbergs or Roberts' ?
My fellow Americans, there is nothing audacious about hope. Hope is what makes people buy lottery tickets instead of paying the bills. Hope is for the old gals feeding the slots in Atlantic City. It destroys the inner-city kid who quits school because he hopes he'll be a world-famous recording artist.

so it would seem.   they often suggest that there is 'no way' McC could FAIL to place a Ginsberg because the Congress wouldn't allow it.  I don't buy that.   if they obstruct it will just come to haunt them.  to be sure there will be no Scalia's but they could not turn down many moderates.  and a moderate is great improvement to some of those thought to be checking out soon.

I know I am anything but "gleeful" about the choice of candidates and about not voting in this upcoming election. I'd be gleeful if there was someone decent on the ticket, but there isn't.

I am disappointed and quite disgusted.

It's a long time until November.

I think those that can't stomach to vote for McCain should ask themselves what it would take to make him the candidate you could vote for. I don't trust politicans (any of them) as far as I can throw them. But the McCain camp seems to be listening. Slowly. But it's something. I'm honestly committed to voting for McCain. I just hope that he makes me happier about it before election day.
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
