Happy Champagne Cat Thursday Evening Kickback!

Way to go Puma PAC! On Wednesday, July 10th we sent more than 35,000 letters to Undecided and pledged Clinton delegates in the Great State of Texas, thanking them for their support of the most capable and vote-winning candidate in United States primary history, and URGING them to INSIST that Hillary Clinton be nominated in the first roll call vote. We also reminded them that she will be the first woman in U.S. history to be nominated for president by a national party, but ONLY with their help.

35,000 letters in less than 8 hours. Let that sink in for a moment. Then enjoy a sip of champagne.

Now, listen to this. ADDITIONALLY, From 3:00 to 3:30pm today, eastern time, the members of Puma PAC made so many phone calls to the DNC Headquarters that we shut down their switchboard repeatedly for half an hour!

I say it’s time to bring a chilled bottle of champagne and a couple of fluted glasses out to the deck or the porch this evening and KICK BACK. Way to go Puma PAC!

Oh boy just went and posted over at Huffington Post
This Puma is mad and I’m not going to take it any more.
My post to them:

This is to the people who try to mislead the public by telling you that Puma is a front for McCain. Puma is not affiliated with any candidate or candidate’s committee. We are the voice of the people. We are NOT Republicans we are people standing up to what we see as a corrupt process. Obama was preselected to be the chosen one; I joined after being told on May 31 just how little my vote really meant to the (un-democratic) Democratic Party. In Michigan we not only voted but we came out in droves to vote for Hillary. We did this even after being told by the DNC that our vote would mean nothing. Radio stations and Democratic leaders urged Obama and Edwards supporters to vote “uncommitted” as a sign of these candidates support.
Obama , set up as our nominee was decided by crooked caucuses, backroom deals and picking and choosing what states get to participate in their process. The decision not to count certain states was protested in over-whelming numbers on May 31st. We are not happy, we are not fooled, we are not voting for him and we are not getting over it. If you- like us are angered by a party’s candidate selection instead of rightful election, using un-democratic selective vote elimination. Then stop listening to the lies and check out who we really are at

Really a good news day PUMAS - especially if we get goodnews about Hillary’s debt

Also, heard an interesting theory about JJ sr’s remark about removing *61 cajones (if he could find them first)- seems the precious one was thinking that we white voters were feeling that precious was really pushing for blacks to rule & that we whites might be feeling a little ambivalent about that so jesse makes his “remarks & gestures” in front of a supposedly “dead” mic & not knowing the camera is on him - now how many cameras do you suppose the man has been in front of in his years? duh………anyway, the remarks were to reassure all of us “whiteys” that not all blacks are praising & supporting the anointed one - that there might be a little distention in the ranks….

now that makes me just a tad bit pissed off - I guess that group really does think we are stupid and ignorant-if he keeps this up - there’s gonna be an uprising all right but it sure as hell isn’t going to be to elect him as pres - for sure, will not get to make his “rock star” appearance in the big stadium = I am really really really getting sick of this crappy stuff and I really really really do not not him & his supporters at all…………..to hell with all of them…………………

#12 tec1965 on 07.10.08 at 7:07 pm

ahhhh i was trying for #1 hehe oh well
hi pumas i am wondering do i send a letter to each of the 4 groups or just send it as 1 big group ??

#13 Pookie on 07.10.08 at 7:07 pm

Okay you ‘penny pinchin pumas’ I opened my 4 letters and removed my real pennies made copies and applied them that is soooooooooo funny that made my day, now the only thing we are out is envelope’s and stamps LMAO

#14 A-Will on 07.10.08 at 7:09 pm

:( Sad PUMA. I joined the first week and I haven’t been getting the action emails. I have had to ask for them every time and I guess today I didn’t ask in time, so I didn’t get to send my emails.

#15 Susie1945 on 07.10.08 at 7:11 pm

#17 wontbackdown on 07.10.08 at 7:11 pm

OKAY! I have an update on the role call issue:

Just spoke with the DNC to a gentleman named Ryan in the call center.

He received word from his supervisor, Alex Pullum, that a new communication was handed down from “higher ups” approximately 3 hours ago.

Hillary Clinton will, in fact, be the first name on the role call, which is to occur on the first day of the convention.

He also said that there was confusion earlier in the day due to lack of communication from the “higher ups”.

But now, they are to communicate to callers that there will definately be a role call and Clinton’s name is first.

That’s It. I’ll take it that is the final word on the subject!

Yea I know, I’m new to blogger so I’m not sure how to rotate up and down the different posts, can anyone help with that?

#20 Jeremy on 07.10.08 at 7:13 pm

Repost from down stairs–hope everyone is having a great Thursday Evening~

1.)Sent my emails to the Texas Delegates—10 minutes intervals. 4 bounced back and 2 said that their mailbox was full and 1 was an auto-reply that they were out of the office.

2.) Made the DNC call—-X3—unusual busy signal—one of those fast tones. Circuits could have been busy?

3.) Regarding the fall out of the JJ remarks–after thinking about it along with input from multiple analysis and then Tim Oliphant’s take regarding all of Barack’s issues on Hannity’s radio program this afternoon—in the long run Jackson is the won that will look bad and Barack will come out of this as “the victim.” JJ’s son did Barack’s work as far as smacking down this father’s remarks and refocusing the listener that of all people being a preacher, he should understand what Barack was saying regarding his Faith Based Initiatives in every community. In short, Barack is the winner in this. More so, he was not even involved in the fallout. The apologies came from the Jackson’s, received by Burton and Barack’s comments were announced by Burton.

4.) All of the above happening at the same time with the FISA vote. The comment thing over-powered the flip flop. Another shield of Teflon was there when needed.

5.) The FISA vote—some sources say this was a “direct order/suggestion” from the team in Chicago, i.e. Daley, etc. Also, the Repubs cannot use this against him when/if “Homeland Security” questions pop up. Pandering for the Repubs and that base.

6.) The Language statement—that, to me, got the most flack from the opposition and could be “baggage” down the road. That is my opinion and if you are blessed to be bi-lingual, I will be the first to say I am envious. Government, though, should not have any say in making it a mandate—suggestion, yes—government mandate, no.

7.) The happy faces this morning at the New York fundraiser—the “jokes” , the “give and takes”, etc—something—again this is my opinion is going on backstage. Hopefully what I feel with this is wrong, but be prepared for anything and it may be nothing at all.

#21 Susie1945 on 07.10.08 at 7:13 pm

#14 A-Will - Murphy - do you have mamapuma’s email addy for sad puma - can still send the emails - never too late………………… ;)

#22 Pookie on 07.10.08 at 7:14 pm

I had a thought when I was taping the paper pennies on. would’nt it be good to have a journal of all the things the puma’s have done for Hillary, so she could read it when this madness is over. what do you think?

#23 A-Will on 07.10.08 at 7:14 pm

#16 Taffy - I don’t know what “it” is, so I can’t send it tomorrow.

#24 GOSUEF4HIL on 07.10.08 at 7:14 pm

#11 susie1945- you know, I was very suspicious when I watched that piece yesterday, Jesse Jackson has been around a long time, the guy he was speaking to was looking right into the camera, go watch it again, it looked completely staged to me.
This is part of Barry’s pattern. He has someone say something outrageous and then he can denounce what has been said. It started when that woman from his campaign called Hillary a monster.
There were others in between, I can’t remember now but I really think the Wesley Clark comments were part of this well scripted plan.
Not to mention how they pad the audience every time he speaks. I would not have know about the rock concert in Oregon if I didn’t blog. When I read that he had a group of 75K, I knew something wasn’t right. He isn’t the pope for gosh sakes.
His whole campaign is smoke and mirrors. I hope he is stopped before August 27th.

#11 Susie1945 I hate to be cynical too but…

I think the game is “bad cop - good cop” and JJ was the match-striker guy on yesterday’s racial topic of the week…

…light the fire - let everyone else weigh in so BO can make another speech on the race issue.

I think there are a few of us in Tucson. Sometimes it feels like I am back in the closet, though with all the McCain and Obamalama ding dong supporters. I sent for flyers but still have not received them. Maybe they were sent to one of our other sisters here in town.
Nice to see you

Clink of champagne glass to us!

#30 Susie1945 on 07.10.08 at 7:18 pm

#24 GOSUEF4HIL - exactly - he pulls this all the time to deflect (teflon) something stupid that he does - when is the MSM going to see this? Oh stupid question - they’re still drinking the kool aid - I think we are the only smart people left in this country - we see thru this empty suit & see nothing - is everybody else blind???

#32 bluesgal on 07.10.08 at 7:19 pm

Since I didn’t get an e-mail from Hillary like I usally do when everyone else does, I was wondering if someone could tell me what the t-shirts look like that Hillary is offering and what color, etc. Also, can you send in the $50.00 donation and get the t-shirt thru the mail. Does anyone know?????

#33 Pookie on 07.10.08 at 7:19 pm

The nightly news is reporting that this Jesse Jackson comment is all made up to get Nobama points, this is just like Everything BO has done when his rates go down. I can’t imagine JJ being that stupid and you are right you can watch the man that is with him and know what was taking place.

#34 Taffy on 07.10.08 at 7:20 pm

Jeremy…he has started a blog and doesn’t know how to move some of the items on it. his blog is listed at #4

MURPHY AND ALL PUMAS, GREAT ¡¡¡¡¡¡,

I KNOW FOR SURE THAT HILLARY IS FEELING IMMENSELY HAPPY TODAY, BECAUSE ALL OF HER EFFORTS WERE NOT IN VAIN

#37 GOSUEF4HIL on 07.10.08 at 7:22 pm

#20 JEREMY- in response to your point #4, I forgot to mention that in my post above- he always has something at an opportune time. Remember every time HRC won a big state, he pulled out an endorsement the following day. Did everything he could to divert media attention from her.
I think this whole JJ thing was staged to divert from his FISA vote- I wonder how much money verizon has contributed to his campaign?
Another thing that was pretty much overlooked that completely pisses me off was that interview he did w/ “Access Hollywood”. Hello- he is a presumptive presidential candidate- not a movie star. And he (I hate to use this word but I can’t think of another) pimped out his family on that 4 part interview and then has the AUDACITY to say he should not have had his children interviewed.
Hello…any parents out there? If you don’t protect your own kids, who the hell are you going to protect? Do you feel safe with guy if Iran points a missile at us?
He said he got caught up in teh excitement and let the kids do an interview. We all know how much time and forethought goes into an interview, you don’t just get caught up.
Sheesh!! And I haven’t even had caffein since this morning, maybe I’d better go grab that champagne.
Cheers!

#38 NoBamaNoWay on 07.10.08 at 7:22 pm

Well, I have faxed yesterday, emailed & telephoned today; but still received the following:

My fellow Americans:

As your future President I want to thank my supporters for your mindless support of me despite my complete lack of any legislative achievement, my pastor’s relations with Louis Farrakhan and Libyan dictator Moamar Quadafi, or my nearly non-existent voting record while I present myself as some sort of bi-partisan agent of change.

I also like how my supporters claim my youthful drug use and criminal behavior somehow qualifies me for the Presidency after 8 years of claiming Bush’s youthful drinking disqualifies him. Your hypocrisy is a beacon of hope shining over a sea of political posing.

I would also like to thank the Kennedys for coming out in support of me. There’s a lot of glamour behind the Kennedy name, even though JFK started the Vietnam War, his brother Robert illegally wire-tapped Martin Luther King, Jr., and Teddy killed a female employee with whom he was having an extra-marital affair when she was pregnant with his child. And I’m not going anywhere near the cousins, both literally and figuratively. And I’d like to thank Oprah Winfrey for her support. Her love of meaningless empty platitudes will be the force that propels me to the White House.

Americans should vote for me, not because of my lack of experience or achievement, but because I make people feel good. Voting for me causes some white folk to feel relieved of their imagined racist guilt. I say things that sound meaningful, but don’t really mean anything because Americans are tired of things having meaning. If things have meaning, then that means you have to think about them.

Americans are tired of thinking. It’s time to shut down the brain, and open up the heart. So when you go to vote, remember, don’t think, just do. And do it for me.

Thank You.
Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.

I know what you mean. I stuffed my envelopes to the DNC with Hillary money and Puma checks. The checks were payable to Howard, Donna, and Pelosi…..they were signed by Rev. Wright, Father Phleger and Tony Rezco. I used puma stamps of course.

#45 goandersen on 07.10.08 at 7:27 pm

Dear Ms. Andersen:
Thank you for writing to express your opposition to H.R.6304, the FISA Amendments Act of 2008. I share your concerns and regret to inform you that this bill was signed into law on July 10, 2008, one day after Senate passage.

I am disappointed that the Senate voted 69-28 to pass the FISA Amendments Act, wh ich will deny American citizens the opportunity to seek justice in a court of law. Simply put, this law is a fig leaf that attem pts to hide the truth about the Bush Administration’s warrantless surveillance program at the expense of the rights of our citizens.

In an effort to restore balance to this legislation and stand up for the rights of the American people, I proudly co-sponsored the Dodd-Feingold-Leahy ame ndment, which would have struck the section from the bill (Title II) that effectively grants immu nity and blocks the courts from ruling on the legality of this program. Unfortunately, the amendment was rejected 66-32.

I believe it is the re sponsibility of the Congress to provide every tool needed to track down terrorists and protect our citizens. I voted to go after al Q aeda and Osama Bin Laden, and I will continue to support measures to achieve that goal. But we have another responsibility of equal importance - and that is our duty to uphold the Constitution and the rights of our citizens, and this law fails to strike a balance between these important responsibilities.

Please know that I will continue my efforts to expose the truth about the Bush Administration’s warrantless surveillance program and to protect national security while safeguarding America ’s precious civil liberties.

Again, thank you for writing to me. Please feel free to contact me again about this or other issues of concern to you.

Toooo funny - one of the superdelegates that has “befriended” me for the last couple of weeks - said he was out on business for a couple of hours and when he came back he had over 750 emails and closed his email system down - he hoped that we had sent them to the no named ones supers as well - and wished we all had something different to say - but we got their attention - he talked to at least 5 others who said the same thing with their emails - good job - Pumas.

What’s the difference either Jesse is actually saying something bad about Obama because he thinks it’s true.

or

They are admitting to the public that they make up things to inflate Obama.

I would think these are both negatives for him

I’m not actually watching the news I recieve everything from this from what you guys write ( am I missing something?)

#49 wontbackdown on 07.10.08 at 7:29 pm

#24 GOSUEF4HIL… Also… has anyone else noticed that there is always some hot issue “someone else said” that needs to be focused on when other really hot issues about BO’s position on something is exploiding?

Yesterday, the highly controversial FISA issue was passed and BO’s own website was in an uproar over it…

…and JJ goes on and all the news media focuses on his “nut-cracker” comment.

What a diversion. You bet it’s all calculated… they are paying millions of dollars every month to the best publicists, marketing strategists and image makers in the business.

Agree with you - and if you watched the clip they played - Mr Jesse says it not once but twice except the second time he leaves of the N@T’S comment. Also did you see the look on that guys face next to him….come on this was a plan. Mr Jesse has been around alot of media stuff good and bad and he knows mikes are never truly dead.
He always like to say - oh that was an off mike comment blah blah blah so that he can spin it anyway he wants…..More BS

Or the comment that the Chosen One and my relationship is strong enought to handle this….and then the Chosen One says ” I forgive you” booboohoohoo

hi peeps…. read this post on NoQuarter from a resident of Montana posted July 5th @ 22:43:16 from the blog “Obama on Independence: No Biggie”

“Hey now! I am in Butte Montana where BO visited yesterday. I can tell you for a fact that the crowd was not overjoyed to see him. They did not even cheer as his supporters went by. As I reported in my earlier post today BO watched the parade but did not participate in it. He also shut out hundreds of people for the picnic that was to take place after the parade. We had tickets and could not get in. It is my belief that he did this on purpose to close out the majority of the locals and use his own people who he bussed in.
…Butte is for HIllary and BO did not win over the majority of our voters here. Do not believe everything you see or hear. The media really played it up for him since the crowd was really not that excited to even have him partaking in our celebration. He caused everthing to be delayed, major traffic conjestion, closed the picnic off from the locals and made us all alter our holiday plans just for him. The only thing good about his visit is that it rained, hailed and blew 40 mp winds during the picnic! HAHAHHAHAAH”

This was posted on hcsfjm.com today by an active crusader for Hillary. I tried to check out the facts on justsaynodeal.com but was unable to verify the total amount of remaining debt there.

Subject HILLARY NEEDS OUR HELP!!!

Comments Ok everyone, here is some GREAT news!! PUMA PAC had sent out e-mails to call the DNC at 3 PM EST this afternoon and light up their switchboard with thousands and thousands of calls insisting that Hillary be on the first ballot for the Roll Call at the Convention. It was to be kept quite until after the calls were made. By the time they got to me and I started my spiel, they transfered me to the Chairman’s (Howard Dean) office and when they answered, I got one sentence out and they told me that Hillary would be on the first ballot of the Roll Call at the Convention and asked me to please spread the word and then THANKED me. WE HAVE WON THAT ROUND. Now we are working on getting 175 Delegates to switch and vote for Hillary and she will become our Nominee!!

The problem is they have now said she has to have her campaign debt paid off by tomorrow at midnight! Below is an e-mail I got from her and I donated the $50.00, but if you can’t donate that much, PLEASE, PLEASE GO AND DONATE WHAT YOU CAN FOR THE DEBT IS ALMOST PAID OFF!! Will Bower from Puma was on Fox at 4:10 PM CST and he said it was only about 5 million or a little under and he was calling on everyone in the Just Say No Deal Coalition to donate what they could to help her pay it off. I am now calling, no I’m begging for everyone on here between now and midnight Friday to please go and donate waht you can to help finish paying it off!! I called Hillary’s office and this is from Hillary and will go to her and NOT to Obama. He and the DNC can not touch it, so it is legit. PLEASE HELP HILLARY!!!

Anyone know how much she still owes for sure? Are we doing another campaign. I heard on FOx last nite that only 100,000 was received. Would love to know what’s going on.

#87 mpdamon on 07.10.08 at 7:51 pm

THE FOLLOWING IS A LETTER I RECEIVED TODAY REGARDING ONE OF MY PREVIOUS ACTIVITIES:

Dear M*********:

Thank you for your letter concerning impeachment proceedings against President George W. Bush. I appreciate the time you took to write and welcome the opportunity to respond.

In our last national election, voters expressed clear disapproval with the path this country is on. They are tired of partisan politics and of an Administration that pays little heed to the wishes of the American people. They want-and deserve-a Congress that holds the Administration accountable and fulfills its Constitutional responsibility to check and balance the Executive branch. I share this sentiment and am determined to work hard in the United States Senate to promote issues that are of real concern to most Americans, including the situation in Iraq and Afghanistan, homeland security, global warming, and the current state of our economy.

At this time, however, I believe that impeachment proceedings against President Bush will only divide the country even further, frustrating our hopes for a meaningful change in direction, while having little chance of success.

I have been deeply disappointed by many of this Administration’s actions and have been outspoken in those instances. Nevertheless, given the challenges our country faces I believe that we need to focus on constructive and cooperative steps that would lead us in the right direction. It is my hope that the next Presidential Administration’s actions will more accurately reflect the will of the people.

Again, thank you for your letter. If you have any additional questions or comments, please contact my office in Washington, D.C. at (202) 224-3841. Best regards.

Sincerely yours,

Dianne Feinstein
United States Senator

AND MY RESPONSE:

Have you noticed that Congress now has a (% approval rating? This should tell you something./
And when you consider how Democrats like yourself and now endorsing the selected nominee of the Democratic Party, don’t be surprised when that approval rating drops to 0% and you are all replaced
with representatives of the popular will.

I SENT A SIMILAR LETTER TO PELOSSI, RECEIVED A SIMILAR RESPONCE AND GAVE A SIMILAR REPLY.

PUMAs you will enjoy this.
My husband is a pilot. He retired from the U.S.Marines after serving for 25 years with his last assignment flying the then president of the USA Lyndon Johnson.

He took up his second career as a commercial airline pilot for American Airlines and flew all over the world but especially in the USA. His disdain and disapproval of my inability to keep time zones and cities of the USA straight would make everybody laugh and reach for the second champagne.

I hope to get tomorrow’s actions up before you are ready to act on them, but if not, we will just carry on, and do the best we can.

#48 wontbackdown With paying millions of dollars every month to the best publicists, marketing strategists and image makers in the business this JJ thing is the best they can come up with. That is pretty sad. This is the kind of person we want to run our country? Also I am no big fan of the FOX network but if this was a set up, then how could they play right into that. They should be smarter than that.

#109 Lin4Hill on 07.10.08 at 8:02 pm

Emailed the German Embassy just to give them my 2 euros worth. I think my German grandfather would be proud. It felt good to speak my mind, even if BO has changed the venue by now. I let them know he was not JFK and never would be and was not worthy of that historic venue.

As for the JJ flap: We’ve always been cautioned not to believe everything we hear or read. But this you can see and hear for yourself on TV. To think this was a deliberate cloaked overture to “older white folks” is an insult. My choice not to vote for BO has nothing to do with how he speaks to the AA community. It’s how he speaks to this nation, and most of his words are borrowed, as are his policies. He has an never governed. He has piggybacked upon legislation to fatten his resume, and he is riding a wave of youth-Hari Krishna-type-spouting followers who do not question the man.
PUMAS question the man.

#110 Jeremy on 07.10.08 at 8:02 pm

I went on to see if I could get a blog message on about Puma, paying Hillarys debt, etc…..but do not know if I will be successful? Should ppl go there and put a really good saying about the pic….from what I gather they look for the nasty phrases to win?
Anyone know how this works. Would like to put one there for the pic and see if it gets posted.

WOOING BO-PPL HAVING BUYER’S REMORSE

Now that many BO supporters are upset about BO’s flip-flop & vote on FISA and many are complaining in BO’s own website and elsewhere in the Web, maybe we can discuss ways to “compassionately” invite them to join our “Say No to BO” movement, as well as ways to accommodate them here. We have a good opportunity now to recruit some of those on BO’s side that are having buyer’s remorse.

I was reading some posts in liberal/progressive websites yesterday (after the FISA vote) and some BO supporters are upset enough to say they are considering not voting for BO, and though they are reluctant to vote for McCain, some say they are now considering voting for Nader or another third party… or staying home in Nov.

I’ve also seen that some PUMAs here have gone over to BO’s website and “set up a blog” there. I don’t know much about how to do this since I haven’t been over there. I do think it’s important, if we post over there (or in other sites) that when we try to convince the BO people, or invite them to PUMA, to be gentle, kind; to not resort to “make-wrongs”, put-downs, accusations or “I told you so”, etc.

************************************

Here’s something that one of our PUMAs posted here in yesterday’s blog:
“hotsky” wrote:

“”"I was just over at Obama’s web site! Oh, there are a lot of unhappy campers over there! And to make it worst they know HRC voted against it, though most refuse to give her much credit for that, some do.

If some of you have log on capabilities over there I suggest you post that you feel their pain and leave a link to puma. I would not go over there and sign up just because you want to post. Some of the bloggers are checking the profiles to see how long you’ve been a member and it’s pissing them off if you just joined today. More salt in the wound ya know……. and we all know how that feels.

We could get more members in the next few days so play nice, no “we told you so”.”"”

***********************************

And reaching out to our BO-supporting friends and trying to convince them, using the latest show of BO “flip-flops,” etc, is another way to reach out.
I would love to hear any ideas on convincing and recruiting disgruntled BO people. I have two good friends who went to BO’s side when Hillary “pulled out.”

–Landi, a proud male puma.

Can you elaborate a little more regarding AC’s request? As I have said earlier, I boycott CNN and really don’t like to filter through their webpage. I heard of “a picture” that was taken from their flight to NY and that she was in the front row of seats on the right side of his plane and that he was sitting either 2 rows back or on the second row on the left side. The press in the back were trying to “analyze” what it meant.

Re: Controversy precedes Obama Germany visit, 7-10-08, 7:58 PM EST

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0708/11675.html

“German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said she opposes the idea, referring to the highly symbolic landmark as an “inappropriate” setting for a speech linked to a domestic American political campaign.”

“German Chancellor Merkel’s office argues that allowing Obama to speak before the gate, long a setting for speeches by heads of state, would be tantamount to offering the Democrat the endorsement of the German government.”

#140 mpdamon on 07.10.08 at 8:31 pm

It seems like we’ve had quite an impact today.

If anyone is interested Cynthia McKinney, Presidential canidate of the Green Party had selected Rose Clemente to be her VP running mate. This is the first all female/all black ticket in US history. Quite exciting, to me at least, and worthy of consideration for my vote, assuming they get on the MA ballot.

Also, if anyone is interested, I have 4 e-mail accounts, all with diferent adaptations of my name.
Thus when I send mass e-mails, it appears to the recipients as though they are hearing from 4 different persons, with 4 similar messages.
Just a suggestion. Trying to maximize our impact.

“…here’s what is shaping up. I have been reporting from a reliable Israeli connected source that Obama is already booking appointments in Israel and will be there July 22 and 23. Stories from French and German news outlets put Obama in France and Germany on July 24 and 25 (those dates may be flipped). That leaves two countries to account for, England and Jordan…”

That’s the kind of response I expected from Merkel :) She faced a lot of backlash when she became Chancellor but she didn’t back down from any of it. I have a lot of respect for her, even when I don’t agree with some of her policies.

#70 over at the confluence they are having a fundraiser for Hillary. you can donate from their site and report your donation. the last time I was there about 30 minutes ago they had 5k in about 2 hours! I think the whole justsayno coalition is asking us to donate. So if you donated today, go over there and let them know.

Hi Trish!!!!!!!

#150 MamaPuma on 07.10.08 at 8:36 pm

Delegate Everhart
answered a letter from us with “get over it, loser.”
Maybe we should all send that delegate a letter:

Dear Delegate Everhart
It has come to my attention that you responded to an email sent to you from a member of the Democratic Party with the words: “Get over it, loser.”

I assume that you do not speak for the Democratic Party when you speak to a member of the Democratic Party in that way. To be sure, I will forward your response to Howard Dean, Donna Brazile and Nancy Pelozi. If they reassure me that my party is not that flippant, adolescent or unreceptive, that will be the end of that.

If not, then you have substantiated the need for the PUMApac movement. The delegates represent us the members of our party. They need to be ever open to our voices so that they can hear the voice of the people. They are free to disagree, but they are not free to insult, to dismiss, to abuse or to marginalize members of their own party.

maybe Delegate Everhart needs to hear from more of us on the need to be professional and courteous. Maybe the Democratic Party needs to alert their leaders to the way that their delegates are responding to democrats. Duh ya think maybe thats the problem?

I hope I didn’t misrepresent my comments when I said I thought the Jesse Jackson incident was staged. I don’t think it had a thing to do with white or black voters.
I think it was an effort to deflect the attention away from his pitiful FISA vote and angering his far left wing base.
The pattern is that he always seems to have an ace in the hole to deflect bad media and create a roar around himself.

No that wasn’t what I needed haha
on my blog I just wanted to know if there was a way to change the order of the posts, rights now its set at newst to oldes, but I want it at oldest to newest. Older post etc.]]

By definition a “blog” is arranged by newest post on top. Don’t know what software you are using… but on WordPress the only way to arrange a sidebar is to use the CATEGORY tab when composing PAGES.

Look into a software called, TYPE PAD

http://www.typepad.com

It is more versatile and I think articles can be rearranged via a control panel or even by drag and drop.

Cost $14.95 a month though.

Re: Judicial Watch files complaint over Obama’s mortgage
By Michael O’Brien, Posted: 07/09/08 04:19 PM [ET]

http://thehill.com/campaign-2008/judicial-watch-files-complaint-over-obamas-mortgage-2008-07-09.html

“A watchdog group filed complaints with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and the Senate Ethics Committee Wednesday against Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.) over a discounted mortgage he received from Northern Trust.”

“Judicial Watch, a conservative legal watchdog group, filed the report after The Washington Post reported that Obama received a discount on a mortgage for a Chicago home valued at $1.65 million. The complaints said the Illinois senator received a loan at the interest rate of 5.625 percent, which Judicial Watch says is lower than the standard rate of between 5.93 and 6 percent indicated by surveys.”

The complaint asks the Senate Ethics Committee to investigate whether the favorable rates constitute a prohibited “gift” under Senate rules.

“It appears that due to his position as a U.S. senator, Barack Obama received improper special treatment from Northern Trust resulting in an illicit ‘gift’ which has a value of almost $125,000 in interest savings,” wrote Judicial Watch President Thomas Fitton in a letter to the Ethics Committee.

The complaint also notes that Northern Trust employees have given $71,000 in donations to Obama’s campaigns.

I got exactly what you meant. The Chosen One did the same thing Thursday before the 4th of July weekend - I do not remember what the issue was but the Fox ppl said that is the way they do things so that not much focus gets on the topic. Because ppl especially with a Holiday are not watching MSM and by the time the wknd is over ppl has moved on, lost interested, or it is stopped being reported.

The trouble with speculating that BO’s decision to announce no more interviews with the kids is emulating JFK is that it was Jackie that kept the kids off camera and JFK would wait until she was away from the White House to allow photographers to take photos of them. If you were saying he is using his young family as yet another positive campaign ploy to remind voters of JFK family, I agree.

#177 Steve_in_KC on 07.10.08 at 8:56 pm

I’ve been lurking for several weeks now, with occasionally posts. I have some thoughts on the Jesse Jackson thing that I have not seen expressed here. I find it interesting and intriguing that the majority feel it was all staged to provide cover for BO’s FISA vote, and there may indeed be a lot of truth in that. I would agree that JJ is clever enough to know how to play the mic game. However, I had a totally different take on it.

My first thoughts, on hearing the news, then upon viewing the tape, were:
1. He’s one jealous guy, he can’t resist taking a swipe at this pretender, after all the years he went up against that wall;
2. He’s a friend of Bill Clinton, as best I know, and I had a gut feeling (maybe it’s a guy thing) that he was taking a genuine poke at BO in solidarity with Bill… something about the “nuts” thing just seemed very genuine to me; and
3. If the above are true, it would not surprise me at all if he was trying to drive a wedge between BO and the true AA people who would never put up with being “talked down to.” I say “true AA people” because he doesn’t really share their heritage and experience of growing up black in urban America, which goes back to the old question of “is he black enough?” Please don’t interpret these comments the way the Obamaniacs do, because I am speaking strictly on an sociological level.

Anyway, just thought I’d share my male perspective on the male ego element of it. Carry on! :)

COSMETA–Lloyd Bentsen in reply to Dan Quayle during a debate. It was a slam dunk. Bentsen controlled the stage and that debate, but he gave himself even more of a “house hold” name when he said “Mr. Quayle, I knew President John Kennedy and had the pleasure and opportunity to work with him in the Senate. And Sir, you are NO John F. Kennedy.” Not the exact quote, but close. Bentsen was a Senator representing Texas for many years, VP Candidate with Dukakis, and served for a short time in Bill’s cabinet during the his first term–or was a Senior Advisor. I would need to research more about that. Highly respected man.

One person said that Pumas suffered from mental disease and needed to seek mental therapy. Another said that they were having female problems and they should get over it. Very despicable material. In a very despicable post, one person said that Hillary was a prostitute that flip flopped more than Obama and would do anything to get elected.

Interesting. My son and I just had this conversation. Oddly enough, he takes your stand, that it was genuine.

Thanks for sharing the story about *61’s appearance in MT. It is very interesting to hear another perspective.

To me, *61 is similar to President Nixon. Nixon felt uncomfortable or ill at ease around certain crowds or groups of people. Everything had to be stage managed. *61 fits the profile. Why does anyone want to be President, when they are afraid of the same people that they are campaigning to lead?

I just returned home from work and missed the calls to DC.

#218 EWard on 07.10.08 at 9:29 pm

This is my take on the Jesse Jackson remark.

Jesse Jackson Jr. has an inside track into *61’s campaign. I believe it was Jr. that was behind all the intimidation and threats against the AA superdelegates that supported Senator Clinton. Remember Rep. John Lewis supported Hillary and called her family. However, many of them came under tremendous pressure to defect. Jr. has a lot of power in *61’s camp.

So there might be a generational divide among the older Jackson and younger Jackson. He always wants a part of the spotlight.

The bigger issue is we cannot take off our eyes on our goal to defeat *61. Let’s drive up his negatives. This is war!

#222 mzebest on 07.10.08 at 9:30 pm

I didn’t get home from work until now but I sent off my emails to the Texas Delegates (probably a little later than everyone else). I also wanted to comment that when sending these emails to a lot of people — I use the Blind Copy (bcc) option so that each person receiving the email can’t see who else the email was sent to.

I think this is a practice that we might want to encourage everyone to do. I address myself as the main recipient and then copy and paste all the addresses in the bcc box. If you use AOL — put a parenthesis around the beginning and end of the list to make it a blind copy.

Hope that suggestion helps.

#223 Taffy on 07.10.08 at 9:30 pm

* Where: Grand Hyatt Hotel, 1750 Welton St.

* When: 5 p.m.: VIP reception, tickets $10,000. 5:15 p.m.: general reception, tickets $1,000

#225 antifish on 07.10.08 at 9:32 pm

Taffy,

I signed up on the site for email alert if tickets become available. We should all do it. If BO is nominee, lots of empty seats, if Hillary is, we’ll be there for her!

#226 antifish on 07.10.08 at 9:33 pm

#222 goandersen,

That needs to be sent to mamapuma so she can send to proper regional pacmod.

#227 andy85719 on 07.10.08 at 9:33 pm

I’m feeling depressed. The polls keep moving in Obama’s favor. It doesn’t make any sense. Maybe this is how it was meant to be, America collapses from the inside. The radicals have finally gotten the reins and we are headed for a fall just like that of Rome. I hope it isn’t so, but I am beginning to feel it is.

I am just sort of winging it. I am sure there will be buses going from this area. I wanted to try to set up something for sleeping for those of us on limited incomes. Sleep on the bus, camp, ???

Anyone else on here in the same boat as far as housing goes??

#229 Taffy on 07.10.08 at 9:34 pm

He’s already said through our state dem site that a bunch of tickets aare being reserved for his staunch supporters in colorado and wyoming. then there are the delegates but they are putting 20,000 seats on the field. after he takes care of any other strong supporters the rest of the tickets will be up for grabs

#230 Jeremy on 07.10.08 at 9:34 pm

#199 Middle age female–Yep! There is something going on behind the scenes.

1.) We had the morning breakfast of the 2–together in NY. The link to the NYT article and picture is downstairs.

2.) Some “fuss” is being made about photos taken on the plane last night in route to this mornings event. Fuss is a broad/vague term—let’s say some in the press are talking about it. Upthread a poster said that AC360 was asking for input about a photo of the 2–that it was a contest for viewer’s input if dialogue was added in the photo.

3.) I view the roll call in 2 ways as of now. That could change with developing news. When the roll call is taken, and she is–let’s say–less than 200 delegates shy (hypothetical here) and remember they said today in the phone calls that it was going to be done on the first night? ****PUMAS**** if I am wrong, correct me here—the VP call is going to be thrown around again. Also, 2-3 days of Unity onslaught, not counting the Unity show happening now with paying down her debt and appearing together–along with Caroline Kennedy.
Reagan did not have a VP officially selected until that Convention started back in 1980 and it went back and forth until Bush was finally asked before the roll call. Just a hunch and I don’t even like to speculate on this one, but the VP drama is not over.
Again—another perspective view/hypothetical.

Polls are an issue of accuracy and validity. Most polls quote their accuracy but say nothing about their validity. Here is an informative website:
http://www.stonescryout.org/archives/2005/08/statistical_sig.html

There are alot of resources put into publishing biased poll numbers because of their known effect on campaign contributions.

The Gallup Poll is fairly reputable. http://www.gallup.com/poll/election2008.aspx

Hi Pumas - just watched H & C on faux news - howard wolfson from Hillary’s campaign is now on board - I think we’re gonna have to initiate that guy with a bunch of emails - he “understands that her supporters are still not completely with Obama, but come November we’re all going to enthusiatically vote for him”…………..welllllllllllll not exactly howie - he needs to be added to the list of outlets that get our emails - needs to know we’re not supporting Obama - that Hillary is our choice and that we’re protesting the 2008 selection process………………….agreed?????????????

#245 antifish on 07.10.08 at 9:43 pm

#199 MAF:

Nominating Hillary first is classic stagecraft. As a former rock band performer, I can tell you that “opening” for the main act is a “warm-up” position. In presentation, you want to save your best for last. This is their way of “getting it over with.” Put her out there first, let the long demonstrations of support go on and let everyone get it out of their systems. Then when the vote falls short of a win, as they predict, they bring out the big guns for the overwhelming finale. This gives her “her moment,” her historic nomination vote, then they bring down the curtain. They won’t try to make her look bad. They are confident she can’t win and that he has it locked up.

The only shock possible at this point, with so many pledged delegates in his favor, is the unpredictable element of the Super Delegates. If between now and then we are able to persuade enough SD to vote for her, it may deprive him of a first-ballot victory. At that point, all hell can break loose! That’s what we are aiming for! After the first ballot, if he fails to reach the winning number, the delegates are free to caucus again, as I understand it.

The most frustrating thing, so far, is the likelihood that she will not be actually campaigning for herself. We all hope that BO will have a Gary Hart or Howard Dean style meltdown before the Convention so she can pick up the torch! But it’s unlikely she will reactivate her campaign unless and until he implodes on his own. Otherwise, she’s the divisive one.

And the Republicans aren’t going to release the heavy artillery until they are sure who they are running against, so it’s up to the Democrats and Independents to make it happen.

#257 BrooklynNY on 07.10.08 at 9:47 pm

#192 Susie1945

Re: Arianna Huffington.

I saw her give a talk at a book signing in NYC not long ago for her latest book (forget what it’s called, obviously I DIDN’T buy it). She proudly announced she loved Barak Obama and no longer liked John McCain, who she formerly supported/might have even worked for him if I remember correctly (Maybe he rejected her pass at him - she used to love him too). She also mentioned that on NY primary day one of her staff, who’s a Hillary supporter, wanted to go vote, but Arianna tried to keep her at the office as long as possible, hoping she wouldn’t make it to the polling place in time. (The staff member finally escaped and did vote).

But to make a long story short, after I saw her at the talk, I googled her to get more information about her life, etc. and came across an article that described her life - how she married a very rich Republican politician, had 2 daughters with him, then they divorced after he announced he was gay. Yep. I kid you not. Anyway, she got tons of $$’s out of the deal. The article described Arianna, who’s Greek, as “the most upwardly mobile Greek since Icarus.” LOL.

A few nights later I saw her on Bill Maher. (Apparently, she dated Bill Maher for a while). It was quite humorous how she flirted shamelessly with Gary Shandling (another guest that night) while ignoring poor Phil Donahue, the third guest on the show, to the point where Phil even commented on “feeling left out,” or some such thing. Looked to me like she was trying to get Bill M. jealous. To his credit, Bill M. just looked amused by the whole embarrassingly silly scene.

#258 pumaindy on 07.10.08 at 9:48 pm

Purchasing tickets to Invesco might be donating $$ to DNC.

#259 mzebest on 07.10.08 at 9:49 pm

#204 goandersen and #254 EWard

I would also like to suggest that you don’t send a real penny. We need to deprive the DNC of funds and if millions send just one penny — that could add up to a sizable amount which would defeat our goals here.

Susie1945–Read my post #228 if you haven’t. I think Howard is now part of the PR (public relations) with having us all feel good about Hillary possibly being the VP. This is speculation on my part, but there is a synergy I am seeing and feeling between the two that I haven’t felt since back in Feb. when everyone began talking of “the dream ticket.”

#262 antifish on 07.10.08 at 9:50 pm

I saw too Colmes upset about FISA vote. The only thing I like about him is he used to be a Hillary supporter but someone slipped him some koolaid and he was gone.

But on the more important thing on there tonight that I am pi$$ed about is that guy Howard Wolfson. He said twice that Hillary “dropped out” of the race and he said it is no longer a race between Hillary and The Chosen One that is over - it is a race between The Chosen One and McCain. Who is this guy - said something about Fox News ? and Former Clinton ?

Does he need to get a letter sent to him. They should not be allowed to reword “suspended campaign” with all this other crap. I heard this morning from Rudy G (mayor whatever) that 1) Hillary can not win at the convention because the Democratic nominee has already been “decided” (Steve Doucy posed the question) and 2) the last thing that the Democratic Party want is a fight on the convention floor.

This is ridicious! and makes me very pi$$ed off.

#242 Susie1945 It’s hard watching all these Hillary talking heads spinning for BHO. Howie is paid now to be on FOX so he has to spin against Hannity and defend Obama, but I did not hear a 100% support in his voice.

#273 BillieJo on 07.10.08 at 9:56 pm

#17 Hillary Clinton will, in fact, be the first name on the role call, which is to occur on the first day of the convention.

I hope that isn’t the day they decided to cancel to save money. Probably not that stupid to do that to our girl. I know that Bill (and Hillary?) agreed to meet with Backtrack (borrowed that from another PUMA) and discuss what they wanted and would do. An attorney was put in place to help them decide and if she would be on the roll call was one of the top issues. The “higer ups” were probably the decision at that meeting.

#274 Taffy on 07.10.08 at 9:56 pm

Interesting…under our colorado dems site I was able to select a number of tickets. Under invesco my name just went on a list without asking for number of tickets. They gonna split up families????

You noticed that, too. You can fake somethings, but I have watched our Hillary for a long time. She has a body language presence that roars. And she is far from being anything close to a fake—there are just somethings that are obvious.

#280 Susie1945 on 07.10.08 at 9:58 pm

Thanks Brooklyn - I barely remembered what the thing was about because I wasn’t impressed with her - she reminded me of Helmethair Trump & his plastic ex ivana- wasn’t worth the time to care more -

Colmes is claiming on his show that he was a hillary supporter Huh?? since when?? never heard him sticking up for her but he sure is on the *61 bandwagon - guess he needs education too -

Mamapuma - we need to add Hannity & Colmes & Howard Wolfson to our email addys - faux news - did anybody ever hear Colmes cheering Hillary?????

I went to that site and it is not for free tickets - it is to register for alerts when ticket details are available and updates on the convention.
Am I missing something on the site for the free tickets.
I think they are doing it to see how many ppl are interested in the fact that the Chosen One is going to speak there and etc. JMO

#282 KENDALBLUE on 07.10.08 at 9:58 pm

Good evening Puma’s. This morning I turned on the news as “usual” and watched Hillary speak at the womens breakfast with Dumb A… once again about unity.!!! And later I watched c-span as the senate voted on Petraeus. I watched Hillary walk onto the floor for roll call.
I noticed right away she was still wearing the same suit from earlier at the breakfast with Dumb.A……..And as I watched the vote unfold, I noticed that no one seemed to be talking to Hillary. Then Biden pulled her aside, and they proceeded to engage in an intense conversation. Of course I couldn’t hear what they were saying, but body language seemed to be kind of intense.
He kept her there for a long while. It is just a feeling on my part, (no facts) but I felt she was being drilled.
She even wiped her eye right before they parted ways. The whole scene made me feel sick inside.

I just can’t STAND TO SEE PEOPLE TREATING HER BADLY.
And, I just can’t STAND watching her with DUMB A…..
It gets right under my skin, and all along I can see him fliping her off in one of his speeches. I hope the SOB fails miserably!!! I know my language is bea tonight, but I am really frustrated !! THE AUDACITY OF BHO.
JESUS H CHRIST…….WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE ???

#285 Hill4me on 07.10.08 at 10:00 pm

GOSUEF4HIL and Susie1945: Even MORE important was the fact that same weekend *61 was here in Portland, it was also the first weekend, since months of rain and grey-ness, that we had sun and blue skies! For all of you who don’t know much about Oregon, that’s a really BIG deal. Everybody and his brother, from “the homeless” and cruisers to entire families go to the many parks–especially Waterfront Park in downtown Portland–where *61 was strategically scheduled. Yes there may have been 75,000 people there that day, but when you add in the Music and the SUN and clear skies, his supporter numbers fall. Of course the Media & his camp would never report the facts this way.
But the weather played in his favor, big time–even more so than the Music.

C’mon. :) They’re hoping and a-praying it’s going to be Obama! Winning is going to be as easy for them then as shooting fish in a barrel.

And…Just because Dean and his partners in crime (and I don’t use those terms lightly) DON’T want a fight on the convention floor, well…..my message to Howard has to be, and I quote another more famous Rock Star, more famous, even, than Golden Boy: “Howard, you can’t always get what you want.” :)

My feeling exactly. I did not feel well last night and awoke to that event with OUR GIRL and The Chosen A@@. Instead of feeling better I felt worse.

When you watched it did you hear her say “ended my campaign” in one of her sentences? I did and have been trying to find a link to watch it but can’t. I check Fox, Cspan, and a few others….any suggestions? I do not think the whole thing will be replayed anywhere? The other thing was his disregard for asking ppl to help pay her debt….he says he forgot to mention it….what an A$$ Wh@le

#307 BillieJo on 07.10.08 at 10:10 pm

The problem is they have now said she has to have her campaign debt paid off by tomorrow at midnight!

WTHeck? Every time we turn around they move up the day the debt has to be eliminated. Why tomorrow? What’s the reason???

#308 vadaryl on 07.10.08 at 10:10 pm

Don’t forget how bias MSNBC has been. So FOX is the only one remaining.

#309 catsrlove on 07.10.08 at 10:10 pm

I am really late today. Had a crazy day at home..

I received my fliers today. They are stunning.. Thank you so much.

I intend to send some to my Sister in Erie to pass out..

On CNN tonight they said that Hillary’s debt was $23M.
I thought it was lower than that.

Did you hear about last night’s fund raiser? Bo insulted Hillary again. He made his speech, but forgot the purpose of the fund raiser. He didn’t mention paying off Hillary’s debt. Then the idiot came back on the stage, had the music stopped, and then mentioned Hillary’s debt.

I feel so sorry that Hillary has to put up with his continuous insults. Can’t wait until he is defeated.

I’m beat. Talk to all of you tomorrow..

Saw Will on T.V. today with our coalition’s donations to Hillary’s campaign debt. Very impressive..Obo is probably thinking seriously about taking Hillary on the ticket with all her support-(hold the nose) she deserves to be #1 only.

#312 Jeremy on 07.10.08 at 10:11 pm

Upthread, Hillaryistheone commented that she didn’t appear to be happy there. ( meaning today’s event?) I read it so quickly and mentally block out some words when I have hypotheticals jumping around—I will take issue with that. She appeared relaxed and happy to me. The give and take between the two set something off in my “investigating” hobby. Then I began adding the interest with the campaign plane flight last night and some media buzz—the Carville acting surprised regarding a “leak” of something not being “good” inside the two camps–Clinton’s and Obama’s—like he was “huh???”—then this miscommunication as proven by the phone callls to the DNC regarding Hillary not being on a roll call vote is corrected and that she will be on a roll call vote–opening night. Connect the dots. Howard is just one of many doing his job.

Well, I guess he’d have had to be bisexual if he fathered 2 daughters, but I do believe the article I read said something about him living a gay, not bi, lifestyle presently, although I didn’t pay all that much attention to the specific details of his life - main drift I got was that they’d parted and he’d come out of the closet. So maybe it was a bi-closet, not just a gay one. To each his own.

I was thinking that Puma could set up a room at Lively, that new thing from google. Yourselves cats. I think it would be a great idea. People can stumble into your room there to. You could have clips of Obama lying and Hillary making speeches. The software is free to download an most of it works of the internet browser. It might get a little slow with all the Pumas. I have nothing to do right now. How about I set it up. Since I am not exactly a Hillary voter but am extremely sympathetic to your plight I could call it the PUMA and NOBAMA room with the purpose being the collaboration on strategies to undermine the Obama machine. It might be very popular.

You are so right. Hannity does say what he thinks about OB and what he finds out.

I was watching O’Reilly last night and he asked if the viewers would aswer in a poll on his site if they think OB will come on his show. I thought to myself , of course NOT, he don’t want to answer any hard questions. He’s the only one that hasn’t come on his show and we all know why. He couldn’t handle O’Reilly. He’s not a quick thinker like Hillary and he has always got all the easy questions or copied off of Hillary. Or say, I agree with Hillary. How many times have we heard that?

#325 BillieJo on 07.10.08 at 10:16 pm

#280 KENDALBLUE We have all experienced how badly Hillary has been treated in one way or another. It breaks my heart to see it too, but it feels good to know she is building an army to defend her and soon she will be aware of it if she isn’t already.

#326 andy85719 on 07.10.08 at 10:17 pm

I definitely understand the Republican part of it - it was the word he used “Decided” and I wish I could really remember for sure but as I said woke up to it - I thought he originally said “Selected” nominee. That word caught my attention.

BrooklynNY@@@@@@ I could be wrong, but I thought that Biden had come out and said that we must be united. Again, I may be misinformed. But the whole scene made me feel sorry for her. I watched senators walk right past her. She seemed out of place.

Maybe I am just defensive about Hillary. She was treated so badly by so many of her own party.

CTK@@@@@@ I know what you mean. I didn’t realize just how sexist our society was until this primary happened. I knew it was previlant, but not to that extent. It has really awakened me. And I am forever changed by it. Mad as hell, and I am not backing down.

Your comments about Hil and the Senate make me very sad. I don’t doubt you’re right and what you say happened, happened. Remember the Senate is basically filled with a few stars and lots of followers. Followers tend not to make a move until the know it’s “safe” to. So, since they don’t get know who’s gonna win this battle, despite what everyone is telling the world, i.e. that it’s a done-deal, they are all covering their backsides and going along with the bullies in the party, lest they become targets too. But just you wait if Hillary does pull this one off, they’ll all be her “best buddies” and tell the world they were behing her all along. Yeah, behind her with a knife.

To hold our party accountable for the corruption and blatant breaking of our constitutional laws in order to fulfill their agenda for SELECTING the worst, and most ill informed candidate in history. All for the sake of POWER.

About Hillary and Bill — they are two very smart people who have been swimming with political sharks for a long time. Like good chess players, they probably saw this scenario unfolding months ago and have a few moves up their sleeves.

That and more… I am saying that TED KENNEDY and Howard Dean have staged this whole election season to favor BHO. I am saying, Ted Kennedy is in back of this whole thing…. to save his family’s legacy. And to honor that, BHO is trying to emulate JFK …. but when he realized his kids would be hounded by the paparatzi (sp) he *changed* his mind (there’s that biggie “C* word again… and then said, it was a mistake.

What an idiot!

#366 KarlaforHillary on 07.10.08 at 10:42 pm

Did you all get your letter from the DNC? It is too long to post the whole thing, but I will post some excerpts of it:

…While we know that not everyone will be happy with this solution [FL & MI getting seated with 1/2 votes], it is the best solution possible within the rules of the party and that is fair to all everyone involved. This was a decision based on Party rules and procedure, and was not made by influence from campaigns. . . This decision, reached within the rules of the party, brings us one step closer to unifying our Party in preparation for taking back the White House in November. Governor Dean and all of us at the DNC worked very hard to ensure a primary process that was fair to all candidates. Now the Senator Obama has won the nomination, we will fully support him. . . We understand that the delegate situation is frustrating, but we are confident that we can unite behind our values as a Party. . . There is much at stake in the 2008 Election and I hope you will give serious consideration to what Senator Obama is offering our country.

Sincerely,

Michelle Rose
Constituent Services

Boy was I mad when I read that. Obama the nominee??? Bull$#&^ Of course, there was no mention of Obama receiving delegates when he wasn’t even on the ballot, or receiving delegates that were stolen from Senator Clinton.

I haven’t written my letter back yet, but it will be a doosey when I do. There was nothing “fair” about their decision, this party will not be unified unless Hillary is the nominee, and I will NEVER vote for Obama!

#367 jbjd on 07.10.08 at 10:42 pm

#17 Wontbackdown

No, that’s not ‘it.’

Someone commented below she asked the DNC staffer who told her that HRC would be on the ballot at the convention for a roll call vote, to issue a press release confirming what he said. Not surprisingly, the DNC staffer answered, ‘No.’ I was stunned. Given that we do not trust the DNC to place HRC’s name on the ballot, why would we trust their promise to issue a press release to lock in their words? We want to hold them to their ‘promise’ to allow her name on the ballot and so, we should issue the press release. Briefly, we could announce that members of PUMA today called DNC headquarters seeking assurances HRC’s name would be placed on the ballot for a roll call vote at the convention, concerned the DNC was trying to limit her role there by moving up the deadline for her to retire her campaign debt to tomorrow. We should point out that DNC staffers initially informed PUMA callers the decision as to whether she would be allowed onto the ballot would not be made until the first day of the convention. However, they later clarified that this decision had already been made.

Our issues - BO votes with President Bush on FISA, HRC says no; candidate ignites another international incident by taking his Presidential campaign to the Brandenburg Gate; Judicial Watch files ethics complaint charging major BO campaign contributors Northern Trust presented him with sweetheart deal on home mortgage; and HillaryGrassrootsCampaign.com announces Just Say No Deal’s 3-day fundraising blitz reaps gold for Hillary Clinton - should be leading the news cycle. Not whether JJ knew his microphone was live when he expressed his desire to separate BO from his testicles.

#33 Pookie said this blog is now the only source for her news. I am certain she is not alone. David Axelrod might be a brilliant campaign manager; but Barack Obama is not a formidable candidate. The only way DA keeps his man on top is by keeping everyone’s eyes off the prize.

#368 BigCatLover on 07.10.08 at 10:43 pm

Since some others have brought up the VP thing for Hillary, I have to admit that the vibe I am getting is that the push to get her debt paid off is so that she won’t be vulnerable to right wing attacks about being in debt and so not a good VP choice for Mr. Magic. I hope I’m wrong because I don’t want her anywhere near his administration or being blamed if he loses in the general election.

The wording of the DNC’s response to your concerns could be “Exhibit A” in support of one of the goals of P.U.M.A. pac: responding to ‘the dishonesty of the DNC’ (to say nothing of the implicit sexism in assuming that as a woman, you must have based your objections to their conduct on your lack of information or understanding).

For all of you who are tempted to scrutinize the ‘rules’ to find explicit justification for such conduct as taking delegates away from Senator Clinton, in Michigan, and awarding these to Senator Obama; or awarding him delegates resulting from votes cast for “Uncommittted,” I assure you, no such mandate can be derived from DNC rules. However, the rules say, the DNC must allocate delegates according to a ‘fair reflection’ of the voters’ intent. When it comes to allocating delegates resulting from the voters’ vote in Michigan, the DNC, exercising its discretion, determined Michigan voters meant to give 4 of the delegates they voted to HRC, to BO, instead; and all of the delegates they voted to Uncommitted, to him. Explicitly, the RBC stated they based their delegate allocation in Michigan in part on the results of exit polling.

[[ My first thoughts, on hearing the news, then upon viewing the tape, were:

1. He’s one jealous guy

2. He’s a friend of Bill Clinton, as best I know,

3. If the above are true, it would not surprise me at all if he was trying to drive a wedge between BO and the true AA people who would never put up with being “talked down to.”
]]

I don’t know if it’s jealousy as much as, a resentfulness to his youth and inexperience… of claiming to be for civil rights when he did not come out of that era. So I think its a matter of age difference and of generation gap…. the past vs the future… A conflict on where each of them wants to take this country.

When I listened to JJ’s response it seems like he wants to place more of the burden on goverment whereas BHO’s father’s day speech is placing the blame on the individual black person.

I think they are both right in their own way… but which one wins out is another story. Either way, something must have happened behind the scenes that we are not aware of… Like BHO’s people telling JJ and Al Sharpton and Rev Wright to shut the !@#$ up until their man gets in.

Bottom line is… I think JJ and others are getting impatient of having to tow the BHO line…. basically because he is throwing them all under the bus for the sake of getting the whitie vote… and they don’t like that.

To make that clearer… they are now finding out about the real BHO and a split among blacks is starting to creep in.

IMO

I heard on FOX tonight someone critiquing the way the JJ incident was handled (think the guy was Bernie Kornberg or something like that, he’s a media guy of some sort anyway). He said they shouldn’t have “cut off” part of the scene. He didn’t say what was in the part, etc., and the anchor, think it was Bill O. admitted that part of it was cut off.

Great article. It really made me stop and think. I have to agree with the author. I sure hope that Hillary can get rid of her debt without any more help from *61. It would be a great relief to all of us and to her and her family I am sure. It is very demeaning for her and for all women that she has to go through all of this crap with him to retire her debt.

I agree with you. I called 3 times today and got diff answers all during this time when they said things were changed. The last person I talked to in length said he guaranteed me that she would be on the role call and everything ppl have heard to the contrary was incorrect.
I pressed and pressed and suggested that BeanieHead to a press release, appearance, media ticker something to let ppl know for sure. Asked if he planned on doing that and the guy said there was no information on that at this time.

I will not believe it til it is in writing , which they can still flip flop out of it but at least we have the original statement to go off of it that happens. JMO

Howard Wolfson was absolutely brilliant tonight on FOX, where he is now a commentator. I’ll try to capture his brilliance.

He was asked, given that you know more about Hillary than anyone else, tell us, are the rumors that BO might ask her to be his VP true? HW responded immediately.

‘I honestly don’t know,’ he claimed. ‘But, she has 30+ well-documented years of public service (here he specifically listed tax returns and records, as well as all of her major accomplishments), everyone knows where she stands on all the issues (here he specifically listed her views on FISA and energy) , and concluded therefore, BO could be flying under the radar in vetting her for the position because she has already been vetted.’

I taped the show for overnight and will revise this posting as appropriate.

#406 cosmeta on 07.10.08 at 11:06 pm

Just think….

Besides the impact we are having now…
Come the Convention…
If Hillary is not chosen as the nominee…
And not chosen for VP…

Those who are pushing for the VP will then join our movement to switch over to McCain.

That is that many more to spread the word to those who have not been following the Primaries about the unfair dealings of Howard Dean the DNC, May 31st plus the convention.

The more the merrier I always say!

By the time we are finished with the DNC, BHO would have lost about 33% of the democratic vote in my opinion.

I think the beef between JJ and BO is an ideological one. Jesse comes from a different era, granted, but he’s been in the trenches a lot longer than BO has and I think he realizes that no matter how “responsible” young Black men are the deck is still stacked against many of them in some powerful, difficult-to-overcome ways. They do need government involvement and programs to help them out of some of the desperate situations they’re in, i.e. the temptation of gangs, dangerous, crimer-riddled inner cities, poor educational opportunities in many school environments, no support from families and/or communities, etc. Of course, all the govt programs in the world won’t help without some major element of personal responsibility, so I think both approaches are necessary….

Yet, Obama is a rather recent passenger on the Bill Cosby bus and I think he just hopped aboard a couple of days ago, for one simple reason: political expediency. Maybe he’s trying to win back those “typical White women, like his grandmother, or a certain generation…..”

Also, if you were a Jesse Jackson, or a John Lewis, or any other political activist from the 50’s, 60’s and beyond and you ACTUALLY knew Martin Luther King, marched alongside him, like Jesse and John Lewis did and maybe even got your head bashed in more times than not, wouldn’t you go flippin’ wild to hear Golden Boy compared to MLK, Robert Kennedy or any of those other greats from that era? I think I might want to do the same thing Jesse blurted out if I’d been there and saw that self-serving, smug, pompous a$$ gloating with self-satisfaction and such phoney, staged fake modesty when people exhalt him like he even deserves to carry MLKs or RFKs dirty socks. That’d be a job too good for him.

Joe Biden - my original choice for POTUS - seems to be the logicaL choice of one to be USED to fill the EMPTY SUIT in a (god forbid) BO presidency. The only other one lurking in the background is Judas!

That show is going to be repeated in about 1/2 hour or so I am going to rewatch it to see if I missed something. I just wanted you to know that I too thought he did a good job as far as how he felt about her but still had to talk the DNC talk and that is not right. There are alot of ppl out there that do not follow stuff or get the news or get it second hand. It just creates more confusion and misinformation. Certain ppl I talk to when I pass out flyers believe this stuff and have said to me I thought she quit, or I thought she is out of it, or she can’t be the nominee she concided and on and on. JMO

If that’s true….interesting thought that Joe Biden’s own dreams to be POTUS was sort of dashed by his comment about Obama being articulate, clean, etc….which was jumped on as a “racially-charged” remark. After being effectively neutralized, he’s offered the booby-prize and he takes it? Jeez. I hope not…

Judas I can see doing it…..He certainly looked like a man who’d sold his soul to the devil after he came out and announced for Obama. That whole new hair-do/beard deal made me think “Here’s a man running from himself in shame.” He doesn’t even want to look the same so when he peers in that mirror every morning, he can think he’s really some other guy - one he doesn’t know, so what the heck if THAT guy just sold his soul down the river for a little fame and fortune and maybe a touch of fake “glory.” Heck, he may even find an “Obama Girl” of his very own. All he needs now is the corvette convertible and the big, clunky gold chain around his neck.

(Wonder if Nowanna would be proud of my French)

I’m bout as sick as a person can get of MSM. Today on Fox, some guy (I don’t know who he was) was saying we gotta get it in our heads that it’s between Obama and McCain now, not Clinton and Obama. I really wanted to choke him!
Wonder where Bill is and what he is up to. I gag when I see our Hillary ‘fundraising’ with the boy wonder and when he kisses her……nevermind.
I got my posters today. Funny, I was surprised because I thought they were gonna be something different. Turns out that when that pic was on our site the other day, I printed off a bunch and already put them up in various places. Now I just have more. Here I come, Walmart, and grocery stores, school bulletin boards, senior centers, Library, Post Office, and Sheriff station Wanted Board. LOL

I’d still have no problem NOT voting for him, even if Hillary is on the ticket. It’s going to be a losing ticket. It’s in Hillary’s best interests NOT to take the job if he offers it. It will only hurt her in the long run. She’ll either be associated with a losing Democratic campaign - or should I say ANOTHER losing Democratic campaign and/or she’ll be associated with all the gaffs, flip-flops and disasterous decisions he makes.

I’d much rather she make a fresh start at the top of the ticket in 2012 if he gets the nomination (Ecck-just saying that turns my stomach). Anyone in their right mind, Jim Webb, Strickland, etc. is saying ABSOLUTELY NOT to any hints of wanting the job.

Let Golden Boy stand on his own two feet and take his own “lumps.” Why should Hillary put herself anywhere near him for him to blame her when he fails, as he most certainly will.

Mile High Masturbation …. gotta love it (he’s gonna need a lot help with that folks because Jesse gots one part of his anatomy and don’t think what is left is all that much)..

As far as Hillary as VEEP, the ONLY thing that could kill me know would be that. Honestly, he is a train wreck.

I cannot watch the news–haven’t for many many months. If I see or hear Hillary or Bill talk about Obama in a positive light it makes me cringe. I realize they are playing the game, but the game is getting too close to reality.

Hillary must be on the ticket, or we must ALL vote to insure a DEFEAT for the Democrats if we want to retain this party and its good name. If not, we must form a third party and get ready for 2012 because this country–and perhaps the world–cannot wait another second.

Finally, MLK might actually drop his non-violence pledge and kick Trinity, Pflegger, Wright and the Obama’s butts. JFK, MLK, Hillary and Bill…true American heroes!! #61 is a mean joke.

#454 A-Will on 07.10.08 at 11:40 pm

#439 henry - You are correct. Roe v. Wade was decided on the issue of privacy. I am not an attorney, but I do know that there is no constitutional provision for a right to privacy. That is a judicial precedent, not a constitutional one. Therefore, Roe v. Wade is not a constitutional issue, but a right to privacy issue.

#455 alohapuma on 07.10.08 at 11:41 pm

Brooklyn and Jennifor

Hillary taking the VP spot would be a no win. Many people speculate he offered it to her during their secret meeting and she turned him down.

She’s been knocked around and I’m afraid she is listening to people who have their own agendas and want the easiest solution right now.

She’s taking her political life in her hands if she jumps back into this campaign. She would be a fool to do it without a very strong mandate. My humble opinion.

The strong mandate is our job. :)

#456 KarlaforHillary on 07.10.08 at 11:41 pm

I truly don’t think that he would ever pick her. Even if he does, most of us still will not vote for him. He would never let Hillary play a significant roll in the administration, and we all know that. I think that we shouldn’t waste time worrying about it unless it actually happens–which it won’t.

celebratehillary.com go to blog and then post your special BIRTHDAY MESSAGE!!!

****************************

Hillary’s birthday is in October the 26th.

So, I do not understand who told you her birthday was coming up?

#461 william DenverCO on 07.10.08 at 11:43 pm

DMurphy, got the flyers today. I will be out hanging flyers within the Denver metro area.
Also, sent the emails and made my call to the DNC.

I hope we are getting more and more members.

… yes, but, even if Chairman Dean refuses to accept HRC’s name into nomination, under Section VIII, p.17, delegates may vote for anyone, whether the DNC chair has received that name in nomination or, approved her nomination.

Can you imagine what would happen if Howard Dean decides the only way BO can avoid total humiliation is to keep HRC off the ballot; and then having her delegates vote for her, anyway, in the roll? Their votes would be recorded as “Present,” making an election on the first ballot virtually impossible for BO, anyway. Between a rock and a hard place.

That’s why I recommend issuing a press release confirming the DNC’s statement to PUMA Pac that HRC would be on the ballot.

#463 henry on 07.10.08 at 11:45 pm

A-Will
so if god forbid obama were to win the courts if they were to revisit R v W would have to look at common law and what a president has stood for with regards to privacy would be taken into account. He has thrown privacy under the bus with FISA thus setting a precedent.

#464 greenfun on 07.10.08 at 11:45 pm

So down with the Obama mile high masturbation tickets. You can pay a little more for seats that include rechargeable batteries. You can also request a rain slicker to protect you from all of the bullsh!t that will be flying around.

#450 Your northern neighbor

It would sort of be like when Bush selected Clarence Thomas for a supreme court judge. Created one terrible dilemma for the Black community. Tore them up, pitted them against one another and made many feel like traitors to their race if they were against him and traitors to their race if they were for him.

So, that’s why I say, we’ve got to look at the BIG PICTURE and the long run, not settle for a carrot here and there. I’m sure they’re trying to see what the price is to buy the “women’s vote/disaffected Dems vote.” He seems to have been pretty successful at finding peoples’ prices so far. Stay strong.

#466 A-Will on 07.10.08 at 11:47 pm

#467 snowtiger on 07.10.08 at 11:47 pm

For all newbies.
After reading some posts over the last few days I realize some people are new to the net as well as PUMA.
Iknow it can be embarrassing to ask for help when you don’t understand something so I decided to explain some abbreviations and what they mean.
Lol.:Laughing out loud
Rofl: Rolling on the floor laughing
FYI: For your Information
IMO: In my opinion
IMHO: In my humble opinion
61* : Arrogant empty suit, corrupt
“O” : Narcissistic misogynist jackass
Precious: Pathological liar, delusional
Any of the the previous three are interchangeable.
Good evening all.:)

[[ No I’m dead serious. Let’s all ask for tickets to Invesco. Let’s pass it to all the Just Say No Deal Sites. I want that stadium to be empty. What a fitting tribute to the biggest head in America. ]]

That might be self defeating…. because I am sure they will overbook… just like the airlines do… So all you would be doing is donating to BHO’s campaign.

Even the phrase “pick her” bothers me. Nothing personal to anyone here. It’s like the dance line in grade school.

#282

The conversation between Senator Clinton and Biden appears to be indepth, I come away with a different take. The two had a lengthy conversation,about what we don’t know. However at the end they were laughing. What was interesting if you watch Claire Mcskill (*61 surrogate) she is definitely lurking. The video is 9 hours fast forward to 4hrs 30 mins.

#475 EWard on 07.10.08 at 11:52 pm

#450 Your Northern Neighbor

To get my vote, Senator Clinton has to be at the top of the ticket. Short of that, I will be voting for McCain.

*61’s ego is so fat and his supporters are so mean spirited, the chances of Hillary being the VP are nil. Besides, she is over qualified for the job anyway.

#476 Jeremy on 07.10.08 at 11:52 pm

What is the story regarding Biden? Things change by the second, so I guess he has change his position, too. Didn’t he take his name off any VP list months ago? I have not heard any different until reading some posts upthread. Regarding Hillary as VP. NO, because I would have to vote it down…for now anyways.

#477 hillstheone on 07.10.08 at 11:52 pm

Hillary’s birthday- yeah let’s not make her any older than she really is!

#470 cosmeta

I have a feeling that BO is going to make sure that the stadium is filled with nothing but his supporters. We may all request tickets, but we probably won’t get in. I bet he is having people bused in just to make sure that the seats are filled with his supporters. I believe he has done just that in the past. Why would this be any different?

#479 Goalucard4Hill on 07.10.08 at 11:53 pm

#249 Steve_in_KC - SUBJECT: CLINTON WIN AT CONVENTION

You are absolutely correct Steve in your thinking - the way that Hillary can win will be with the Superdelegates - she is about 127 pledged delegates short of No Name - so if WE by SENDING EMAILS to the 35 Clinton supporters that defected over to No Name - I have posted them a good dozen times in the last two weeks - and got 55 of the still uncomitted 87 or so - we would need 38 more to get her the nomination - yesterday Post #184 by HillaryistheOne - had a breakdown with a website reference of at least that many superdelegates that Clinton won their State or their district by a ton - they also ALL NEED AN EMAIL from us asking them to change their mind - if all the above which is practical and possible - she would be the nominee without having to try and get any of his others to defect - which is almost impossible - unless he continues to flip and flop as always - I have sent this suggestion already to Maryland Puma to come up with a letter for the three groups mentioned above - I think this is more of the action that we need to take to insure her nomination.

#480 sandipuma on 07.10.08 at 11:53 pm

Hi everyone are we a little silly tonight….. good as i need to relax a very busy day so i am behind and i will go stand in the corner

#481 henry on 07.10.08 at 11:54 pm

Just to let everyone know
I once again rather loudly voiced my disgust when being assaulted with an obama ad in a gay bar. Several people were astonished at my utter repulsion and asked how I could not stand behind a democrat regardless. Well thanks to all of you here and on other sites I was prepared to defend my position. Many with whom I spoke knew nothing of the McKlurkin/Mary Mary/ Gavin Newsom contoversies. A few eyes have perhaps been opened.

#482 N. Lee on 07.10.08 at 11:55 pm

#208… listened to Colmes last night on the radio…yes, he is upset, but wants people to think about the appointed judges that McCain presidency would bring.

ahh yes…still holding a woman’s reproductive organs hostage. That was his only suggestion. So we are supposed to vote for nobamba on one little issue? yea right.

#483 tec1965 on 07.10.08 at 11:55 pm

re ; my post #394 i realize my opinion is not very important in certain circles but i sent my polite email and amy everhart’s nasty response to sean hannity

Does everyone understand that some of the things we say here are copied and pasted and spread across the blogosphere to discredit us and our PUMA movement?

We alll know we are not Obama fans or supporters… why keep harping on the same points? I don’t get it.
It’s sort of become a stale bore and as much as I am willing to dedicate my energy to the movement, under the guidance and direction of Murphy, I’m beginning to hate coming here.

Of course they do! But we’re talking about Obamabots here. The rules don’t apply to them. They’re above it all. Can’t you just tell by the way their “leader” keeps his nose up in the air all time, literally. I guess he just can’t even bring himself to “breath” the same air the rest of us mere mortals breath every day.

I am reposting this. It explains a lot!

The DNC as far as I can tell has removed 2008 Call for National Convention from the website. It has all the rules. I think this is how they are holding Hillary hostage right now:

http://s3.amazonaws.com/apache.3cdn.net/c313170ef991f2ce12_iqm6iyofq.pdf

Go to section VI on page 8 of the document (Think it’s p. 17 with the adobe reader). It talks about good faith to be a nominee. If she doesn’t do what they say she can’t even be placed in nomintion!!! This document also contains all the info on roll call voting for those who have a hard time sleeping

#493 deadgirlsrise on 07.10.08 at 11:59 pm

Hi Dances, I sent the 4 letters out, talked to my colleague about our movement, and he checked out our website, also gave him link to NoQuarter. He is a guns and values voter, but I wanted to let him know about my political activities, since he has been there for the past few years, way back when I printed a Hillary flyer and put it up in my office. He asked me at that time “do you really think she has a chance if she runs?” I told him damn straight she has a great chance, she is ahead of McCain in the polling (pollingreport.com) I started watching those polls in ‘04. Last month, I gave him the link to “I won’t miss the misogyny” article, and now he sees what has come out of it. First we despaired, and then we got depressed, and then we got angry, and now we’ve become activists.

I know there are people on our side. They may not share our political bent, but they understand and are for us, and not the other guys. We are sincere, and we have a cause, and we will fight. Together we can accomplish anything we set out to do. I do not think we will make much headway into the entrenched and corrupt Democratic Party leadership. But we certainly must make our voices heard. I feel we should start a new Political Party, the Centrist Party that welcomes the Center, and those just to the left or the right. Balance. Integrity. Principles.

We are here, we hold our values dear, and our voices are not going away.

#494 tec1965 on 07.11.08 at 12:00 am

i think its funny that colmes supported hillary because listening to him speak i think he was for 61 all along even though he claims he voted for hillary
i dont like him hes so smug he makes me ill
i just get angry with him in the way he talks down to people just my opinion
i like hannity
although i never really watched him before the primaries
so i dont really know what he was like before the primaries

#495 hillstheone on 07.11.08 at 12:01 am

COSMETA (#233 yesterday, playing catch-up):

Clarification: You quoted my Pelosi letter (”I’m worried”) correctly but doncha know, I only put things like that in my form letters for the added drama.

I’ve said it before & I’ll say it again: the only thing I’m not worried about is Hillary WILL be the party’s nominee!!

Oh, & I do agree w/ya: quite possible Florida & MI could end up being 100 % counted.

JANUARY:

More clarification, also yesterday someone else replied to me they are taking their teenager w/them to Denver; I actually said “I am taking my 2 daughters to the Inauguration,” and wondered if PUMA can get a section of seats reserved!!

*61 has probably replaced the Iowa Democrat organization with his ACORN campaign staff. It is my belief that ACORN is behind all the allegations of fraud and cheating that took place in the caucuses.

*61 will do anything to win. Remember in LA, dead people and pets were registered to vote.

I understand vents, and I wasn’t targeting anyone specifically, but every now and again Murphy and her creew have tried to set some standards in here, and more oftenn than not, I see those standards being violated.

I’m on the west coast, so that might explain some of it. For many this is their late night unwind, but for me, it’s usually early evening, and sometimes it feels toxic in here.

[[... and now I get more info out of Hannity on BHO than any other media guy, rooting for him against Allen. Have we lost our way? ]]

Hannity and Cholmes play good cop, bad cop. All throughout the Primary season, every show Hannity did was about BHO, Wright, Ayers etc…. but as soon as he got the nod, Hannity has quieted down on those BHO issues. So I have concluded that Hannity was doing a Rush Limbaugh thingie, but in his own way. He did not want BHO to be nominated; because *he felt Hillary would be the easier to beat in the fall.

Since some others have brought up the VP thing for Hillary, I have to admit that the vibe I am getting is that the push to get her debt paid off is so that she won’t be vulnerable to right wing attacks about being in debt and so not a good VP choice for Mr. Magic.

For some reason, that doesn’t make sense to me, there are so many hillraisers that want her to get the VP position if not top position they could afford to pay off her debt in a second by not purchasing a few pair of shoes that month. I have a feeling that it is politics behind the scenes between the two camps with the sinister DNC in the background.

#557 Taffy on 07.11.08 at 12:26 am

I read this somewhere back during the primaries..may explain a few things. Hillary was putting money in her GE fund and running up debts in primary because of using smaller contributers for primary. Meanwhile bo was spending most of money on primary to win so his GE is smaller. kind of like ant and grasshopper. So now his donors are maxed out and he doesn’t have the money in his GE fund he should have. So where does he expect it to come from….????

#558 N. Lee on 07.11.08 at 12:27 am

I have to respectfully disagree with you on Hannity. I don’t think his motives were quite that calculating. I think he had genuine concerns that BO wasn’t being properly vetted and if a candidate ever deserved serious vetting, it was/is BO.

#560 Cat in NJ on 07.11.08 at 12:27 am

Was anyone here able to get to NYC today? How did it go?

#561 matt2008A on 07.11.08 at 12:27 am

Although Ann Coulter said she would vote for Hillary over McCain, so I think thats pretty good. She also wrote that article saying that Hillary should be the nominee, b/c she won the most votes.

#562 N. Lee on 07.11.08 at 12:28 am

A few months ago Ann Coulter said she would support Hillary before McCain. She has thus changed her mind. She can be funny at times.

In terms of nasty letters back from superd’s today, or any other nasty mail from DNC, etc. I suggest we save them up and/or forward copies to Bill O’Reilly with comments such as “this is an example of the party “unity” dems are talking about. This is how “together” and unified the party is. One side is protesting and the other side is resorting to lovely personal attacks and taunts in return. This is an example of the Democratic Party of Obama, Dean et al. Can’t even behave with any kind of civility towards members of its own party, how in heaven’s name will it EVER reach across the isle and get anything done after a general election?!!!

alohapuma…

OH HECK YES….let me clarify. It would KILL me if she were to accept the VP position. LITERALLY. I would die from sorrrow and shock.

And yes, we need to send her a strong mandate. I send letters, emails everday and have for one year. Ask my parents…I WILL NEVER GIVE UP.

And I sent a strong message to Hillary before the speech. I told her that the right thing to do was go Independent. I still cry and cannot really talk about that day…

I am on the edge, and I know it. As a woman I am at FILL and can take no more. I always knew they hated us, I just didn’t know how much.

When the roll call vote occurs, my heart will beat with each vote for her and stop with each vote not for her. I can only pray she receives enough votes for my heart to go on….

#544 SANDIPUMA

REMEMBER WHEN HILLARY WAS ON O’REILLY AND HE WAS BRAGGING ON HER ABOUT HOW GREAT SHE DID IN THE INTERVIEW. I believe he does like Hillary, but just not saying it. He told Greta when he was on her show, a few days after he interviewed Hillary, that there was a group that was telling lies about Hillary and trying to smear her name and also threatening her, her family and even her daughter. I do not see how anyone can get away with threating anyone, especially someone running for President.

#579 BrooklynNY on 07.11.08 at 12:41 am

I also cannot wait to hear how Keith Obermann is going to rationalize BO’s vote FOR the FISA bill! LOL. That is going to be interesting, especially since good ol’ Keith prides himself on being the new and improved Edward R. Murrough (did I spell that right?). His rants and raves about McCarthyism, etc. How in heaven’s name is he going to justify Saint Obama’s sharp veer off to the right? LOL. Come to think of it, I haven’t seen him in a while on his show. Maybe he blew a fuse in his brain and he had to go into the shop to get a new one installed?

billie jo,

Why do Hillraisers want her to be VP? I hate that idea! Why should she put him over the top in Nov and then spend 8 years ironing his shirt instead of running herself against McCain in 2012? Or at least going back to her own career in the Senate.

#582 notfollowingthepiedpiper on 07.11.08 at 12:42 am

This may be old news here. (My internet was down on the 8th so it’s new to me) but I just read this transcript from two days ago and can’t believe how they use sexist remarks to try to say sexism in campaign coverage was only “perceived “.
Isn’t this whole dialogue making an innuendo about the necessary foreplay to score the Clinton supporter’s vote?? Or am I just perceiving that?

(on camera): So, what’s the problem? Some say Obama is shifting positions. Some say Hillary Clinton should get a large role in both the convention and the fall campaign. And some of those die-hard Clinton supporters say they are angry because of the perceived sexism in the coverage of their candidate.

REP. DEBBIE WASSERMAN SCHULTZ (D), FLORIDA: So we need to address that issue, but we need to not take it out on Barack Obama, because it was not his fault.

JOHNS (voice-over): Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida spent the last two days in New York, talking to disaffected Clinton supporters. She says the answer is simple.

SCHULTZ: It’s not unexpected that they count just automatically shift over to Obama, because they’re not the typical Democratic supporters that just automatically shift over. They need to be wooed. They need to be, you know — they need to be, um, won over.

JOHNS (on camera): Barack Obama needs to show them some love?

SCHULTZ: He does.

#583 jenniforhillary on 07.11.08 at 12:43 am

Brooklyn…he’ll either blame Hillary or say it was a brillant move to dimish the claim he is weak on terrorism.

At this point it appears that we have two camps: sane and for Hillary and insane and for Obama. And NO matter what that man does his camp is going to drink that darn kool aid until they choke. And I am ready for that day at this point…more than ready!

[[Also, if you were a Jesse Jackson, or a John Lewis, or any other political activist from the 50’s, 60’s and beyond and you ACTUALLY knew Martin Luther King, marched alongside him, like Jesse and John Lewis did and maybe even got your head bashed in more times than not, wouldn’t you go flippin’ wild to hear Golden Boy compared to MLK, Robert Kennedy or any of those other greats from that era? I think I might want to do the same thing Jesse blurted out if I’d been there and saw that self-serving, smug, pompous a$$ gloating with self-satisfaction and such phoney, staged fake modesty when people exhalt him like he even deserves to carry MLKs or RFKs dirty socks. That’d be a job too good for him. ]]

I hear ya! With the exception of the fact that it was Jesse Jackson that started BHO’s career when he started as state senator. JJ has been backing BHO all along and that’s what’s so puzzling. Something must have happened.

I just think that when BHO does speeches on social issues…. well to me, that is *NOT* something a president or a potential president should do… BECAUSE, he is setting himself up as priestly-king. IOW, I see BHO as giving religious speeches, when he ought to be running as a political leader.

I think the idealogical tensions might be stemming from that kind of difference. Sill…. it’s just a guess.

I agree with everything you said.

Good post
Thank you.

There are some things I really want to know.

1. How much money did the Obama, McCain, and Hillary campaigns raise in June. It is July 11th! Where is the info?

2. How much debt does that leave Hillary with now?

3. What on earth did the Obama camp think they could accomplish by leaking the story that BOs worshipers had only given Hillary $100,000? I guess that knowing that information Hillary’s supporters and everyone else will realize that Hillary does not owe Bo or the DNC much if anything?

So If you see any articles with current fund raising statistics please post them. I know this is the place to come for current news. Thanks everyone!

#600 jbjd on 07.11.08 at 1:10 am

Just a thought on the identity of new posters on this blog… On other blogs, the posters hired by Senator Obama’s campaign to infiltrate pro-Hillary sites tracked their posts for the purpose of getting paid, by using names that were followed by payroll identifying numbers, usually four.

posted this:

You know I think Fox isn’t going after Obama yet because they also don’t want Hillary to get the nomination. This is so unlike Fox to not really go after Obama….

Q - Can we brainstorm a list of all of the indicators (facts, not theories) we’ve all seen that are all saying the same thing, i.e., there has been wrongdoing, collusion, and behind-the-scenes dealmaking by leaders on BOTH sides of the aisle (Democrat & Republican), trying to make sure Hillary wouldn’t get the nomination?!?!!!

I know she’s gonna win.

However, I just would like to hear other PUMA’s weigh in on this because I believe it’s the FIRST election I’ve ever witnessed in my life where both parties were trying to work against the same (incredibly talented, smart, competent and qualified) nominee!!

And after she gets the nomination we’re gonna need to go after the GOP just like we’ve been on the backs of the DNC.

I don’t know of anything that would indicate a collusion between the GOP and the DNC.
The GOP acted in their best political interest. They , quite rightly, did not want to go against Hillary in the general.
It may look like collusion since the GOP and the DNC had the same goal, an “O” nomination but, to say there was collusion would need some pretty powerful proof.

#624 hillstheone on 07.11.08 at 1:32 am

snowtiger: yes I do walk a path. I do REIKI and my path is very inclusive, i.e. I was raised on christianity but now, while not Buddhist, that’s probably the path I’m closest to…thanks for asking & I’m definitely not into talking religion or spirituality (though both are important) on this site. I’m the type of voter always wants a dividing line between church and state…

I also agree w/Joseph Campbell & I think the next new “myth” will involve Mother Earth and people are going to stop thinking “them against us” in religion.

And getting back to your comment, yes, definitely people should pay attention to their dreams.

#625 firechief on 07.11.08 at 1:33 am

OK, did it again…got yet another snail mail contribution letter today, from the DNC (that makes 5 so far) and I absolutely, totally, completely, resoundingly, fondly, lovingly and resolutely LOVE sending the reply form back to them with the following, written in large letters:
“YOU WILL NEVER GET A DIME FROM ME.
ALL MY CASH GOES TO HILLARY.

I love doing that. Just love it.

#626 hillstheone on 07.11.08 at 1:34 am

Maybe we can put floor to ceiling bunkbeds in that one room and put a few people on the roof.

Seriously, I noticed that lodging is really hard to come by. I think a good bet might be to get some of these houses on craigslist, and bring our sleeping bags and pile in these places. I emailed a 3 bdrm place for 300.00 a night. You could squeeze 18 people in there-4nts would be 1200.00. That would be about 75.oo each for the 4nts-sweet.
They have the following posted at 18million:

#616 hillstheone

I agree the Democrats have carried on an all-out campaign to eliminate Hillary in the most vile and UN-democratic way, but I can’t see that the Republicans are part of this plot. Sorry, the Dems have to take credit for this one all on their own, in my mind. If anything, I think Repubs been quite sympathetic to her. If you remember John McCan basically praised her and expressed his admiration and respect for her throughout the campaign, particularly once it was clear what a rotten deal she was getting. So, this one can’t be pinned on Republicans. If anything they’ve quite shocked me with their fairness and decency in representing Hillary over all. The Dems deserve credit for this all on their own.

However, I do think the Repubs certainly have been responsible for some pretty dirty deeds in the past and recent past that no one should have let stand. Even though it’s not “our” deal if we are Dems, I still think it hurts everyone when one party or the other corrupts the system. We all suffer and end up with really poor choices, so to me, it would be wonderful if people kept a careful eye on what’s going on and objected to dirty dealings regardless of which side was responsible….

In the end, then, we’d have the best of the best on either side battling it out as fairly and squarely as is possible, and, as in any true democracy the victor would be most representative of the whole country’s views. Seems whenever this has been the case, good things have happened. Whenever the system has been “played,” manipulated, etc., bad things have happened….

Just my humble opinion…

#634 snowtiger on 07.11.08 at 1:41 am

#624 hillstheone
Not going to get into religion either but, I have noticed a few of us up here.;)
Kind of makes me wonder.
Personally, I think the main reason Hillary was so opposed by the DNC was because she was willing to work across the aisle. Less into “them against us” than the DNC likes. Same with McCain. The evangalicals dislike his reaching across the aisle.

maybe it’s mean of me, but i get a chuckle out of it. can’t help it!! those silly dopes, they blew it on may 31 and many times before that….

snowtiger: oh i just saw your last post, I agree totally! Isn’t that interesting, though?
Hillary is the smart choice for so many reasons, just ONE of them being her ability to work across the aisle.

Obama can’t do it, all he knows how to do is flipflop.

BTW, National Public Radio did a show about his flip flopping today but they tried to make light of it.
I need to look it up tomorrow & post a link so we can all hammer them to Get Real already.

A whole section on “political flip-flopping,” and they barely touched on the wiretapping thing. geesh.

OK, nitey-night now!! I have been purrfectly happy dialoging w/you snowtiger tonight!

HAD THIS FEAR…
If we continue to be successful in pressuring the DNC and scaring them BEFORE BO picks a VP, are we in effect, forcing BO to pick Hillary as his VP? And if he does, is that what we really want? I not sure what will kill me more, voting for him (which I would never) or not voting for Hillary on the ticket. It would really stink if he picks her. What are your thoughts…

I agree. we need to do something to prevent him jumping at picking her for VP. I’ve got a petition but I don’t think many people have signed it. Maybe filling out a petiton is too much trouble. Maybe someone should do a poll instead.

I agree with you. Sadly, one of the thing that excited me so much about this election was that Clinton and McCain were clearly both a different kind of politician because of just that fact. I wanted so badly to see that “new kind of politics” we could have had between two very competent, dedicated, experienced and committed Americans. It cudda been great. Hmmm… who knows? It still may be. :)

Would be nice but, I dont see it happening. Hopefully we can get Hillary the nomination she deserves but, do you think the “O” team will get on board if we do?
I agree thatwe had the chance for a diffrent kind of election, I so wanted to see a Hillary Mccain run off in the general. Would have truly changed the landscape.
That more than anything else is the sin of Dean and company.
We might have seen the extremists in both parties relegated to the fringe.

#616 Hillstheone

Fox News is owned by Rupert Murdoch. He has endorsed #61. Murdoch has a history of supporting politicians from both political parties in America, Britain, and Australia.

I notice individual reporters and anchors will report negatively about *61 but not with the same intensity as in past campaigns. The key to defeating him is to follow his money which was the Watergate mantra that resulted in President Nixon’s resignation.

#651 TajM on 07.11.08 at 1:53 am

#642 turndownobama

I know voting against Hillary would be unthinkably and unbearably agonizing. But in November you vote for the President, not the Vice President. If Obama picks Hillary as his running mate, you would still be voting to make that piece of Chicago filth our Commander in Chief. THAT we cannot do.

Nevertheless, I severely doubt Hillary would accept the VP offer, if given. She does not want to be Obama’s No. 2. I think Hillary fully intends to run again in 2012, because Obama will loose the general election and Hillary will able to count on her loyal army of 18 million Americans.

#652 snowtiger on 07.11.08 at 1:53 am

I am very happy to see ALL THE PUMAS donating so strongly.

RISE HILLARY RISE… GO PUMAS!!!

CNN pisses me off so much I want to scream. I thought I’d switch over to see what kind of things they are reporting and if they are showing any signs of changing their ways.

Nope… it was too much to expect of CNN.

They just did a report on people across America and who they are voting for. They showed this woman and man who the interviewer (in the voice over) states: “These people are long term Democrats but what is scary is this year they will be voting Republican.” I think to myself — “Oh good — maybe CNN is going to have someone who will express some intelligent reasons why they aren’t picking Obama. This is too good to be true.”

Well — I was quickly led down a road of disappointment — because CNN picked two people to state the most racist of reasons why they don’t like Obama. The woman says, “I just can’t vote for a Muslim.” The announcer’s voice over states, “Just for the record, he’s not a muslim — he’s a christian.” Then the microphone is held towards the man and he says, “I can’t vote for a black man. The only black man I’ve ever seen with change was holding a cup.”

Damn. I hate CNN. I am sooooo mad. This is who CNN picked to represent the crowd of Dems voting Republican. How many people did they have to edit out of the report before they found those two? I switched back to FOX. It seems more like home to me.

RE: petitions. There are probably other people like me who don’t sign because we don’t want to give out personal information (including email). I do not want to open free email accounts at AOL, Google, Yahoo, etc. since I don’t trust any of these organizations anymore. Besides which it is hard for me to keep track of multiple accounts. And giving false information is concerning to me also - there are ways to identify where the false information came from. I just don’t feel comfortable doing things like that.

On 07/04/2008 I received a death threat via email. I think that it is hoax and I reported it via cyber crimes, but it was still rather disconcerting to receive such a thing. I didn’t have a very good holiday weekend. :(

Clintonites at Arm’s Length

–cut for length—
Only one member of the Mayflower group whom I contacted (the one least critical of Obama) was willing to let his name be used. Gus is a multimillionaire trial lawyer whose name would be widely recognized as a Democratic money man. He is no “Friend of Bill” who automatically signed on with the former president’s wife. With his support sought by several of the presidential candidates, Gus at one point considered backing Obama but ended up with Clinton because she seemed the best qualified, most electable Democrat. Contrary to the media consensus, Gus found the Clinton campaign to be one of the best-managed in his wide experience.

Just what Gus and his friends were seeking in the encounter with Obama is unclear, but they left dissatisfied. As has been reported, Obama said that he and his wife, Michelle, each were writing the maximum $2,300 check to help erase Clinton’s massive campaign debt. Obama added that he would ask his supporters to contribute as well.

But, in the opinion of the Clintonites, he did not open the door to his campaign, because he asked nothing of them. Big-money Democrats who could have expected to be named U.S. ambassadors by a President Hillary Clinton realized that they would get nothing from a President Obama. The train had left the station, and they were not aboard.

Terry McAuliffe, long the Clintons’ faithful political servitor and Hillary’s presidential campaign chairman, played the cheerleader after the meeting. “This is unity!” he declared to reporters assembled in the Mayflower’s long lobby. Vernon Jordan, another longtime Clintonite, was similarly upbeat.

But the tone of what really happened inside the locked ballroom was quite different once Obama and Hillary Clinton had their cordial say and the floor was opened for questions. The first “questioner,” an angry woman from New York, demanded a roll call of presidential preference at the Denver convention. Next came another distraught woman who declared that Clinton’s candidacy was the victim of “misogyny.” One participant told me, “This is as tough a crowd as Obama is going to face the whole campaign.”

It was so tough that Lanny Davis, the participant who let me use his name, tried to change the mood. Davis, who was a Clinton White House aide and remains a fervent supporter of both Clintons, rose to say that the presidential contest had been painful in dividing Democratic families — alienating him from his Obama-supporting son, Seth Davis, the prominent college basketball reporter. Now, he said, they are together again.

But Davis admitted to me that there is “a lot that needs to be done” for all wounds to be healed. “It’s going to take a long time,” Gus said of achieving unity. The minds of the Clintonites are with Obama, but not their hearts. That helps explain why the presidential race appears close in what otherwise shapes up to be a horrible year for Republicans, and that is why the nominee’s “underwhelming” performance at the Mayflower is important.

No idea, but it is quite a coincidence in my book. I had a friend google and at least one other person claimed to have received the same thing word for word except for the name. So I am talking myself into thinking that it is a hoax and that the perpetrators are trying to extort $$.

pumaindy: you might want to let Murphy know too. It would be a good idea for us PUMAs to keep track of all the threats. Also, someone may be able to trace the IP address of the threat. For example, the birth certificate petition was closed due to threats.

#679 pumaindy on 07.11.08 at 2:33 am

#678 pa dem

I thought about that but the email claimed that they would “know” if I told anyone. So now I’m really in deep yogurt if it is anything other than a hoax :)

But it made me scared to send email and scared to use my cell phones. It’s pretty creepy.

In the end, I just thought ‘well what the heck’ and reported it to cyber crimes. If they come for me then they come for me.

I think it is a hoax. I’m hoping anyway…

#680 mzebest on 07.11.08 at 2:35 am

Thanks for posting that article. It was great reading. I have a question on the birth certificate petition. Since it was closed due to threats on his family… isn’t this terrorism? If so — can this type of thing be reported to the FBI? I would love the FBI to take over the investigation into the birth certificate as well as the threat on this man running the petition website.

mzebest: I would say yes, it is the FBI’s jurisdiction, however, it’s a question of what priority level they would consider our cases.

pumaindy: I’m glad you chose to report it. I would still send it to one of our cyber geeks who could easily find out it was a 10 year old and have the threat reported to the kid’s parents.

Obama is all about marketing. So I always take those kind of articles as a desperate attempt to paint a happy face on a problem that is anything but happy. He’s going to fail big come November. Cause you know the Republicans won’t be able to vote for him after the GOP chews him up. The GOP is just waiting until after the convention. They don’t want to risk knocking him out before the convention cause they don’t want to go up against Hillary. So if Obama is still the nominee… they will paint him so badly that no one will want him by the time November rolls around.

#685 pumaindy on 07.11.08 at 2:43 am

#681 pa dem

Exactly - and good point. I watched the primaries with incredulity, jaw on the floor every day.

The propaganda is so blatant now that it is quite obvious to me that there is something very sinister going on and whatever it is, it is supported by organization(s) and at levels that none of us “mortals” can possibly comprehend. IMO, there is a powerful consortium pulling strings and my concern is that it extends far beyond just the DNC. Of course, this is just a theory on my part, but I cannot think of any other explanation.

Why else would BO be getting so much support when he steps in his own excrement daily? Something smells really foul.

# 228 Andy85719, I have asked about sleeping on the buses but have yet to receive a response. I got lucky and one of our Puma Family offered me a place to stay at her daughters, if things don’t work out tho, I do love to camp and the cherry creek campground is just lovely, a lake, walking trails etc. It is 8 dollars a night I believe. If we camp we should all stay together, We need to watch out for one another, we are a family like that.

Thanks for all you do Murphy, Mama and the rest of you, thank you for providing buses for me and the rest of the gang. This will be the most important political event in my life, and for that I am eternally grateful.

I reported it to cyber crimes. A “hoax” is someone who spreads a rumor that isn’t really true or says something that they really don’t mean. In this case, I think that whomever is doing this is trying to extort money by making threats that they don’t really mean to carry out (hoax). That is what I am counting on anyway (that it is just all talk/threat with no real intention of following up on the threat). So I reported it. Still, it was unnerving to get such a hateful piece of email.

#691 eveadamson on 07.11.08 at 2:51 am

OK, Pumas, I did all the action posts today, but I do have an issue.

I get on late since I am on the West Coast and I feel like that is when those that wear the tin-foil hats crawl from the woodwork.

That IS the deal with BO being not having a valid BC?? I DO not want to be associated with a group that believes BO is a muslim or is not a real citizen.

I joined this site to have INTELLIGENT dialogue and to support Hillary and to work to get her her DESERVED nomination. I do not think the smears, lies and conspiracy theories get us many supporters.

Just my 2cents.

i also usually can only get on at night and while i understand the point of most of the “work” getting done during the day,to me the point might not be if he is a muslim but the fact that he would lie about it if he was. I think that is what someone would be getting at if they brought that up. i don’t know , i’m just using that as an example. anyway, i’m always up for intelligent dialogue but keep in mind that as it gets late people are tired and sometimes just want to chat.

#693 sheila7 on 07.11.08 at 2:58 am

also, the person who had the birth certificate petition site up did receive threats and i think that is a valid thing to discuss. why threats if there’s nothing to it? i can see why some are very concerned about this.

#694 mzebest on 07.11.08 at 3:02 am

#693 sheila7

I agree with the points you make. I would also like to add that I am a Photoshop expert and can see all the areas of the birthcertificate that were Photoshopped. If he has a valid birth certificate — why does he need to doctor up the one he puts on his Fight the Smears website?

#695 pumaindy on 07.11.08 at 3:02 am

#691 eveadamson

I understand your concern about keeping our dialog smear-free. And I agree that we should do exactly that.

That said, I personally have some concerns over BOs belief system and that includes questions about his religious ties, both with Wright and with the Muslim community. I do not say these things to smear him - I really do have legitimate concerns over these issues.

I remember many months ago news reports about how there were passport breaches against all 3 of the candidates (McCain, Clinton, and BO). Now there is some concern over BO’s birth certificate. This raises questions in my mind that I would simply like to see some answers to. I think others who are pushing on the birth certificate issue feel the same way. This is in no way meant to smear anyone.

I have a suggestion, may be way off, but I know the Dixie Chick’s song “Not ready to Make Nice” has been used for some Hillary videos on YouTube, after the big fuss over their ‘not so free freedom of speech…they might be willing to do a fund raiser for Hillary. Couldn’t hurt to check. Just a thought, but I know they don’t like the current pres any more than I do. And I’m also sure they wouldn’t be happy with FISA.

#700 pa dem on 07.11.08 at 3:16 am

eveadamson: I was honestly of the opinion that of course he was a citizen; he couldn’t be a Senator otherwise, right? However, a clearly photoshopped copy of a fake birth certificate put up more questions than answers. The snopes article was written prior to the proof that the image at the Daily Kos was a fake.

#701 pa dem on 07.11.08 at 3:25 am

evadamson: I’m not sure how we got on this topic, but I would like to get back on the topic of the fact that *61 can flip flop and the media claims that Democrats are ok with this.

Senator Clinton clearly voted against the FISA bill and against wiretapping and for that and many other reasons, I am helping with the push to retire her debt.

#702 sheila7 on 07.11.08 at 3:29 am

i am also helping to retire her debt. it is so frustrating to hear the media say we are a fringe and that most democrats support him. I don’t know any. i know a few who have said to me they can’t vote for john mccain (which is fine) but they will be staying home if Hillary is not the nominee.

#703 pa dem on 07.11.08 at 3:40 am

you’re right and i am determined to get the word out. i personally know several people who didn’t know all the facts and they are appalled and now want something done about this fiasco. it’s funny, my mom calls me whenever someone like will bowers or murphy is on tv and says one of your pumas is on. now her and my dad are both getting involved, they are elderly so they can’t physically do much but they watch tv and keep me informed and make sure i know of any breaking news.

#706 pumaindy on 07.11.08 at 3:50 am

Regarding the flip flopping and the FISA bill…

These things are troublesome and would damage any ‘typical’ politician. I remain concerned that BO continues to get free passes on EVERYTHING he does. Through his actions, he has shown us that his idea of ‘change’ is that he can do anything he wants and get away with it.

That his supporters cannot see this is beyond me. That he can continue to get endorsements from political colleagues is the very thing that leads me to wonder just how far-reaching this propaganda machine stretches. What leverage can he possibly have over everyone who has endorsed him? Promises of money and power? Blackmail material? Threats against their lives? What????

And that Hollywood has gone all goo-goo over him - I just remain astounded. Do they really think that if he comes to power that one of his first acts won’t be to censor their business? Let anyone try making a film about the 2008 election similar to the one just released about the 2000 election. Won’t happen. He has already voted to suppress our freedom of speech by allowing big brother to wire tap at will and with impunity. Extreme censorship and a government that wields its iron fist against its constituency is on its way as his coup progresses.

When does everyone wake up from the Kool-Aid stupor? Why don’t his supporters see what is clear to so many of the rest of us? Why do they insist on supporting someone who will turn around and betray them? That they cannot see these things astounds me daily.

#707 sheila7 on 07.11.08 at 3:54 am

pumaindy,
i know it astounds me too and i just don’t get it. i was telling someone the other day that i have never been so strongly against a candidate (including George Bush) and they said they agreed, they had never seen me this worked up but I JUST CAN’T STAND IT!

#708 sheila7 on 07.11.08 at 4:02 am

ok, i must get to bed. have a good night all.

I am wondering about the same thing. Why are these people so blind, and won’t stop to see the big picture? I usually refer to HBOs supporters as: “insane people”. They are so blind by the beautiful words from him and his charm, that they are ignoring everything else.

My oldest nephew lives in NY, and just before the primaries he talked his dad into voting for HBO. I was really pissed o**. So, now I’m thrilled because it looks like he will move to CA to live with us, and then will not be able to vote in November. I hope that I am right. ;)

#710 anonymous on 07.11.08 at 4:11 am

PUMAs, I want to share this with you, so please don’t laugh at me. I feel very embarrassed.

I went to a 4th of July fair to help with get people to register to vote for McCain in November. After the first about 30 minutes, I got up on my feet, and started approaching people randomly and telling them about our upcoming events. I was so excited about it that I didn’t recognize other volunteers until they came really close to the tent (including my uncle who was there to protect me–I’m 27, but we protect everybody including my oldest cousin and my sister). So, I approached one man, gave him a little information card, and told him about our upcoming events and gave him our little information card. He talked to one of the other girls for a few minutes, then walked back to me, and she told me that he was one of the candidates. I feel so stupid about it. :( :( It’s NOT funny. :( Tomorrow we have another major event and I am very excited, but I am also afraid that I’ll run into him because I treated him like another potential voter. :(

#711 pumaindy on 07.11.08 at 4:21 am

sheila7 - yep.

I keep wondering about the media - I know that they have been the propaganda machinery for the government for many years now. But IMO, this has now officially gone to far - they have officially stepped over the line so to speak.

Now we find ourselves in the middle of an all-out war between the different political factions and their supporters. And of course every group is convinced that they are right. Every group’s position appears to be immovable.

I watch people still arguing two-party politics. And in the light of today’s reality, this seems almost ludicrous to me. With the advent of BO, it appears to me that a coup is in progress and that this coup will eliminate all but one party and that would be the party of BO and his supporters. If this is really what is going on, then Rep vs Dem vs Green vs Indep becomes irrelevant. If this is really what is going on, then there are really only two sides and these sides have nothing to do with party affiliation. The two sides are BO and NOBO.

I could be all wrong. So I stay tuned, watching the events as they continue to unfold. Because I really think that the play has only just begun.

July 14-Cincinnati, Ohio–5th meeting
July 15-Los Angeles, CA–2nd meeting
July 19-Texas-2nd meeting
-West Palm Beach, Florida
-Ocoee (near Orlando), Florida

Let’s plan more meetings.

I hope you’re right. I also want to use this opportunity to meet as many candidates to try to get a job on their campaign or maybe in their office working with press, communications, etc. (these are people running for: City Council, Assembly members, CA State Senate, and U.S. Congress). I hope that this gentlemen (he’s runing for City Council) won’t remember me and won’t tell any one else, because he’ll think that I am stupid. :(

Thank you for your support.
I’m sorry, but I am loosing my memory ( I’m not kidding). My uncle laughed at me a couple of days ago. We came home from grocery store, and I asked my aunt where’s my son? My uncle looked at me as if I am insane and said: “What’s wrong with your memory”? I asked her the same question a couple of minutes ago. It’s very painful. I remember some stuff, but a lot of information is gone.

It’s really weird because I can be dialing my phone number of my uncle’s cell phone, and I called him like 5 minutes ago, and all of a sudden I don’t remember the number. It’s gone, and I have to look in the phone book to find it. Sometimes, I am getting ready to call somebody who I talked to yesterday or something, and I don’t remember the number either. I am only 27 and I have no idea why it’s happening.

Any doctors here? Please help. I need an advice.

If Obama picks Hillary as his running mate, you would still be voting to make that piece of Chicago filth our Commander in Chief. THAT we cannot do.

I agree! My post must have been unclear. I’ll work harder AGAINST a Obama/Clinton ticket that would make Hillary iron Obama’s shirt for 4 or 8 years.

My petition is to ask HIllary NOT to accept VP.

718 anonymous … Sometimes an infection (such as ears/sinuses) may make you forget things.. sometimes lack of sleep/rest makes you forget things..sometimes different medications make you forget things (like ambein,the sleep medicine, just screwed me all up !), sometimes pure old depression makes you forget things, and sometimes you just have something on your mind that you have to figure out..If youare seriously worried though, your best course of action is to see a doctor as soon as possible. Good LUck.

#721 TajM on 07.11.08 at 5:01 am

Everyone, I have a request. Remember that elderly South Dakotan woman who died before she could vote for HRC in the primary, and how thousands of people voted for HRC in the late woman’s place?

Well, I’m only 17 and I don’t have a credit card. Plus, my mom (single and working) can’t spare money for donations to Hillary. So…could someone donate at least $5 for me? I know that sounds like I want someone to donate to Hillary without having to spend my money, but I just want to see my hero debt-free.

Thanks!

#722 Sunshinelvr on 07.11.08 at 5:03 am

681 pa dem …I am loving your post ! Just what are these people on anyway? I agree with it totally. Sometimes I think that the media and half the US is in a conspiracy to over power those of us who don’t want obama and shove him down our throats anyway! The USA is a powerful nation and we must keep it that way, elecfting obama will just weaken US in the eyes of the world!

Everyone forgets things. It’s called [I]being spacey[/I] when you’re young. It usually happens more when you have a lot of things in your head and in a situation with a lot of stimuli or things to deal with. In my case, I was actually more “spacey” or forgetful when I was younger and got better as I got older. Maybe it also comes with being an artist-type. You’re probably a very creative person. I wouldn’t worry about it!

#724 Sunshinelvr on 07.11.08 at 5:09 am

Actually, my B.S. degree is in Public Relations, and I tried to design some ads during Hillary’s campaign to put in the news papers, but I don’t think of myself as very creative because I can’t draw. I can only tell somebody how I imagine things and draw stick people. I really LIKE to design flyers, brochures, ads, write letters, but it’s really not that great.

#726 storytellers on 07.11.08 at 5:27 am

I am in europe, not in germany, but from I know, the information that is recieved about the chosen is incomplete, on one hand we have the idealist, that out of good will think that the boy would be a good choice
but on the other hand there is an underlying feeling “of antiamericanism obsession” that would love to see the USA world power and institution fall apart, they also see the boy as a good choice
I think that americans must have clear in ther minds, that the institution of the goverment could be vulnerable too, with enough sofistication could be hurt

Ever since I was little I had hard time falling asleep, but I tend to sleep very late ( I don’t work, so I can sleep until 10:00a.m.) At night I fall asleep for a couple of hours, and then can’t sleep for a long time. ;)

Good morning everyone. I have just been doing some back peddling and came across sereral responses to me on yesterday’s thread. Please know that I have at least read through them and would like to thank those of you who responded. THANX

Right now I am on a site called, “The Hill” and doing a search for: DNC Rules committee and coming across some interesting stuff.

http://demconvention.thehill.com/index.php?option=com_search&Itemid=99999999&searchword=DNC+Rules+and+Bylaws&submit=Search&searchphrase=exact&ordering=newest

This one takes the cake:

“The committee did not break for lunch, opting instead to deal with Michigan immediately.”

That is NOT how I remembered it from watching C-Span. They were suppose to take a 1 hour lunch and were gone about 2 1/2 to 3 hour lunch.

So guess this site is biased and not to be trusted. Ah well…. Way too funny.

That’s where it says at the bottom they did not break for lunch. Amazing. What they call spin I call downright being lied to.

…And actually (chuckle), I’m a man. I know there are not too many of my gender on here, but I am honored to be one of those proud and few.

#755 Lorelai on 07.11.08 at 10:37 pm

Got home late tonight from work and there was a message from a neighbor of mine who invited me to an Obama meeting at her home next week- a national community organizer will be in town and even though she knew I had been (and still am for Hillary) as evidenced by my multitude of bumper stickers and yard signs, she still thought to reach out and invite me - she was quite respectful but wondered if I may be open to listen to another point of view.
I find I am increasingly being criticized for not jumping on the the BO bandwagon and accused of treason for the Democratic party etc. etc. I “should” be voting for Obama unless I want a third George Bush term, yadda yadda yaddda - I should not stay home, I should not vote for McCain.
Well, I have news for all my colleagues, friends and others - the 11th Commandmant is “Thou Shall Not Should on Thyself”….I will not do something because someone says I should - everytime I have gone against my gut in my life, the choice has been wrong. And my gut tells me Obama is really bad news, and we have a litany of evidence to prove it….but teflon man still keeps dusting himself off and moving forward.
Anyway, I will respond politely to my neighbor that I appreciate her invitation, but cannot possibly vote for Obama and it would be a waste of my time and hers.
More from my friend (an die hard Hill supporter in N.Y.) below:
ELECTABILITY WATCH (EW)
All,
We are nearing the 4th week of the ELECTABILITY WATCH. Join us!

We are beginning to reach SDs thousand of times a week, reminding them that their only job in Denver is to select the electable Democrat who can get us back to the White House, and she is HRC.

1. ANOTHER VERSION OF THE SEAL: If you want to register your dismay at Obama’s grandiose, inappropriate hope to speak at the Brandenburg Gate in Germany, please write or call to the: German Embassy 4645 Reservoir Road NW Washington, DC, 20007 (202) 298-4000

2. MORTGAGE MISCHIEF: Judicial Watch today filed ethics complaints alleging that Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, broke the rules when he accepted a discounted deal on a 2005 mortgage loan, as first reported last week by The Post.

Americans ought to be suspicious when a United States Senator such as Barack Obama, obtains a sweetheart mortgage deal,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement. “We have serious concerns that Senator Obama’s mortgage may have violated the law and Senate ethics rules.” The group filed separate complaints with the Federal Election Commission and the U.S. Senate Ethics Committee.

“It appears that due to his position as a United States Senator, Barack Obama received improper special treatment from Northern Trust resulting in an illicit ‘gift’ which has a value of almost $125,000 in interest savings”.

3. FUNDRAISING??? Larry Johnson at No Quarter reports that “I got a call this afternoon from the Barack Obama campaign. (Apparently, they have hired Meyer Associates, who can be reached at 301 851-4961, to help them with fund raising.) The woman on the other end of the line opened with a pitch about Barack Obama representing “hope and change,” at which point I cut her off. I recounted the litany of Barack’s flip flops. Imagine my surprise (and my delight) when the woman sighed and said, “I agree with you.”

She went on to tell me that 70% of the people she had talked to during the last two days were telling her the same thing. Most, she said, were unwilling to vote for McCain and were vowing to stay home. Needless to say the fundraising was not going well. I mentioned that I had heard that Barack’s campaign failed to reach their fundraising goals for the second quarter. She confirmed that this was true. We had a very pleasant conversation. I wished her good luck and hung up.
4. Obama fundraiser host emphasizes: No Money For Hillary Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama may have presented a unified image last night in New York, but tensions between supporters of the two candidates continue to simmer…
For true-blue Obama loyalists, therefore, any request for money these days is being closely examined. To this end, when Ed Chandler, a Chicago venture capitalist and Obama donor, sent out an e-mail last week promoting an intimate dinner with the nominee for high-dollar donors he made clear to specify where the dollars were going.

“NONE OF THE MONEY RAISED WILL GO TO PAY OFF HILLARY CLINTON’S DEBTS,” Chandler wrote to potential givers in an e-mail obtained by Politico. “While you may have heard that Sen. Obama has asked people to make a separate donation to the Clinton campaign for that purpose, neither the law, nor the ethic of this campaign, will allow for any transfer of funds from Obama For America to Clinton.”

Money raised beyond the individual limits, Chandler notes, will instead go to the DNC.

5. CONSISTENCY IS THE HOBGOBLIN OF SMALL MINDS:

a) Statement from Sen. Obama’s Office on the FISA Bill
Monday, December 17, 2007
For Immediate Release Contact:Michael Ortiz, 202-228-5566

“Senator Obama unequivocally opposes giving retroactive immunity to telecommunications companies and has cosponsored Senator Dodd’s efforts to remove that provision from the FISA bill. Granting such immunity undermines the constitutional protections Americans trust the Congress to protect. Senator Obama supports a filibuster of this bill, and strongly urges others to do the same. It’s not clear whether he can return for the vote, but under the Senate rules, the side trying to end a filibuster must produce 60 votes to cut off debate. Whether he is present for the vote or not, Senator Obama will not be among those voting to end the filibuster.”

b) FRAN WALSH ON MOVE-ON: Wow, they must be desperate today! I replied to Wexler: Where were you when Hillary was attacked by sexism from Obama, and DNC, and fellow democrats? I told him good luck with Obama, and Rev. Wright, and Rezko, and William Ayers!
Click here to tell FOX:”FOX must stop injecting racism, prejudice, and fear into our political dialogue. We intend to hold FOX, its advertisers, and its personalities accountable for FOX’s attempts to smear the Obamas.”

Sign the petition

Dear Frances,

Below, you’ll find a very important email from MoveOn, regarding election coverage on Fox News. I encourage every one of you to sign their petition and forward this to your friends.

Thanks,

Congressman Robert Wexler

From MoveOn:

Right now, FOX is trying to paint Barack Obama as foreign, un-American, suspicious, and scary. They’re trying to send Americans the message that our country’s first viable black candidate for President is not “one of us.”

We’ve seen this before from FOX. They won’t stop until it becomes too painful to continue—until the public calls them out and advertisers start getting worried.

Now is the time to draw a line in the sand by putting FOX on notice that their behavior won’t be tolerated….

p.s. Can’t join you all in a glass of wine, (I had enough to drink by 1980) but will relax vicariously through you all. good night…Lorelai
