Good Morning PUMAS!
Murphy, just sent you an email.
Good morning PUMAS!
Trouble in paradise!

Flip-Flop
Well, I took a long PUMA nap last night. Wow, the stuff that when on while I was sleeping! Rendell HOUND dog site gone, news after news, nasty no OB’ emails…
hehehe, PUMAS are sure getting to them OBnots.
reposting this: I just heard Bill O’Reilly state on Fox that even BO’s supporters are gettting frustated with him, with all the flip-flopping he’s doing - specifically the Moveon.org people. He said they’re complaining all over the blogs. Bill even went so far to say that it’s not too late to put Hillary in - instead of Obama! I think we should thank him.
Good Morning PUMA’s
I didn’t get a chance to read all of last night’s posts, so forgive me if this is duplicated. However, worht mentioning again as BHO’s supporters have now begun to get a tad bit upset with him. Today’s NYT times article ‘Obama Voters Protest His Switch on Telecom Immunity’ is worth the read. His center stance may just be the shot in the foot we hope to see. Many supporters are outraged. I venture to say that many will now pay closer attention. Here’s a piece of the article:
“I don’t think there has been another instance where, in meaningful numbers, his supporters have opposed him like this,” said Glenn Greenwald, a Salon.com writer who opposes Mr. Obama’s new position. “For him to suddenly turn around and endorse this proposal is really a betrayal of what so many of his supporters believed he believed in.”

yesterday was a great day. I can see the beginning of the meltdown of the kool aid drinkers. It is getting more and more crowded under the bus. I believe we have made such strides. We have got to keep working, because I do believe at the convention, we will have the right ELECTED nominee! What we will see is *61 chasing after the bus as we leave him in the dirt, wheels screeching as we put it into overdrive….back to the Hillary Express!! I am very optimistic today. It is not over by any means. Keep up the good work fellow PUMAS!
Just had to send an email to Governor Rendell, here is a copy;
Good Morning Governor Rendell,
I see you’ve removed your HOUND website. Thank you. I’m shocked that you or someone under your watch would do such a thing in the first place. I’m disappointed in that action but appreciate you taking it down. People tend to remember the bad rather than the good that someone had part of in politics. That’s sad because I know your a good Governor but many are not so forgiving. Maybe to redeem yourself you can right your wrong by supporting Hillary Clinton once again. We both know that Obama is not the right choice to be our leader. I seriously doubt that he would have appointed you a position anyway. Remember, he is the flip-flop candidate.
Respectfully,
(me)
Good Morning (afternoon here) PUMA’s and welcome new members.
hey move over its crowded under this bus! put Rev Wright and Flieger adn the move on org people by the exhaust pipes. Let them suck in the fumes. Its the least we can do after we had to listen to them blow smoke about Hillary for all those months!
I hear he is going to Colorado today. All of our CO PUMAS…keep a close eye on him today. I will keep an eye on the newspapers there http://www.denverpost.com or http://www.rockymountainnews.com
Good morning everyone
The latest with Obama is now he is going to EXPAND the “faith-based” social services program. His argument is that the government can’t do everything by itself. If I got this right: he’s going to give billions of tax dollars to tax-exempt churches to (according to their beliefs ) give whatever “aid” they see fit
( probably won’t be a lot of sex deducation ) .
Let’s see: this government that can’t do everything: won 2 World Wars, overcame a massive Depression,
assimilates million +/- of new immigrants a year, has supported universal and bilingual public education,
maintains bridges, railroads, waterways,social security /medicare ( when congress appropriates the funds ) and national security but has to have right-wing churches and their agendas to help out???????
Oh, and also . . . these “faith-based” agencies should have the right to employ or not emploe people based on the employee’s “faith”.
Even the Hound Dogs are going to be sick on this one.
Take an insecure and arrogant person . . . give them enough rope and hopefully they will hang themselves.
Time to make nice with hounds - - - awake them from their stupor and welcome them back into a community
of responsible citizens.
mpdamon - so much for the idea of separation of church from government. Did it occur to him, as when I read over and over again on the right to employ based on thier faith (although, I do beleive it’s for only non profit type faith organizations, applying to just about all) that this is a form of discrimination? Does anyone else see what I see here?
mpdamon
I see it the same way I have witnessed friends in very bad abusive relationships. You can see it but they cannot. The more you try to dissuade the stronger the allegiance becomes. Eventually hopefully they wake up, but there is nothing you can do until then
Totally random, but I would actually love to see PUMA become an actual Political Party.
I would like to think that our postings to the HOUND site had something to do with getting it taken down.
#14
Whoops - guess I got that wrong. Obama is NOT going to allow them to use “discrimination” in hiring. Evangelicals aren’t going to like that.
just an observation–each morning I come to my computer to check in with this site, and my sister has the TV on in another room, watching the MSM. I swear, they say BO’s name every 10 seconds. It’s like a mantra. Surely, there is more news in this world than him. That is one way the media is trying to persuade America. He gets more air time than McCain, to the point where I am not sure if the majority of Americans are getting a fair view of Senator McCain.
And, is it for real–did the H.O.U.N.D.S. site really shut down?
Yes, he is going to give money to faith based groups. Like Trinity? When they get the money, the church can use it for any program they want. They do not have to account for the money. ……..hello?……….
Lin4Hill
to combat the rediculously biased media i still wear a hill pin but I couple it with one for Mccain and I also carry Living History on the bus. needless to say I won’t be winning any popularity contests soon.
PumaAllie, I see your point-the work that PUMAs have to do is going to take a long time-way past the nomination and the general election. We have major problems in terms of the election process and in order to effect change (:-) that word again) we are going to have to be diligent and patient-but every bit as determined as we are now.
# 21
The government hasn’t “accounted” for our money for a long-time now, so why not expand that unaccountability to churches. Next we can expand it to banks, sub-prime lenders, Wall Street traders . . . in fact all of corporate America. Maybe it would be simpler if we just elected Ted Haggard or Lee Raymond to the Presidency.
If you have 15 minutes to spare and just want to listen to something different, there is a rerun of Alistaire Cookes letters from America, with commentary regarding this nomination from Justin Webb, who notes how Alistair Cooke would have been proud of Hillary Clinton in her “never give up” attitude.
It is about the Truman election of 1948, when everyone had predicted it for the other candidate, Thomas Dewey (sp?)

None of us are going to increase our popularity this year. That’s the price you pay for adhering to your beliefs. Take comfort in knowing that you are not alone.
You have thousands ( if not more ) of PUMAS who are with you in spirit.
just in case you guys didn’t see this…CNN has now become Obama’s hall monitor!

McCain campaign pulls ads from some anti-Obama web sites
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/07/01/mccain-campaign-pulls-ads-from-some-anti-obama-web-sites/
Something tells me we’re getting very popular!
Speaking of radio:
DON’T FORGET: PUMA RADIO IS ON TONIGHT AT 7 PM
Morning! Great I found everyone!! I need some advice … I posted this same comment “downstairs” —
Help! I need help — OK … I have this friend … who did (DID) vote for Hillary … but now is planning on voting for “The One Whose Middle Name Cannot be Mentioned” … OK … she says that the reason she cannot vote for Hillary is because, she would just be throwing her vote away and McCain would appoint a Supreme Court Justice who would overturn Roe v. Wade.
My usual response to this type of response is that sometimes you just have to take a stand in your life, and do the right thing! And let the chips fly where they will. And deal with Roe v. Wade, if and when it becomes an issue, and then protest that! That you just have to draw a line in the stand, and say, I am not going to let the DNC, the sexist media, and the good ole’ boys clubs MAN-ipuilate, humiliate, demean, and degrade me and my candidate! That one person can’t fix all the problems in the world, but you can stop some of them! Stop the sexism, and maybe Roe v. Wade would take care of itself!
Does anyone out there have any other response to the argument that 1) A protest vote is just throwing your vote away, and 2) A protest vote will permit the overturn of Roe v. Wade???????????????????
My response seems to fall on deaf ears!
Thanks!
mpdamon
i have no regrets and for every idiot who attacks me for reading a book or wearing a pin i have rec’d the whisper that i too will vote mccain if hill is not in the running. In my little way I want to keep hope alive
#20 Lin4Hill Yeah. About that BO BO BO… my brothers 4 year old is being brainwashed. He says that name over and over. We said to him “Hillary Clinton Hillary Clinton Hillary Clinton” and now “John McCain Johnny McCain Johnny McCain”. Last night my brother mentioned something to the effect of “yeah, they are broadcasting this into our house (Radio, MSM) corrupting my child’s innocence”.
merryjaine
I am not an attorney but I believe r v w is predicated on the right to privacy. the supreme court has repeatedly acknowledged said right and as our judicial system is based on common law I doubt it could be overturned without a constitutional amendment and the chances of that are slim to none

McCain dealt with this issue in a speech . . . and I don’t remember which TV channel it was broadcast on. He stated that while he is personally opposed to abortion
he understands that to return to the pre-Roe Vs. Wade position puts thousands of women’s health at risk from complications of unsafe illegal abortions. He indicated that he would like to se the matter left to the ststes to decide. If anyone has knowledge of that interview please give details.
Also, point out to your friend that it is possible to have responsible discussions with people with whom we disagree. McCain is respectful and does listen. Better someone who disagrees with you and is open about saying so than someone you can’t tyrust. And you can’t trust Obama. Hasn’t she learned anything from the past 8 years? Bush was a “compassionate conservative” , remember? Flip-floppers are amoral and as such are totally undependable.
Merryjane, if Bush could not get Roe v. Wade overturned then McCain sure as heck won’t get it done either. Besides it is a wedge issue, the republicans NEED it right where it is AND believe it or not many, many republican women don’t want it over turned either. It’s not going anywhere.
And yes, a protest vote does matter this time. VERY much. It’s 2008, we’ve had twelve serious females run for the White House. NOT ONE was as prepared and well versed in the issues or as qualified as Hillary Clinton and look what they got away with doing to her?? She had an 87 percent approval rating with all Americans. She was voted the most admired woman in America FOUR years in a row and this primary season took that down to 53 percent….how did that happen then??
The DNC sat silent for this sexism and the Obama campaign used it to their advantage. Voting for Obama to me is the same as asking a minority group to vote for a high profile KKK member!! I do not see how people can think ANY self respecting feminist could reward this party for the metaphorical witch burning to quote a fellow Hillary supporter that we were witness to. AND which harmed all women whether they realize now how much or not.
After all, if they can get away with doing this to someone as powerful as Hillary Clinton what makes your friend think it won’t ever happen to her as she progresses through life. With Hillary in the White House women’s issues such as domestic violence would have been on the table for a lot more money and research into solutions.
If we do not take a stand against what happened here in 2008 then WHEN will we???
merryjane, henry makes a good point. The HIPPA laws evolved out of R v W dealing with our right to privacy. It would be my guess, that as in the past elections, R v W is always brought up to bring up emotions about abortion issues.
Good Morning, Pumas! Won’t have a chance to read the posts until later on as I’ll be gone a few hours. I haven’t been over to hcsfjm.com for a few days, can’t hardly keep up with you. But someone left this video on there which is why we are all fighting the misogyny and sexism against Clinton. Does anyone know how we can send this to Pelosi and Dean? I don’t know if they have an e-mail address. I do know we can send it to Brazile. This is so disgusting when you see it all put together and what this poor woman went through.

same with gay rights
the supreme court didn’t say its okay to be gay what they said is what happens between two consenting adults is none of the govt’s business. as jurists when they respond they must do so by looking at the constitution and to what earlier laws and decisions have rendered.
#22 Henry - you are a trooper, and it is heartening to hear that you get those “whispers” My hope is that millions are being silent now but will be heard in November.
#25 - PumaAllie - I always loved Alistair Cooke. Still have his book, America, from years ago. Thanks for the link.
#32 Deadgirlsrise - funny, from a 4 year old! They like the way the name sounds on their tongue. At least you’re trying to undo the corruption
everyone–Riverdaughter has a lively post this morning–you can access it through the quicklinks - The Confluence
up on the side.
henry - exactly!
Wouldn’t it be amazing if these campaigns and spin doctors developed a conscience (hope I spelled right) and reported true factual information instead of playing with everone’s heads?
I know, I was only dreaming……
I could not watch all of that video. I cannot bear those things anymore. I feel like women everywhere were abused by this in some sort of media frenzy of hate. The DNC will be held accountable for staying silent about this. To think I worked all my life for liberal issues and trusted that if it were ever an issue that affected me so personally they would never stand silent for it.

Thank you for validating my own experiences. I have had many people come up to me and whisper that they are not going to vote for Obama but don’t want anyone to know. I call them closet PUMAS.

well we have to keep up the good work so they know they have an ear into which to whisper else they will fall for the big media lies

but you all keep up the good fight
Good morning PUMAS!,
I heard on CNN this morning that Obambi had a lower rate on his house loan, what a fraud, he is so full of it!
His excuse, people were fighting to get me the best deal, yeah right! Resko! You need to talk about the truth men! Where are you??????
I know that this was brought up yesterday but for people who do not know, there is no mention of Obama on Hillary’s web site. Don’t you find that very interesting.

We will pave the road to the convention with yellow rose petals for Hillary! She is going to the convention, the SD’s will vote for her. This will happen…….We just need to keep focused and do what we do best. We need to pay off her debt….her site is now O free. There is a reason for that. She did what she promised, as usual. She did the shmunity thing. Now thats over and it is back to work. She needs to be debt free by the convention. There is a lot of behind the scenes work going on, believe me.
#10 bythelake, I am confused, what HOUND web site was you talking about that was taken down? I was just at http://www.padems.com/form/hound and it’s still there???
My puma gmail was hit and frozen. Anyone else?
^I meant to say a lot of work going on behind the scenes.
news.aol.com/political-machine/2008/07/01/obama-denies-rebuking-clark/
There’s no doubt that Obama has managed to alienate many of his avid supporters. I flew over the Huffy Post yesterday and was amazed at the shocked, stunned and “angry” posters over this faith-based proposal, redux GWB. Add this to the misteps last week with the Telecom immunity upset, the comments on gun control and NAFTA and Kool-aide crowd is beginning to wonder who Obama really is.
Gee, we could have taken a stab at that weeks ago.
I’m really encouraged that the Hound dog site is down. Hope it’s not simply a net problem. I thought the whole idea was a lame response to PUMA, which within a short month has spread like wildfire.
Terrific work. Only proves that voices raised in unison have an impact and will be heard.
#59, it was removed. Guess Gov. Rendell embarrassed himself.
Now that Gen Wes Clark has come out in support of BHO, has anyone heard of the other Generals that supported Hillary and where they stand?
#59 It does look as if it’s still up. I believe the photgragh is now different from when it first appeared.
My letter to Pelosi;
Dear Ms. Pelosi,
I want to thank you for taking the stand of supporting Barack Obama for our democratic candidate.
I’m sure you feel you made the right choice for all American’s. Barack will make a great President.
Oh, wait, that was a nightmare letter!
Here’s the real one now that I have your attention.
What are you crazy? You are backing Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton? I as a woman am ashamed of you. I am ashamed that I voted for you to make decisions on my behalf.
In case you don’t know it your were elected to honor the wishes of the people, not your own personal wishes. I see your sexism as wanting to the be the first ‘woman’ something, just not sure what.
Well, I am no longer a die hard democrat thanks to you and your irresponsible support of Barack Obama.
You and your chain gang have caused one of the largest uprisings in America by supporting the ’selection’ of Barack Obama.
John F. Kennedy said, “ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country”.
Our country is asking that Hillary Clinton be rightfully placed as the nominee of this year’s democratic party. She was after all “elected” by the people, the people who will determine the outcome of this election!
I personally will not support flip-flop Barack Obama. What part of “he is not qualified” do you not understand? For me the decision is a no brainer.
McCain 2008
Hillary 2012

Good morning, Pumas!
Now many of those “believers” will find out that all the things we saw wrong with this guy are real and we were so right by supporting Hillary, the best candidate. We were and are so right about her! Let’s hope. Things can and should change in August at the convention.
Thanks to all of you for being such an enthusiastic and comforting refuge for so many of us that come here every day to find news and hope, even if we do not post as often as you do.

Obama Met with Powell in June
By Shailagh Murray
Sen. Barack Obama and retired Gen. Colin Powell met for about an hour on June 18 in Powell’s Alexandria, Va., office, a source close to the Obama campaign said.
Powell spokeswoman Peggy Cifrino told the National Journal that Powell and Obama held an “informal conversation,” adding “there’s no looming endorsement.”
Roxy4hill thanks sooo much for that video link! I looked and looked for it last night- I see now it was an mtv ad and not one of the paid ads going on mtv– it will be interesting to see those too in the coming weeks.

You areright the site is still up. The link has been removed,however if you go to the homepage there is a link in the right hand corner.
Roxy#35 - Thank you for posting the MTV commerical that I posted about last night - could not find it anywhere and there was HOPE that people are beginning to see the difference of CHOICE -
Answer to some of the posters above - we will just continue to do what we do - he will himself give the nomination to Hillary - just by opening his mouth daily - if she can only hang in there long enough -
Good Morning Pumas.
Alucard Rodham Puma here.
I went to that feminist? Liberal? website yesterday. It was, as many of you know, a potpourri of false & poorly researched. I did an response, but I must say I saw many of PUMA entries that were excellant. It was interesting that the Obamats were in attack mode, using language indicating many were young & poorly educated.
In any event, I think we are a great force and we should be proud of what we have & will accomplish.
I would, by the way, love to see Hillary be the candidate replacing BHO, as more is uncovered about him.
PUMA!!

What we need to find is an up and coming young journalist (remember what happened with the bitter and toting guns comment from a journalist and how it turned the tide) that we can feed so much of this information we have and let them make a stand for us - knowing that he or she will be victorious - helps us - helps him or her - anyone have a family member that is a journalist ready to take on such a challenge??

#74 You’re welcome. I also saw the commerical last night and found it to be simple yet to the point.
I also agree that the more *61 talks the better chance HRC will have in Denver. Judging by the comments by *61 supporters on various issues he is SINKING fast, the thrill is gone.

The Clark affair continues into day four
Three things have prolonged this story.
First, Wes Clark’s decision to not only not apologize but to keep appearing on TV yesterday to discuss the matter, which he did yesterday.
Then, Obama’s decision to not only not urge Clark to stand down but to say that the portion of his patriotism speech Monday in whichhe said no veteran should have his service questioned wasn’t actually intended as a rebuke to Clark.
And finally McCain’s decision last night to shift gears from his “I want to talk about the issues” posture.
“I think it’s up to Sen. Obama now to not only repudiate him, but to cut him loose,” McCain told reporters aboard his plane en route to Colombia.
Thanks Spark, what is ymail?. I set up new email at gmail but I am afraid to use it until I hear back from Murphy and MamaPuma. They are investigating.
I have to be real careful because I operate business on my regular email and can’t afford to compromise.
So if anyone else out there has been attacked, please let one of them know asap.
See what calibre of people we are dealing with. Won’t stop me. Just gives me a push to carry on.
Anyone who can help me.
I am not that computer savy how do I get a puma gmail…I currently use my work email address however one of these days…..
Does anyone have any updated info concerning how much money the Clinton campaign has raised to help pay down the debt before the DNC convention?
Gallup Poll just released this morning that one of our HRC demographic groups - HISPANICS are solidly behind the no named one 59-29% - anyone here have Spanish speaking skills that can write to the editiors of the the Spanish Newspapers and blog there - this is an important and huge group to go for him - I know we have Spanish flyers - but need to get out to the major newspapers what we know -

http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/06/23/sanchez.obama/index.html
#101 Peg - that is a good idea! would you email marylandpuma@gmail.com with your concept? that would make a cool daily growl.
This occurred to me this morning - when this Obama takeover was planned, no one knew who the Republican nominee would be. As someone else said, they accidentally nominated the one Republican who has gone against Bush policy when he disagreed with it. Who is seen as a maverick, not a Bush yes-man.
Obama isn’t suited against a candidate like this. Hillary is.

Kenneth Vogel is a journalist for Politico. He appears to be very fair and balanced. If I remember, Vogel wrote the article that major newspaper editiors were disappointed with *61 opting out of public financing for the GE.
On Tuesday, I mailed 21 PUMA flyers to Hillary donors and blogged a letter about *61’s hypocrisy on racism on a pro_61 magazine website.
I am off to work!!
Go Team PUMAS!!!
Goalucard4Hill, regarding “journalist”:
read Marc Rubin’s stuff. He’s not only a journalist/editorialist, but has career in advertising and he’s damn good. Go to:
http://tominpaine.blogspot.com/
He may want to help since he’s already a viable leader in the newest Denver Group. He may have already written that key copyline within his pieces. But definitely ask him first before using.

@alucard good morning! I’m glad i got to see the mtv spot; I can see wym now
:)– Also that is a very good pt about Hispanics the fastest growing demographic. It is interesting, since they were so pro Hillary in the primary etc at 2 to 1 margin. I think Obama is trying to align McCain as part of Bush’s failure in securing borders and US-Mexico reform? Obviously we know GWB was just a little more than preoccupied w/ the iraq war.
I’m having trouble with my gmail, also. It kept flicking, refreshing itself and not letting me actually access my mail. Finally, I clicked the link dowm on the bottom right had die of the page that I could see for just a moment:
“set to HTML only” and it took it about 30 seconds to reload and finally ley me in.
The Page looks different- not as many bells and whistles, but at least I can getto my mail.
Once in I set the default to HTML only (link at the the bar of the mail page).
I probably need to set up a new mail, also.
P.S. There are thousands of BO supporters who work at big internet technology companies (like Cysco).
They are brilliant when it comes to backdoor hacking of sites, emails, etc.
Maybe it is time for an “action letter” from PUMAS to the Department of Justice?
@104 good pt !
#109 - Wontbackdown - I, too, had a problem with the Gmail today - I just shut down the whole computer - rebooted and Up I came - if you go into mail.com - and if you can stand all their ads - you can find a listing of dozens and dozens of different email accounts you can set up for free
#108 KyKitten - glad that you got to see the MTV commerical - it was good wasn’t it - first choice was Hillary, then McCain -
#106 and #105 - Hill4Me and EWard - thank you for the names of the journalists - lets see what I can come up with BEHIND the scenes with them - will probably call upon Pumas to give me accurate and not rumored information to see if either or both of them will go forward with it - EWard - you are a busy one just like our HRC website.
In case you were wondering why I use Rodham as the middle name - as we were doing last night - there were several young people on the local TV station that had changed their middle name to Hussein as supporting of the no named one with all the attacks being placed upon him - so they are taking on the attacks as well - that is why I am now Alucard Rodham Puma.
Have a good day all
Dragonfly - have sent email.
Yes. Pumas are true democrats for HRC. 18 millions core democrats = HRC. HRC = 18 millions core democrats. BO is the BUSH 3 according to his voting records. BO is an outcome of Republicans - 11 Caucus of red states, designed to defeat Democrats.
I posted this downstairs and now…well, I’m posting it here lol:
Does anyone else think its funny just how paranoid looney b (Donna B) is getting?
First she was mad at us and now she thinks we’re all a bunch of Republicans. This is their new strategy?
its amazing, she went from mad at us to paranoid that we’re a bunch of republicans.
Why, if we’re Republicans, would we be mad that NObo is the nominee? Wouldn’t we want him to be the nominee? We all know Hillary can beat McCain…why would a bunch of Republicans want her to get the nomination?
Because we wouldn’t vote McCain? Well, I think most of us have already said we would so that’s not the reason we’re mad…hmm…maybe, just maybe we really are Clinton supporters!! GASP! Dean! Did you catch that! Or did I type too quickly for you lol.
If you are curious about Obama’s sweet deal on his mansion and how his lender contributed to his campaign, check out this well done article:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/07/01/AR2008070103008.html?wpisrc=newsletter&wpisrc=newsletter&sid=ST2008070103301&pos=
By the way, did anyone know that his house has six bedrooms, four fireplaces, and a marble power room? nice upgrade from the $415,000 condo.
#109 - Well I am for doing something, anything. Gee, this is afterall against the law is it not?
Oh , forgive me, I forgot Ovomit can do whatever he wants. Rules don’t apply to him.
Can’t these acts be traced back to a certain ISP address? I am not all that technical savvy, but I thought there were ways.
This is serious and I think somehow,someone, should be accountable. If they are doing this from a major company then that company should be held responsible .
Hope everyone that was affected is sending email to Murphy. I think they are keeping records and researching.
Have to run for a while. Happy posting everyone.
SHEILA7 - Haven’t forgotten you. Just afraid to use my email just yet. Hope you weren’t affected along with some of us.
Hey, Pumas - if anyone would care to check out this letter, I am trying to help MarylandPuma with a growl. Once approved, this letter will go on PUMA letterhead. Right now, it’s probably too long, but I am not ready to cut it yet. What do you all think?
July 2, 2008
Via Fax: (615) 327-1323
Office of the Honorable Al Gore
2100 West End Avenue Suite 620
Nashville, TN 37203
Dear Mr. Gore:
I am a loyal Democrat who has followed your career for over twenty-five years. Your record of service demonstrates your deep commitment to our country and what is best for us as a people. In light of that, your endorsement of Senator Obama is confusing. I write this letter to urge you to support Senator Clinton in August and to do all you can to encourage other superdelegates to support her as well. It is my sincere belief that the well-being of our nation depends upon this.
My concerns about Senator Obama are difficult to explain thoroughly in a letter. One significant issue is the devolution of our political discourse and the election process. Not only have Senator Obama’s supporters used bullying tactics to attack those of us who support Senator Clinton, but also the media and various party leaders have participated in misogynistic attacks on Senator Clinton. Premature calls for Senator Clinton to end her presidential bid were demeaning to women and damaging to our political process. Moreover, allegations of voter fraud by Senator Obama’s supporters have been largely ignored. That the RBC violated its own rules on May 31, 2008 to “select” a nominee irreparably taints Senator Obama’s candidacy.
Senator Obama’s record as a senator, remarkable for how many times he voted “present” rather than take a stand on issues, is not reassuring. Moreover, Senator Obama has the responsibility and authority to convene hearings on Afghanistan, but for over a year he chose to campaign instead of provide the leadership he claimed was so sorely needed in the Middle Eastern conflict.
That some of his supporters are characterizing Senator Obama as having “judgment” superior to Senator McCain is laughable. How can I support a candidate whose allies include a divisive figure like Reverend Wright? Conversely, how can I support a man who disavows his own pastor after a twenty-year friendship? I might have respected Senator Obama had he urged people to understand Reverend Wright’s anger rather than doing the politically expedient thing. In any event, that Senator Obama associates with unremorseful domestic terrorists like William Ayers and swindlers like Tony Rezco is quite enough for me to conclude that Senator Obama lacks the mature judgment required for my President.
Furthermore, I have no confidence that Senator Obama will be the leader we need on energy and the environment, and I know you must in your heart feel the same way. Senator Obama is out of touch: he admitted ignorance of the Hanford site in Washington State. This is extraordinary. Audacious indeed for Senator Obama to present himself as prepared to lead when he is unaware of a multi-billion dollar clean up site where radioactive releases occurred from 1944 through 1972.
Senator Obama is also selling himself out to special interests, regardless of his rhetoric. For example, as reported in the New York Times, executives and employees of Exelon, based in Illinois, have contributed at least $227,000 to Mr. Obama’s campaigns since 2003. Exelon failed to inform Illinois residents of radioactive leaks from its nuclear plant in 2007. Contrary to Senator Obama’s rhetoric in Iowa, he did not pass a bill requiring nuclear plants to report leaks promptly. Instead, he allowed the bill to be diluted in committee to nothing of significance and it failed to pass the Senate.
Additionally, in November 2007, Obama opposed a bill that would have reformed the Mining Law of 1872, which as you know allows mining companies to pay a nominal fee to mine for gold, silver, and copper without paying royalties. The bill Senator Obama opposed provided a revenue source to clean up abandoned mines, which is likely to cost taxpayers over $50 million, and addressed health and safety concerns in the eleven affected western states. Significantly, one of Obama’s key advisors is a Nevada-based lobbyist in the employ of various mining companies, which were making millions without having to pay royalties.
Finally, I cannot help but point out that Senator Obama is a big supporter of corn-based ethanol which is well known for being an energy-intensive crop to grow. Research from multiple sources indicates that seven barrels of oil are required to produce eight barrels of corn ethanol. Senator Obama voted in favor of $8 billion worth of corn subsidies in 2006 alone, when most of that money should have been committed to alternative energy sources such as solar, tidal and wind. Senator Clinton has a commitment to alternative energy sources that would create jobs and is consistent with the science. Senator Obama’s preference for corn-based ethanol gives him a talking point that is a red herring, and in fact encourages continued dependence on oil.
Many of Senator Clinton’s supporters are hopeful that because she has merely suspended her campaign, there is still an opportunity for superdelegates like you to vote at the Convention in a manner that is consistent with the popular vote. I am sure you are aware of Senator Clinton’s demonstrated commitment to developing energy solutions and protecting our environment; accordingly, I would think the issues you have worked so hard to resolve would receive the appropriate focus from Senator Clinton. I can think of no reason you should favor Senator Obama over Senator Clinton. Please reconsider your endorsement and help Senator Clinton get elected to President of the United States in 2008.
Sincerely,
PUMA Democrat

Looks like this might be a site for decent discussion among those with differing view points-at least so far comments are indeed respectful
Hey Dragon Rodham Fly - I loved the letter and especially getting the environment into the mix was great too - don’t think it is too long - think it is very effective - could I use portions of it to fit in with some people that I want to “convince” changing their viewpoints from the no name to our HRC in August??
Drac Rodham Puma
Good morning all, the Wisconsin Dems are trying to unseat a National Clinton delegate because she publicly stated she would vote for McCain in November. I emailed the State party chairman, Joe Wineke at joew@widems.org and said this:
Dear Mr. Wineke,
I have watched nationally as Democratic parties have discounted the fact that our primaries and caucuses were very close this year. So close that we still are not united on our choice for nominee, in fact. You can ignore the fact that Senator Clinton had great numbers and an awful lot of support. What you can no longer ignore is that she also had the best credentials for leading our nation to safer and more prosperous times. The Democratic parties looked down on any who used race as a determinant in their choice, but did not flinch at the waves of sexism used against Senator Clinton. Remember “iron my shirt” and how everyone thought that was such a scream? Hey, everyone said, she has to take it because she’s entering a man’s world. If Senator Obama had been greeted with “fetch my car” would it have been as funny? The Democratic Party as a whole became a socialist party over the course of the primary season. The officials within refuse to see that almost as many of us as voted for Senator Obama voted for Senator Clinton. Throughout the latter half of the race before anyone knew for certain that the die was cast, the Democratic Party, MY party by the way, decided for all of us that Senator Obama was the nominee and we’d all just better step in line and support our party. Debra Bartoshevich has the right to stand up for what she believes is right. She has the right to represent Senator Clinton at the National Convention and she can decide that she cannot in good conscience support Senator Obama in November. Mr. Wineke, that is called love of country and it is something that all Democrats have. I applaud Ms. Bartoshevich’s actions and request that the Wisconsin Dems simply back off and allow her the right to choose.
Then I closed. I think he needs to hear from more of us. This may be done already, they filed papers on Thursday of last week, so they might decide soon. She deserves to go to National, period. Go get ‘em PUMAS!
Hi Pumas
Oflipflopobama is doing it. Self destructing.The faith based social program ??? who will oversee this program RD Wright ?
Mind control tools, brainwashing.
Please Bring Hillary Clinton Back NOW. OB is a mad train awaiting to derail and all of us with it. Enough already. Say no to the madness.
#68 SparkForHill on 07.02.08 at 9:47 am
Since they posted Murphy’s address, Pumapac should request Dean to provide security servide for Murphy.
—————————
My thought exactly. I’m sort of worried about Murphy with all this nastiness going on. Murphy! Be careful!
I like that “Rodham” for a middle name idea! What the heck -we can play this game well-we’ve been playing it a lot longer than many of Obama supporters-we lived through the 50’s and 60’s for cryin’ out loud
Just checked my gmail and it was fine.
#115 Dragonfly
His mansion also has 5 1/2 bathrooms.
Gostrumcat - remember you at HRC - I, too, have already written a letter regarding the delegate -
You are right MPK - MRodhamPRodhamKRodham - we have played this game long before many of the other side was born - and we can play it better as our cause is greater and more rewarding - because we KNOW the answers to HOPE and CHANGE. Not just words.

I really liked your letter to Gov. Rendell. Very nice and heart felt.
Lisa
Thanks PA4 Rodham Hill08 - YES that is what we are doing - like the old song whatever you can do - I can do better - they GOT LOTS of coverage even on the National News by adding his middle name - well we know we won’t get the coverage but enough EYES will see what we are doing - Grandkids want the computer so I am done for awhile……ya’ll keep on posting - love the enthusiasm - but seems a little quite today.
Hopefully Murphy will release a LIVE troll tonight so that we can get our engergy back. We pumas do like to play a bit as well as hunt.
Drac Rodham Puma
PA4HILL08, I will give your 20.08 and mine to hillary primary if you donate for me here.

I just want to say that I am praying that as PUMAPAC grows, all Pumas will be embraced, all Pumas will feel they are a part of the whole. As we have seen the Democratic Party disenfranchise some members, lets not allow that to happen here.

Obama Voters Protest His Switch on Telecom Immunity
WASHINGTON — Senator Barack Obama’s decision to support legislation granting legal immunity to telecommunications companies that cooperated with the Bush administration’s program of wiretapping without warrants has led to an intense backlash among some of his most ardent supporters.
Thousands of them are now using the same grass-roots organizing tools previously mastered by the Obama campaign to organize a protest against his decision.

Please watch this and help me spread this message to everyone!
THIS IS PROOF OF OBAMA’s HYPOCRACY AND THE DNC AND MSM ARE COVERING FOR BHO!!!
THAT IS CALLED TREASON IN MY BOOK!!!
I HAVE REPEATEDLY TRIED TO CONTACT THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA ABOUT THIS AND THEY “WILL NOT INFORM THE PUBLIC OF THIS!
THEY ARE TRYING TO CONTROL THE OUTCOME OF THIS ELECTION,
THAT IN ITSELF, BY DEFINITION IS “TREASON”
The Washington Elite that really run this country are trying for an empty suit so they can continue to screw the American taxpayers even more than they already have!
Sorry if this message is a duplicate, I have sent over 100 messages already and I am not keeping track of where they go!
Thank you for your time!

I like your idea of giving a double donation to Hillary for those who have maxed out in exchange for them making a double donation to Puma. That’s a great idea and I still have a little left to go to Hillary, so if anyone else would like me to donate to Hillary for them in exchange for a donation to PUMA, just let me know.
I thought originally the amount was $20.44, but now it’s $20.08, is that correct?
It’s a win, win, idea!!!
#136 Taffy - thank you for the link - y’all go to the message board and check it out. PUMA comments needed!
#146 utahpuma - I donated $20.08 twice last night - would someone who is maxed out contribute to PUMA Pac? We will need to advertise!

FURTHER TECH TIPS:
Be cautious when clicking on links that come from blog users you don’t recognize.
Get a disposable email that is NOT your blog name. Use Google or Yahoo or Hotmail.
Do NOT use the same password on your accounts. Make sure it’s secure by using a combination of caps, numbers, punctuation and lowercase that is at least 11 characters long.
Run a virus and malware/spyware scan bi-weekly. Increase the frequency if you click on a lot of links from the blog or visit a lot of sites.
IMMEDIATELY REPORT any email tampering to mamapuma@gmail.com, murphy@pumapac.org, marylandpuma@gmail.com. This is CRUCIAL. We do NOT release your email address to ANYONE, including fellow PUMAs without your written request.
DO NOT RESPOND to any spam or harassment you may receive via email. There is always a trail no matter how sophisticated your servers are. The only way to protect yourself is to NOT RESPOND.
Carry on!

I received an email from ClintonDems.com, it says in part:
Debra Bartoshevich is a Wisconson delegate for Hillary that declared she would vote for Hillary at the convention, but McCain in November because Obama lacks the qualifications to become President.
You may know that the Democratic Party of Wisconson is now trying to strip her delegate status.
Please help Debra by writing to the Democratic Party Chair and letting them know how you feel about punishing someone that supports Hillary Clinton:

Here is my letter to the Wisconsin Dem party:
I urge the Wisconsin Democratic Party to keep Debra as a Delegate for Hillary Clinton. Senator Obama’s tactics are anti-democratic, his “presumed” nomination has been achieved thru less than democratic means. In fact he is not the actual nominee until the vote at the convention is taken. Senator Clinton deserves to be represented by the delegates she has amassed, until the convention, when those delegates should be allowed to cast their votes. This is what the convention is designed to do…hear the choices and allow all of the delegates who have been sent by their constituency to choose the nominee by majority vote. Please don’t allow this undemocratic charade by the DNC and the Obama Campaign continue to poison America’s Presidential election and further divide the Party and the country.
Thank You

Time for another PUMA letter….go get ‘em PUMAs
Reposting from last night –
I received an email from Senator Clinton’s finance committee today with a request to help pay down her campaign debt. An exerpt of the email follows:
“In the next two weeks we are going to make a serious push in putting a dent in this campaign debt to pay off the vendors. It would help us a great deal if you would commit to raising $5,000 - $10,000 and have all of the funds collected and sent to my attention by July 11th. Contributions can be sent via mail using the attached form and should be made out to Hillary Clinton for President and sent to 4420 N. Fairfax Drive, Arlington, VA 22203 Attn; Finance. Contributions can also be made online at https://contribute.hillarycampaign2008.com/form.html?sc=3200. Obviously these are targets; whatever you can do to help — would be deeply appreciated. If you have already maxed out in primary funds, you will be unable to contribute towards the debt retirement…
We have been on this journey together with Hillary for the last 18 months, and yet there is still so much more to accomplish. A critically important task we can ask of you at this moment is to help us reduce the vendor debt.
Thank you again for everything you have done and continue to do to support Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party. She will never forget it. ”
If interested in helping out, and only if you can afford to and only as much as you can give, please use the link they provided above. It’s a secure debt specific donation link that goes directly to her website. If you want to mail a check instead, and want a copy of the debt donation form to submit to the Campaign office with it, email me and I’ll email it out to you. The form is in PDF format by the way. I do know there is a plan by many in the coalition to donate on the 4th, Independence Day, in an amount of $20.08.
Well… My gmail is back working normally now… I wonder if it had anything to do with suggesting a PUMA ACTION plan to file complaints with the Department of Justice? LOL!
Mayor if you go to Hillary’s website and click contribute…right above where you put your name there is a red link to contribute by mail. It takes you to the form you need to download and send WITH your contribution. hope this helps you and anybody else (it’s kind of hard to see the link)

Where do we go to donate 20.08 to Hillary, snail mail?
—————————-
Check out my post # 153. Use the link they provided in their email and it will go toward the primary campaign debt. She is now realigning her campaign website toward her Senate reelection (2013) and also accepting early donations toward that cause as well. So we must use the link they provided so that it clearly goes toward her debt. I also have the PDF ‘debt’ form for mailed in donations to her campaign office. If you want that, email me and I’ll email it out to you.
#146 Taffy - great link! This is a youtube link we ought to have on our page of links in the action center. Obama’s political career reportedly began with a fundraiser at unrepentant domestic terrorist Bill Ayers’ house! The video might make a good commercial for us if we get permission.

If you don’t get an offer by the end of day tomorrow,
I will make a double donation to PUMA for us.
I’ll wait to see if someone who is maxed out for Hillary wants to swap first.
I won’t forget about you. You know how we PUMAs are about never forgetting.
Thanks, PA. I donated several times but have never gotten any e-mails and thank yous from the campaign since. I was definitely notified that I contributed, however. I do want to help her in the future as well. I’ll work at the 20.08 contribution today. Keep posting your information especially in the evening. Many west coasters would like to help, but need to be reminded how and where.
I love the idea of adopting Rodham for our middle names

I only get the sunday paper so don’t know what flack she got from this. Her name is Sacha Millstone and she is from Boulder. She is an invesment advisor who spent 16 months volunteering on hillary’s finace committee. She says, “This isn’t about sour grapes. This is about the best candidate losing the nomination because she’s a woman. It’s the most blatant example of sexism in our society. This is about the party breaking my trust, women’s trust. And that can’t be fixed.”

“”Callme deaf and blind, as Millstone did more than once during our interview. But there is nothing at all feminist about quitting the party, refusing to vote Obama and threatening to back John McCain or any other candidate who opposes the values that drew devotees to Clinton in the first place.
Rather, it is the kind of hollow, self-defeating political overreaction that invokes the very stereotypes that cause women like Millstone to rise up in outrage.”

#38 Rafree, AMEN TO THAT. Wonderful…… What a great post. Stand up ladies that could be you, your mother, your sister or your daughter someday. Again Rafree great post!
BO kool-aid drinkers better get used to his flip flops because he’s moving to the middle. He’s acting just like a run of the mill politician - he pandered to the base during the primary and now he’s going to risk alienating them to appeal to a wider base. Same ole same ole. So much for the new politics of change! What I don’t get is that they’re surprised. We all know he’s just words.
He threw his grandmother under the bus.
He threw his long time friend/minister under the bus.
He’ll throw any previous policy stand under the bus to get elected.
I guarantee you he’ll throw his Iraq withdrawal promises under the bus if it suits his needs.

We’ll do, Mayor! Thanks for the reminder!
#117 Dragonfly That is a great letter!
Check the first paragraph, I think the last sentence. Do you mean DNC vs RBC. Is the spelling of Resko correct. I beleive the letter shows Resco. I’m pretty sure it has a k in the name.
On the ethanol segement, as CO2 emission is also a hot topic, it may pay to mention that to grow corn CO2 is doubled (from use of fertilizers, etc) to that of burning one gallon of gasoline.
Remailed my letter to Pelosi as requested!

Hey Maryland Rodham Puma.
We will not be causing Murphy’s “unaffiliated’ PAC status any heartburn with FEC will we?
————————–
Sorry, just re-read and not clear…
If we promote pay down the debt in a direct P.U.M.A. PAC Growl with P.U.M.A. PAC logos and such. Would that be in direct conflict with any FEC roolz for Murphy’s unaffiliated PAC status I wonder?

And one by one he will throw his supporters/kool ade drinkers under the bus. Looks like someone had better order a fleet of buses.
Greetings to All Pumas!
#181 cjv - thank you for the feedback! I will revise accordingly.
The limitations of the PAC are that we can not actively campaign FOR a candidate or have DIRECT contact with any of them. (meaning we can’t talk to her or meet with her.)
But we can request individual support.
#152 ABinNY:
I’ve copied your letter to Word and will change it up a little and send it off to Joe Wineke when I get back from my sales call.
Thank you for writing it up and bringing it to our attention.
