Happy Birthday Seneca Falls

Declaration of Sentiments

written and revised by Annabelle at Peacocks and Lilies and the Seneca 160 Committee.

On this, the 160th anniversary of the Women’s Conference at Seneca Falls, New York, and in accordance with the
Declaration of Sentiments of 1848, We The People reaffirm that all men and all women are created equal.

We reaffirm; that we are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty,
and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights governments are instituted, deriving their just powers from
the consent of the governed.

We reaffirm; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of those who
suffer from it to refuse allegiance to it, and to insist upon the institution of a new government, laying its foundation
on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety
and happiness.

We reaffirm; that the history of mankind is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations on the part of man toward
woman, having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her.

In light of this history, and in the understanding that men and women must be banded together in common cause to
change the course of this history, we affirm that:

Women’s rights are human rights, and human rights are women’s rights.

We are obligated to stand up and protect the rights of all people, regardless of gender, skin color, religion, sexual
orientation, nationality, or creed, to live in a society that upholds equality, freedom, and justice.

All people have a right to receive equal pay for equal work, have the freedom to share their lives with the partners of
their choice, and have access to the same opportunities for employment.

Every citizen of the United States of America is entitled to equal protection under the Constitution of the United
States.

No political body operating under the Constitution of the United States possesses the power or authority to violate
the rights of citizens protected by that Constitution.

Every vote cast by an eligible voter must be counted, and every vote cast and counted must be reflected fairly.

Every citizen of the world must be recognized as being in possession of the same inalienable human rights; to live
free from emotional, economic, religious, sexual, political, and physical oppression.

Firmly relying upon the final triumph of the Right and the True, we do this day affix our signatures to this

Declaration.

UPDATE JULY 19, 2008 at 10:45am: Hope everyone is feeling nice and uplifted after reading that. But if you start to think that speaking up politically as a woman is now safe and commonplace after 160 years, THINK AGAIN. Here’s a comment posted over at the Hireheels blog. The commenter’s name is Big Papa.

“You racist PUMA (pu$$ie$)CeeRackers aren’t fooling anybody. You hate Obama because he’s a strong, intelligent and accomplished Black man. You racist, man-hating pigettes are nothing but right wing trash, who are soon going to be extinct in the NEW America. There is a new generation rising to destroy you right wing conservative, racist female dogs, and male pigs. You’re all squealing demons who are going to Hell, and the world will be a much better place without you all! Say hello to the next POTUS- Barack Hussein Obama…you scummy beeeeotches!”

Happy Birthday to the Women’s Rights Movement!

Light posting today as I catch up on email and other things and get ready for the first Puma PAC radio show.

If you sent me an email I will respond today — but feel free to resend anything you think I should see right now.

Michelle Obama: Using Blogher to Talk to People Online - Blogher

So I go there are read her dribble about how she can relate to the working women with children - yeah right. And not one comment after her article. I’m guessing the Bo train of fans can’t blog it because being the kids they are, they can’t relate to 1. work and 2. caring for children. That and the idea Mo is as boring as heck when she tries to reach out to people.

#5 TrishfromCanada on 07.19.08 at 9:15 am

Good morning Murphy, hope you were able to rest after the past few busy days.

I can’t even comment professionally about MO. Let’s just say that I am not impressed with her.

Thank you Murphy for the great start to the day. Good morning those that are here. I saved this to my desktop. Been busy, Mom is doing fine… thought she might end up in the hospital.

What is the announcement that Hillary is going to make tomorrow? Anyone have an inkling of what it’s going to be?

#10 texassherry on 07.19.08 at 9:36 am

#9 bmw60,

Good morning. I haven’t heard anything about an announcement. I hope it is a positive one.

I just remembered that I read one of the posts that said that tomorrow that there would be an announcement about Hillary’s debt.

#13 TrishfromCanada on 07.19.08 at 9:41 am

Just checked my yahoo e-mail after a few days of ignoring it, received a sob story from the Bo boys:

Trish —

The McCain campaign is bragging that they are out-raising and out-spending us.

By collecting huge checks from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs, they raised more money than ever before in June. Combined with the Republican National Committee, they now have more than $95 million in cash on hand.

I recorded a short video in my office about what we are up against. Now is the time to step up and make your first donation to help us close the gap.

Please watch the video and make a donation of $25 now:

I’m going to send back a response that this is requesting a donation from a non-american and please send me the contact info for who I report it to.

We need some comments on this article. Turns out Christina is younger than my son. That explains a lot!

Has Puma Met It’s Match?
By Tommy Christopher

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and her name that sat on him was Christina, and Hell followed with her.

As I come close to wrapping up a week of stories about PUMA (People United Means Action, or Party Unity My Ass, or Pelting Unicorns Mit Acorns), I was hoping to have reached a state of Nirvana by now, in which I would clearly see that up really was down, and voting for John McCain was the way to strike a blow for women everywhere. After meeting (virtually) Darragh Murphy, the founder of PUMAPAC, and dipping a toe into the Just Say No Deal coalition’s cyber-pool, I was starting to feel like part of the gang.

But, then, I was contacted by Christina Cedeno, also known as The Anti-PUMA. She has put together a website that aims to act as smelling salts to those in a PUMA trance. The 22 year-old preschool teacher says she can’t wait to get mic’ed up and throw down with a real live PUMA. She says there aren’t that many of them.

MO appears so insincere in her words and actions. You can tell they have been working on her. In the early days of the campaign she would grit her teeth and roll her eyes during his speeches. You could tell she so disagreed with what he was saying.

#25 Henerietta on 07.19.08 at 10:04 am

As the anniversary of the Senica Falls convention is upon us, my thoughts wander beyond our current fight. This election in 2008 is truly historic. Not only did we have our first viable female candidate, but women have begun to participate in ways we never thought of before. The issue is not that a woman be at the helm for a woman being at the helm’s sake, rather that we, the people, need competent government. We elected a competent candidate who happens to be a woman.

I believe the issues we face are not just gender related. They certainly are not race related. They are people issues. We Democrats, have let common sense and competence be pushed aside for party unity many times before. It has yeilded us the likes of Dukakis, Kerry, Mondale and now Obama.

The truth is: The party has always had a destructive element. The back door deal has always been a shadow lurking just behind the curtain. The good ol boys club has always been part and parcel of our existence. The powers in the party accepted it, even nurtured it, using it for personal gain and issue success.

Now the time has come when we can no longer accept the status quo. The will of the people as defined by the one person one vote principle has been disregarded. Moreover, the will of the people has been disregarded since the first election of this century, both in the general election of 2000, and now in the Democratic Primary of 2008.

This fight and our movement isn’t just about the candidates. It is about our party, and in extension, about our nation and the world. We must not lose the fight for the soul of our people. We must not lose the principle of one person, one vote. We must insist on the allowance of participation by all, participation that counts equally with all others’ participation.

The women who gathered in protest to try to obtain the vote stood on just such a principle. They prevailed. It was a long hard battle, but they prevailed. The civil rights movement and voting rights reforms of the 1960’s were successful, and the people prevailed.

We must not go back to the deal making, behind doors double dealing of the precivil rights era. We must go forward, undoing the damage that was recently done; restoring our party to the principles it purports to stand for so that our nation can recover from the blows heaped upon it by the current people in power.

Would I cry me a river if Obama were elected -NO. Will I dance by the light of the moon if McCain is President -OF COURSE NOT. Will I go green this year -MAYBE http://www.gp.org/press.php Will I go back to the Democratic Party -VERY UNLIKELY. And whatever the outcome, will the world come to a screeching halt on Nov 4th, 2008 -HIGHLY DOUBTFUL!! {although there are those who surely think the sky is falling b/c they got hit in the head by a chunk of frozen airplane crap}

So while both major parties are being increasingly hijacked by the opposing extremist elements -and the never-ending partisan brawl drags on without a break in sight, is it any wonder that the majority of Americans NEVER bother to vote!! {oh yes we hear all about the tens of 1000s of new voters being registered this year -a mere raindrop in the barrel to the hundreds of millions of those who chose to forgo the melodrama and prepare to hunker down for another 4yrs… the poor, the elderly, the disabled, the weekend/evening/swing workers, single mothers, struggling parents, grandparents trying to raise their grandkids, the list is endless = ie ALL the Americans who for one reason or another don’t have “the means and the LUXURY of attending a CAUCUS” which is held only at a specific time and at very limited locations. Oh sure SenObama won ~fair and square~ in all those caucus states with the youth, the yuppies earning $200,000yr or more, the childless couples, the college profs, and everyone else with more than enough time to kill and resources to burn to “make a whole evening or an afternoon of it -big round of standing ovations”… Ohhh well, to the rest of y’all what can we say = ya snooze you lose peeps.

Personally I suspect that CJ is a “cross-over Republican = as in closet Democrat”. ROFLOL when a smoker quits who always makes the biggest stink about being seated by the “Smoking Section”? Like a reformed sinner/born again evangelical -who then proceeds to condemn the loudest, those now deemed less worthy. Or maybe even like Jim & Tammy Faye tsk tsk, OR better yet Aimee Semple McPherson http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aimee_Semple_McPherson

Who woulda ever thunk it = C.Jenkins is really a Republican in lamb’s clothing braawhahahahaha {whew hot flash nah just lost in the desert –go get’em Aimee publish your investigation} But doesn’t the anti-Puma look an awfully lot like the Obama girl on youtube LOL

Some great points on the aol blog though by Katherine… I copied this and will use it as a concise information indictment of this election year… what a great writer.

Katherine10:25AMJul 19th 2008

One more time:

___MEDIA:
Did not vet Obama. Protected and promoted Obama. Never covered his resume, background, or Chicago life accurately. Media never called him on his huge, obvious, blatant lies. Media actually regarded him in terms of a Christ-like figure. Media used sexism and misogyny freely against Hillary (thereby all women). Media pushed theory that misogyny is nothing compared to racism. Media pushed that Hillary supporters were uneducated and racist. Media called for Hillary to quit since Iowa, and that is unprecedented. Media via Obama’s camp pushed that Senator Clinton and former President Clinton were racists. Online media, such as big blogs, censored and attacked Hillary supporters, and the online media was just as bad, if not worse than mainstream media. Wacky inaccurate polls showing Obama winning huge but then Hillary winning. Why would the majority of the media “be in the tank” for Obama? Is it possible that only 6% of the media is owned by women and maybe it’s a sexist business: yes. Is it possible that media consolidation, in which only a few very wealthy people, billionaires, each own huge chunks of magazines, newspapers, and TV shows…and their agenda is to push their personal politics via the media? Yes. Is it possible that people were bought off or promised favors? Yes.

**Never trust the media when they are so obviously pushing PROPAGANDA: it is half the reason why we went to war.

__________________

___DEM PARTY ELITE:
The never called out the media for crossing the line with racist accusations, and also their misogyny, and crowning of Obama. Howard Dean, Pelosi, Kerry, Kennedy,et al, etc etc calling for Hillary to stop, or insulting her, or insulting her supporters, and all the while putting HIGH pressure on superdelegates to endorse their candidate, AGAIN: totally unprecedented, the superdelegates vote in August, and they can change their minds whenever they want, however they were pressured to choose, and to choose Obama. Furthermore: superdelegates went against their own state’s wishes. Hillary would win a state like Mass, and Kerry and Kennedy would immediately come out to endorse Obama, and that is antithetical to their position. Superdelegates also came out to endorse every time Obama had a very bad time, like Wright= Richardson endorsement. W. Virginia= Edwards, and on and on. It felt like they were pocket supers and there was a rigging, frankly.

**Always look to a deeper question on why one candidate is seemingly pre-chosen: is it possible that money is behind it? Is it possible that candidates are pre-chosen–as in groomed, and protected and promoted? Is it possible that careers were threatened in that cold political way? Is it possible that politicians are crooked and greedy and do not have the best interests in mind for America as a nation? Yes. Is it possible that politicians are forced to give favors in order to survive in politics. Yes.
_______________________

Ok, these two things alone were very apparent to hard-core Hillary supporters. Then:

___The VOTES: May 31, 2008
Throw in the rules and bylaws committee, not only had the states been erased (which was never in the rules: half a vote was always and ONLY the rules), they then severed the two states Hillary won by half, and claimed that to be a gift, when it was always the rules in the first place, but THEN they also handed over MI delegates to Obama, even though he removed himself from the ticket because the polls showed he would lose. He was even on the ticket: they gave him delegates. That’s now not only silencing votes but stealing votes. AND: it was determined in part by Donna Brazille who was so obviously pro-Obama on CNN and elsewhere, yet one who claimed to be neutral. So, she had a “neutral” vote, and that was not the truth. Brazille also stated that she did not need Hillary’s voters for Obama to win, she said it was a new party. Ok, dumb thing to say. Also, the entire rules committee had a behind the scenes closed door meeting the whole night before. Who knows what went down. The public was shut out.

Then, there are the wowers:
Obama won states by caucus, when they matter very little in the general election. So we would see a small red republican state won by caucus to Obama, when a large blue dem state that voted 300% higher would matter LESS than a pumy amount of people at a caucus. Very backwards, also unfair since Hillary voters were not the bloc of people likely to make it to caucuses in the day time. Also, our military overseas, our citizens overseas, homebound people, and hospitalized people, etc, can not make it to caucuses–obviously. That’s not right, anyway, but Obama’s moveon crowd bussed his voters in to precincts, and we now know that Hillary voters were lied to, re-routed to a non-location, and also locked out of venues, or told that there were cancellations, or the environment was so mosh-pit like, people left or experienced hell, so while Hillary dems were getting shut out, Obama supporters were allowed to stroll in after shut-door time. There are many cases of suspected voting fraud, in many precincts as well, and there will be more info on that.

***Hillary won the popular vote, MI and FL do count. Hillary won the major big blue dem states. Hillary won the major purple swing states. Hillary polled toward the electoral college showed Hillary beating McCain and big, and McCain beating Obama big. Hillary gathered the majority of the dem party voting blocs. Hillary was outspent 4 to 1, while having the media and her party attacking her, and she still kept winning. There ALSO exit polls showing that way more Hillary dems would NOT vote for Obama compared to Obama voters who would not vote for Hillary if she won. Throw in that Hillary has more experience and she’s an actual true democrat with democratic principles: Hillary was and still is the one to beat McCain. It’s just logical.

–So, for those many reasons I am indignant over the Media, the dem party elite, and the dem party manipulations as a whole. I feel that Obama was selected and not elected. I feel that it was just politically fixed and maneuvered in such an obvious and shameless manner…I will not be FORCED to vote a certain way. The dem party has a lot of cleaning up to do, and if WE don’t do it? WHO WILL? WHO? The American people need to rein in politicians when they get too much power. They ARE working for US. WE are their bosses!! A couple of hundred rich elites should not be in control of our destiny, especially when they do not vote in line of the will of those who voted in their own states, people who elected them! It can’t be that way, the people should have the word.

–Anyway, I can add a lot more, but there the media and the dem party complaint in a nutshell.
_________________________________________

And, I didn’t even mention why I will not vote for Obama because of OBAMA yet!! My gawd he is a total fraud, from his upbringing, to his “present” votes, to his voting for Bush’s FISA bill, and Cheney’s energy bill, and planning on expanding Bush’s faith based programs (separation of church and state!) to receiving money from convicted Tony Rezko, a man who also raised 3 million for BUSH in Chicago for his second term….from the bogus policies Obama claims are his, while his votes show the opposite, to promising one group one thing and then opposite group what they want, and on and on, I could write a book. LITERALLY write a book on how much Obama has lied, and on how false he is, and how he is just a groomed and boosted politician who is actually just an opportunist, and a foolishly ruthless man, someone who has made so many promises, I don’t even know what he’d have to do as far as favors in return–political quid pro quo. Beyond that, he is intolerably arrogant–he’s bordering on megalomania, which is heinously dangerous.

Also, I do NOT see Obama as a democrat–AT ALL! I see him as a man who is confused and drunk on power, someone who wants to change America because he hates America and I’m not sure that he actually wants to make America better or if he simply wants to destroy capitalism, or maybe he is totally corporate/ republican minded for himself, or maybe he is a communist, or maybe he is anti-Israel and wants to start a war in some dumb way, maybe he wants to flip flop our allies for our enemies, maybe he wants to ban guns and start up a USA-style gestapo, or maybe he hates white people and wants to force them to pay reparations, or maybe he hates black people since he let them live in 30 degrees below zero Chicago winters for two months, or maybe he wants to rule the world, or maybe he is a sociopath, or maybe he is just a puppet. On and on.

—BOTTOM LINE: People do not trust him. He won’t win in the end because the media never reported enough about what people know, so they see it as a cover-up. All things should have been covered thoroughly and if they were false–prove it, all of that should have happened over 6 months ago. He’s been jammed down people’s throats, people run away from that, and we can see that others embrace and do not question.

There is not one reason for me to trust Obama, NOT ONE. He’s a pathological liar, and he barely has a record, and what little he does have is actually awful. Also, I’m tired of the bogus theory that Obama is stopping any war–like there would be peace. He wants us in Iraq for the next two years, and then refocus our military on fighting in Afghanistan. War is war no matter where. Looks like we will be at war for at least 5 years longer with either McCain or Obama.

Ok, you know I can add a lot more, and with details, etc. I am done. I’ve said what I have to say on this.

#48 Lin4Hill on 07.19.08 at 10:41 am

Henrietta - I think you have touched on the chord that is vibrating the most in the midst of all the work we are doing here–we are rebirthing this constitution, evolving it as well to include the new world order and millions of disenfranchised. What started out as outrage for a worthy candidate’s dismissal and her voters has become a call to wake up America to our constitutional purpose and the moral ethics of basic respect to the multitude of voters.

#49 murphy on 07.19.08 at 10:43 am

Sista Christian over at Hireheels received this comment from one of the shit-flies, Big Papa. nice name by the way. Very subtle. Very secure and manly. What’s that you say? Projection? Nahhh! no way! I’m sure he is VERY BIG and MANLY just like he says he is.
here’s the comment, stay classy Obama Movement, stay classy:
“You racist PUMA (pu$$ie$)CeeRackers aren’t fooling anybody. You hate Obama because he’s a strong, intelligent and accomplished Black man. You racist, man-hating pigettes are nothing but right wing trash, who are soon going to be extinct in the NEW America. There is a new generation rising to destroy you right wing conservative, racist female dogs, and male pigs. You’re all squealing demons who are going to Hell, and the world will be a much better place without you all! Say hello to the next POTUS- Barack Hussein Obama…you scummy beeeeotches!”

#47 bmw60,

I agree. I don’t want to waste that much time with them so I just tell them to research before opening their mouths and that they are in for a big surprise in November if they doubt the power of Puma.

A lot of people have given good information to the Obama supporters but they are so thick skulled that they won’t listen so that is why I tell them to research for themselves. Hopefully a few will and then maybe they will see the truth.

It’s my impression that they will only serve to spread the word about Puma and, frankly, their little minds cannot be touched by the element of truth. Let ‘em rant!!! The echo chamber inside their heads, especially Christine’s must be overwhelming!!!

#55 bmw60 on 07.19.08 at 10:49 am

I was able to talk to the lady who is doing the financing for our new car.. .. she may be a new PUMA… if not here, in her heart… she brought up the subject in conversation and I sent her the information from Katherine above (I had already given her a flier and she appreciated it)… and the new Republican O ad… so it works to talk to everyone folks.

Murphy, do BO and MO realize what wonderful people they have in their minions?
THIS is part of NEW America? Isn’t this the stuff we scrape out of our drainpipes and throw in landfills?
I know this does not comprise the entire makeup of his followers, but it represents a significant number, and THAT is frightening. What will they do when he doesn’t win? How will they channel that lovely energy they spew?
God help us.

#64 mpdamon on 07.19.08 at 10:55 am

Today I’m sending e-mails to the networks asking why we have to be subjected to hours of Obama pandering.
Then I’ll send letters to European newspapers pointing out the obvious ( to us at least ): that Obama is a PRESUMPTIVE nominee, that many Americans oppose him, and that he’s using the citizens and media of other countries to furthur his own agenda. I may also suggest that ( for a small fee of course ) we will be willing to provide a state ( i.e., Mt Rustmore, Statue of Liberty, Lincoln Memorial ) to aspiring European politicians.

#65 mpdamon on 07.19.08 at 10:55 am

#66 Lin4Hill on 07.19.08 at 10:56 am

As for Christina or any other copy-dogs (don’t want to dishonor cats…) who attempt anti-PUMA chatter or websites, you are right–they only serve to give us more notice. Surely the only ones who will visit those sites are their own kind, just dogs chasing their own tails…
They will get nowhere.

Remember, PUMAs, we stalk. We watch. We wait. We pounce.

I do not keep track of all the names, therefore I could not recognize if they are PUMASor not, of course I do recognize the most common…..
I was thinking that if could be a troll , the incendent where the bolgger made unfortunate comentary, they got themself so carried away with manipulation, they could blog here some trash and get on our back immediately for it

*61 brings out the ‘dictator’ in his aspiring followers.

#71 queen81 on 07.19.08 at 11:03 am

I’ll not be justifying or validating “Christina” with any form of response on her site. I have no need for negativity from a 22 year old who hasn’t even lived life long enough to form an educated opinion on anything. I certainly wouldn’t dream of telling my Pumas what to do, just my mode of action.

#72 Lin4Hill on 07.19.08 at 11:05 am

Agree on the action of contacting network heads to protest the anchor-adoration of BO’s European visit. I’ve already written a few comments to European papers on line, but this also needs to go to network headquarters. They are responsible for this travesty.

#73 Goalucard4Hill on 07.19.08 at 11:06 am

Was just on my way out the door - so don’t know all the story about Christina - think she is teacher and a reporter??? Anyway - what WE NEED TO DO as Pumas is find a reporter that is up and coming and needs attention from the media - feed him or her all the information and true facts and make it a win win situation for all of us - I think I recall that EWard had a listing of some such upcoming reporters - I would write it up for them but I do not have the talents of Antifish, GoAndersen, and Dragonfly - ok - I am off - my two cents for the day.

#74 MountainSong on 07.19.08 at 11:06 am

#76 TrishfromCanada on 07.19.08 at 11:08 am

#68 antifish

i think many of them are from the ME generation. We all saw them grow up and were focused only on themselves. Those are the people who entered the workforce expecting to be Management on day one. They were never told you work your way up the ladder and they were greatly disillusioned when reality hit. I love interviewing these kids and asking their salary expectations, many want more than the bosses make. But the best part is watching them open their first pay and seeing their eyes cross when they realize their is this little thing called taxes.

#77 Goalucard4Hill on 07.19.08 at 11:08 am

OK and I agree with Lin4Hill regarding comments in the European newspapers - back in the old HRC days - Wizard and a couple of others did that and the whiner complained that the reason he did not go to West Virginia and Kentucky was because of the negative posts and media attention there - lets help him out a little.

#79 Goalucard4Hill on 07.19.08 at 11:10 am

I am really really going out the door - but storyteller - what I think should be done in the European newspapers is quote polls as well - since everyone only knows what CNN is betraying - in addition to all the other little flip flops that he does that they might not be involved in - and in particular something that would effect Europes viewpoints like in Iraq etc.

#80 Goalucard4Hill on 07.19.08 at 11:10 am

From Andy Martin: Contrarian Commentary regarding *61’s “World Tour.”

“One of Obama’s African-American ‘advisers,’ Susan Rice, was quoted as saying Obama is going to ‘demand’ more of a contribution from Europe in world affairs. I am sure the British are going to take wonderfully to having a Kenyan order them around. The Lion King will be lecturing the lion tamers.

“The British will also be delighted to learn that Germany is going to be the centerpiece of Obama’s photo-ops. So much for loyalty. By the end of this trip Obama will have advertised to the entire world that he is an arrogant twit with an ego the size of a ham.

#82 ClintonRules on 07.19.08 at 11:12 am

I’m having a little bit of trouble scrolling up the page (mouse issues) but I did see a few comments directed to me.

I’d like to everyone for their hospitality towards me. I am proud to have fought for this country. I have emailed my friends overseas and they have informed me that there are more members of the military who know how bad *61 is than the DNC would care to admit (or believe.)

So I don’t think we have much to worry about there…but it would be a good idea to inform those you know who are overseas. The more we inform, the more ammo (bad choice of wording there) they’ll have when/if they muct defend their choice for President.

Not sure if I’ll be on anymore today (I’ll def. try) I’m taking my daughter to the zoo. It should be…fun? Me, with a cane, but it will be worth it…she’s been begging me to go. She wants to see the Polar bears…

Can you imagine the media scrambling when BO loses. I would guess CNN and MSNBC will blame it all on Hillary and racism, and FOX will just sit back and smile, saying under their breath “We told you so”.

I was going to speak, but thought you were gone..Glad to have you back!

#91 slyt2 on 07.19.08 at 11:21 am

I just got off the phone with my mom and read that letter Murphy you posted. I just love how via internet people say things to make them sound so tough and scary and it gives them a free pass to be as nasty as they can be. #49 and #83 MountainSong I agree with you there.

#92 slyt2 on 07.19.08 at 11:27 am

Cnn just did a fact check on OB’s TV ad and believe it or not they found out it wasn’t all true.. Yes you heard me they actually said he wasn’t being totally truthfully , now they didn’t use that word but said they found that he didn’t work to put himself through school as stated he only had two jobs in the summer.

#93 Goalucard4Hill on 07.19.08 at 11:27 am

Thank you Antifish - could never LEAVE YOU for too long - you know that - yes I am still lurking - just waiting for the grandkids - meeting up with Marc at the zoo - not the same zoo - but the zoo as well -

Antifish - you really could come up with a good letter for the editors of the newspapers in Europe - I love your writing style - always have - just the points like Kathleen on post above - shortened for the newspapers regarding the DNC, the Media in the US, the polls - Rasmussen and Gallop = with only one percent or two percent differences when it was the Democrats time to take off after Bush leaves - the flip flops - the issues that no name one is pressing that is not in the best interest of Europe or the rest of the world - can throw in his own little civilian milita - if we could come up with a condensed version of all of this - people would be booing him rather than saluting him.

OK - grandkids are pulling at my leg to go go go - so I am gone gone gone - no more lurking for today.

#89 Middle age female,

You are absolutely right, they will blame it on Hillary and racism. There is no doubt they will spin it that direction. In reality though, the blame falls squarely on the DNC, Nobama, and the media. We have to make sure that people know this when Nobama loses. They will also blame groups like ours.

OK - I lied - one of them had to go to the bathroom first so I could post a little more - Rasmussen Reports shows only a 2 point lead for no name - but with leaners tied - in the Carolinas both are tied at 44% - and half of the voters have an unfavorable view of the Democrat - Rasmussen shows a lot of close States for them both and some that McCain is ahead by double digits -

Of course the DNC will blame Hillary when they lose. The DNC is just a bunch of power grubbing elitists. It will be a major war to get these people out of the party. I actually think the most effective way to deal with them is to leave the dysfunctional Democrat party to them and let them continue doing the ineffective things they do which will keep them busy. Then quietly form a new party that represents real people and their needs. The fact that the BO folks and DNC passionately dislike us will just give us more credibility with real people. And as far as the Media go I think they have destroyed any credibility they had with thinking Americans. They have made themselves a joke and if it weren’t for the fact that they hold a monopoly over the TV system and act as gatekeepers of who has a voice, they would be out of business. the only current reason anyone subscribes to TV service is for sports. The rest of the programing is generally assumed to be garbage.

#15 Antifish-
I responded to that article on the anti-puma. She is a typical Obamabot.

I have met Christina Cedeno on various blogs and if you challenge her on any of the issues she generally resorts to insults, name calling and race baiting. She cannot debate the issues. She was the one who posted Murphy’s documents on the internet without blanking out her home address,under the pretext of displaying “proof” that Murph was a Repupublican conspirator. The so called proof was an eight year old donation to McCain during his primary campaign against Bush. The posting of the address was a clear attempt to intimidate her. Christine’s Obamabots have even made death threats, but it will not serve them.

#136 wontbackdown on 07.19.08 at 12:41 pm

… P.S. I really do not believe that I am “racist” and neither do my African American friends.

In fact, they don’t trust Obama either and think the whole racist issue is a crock and doing damage to race relations rather than bringing constuctive awarness and dialog.

They blame his “political ambition” and think him to be an ‘opportunistic fake at the expense of African Americans.’ You would not believe the number that do believe he is more ‘Muslim-oriented’ in political culture than African Amercian Christian heritage. They just do not talk about it with his ‘radical ’supporters’.

Maybe get media exposure before the fact so if it happens we can show people IN TRUTH it was not a democratic selection???? JMO

In the tank: Worshipping media to follow Obama around the world; Update & Bump: AOL Hot Seat Poll

posted at 11:50 am on July 19, 2008 by Ed Morrissey

Hillary Clinton’s campaign complained loudly that the media treated Barack Obama like a rock star instead of a presidential candidate. Saturday Night Live made itself relevant for the first time in a generation by skewering the love affair that the mainstream media had with Obama, finally embarrassing them into asking a few tough questions of Obama — after more than a year. Now, with Obama embarking on his world tour, all three broadcast networks will have their anchors trailing him, apparently hoping to record every bon mot that escapes from his lips:

Precious is in Afghanistan - should be interesting to see what the MSM says about that - guess I’ll check in at Fox & see what they have to say - they were really on them last night - saying that all of the MSM are in the tank for *61 and just love him - why? what is there? I think he looks like alfred e neuman, has a problem with English without a teleprompter, associated with crooks (and they(whoever they are) always say one is known by the company one keeps), he has no record of accomplishments that are in any way meaningful, he needs 300 people to advise him on foreign affairs - gawd almighty - is he comparing himself to the Spartans - LOL - that scrawny arugula eatin’ wimpy girly man - oh Hillary, where are you???

#145 wontbackdown on 07.19.08 at 12:49 pm

#136 wontbackdown… I will say it again. If you could hear the story my friend from Cuba tells about how Castro deceived them by getting them involved in his “movement to change” the government, it would make your hair stand on end as to the similarties to Obama. The similarities fae out-weigh the differences.

I hate to think about what the man’s agenda is - and he is darn sure not going to tell us, anymore than Castro told his followers, until it was way too late to stop it.

4hill and cats the long way but easier to understand……..Put cursor at beginning or end of what you want to copy and hold down shift key. move cursor and highlight in blue all you want to copy. go to edit and select copy..then go to box for reply click cursor there and then go back to edit and hit paste. copied piece will show up in reply box.

for a new piece of article repeat the process.

if you want to add text above what you have pasted go in front of first pasted piece and hit return a couple of times. You can then move your cursor back up to the freed up space and add your comments.
Hope this helps.

It does not take a lot of people to do a whole lot of damage really fast, especially when your moral compass is pointing to a “leader” that 1) incites it 2) encourages it 3) ignores it 4) denies it 5) uses it to his full advantage over an entire political party

All of us are making a difference, every single day.
Please stay positive and don’t let crude remarks upset you, not today. These folks are trying to get a reaction. Sometimes it’s best to walk away from all that crap.
I love you all, have a great day.

I read a comment on one of the blogs - don’t remember which one - that said “there’s a new group - Obama & the 3 Anchors - will they be putting out an album & selling tee shirts when they return from their overseas tour? - It’s kinda funny but also very, very sad - the media used to call themselves the 4th estate & worked with the governmental agencies to make sure that what was published was accurate - where are the investigative journalists - the media is all controlled by major corporations who are more interested in profit than truth - I believe the little newspapers are the only ones who would have the guts to print the whole truth about *61……………I also think that more people read their local papers than read the larger ones so think I will try to compile a list of the smaller papers in my state and see what kind of response I get to editorial letters or opinion pieces………………we gotta get the word out somehow & this might be a way to reach people who don’t have computers or if they do, do not blog……………………

Keep hitting them hard with logic, diplomacy and grace and watch them crumble. It may not be a bad idea to remind people that Puma Pac is just one group and that JSND had raised close to 10 million. They seem to want to use the numbers raised for June by our group alone. It doesn’t look as if they are still underestimating us but they are sure trying to fool the public into believing that we minute are quite insignificant.

Keep on truckin’ for this noble cause :-)

#164 Katrina on 07.19.08 at 1:15 pm

This is going to be my first and last post. I came to check out your group at the recommendation of my dear friend MarylandPUMA. She has been so excited to be part of your movement that I wanted to see for myself the “great group of women” she is always talking about. I disagree with your position, but because I know MarylandPUMA to be an intelligent woman I wanted to give you all a look-see out of respect for her.

All was well until I got to Murphy’s post this morning about one of her detractors being a “piece of shit”, and her supporters “shit-flies”. I was stunned. This is how a woman smart enough to put a group like this together responds to adversity? With name calling and vulgarity? On a public site where I’d think she’d want to make a good impression on folks like me visiting for the first time? Well, she made an impression, but it was far from good. There is so much low-class mud-slinging going on in politics right now, I was hoping this group would be above it. And maybe most of you are, but if your leader isn’t, I’m very discouraged about the image you will be able to maintain. I realize I’m just one person and don’t mean anything to any of you but MarylandPUMA, but please consider: if I was offended enough to speak up, how many other people may have come here, read Murphy’s rant and just went away shaking their heads with a permanent distaste for your group.

We can copy and paste the garbage Murphy posted this morning and if anyone else has other nasty posts, please put them here. Maybe we can get them all together and do another action Monday.

By the way, this really ticks me off: http://www.2008unity.org/
Last year I sent $25.00 to Sam Waterson of Law & Order who was starting a unity08 website that would be true unity with both a Repub and Dem on one ticket. That ticket was supposed to be made up of whomever was left after the primaries. I have never heard from them again except maybe once or twice and the above link was what I got when I googled Waterson and his unityo8. So now we have another get together on race. I’m sick of this and I want my $25 back. I’m calling the FEC and reporting this.

Hello-I just returned from the Seneca160 breakfast for Hillary in Seneca Falls NY. It was held in conjunction with the Convention Days celebrating the 160th anniversary of the First Women’s Rights Convention. As Jane-pa said, it was great to be with other like-minded people and where vocal support of Hillary was accepted and encouraged. Heidi Li of Heidi Li Potpourri blog and cofounder of the Denver Group was interesting and invigorating, as always! I hope as many of us as possible will meet each other in Denver and show the Democratic Party, our country and people around the world that there are still people in our country who are standing up for true democratic principles and demand to be heard and counted.

#184 ladyhawkke on 07.19.08 at 1:41 pm

Murphy, the reason I posted that about sending it to others, including Obama’s campaign HQ, was that when I made my calls yesterday to the Chairs of the DNC, I had a 20″ conversation with a man who answered the phone and he thought the whole process was flawed. He was the one who suggested contacting Obama’s HQ because he said sooner or later BO would have to confront the idea that he can’t win the Hillary supporters and that her name must be put in nomination.

Along with that, we need to send them the hate we are receiving.

Also, here’s an e-mail I got from Ricki Lieberman, I’m sure she has really bad ones which we need to get from her.
“All,
I lead a very quiet life. Sometimes days go by and the phone never rings, not even from tele-marketing. Today, however, starting just after 4pm, I received a steady stream of calls from Texas (many), Vermont, Denver, somewhere in the south, New York, Eddie, Jeff Wood, Donna Charett, John Doe, pre-recorded music, and more hang ups than I can count. My assistant and I tried *69 for some of the calls, but where there was a number we could not locate a name on reverse look-up.

Hmmm - why am I suddenly so popular? Well, it turned out that Huffington Post allowed comments to post my name, address and phone number. Immediately the calls started coming. Those who spoke warned me not to say anything against Obama, to stop sending emails ‘defaming’ the ‘chosen candidate’. Several were quite threatening in tone, a couple obscene. Some folks thought I ought to “go back to where I came from”. Others said I was not a real American.

One guy asked me to cry and whine. When we tried to take a message or a number to return the calls, the callers turned abusive and slammed down the phone. At one point it got so absurd that we could not stop giggling.

Then by 6:00 the calls had stopped. On to the next target.

As Maureen Dowd wrote this morning: “Don’t mess with our messiah!”

Sigh. These are not nice people.
GO GO GO!
Ricki

BTW - Robin Bryant to me
Another thing, if your gonna smear the guy at least tell the truth and not your lies. You are a Rush Limbaugh on drugs, fueled by anger and envy. I hope they throw you under the bus with Joe Lieberman you traitors. You say your for Hillary and Dems but you vote for McCain if Obama is the Nominee and don’t try to say you won’t because you will you sick sore loser. Why don’t you take your $100,000 and get some medical help because you need it. Your no Dem….

I truly believe it is all about the “money” and the number of new voters being drawn to the “democratic party”.

They all want to tap into that pool of donors for the long haul of controlling the legislative contests.

It really isn’t about “him” it is about the “donor machine” he created early on through facebook, etc.

As long as he has the money hammer, he has a “get out of jail free” card on issues, flip-flops-inexperience, etc.

He can even dump on his internet supporters and get away with it because he just goes out and replaces them.

What is that about… using the people you dumped on to go out and rally your replacements? They see that.

Maybe, we need to be challenging his supporters more creatively. If they won’t help him increase his voter pool (=$donors$) and they start having “party identity” issues with voters, NOW, that is when the congressional seats are impacted.

Point 3: The DNC is thinking they can deal with his “power-mongering” later.

His problem between now and the convention needs to be that:

1) he is a real detriment to legislative seats and in future elections.

2) his supporters realize this man is out of control over thinking he can control everyone by the power of using their money - and investing any of it in their good: (FISA, Iraq War, Reversing Welfare Reform - which he was against the reform bill, etc., etc., etc)

HEADLINE:

SO, You honestly think that Barack Obama if FOR YOU?

THINK AGAIN!

He is for your money and your vote… and he won’t be using either one for your good! If he won’t stand up for your rights over your governments now, what makes you think he will do it later?

#174, ladyhawkke
the truth is that when he is not given a speech,
his manners and language are detestable
his body language is that of a streetwise, plain vulgar
his capacity for critisim is null
he starts whimpering sort of like
and asking his interlocutor why he brings out his negative points
great politician¡¡

#187 WONTBACKDOWN It is all about the money and George Soro’s takeover of the Democratic Party. I just received a dossier in the form of a magazine from LaRouce Pac entitled “Your Enemy George Soros,” theman destroying the Democratic Party. I contributed $15 to their cause and also to help get the DVD 1932 distributed. They have 200,000 dossiers that they are releasing. It is a very interesting read. You may be able to read it online. LaRouche claims the election belongs to Hillary as she is trying to bring back the FDR days and will not be beholden to the DNC. That they can’t control her like they will BO.

Murphy, I sent you an e-mail and will mail it to you if you wish.

http://politics.propeller.com/story/2008/07/18/susan-estrich-it-should-be-a-democratic-year

Although the author’s personal point seems to be to want to pressure more Democrats to hurry up and fall into line, this article is a warning that Obama is on course to lose the election despite the media fantasy to the contrary. It’s worth checking out because we can use her points in our letters to superdelegates to bolster the “unelectability” argument about the Selected One, and and encourage them, as unpledged delegates, to back Hillary Clinton as the only Dem candidate that can beat McCain.

#195 wontbackdown on 07.19.08 at 2:06 pm

#192 RoseCityfriend:

I swear they are not nearly as concerned about his beating McCain as they are about that voter-donor pool.

In the short run a president would be nice, but controlling congress and the senate is it is worth a heck of a lot more to them than answering to an egomaniacal “president”.

You watch them turn on him if their own seats are in jeoprody.

Not discouraged, ticked off is more like it. I dislike followers, sheep, fools whatever you want to call them. I want people to be passionate about what they believe in, the only time Bo’s flock are passionate is when they’re crapping on Hillary and her supporters. Otherwise, they just follow him blindly and that gets to me.Should call themselves doorknockers because that’s about as much life as they have in them.

See this is what happens when I read the Bo blogs, I gotta stay off them or I’ll pop a vein.

#199 StarDust on 07.19.08 at 2:10 pm

I still believe we should be trying to hit the swing states with information such as Hillary has just suspended not conceded. That the Super Delegates real vote is not made until the convention, that the Super Delegates job at voting for a nominee is to select the one that is best qualified to beat John McCain. That Obama is not experience enough to go up against John McCain and that his short over glamorized resume proves he should not have made Senator, let alone letting him become the Democratic Party nominee. Then to go on to mention Hillary’s 35 years experience her accomplishments in her crusade for women, children and post Gulf War vets. Maybe we can then target newspapers in the swing states with smaller page ads or even use cable target marketing which is much cheaper spot TV advertising (designed to be cost effective to small business owners) to reach people with this information in swing states.

#200 ClintonRules on 07.19.08 at 2:14 pm

Hey everyone! :)

I watched that video on youtube of Hillary (the one about abortion) OMG!!! I am pumped! lets get our nomination back! :)

THAT is the person who should be President NOW!!

I am writing a blog…IDK what its going to be about (I usually dont until it’s finished) but I will post it on here :)

I sent about 200 letters to SDs today, left about 105 flyers at walmart, and will probably be leaving more at the mall this afternoon.

I read that comment by Katherine… and I want to offer the observation that before the PUMA movement and the JSND coalition officially got underway — I found myself constantly surfing Main Stream articles for information. I often read the links from AOL and Yahoo news. I would also always read the comments to get a sense of how many people out there felt the same as I do. Two people would always comment with ideas that were extremely PUMA-like in nature. One person is this Katherine lady and another is someone with the username Davidg. To this day — I always hope that both of them are now part of our JSND coalition… and still always look for comments from them. They do an awesome job in presenting valid points.

#204 ClintonRules on 07.19.08 at 2:16 pm

UPDATE (on post 198):

I actually finished my blog…I took one I started yesterday and completed it…here it is:

TITLE: Tomorrow is more than just another day:

Picture this:

A man stands in front of a large group of people as he pokes fun at his own countrymen. He jokes about their inabilities when it comes to speaking another language. Sounds harmless, doesn’t it? But it isn’t, for this man is not only an “American” making fun of his “fellow” Americans. This is an “American” making fun of his “fellow” Americans while in another country. He carries on with this carping attack on the average American’s inablity to speak more than one language. And he does so as a PRESUMPTIVE “DEMOCRATIC” nominee.

This shows disrespect on so many levels. This man holds the average American, the core of this country, in contempt simply for not possessing an arsenal of linguistic skills. In doing so, he has not only voiced his belief that the core of this country, the backbone of this nation, is uneducated, he has also shown everyone present that he condones such criticism of his own people. Is this the kind of person we want in the highest office in the world?

I am not alone in my frustrations over this man’s free ride. He seems to show little to no regard for the average American. It’s a sad time to be in America, when your voice is silenced by those you chose to represent you. These people you voted in to ensure your opinion would be heard and considered. It’s these very people who are now our enemy. Democracy is thrown to the wolves and the hounds have been sent on the attack…but the PUMAS continue to be on the prowl, lurking in the shadows, awaiting the next opportunity to strike back.

The average American, the majority of this country, those who fight more battles on a daily basis than a single person should ever have to, have but 2 people in their corner…2 people who have never left their side. 2 people who want nothing more than to better the lives of each and every one of us…the Clintons are still our allies. They have been baited, attacked, all but pushed off the planet…and through it all, they are more than ready to step back in the ring…for US.

The PRESUMPTIVE “DEMOCRATIC” nominee has repeatedly shown where he stands with the average American. So many of his supporters have been thrown under the bus in an effort for him to gain momentum (a failed attempt, but one that should not go unnoticed.) One wonders if this is his way of disposing of what he considers “dead weight.”

Only one person is ready to lead us into a better tomorrow. Only one person can pick up the pieces and reshape this country into the strong, respected force it used to be. Only one person wants to be the President for the people. And that one person is being ignored by her party, she is fighting in order to keep hope alive that her name will be placed on the ballot for nomination at the convention. She’s been fighting for us for a long time, her entire career has been one uphill battle after another. Do we really think she’ll give up the fight and take the lesser job under the counterfeit candidate? Do we really believe she not longer possesses the fighting spirit we so admire? Do we really think she’s done?

I for one do not believe she is giving up the fight. The battle has yet to be lost, the calls for unity by the opposition will never be answered. If we had to vote today, we would have to choose between two Republicans. But when we vote tomorrow, we will choose between a Republican and the greatest possible choice for President of the United States of America.

Tomorrow is more than just another day…tomorrow is OUR day.

Let freedom ring and the angels sing as we lead ourselves to victory, to prosperity, to Hillary.

Onward! Upward! Never backwards!

He may have second thoughts with all the flip flops.

#208 ClintonRules on 07.19.08 at 2:19 pm

I think we should really just flood hillary’s email with positive material. Let her worry about making sure her name is on the ballot (among other things)

We’re the ones who have the ability to speak out against the negative things going on (she cant) so there’s no reason to flood the email with it…

Does that sound mean? Because if it did I certainly dont mean it that way :)

About this Christina person - ignore her. It’s real hard for her to argue with her followers. If we acknowledge her, we give her strength and power to hurt us - I don’t think so!! Many of you already know that Anger and Hate takes up alot of our precious time. This is just another “attack” mode.

I keep trying to tell all of you that you just do not realize the strenth of your group. One day the Press won’t be saying “Hillary’s Supporters”, they’ll be saying PUMA!!!! You are as powerful as Women’s Suffrage, Prohibition, etc. There are many men and women that respect strength that comes with creditability and action. Just keep doing what your doing and support everyone that works so hard for a common goal.

http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/donations.asp

#225 delphinefromfrance on 07.19.08 at 2:35 pm

Hello Pumas !
I’ve seen several of your comments today which say you ought to contact European newspapers.
As I promised two days ago, I’ve written to a lot of French papers, TV channels, radios, and internet medias, to let them know about what is happening in your beautiful country.
I’ve told them about you, Pumas, your goals, your action, and about the Denver group, strongly advising them to get informed, and to stop telling everybody in France that Obama is the sure winner in November.
I’ve explained that his trip to Afghanistan, Iraq, the Middle East and Europe was intended for American people only (40 journalists will be accompanying him, as if he were already president : that is INCREDIBLE !) ; that he only wants to reassure voters who don’t trust him (polls showing that people do not think he would be a reliable commander-in-chief) ; etc…

I have not quite finished my job and will continue tonight and tomorrow. And then, I’ll wait… hoping to hear or read something in the next few days, hoping for an answer.
I’ll also try to speak on some French radios next week, in particular on Friday when BO is in Paris, just to remind people that …
HE IS NOT PRESIDENT OF THE USA YET !

#226 jane-pa on 07.19.08 at 2:37 pm

new Americapost is very important/ Over on First read they had Obama 08,012 and beyond. another time they said they may even have to change constituion. I think Hillary, Obama, Dean, Palosi and Brazile should all be sent this but not enmass than they wont read it.They cannt say they didnt know than and that might be put in there too. For your information. to keep you informed on that line/you think??

#231 RoseCityfriend on 07.19.08 at 2:43 pm

My opinion is like #206 ClintonRules — I’d rather flood Hillary’s email with messages that it’s important to her supporters that she NOT “negotiate” away her right to be nominated and voted on at the Convention. Because frankly, it’s not just about her, and it’s definitely not about loyalty to a party that wishes we were invisible — it’s about us, the people. And that’s why we’ve loved Hillary, because she fights for the people, whereas Obama makes it all about himself.

Speaking of being all about himself, the sad thing about the cartoon cover of The New Yorker is that it took the media’s attention away from Ryan Lizza’s story INSIDE the magazine, about how Obama’s career has ALWAYS been about himself. Shifting the focus was the precise reason why the Obama campaign complained so loudly about the cartoon on the cover. Sigh. In an age where liberals have loved “Doonesbury” and “SNL”, it’s scandalous that they fell for this ploy. I’m no Bush lover, but I remember when Bush Sr. just laughed off Dana Carvey’s of SNL’s making fun of him. That’s leadership in America. If Obama doesn’t want political cartoons to make fun of him, he should become leader of North Korea or Cuba or Iran instead. At least cartoons aren’t masquerading as “neutral” and “objective” news reporting. The mainstream media’s obvious negative bias is where Obama and his supporters were strangely silent on the trashing of Hillary Clinton…

#232 stoney42 on 07.19.08 at 2:43 pm

#233 Taffy on 07.19.08 at 2:43 pm

JMO…for the most part we are a group made up of people who for the first time are really involved in the election process. We are learning ass we go along. We are made up of decent people from all walks of life, all ages, races, religions, etc. Just normal everyday people trying to do something to get our country back on track. The problem is we are playing against a team of professionals who know how to get down and dirty. It’s something we don’t do for the most part in our lives. It’s like pitting Annie against Darth Vader. We really need some help from someone who understands how the Darth Vader type operates.

#234 cosmeta on 07.19.08 at 2:43 pm

#183 Taffy on 07.19.08 at 1:41 pm, WROTE,

[[ cosmeta … you’ve been on here since forever it seems like and I’ve never taken the time to say how much I enjoy your posts. Sorry about that. We have so many great writers and I hope to do a better job of acknowledging them from now on. I have said thank you to a few but for now, my hat’s off to you cosmeta!!!!]]

Thank you. But you know what… it is not neccessary to compliment me. By way of an explanation: I’ve always been a “loner” my whole life, and do not rely upon others to give me a boost or to tell me what my strenghts are. I know who and what I am, my strengths and my weaknesses. I’ve always been a non-conformist, yet at the same time a person of principle but in a conservative kind of way. Meaning, I do not necessarily follow the crowd, do not need to *belong* to a group, but am pretty much your average everyday, middle class person. So in that sense, I am conventional.

What I pride myself is having a great deal of what I would call, *wisdom* if that does not sound too egotistical; but I mean it in the sense of the common sense shared by all so in that sense, I belong to a larger group.

It is called humanity.

In spiritual terms we say,

WE who are the many, Are ONE,

And that my dear friend is what our democracy is based upon.

And so,
I call you friend.

#196 TrishfromCanada: I understand.

I won’t go into details, but I went up against a totally crooked system - because of a powerful man - on a real estate issue

No matter how many times he and his lawyers purgered themselves in the court room - the judge looked the other way - they were all political supporters of the judge.

Basically the strategy was to make me keep having to appeal his (bad) decisions in hopes that I would run out of money - and fight - and give up.

Now here is the BIG Point.

My frustrated lawyers told me this:

When the judge is sitting there comparing you and your political and financial power to theirs - you are completely expendable. He knows you can’t spend 12,000 to get to the appeals court and keep up with the “primary case” in his court for very long - everytime he makes a decision in their favor - no matter how wrong he is.

And that is what we are up against here.

Want to here the Bad News and then the Good News?

BAD NEWS: I had to settle for far, far less than I lost.

GOOD NEWS: I spent one month putting out flyers with bulleted points on my case and the judge’s decisions - which even lay people could see were wrong.

REALLY GOOD NEWS: That alleged “undefeatable” republican judge lost his re-election bid for the bench… much to everyone’s shock!

Don’t tell me that there are not consequences to failed democracy. I lost, but I won the damn war against ONE ARROGANT BASTARD!

It can be done! I believe in handing out “Flyers” to the regular guys and gals and begging them NOT to VOTE for a “crook”!

It works… it really does… they knew I was sincere and would not be out there doing it if something had not been really WRONG with that judge!

storyteller- It is interesting to watch BO’s body language. Whenever he comes on the TV, I mute the news segment and usually look away. But when you study the jaunty walk, the chin tilt, the pasted-on smile, or the quick shiver of his shoulders, it says a lot. I don’t play poker, but there’s always a “tell,” and I’ve seen quite a few from him.

————
I hope there were never Hillary supporters that spoke to the opponents’ supporters as these low-lifes do, but there may have been some. They are beyond despicable to harrass R. Liberman or Murphy, or anyone who has an opposing point of view. The fact that they are expending that much energy on PUMAs or others reveals the depth of their insecurity.

I’m doing well, a little bit unsettled today, I think my sugars are off, so I’m going for a bike ride in a bit, that’ll put them back in control. Otherwise, I’ll have to stay off the blog cause otherwise I tend to lose that filter that stops my fingers from typing what my brain is thinking lol… it’s not a pleasant site, I leave no prisoners!

How are you? oh yes, I sent you back an e-mail, wooohooo you are our 12th recruit for the database, Dragonfly joined us last night :) Thank you, Thank you. We’re doing great.

#246 Taffy on 07.19.08 at 2:50 pm

#247 ClintonRules on 07.19.08 at 2:51 pm

Good lord, i’m hyper.

so…much…energy…
need…something…to do…

I’m now taking requests for actions. Tell me what to do and I’ll…well…do it lol…

I think i’ve sent at least 10 letters to each SD

I’ve called the DNC more times than I’d care to admit…I really do have alot of free time

Flyers…I think the people in every store here refer to me as “the girl with the flyers” lol

I guess while I’m waiting for something else to do, I’ll check my Myspace and see what’s going on there. I may even invite a few *61 supporters to IM me and have a “friendly” chat about our views…so i’ll be back in about 2 minutes guys lol (the friendly chat never stays friendly for long)

#248 Lara08 on 07.19.08 at 2:51 pm

Hi all,
I guess we are going international. I read in NoQuarter that BO’s campaign was “hosting” all these journalists on his tour and that journalists complained that McCain had made it so “difficult” for them and that’s why they didn’t give him as much coverage. The person who wrote this article pointed out that a journalists job is to find and investigate stories, not be led to a story by politicians. As we all know, BO is fabricating an event for publicity. This isn’t real news. By the way, I apologize for not having the link to the article I just mentioned, but I will post it if I find it.

Also, maybe we should start writing newspapers in Europe in English even before BO gets there. Most journalists have to know English and if we send them a brief message and direct them to where they can find the hundreds of anti-BO sites (like http://www.nobamanetwork.com/ and justsaynodeal) they would quickly get the point that there is a lot of opposition against BO that isn’t reported by the U.S. MSM. I have time today, so I can help contact European papers.

Actually, I have to be out for a little while, but I’ll be back in a few hours. Let me know if you’d like to do this.

Best,
Lara08

Had to share this with you. I sent a friend of mine the Big Papa comments. His response to what Big Papa wrote cracked me up. My friend writes the following:

“Clearly this is a guy who is deeply angered by women who have patronizing him all his life with the phrases “size isn’t everything” and “It’s alright, I’m sure it’s just nerves, we can try again later.” He likely calls himself Big Papa because he looks like he’s primed to give birth to twins at any moment. He acts as if he thinks HE’s Obummer. Talk about delusional. Well, kool-aid chugging will do that.”

First Obama attack book in the works
__________________________________

“The same publisher that distributed the 2004 best-seller that took aim at John Kerry’s Vietnam service is planning a summer release of what’s scheduled to be the first critical book on Barack Obama.

Conservative journalist David Freddoso’s “The Case Against Barack Obama” will offer “a comprehensive, factual look at Obama,” according to Regnery Publishing president and publisher Marjory Ross.

But the book’s subtitle makes clear its perspective: “The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media’s Favorite Candidate.”

Ross contends that the mainstream media has offered insufficient scrutiny of Obama and likens the goal of Freddoso’s book to that of “Unfit for Command,” the scathing assessment of Kerry’s war record that rocketed to No. 1 on The New York Times best-seller list.”

Christina,

You’ve chosen only a single link in your efforts to break the chain of concerned citizens who are standing up for core principles of our democracy.

Using Darragh Murphy and the Pumas as a foil to make a name for yourself, is that it?

Why don’t you try standing up for what you believe - explaining it, defending it, fighting for it - rather than just trying to tear other people down for exercising their rights in our democracy?

You’re in way over your head.

I just posted this at the aol thread.
http://news.aol.com/political-machine/2008/07/18/has-puma-met-its-match/8#comment

I wonder if my figures are still current or if I should update it next time.

As to how many PUMAs there are. A recent poll of the real world outside the internet found 9 million Hillary supporters refusing to vote for Obama in November (up from 7 million in June).

When Justsaynodeal.com began its census of members of PUMA groups, they found over 2 million. Nobamanetwork is also attempting a list of all groups and a headcount.
I don’t know whether these include groups that have little web presence, such as Clinton Supporters Count Too. Groups like blog.pumapac.org keep count of how many letters to SDs, phone call,etc they generate each day or week, so that should give an indication.

Fundraising should give an indication too. See heidilipotpourri and thedenvergroup and blog.pumapac.org. Quite a few others are raising serious amounts too. (A fund drive of several organizations reportedly raised $10 million toward Hillary’s debt in about a week in early July. Taht would be in addition to funds for newspaper ads and website opeating expenses, trips to Denver, donations to friendly Congressmen, etc.)

#293 prowlland on 07.19.08 at 3:26 pm

Night of Terror

On November 15, 1917, the Warden of Occoquan Workhouse in Virginia ordered 40 of his guards on what is now known as the Night of Terror.

The women were innocent and defenseless. By the end of the night, they were also barely alive. Forty prison guards wielding clubs went on a rampage with their warden’s blessing against the 33 women wrongly convicted of “obstructing sidewalk traffic.” They beat Lucy Burn, chained her hands to the cell bars above her head and left her hanging for the night, bleeding and gasping for air. They hurled Dora Lewis into a dark cell, smashed her head against an iron bed and knocked her out cold. Her cellmate, Alice Cosu, thought Lewis was dead and suffered a heart attack. Additional affidavits describe the guards grabbing, dragging, beating, choking, slamming, pinching, twisting and kicking the women. (Why Women Vote )

The details of the Night of Terror were the last straw. Public outrage and opposition had been building as news leaked that there were hunger strikes and forced feedings, but everything boiled to a head after the Night of Terror. Everyone, from ordinary folks to politicians in Washington, began to talk about the women and their plight. Demands issued from many quarters that they be released, which they finally were, on November 27th and 28th of 1917, many after nearly half a year in prison.

In January of 1918, Woodrow Wilson announced his support of the Susan B. Anthony Amendment, and Congress voted on it soon thereafter, failing the 2/3 majority test by two votes. American women campaigned vigorously that election year to unseat anti-suffragist incumbents, and were successful. The amendment passed the following year, 1919, by a landslide, and began to make its way around the country to be ratified.

War of the Roses

By the summer of 1920, 35 states had ratified the 19th Amendment, and 36 were needed for it to become an official part of our founding document. It came down to Tennessee, and a War of Roses during the dog days of summer. Both pro- and anti-suffrage factions from across America made their way to Nashville to duke it out over votes in the Tennessee legislature. Members of the opposing factions and politicians wore yellow roses to show their support for suffrage, and red roses to show their opposition to suffrage.

On August 18th, amidst a sea of red and yellow roses, the roll call for votes went out, and came back 2 votes shy. Another roll call was made, and this time, Rep. Banks Turner crossed the line to the suffrage side. One vote shy. A third, and final roll call was made, and this time, a young man by the name of Harry Burn, wearing a red rose, crossed over to the suffragists side. Pandemonium ensued.

With his “yea,” Burn had delivered universal suffrage to all American women. The outraged opponents to the bill began chasing Representative Burn around the room. In order to escape the angry mob, Burn climbed out one of the third-floor windows of the Capitol. Making his way along a ledge, he was able to save himself by hiding in the Capitol attic.

When he was later questioned as to why he had voted for it, despite wearing a red rose, he explained that what people saw was the red rose on his jacket, but they didn’t see that in the pocket behind it was a telegraph from his mother in East Tennessee. It read:

Dear Son: Hurrah, and vote for suffrage! Don’t keep them in doubt. I noticed some of the speeches against. They were bitter. I have been watching to see how you stood, but have not noticed anything yet. Don’t forget to be a good boy and help Mrs. Catt [Carrie Chapman Catt] put the ‘rat’ in ratification. Signed, Your Mother.
~Febb Ensminger Burn

***

The 19th Amendment was certified as law by Wilson’s Secretary of State, Bainbridge Colby on August 26, 1920. Bainbridge Colby was a founding member of the United States Progressive Party.

The young women of today—free to study, to speak, to write, to choose their occupation —should remember that every inch of this freedom was bought for them at a great price… the debt that each generation owes to the past, it must pay to the future.
~ Abigail Scott Dunaway

Katrina #164 — hope you’re still here. I am sorry that my swearing offended you. Long time readers and members will know that swearing and crude language is just not my style. It is a cheap and unsubtle way to communicate, and I avoid that way of writing or speaking almost exclusively.

Anyone who spends a few minutes reading our site will know that we are a very large group of very diverse people who are motivated to action because of the shameful and inexcusable behavior of our party this year. Swearing, rudeness to others, and name-calling happens so extremely rarely that in over 54,000 comments, I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve had to remove comments because of language or content. In over 2,500 pages of comments — only a small handful. And 4 out of 5 of those comments were from trolls who snuck in.

So, I am sorry that you were turned off on your first visit — I truly am — because Maryland Puma is also a dear friend of mine (even though we’ve never met!) and I hate to think that a friend of hers is not a friend of ours.

That being said, I stand by my comment. The woman who started the hate site to which I referred is a creep who propagates lies and slander against my members, my family, my friends, and myself. She lies and encourages lies and hate for no reason other than that she doesn’t like what we stand for.

When she insults our members she is lying about people like Carole, Heather, Annette, and Jackson. People like Kathleen, Mary Jo, Jeremy, and Theresa.

These are good, kind, sincere, and helpful people. People who reach out to others and work every day to make our country and our party a better place. Several of them are very vulnerable, either because of lifestyle, personal experience, age, economic situation, or illness.

People like Christina are ATTACKING the VULNERABLE when they post sites like hers — when they allow comments like the one at the top of our page to appear under their auspices.

They are a menace and a disgrace to every hard working, brave, and active citizen in this country, and they deserve to be called what I called them.

Like I said, I am not a swearing or crude person. Neither is the Puma PAC blog. I hope you will visit us again or spend some more time getting to know us before you decide whether Puma PAC is right for you. I sincerely hope it is.

I think it would be a great idea to predcede BO on his tour with a few facts about him and his story. Could prompt them to do factual not puff pieces in the foreign press. Besides it could really tick his campaign off - an added benefit.

#298 Goalucard4Hill on 07.19.08 at 3:32 pm

Thank you Trish - you can send me more than that if you want - it won’t scare me off - and will be happy to help with the other portion that you mentioned -

I think someone posted on here - that it is not up to Dean or Pelosi regarding the roll call and placement on the ballot it is up to at LEAST 300 superdelegates to request it - when the campaign ended (this included those that switched over from her to him) she had 257 SD’s left - if ALL of them said yea to her - we would still need 43 more -

My suggestion is that we contact those that switched from her to him - think it was 28 - leaving us 15 left - I will have to look for it but someone else posted a website that showed those SD’s that endorsed him over her - even though she won their State (such as my Governor of Kentucky and W. Va) or their district - Sen Byrd of W.Va as well - so if we target that group first with a growl and swayed them to committ - who cares what Dean or Pelosi has to say - that is IF THE POSTER who said this knew what she/he was talking about. Anyone know how to find this out for sure - would give a direction for our SD letters -

[[ Okay I do not know how to cut and paste and do all that othe rcomputer stuff but someone sent this to me. ]]

Listen up…
And for any one who wants this info.
Cause it’s easy.

What you need to know is this: There is a small utility program inside of the Window’s directory (i.e. folder) called “Clipboard” and it is that little program that works on any program and is used everytime someone does a cut, copy, or paste.

That means that all programs, and yes, even when you cut, copy or paste one folder or file from Window’s Explorer. They all use the same Clipboard .EXE file to accomplish that task.

Look at your screen.
Look at any program.
Look up at your BROWSER.

See the main menu on top.

Look for the 2nd item, called, EDIT.

That is basically *all* you need to know.

Edit, Edit, Edit.

On any program.
Edit, Edit, Edit.

Scroll down that EDIT column or pull down window.

See,
Cut
Copy
Paste
Delete

Some are highligted while others are “dimmed” out. But once activated they will become functioning.

REMEMBER THIS IMPORTANT RULE:

Whatever you want to accomplish, whether it is to cut, copy, or paste, YOUR MOUSE POINTER MUST BE INSIDE THE PROGRAM BOX you are working on.—okay!

So let’s say you want to take something from Word or Notepad, or another website, for example; while inside of that software program, you either, SELECT ALL, or you run your mouse over the words or sentencs you want to copy to highlight them. Then, you *cycle* up the software program you want to paste it to, (like here), place your curser inside of that box, and click on the EDIT, PASTE.

Try it….

Cut, will delete from a program and is very rarely used, so just skip it for now, and work on these two:

Copy, will copy text and place it inside of clipboard.
Highlight, will capture the words you want to work with.
Paste, will drop it into the box your curser is on.

So basically, all you have to remember is this,

EDIT, COPY
EDIT, HIGHLIGHT
EDIT, PASTE

Note: once you run your mouse cursor over some words to highlight them, the words cut, copy, paste will loose their dimmed status and will appear and will now function.

USE YOUR BROWSER’s MAIN MENU on top.

Piece of cake.

Just riding riding your wave 4hillinca and mean no disrespect. But this is something many might want to try.

You can skip the Hillary nomination thing because we all know it isn’t going to happen.

take the mouse to the first word you want to copy….left click the mouse and drag over the words you want to high light….. when they are high lighted…then put your mouse over the highlighted words and then click your right mouse button…. a box will appear then says copy……then you go to where you want the copy to go…then left click and a box will appear…select paste.

#307 cosmeta on 07.19.08 at 3:45 pm

There are 3 new Republican oriented anti-obama ads out. One is about MO and is not overly effective, but the other two are pretty good because they show BHO’s weaknesses.

Somewhere in yesterday’s posts, it was asked if there was anyone from Michigan in pumapac. Can’t remember who. Anyway, I am from Michigan. I live in Grandville just outside of Grand Rapids.
There are so many posts just got to reading some of them. Most, if not all, of the Nobama posts are just personal attacks. I try not to read too many of them. I used to answer them. I never got anywhere so have stopped trying. Maybe when an article (with accompaning posts) is printed like that we should state what puma is instead of trying to have a dialogue with them and leave the site. Let them just talk to themselves. That way we have put our case out there and we are getting them upset because we refuse to give them a platform to sprew their lies. We are still telling everyone what puma is without alowing Nobamas to tell us their theories on what we are. Just a thought. Grandchildren are here, check back in later.

we have some VERY talented writers on here who could really present a case as to why this needs to go public. It wouldn’t take a whole puma growl to get the point across. I think tom abrahams is starting to see this and that is why he is giving us a lot of time.

#318 BigCatLover on 07.19.08 at 3:53 pm

Addition to cosmeta info on the clipboard where all the info goes until you complete your Edit action on it - you have to select the text to do something to it, then cut, copy, paste, etc will be in darker ink (enabled) and you can select it.

Excuse me Cosmeta if that was in your info too, I just didn’t see it.

Why he’s going to Afghanistan now? He was a subcommittee Chairman for Foreign Relation for over two years, he has NOT called a single hearing with NATO members fighting with our troops in Afghanistan. I am sick and tired of ABUSES committed by CORRUPT POLITICIANS like NOBAMA! People like Pelosi, Reid and other Democrats who SUPPORT this ABUSE OF POWER must be VOTED OUT of OFFICE!

THE VIEW
There seemed to be a hot-botton topic when Woopie used the “n” word. Her point was we are living in two different worlds, meaning I do suppose that it’s okay for a black person to use it but not for a white. This idealogy would seem to suggest that there are two sets of rules, one for black folk and one for white folk.

Now, in a way, I can understand wher Woopie is coming from… And I can also say I understand that within social groups or families we can take a so-called negative and run with it, or even make light of it. I mean, who in America has not be subject to some kind of divisiveness.

What I find it completely explainable as far as personal “experience(s)” go I do not think that derogatory words should be utilized by those in mass media, whether it is on TV, Cable, Satellite or radio, but only because it is the NAACP and other groups that have put a stop to its usage and condemned media for it; sometimes at the expense of firing people or suing media itself.

So Woopie… and Jessi…. you have every right to use it when talking to your family or friends, but you cannot undo what you did. If it is wrong for us, the ordinary citizen to use it becuase you have placed your guilt on us, then you shouldnt be allowed to use it either.

I am Italian-American and my social network has overcome ethnic slurs the same way ever other ethnic group has… We eventually reach a point of laughing at ourselves. But, no no no rants Rev Jeremiah Wright, the white folk are to blame for all of black society’s failings.

NOT, NOT SO!

Wake up and take responsibilty for your own lives.

And that goes for any social or ethnic group.

Cause in my day, we were taught this one basic guiding principle:

The whole idea of a family unit is to give your children everything you had and more; so that they can give to their children, and they to theirs. The whole idea is based upon the one basic principle of,

SELF-IMPROVEMENT

Because it is that, to which empowers.

Not blame…
Not lawsuits…
Not ousting people…
And NOT, segregation!

The Women Suffrage Movement would be proud of us today. Let us celebrate. We have put 18 million cracks in the glass ceiling. We have a lot of work still to do. We need to shatter the ultimate glass ceiling.

My login name is an abbreviation for:

At the time of the Arab aggression, the Berbers were ruled by a Queen of Jewish descent. Her name was Kahina (also spelt Cahina). Kahina’s name is also given variously as Dahiyah, Dahia, or Dhabba (Women in World History, v.8, p. 414.) The title Kahina meant Prophetess. The Encyclopedia Judaica (v. 10, p. 686) says that the term is derived from the old Hebrew “Kahin” (”soothsayer”) while some other sources say that “Kahina” was derived from the Hebrew root of the modern Jewish term “Cohen”.

__________________________________

In the 7th century, the Berbers lived in uneasy peace with the Byzantines, who ruled the coastal cities of North Africa, after defeating the Vandals a century before. The ancient city of Carthage was the Byzantine capital in Africa. Some Berbers were Christians (with a notable tendency towards heresy), some were Jewish, and some adhered to their ancient polytheist religion. Before the end of the century the region faced a new calamity, the traditional rivals of the Berbers, the Byzantines were defeated and driven from Africa by the Muslim Arab hordes who poured out of the Arabian Peninsula and flattened everything in their wake.

The Berbers were the ancient indigenous people of North Africa west of Egypt. They were made up of many tribes, but they managed to maintain their culture, their Hamitic languages, and considerable military power during successive invasions of their land. In ancient times, North Africa had been colonized by the Phoenicians (who became the Carthaginians), they were followed by the Romans, the Vandals (one of the Germanic tribes that destroyed the Roman Empire), the Byzantines, and finally the Arabs. Other foreigners, notably Greeks and Jews, also ruled parts of ancient North Africa at different times.

What I fail to understand is why the AA people don’t realize that Obama is using them. He is half Caucasian and move Arabic then he is AA, I think 1/16th which isn’t very much.

He would be the first Caucasian/Arab President not Afican American.

If you are still here, let me say that that outburst is certainly not typical of Murphy, but she has personally been attacked by the person she is addressing. She is the warmest, most patient person I’ve seen in a long, long time and that is why I am here. I, like Cosmeta said earlier, am a loner not a joiner, but I feel so outraged by Hillary Clinton’s treatment by her own party, I came back out of retirement from my politically active days to fight back. My experience with this group has been so positive and supportive that I am here for good. I fyou views are so opposed to ours that you can’t stay, I understand, but there is so much good information on this site, it might be worth your while to stay awhile. Besides we love MarylandPuma and would hate to hurt her.

Hi Pumas
interesting post from this morning battle on AOL political machine. Subject:” Has Puma met its match?”Many pumas including me went to war to respond to this article of Tommy Christopher (corny name) mentionning the coming of the anti puma Christina. Obviously they are monitoring our sites (they might learn something anyway) and it is a just wasteland journalism to give only one quote of Murphy where she is cursing Christina. So we posted some nice respectful answer and I was pleased to read this post which i don’t take as sacarstic.
From 1of18millions&notpuma “Gosh Pumas certainly are the most well mannered group I’ve ever seen. Please do go on, I am learning more and more about your PAC with every post ”
Sounds good does it.

Murphy-

So glad to see you on the blog today. Seems like without your positive influence some of us start heading into that black hole of depression…again. At least I did.

I have a few thoughts for future letters to the delegates.

When the database is finished, (I hope it is really soon, we are still working on it. Maybe we could concentrate on a few key states like Michigan and Florida first???)

I think we should address not only the issue of putting Hillary in nomination but also the travesty of the election for not only Fla and Michigan but the meaning of individual votes for our citizens and how having the election won by delegates will cause future democrats to think their votes are not important and will break down the democratic party in the future.

Maybe invite them to see the PUMA sites with links so they can see the PUMAs are not Republicans in sheep’s clothing. Maybe also mention the struggle of women and men in this country and how PUMA is an important part of this struggle. That even after Nov 5th, this group will continue to fight to give back elections to the voters.

I think giving them real information about us will work on their subconscious, letting them have time to think about the out come of this election and democracy based on their decision instead of voters.

I think just sending a ton of emails to let them know we are huge isn’t the only thing we should strive for, but that the outcome of the delegate vote will not only influence this election but future voting.

Please don’t ask me to write a draft of this, I suck at composing a decent letter and you and many PUMA are much better in this skill than I am.

3 cents worth. :-)

Long time ago… oh, maybe have the same mouse for about 6 years… was about to go out and buy a new one thinking mine was breaking, when my son says, “ma ma ma… did you ever bother to clean it.” How do I do that, I asked. He took out his pc non-magnetic screw driver, opened the lid, and showed me how to clean it using noting more than some rubbing alchohol, a Qtip, and a toothpick for gently scrapping off hard to get to wheels. That and this neat little aresol can called, Compressed Static Air Spray.

Happy Birthday Seneca Falls! 160th anniversary, what do we have to show in the advancement of women in this “so-called” modern society of ours? Very little. This primary have proven time and time again, the biggest hindrance for any woman to be President of USA are women themselves. The word “equal” between men and women is plain word, it doesn’t carry an ounce of weight; women are still treated a second class citizen in this country. We’ve all seen how the media full of men labeled Hillary all kinds of name that would make women of the past fighting for equality flinch. Women in this country are subjected to all kinds of insults; Hillary was called all kinds of names by NOBAMA supporters and NOBAMA himself flipped her off.

Different organizations like NAACP, ACLU address racial discrimination; they MISSED something very important, TREATMENT OF WOMEN in this country. The WOMEN of AMERICA comes in different colors, race and sizes; as long as WOMEN of AMERICA are not treated as EQUAL from workplace to politics, discrimination will NEVER end.

#162 jm1673 thanks for that site I was not surprised by Michele’s opinion she has no tact. I do hope Bill O’Reilly does unlease his fury on those media people following Nobama that is so horrible and oh so biased it is hard to believe.

good point, but what about posting an excerpt from the newspaper then linking the rest?

Thanks Billie Jo #342

Hi MP!

Folks — let me share this with you. I can’t give details, but our emails and calls last week have made an impact.

How do I know? I have received several outreaching emails in the last 24 hours from some power players who are supportive of us.

I know you trust me when I say that I cannot be public about this stuff. But I CAN say that our efforts are MAKING A DIFFERENCE. The Voice of the Voters is being heard.

Calling, emailing, and writing letters really DOES work. When a Super Delegate receives FIVE HUNDRED emails in ONE DAY from FIVE HUNDRED individual voters ALL ACROSS the COUNTRY, they KNOW that something is UP.

Let’s not fret. Let’s take a deep breath and pat ourselves on the back. Let’s reach out to neighbors and friends and tell them how downright FUN it is to be an active American citizen. It’s free, simple, and invigorating. Especially when we have this forum to come back and share, inform, and BRAG to each other.

Being all in this together is a lot more fun than being outside alone.

#360 zephyr on 07.19.08 at 4:28 pm

#315 Murphy…good luck on the radio program tonight. I wil try to call in. Did you see the post from yesterday about the PUMA conference in DC for Aug. 8-10th? Remember to announce that if you can.

I have a motto…don’t give energy to something that you don’t want to be enlarged. I just brush off negative comments that I have come across on the blogs. I figure those people/souls are incurrring lots of negative karma and I wouldn’t want to deal with what they will have to whenever the scales get balanced.

Of course, severe threats need to be dealt with by reporting them to authorities. What ever happened to
to respect and human decency with these people. Seems to be a character flaw developing in the society.

#361 bmw60 on 07.19.08 at 4:28 pm

omg… just read that mans comments after the …. sheesh read them earlier when Murphy put them online, but…… How disgusting … If these are his followers… we must stop HIM!!!

#362 texassherry on 07.19.08 at 4:29 pm

#358 TrishfromCanada,

There was no link. I actually retyped the whole thing from a local newspaper.

#363 mzebest on 07.19.08 at 4:29 pm

164 Katrina

Just wanted to say that Murphy’s comment cracked me up. I wasn’t offended at all and merely took it as letting off some well deserved steam.

293 Asian4Hillary

I agree with Asian4Hillary that sometimes PC can be taken too far. There’s without a doubt a time and place for it… but as a country… we do need to lighten up just a tad and give some slack for those (such as Murphy) who must have to deal with an awful lot of awful stuff from the Obamatrons.

#364 bmw60 on 07.19.08 at 4:30 pm

How exciting Murphy…. thank you so much… I am so glad I read that about our effect with emails… and phone calls!!!!

#365 Maryland PUMA on 07.19.08 at 4:30 pm

Katrina is not a troll, pumas, she is one of my best friends.

I had held back from discussing politics with her due to a discussion we had had late last year.

I found myself in a discussion with her again this past week and she had some good questions that I thought the PRIDE would be better able to answer since we’re spread out in our specialties. So I invited her in!

In defense of Murphy, I was quite shocked to see that coming from her, although it’s mild considering the vicious stuff we get from trolls and O supporters. She never talks like that - and is vigilant on the board about anything that could be construed as the very things we fight.

For the record, the “Christina” that Murphy was speaking of is the one who published Murphy’s home address on the internet - and with the death threats and sexual violence threats Murphy’s received lately, I can’t say I blame her for being VERY angry.

#366 mzebest on 07.19.08 at 4:31 pm

#368 Pookie on 07.19.08 at 4:34 pm

Murphy I am sure you must get so ‘discouraged’ doing so much for Hillary and then you have death threats, unfounded criticism, and you have to weigh every word that come’s out of your mouth for fear you will ‘offend’ only to have Bill and Hillary say they support Nobama and Bill say’s he thinks Bo is the best person to bring about change. I admire you and I think you are a strong , moral person and all the true puma’s have your back. I say to the people who condemn you tish! tish! on them

#369 Maryland PUMA on 07.19.08 at 4:34 pm

#370 texassherry on 07.19.08 at 4:34 pm

#358 TrishfromCanada,

I do agree with you that if there is a link then we should use it. I just didn’t know how else to share the local newspaper article, but maybe once the action center is back up we can have a section for that sort of thing.

#371 pa dem on 07.19.08 at 4:35 pm

MP: Maybe you would like to talk to her and explain? I think she came in the middle of the discussion and didn’t know why the anger was there.

#381 bmw60 on 07.19.08 at 4:37 pm

#347… LADYHAWKE… I am going to send them all this letter from a disinfranchised Michigan voter… reminding them we are all Americans UNITED!!! I know I have posted this before, but feel it is appropriate in this instance:

by: 1 black Detroit mom aka vote theft victim #3
Sunday April 28th 2008 the Rev. Jeremiah Wright came to Detroit Michigan to address the Michigan NAACP. He gave a sermon with a very focused message, vote Barack Obama and I am not a racist. Well after listening to his sermon and taking time to absorb his oration, I am astounded at just how insulated Rev. Wright must be, ethnically, socially and culturally or is that just what he aspires for his followers?

Apparently the esteemed Rev. Wright has missed a large part of the world I live in. The world I live in is full of color and individual variances, we have blue, green, pink, red and any other color of hair we have people with a lot of cranial accessories (facial jewelry), we have heterosexuals working alongside homosexuals that do not experience discrimination and vice versa, we have white and black and brown and any color you can image that attend church together, work together, we live along side each other, we travel together, our children go to school together, we are involved in our community together, we dine together, we walk through the same doors, we drink from the same fountains. America has been changing, apparently Rev. Wright has not rather it would seem he has hidden from progress.

Rev. Wright was correct about one thing, “different is not defective”. Guess what Rev. Wright. Most of America already knows that and lives it everyday. Although it appears the esteemed Rev. Wright has segregated himself and his community to the point that this concept is new to him. I am going to go Rev. Wright one better, different is not defective different is delightful. Rev. Wright different is beautiful, colorful, and interesting and in this day and age it is not discouraged it is encouraged.

Despite his constant subliminal Vote for Barack Obama “Change is coming” messages, it was apparent rather than seeking unity and progress he was using the art of phraseology and the beautiful spirit filled exuberance of the black church to put emphasis on his underlying message of separatism.

My roots are not in Africa, my ancestors were, my neighbors roots are not in Europe, their ancestors where, my roots are in America. I am a person of color, but I am a American I am not an African and make no mistake my loyalties lie with America Rev. Wright. I do not wish to separate myself nor my family from America I do not wish to see a black America and white America and yellow America and brown America.

Rev. Wright I grew up on welfare in “the projects”. I am now a college graduate a wife and mother of 2 children. I will not teach my children to look for injustices because if they cant make it in this world and rise above the unfairness we all experience in life it is their own deficiencies not societies. If you teach children to look for injustices they will always find them and they will always see others of another color as out to hold them down, with an attitude like that they will never find successes.

I do not now nor have I ever nor will I ever tolerate Ebonics in my household, while we do not speak the English of England or Europe we do speak, in this house, the English of America, because Rev. Wright we are American’s in this house. I am personally sick and tired of hearing all about the mother land Africa, yes our history is beautiful and colorful and sad and frightening and bright and vibrant but my mother land is America my ancestors mother land was Africa. I will tell you what apparently other blacks don’t want to tell you or are afraid to tell you, if you feel so strongly that big bad whitey is out to get you and the mother land Africa needs so much help then you should leave you mansion in Illinois and go to Africa and do your nasty separatist work there.

#382 Taffy on 07.19.08 at 4:38 pm

Just a thought… bill Nelson is working on that new bill for election reform. Would it be such a bad idea to offer to help him spread the word after the Dem convention is over? We would need to read up on it and see if there are things we don’t agree with, but we do all agree the system has to be changed. We are organized, he has the ability to sponsor bills. Seems like a match to me! :D

Thank you.

#386 antifish on 07.19.08 at 4:40 pm

Maryland,

Your friend, Katrina, upset me because she obviously has a double standard. She is all upset about what Murphy wrote this morning, but she seems to have found a new home over on Christina’s site and found no offense in this post. She made no mention of it despite it being just two posts above her own.

_____________________________________________
Murphy is in a snit because she’s been exposed as a GOP ratfucker.

I think it’s as simple as that. Sure, there are “real” PUMAs out there, like these NINE losers who showed up for a San Francisco PUMA rally.

But that’s a classic ratfuckery tactic: The Repubs latch on to a small but disgruntled group and blow it up out of all proportion to its numbers to sew discord. Their media arm, FOX News, is of course willing to help.

_____________________________________________

Murphy,

Feel free to remove my comment at #333. It was reposted at Christina’s site within minutes.

I don’t wish to offend anyone, but I’m sick of the feigned outbreaks of outrage when, once in a while, someone expresses their true emotions. Considering what we’re up against, I think we usually show a lot of restraint.

#370 texassherry

It’s ok Sherry I was not referring to any one person, I should have sent it to Murphy and Maryland in private as a suggestion. My reason for suggesting it though is that I often read the blog from work, and if they are really long I have to skip over them due to time constraints.

most of the really long ones can be shortened but really this is just my opinion, I’m sure others will differ with me.

#390 slyt2 on 07.19.08 at 4:43 pm

#390 TrishfromCanada ,

I didn’t think you were pinpointing me and I really do agree with you. It is hard sometimes to keep of with posts when they are so long.

I actually answered myself in the above posts. In the future if I don’t have a link and have to type the whole article I will send it to Murphy and ask her to put it in the action center. Actually I think having a section in the action center for just news is a great idea. Then everyone could go there when they have time and read up on everything.

Murhy,

Is that okay with you?

122 Hillgirl,

“Red States in play. Senator Obama said last year he would boost black turnout in November, putting in play Southern states that normally vote reliably Republican, including Georgia and Virginia.

More recently, he told reporters on his campaign plane that those states are in play. He’s apparently correct in his assessment of his chances in Virginia, but he appears to be dead wrong about Georgia. ”
http://www.usnews.com/blogs/erbe/2008/7/18/anti-obama-democrats-pelosis-bush-blast-and-red-states-in-play.html?msg=1

Thanks for the link… but did you know that one of the ways he is attempting to increase the black vote is to go into the jails to get new sign-ups for those who have not been convicted yet.

Some nice guy this Obamination dude.

Since you and LilyMaid will not be going to Denver in August, I’d like to make a gift of one each of you. The one for you is a belated birthday gift.

Now, we just have to figure out how to get them to each of you. Begin brainstorming.

#383 Taffy….I think that is a great idea!!!

” bill Nelson is working on that new bill for election reform. Would it be such a bad idea to offer to help him spread the word after the Dem convention is over”

Think as a group we need to be looking for purpose beyond the convention.

#404 scathcart on 07.19.08 at 4:50 pm

Yes Murphy, that is really great news. I will sure keep up my part in spreading the word and anything else I am asked to do. Maryland puma, I hope you are feeling better but with that heat I know how miserable you are. Please be careful in that heat.

I would also like to see some shorter posts with the articles but I think it’s important to post the link and a little blurb of what it’s about on this page so PUMAs don’t have to go out of the posts to action center to read the links. It’s difficult enough posting and going back to where you left off.

1 cent. :-)

[[ #110 murphy… You cannot imagine the news coverage here the other day over one of our council members making a policy issue related comment about it: “‘Falling into a black hole”

One black council member went ballistic - called it a racially insensitive statement (complained that we say “black light is bad - white light is good”, etc., etc., etc.) ]]

I saw that one on tv…

Pretty soon if this crapola continues they will have to elliminate the word black-list from our spam filters. We will only be allowed to use a white-list.

Thanks for your note.

Top Dem Party Officials Send Sharply-Worded Email Demanding That Hillary Donors And Supporters Get Behind Obama
By Greg Sargent - July 19, 2008, 12:20PM
In a sign that senior Democratic officials remain deeply concerned that post-primary bitterness could imperil Barack Obama’s chances, two top Democratic officials have emailed a sharply-worded letter to major donors and other leading Dems confessing “fatigue and irritation” at those withholding full support from Obama and demanding that they get behind him “without conditions or demands.”

Also… I don’t know if anyone has been watching FOX this afternoon… but they keep airing a story about these women (in Afghanistan) that were abducted by the Taliban and put into a truck and taken to a remote area where they pulled them out into the field and then executed them. A reporter who was with them, pleaded with them not to execute them. They refused. The reporter asked if he could film, they refused… but it was too late… the reporter already had his camera rolling unbeknownst to the Taliban. Fox showed the images.

I mention this story because on the same day… I see an article in MSM about Obama’s visit to Afghnaistan. I don’t see any mention of these events in his world experiences. I did see a report on FOX of him shooting a few hoops with the troops.

#423 hillstheone on 07.19.08 at 5:01 pm

go anderson / rosecity friend:

WOW! Thanks for posting that. Yes, I’ve believed all along Hillary does not want us to do anything that might embarrass her. Contacting the Superdels should continue to be our #1 priority. Media second, but a close second.

If we could just figure out a way to get this entire movement into an AP (Associated Press) story, that would be the start of huge progress w/msm…

I’ve been busy making my killer margarita recipe and whipping up some super fattening desserts for our shindig tonight. We are celebrating the Seneca Falls Anniversary, and I am so looking forward to meeting fellow pumas goanderson and billiejo. Lifesize Hillary is going to knock their socks off.

__________________________
Dear Democratic Friends:

2008 is a Democratic year-at all levels in all the states. The opportunity is ours. We just have to seize it.

We experienced an exciting, intense, sometimes difficult, campaign to nominate our presidential candidate. Now it’s over. Barack Obama won.

I supported Hillary Clinton and am proud and pleased that I did. But she lost. Barack Obama won. It’s over.

It is time for all Democrats, supporters of Senator Clinton and all other contenders for the nomination, to stand with him to secure his election and the election of Democrats at all levels of competition.

I must confess a bit of fatigue and irritation with people who continue to carp, complain, and criticize the results of the primary and lay down conditions for their support. The Los Angeles Lakers didn’t establish conditions to recognize the Boston Celtics as NBA Champions; Roger Federer did not demand concessions before recognizing that Rafael Nadal defeated him at Wimbledon.

It is time to act in a mature and resourceful fashion. It’s time to put the primaries behind us. It’s time to support Barack Obama without conditions or demands.

It’s time to WIN for Barack Obama, the Democratic Party, America, and our future. We have an unparalleled opportunity. I hope we will all do everything we can to seize the moment.

See you at the Inauguration.

Sincerely,

Don Fowler
DNC Member At-Large, South Carolina
Former Chair of the Democratic National Committee

Alice Germond
Secretary, Democratic National Committee

[[ Hello to my fellow PUMAS.. I got four e-mails today that I do not understand. They all say the same thing, but with different names.

“This is a warning message only. Delivery to following recipients has been delayed.

What’s up with that??
]]

Some email servers will put things in a holding bin while they are being scanned for virus. Plus, sometimes mail gets delayed because someone email box is full… and with that some email servers will try again.

I’ve already gotten in prompts that say, undeliveable but will try for 3 days, etc.

it help but I am still researching for CNN and their almost 100% pro-Ob political team.All of them are OP-ED journalists /analysts. CNN is pretty far leftist on many issues and their executives must be as well “red millionnaires” I think medias are just corrupt and high on rating. They just keep making romance stories to keep their 24/7 spin cycles.

Achieving our goals is more important than whatever it is you think you’re defending.

What’s wrong with you?

Hasn’t this whole exercise revealed that these messages are being monitored and that the jackals who are doing the monitoring are using ad hominem attacks against us, as people, in an effort to discredit our arguments.

You might want to develop a thicker skin - and learn who your true friends are - if you want to be part of a political action committee.

To paraphrase Hillary Clinton:

I’m your friend. You’ll have to ask Katrina about what she is to you.

#304 cosmeta on Bo’s trip with our tax dollars.
I was also thinking about how he is likely using this more for tying in with his ‘presumptive’ nomination. If attempting to appear as going as a senator, along with his inability to speak without a teleprompter, one can only hope he gaffes and makes a closer more obvious connection to his campaign. I hope some news watchdogs will pay close attention. I am sure us PUMAs will.

What a load of crock from those 2, comparing this election process to the outcome of a tennis match and basketball game. Both of those fools should be ashamed of themselves.

#452 IndyPUMA on 07.19.08 at 5:17 pm

You all need to stop paying attention to trolls and trolls sites. Period.

Be adults and grown ups and ignore them.

I believe that this site shouldn’t be used as a ‘hangout’. There are plenty of other sites that you can just simply socialize and whatnot. Come here to post articles that you find, discuss action plans and stuff of that sort.

The sensitivity of everyone is not helping.

I don’t know if this is possible but if a post needs to be moderated and the author scolded, can’t it be done behind the scenes? If someone says something stupid, can’t we delete it and then a moderator, diplomatically, let’s that individual why and to repeat that that crap won’t be tolerated here.

I’m tired of coming here and people are bickering. Doesn’t make any sense.

We have a lot of hard work. Stay focused and email the moderators when you have an issue. It’s ridiculous to have cat fights here on the blog.

Now, has anyone looked at McCain’s press packet for the Euro BO trip? It’s may be useful especially in swing states.

Pending the Convention results, we should also keep in mind that afterwards, we’ll need to keep the redstates red, swing the swingstates and try to convert some others like NJ. (Imagine if NY AND MA went McCain).

#453 greenfun on 07.19.08 at 5:17 pm

goanderson-that is terrible news. If you made it, I was going to send Hillary home with you as I know how much you covet her. Oh well, we will knock one back for you, and maybe catch up with you in Denver.

NotFallinginLine

You stepped over the line of decency. Just because she and I do not agree on this subject does not make her any less of a friend to me. We have been friends since our children were two - and they are best friends.

One of the things she was disgusted with on this site was the name calling - and you just blew my defense right out the GD window.

She has a right to her opinion. I respect that and I respect her.

How dare you threaten my involvement in this PAC. I respect each and every one of my ‘friends’ on this site until they attack someone I love and that is where I draw the line.

I’m telling you - BACK OFF.

#457 hillstheone on 07.19.08 at 5:18 pm

TOPIC: And speaking of CNN…

Veritas, there’s a story up on Anderson Cooper’s site today about Michelle Obama.
http://ac360.blogs.cnn.com/2008/07/17/michelle-obama-armed-and-dangerous/

I really liked this comment made by a poster from Los Angeles:

The suggestion that how Michelle Obama is perceived within society is based upon race and gender is extremely troubling.

I would suggest that Michelle Obama’s actions, positions and delivery have more to do with how she is viewed than her skin color or gender.

Although your statistics about African American women may be accurate, they certainly do not pertain to Ms. Obama.

Ms. Obama was educated at Princeton and Harvard; she may have received scholarships and financial aid; she may have been given business opportunities others would die for; for someone who has been afforded many breaks, she comes off as a bit thankless.
Michelle Obama and her husband worshiped for twenty years with a separatist and racist; one could ask if the Obama’s are able to accept all people equally.
With her husband’s book advances and Tony Rezko’s assistance, the Obama’s were able to buy a million dollar plus home.

Add in the $8K monthly retainer the Obama’s received from a Chicago entrepreneur who Obama eventually paid back with $300K in Chicago tourism board money and Michelle Obama should be one of our nation’s happiest citizens.

~ ~ ~

Hey we need to recruit some of these bloggers off of CNN’s website, ha-ha!

#458 greenfun on 07.19.08 at 5:18 pm

#459 Maryland PUMA on 07.19.08 at 5:19 pm

Incidentally, I do have to make the comment that if piece of shit is bad, what does that make ratfucker?

Murphy is in a snit because she’s been exposed as a GOP ratfucker.

I think it’s as simple as that. Sure, there are “real” PUMAs out there, like these NINE losers who showed up for a San Francisco PUMA rally.

But that’s a classic ratfuckery tactic: The Repubs latch on to a small but disgruntled group and blow it up out of all proportion to its numbers to sew discord. Their media arm, FOX News, is of course willing to help.

I mean, if there were literally millions of PUMAs as the group claims, wouldn’t they be able to muster more than NINE people at a protest in San Francisco? (Hell, I bet I could get more than 9 people to show up to protest an alleged plot by cabal of gerbils from Pluto to take over the DNC.) Wouldn’t Obama be dogged at every campaign stop by thousands of roaring PUMAs?

But that’s not happening. Some money is coming in and there’s some organization behind the scenes. The GOP is good at accomplishing that. The “real” PUMAs are their unwitting dupes.

I’m glad you’re telling the truth about them, though I doubt they’ll listen.

Oh yeah… that was the First and Last time I ever listened to her. Not only was that comment uncalled for, it was utterly elistist and rude and showed just how vicious she can be. When I saw that aired on national tv, was when I decided against BHO. This woman, is no lady and does not belong in the White House… no way, no how… A short time ago, when he erected that fightsmears web site, all of a sudden her husband wants to protect her by saying he is for women’s rights.

It’s all BS and propoganda.

Or antsy. yes, I don’t really like making travel arrangements at the last minute but maybe we’ll have to be patient / flexible a while longer.

Originally I was going to fly, but decided it would be easier to connect w/other PUMA’s on a bus.

#471 BillieJo on 07.19.08 at 5:25 pm

Here’s another 1 cent from me. :-)

Seems like most of the conflict on this site stem from dealing with *61 supporters on other sites. I don’t have the emotional strength to deal with them and keep it together here, so might want to rethink the value of doing the individual battles outside and causing yourself more stress. Has anyone at all changed a *61 supporter on those sites? If not, is it worth it? PUMA may have bigger fish to fry?

Maryland PUMA ~

What we’re doing isn’t personal, it’s political. I’m sorry, but I couldn’t care if you and she were born in the same room at the same time.

Speaking to the very people who have made it their mission to attack you all personally, your friend Katrina called Pumas “cowards” in her 3:28 comment.

Shannon, please, if we can’t work together despite our personal differences, then this is all going to be for nothing.

Murphy in and out but trying to keep up. I doubt anyone who knows how much you do and how can only begin to image how much undeserving flack you get from Obama supporters - would ever blame you for your reaction today. You are a God Sent to this movement and you will be in the history (umm.. I mean Herstory) books for years to come.

I am so glad what we do is being noticed. Pumas are behind you We are not racist or Republican and we will fight them with truth and use their own deceit, inconsistencies and fantasies against them.

#159 texassherry on 07.19.08 at 1:12 pm Sorry that link did not show anyone close. You can put your name in for being interested in one starting. Hopefully others will see yours and also join and together can start a meetup.

#360 murphy on 07.19.08 at 4:28 pm Thanks Murphy for sharing that. When I worked for government, the rule of thumb was if you got a letter there were at least 100 more people that did not take the time to write. Did not matter if all said the same thing or names on a petition. Made them rethink their position.

Keep up the great work PUMAS!

It’s cool. I just feel like we have cyber power on our side which means we can stop, step away and reflect before posting. (Much tougher in person, imho).

I think that we should all vow to be a bit more diplomatic… at all cost. We PUMAs are representatives of our movement. All our words and actions will be used against us.

Diplomacy, folks…. diplomacy.

Now… I have an issue.

Can we have a one-stop schedule of all these blogtalk shows popping up? It’s tough to keep track. :)

#485 Susie1945 on 07.19.08 at 5:33 pm

Ya know if it wasn’t such a pain in the A$$ to have to register & log in on all those stupid sites - I’d like to ask this? Why the hell are they (the DNC) & others telling us Hillary supporters we need to come to the party - they kicked us out, said they didn’t need us and now they’re pissmoaning & carrying on about fatigue and get over it Hillary lost so boo hoo - screw ‘em - don’t they even know their own rules of the DNC - precious is NOT the nominee - he doesn’t have enough pledged delegates - can’t they count - I know *61 ’s supporters have trouble with English but I guess they have problems with math too - superdelegate endorsements don’t mean a thing - they don’t vote on the first ballot - unless howie is planning to change those rules too & they have the nerve to call themselves Democrats - phooey - more like freaking dictators - *61’s supporters are using all kinds of intimidation against Hillary supporters - particularly blacks - the DNC is using the same kind of tactics against the SD’s - well, here’s hoping that the SDs find their spines, their balls, and their lost ability to stand up and vote as the majority Democratic constituency voted & elect Hillary as the nominee at the convention

- I don’t wanna hear any any more crap from blacks & other *61 supporters about an uprising either (saw this on about 4 different sites - probably the same poster with diff name, don’t care- tired of hearing it), this isn’t some third world country where you can do whatever you want - if you don’t like it here and don’t wanna play by the rules of a democracy then go find yourself someplace where you can & good luck with that - btw - don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out……

#486 Lin4Hill on 07.19.08 at 5:34 pm

Murphy, that “news” is very enticing–can’t you give us a hint, pretty please?
Okay, well it is fabulous to know that someone is shaken and stirred enough to be listening to our efforts. And folks, don’t take the South for granted…BO has big plans down here. The SuperD’s down here need a heads up as well.

Delphine–as I write this it’s about 11:30 PM over in Lyons, so you may already be offline. Can you recommend some news outlets/news websites that would be worthy of our intentions to spread the real truth about BO?

If you’re already gone, bon nuit…

#487 IndyPUMA on 07.19.08 at 5:34 pm

Also, some of you brave souls. Don’t forget about Craigslist.org for making arrangements for travel and meeting up. Don’t forget to browse MeetUp.com to see if other PUMAs are meeting together.

#488 Lara08 on 07.19.08 at 5:35 pm

Hi again,
A few of you said you would like to start writing European papers, so I found this website that edits down our list of papers to a select few: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~wessweb/news.html

Now, what countries will BO visit and when? I really don’t want to visit the BO site, so if you already have a link to this info please help me out and post it here. But, if I have to I’ll visit the site.

DelphinefromFrance, if you have e-mails to the French papers you’ve contacted please post those. We should help you contact these people. By the way, thanks for all the work you are doing!

I don’t think we should be timid (maybe not the right word) about contacting Euro papers. Europe seems much smaller and approachable when you are there. As you might imagine they are not bombarded by news from the U.S., so they couldn’t possibly know what is going on with BO’s candidacy. We can start sending them information.

Maybe contacting Euro news media could be a daily prowl.

Be back soon with more info,
Lara08

#489 veritas09 on 07.19.08 at 5:35 pm

I personnally could not care less iF Murphy was a republican. I doubt that she is. Giving to the cancer society does not make you a cancer patient.
But if we have to be “manipulated” if it is the new theme by some hidden republican operative and that we are just your usual dupes, well at last that would be quite a con job. So let me recap. fake democrat speaks to the heart of real democrats , republican machine converts millions of Hillary “s supporters to vote MCCain by using decoy puma site to lure candid, stupid, sincere bunch of dupes.

http://blog.pumapac.org/puma-pac-action-center/

SO, take a deep breath folks.

We are strong and united and secure.

Dont listen to doubters or haters or creeps. Listen to what your head and your heart has been telling you for the last 6months.

those antipuma sites are TOXIC. They will make you sick. They are not a balanced alternative view to ours. They are hateful and divisive sites, pure and simple.

There are plenty of places to read and learn about the opposing view, where slander and violent rhetoric is not the norm — such as Atrios, TPM sometimes, Taylor Marsh, and others. I’m just saying — it’s a big internet out there. Why waste your time in the swamps?

I’m probably going to regret getting in the middle of this, but your friend sounds dogmatic and seems to have been looking for a reason not to like our site. In other words, she sounds like the problem. Set a line in the sand and ask her not to step over it. Before you get mad at me please read my post at #336.

Great idea.

I think the McCain camp probably sent their Media Packet to news organizations in Europe, but not sure. I think that may be one of the items to be sent to those outlets.

http://onechicken.com/PUMA/TM-LINKS.txt

You can cut and past some of these links from Taylor during the primaries that are just the tip of th iceberg wrt BO and why he’s not suitable to be POTUS.

Many of the Euro blogs and news sites have comment sections just like this, so cutting and pasting what I linked to will start raising doubts.

If he wants to campaign on our tax dollars, then we’ll do what we can to help their media keeping him honest (yeah right lol)

RE KATRINA

It’s possible that a freakazoid lurker used Katrina’s name, and pasted text from here to the other site… you know, a slimebuckets ways of dividing and conquering.

For my money, I would rather not have to read pasted comments from obot sites… there’s a reason I don’t frequent them.

You gotta love this!

http://rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/election_20082/2008_presidential_election/obama_leads_bush_by_twenty_but_clinton_does_better_against_mccain

“However, McCain fares better against Obama than he does against two other prominent Democrats. [b]New York Senator Hillary Clinton leads McCain by eight points, 50% to 42%.[/b] Former Vice President Al Gore, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2000, leads McCain 50% to 43%.

These numbers help explain why Election 2008 is competitive even though events so heavily favor the Democrats — because the Republicans are on course to nominate their strongest possible general election candidate but the Democrats are not. Perhaps even more importantly, the data suggests that voters don’t see a potential McCain Administration as the third term of President Bush.

In all five hypothetical match-ups featured in this article, the Democrat leads the Republican among unaffiliated voters. In the match-up between the two presumptive nominees, McCain holds a slight edge over Obama among those voters. “

Maryland PUMA,
I will take your formal apology whenever you are ready to admit that you wrongfully blamed me. While I wont be holding my breath, I look forward to the day when you can admit to being wrong. I already forgive you, and don’t judge you.. so don’t worry about any kind of turmoil.
Sincerely,

A thought on the DNC losing it over people not uniting, well I love it! They didn’t believe you would keep your word and not support Bo, they didn’t believe you would stand your ground, they thought it would just take a little time to mend fences, yet they did nothing to win the 18 million voters back, not even an apology for how Hillary and her supporters were treated.

They know now they’re not getting the numbers they need and I’m laughing my a$$ off. But mostly I’m very proud of every person who is fighting in one way or another to be treated with respect and dignity by those who claim to want what is best for America.

Stand tall and proudly shout “My vote will make a difference”

We have to choose our battles, PUMAs. Wasting energy on pigs may be sport–cats do like to play with their prey before they kill, but….what is that passage ?? “Do not cast pearls before swine.” Some are simply not worth your intelligence.

A professor once cautioned me in my one of my teacher courses, “If you argue with the kids, you’ve gone down to their level. You become like two pigs in the mudpen.”

We have a mission. We are noticed. They are fighting us. That’s a good thing.

#514 Bill-K on 07.19.08 at 6:01 pm

Thanks to Murphy for acting so fast on the action center. I just made sure we had everything so Murphy could get the center going again. I feel the action center is critical to our mission and making sure we keep focused on the goals of PUMA PAC. That being in part getting Hillary nominated.

Time is very short we have about 5 weeks till the convention and every person and every minute is critical. Writing to super delegates and the media is a critical part of the mission as well getting more people to join PUMA PAC through the use of the flyers and other action items. Personally I try to avoid things that take away from the above goals as my time is so limited. In either case I am glad I could help Murphy and all the PUMA’s out in some way.

#522 NoMoreInFL on 07.19.08 at 6:08 pm

MarylandPUMA, in taking a step back and acting as if today was my first time on; I can see where Katrina may have been offended. You hear all these wonderful things about PUMAS but we have been here through the thick and thin. We know who is who and why they say what they do but someone new does not.

I apologize that I did not write earlier and say something to her. As you know MarylandPUMA, we all have the same vision and heart. We all recognize something very wrong happened in the primaries and it needs to be corrected.

We are united as PUMAS to see Democracy returned to our great nation and the wrongs righted. Together we have accomplished much and will continue to do so.

Along the way, we will have disagreements with family and friends but as you and I know MarylandPUMA, our friends will always be our friends and our family will always be our family.

Today, my son who is a strong union Democrat starting to talk voting Democrat no matter what…I looked at him, smiled and said, “Here let me carry that out for you.” No good would of come out of trying to debate one when God has not opened their ears and eyes yet.

At the end of the day, we hugged and said “I love you” and I sent up my prayers for him and others that believe the same to hear and see the truth. I know God answers prayers. Look at all of us united. Did we not ask, “Where are others that believe like me and together we can make a difference?”

Love to all PUMAS!! Murphy, maybe it is time to replay the video on what Hillary endured to remind us to stay focused as a new week starts with New Growls. Thank you for getting the action center back up and running! See how we work together! :)

MarylandPUMA give her a PUMA hug from all of us! :)

A perception of Puma from an unexpected source:

I thought this was an interesting comment posted on Tom Abrahams’ article “P.U.M.A. Passion” yesterday and I hope it won’t offend anyone by reposting it here.
http://thevote.abc13.com/2008/07/puma-passion.html#comment-122905746

From Obama’s site blog July 15th
By Jeffrey from Highland, CA 29 minutes ago
In case you missed it…
I decided to open an account with PUMA to see if what everyone was saying about them was true. I signed in as a Hillary supporter and made some probing remarks. The PUMA People were supportive of not using any racial comments and seemed fair about being unfairly critical of Obama. There were viewpoints I disagreed with, but nothing on the deep end. I did not stay too long before going to bed.
When I woke up the next day, they had tracked down my dashboard and left a message on one of my blogs to say that I had been “PUMA Pounced” - appearantly, they used my email address to track down my info here and then trash me on their page. They thought I was a paid Obama operative, because my name had 233 at the end (which is a classroom number I once taught in) They made the normal snarky comments one would make about a troll and moved on. Given that I did present myself falsely, I understood their concerns and reactions - I also think how we react when we have McCain’s people in here.
First, I give them credit for being able to track down my information so quickly - it shows that they are well-organized and vigilant about Hillary Clinton’s support. Second, most bloggers seemed more determined to support Hillary than eventually vote for McCain over Obama - for me, that would be the ultimate betrayal. Third, I see a lot of ourselves in them, with the notable exception that the sting of Hillary’s defeat still has them determined what they perceive (right or wrong) to fight for a just cause. Finally, like a good spy movie, they have people that come over here too:)
To any PUMA person reading this here, if you read my messages, you will see there was no divisiveness or malice on my part that was intended. To me, that game does not belong in the Obama campaign, and is reflective of the Republican tactics. What I did want to know is if your intentions and actions represent what is still best about the Democratic or what is worst about the Republicans. Thus far, I concluded that in spite of your initial reaction to my perceived intent, your heart is in the right place.

#535 LandiPUMA on 07.19.08 at 6:21 pm

Steve_in_KC:

To create bold text, you are on the right track, however replace the brackets (”[" and "]“) with the sideways “V” characters which are on top of the comma and the period… then it will work!

So, you had the right code tags, except:

for bold it’s:

[b]bold text[/b] but replace the brackets “[" and "]” with the sideways “V” characters on top of the comma and the period (first the sideways “V” that points left and then the one pointing right)… (If I type them here they will dissapear when I submit, so I have to explain.)

For italics it’s:

[i]italics text[/i] but replace the brackets with the two sideways “V’s” on top of the comma and the period.

#538 slyt2 on 07.19.08 at 6:22 pm

This is a good article but this part I thought was the most interesting… One major reason why Obama’s opponent, John McCain, has managed so far to rise above the public’s grim assessment of the Republican Party is that, for many voters, he has already passed this test. Even though Americans think by a two-to-one margin Obama would do more to improve the country’s image abroad than McCain, according to the new Washington Post-ABC News survey, only 48 percent said the Democrat would make a good commander in chief compared to 72 percent for his Republican rival. And “head to head, McCain was judged as the one with greater knowledge of the world by more than 2 to 1,” the Post reported.

Someone posted this site that lists European news sites and blogs.

http://www.dartmouth.edu/~wessweb/news.html

We don’t know where the EuroBO tour will actually go, but it’s in our best interest to send those news media outlets and sites information wrt to BO. Hopefully our efforts will encourage the Euro media to ask tough questions.

http://onechicken.com/PUMA/TM-LINKS.txt

Of course, many of those sites have comment sections like this. Cut and Paste the above links there and spread the truth. (Yes, it’s TMs ‘good’ reporting during the primaries which is just the tip of the iceberg wrt why BO is not suitable for POTUS).

Now the McCain campain has that wonderful Press Packet. I assume they’ve sent it, but it wouldn’t hurt to sent it across seas.

You know guys - sometimes people like CHRISTINA makes these comments to get everyone in a fury and lose their perspective and direction of their goals - and the more it is brought up over and over and over again - she WINS - not us - she is the one that gets the attention and takes away from those that have and need help on Puma projects right now.

If everyone here would just volunteer to help Trish look up just three or four superdelegates that we can not find information on easily and throw Christina under the bus - we could get this major major big big project completed and on its way to giving Hillary the nomination - how many volunteers do I see - let me count you - and everyone that brings up Christina I will give you three names to look up - Fair???

OOps… The posting here goes so fast that while I’m explaining something someone else has beat me to it!
But maybe my more detailed explanation can help anyone who is still confused about how to make text bold and italics in here.

As for the other formatting styles, such as strikethrough, bulleted lists and underline… I’ve tried the usual codes for some of them (using the carrots) and they haven’t worked in here. I know some other people have said it hasn’t worked for them either. However I’ve seen some people use bullets, strikethrough, etc succesfully in here…

wooing INDEPENDENTS

Recent polls show Independents moving away from BO. Independents are more mentally flexible than Reps or Dems who feel more loyalty to their Party’s nominee.

Many Hillary supporters are Independents and many may have moved to BO when she pulled out and may now be reconsidering. So this is a good group for PUMAs to woo!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Among registered voters, 25% are Independents, 32% Republicans and 42% Democrats (as of 2004).

Excellent!!!

Can your daughter give us some information?

1. List of MSM
2. Popular Blogs and sites, especially, political blogs.
3. What the coverage is like.
4. Any indication as to general area that BO will arrive.

4 will help target the local news for that area.

Thanks.

#575 StarDust on 07.19.08 at 6:57 pm

I went to visit the Action Center. It’s back and great.Is it true that Bill K did that for us. Thank-you for helping us get up and running again so fast.

And when you send them the letter, be sure to ask them what the he** http://www.2008unity.org is all about. How can we unite when they separate? The event is coming up July 23-27 in CHICAGO!! Anyway, it’s not only black, it’s Asian, Native American, etc., but why now, a convention with journalists of color? I hope all these Obambi nuts will disappear and leave us alone once either Hillary or McCain wins.

Cosmeta…thank you for having the foresight to save things. I printed them out but only have a couple saved

Goal…Delphine has a line under her name so if you click it takes you to her French blog. This illiterate , bitter, now guntoting old white woman can’t read French but maybe somebody more “elite” ( :P ) can see if she links any of her letters to the editors

Anyway we can all work on finishing one state at a time so at least some letters can start going out with Murphy’s help. Every list I get has delegates from all different states. Having one state at a time would be faster since many of them are probably on the democratic website for that state.

#584 IndyPUMA on 07.19.08 at 7:02 pm

#582 DancesWithPumas on 07.19.08 at 7:00 pm

Additionally, it would be nice if we can select the most effective materials to burn on cd to distribute across the world.

HoDean’s 2004 Campaign did something similar and it was somewhat affective.

#348 TrishfromCanada

Don’t know if anyone else addressed this higher up in the thread, but in re: Your suggestion of a 750 character limit per posting.

My worry is that it would limit the posting of articles that don’t have links, i.e. some newspaper articles that people has retyped to insert here, letters people have sent and longer lists of information, i.e. addresses, tel #’s, fax # etc.

My suggestion:

Perhaps longer postings should have a summary at the top describing what the posting covers and have the summary clearly marked off from the rest of the content by a line, dotted, solid, whatever….

That way people would know what’s contained in the posting and decide if they want to read the whole thing right then and there, or come back to it later if they’re interested.

Just my 1 cent worth…

#586 BillieJo on 07.19.08 at 7:03 pm

I vote that we work on Fla and Michigan first, since we will probably get more support there.

#591 delphinefromfrance on 07.19.08 at 7:05 pm

For those of you who have asked, here is a list of the French media I have contacted : (newspapers ; televisions ; radios)

http://www.lefigaro.fr/
http://www.lemonde.fr/

http://www.rmc.fr/

Here is a copy of what I have written :
“La semaine prochaine, le candidat Démocrate à la présidence des Etats-Unis, Barack Obama, va effectuer une tournée au Proche-Orient et en Europe, et sera reçu vendredi par le président Sarkozy.
Vous allez certainement couvrir l’événement en détails.
Je pense que vous devriez à cette occasion, vous intéresser d’un peu plus près au mouvement anti-Obama qui se met en place aux EU depuis quelques semaines, notamment par l’intermédiaire d’Internet, et qui est en train de prendre une ampleur étonnante.
Sont à l’origine de ce mouvement d’anciens supporters de Hillary Clinton déçus, qui ont bien l’intention de se faire entendre lors de la Convention de Denver à la fin du mois d’août, et de demander à ce que les délégués pro-Hillary puissent voter pour elle lors de cette Convention. Ils estiment que le Parti Démocrate a fait le mauvais choix, qui plus est d’une manière injuste et non démocratique, et que certains délégués pourraient se raviser et décider finalement de la choisir. En tout cas, ils réclament une Convention ouverte et démocratique, où chacun puisse voter en son âme et conscience, et non un simple couronnement.

Je pense que nous ne sommes pas suffisamment informés en France de ce qui se passe actuellement là-bas, et que le voyage de Obama a avant tout pour but de rassurer tous les Américains, très nombreux encore, qui doutent beaucoup de lui, et notamment de ses compétences en matière de politique étrangère.
Il serait utile je crois, que vous vous puissiez vous renseigner un peu sur ces mouvements de terrain (je vous suggère de consulter notamment des sites comme PUMA PAC ou THE DENVER GROUP) afin d’informer vos lecteurs / téléspectateurs / auditeurs de manière objective, en évitant la promotion excessive d’un candidat qui est loin de faire l’unanimité dans son propre pays, et encore moins dans son propre camp Démocrate.
Merci par avance.
Cordialement.”

Of course, if some of you decide to write to them, you can do it in English : I know the French are not reputed to be very good at languages, but those people are supposed to understand !

#595 nativegirl on 07.19.08 at 7:09 pm

great.. California has 2-1-1’s.. they are not state funded, but they do exist. If you have one in your area, you just dial 2-1-1 and tell the agent what you are in need of. They will find the organization that can help you with anything that you need. The link below is a map of 2-1-1’s in California.

http://www.cairs.org/211/docs/RollOutMap0802.pdf

The next link will give you the 2-1-1 agency information for each county.

I hope this helps. If you need to you can contact me at my email… Murphy should have it from my registration information. If not, let me know.

Hello Pumas

I’ve been reading your posts. Goalucard is right, we need to pick our battles. If anyone listened to the radio show last night about Rezko and *61, it contained a wealth of information about the corruption in Chicago politics. I was taking notes because I’m planning to write to the media outlets.

The speakers referenced the Boston Globe’s expose of the Rezko and *61 connection. Basically, *61 was directing public funds to developers such as Rezko and others to help renovate low income housing. However, what was happening, once they got their hands on this money, it was used for other purposes including funneling donations back in *61’s campaign and other politicians.

In additon, funds from the Illinois Pension Fund has been directed to *61’s backers to manage. In one case, Ariel Capital, the contract was revoked because they were not investing the funds wisely. Why is Ariel Capital important? Because the man that heads Ariel is one of *61’s bundlers.

One more thing, Michele’s brother is also a bundler.

I’m off to work on my assignments for Trish and others and will be back.

The key to defeating *61 is to follow his money.

Great info to pass to Tree. I just wanted to add a bit more, if that is okay?

Tree
Also, most, if not all, pharmaceutical companies will help cover your prescriptions if you qualify. I think it is based on either your income or ability to pay, etc. Just look on your bottle and see who makes it and give them a call. Can find the info about each company on the internet.

Good Luck!!

Also, regarding the Prowl that we do from the Action Center, now that we have all these trolls, I’m wondering if Murphy needs to mass e-mail us the Daily Prowl. Or do we just put up with them? We all know the trolls really didn’t leave, they are lurking in the background in their “black holes.”

I can see if I can offer guidance and help. I’m brainstorming on a couple of other projects that I may send to murphy and/or will bower. (others too).

I’m also going to spend today and tomorrow trying to alert Europe on talking points about BO on his EuroBo tour.

The following post:

Someone posted this site that lists European news sites and blogs.

http://www.dartmouth.edu/~wessweb/news.html

We don’t know where the EuroBO tour will actually go, but it’s in our best interest to send those news media outlets and sites information wrt to BO. Hopefully our efforts will encourage the Euro media to ask tough questions.

http://onechicken.com/PUMA/TM-LINKS.txt

Of course, many of those sites have comment sections like this. Cut and Paste the above links there and spread the truth. (Yes, it’s TMs ‘good’ reporting during the primaries which is just the tip of the iceberg wrt why BO is not suitable for POTUS).

Now the McCain campain has that wonderful Press Packet. I assume they’ve sent it, but it wouldn’t hurt to sent it across seas.

http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/archives/2008/07/mccain_campaigns_parting_gift.php

If, when you click on this link it doesn’t take you to the complete “Democratic Party” page, copy the whole link making sure you include “(United_States)” at the end.

Thanks for the tip to the archives link!

The MSM is really trying to play up Maliki’s statement about the troop withdrawal and how it favors *61’s policy. It is even on his website.

We cannot lose sight of the fact that there are many good papers from the Boston Globe and the Chicago papers that are doing investigative work about *61. He is up to his ears in kickbacks, funneling public money, and favors for his friends.

I believe that’s why many financial firms are backing him. President Nixon and *61 are a lot alike. Nixon won by a landside but he had to leave office because of the lies and dirty tricks. We cannot get caught up in the media’s hype.

Talk to you later!

#639 ladyhawkke on 07.19.08 at 7:37 pm

#633 Goalucard4Hil I understand there are investigators trying to unravel the mystery of BO’s birth certificate and prove it to be a fraud. They are in Kenya, everywhere. And I called the US Atty’s office a couple of weeks ago and asked when Obama was going to be indicted. Of course, they wouldn’t say anything but that could be an October surprise.

#652 N. Lee on 07.19.08 at 7:54 pm

How typical for a man to want to pit two women together to fight it out. Why are they so interested in Kat fights. Tommy Christopher, who wrote the articles in some obscure feature about ANTI-puma, is the creator of “The Jung Jurks”, a “guerilla talk show on the Youtube”. http://www.youtube.com/homertojeebus.

He seems to be getting off on creating tension between Murphy and anti-puma girl.

Don’t even engage in it, Murphy. He is the real weasel.
Next he will want a wet t-shirt contest between both of you or mud wrestling.

What a pee-on he is.

I’m going to ask you all to please drop it.

You don’t know her and truly can’t judge her. Really. She is the sweetest person I know and has a heart of gold. She’s protective of me, just like you all are, and I think the protectiveness collided somewhere in the middle.

Remember that you can’t judge a book by it’s cover and things are not always as they seem or appear. Believe it or not some people I despised at first became very good friends of mine in the long run. She really is my bestest friend in the world and I hope we can get past this. One never knows what tomorrow will bring, if it comes at all. Nothing in life is a given.

Thank you all for looking out for me.

Lou Dobbs just said Obama’s young supporters have dropped off by 1/3 recently. The close polls between Obama and McCain is from their voters not supporting either candidate. The lesser candidates are running.
The fastest growing party are the independents!

Gotta go to the meeting at GreenFun’s.

Marylandpuma,
I understand completely. I am sorry you had to go through this and hope tomorrow will be better for you.

I truly hope you two can work it out also. It can be very easy to misjudge things with only a snapshot view. Tensions can run high when it comes to politics, religion, etc., but true friendship is invaluable. It is a sign of your true depth and character that reacted the way you did. I hope you and the cub are feeling a bit better this evening and that the temperature in your neck of the woods is cooling down.

Wow, I totally missed this because I left early this morning for the Cincinnati Meetup. I just got back this afternoon, after four hours of driving and a two hour visit. It was a blast, and I wrote about in A Way Out of the Web. There’s a pic of our little group to. I hate to quote an O-bot, but man, I am fired up and ready to go! I’m starting an 18 Million Voices group in my area.

Thanks so much, Murphy, for all you do. The action you facilitate is extraordinary and so vital to the movement.

Maryland Puma, you are a great person and obviously a wonderful friend. You are right. This entire thing should be and will be dropped by all concerned. I just want you to know I am thinking positive thoughts for you, about this and about your illness.

Much respect.

662…I just read this. Is this guy for real who wrote the email? Not in my world will I ever be “ordered” to fall in line. Hillary didn’t lose, the DNC gave BOZO the nudge, illegally.

Top Dem Party Officials Send Sharply-Worded Email Demanding That Hillary Donors And Supporters Get Behind Obama
By Greg Sargent - July 19, 2008, 12:20PM
In a sign that senior Democratic officials remain deeply concerned that post-primary bitterness could imperil Barack Obama’s chances, two top Democratic officials have emailed a sharply-worded letter to major donors and other leading Dems confessing “fatigue and irritation” at those withholding full support from Obama and demanding that they get behind him “without conditions or demands.”

“I supported Hillary Clinton and am proud and pleased that I did,” reads the email, which was written by Donald Fowler, a former DNC chair and DNC member-at-large who was one of Hillary’s most prominent supporters. Alice Germond, the Secretary of the DNC, is also a signatory.

“But she lost,” continues the email, which was sent our way by a source. Barack Obama won. It’s over.”

“It is time for all Democrats, supporters of Senator Clinton and all other contenders for the nomination, to stand with him to secure his election and the election of Democrats at all levels of competition,” the email continues.

The email also laces sharply into Hillary supporters who remain embittered by the primary and are demanding things in exchange for their support.

“I must confess a bit of fatigue and irritation with people who continue to carp, complain, and criticize the results of the primary and lay down conditions for their support,” it reads. “It is time to act in a mature and resourceful fashion. It’s time to put the primaries behind us. It’s time to support Barack Obama without conditions or demands.”

Pretty stern stuff. The full email after the jump.

Dear Democratic Friends:
2008 is a Democratic year-at all levels in all the states. The opportunity is ours. We just have to seize it.

We experienced an exciting, intense, sometimes difficult, campaign to nominate our presidential candidate. Now it’s over. Barack Obama won.

I supported Hillary Clinton and am proud and pleased that I did. But she lost. Barack Obama won. It’s over.

It is time for all Democrats, supporters of Senator Clinton and all other contenders for the nomination, to stand with him to secure his election and the election of Democrats at all levels of competition.

I must confess a bit of fatigue and irritation with people who continue to carp, complain, and criticize the results of the primary and lay down conditions for their support. The Los Angeles Lakers didn’t establish conditions to recognize the Boston Celtics as NBA Champions; Roger Federer did not demand concessions before recognizing that Rafael Nadal defeated him at Wimbledon.

It is time to act in a mature and resourceful fashion. It’s time to put the primaries behind us. It’s time to support Barack Obama without conditions or demands.

It’s time to WIN for Barack Obama, the Democratic Party, America, and our future. We have an unparalleled opportunity. I hope we will all do everything we can to seize the moment.

See you at the Inauguration.

Sincerely,

Don Fowler
DNC Member At-Large, South Carolina
Former Chair of the Democratic National Committee

Alice Germond
Secretary, Democratic National Committee

Thanks for sharing the link about your meetup group. I just reviewed it quickly, but I’m going to read your notes about the meeting. Wonderful enthusiasm!

#677 Lin4Hill on 07.19.08 at 10:59 pm

indypuma - I will post this here and on the upward thread: I will contact my daughter tomorrow, though she is due to have a bebe any day now (hence my trip this week). Delphine has provided us much to chew on with the French connections. I am attacking that myself tomorrow, plus the sites provided in the other posting which connects us to Britain and Germany too.

What she has told me anecdotally for months now mirrors what Delphine and Storyteller have shared: the Europeans are completely enamored with the Golden Boy because he is the opposite of Bush, and they can’t stand Bush. This merits us providing another point of view. Most definitely.

bythelake - thanks for sharing the Don Fowler letter. Heh, heh, heh….they sound worried. Don’t you think they sound worried? They want their “loyal” dems to stop complaining? They are tired? Hell, we’re just getting started!!!!!!

I’m gonna try to catch up, but I’m tired and lazy so I’ll probably only get half way thru

#4 #6 Trish & Sherry:
MO appears so insincere in her words and actions. You can tell they have been working on her. In the early days of the campaign she would grit her teeth and roll her eyes during his speeches. You could tell she so disagreed with what he was saying.”

I find it funny that she claims to be able to relate to women with kids and a career, given that she has a nanny…sheesh. I saw an article over on MYDD (no link, apologies) on her which linked to an interview where she was quoted as saying that she *had* to buy fresh fruit every day because her kids wouldn’t eat it unless it was fresh ever morning. Makes me wonder if she did grow up poor, if that’s an excuse she accepts - where is the evidence of the values one gains from having to do with less? It also doesn’t reflect well on her that she’s letting her kids grow up so spoiled. (And one wonders what becomes of all the uneaten fruit.)

#681 SergeiRostov on 07.20.08 at 3:02 am

bmw60 reminded me of something which bear srepeating:

Why the media has been so nice to Obama: For the past 16 years or so, it’s been their job to get Republicans elected. So they trump up things to knock out Dem candidates which they perceive to be a threat: Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Dean, Edwards, Hillary…contrariwise, if they like a Dem, that’s a big red flag: they want the weakest Dems on the ticket.
As far as Republicans go , they defend the strong ones as best they can, knock out the weak ones so as to leave the strongest.
Of course, they may intead see Obama as weak and able to pushed around as President; which is their real view we’ll find out in the post-convention pre-election period (should he be nominated).
