Just received an email describing the desertedness of shopping malls and big stores. Empty Home Depots, malls bereft of mothers with baby carriages, day care centers with empty toddler rooms. I hate shopping and avoid it like the Daily Kos, so I’m a pretty poor judge, but what about you Pumas? Have you noticed a somewhat sudden downturn? Are orders down at your small business? Do you know of layoffs among your family and friends?
What’s the temperature?
(Oh, and apparently Obama’s grandmother is “gravely ill” with a broken hip. That’s why Obama has to”RUSH” to Hawaii in a few days. The woman is 85 years old, and a fall or broken bone for someone very elderly often DOES indicate something quite serious, BUT, no one in the campaign will elaborate or even hint at WHAT might be ailing her. She had a broken hip and was released from the hospital a couple weeks ago — back to her own apartment. TRANSPARENCY for the Obama Campaign. It’s what’s missing. Oh, and another thing, please alert me when any of the Puma sites (or even any repub sites) start ridiculing and humiliating the elderly lady. I’m SURE some Pumas will be posting pictures of the grandmother on the floor of her apartment, unable to get up. Right? Right?)
CALL THE OBAMA PRESS OFFICE AND ASK THEM WHEN OBAMA WILL COMMIT TO TRANSPARENCY ON HIS SMALL DONORS, HIS MEDICAL RECORDS, HIS PERSONAL AND EDUCATIONAL RECORDS etc.
CALL – 312-819-3008!

Hey everyone!
I’m feeling it. Business is dropping off.
My concern is that Grandma is probably the most reliable witness as to where Bozo was really born. If I were her I’d get the hell out of town and get myself into the witness protection program.
I was watching Fox news and they had a doctor on saying that the candidates must disclose their medical records.
He looked at McCains and said he is in great health, at his perfect weight, has pain but does not take pain killers and the past cancer issues is basically a non-issue.
I didn’t catch the doctors name – did anyone else?
Hey Bluesgal…
Jody in florida — crossed my mine too.
Murphy,
Sales on Walmart is down, employees are worried they might not have a job if NObama wins the election. His tax increase will make big corporations like Walmart laid off some workers, full time workers will become part time, prices of basic commodities will rise.
We are in recession for so many months since early part of this year, but nobody wanted to talk about it. NObama and Democrats in Congress will increase our taxes from the bottom all the way up, there’s no tax cut! If you don’t get hit with taxes in your Income Tax Return, you will get your tax increase in basic commodities you buy every day! That in turn will move US Economy from recession to depression.
Watch your spending, don’t buy anything that is not necessary.
Murphy , I like the cut of your jib .

Hi Diva! I agree. I was basing my statement on the blog comments because I’m at work and can’t click all of the links. I wrongly assumed that consumers knew what the doll said based on manufacturers packaging.
#8 Goofsmom
Didn’t catch his name but all along I have been thinking, nobo IS a smoker and has been for years and didn’t his mom die of cancer at a young age? Don’t know about other family history but sounds to me like nobo could be in worse shape than McCain. Wonder if nobo has some lung issues and that is one of the many reasons he isn’t releasing medical records.
That’s not the case here. sales may be down at Walmart, but the store is still always packed. Home depot and Lowes are busy. And the Mall…Well the Mall is always like a little city of it’s own.
Hi Diva2
I am waiting for that big bombshell to come out on OB. Hopefully the Republicans will come out with something soon to knock OB back to Chicago. But I still believe he is going to lose anyway.
SouthJerseyPUMA
I believe that the API story is bogus, like many people and I think the doll issue is silly and that’s enough to warrant your disdain for me? Whatever.
Chill, it’s nothing personal SouthJersey.
But hey, it’s a free country, you’re free to dislike me. It’s no big deal to me.
If the doll is for real, I don’t see a problem with it as long as the person buying is knows what it is saying. Afterall, this is still a country of religious freedoms.

Parents Outraged Over Baby Doll They Say Mumbles Pro-Islam Message
A doll some are claiming utters pro-Islam and even satanic messages has outraged parents in Oklahoma and Pennsylvania.
People insist they can hear Fisher-Price’s “Little Mommy Real Loving Baby Cuddle and Coo” mumbling “Islam is the light” and “Satan is king,” according to KJRH.com and MyFOXKC.com.
“There’s no markings on the box to indicate there’s anything Islamic about this doll,” said Gary Rofkahr of Owasso, Okla., who was at work when another man brought the toy in to show his colleagues.
Rofkahr said he found various versions of the doll at local Target and Wal-Mart stores, which have since pulled the toys from their shelves, reported KJRH.com.
Pennsylvania Targets have also reportedly stopped selling the doll, according to MyFOXKC.com.
Fisher-Price referred all calls to parent company Mattel, which didn’t immediately respond to FOXNews.com’s requests for comment.
A Target representative told KJRH.com the company has no plans to recall the doll nationwide.

Re: talking doll. Nope, not a joke. ABC7 in Los Angeles covered it a few weeks ago. You really couldn’t understand what the doll was saying, until it was suggested to you. Everyone one the news piece then heard it EXACTLY and so did I.

let me ask you all this, and please scorn me, burn me whatever you want to do, it’s okay, because i think we are all in this together for the right reasons…..
Here goes, I watched Barak in Florida, he had google ceo, and bill richardson LOLOLOL and some more very impressionable people, i tried to watch and understand, but it just seemed to me, that everything Barak and all these others called for, was government help in backing all these new energy policies, is no one but t boone picket rich enough to work on energy, does the government have to do it all, and that brings me to my most important issue, if bush has been so bad, then where id barak gonna get all this money.
Personally, I would like to think, people would take their money and invest it where their mouths are, if they have any money. Wouldnt you think Donal Trump would be investing in Solar for his new real estate deals, how about all these hollywood elites, do they have solar panels, how about Oprah? They alone could boost the solar demand alone without anyone else.
As far as the malls, i havent been a vigorous shopper for many moons other than Christmas at the malls, when i actually just go to buy some things and see the decorations and feel the spirit of it all. Perhaps, the credit card people are getting by with keeping their high interest rates steady and holding and not giving an inch and refuse to participate in helping the consummer. If this is indeed a crisis, shouldnt all be involved?

#278 mountainsong – I always read you posts and follow your frame of thought whenever I can.
I smiled and did a mental high 5 to you when you bit the bullet and voted for the right guy.
When I read about Hillary’s speech in Florida a few days ago, I couldn’t believe it. It was such an eye opener, that she was able to put aside her personal feelings about her former opponent to embrace the
party. Even tho she has amazing qualities about her, she knows which side her bread is buttered.
Its really pointless to be dissappointed in what others say or do because we will be forever dissappointed. Just like whoever said that Hillary is a Puma. That is how the person feels. It is right for her and we should let it be and move on. We don’t always say what is right for others but sometimes we say what is right for us for that moment.
I guess I am trying to make you feel better by not letting others cause you dissappointment. Just understand that they do what they think is right and perhaps we won’t take things they do too much to heart. The same goes vice versa – people could be dissappointed at how we are, they just have to accept it and move on.
Don’t let people dissappoint you. You will be happier.
It is possible.
I am giving you another high 5 – I think you ROCK and you don’t even know it.
Dances – it will be in the mail along with my newsletter
actually that 68% to 23% is pretty shocking.
anyone remember what Kerry’s numbers among the active military were like? I dont remember them being all THAT bad.
This is where I’d like to also know the favorability/unfavorability numbers. Do the active military have a generally good opinion of Obama or a STRONG dislike of him?
NOT a good omen. not at all.
FREDDIE BROWN – you were asking yesterday about the Asian Voters and Hispanic – here is a link that I just happened upon – don’t shoot the messenger – from Gallup that breaks down many of the groups from Japan to Philippines – those that “SEEM” to be going for Obama – could be targeted with your flyers —

Obama’s Grandmother ‘Gravely Ill’ With Broken Hip, Relatives Say
In a campaign ad this year, Obama described Dunham as the daughter of a Midwest oil company clerk who “taught me values straight from the Kansas heartland” — things like “accountability and self-reliance. Love of country. Working hard without making excuses. Treating your neighbor as you’d like to be treated.”
Is this the same grandmother he threw under the bus and claimed was prejudiced but who (according to Obama) taught Obama to treat your neighbor as you’d like to be treated.
well~ all have a good day! when you come and post something here and someone with no clue jumps an attack~ I need to leave b4 I just let it rip!
love to all my ol’ time PUMA’s! miss you guys!!!
* I was not aware of this doll and just saw about it on line~ so I WANTED to bring it to the attention of others as I found it disgusting with everything else going on! I dont care what religion anyone is, but when you have all this talk about muslim’s wanting to make their beliefs the only belief and all be muslims~ IT IS PRETTY DAMN SCARY!!!!
if any pre-DNCC PUMA’s would like to say hi, Murphy can give you my email. I will not come here to be attacked for what I post. Why I was mia in the first place with all these non-PUMA know it alls.
I gotta go. I am going to add some things about ACORN and some other things on the rest of my flyers that I got from Freddie.
Oh, by the way, did any of you get an e-mail from Hillary today. She was talking about voting 3 more Democrats in, so the Democrats will be in majority. They were Mark Begich, Jeff Merkley, and Mark Udall. Do any of you know these guys?
well, if Sarah Palin is not going to be on Wolf’s show tonight, they sure are using her name to draw attention to his show, i guess they want their ratings to go up too, so they are pre-promoting LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
First Installment of “The Nightmares Joe Biden Gives Us”
Perhaps the scenario Biden was describing to his zillionaire donors in the Emerald City was:
In January the military stages a coup, taking over the Pentagon and our military headquarters in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. The Obama government mobilizes his new private army to ruthlessly put down the military uprising, declares martial law, and executes high profile American generals.
Freedom of the press, habeus corpus, and all political speech critical of Obama is suppressed and outlawed.
Biden was telling his rich folks not to worry — that they wont be harmed if they keep quiet when all this goes down.
When Bill Clinton became President, many people in the military left the active service.
My hubby was on a 3 day week 3 weeks ago, but is back on full time now. My business is down to a trickle. My work load is 1/10 of what it was 1 year ago. I am looking for another job to subsidize. Of course, being a real estate appraiser is fool hardy at this time.
I had a ‘pre’ interview two weeks ago as a helper in a cabinet maker’s architect’s office. I talked with them yesterday, and they have decided not to fill that position right now. Their business has taken a dive. They lost several big orders in the last month.
We have had at least 4 shops downtown (10,000 pop town) close in the last 6 months. Our housing starts are the lowest since 1958. We have two strip malls and a large office complex that are showing more than 50% vacancy.
On the bright side, the ethanol plant just produced its first run of alcohol. A new aluminum recycling plant goes on line in a few weeks. A local machine shop just expanded, hiring 15 more people permanently.
Just got off the phone with BO headquarters. I asked when the Messiah was going to release his medical records. The guy couldn’t “find” anything regarding that on his computer. I asked when we were going to get a chance to review BO’s thesis. He didn’t know about that either. I asked about his college transripts, no on that too. Then I asked about his birth certificate and asked if that is why he was going to Hawaii. I said the one on the web site was a fake and as a voter in Illinois I insist on viewing his birth certificate.
The guy went into alot of ahs’ ur’s etc and then I told him to get off the hope dope before it is too late and I hung up! What fun!!
Well yesterday my husband went to work and they are going down to a 3 day work week for the rest of the year with 1 whole week off at the end of the month and the last two weeks of Dec off. My son lost his job 3 weeks ago. I havent noticed a change in Walmarts parking lot.
Hi y’all.
Just popping in to let you know that McCain has now gotten 3 more official votes. We voted yesterday. After I voted I announced publically that I USED to be a democrat but no more. I got some smiles and some dirty looks but you know what? It felt gooood!!!!
As far as the doll goes IT IS A BIG DEAL. It was the manufacturer’s responsibility to mark the box with what the doll says. Anytime there is anything political, religious, or adult rated it should be shown on the box so that parents can make an informed decision when purchasing a product for their child. It is not up to someone else on how you raise your children in their beliefs.
Palin will make her first appearance on CNN Tuesday. The vice presidential candidate has agreed to talk to Drew Griffin on the campaign trail in Reno, Nev.
well, they are advertising it on wolf’ spot there, so who the hell knows LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
#40 sistermoon3 I don’t know I couldn’t find it but you know what we will just turn it on around 6 and see (better safe then sorry)..
Ok I am gonna go watch general hospital be back around 4 (but will lurk during commercials).
gotta say, I went shopping this weekend ( had to use up my gift cards from last Xmas- no new outlays of cash for THIS family!) and I was SHOCKED at how busy it was! I expected a ghost town, but it was crowded.
I’m on the front range of CO.
Personally I think lots of families, like mine, are waiting for the election to see if taxes are going to go up or WAY up. But my neighbors seem to be spending- I’m in Blue-ish country tho, so they may be celebrating their “victory” according to the MSM. They wish. I can’t wait for them to be Puma-smacked come November 4.
Ummmm ,Murphy , try decaf for the rest of the day . You’re scaring the children .
36 freddiebrown Thank you for the kind words. With the military so strongly opposed to Obama, I am encouraged to move in a different direction. I know that the underground militias are mobilizing, with full support of the military.
Don’t be surprised, if Obama wins, to see food prices go through the roof.
#24 Sistermoon
I do know that with utility companies, for example, acording to state laws each individual state requires them to have a certain % of renewables by a specific date. For example, one state might require that by 2010 the utility companies have to have 20% of renenwables as part of their energy production.
TAXPAYERS of each state pay for these renewables by rate increases. The devolpers of the renewables (such as one that constructs a windfarm pays for the windfarm — so that is private resoures). The states are the big drivers in renewables.
Where the feds come in, is let’s say the infrastructure is old or needs developed in order to incorporate the renewables, then the government would get involved in paying for developing or improving the infrastructure.
Bottomline, state taxpayer have to pay for most of their energy improvements and our federal taxes and the feds help pay for the infrastructures to support the renewables.
Finally, the feds get involved in international energy purchases which, of course, the $$$ for that would somehow come from us.
#46 Murphy ~~~ “The Obama government mobilizes his new private army to ruthlessly put down the military uprising, declares martial law, and executes high profile American generals.”
Not gonna happen~~trust me.
I heard Walmart sales are up but the more expensive Department Stores sales are down.
#52 Sistermoon
That is going into a Palin-eating dark hole. WHY give them anything after the way they have treated her and McCain. I just hope Brazilla and Campbell Brown are put in the kennel until she is done.

Basically, the word Coonass is slang for a person of Cajun ethnicity. I’m 1/3 Cajun French, (from Acadia, Canada), 1/3 French, (from France) 1/3 Irish.
Some view the term as an ethnic slur against Cajun people. Most of the working class though see the term as a badge of honor.

I hate to be paranoid, but it is now the world we live in.
*just for the record~
unemployed Phlebotomist Lab Tech~
dont do much shopping as a result~ other than what my daughter needs for school clothing, and food~ $185 a wk C/S doesnt go far! Because i didnt have Ins I could not be under a Dr’s care continuously when i had kidney issues so my temp disability was denied~ after being out for 30 from work, they had to dismiss me. I was told I am available for rehire, but it was a 200 miles a day round trip and my money bought gas and waited for a 4 wk reimburstment to get my money back~ I now can not afford my Ins for the car, and cant leave at 3 am because no one is here with my 9 yr old daughter so therefore I can not return to that job~
as far as C/S~ it isnt paid like it should be and if i get 2 payments a month~ I consider that lucky.
*with all of Bo’s planned give aways, I am STILL NOT voting for him!
hugs to my PUMA peep’s… ♥

No he doesn’t mention those other things. I guess I was trying to make a point that he flip flops about whether his grandmother is a good person or not. Whatever fits his purpose!!!!!!
The AA guy at the gym that made me so angry the other day (voting for BO because “Obama gonna solve all our problems when he gets to paint the white house black and put a barBQ pit in the backyard”) was there again today debating w/ a small bushiness owner. The business man was telling him in great detail how if BO wins the election, he’ll be forced to lay off 3 employees to keep his taxes and health care expenses low enough to stay in business at all. The AA guy kept saying “it don’t matter, Obama gonna take care of all of us anyway” ! :::: shaking head….beating head against wall:::: The guy can’t be serious! Guess he really thinks BO is the messiah and can turn water into wine and multiply the bread and fishes!
Stores, walmart, costco etc… all still busy. Parking lots full. I was just saying to my husband the other day, as we drove by a number of restaurants….parking lots full and people waiting outside for tables.
Husband is in construction, he took a job in another city 1 1/2 years ago cuz no work here. Moved down to 3days week since Easter, moved to 1 day a week day after bailout. Now nothing. But the company wont let him go and insist he is avail to work when needed. We are now fighting with unemployment for benefits as an attached employee so we dont lose the house. BUT they are so busy, so far this month they have gotten 70,000 applications.
But people are shopping and eating out.

Hi all,
Unfortunately, I don’t have time to read the blog entries (so someone may have mentioned this), but just wanted to say that I’m so glad McCain filed a complaint with NBC because they refused to air Biden’s comments about the first 6 months of an Obama presidency (and how we should expect problems in the international realm). I’m glad the Republican Party finally got on this. They should be making a huge deal about the MSM’s one-sided reporting and blatant omissions. I’m off to file my own e-mail complaint with NBC. Best.
P.S. Maybe the McCain camp should also air a T.V. ad featuring Biden’s comments.
DWP
Oh is there a way to send the vid link over to all the PUMA blog roll list?

The following articles were posted by Democracy Now today. While they may indeed be true, this website has not covered any of the abuses by Obamabots nor has it
vetted Obama . . . one more siyte claiming to be “independent” that isn’t:
WV Voting Machines Switch Votes from Obama to McCain
Early voting in the presidential election has already begun in many states, and problems are already emerging at the polls. In West Virginia, voters in at least two counties using touchscreen voting machines have claimed their votes were switched from Democrat to Republican. Six voters reported having this problem in Jackson and Putnam Counties. In both counties, Republicans are responsible for overseeing elections. One voter, a retired nurse named Shelba Ketchum, said, “I hit Obama, and it switched to McCain. I am really concerned about that. If McCain wins, there was something wrong with the machines.” Election officials blamed voters for not being more careful. Both counties use machines made by Election Systems & Software.
McCain Supporters Harass Obama Voters in North Carolina
In North Carolina, over 200,000 residents have already cast ballots in early voting. In Fayetteville, a group of John McCain supporters heckled and harassed a group of mostly black supporters of Barack Obama as they voted on Sunday. The Washington Times reported the McCain backers shouted and mocked the voters as they walked into the voting place. The website Facing South reports the McCain supporters likely broke the Voting Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits anyone from intimidating or threatening a person for voting or attempting to vote. On that same day in Fayetteville, North Carolina, thirty people reported having their tires slashed after attending an Obama rally.
Ohio Governor: GOP Is Trying to Scare Newly Registered Voters
In Ohio, Democratic Governor Ted Strickland has accused Ohio Republicans of trying to scare newly registered voters by filing lawsuits that question their eligibility. The Republican Party has filed numerous legal challenges questioning the status of about 200,000 newly registered voters in Ohio, warning about the potential for voter fraud. Governor Strickland said, “In the last few days, the Republicans have tried to instill fear in Ohio voters about whether their registrations to vote will be challenged and whether they will be able to cast a ballot.”
Obama Campaign Volunteer Assaulted in Wisconsin
In Caledonia, Wisconsin, a fifty-eight-year-old Obama campaign volunteer was assaulted on Saturday while canvasing. Nancy Takehara was attacked by a disgruntled homeowner who accused her of being connected to the community organizing group ACORN. Takehara said, “He grabbed me by the back of the neck. I thought he was going to rip my hair out of my head. He was pounding on my head and screaming.” Takehara said she was not seriously injured.

The Republican Party has filed numerous legal challenges questioning the status of about 200,000 newly registered voters in Ohio, warning about the potential for voter fraud. Governor Strickland said, “In the last few days, the Republicans have tried to instill fear in Ohio voters about whether their registrations to vote will be challenged and whether they will be able to cast a ballot.”
Obama Campaign Volunteer Assaulted in Wisconsin
In Caledonia, Wisconsin, a fifty-eight-year-old Obama campaign volunteer was assaulted on Saturday while canvasing. Nancy Takehara was attacked by a disgruntled homeowner who accused her of being connected to the community organizing group ACORN. Takehara said, “He grabbed me by the back of the neck. I thought he was going to rip my hair out of my head. He was pounding on my head and screaming.” Takehara said she was not seriously injured.

When gas hit $4 I started picking up females hitchhiking to work. Woodcutting business closed shop 20 well paying jobs gone one weeks pay. Sold euipiment at a 75% loss. Lobstermen aren’t going out. Can’t make expenses. Talked with the nursery man today. Worse year ever. Tossed large % of inventory. I’ve been storing canned goods sice June.
FInaly backonline. Seems everytime I look at that API story my connection goes haywire, Had to call my server and have them fix it. was forced tog et my news from the MSM. (huddled in the corner and shaking uncontrollably)
Welcome back South!!:)
What doll are you people talking about? I will check the other threads.
As to my business. It is booming. So much so I am expanding my store with what little cash I have on hand.
Sound good? Not really.
I sell discount groceries. Close date, past best if used by, slightly damaged. I have seen a lot of new customers come in. Tells me that people are cutting back wherever they can.
One thing i have also noticed is how crowded thrift store have become. I have been shopping in them for 20 years and I have never seen this level of patronage.
72 kat in your hat That reminded me of my ‘friend’ who is black. Yesterday, I went with her to the courthouse so she could register to vote. Afterward, I asked her why she was voting for him. She said, “You know why.” I said, “WEll, I think I know why, but I could be wrong.”
She said, “Because I think he would be the best president. ” I asked, “For whom?” She said, “Me. ” “So what issues do you support him on?” She says, “All of em” I said, “Even raising taxes, eliminating Roe vs Wade, and supporting segregation?” She says, “Yup.”
ello ello,
Yes I’ve noticed how empty the malls are, but Target was packed the other day, that is unusual.
No my small business is not down in customers yet, I’ve been keeping an eye on it.
I’ve been out of work since February, the longest time I’ve ever been out of work. It’s getting to the point where I can’t even find anything to apply to.
However,
Gas prices are down over a dollar in the last few weeks.
I think the financial ’silence’ we are seeing means people are holding their collective breath.
All I can say is don’t worry, the stocks will bounce back up, they always do. The rich fuckers will want their fortunes topped up, or I believe they will loose their heads (figuratively and literally). They must feel the buzz in the air, people are royally pissed off. It wouldn’t take much to set that kindling alight.
Please give a special thanks to DancesWithPumas for all the hard work she has done Moderating the PUMA Regions. Without her we would be lost. On top of all the work on the Action Center and all the work since June she is a Super Puma!
Please give a special thanks to Antifish for taking over the Northeast Region on top of keeping the Southeast Region under control. Thanks a gazillion Anti.
Please give a special thanks to SeattleGirl and Prplevette for jumping in to take over those Regions. You are Veeeeeeeeeeeeery Goooooooooood PUMAs
Special thanks to Puma Elaine, MJ, Webfoot, Catherine for the hard work they have done since JUNE. Gooooood Pumas.
Without all this help we could not do what we need to do.
Love Mama
***Hooray for our super pumas****************
The rest of us would be lost with out you.

Federal Election Commission Files Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Proper Jurisdiction
Just filed. I’m on it. As I get details, I’ll share them here.
++++++++++++++++++++
the gov just does not care about the constitution.
If Obama is using his grandmother as a ploy, I feel sorry for her. She raised him and this summer he was in Hawaii for a week and the press said he only visited his grandmother for “one hour.” Obama never even visited his mother during the whole time she was dying of cancer. When questioned, he said he probably should have visited her.
Obama even threw his grandmother under the bus in PA this spring.
I just heard on TV, Obama says his grandmother is “gravely ill.”
Also FOX says Biden is going to make a Big Speech and go after McCain.
This, well-spoken, woman on a video talks about14,000 Hillary Supporters:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKWM22iId98
moutainsong:
you can tell an Obot that he likes to BBQ babies on a grill as a hobby, and they will think it’s fantastic.
I am telling you…it’s something in the genetic makeup of an Obot….the same types who would follow ww2 leaders, know what I mean?
(Sorry to any puma related to an obot.)
Biden on FOX. What’s next?
Does anyone remember that movie that coma out in the early 1980’s about women who get together to castrate rapists?
It was banned because it was considered too violent.
#72 kat in your hat
That is so sadly hilarious…talk about the Hitler youths of Ignorance
I thought they had pulled Biden off the campaign trail after the last gaffe… heres hoping he pulls another one!
GoPumaGo
I just got off the Berg website and header was “Obama and DNC admits he is not a natural-born and therefore cannot be President. Then he lists because they have NOT responded to anything, they are admitting to a bunch of stuff about nobo. Until I read further I thought he definitely HAD admitted it but it is only through being non-reponsive.
I will go back and look at your newest development.
Biden: If anyone doubts whether BO is fit to be CIC, just ask Colin Powell.
Me: If anyone doubts whether Iraq has WMD, jusT ask Colin Powell.
Of the 4 candidates, Biben sounds like the dumbest, like a alky with a wet-brain.
folks I hate that word folks is as bad as friends yuk!!!!
Also, I know this is incredibly superficial, but Joe Biden is on TV, and he is possibly one of the least attractive men I have ever seen.
Looks ok when he smiles…from afar…in a black and white photo…with softening to the image…at night time.
Otherwise he looks like an old ALIEN with his “human mask” malfunctioning.
He be fugly.
(Sorry. sorry. immature. mean.)

We’ve come through wilderness and watched
The cloud by day
The burning sky into dawn
Have you forgotten who you are?
Did you forget whose trip you’re on?
Stay strong

There’s a new dawn to light our day, our day
We’ve gotta stay strong

My ssiter is an oBot and theres no need to apologize. She is an idiot. She was going to join the “Peace and freedom ” party out here once. Until I explained to her that it is the public name of the American Communist Party out here.
She is part of a “church” that hods no doctrine is better than any other and regularly uses occult practices as services. When I explained this to her she claimed it wasn’t occult. The I showed her the occult books that described the rituals. Said that didnt matter.
Typical obot. Believe me they are more stupid than you can imagine.

Just spoke to a friend down in Texas. He has buddies who are stationed in different areas overseas. He told me that they have been complaining to him that they are not getting their election ballots and no one can find out why.
If they were in one area, I would say that the problem is localized, but they aren’t. This gets scarier at each turn…
Does anyone have Andrea Mitchel’s contact information? I’d like to remind her that lying by omission is still lying.
Was in COSTCO’s parking lot on Saturday in Brookfield, CT and had to wait for five minutes to get a parking spot. Store was packed, with long lines of full baskets at each of their numerous check-out registers.
Same thing at Home Depot — Parking lot packed, store packed, lines at the registers.
Anecdotal evidence:
Local car dealer friend only being able to qualify 12 out of 41 potential buyers so far this month.
Local commercial developer friend spending more time than usual collecting rents.

BUT AMERICANS DO care about the constitution!!! This judge, no matter what he chooses to do, the truth will come out at some point and HE will be the one responsible for changing the constitution without due process, HE will be the one that has put this country in danger (if someone has dual citizenships, they can’t be President because no one knows who their true affiliation is with), HE will let thousands of liars and frauds run rampant in government/congress, HE will have sold out his children, all children and all voters.
As I said the other day, WE NEED a HERO, Berg is one but hopefully Surrick will also be one!
Fox does this: shows bits of rallies–McCain-Palin and Obama-Biden.
Did anyone see O’Reilly last night? People are worried that if Obama wins that Fox would go POOF and then the entire outgoing media would be fully pro-Obama.
I can tell you right now, that if Obama is renting 30 minutes on all the networks on the 29th, and he already has his Obama channel 73 on the dish network, that he would surely have control of several stations if he became prez. Obama around the clock media…like Dear Leader. …DOOM, I tell ya DOOOOOM…

Just read part of that article….as much as I could bear, that is..
What a muddled bunch of incoherent, irrational, illogical goobledegook coming from Biden’s mouth!
Sounds more like hypnotic message #2 is being set up:
When everyone hates what Obama is doing to America and is scared out of their wits (literally) as America turns into its antithesis, stick with BO and Joe. It’s those racist anti-BO goblins trying to eat out your brain from inside. Don’t listen to the tiny, few, muffled, almost dead voices of sense and rationality in your brain, ignore them. Go out and buy your pretty blue burka with the BO insignia on the front and prepare to bow down to the new JFK/MLK/RFK, yada yada yada, all wrapped up in the Great American Inigma, BARACK O-O-OBAMA!!!!
ON ehting I noticed, and I am in california, is that obots are acting desperate. It is as if the polls were showing McCai ahead, Has anyone else noticed this.
I was talking in front of my store with a fellow who is voting “O” and asking him why? What policies does he like? AN obot customer jumped in and said “Don’t listen to him! Don’t change your vote!” She went on for a bit like a nut while my friend got a look of shock on his face. Rofl. She did more to swing his vote than I did.
Men Vote Barack Obama ‘Most Influential Man’
Tuesday, October 21, 2008 12:48 PM
Article Font Size
Barack Obama was voted the most influential man of 2008 in an online poll released on Tuesday that asked men to decide who most impacted the way they behave, buy and think.
The U.S. Democratic presidential candidate was ranked No.1 by readers on the AskMen.com lifestyle Web site, beating Apple chief executive Steve Jobs and Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps, who landed in the No. 2 and No. 3 spots, respectively.
Republican presidential candidate John McCain was ranked No. 10 on the list, which was compiled on the basis of 200,000 votes from readers of the Web site whose average age is 27-28 years-old.
Last year’s winner, British soccer star David Beckham, fell to No. 25 on the 2008 list, which asked men to go beyond professional success and likeability when picking their top 49 choices.
James Bassil, editor-in-chief of AskMen.com, said he thought Obama’s top place was not so much a political endorsement of his candidacy as “a reflection of the interest the presidential race has ignited in the United States.”
Stephen Colbert, host of the satirical news show “The Colbert Report,” was the only other politically-minded name in the Top 10 of the 2008 list, which was dominated by sports stars, actors and musicians.
The Top 10 on the AskMen.com Most Influential Men list:
1) Barack Obama (Democratic presidential nominee)
2) Steve Jobs (Apple CEO)
3) Michael Phelps (Olympic swimmer)
4) Robert Downey, Jr (actor)
5) Stephen Colbert (political TV commentator)
6) Gordon Ramsay (celebrity chef)
7) Christian Bale (actor)
9) Cristiano Ronaldo (soccer player)
10) John McCain (Republican presidential nominee)

Remember Hillary said turn off the news and she said fox is the only fair news that was last week.

He also went after Obama’s tax plan and Biden’s broken record speech. He was slamming both talking heads, not just the Mac guy.
everyone seems to be so upset about obama buying tv time, as i am, but let’s look at this way, the debates were not enough, he has to have his own time……………
let’s all look at obama, and then, cnn and the world can say that he had the most viewers in the world
let’s just make a pact now, we will all have something else to do during that time, how appropriate, and actual
protest by turning our tv’s off for 30 minutes, dont worry, you won’t miss a thing

this from that same article I found VERY interesting…
“that voters cannot raise the issue of constitutional eligibility just because they are voters.”
Then who has the right to raise issues of constitutionality on this or any issue?????????? because we are all simply voters and citizens….ever last person no matter who they are……that statement sounds like a Stalinist totalitarian and communist statement where no one has any rights to anything.

Delaying the World Series is a sacrilege in the USA. I was surprised when I read that but continuiing through the article, it always comes down to the bottom line.
A man walked into a very high-tech restaurant in New York City.
As he waited to be seated, he noticed that the Maitre’D was a robot. The robot clicked to attention and said “Sir, there is a one hour wait. I am programmed to converse with you until your table is ready, if you please.”
Intrigued, the man said “alright.”
The robot clicked several more times and then asked, “Sir, what is your IQ?” The man answered, “Oh, about 164.”
The robot then began to discuss the theory of relativity, Interstellar space travel, the latest medical breakthroughs, etc..
The man was most impressed. The next day he returned and thought that he would try a different tack .
The robot again asked, “What is your IQ, Sir?”
This time the man answered, “About 100″.
So the robot started discussing NASCAR racing, the latest football scores, who was going to win the Super Bowl and what to expect the Yankees and Red Sox to do this season.
The guy was tickled and had to try it one more time, so the next evening he returned. Again the robot asked what his IQ was.
This time the man answered, “Oh, about 50″.
The robot clicked, hummed and clicked again then leaned in close and asked very slowly,
A-r-e y-o-u-r p-e-o-p-l-e r-e-a-l-l-y g-o-i-n-g t-o v-o-t-e

#145 TexasTigress
Well, I heard that differently. It was the McCain dude who first said brought up a comment about the “fear factor” and Shep called him on it, (which he should have).
As for his comment about the Mac camp talking about the Ayers issue over and over … well, he’s correct, they did do that. And the Mac guy should have said yes and then explained why and how it’s important. I didn’t hear Shep say that the Ayers issue was “unfounded”.
The Mac guy should have been better prepared for some drilling by Shep. He wasn’t. I WANT that kind of stuff from my news guys. I don’t want Fox News to always side with the Mac side … then it looks like they’re in the tank for Mac.

Thank you so much for Andrea Mitchell’s contact information. She happens to be among the many people that I formerly admired for whom I have lost respect.
Mick – it wasn’t only that – did you not hear him when he opened the show saying how he had read our letters about ACORN and ‘thank goodness “it isn’t at all like what our e-mails say ? aqnd then he said “voter registration fraud is NOT voter fraud and I challenge you to find one fraudulent vote .”
He was completely condescending about our e-mails and blew it off like we were making it up – JUST like he did with the Ayers situation .
Even the bloggers on FOX were shocked .

Here is info. on Battleground Poll. It is 48-47 – BO up by one. The polls says that White Women are even at 43 each and white men preferr McCain 51-36. (I don’t by this about white women – white women went for Bush in 2004 by 12%).
Key stat is the party breakdown –
Dem 42.6%, Rep 38.9% and 18.5% Ind. The error overall is +-2.5% so this is really even.

I’m in and out again today… don’t know if anyone else posted this yet or not. I was listening to Hannity on the radio and he played Palin giving one of her speeches…. and she was talking about Biden’s comment regarding promising an international crisis during the first 6 months of a BO presidency. She was outlining what she thought might be the 4 or 5 causes for it that Biden had mentioned… you know… Pakistan, the usual stuff for #1-4…. but… I’m STILL LAUGHING at #5. If you didn’t hear it, it was PRICELESS… It went something like this: The fifth one is Biden’s next press conference (or something like that)…. when she said it, my gosh it was HILARIOUS!!!! That Biden’s mouth is now just as much a concern for Obama as international problems! ROFLOL!
Why McCain is right on health care
By Doug Holtz-Eakin, Orlando Sentinel
October 21, 2008
Senior citizens of America: Your Medicare benefits are safe; the Democrat nominee for president is not. Health-care reform is one of the most important issues in this campaign, and voters deserve an honest discussion of the issue.
Unfortunately, despite pledging to campaign according to a “new type of politics,” Barack Obama has adopted one of the oldest tricks in politics: Hide the truth about your own policies, attack the opponent. Let’s review the facts.
Sen. Obama has recently launched one of the most dishonest and distorting ads in recent memory. The ad falsely claims that Senator McCain will “cut Medicare benefits” to pay for his health-care plan.
Apparently Sen. Obama is against eliminating Medicare fraud that allows criminals to make millions by charging for fake procedures, payment reforms that will provide coordinated and more effective care for our seniors, and new treatment models that will better manage chronic-care diseases. These are among the reforms that Sen. McCain has proposed for Medicare.
Not one senior will be dropped from the rolls. Not one cut will occur. Instead, seniors will receive higher quality care at lower cost and reduced premiums.
Another ad misleadingly accuses John McCain of taxing health insurance for the first time, leading to the largest middle-class tax increase in history. In reality, the tax code will subsidize — not tax — health insurance both before and after the McCain reforms.
It is true that the reform will make that subsidy more fair — providing the same help to rich and poor regardless of the source of their insurance. This is a powerful way to reduce the number of uninsured, which is why even Sen. Obama’s own economic policy adviser has advocated for a refundable tax credit like the one proposed by Sen. McCain. And there is no tax increase.
A final ad accuses Sen. McCain of sending the tax credit straight to insurance companies. American families can choose which policy best fits their family, and the insurance company that provides it. At that point, the funds will be transferred to the insurance company of their choice.
The flood of distorting ads is apparently intended to change the subject from Barack Obama’s plan. He will mandate that parents cover their children and fine them if they don’t. He will mandate employers provide the insurance Barack Obama dictates, or face a fine if they don’t. He refuses to explain either fine, and his top health adviser recently told the Wall Street Journal that they have no plans to come clean before the election.
Barack Obama’s plan will cause almost 50 million Americans to lose the health coverage they currently have. It has been estimated to cost more than $240 billion annually — a financial burden of more than $3,000 per American family.
When the kids and employees are forced into the government-run plan, America will be closer to the government-run, single-payer health-care system Barack Obama has said he wished America had.
Health care reform is too important an issue to limit to 30 second sound-bites. But when a presidential candidates’ plan does as much damage to the existing health-care system as Sen. Obama’s, it’s understandable why he would want to avoid talking about it.
Doug Holtz-Eakin is McCain-Palin 2008 senior policy adviser and former Congressional Budget Office director.
Murphy:
For todays question: My husband & I own a farm, my husband is a teacher. We ALWAYS feel the pinch. These are jobs to love not to profit from. So yes, we are spending less. We saw this coming so we have paid off the farm with this years farm earnings and savings, kept much of the harvest for canning & freezing. So Farm income was down.
Most of the people we know are living within their means and paying down debt, rather than considering luxuries as needed necessities.
I filled out my absentee ballot today! McCain/Palin. I also voted against anyone that participated in the DNC Debacle or voted yes on the bailout.
I would love having someone in politics to vote FOR though!

ICYMI: Gov. Tim Pawlenty On Barack Obama And “Crisis”
“Well, it’s not the first time that people like Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton or many others have suggested that Barack Obama isn’t ready to be president, doesn’t have the requisite experience to be president and the last thing the country needs is a president who the world might be tempted to test.” — Gov. Tim Pawlenty
Governor Tim Pawlenty (R-MN)
FOX News’ “Fox & Friends”
October 21, 2008
FOX News’ Gretchen Carlson: “So let’s take a look at what Joe Biden said over the weekend when he was out in Seattle. He basically said that if Obama is elected within six months there will be some sort of an international incident because international leaders, I guess, will see it fit to do something against the U.S. How did you take these comments?”
Gov. Pawlenty: “Well, it’s not the first time that people like Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton or many others have suggested that Barack Obama isn’t ready to be president, doesn’t have the requisite experience to be president and the last thing the country needs is a president who the world might be tempted to test. We need a candidate who is going to have passed the test. John McCain is respected around the world because of his national security, military, and foreign affairs experience. The country is struggling economically and in many other ways and we don’t need the added pressure of some sort of invitation or temptation by others to see that kind of weakness. This is not coming from me or from somebody on our side, this is coming from his own vice presidential candidate, Joe Biden, who repeatedly has suggested Barack Obama’s not ready.”
Carlson: “Well he did at least when he was one of his competitors and they were debating against one another. So, do you think it’s still in his mindset that he would say something like this?”
Gov. Pawlenty: “Well, I think Senator Biden is sometimes, you know, makes a lot of interesting comments but you see the situation, for example, in Georgia or Ukraine. There could be temptations by other countries to say look maybe this is a time where we test this potential new president. That kind of temptation wouldn’t be as high in my opinion if you had a seasoned experienced known commodity steady hand on the throttle like John McCain.”

October 21, 2008
Five Days Of The Obama ACORN Connection: Day 2: Seeding Growth
ARLINGTON, VA — Today, McCain-Palin 2008 campaign spokesman Ben Porritt released the following statement:
“By the time Barack Obama ran for the U.S. Senate, he had grown so close to ACORN that they were characterized as ‘old friends.’ In fact, when Obama first ran for the Illinois state senate, the head of ACORN in Chicago said it was ‘natural’ for ACORN employees to work on his campaign. Given ACORN’s unlawful involvement in the presidential election, the American people deserve an honest and forthright explanation from Obama about the true nature of his relationship with the group.”
The Facts
Obama Trained ACORN Staff
Obama Was ACORN’s Lawyer
According To Chicago ACORN Leader, Toni Foulkes, Obama Worked With ACORN So Closely That, “By The Time He Ran For U.S. Senate, We Were Old Friends.”
Obama Taught “Classes For Future Leaders Identified By ACORN”
Obama Was ACORN’S Lawyer
Obama Represented ACORN In A Lawsuit. “The latest wave of ACORN investigations has provided Republicans with both an opening to assail an old foe, and a new line of criticism to use against the Democratic presidential nominee, who represented ACORN in a lawsuit in the 1990s.” (Alexander Burns, “ACORN Gives GOP New Line Of Attack,” Politico, 10/11/08)
Obama Admits To Being ACORN’s Lawyer. “Obama called the allegations ‘a distraction’ and said as a lawyer he had represented ACORN in a 1990s lawsuit.” (“Obama: ACORN ‘Not Advising’ Campaign,” United Press International, 10/15/08)
Obama Trained ACORN Staff. “At the time, Talbot worked at the social action group ACORN and initially considered Obama a competitor. But she became so impressed with his work that she invited him to help train her staff.” (Letta Tayler and Keith Herbert, “Obama Forged Path As Chicago Community Organizer,” Los Angeles Times, 3/2/08)
According To Chicago ACORN Leader, Toni Foulkes, Obama Worked With ACORN So Closely That, “By The Time He Ran For U.S. Senate, We Were Old Friends.” “Since then, we have invited Obama to our leadership training sessions to run the session on power every year, and, as a result, many of our newly developing leaders got to know him before he ever ran for office. Thus it was natural for many of us to be active volunteers in his first campaign for STate [sic] Senate and then his failed bid for U.S. Congress in 1996. By the time he ran for U.S. Senate, we were old friends.” (“Barack Obama’s Involvement with ACORN Unearthed, Missing Articles Recovered,” The Cleveland Leader, Accessed 10/10/08)
Obama Taught “Classes For Future Leaders Identified By ACORN.” “Obama continues his organizing work largely through classes for future leaders identified by ACORN and the Centers for New Horizons on the south side.” (Hank De Zutter, “What Makes Obama Run?” Chicago Reader, 12/8/95)

GoPumaGo:
Re: Berg: I am no lawyer, but I DO know, if one fails to respond, one can “default” to the other side’s pleadings, motions, and any respective allegations contained within them.
That is why when one is acting “pro se” (on one’s own behalf) one of the tactics is to bombard the legally inexperienced with so many motions, and pleadings that there is relatively little chance to look up all of the case law to support a response.
In Berg’s case against Obama? Obama would be taking a HUGE RISK to go on record with a “denial” if there is any chance that Berg is correct.
I also know that Obama and his legal team know all too well that the other side could very well be “holding, can gain, or awaiting disclosure of certain pieces of supportive evidence” to his claims.
My bet is that Obama’s best and only defense is stall and delay. This forces Berg to keep expending money by filing new motions on such non-responses and even the Judge’s failure to make a timely ruling on Berg’s current motions to a higher court.
It is all such a fricking game of legal chess, that no individual stands a chance in our court system without huge sums of cash for a lawyer or a law or paralegal degree — and the ability to devote all of their time to work on their case.
Now. The big question that I believe Berg has already answered – why hasn’t Obama and his Huge TEAM of lawyers simply answered with the documents?
In my case – because they had already stood up in court and said they didn’t exist – hoping that I had not kept copies.
In Obama’s case — is it because he has already stood up before the American people and claimed he is qualified (already holding offices) – hoping that this would never come to light?
Did anyone know that lawyers are “Officers OF THE COURT?” They are the Court’s representative on behalf of the private citizen — sworn by oath to tell the truth in any and every pleading and court of law? b>ROTFLMAO!!!

**** UPDATE: Philip Berg Lawsuit ****
Tuesday, October 21, 2008
Federal Election Commission Files Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Proper Jurisdiction
Because of its status as a government entity, the Federal Election Commission was given until today to file an answer to the original complaint filed by attorney Philip Berg on August 21, 2008. This afternoon, the FEC met that deadline when it filed a motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, answering Berg’s complaint by arguing that he “lacks standing to raise the issue of a candidate’s constitutional eligibility.”
“Moreover,” the motion reads, “even if Berg had standing to raise the constitutional eligibility issue, the Commission should be dismissed as a party to this case because it has no oversight over the Constitution’s Presidential Qualifications Clause.”

Interfering with the World Series is worse than Unamerican–It is dangerous. I learned today that:
ST. PETERSBURG – The black activist group, International People’s Democratic Uhuru Movement, announced today that it plans to conduct an act of civil disobedience Wednesday at the World Series opener at Tropicana Field….
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27297591/
Back in August, it was the Uhurus who disrupted Nobo’s rally in St. Petersburg, asking what he was going to do for AAs.
A number of years ago, it was the Uhurus who rioted and burned the city to protest a (justified) shooting of an AA youth by a white police officer (the youth tried to run the officer down w/his car–it was self-defense). My daughter’s pediatrician was injured when a brick was thrown through her windshield. The area that was burned was an area of businesses that serve the AA community, including a business that assists people in financing their purchases. This was a couple of miles from my home. Not only could I smell the smoke, a helicopter flew so close to the top of my house I thought it was going to land in my back yard.
The Uhurus don’t tend to endorse candidates for any office and I was unable to find out whether they endorse anyone for president. But (in my opinion) they are militant and are not at all adverse to violence.
Tropicana Field is about 1-2 miles from my house.
BTW, my daughter and I are both white and we live in a neighborhood that is very diverse–by design.

Patterson was completely behind Hillary right past the bitter end. Only started spewing Obamashit afer the convention….Then he came out with that crazy community organizer/racist comment.

And here is the bottom line:
Can we all just imagine for a moment just how many people in our Government would NOT WANT the fact that Obama isn’t qualified to hold office?
What would that say about home-land security?
What would that say about our oversight committees?
What would that say about the competency of our government representatives?
…Especially NOW… in a time of “war, socio-economic crisis, etc.?

The Comprehensive Case against O
http://hotair.com/archives/2008/10/21/the-comprehensive-argument-against-barack-obama/
Mountainsong and Mick:
Boy that obot chick on neil’s show really didn’t help “O”s cause. She just reinforced why it’s a socialist program to redistribute the wealth.
Brooklyn: He was a light weight Hillary supporter though. Ya, Spitzer had tons of enemies and he was an idiot. But my first question to myself was: who is next in line? Paterson. I asked that because this was during a time when superdelegates and their endorsements appeared to be crucial. His “community organizer is racist” comment made me groan, I was like ah crap–NYC has a racially paranoid person in office. It sucks.
I would like to learn more about him and which organizations boosted him.
I think it’s suspicious when “scandals” break and politicians lose their positions. I have so much mistrust for my own party that I wonder who will take the place of that dem guy who got caught cheating all over the place (if he loses).
I’ll be back. So hungry.
Can we all just imagine for a moment just how many people in our Government would NOT WANT the fact that Obama isn’t qualified to hold office to COME OUT?
What would that say — a man who has been in state and federal Government (and given access to all kinds of top security issues) and is now a front-runner for the office of the President — and has taken almost a billion dollars of tax-payer’s money?
Is there ANYONE in our government who would want that to come out NOW?

She can’t be a typical white woman~~~ a typical white woman would have raised him better.
You have to wonder. This woman raised him from the age of 10. Also, wonder why he was sent back to the states at 10. I know Obama’s mother was not a typical mother, but sending your 10 year old off to live with anyone else is HUGE. Mom wasn’t in his life much after that. Something must have happened in Indonesia.
I wonder if Martin is trying to obtain his school record at Punahoe. Getting into Punahoe is next to impossible unless you are admitted in the early grades. 5th grade is an odd time to change schools.
Hi Pumas….
Been busy but wanted to pop in and see how you were doing… I’m working on the swing state of Virginia and hoping to work the polls on election day to ensure “Mickey Mouse” doesn’t vote in Virginia (I know, he submitted a registration card in Florida…)
Anyway, I wanted to pass this link on even though it’s not on topic but for some reason it has not hit the MSM

#264 bluesgal on 10.21.08 at 5:15 pm Does anyone know if the election can be delayed because of voter fraud and who could do it???????
Because all elections are as they say “local” any election in any state can be postponed …even before the FISA gave the Pres. the right…by the Gov, Sec. of State, Attorney General, Election Board or legislature of any state….and they can claim any result invalid and hold a new election if enough fraud is found, complaints filed, or suspision of any other legal issue…all elections are dictated by the states themselves and in reality don’t all have to be on Nov. 4th as long as the results for and the delegates meet in december in time to submit the results to congress to be approved by congress….Oh that one you didn’t know about….yeh the final word in the election of the Pres. is still in the congress approving and holding the vote of the delegates votes sent to them………..People in this country are so very very uneducated when it comes to elections and especially the Presidential election.
Oh and Nikki is an AA

it doesn’t matter one whit to me if nikki is AA or BB..nasty poetry ios nasty poetry and I don’t find any poetry in what she wrote.
This has been my life experience:
anyone over 40 basically grew up with “racist” inclinations – in one form or another.
Our racist history has had a deep and long-term affect on the African American culture.
I simply do not believe that is the driving force behind much of the opposition to Obama.
I cannot speak for those who may still be reacting to Obama through their “racially-charged belief systems”.
I have seen and heard it (racial slurs against him), but I also have heard from several deeply, politically involved people that many in their “groups” once favored him over Hillary and McCain, but have now changed their minds – as he changed his positions, campaign practices and “transparent policy”.
Thank you, thank you, thank you ALL for all of your hard work! You are Super Pumas!

Hey I second that emotion!!! Thanks to all who do so much and I who do so little!
Nikki Giovanni was one of the premier voices in the Black Arts Movement. The Black Arts Movement was essentially a Black Power Movement. The Black Arts movement was started by activist and writer Amiri Baraka. The movement has been describes as the most “controversial moment is the history of African-American literature”. The Black Arts Movement or BAM was triggered by the death of Malcolm X and inspired African Americans to start their own magazines, publishing houses, and art institutions. The Black Arts Movement influenced literature by portraying the unique voices of African Americans in an atmosphere that did not have any diversity. Participants in BAM expressed the view of ethnic and racial minorities, views that had not been valued by the mainstream.
Since her youth and the Black Arts Movement, Nikki Giovanni has produced an enormous body of work. She has written over two dozen books, which includes poetry volumes, three collections of essays and children’s books. A number of Giovanni’s books have received awards and honors. Her books “Love Poems” and “Quilting the Black-Eyed Peas”, were honored with NAACP Image Awards and “Blues: For All the Changers” reached number four on the LA Times Bestseller list. This is rare for a book of poetry. She has also produced spoken word albums that have won awards such as Best Spoken Album, an award presented by the National Association of Radio and Television Announcers.
im talking about what is on cnn now, im talking about the speech she made in nevada, wow

=============================
I agree. What is the purpose of having this hateful crap on the blog? Did I miss something?
So far I am not feeling it but others clearly are in Northern California. I hate to shop but noticed packed parking lots at two locations this past weekend so was tempted to see what the attraction was. There were substantial ‘going-out-of-business’ sales at Linens ‘n Things, NJ-based housewares stores and Mervyn’s department store chain. Both companies have filed for bankruptcy and are liquidating. Spoke to one woman working in Linens n’ Things to express how sorry I was that she would be losing her position. Her response was that she was only a part-time employee and it was the full-time people who were devastated. This is just the beginning.

well I am glad for her that she has accomplished so much ! But I still think her poetry stinks –if that is an example. If – god forbid!– people of a different hue. went around writing that stuff–everyone would be up in arms! Nasty IS nasty and that is nasty!

wonder why, when asked about what his grandmother is like, oitsallaboutme, didn’t say: one grandmother is a typical white woman, and my other grandmother is a typical kenyan woman”. Why exclude one?

In case Rosebud has not explained yet…I think she was iterating the “Joe, the Plumber” concept. Maybe she was watching Palin’s speech in Nevada where she was reading signs from the audience like ..Mike the mechanic….heck I don’t know.
Since her youth and the Black Arts Movement, Nikki Giovanni has produced an enormous body of work. She has written over two dozen books, which includes poetry volumes, three collections of essays and children’s books.
And to think all those trees died for that hatred and CRAP that would hardly good for kindlin.

290 GBPuma That’s why Obama is so cocky about winning.
292 Sunshinelvr yes, I felt compelled to vote that way. There is noting democratic about Obama, his campaign or his supporters. So, really, there is no Democratric Party.
But, like I said yesterday, Colin Powell is what pushed me over the edge. He made it racial. So I voted like I did. but it also seems like we MUSt be conservative with all our resources to survive as a country. Beyond that, BO, MO, Colin Powell, and Nikki G. are just grizzly bear bait.
8 out of 10 blacks in the military support Obama. What does THAT tell ya?

Afternoon everyone. Got home and read all the posts. I’m curious about the BO birth certificate and grandma situation. I’m sure he went to Hawaii after he stole the nomination to get his grandmother to either sign something or promise not to contest something he produced about his citizenship. Also think he’s going back because the heat is back on about this now that the election is close. Anyone have any idea why his grandma would not back BO up on however he’s planning to handle this? If she was willing to help, he would already have produced somehting. Any other takes on the situation (I hate to think he’s just waiting for her to be out of the way).
#253 Goofs Mom That API story is a hoax, or at least that is what I’ve heard. If it were true, they would have already put it out. I understand that their website addy leads back to Obama.

I told an FBI agent that worked that case that you can bet your sweet ass that, if I were locked in a closet and repeatedly sexually assaulted over the course of several months – which no one disputes happened – there is little doubt that I would probably end up “bonding” with my captors too!
Of COURSE Obama is pushing for early votes! That’s one of the ways he beat Hillary, isn’t it? The bad stuff about him didn’t really come out until the primaries were more than half over. A lot of people who voted for him in the primary wished they could change their vote after all that came out; but they could no longer change their vote. He knows the value of “vote today while you’re still excited from hearing my brainwashing speech. Don’t wait and let the aura wear off before you vote!!!” LOL…

Well…the hatred for white woman especially has been crystal clear.
Sorry, forgot to say ‘hello’ pumas. Find the Nikki Giovanni words very distasteful and wish we did not have to read such hateful stuff on this blog. She may be a very accomplished woman but please can’t we leave that kind of race baiting in her books for those who want to go search it out?
Why is Barack Obama delaying his arrival in Honolulu?
Could it be because Andy Martin is there, and Obama is waiting for Martin’s departure before The Chosen One lands?
(HONOLULU, HI)(October 21, 2008) This column is just a short response to Barack Obama’s strange behavior. We will have a full column (Part Two) later today after lunch. (Remember we are on Hawai’i time, so the columns come out much later on the mainland.)
Obama suddenly announced Monday his grandmother had been gravely ill for weeks. He has his own plane. All he had to do is tell the pilot to file a flight plan for Honolulu and take off. He’s the king of his own armada.
But instead of rushing to his grandmother’s bedside, Obama is waiting until I leave Honolulu before he lands.
Ask yourself, “What would I do?” What would you do if you had your own plane and mom or dad suddenly took ill? Would you tell the pilot to set course for Hawai’i, or tell him to wait three (3!) days before coming to your relative’s bedside? How sick is she if Obama is will to delay his “emergency” for three days?
This entire episode is becoming curiouser and curiouser.
If his grandmother is sick enough to suspend his campaign, why is he “suspending” it days late? Curiouser and curiouser.
Last night I was out doing interviews that had to be postponed because of Hawai’i Supreme Court litigation during the day. My cell phone kept ringing with people wanting to alert me, and warn me of possible harm from Obama with his imminent arrival here. I do not believe Obama, or even his more rabid supporters, will try to cause me physical harm. They are too busy measuring for carpet and drapes in the White House.
But I do believe there is a powerful awareness on Obama’s part that I have been pursuing his lies for four years, and we are closing in on his secret truths. The negative karma must be overwhelming. The thief always knows when he is about to be caught. (“Book’em, Danno?”)
No one (except the groveling mainstream media) seems to believe Obama’s grandmother is so ill that, in light of their past relationship, she merited a campaign suspension (more on that later today).
Strange as it seems to me, we are apparently getting to Obama, and he is increasingly afraid of the David in this David and Goliath (Obama) drama.
Is Obama trying to avoid me? (We leave Honolulu Wednesday night and he arrives “Thursday.”) You be the judge.
Stay tuned for High Noon in Honolulu.
“What Patty Hearst syndrome”
Stockholm Syndrome, no? Where the abused identifies with the abuser, develops a loyalty to the point of justifying his abusive acts.

Amen ! It’s very disgusting. I don’t think any of us here harbor any ignorance about the race-baiting that has been going on this whole election process. Or what it will mean to non-whites if BO wins the White House-he has made it pretty clear that he is a complete racist. Those people who work in his campaign and those who have failed to see the “real” BO will the only ones who will be surprised when the “true colors” of BO & his crew come out!
Hey all my info about Bozo and family is wrong according to a report in Hawii newspaper and wedding pictures so Corsis book is wrong. His gm and mother were both at his wedding,and bozo says his children spent time with gm before..sorry next time I’ll research before I jump into a conversation.
Curious that the financial crisis didn’t warrent suspending his campaign.
Murphy, you know I admire you immensely – and donate as much as a self-employed person with no work can (that’s something for the other thread: yes, my environmental testing business is dead in the water) but, anyway, here’s my question: I am wondering if there is anyway you might consider changing the way we leave comments on this blog. The problem is you have so many people posting on your threads – and yes that is great – but there is no way I have the time to read all the comments to find if, for example, someone has responded to my post, or to see how others respond to posts others made. I loved the format of TalkLeft (can’t stand them but loved the format). I also liked the rating of comments. And, I would love to know your thoughts on this but I will never find out unless I get really lucky. Best Regards and XOXO, Cate

No offense, but it might serve you to inform yourself of the thread on “the doll”. The ensuing comments seemed like innocent input me.
I saw attacks from only one side, and she chose to leave the blog. Maybe I missed something, but the accusations seemed misdirected / misinterprettd and a carry over from other misinterpreted comments from an earlier thread.

BREAKING NEWS: Obama To Be Countered on NATIONAL TV Airwaves
You’ve heard the news reports that Senator Barack Obama has purchased 30 minutes of airtime on the major television networks. He’s also rented out a cable news channel that runs his political propaganda 24-hours a day.
But now those supporting the McCain/Palin ticket are fighting back!
The Our Country Deserves Better Committee is pleased to announce that we’ve begun to purchase airtime on national cable television networks, and if we can raise enough funding we will expand our advertising to the major broadcast networks. We can no longer limit our television advertising to the key battleground states, we’ve got to get our message out to combat Barack Obama’s as much as possible.
We will debut our national advertising with our TV ad, “Sarah is a Fighter”. To donate to help air this ad, go to http://www.ourcountrydeservesbetter.com

FEC REPORTS
The reports are in. Here are BO’s numbers:
Three funds are active, the BO Campaign Fund, The Obama Victory Fund and the DNC Fund. They padded the BO Campaign numbers with a transfer of $32.5 million to get him over the $150 million mark.
If you disregard the Transfers, BO recieved $121 mil, the Victory Fund recieved $69 mil, and the DNC recieved $16 mil, totalling $205.5 mil. They spent $161 mil and netted $44.5 mil.
To compare this to what they claim as receipts, they show $153 mil for BO, $69 mil for VF and $42 mil for the DNC.
As Closing Cash on Hand BO has $133 mil, VF has $4 mil and the DNC has $23 mil.
Hillary Clinton’ Campaign Fund Changed very little from last month.
If you want to look at details the FEC ID #’s are:
BO, C00431445

DNC, C00010603

I believe TT explained that when she told osaka puma that she loves to stir the pot.
A former police officer writes to General Powell. I think we forget Bill Ayers and his group killed police officers.
***************************
“General Powell,
I am shocked and angry that you would endorse a man such as Barack Obama for the office of President of the United States. I’ve always admired you, sir, especially because you grew up two blocks away from me in the South Bronx and achieved greatness as a military giant.
Sadly, you and Barack Obama’s friends and supporters in the news media downplay his friendship and business relationship with former terrorist and Marxist university professor Willam Ayers. One aspect of the Ayers terrorism saga that’s almost totally ignored is his reputation as a cop-killer.
For instance, in Nyack, New York, Ayers’ terrorist group the Weather Underground launched an armored-car robbery that left two Nyack, NY police officers — Officer Waverly Brown and Sergeant Ed O’Grady — mortally wounded. In addition, the Brinks armored-car driver, Peter Paige was also shot to death by the Weathermen.
Quite simply, Ayers’ group of killers left five children without fathers as a result of the brutal and vicious armored car robbery.
Progressives for Obama signatories include Weathermen Howard Machtinger, Jeff Jones, Steve Tappis and Mark Rudd. Machtinger helped author the the mission statement of the Weathermen that called for revolutionaries within the United States to wage a ‘people’s war’ and attack from within. The government would fall and ‘world communism’ eventually would be instituted.
In addition to the New York police officers killed, a 1970 pipe bomb in San Francisco set by the group killed another police officer and critically wounded yet another cop. When given the opportunity to serve on boards and appear at press conferences with Ayers, an up-and-coming politician named Barack Obama jumped at the chance.”

Joe Biden ????? What’s up with him?+A+C
Catching Up With Joe the Plumber
By John H. Fund, 10/21/2008 10:55:20 AM
I crossed paths with Joe the Plumber over the weekend and found him to be a common-sense, down-to-earth guy who knows a lot more than just pipes.
Asked about his exchange with Barack Obama on the candidate’s tax plan, he said Mr. Obama was a smooth talker but not a good listener. He seemed mistakenly to think Joe was already making a lot of money, not merely that he hoped someday to own a business that would make over $250,000 a year. “I don’t make nearly that much now, but I hope to in the business I buy someday,” Mr. Wurzelbacher told me.
Mr. Obama also muffed details of his own tax plan, confusing a small business’s revenue and net income, and the tax rate that would apply under his proposals. He also seemed hazy about the Flat Tax, put forward by Steve Forbes and Dick Armey a decade ago, confusing it with proposals for a national sales tax and saying the rate would have to go to 40%. “I was talking about one thing, and he was answering me about something else,” Mr. Wurzelbacher recalls.
The Heartland Institute, a free-market think tank in Chicago, points out that a flat tax would let Americans see exactly how much government costs in one easy, transparent and accountable tax. Mr. Obama’s reforms, in contrast, would only add to the thousands of loopholes, exemptions and complications of the current 67,000 page tax code. “A candidate for president should at least know the difference between a flat tax and a national sales tax,” Heartland concludes. “But both a flat tax and a national sales tax are head and shoulders over the convoluted tax system we have now.”
John Fund is an editorial writer for the Wall Street Journal
I was listening to the local conservative radio station this morning (it is the only thing here that isn’t in the tank for BO, and I can’t stand listening to all the stuff about how he is the Messiah), and a man called in to the show. He said that he had come up with a way to guarantee that BO does not win the election.
He went on to say that Pres. Bush has a very low approval rating. Maybe McCain needs to go talk to Pres Bush and have Bush come out with an endorsement for BO.
I can hear it now…..Bush could say that he has looked at both candidates and that he thinks BO is the best candidate to continue leading the country in the direction he has started

Why is Barack Obama delaying his arrival in Honolulu?
Could it be because Andy Martin is there, and Obama is waiting for Martin’s departure before The Chosen One lands?

What is the link to his posts? Why is he leaving Honolulu at all if obie is going Thurs? Why not just stay there?

RE: 289 & 219 (downstairs) on the Feminist Movement.
I think that’s what McCain meant when he said recently that Sarah provides a counterpoint to the Liberal feminists… referring, I think, to those feminists that think that if you’re not a Liberal and not pro-choice, you can’t be a feminist.
And Sarah IS a feminist. She’s been a member of “Feminists for Life” (FFL)… a pro-Life feminist group.
Click FFL site to learn more
I respect others’ beliefs, even if I may not agree. And I think Sarah’s primary political focus is not about turning her personal beliefs into Law!

Is there no news today……….where are the Rebub scuds?
#344azpuma…now that would sew it up for McCain!!! Bush should do it, could you imagine the look on BO’s face? I heard Biden said that Bush is now working with him and Obama and they are working also on the withdrawal from Iraq and said it will be 2011 when they do! Could we now say it is not McCain who is Bush, it is BO!! What an October surprise that would be. I would pay to hear it!!!!
Obama and his supporters have done what they could to foster racial warfare. Perhaps their ulterior motive is to “thin out the herd” as Dennis Miller once put it. The only race these people care about is ‘rich’.
Donna Brazile, et al are inciting lower class AAs to get their heads broken by rioting on Obama’s behalf. With friends like her, I don’t think the AA community needs more enemies.

ADDING TO LANDI’S SOUND BITES:
Imagine you have a serious illness which requires surgery. You have two surgeons to choose from: One hasn’t finished medical school, but is willing to perform the surgery since you will help him gain much needed experience, albeit at your expense. The other has had years of experience performing the surgery you need, has fine-tuned how best to do it, knows what to expect afterwards, understands the risks and benefits, can address any and all complications that may arise, and doesn’t need supervision to do it.
Which surgeon would you choose?
The more experienced one?
Right! Now, multiply that by hundreds of millions to represents all Americans and you can see that we need someone with experience to maximize our chances of being safe from harm.
No brainer. End of story.
#331 Dances… I had no idea what was going on with SJPuma and whomever.
I just hate to have someone leave because of one poster. I felt if SJPuma’s post was uncalled for that Murphy would have deleted it..
I don’t get in many discussions, because I seldom hear from anyone.
If I was wrong, then I’m sorry..
Hi Anna!
Yes, we must FOCUS ON FLORIDA, and Ohio and PA. BO et al. are pushing the ‘vote early’ mantra. We cannot wait for any ‘October surprise’ else we will be the ones who will be sadly surprised in November.
RE number of posts on the blog… I co-own a support group for my eye disease Fuchs’ Dystrophy (it’s a yahoo group FuchsSupport, and one of our websites is http://www.fuchsdystrophy.org) … we have over 1250 members from around the world in there, and our posting board generally has about 35-50 posts a day. What is interesting is that probably over 50% of the people we put in start howling that they just don’t have time to read the posts (not even when they come in digests of 25 posts per digest). It is really alarming is that this is something to try to help people in our group from GOING BLIND. That, apparently, isn’t important enough to spend a few minutes a day on for many people. My co-owner and I get more frustrated than I can say here about it. Just thought I’d share that with you, Murphy….

IMPORTANT TECHNICAL QUESTION…
I’m going to the garage to get my oil changed tomorrow and plan on taking my flyers from Freddie to fold there while waiting. What is the CORRECT way to say PUMA? Is it pooma or peuma? If someone asks me a question while folding (and I hope they do) I want to be able to tell them…

Great surgeon analogy! Anyone who has faced surgery will absolutely get the point. Young folk who think they are —- (what’s the word? – senior moment

One way around the issue you raised is that if you have a question or need help with something ask in your post for people to type an easy-to-find heading. Even just typing your name in upper case or bold can make it so you can find your answers fast.
#278 mountainsong on 10.21.08 at 1:54 pm Two and a half weeks ago, while putting out freddie’s flyers, I was physically assaulted and called a racist. I thought it was a small sacrifice for a greater good. And I cast my ballot for McCain and Repubs down the line except for one democrat who happened to be female.
Today, i feel insulted and defiled when I read that “Hillary Clinton is a PUMA”. While she may be the reason I’m here, and while I worked hard to see her nominated, history shows it wasn’t meant to be. I accepted that as best I could.
But, was it two days ago? Hillary appeared in Florida by Obama’s side and encouraged us all to vote for him, telling the crowd this man is fit to lead America. I almost gagged. Hillary is an amazing woman and would have been a great President I think. But all women are amazing.
I have tried to accept that there are those here who totally revere and worship Hillary Clinton. I’m ok with that. But to call Hillary Clinton a PUMA is the same, to me, as spitting in my face.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Some people here did not see Hillary in Florida. It was on TV and it caused me to cry. The pain of watching her speak for him so forcefully crushed me. I cryed most of the rest of the day and some the next day. I am still not fully recovered. Might take a long time.
I want to say that it caused me to change my handle from GoHillaryGo to GoPumaGo. But today my new handle reflects better the love that flows through me. I still love Hillary but it is a love that brings me pain where Puma brings me joy.
I talked about it previously and I want to say that I will not support Abuse. Not now and not never. I will not support Obama because he abuses everyone and especially women.
I am writing this to you mountainsong asking you to be firm and love yourself. Your decision is coming from inside of you. Remember that God is inside of you. Do not accept abuse from anyone. Do not allow anyone to convince you to accept abuse under the mistaken idea that forgiveness is accepting abuse. It is not forgiveness to accept abuse. The acceptance of the truth is the acknowledgement of abuse and the statement that abuse is never acceptable. The proper role for forgiveness is to hold the abuser accountable and demand that the abuser say he is sorry for abusing people and he will not abuse again. It is most important that he not be allowed to abuse again.
What Hillary did was wrong. She said to the world and to all women to accept the past abuse of Obama without him statine he will never do it again. She called upon all of us who were abused by Obama to work for Obama and help him get elected. Hillary looked for the solution to the problem in us instead of in Obama. I will not accept rewarding the abuser. Hillary is wrong here. She is helping to perpetuate Abuse of Women by validating Obama’s abuse and helping him to get away with it.
Sorry Hillary but you are dead nuts wrong here. But I will look past it and give you another chance if you promise to never support an abuser again. Especially wrong is to support an abuser who abuses women.
Thanks for letting me get that off my chest. I am still in pain from watching Hillary support Obama the way she did.

As for the subject of this thread, my husband gets our groceries at Wal Mart. He says it is always full.
I shop at Bon Tons. They always seem to be busy enough. They aren’t cheap. I wait for a sale (25%).
I buy my books and C.D. from Amazon. Otherwise I buy collectible china cats online from Lenox. These are pricey, so I don’t think they will be that busy this Christmas..
I don’t think this Christmas will be good for business.
I’m going to see Palin tomorrow any suggestions for a Poster? I have some Poster board and want to make something original. Ideas are welcome.
CANVASSING UPDATE:
I live in heavy Obama territory, but still manage to find lots of McCain yard signs every day as I drive and expand my “catchment area”! I’ve found that a fair percentage of those with McCain yard signs talk about having friends, aquaintances, colleagues, church members, etc. who are Dems. They are extremely interested in materials to give them about caucus fraud, about JSND sites, etc. So, for anyone using this approach (knocking on doors of McCain households to urge them to make calls in swing states), I now recommend bringing along materials you can give those who want some to give to their Obama supporter friends.
#362 murphy
I happen to like the linear format of the blog in this current setup. It allows me to scroll through quickly and read through a variety of ideas and comments that I might miss out on if it were limited to discussion topics. I might not see an important post if I pass over a particular topic thread (as an example).
So I vote to keep the blog at it’s current setup. It has a definite charm and advantages. Just my 2¢

This is NOT original, but you could recycle Hillary’s line about being for every person who’s ever been knocked out, written off, etc….this one’s for you! Could be appropriate to Palin and an interesting way to re-apply Hillary’s words.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2111009/posts
The New York Times tried to suggest I exaggerate. Do I exaggerate? Apparently Barack Obama doesn’t think so. He knows what I know. And soon you will know what Obama and I know. What Obama fears most is that I search for the truth not because I am associated with McCain (I am not) or because I am a partisan Republican (I am not a right-winger). Rather I search for the truth for the sake of the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I took an oath as an 18 year old to defend the Constitution of the United States from its enemies.
Barack Obama is an enemy of the Constitution. He is using tens of millions of dollars in clandestine campaign cash from unknown sources to stage an electoral coup d’etat in our nation. That is why I keep fighting for the truth.
Barack Obama has been lying to the American people. And his Big Lie is about to be exposed.
Now that his secrets are on the verge of being revealed he has panicked and suspended his campaign to visit Hawai’i. Do you believe Obama’s explanation for the sudden trip?
Or do you believe me?
Do you believe the smear merchants at the New York Times? Or my truthful words on Sean Hannity’s America?
If Barack Obama is defeated, he will have two people to blame: me and Sean Hannity.
It doesn’t get any better than this.
Stay tuned for High Noon in Honolulu.
Yard signs are not allowed in my area.
I see no bumper stickers on cars. You wouldn’t even know there was an election coming up.

Great Idea!
There is going to be three of us so three posters.
I will be taking pics.
This 527 pac is doing its job. I am getting information overload from them and have donated to their efforts as well. As far as the economy in my area—greater Houston, TX—last weekend when I was out passing out McCain-Palin stickers, pins, and flyers, the traffic was heavy (Saturday). The malls were full and intersections leading into the malls were backed up. I mentioned to my buddies that it looked like the Friday After Thanksgiving Christmas Shopping Day. Sunday, it was more on the quiet side, probably due to the NFL afternoon games and other stay home activities. The weather was fab! Below is the article from the 527 I mentioned at the beginning of my post. It is long BUT GOOD.
An urgent message from our Newsmax Sponsor, The Republican National Trust PAC
Dear Newsmax Reader:
“Joe the plumber” has a secret plan to destroy Barack Obama.
If you believe the media, Joe is a sinister, McCain-supporting Republican of the Reagan type — he is a true threat to the “Anointed One” — Barack Obama — and his chances of becoming president of the United States.
This sounds almost like a make-believe story, but it’s true. The media has been seeking to decapitate Joe the plumber.
Why? Because he’s an ordinary American who has a dream of business success for himself and his family.
One day, Joe woke up and suddenly realized that Barack Obama is going to punish him with brutal taxes.
Just by coincidence — and I know Chris Matthews and Katie Couric will never believe it was simply a coincidence — Joe met Barack Obama as Obama passed through his Ohio neighborhood.
When Joe challenged Obama with a tough question — something the press has not done during the past two years — the Anointed One wilted.
How dare Joe want to make and keep his own money? The nerve of this man to want to be a success in a small business!
As Obama put it, shouldn’t Joe want to help him “spread the wealth around?”
With that one remark, Obama’s disguise as a moderate crumbled.
At the National Republican Trust Political Action Committee (PAC), we are working to remove Obama’s disguise as a moderate once and for all.
Dick Morris, the famous Fox News analyst has praised the National Republican Trust for our work and says we can change this election.
Here’s what Dick said: “The National Republican Trust is a very effective organization that can make a huge difference on Election Day.”
That’s why we are going directly to folks like you and millions of Americans via the Internet, cable, and broadcast TV.
We are telling the unvarnished truth about Obama, exposing his out-and-out lies.
You Can Help Us Expose Barack Obama — Go Here Now
Here are just three of Obama’s biggest lies:
Obama Lie No. 1 — I will tax just the rich.
There is no such thing as a tax on just the rich. Taxes on wealthy people affect everyone.
Remember, Obama defines anyone making over $90,000 a year as “rich.”
Joe the plumber discovered that Obama thinks Joe’s rich too. Under Obama, he won’t be able to hire new employees and grow his business.
Joe’s not alone. Obama says he’ll strip away the FICA cap at $90,000 for every worker. That means every dollar you earn over that amount, you’ll pay 7 percent!
Obama Lie No. 2 — I want to give a tax cut
to the middle class.
Baloney!
Obama says he will let the Bush tax cuts expire. That’s an automatic 5 percent (maximum) tax increase on almost all taxpayers.
Plus middle class folks pay capital gains taxes. Obama has said he wants to almost double them from a low of 15 percent to almost 30 percent.
He wants to hike the dividend tax, and he also has promised taxes on gas and energy.
Obama also wants to dramatically increase the estate tax, which had almost disappeared. There goes your idea of sharing your wealth with your kids in the future.
Obama Lie No. 3 — I want to make America
more secure.
Another outright lie.
In an age when crazies like Iran’s Ahmadinejad are building ballistic missiles and promise to “destroy” the United States and Israel, Obama has promised to gut the missile defense program created by President Reagan.
“I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems,” Obama said.
He has promised to cut “tens of billions” of dollars from the Defense Department. In an effort to make us more “secure,” Obama plans to disarm us.
In the age of 9/11 can we afford such a radical Leftist in the White House?
No, we can’t.
Help the National Republican Trust PAC Tell the Truth About Obama — Go Here Now
Obama is not just a danger to our economy, with his plans to raise taxes and spend $800 billion in new programs.
He is a radical out to reshape America beyond recognition.
He is so radical he even backed driver’s licenses for illegal aliens — even though such a move would help future terrorists move freely in the United States.
Even Hillary Clinton opposed his radical plan.
But Obama not only touted such a plan running for president, he pushed for giving illegals driver’s licenses as a state senator in Illinois.
He is also the most pro-abortion candidate in the history of the country. In 2001, as a state legislator in Illinois, he opposed a bill to protect live-born children — children actually born alive! He was the only Illinois senator to speak out against the bill.
He opposes gun rights. He has long history of trying to deny ordinary citizens access to guns.
He originally backed Washington D.C.’s total ban on private handguns — a ban that was overturned. The NRA rated him an “F” on gun positions and says he is one of the most dangerous anti-gun politicians in the nation.
Never forget that Obama is a Harvard-educated elitist. To him, we Americans are simply “bitter” and he has mocked us saying “[they] cling to their guns and their religion.”
Support the National Republican Trust PAC’s Campaign to Expose Obama — Go Here Now
Exposing the Truth
Hillary Clinton was late in recognizing the threat Obama posed to her campaign, but once she did, her strategy worked.
When Hillary exposed Obama publicly, her campaign saw a major turnaround.
Hillary won every major state primary in the nation with the sole exception of Obama’s home state of Illinois.
And even though Obama was “anointed” by the media and Democratic elites, Hillary went on to win eight of the last 10 Democratic primaries.
Finally, McCain is fighting back — just like Hillary did. His poll numbers have improved.
But Obama is spending huge amounts of cash in the swing states.
That’s why we need your help. To go into these states and tell the American public the truth about Obama.
Make no mistake about it: If we let Americans know the truth about Obama, John McCain can win this election!
But we must employ Hillary Clinton’s strategy.
We must expose Obama for the dangerous radical he is.
Send a Donation Today to Help Our Cause — Go Here Now
You Can Make a Difference
This is why the National Republican Trust PAC is already implementing a “shock and awe” strategy against Obama in key states.
We are taking out powerful television ads, Internet ads, and other communications to inform Americans about the dangers posed by Barack Obama.
We plan to target key states that can make a difference — but we need your help to do it.
As a political action committee, we can accept up to $5,000 in donations per contributor.
A $5,000 donation can help us saturate a key market for a full day with television ads.
But if you can’t do the full amount, even $2,500 or $1,000 or $500 — any amount you can afford will help.
Stop and think how much Obama may cost you and your family in new taxes over the next four years alone: $50,000, $75,000, $100,000 or even more.
Your donation today may actually save you much more in the years to come.
Please help today — Donate by Going Here Now
It will most certainly help our great nation.
Thank you.
Yours for America,

Tuesday, October 21:
• Tale of the Tape: Shocking radio interview with Bill Ayers surfaces from 2002 when he was working with Obama. What did he say and will it hurt Obama’s campaign?
TOPIC: Economics in the PNW
The economy in the Pacific Northwest. Sigh. Not like this is a new subject out here. We COULD (are capable of) having a Booming timber industry but things on federal lands have been tied up in lawsuits for so long, no hope is in sight.
Fortunately forestry on state lands continues as it should, and so some schools have funding and some local communities are OK. Because Oregon has some of the most productive forestlands (i.e., SOIL for growing TREES) in the WORLD. In the WORLD, PUMA’s. Please believe me since my original college degree was in forestry.
So yeah, we COULD have a much BETTER economy “If Only.” If only what, you ask?
The forests out here are very overstocked = prone to insects & disease = Unhealthy.
I’m a liberal and I used to like to shock all of my liberal friends by telling them that the Best Thing (only thing) good about George Bush was that his advisers alerted him to the backlog of basless appeals to timber sales and his staff went about trying to unlock the timber wars by earnestly making things possible to do thinnings.
So that was the One Good Thing Bush did. But he didn’t do very much of it.
I’ll cut to the chase & answer the question posted up top.
~ ~ ~
Things I have seen in our Local Economy:
* Fewer people in the stores
* Concerts not selling out
* More clothes on sale at Macy’s & fewer shoppers buying them
* More homes for sale (many more)
* Next door neighbor lost his job & house on the market for 5 mos now
Oh yeah, and:
* Used to be that homes for sale had flyers out front with the PRICE on them; now they leave the price off = “open for discussion.” Pretty bad.
* People in the supermarkets (& me sometimes) look like they are stopping and staring at every purchase before they throw it into the cart.
Sorry for the long post, you got me started!

I would love for this API story to be true, but my gut says it’s a hoax. Jeff Schreiber, at America’s Right, is in daily contact with Philip Berg and at this point to believes that it is a hoax too.
IF Fox News is really taking a look at it, (which I doubt), then Fox will be 100% sure of it’s accuracy before they report it. I still believe that the whole story is bogus and it’s purpose was to distract anti-Obama peeps and make them look like fools.
Again, I will be happy to admit that I am wrong if it’s the real deal.
This from Jeff’s blog -

Postings seem to have slowed down here now, so I’m asking those still on the blog to reread my post #314 and let me know their thoughts. I have posted these kinds of thought questions before and never get any replies. Does anyone have an opinion on why BO is going to see grandma?

The general consensus is that it’s a cover up for a BC issue. Most believe it has nothing to do w/ grandma since he usually has nothing to do with her anyway.

#402BigCatLover….I know this may sound harsh, but my immediate reaction is to “finish her off” or “shut her up” in some way. He does have a past record of shutting people up one way or another. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear she had passed while he was there. That may seem like an extreme view, it probably is but that is what my gut is telling me.

Thanks for replying but, how is it a cover up for the bc issue. My point is too get people to think a little deeper and speculate on the details on what BO is up to.
Information regarding Sarah Palin and she is fighting back at the MSM. I just ordered the book. If it has been mentioned, I over looked it. But for those who don’t know about it, here is the information.

“My friends and fellow Americans, I am very pleased and very privileged to introduce to you . . . Gov. Sarah Palin of the great State of Alaska.”
With those words Senator John McCain electrified the nation and shocked the political world by tapping the relatively-unknown Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate.
Now, the major media is in full overdrive to smear and rewrite the accomplishments of this courageous young woman and rising Republican star.
But who is the real Sarah Palin?
She is more than a former beauty queen, conservative politician, family advocate, hockey mom with “lipstick” and moose-hunting NRA lifetime member.
She is a true reformer who took on the political and business establishment in Alaska and won.
And she may make history as the first female vice president of the United States.
In Sarah, the first biography of Palin, author Kaylene Johnson draws upon personal interviews with Palin herself, her family, and closely placed sources to explore her private and public life. Sarah also includes 16 pages of Sarah Palin’s most personal photos!
In Sarah, you will find out:
the real role her faith has played in family life.
the surprising event that turned her from hockey mom into a full blown political activist.
what she did on the Alaska commission overseeing natural resources that stunned everyone — Republicans and Democrats alike
how she took on the incumbent Republican governor and beat him
why she decided to make her family so much part of her public life
why she is hugely popular with approval ratings above 75% among Democrats and Republicans
how she became known as a “pit bull with lipstick”
and much, much more.
Get This Book FREE — Go Here Now
This is a powerful book about a very ordinary person who has done extraordinary things.
Inspirational? Yes. But a must read for anyone who wants to know the real Sarah Palin, the lady who may someday be President.
The author says: “I had watched Palin’s rise to the state’s highest office with interest. Jaded as I was about politics in general, the notion that people could take government back into their own hands renewed my faith in the democratic process. It was an opportunity to learn and write about a fascinating woman who made Alaskan history by being the first woman and the youngest governor ever elected.”
Find out how you can make a difference — read Sarah Palin’s story!

397 hillstheone I can relate to that. I worked in forestry for 25+ years, mostly in Oregon, but also in California, Washington, Idaho and Montana.
I was going for a degree in Forestry in Eugene in the 70’s but was warned by professors that such work was going to dry up.
I believe that greed was the thing that did in Forestry. We were close to achieving our goals of sustained yield forestry, when someone got the bright idea to export.
Slaughter is the only word I can think of for what happened to our prime timberland. For 20 some years I worked mainly in Reforestation. but that ended with the invasion of illegals, mostly Hispanics who would do the work cheaper than the legals (us) could do it.
I used to hate the sierra Club with a passion, but the environmental damage from that slaughter will take generations to repair.
I would say it’s a fair estimate that I have planted at least 1 1/2 million trees with my own hands and anoter 50 million running planting crews.
i would just like to say for what its worth, I wish Hillary was on the ticket. It sure would be hard for me not to vote for her. I am rep could never vot for bo. agianst my moral code. but if it was hillary i would cross party lines to vote for her.

How many? I can name at least 20 in my immediate family without even stopping to think.

…
Thank you mountainsong and Anna7000
That’s what I meant when I’ve asked the question:
– What are some powerful, hard-hitting lines or retorts or talking points (“soundbites”) we can use to convince people to not vote for BO (and vote for McCain instead)?
From mountainsong:
“Biden: If anyone doubts whether BO is fit to be CIC, just ask Colin Powell.
Me: If anyone doubts whether Iraq has WMD, just ask Colin Powell.
- Also Anna7000 has contributed a very good one in post 368.
….
- Here are some from me RE: the Ayers issue:
Terrorism is one of our big threats today… How can we elect someone (to be our Commander In Chief) who has hung out for years with an unrepentant terrorist?!
The only difference between Bill Ayers and Timothy McVeigh is the death toll!
Imagine if McCain had been associated with someone who had bombed abortion clinics… The media would be all over it and he’d be un-electable!”
–
(I’ve got a bigger list related to Ayers & BO’s radical friends and I’m compiling what y’all have been contributing… which I’ll post).
….
Let’s continue brainstorming and sharing more good lines … powerful soundbites you’ve heard or come up with… good retorts to those pro-BO soundbites that we’re being bombarded with… pithy clinchers that can make Undecideds perk up and twice about voting for BO.
– Make it easy for us to find them… Don’t hide them in a wordy post… make them stand out, like by using a heading on your post, etc.
….
Cat lover
I thought Bo was going to see his grandmother to delay the game. He is up in the polls and the more he talks the more likely he gaffes. (Joe the Plumber)
But then I hear MO is going to take his place on the trail.
We all know she gaffes.
So I dunno whats up, or why he is putting it off? If she is so ill why not go see her now?
#407 girlsrule
So your reaction is that she knows the truth and he is afraid that she will talk? So she isn’t actually refusing to cover for him but might expose him somehow? Thanks.
#400 mountainsong
UN believable!!! Now they are saying that ’socialist’ is an old code word used to describe blacks and are coming down on McCain/Palin for it. That’s nuts!!!
=========================
And soon someone will come out and say that “@$$hole” is code for a person who is 1/2 white, 1/8 Kenyan and 3/8 Middle Eastern. The reality is: You can take the lipstick off an @$$hole but it’s still an @$$hole.
#418bcl…that is what my gut is telling me.
#400 mountainsong
Don’t forget the words idiot, moron and fucktard … they’re code too.
Yep, I’m a RAAAACIST.

403 girlsrule As I’ve said before…..I believe that, if it wasn’t already, then Colin Powell’s “endorsement” of Obama made it a racial thing. Until then, one could argue, but he removed all doubt. and i’m far from the only one who thinks that, too.
I’m with you…I’m fed up with it, had enuff, and Powell and Obama and their ‘minions’ can all go piss up a rope.

That’s what makes his going puzzling – the fact that his is delaying the trip.

ARIO:
I forgot what your instrument is, the one you are going to play in a competition. Was it the SAX? I started reading your posts with more attention when you were carrying on a converstation (was it with Dances) concerning Vivaldi and Mozart. I used to play a Vivaldi violin concerto for two violins and of course some Mozart concertos as well. That was in another life.
#414 notfollowinthepiedpiper:
I think a lot – that’s precisely why Obama/Acorn are registering the living, the dead, and everything in between.
This excerpt is from one dang scary email I just got from Hillary:
“Sixty is the magic number. If we reach 60 Democrats in the Senate, then the days of Republican obstruction are over. With Barack Obama and Joe Biden in the White House and a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate, there’s nothing we can’t accomplish.
But we can’t reach 60 if these three Democrats don’t win their extraordinarily close races: Mark Begich up in Alaska, Jeff Merkley in Oregon, and Mark Udall in Colorado. ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So there we have it PUMAs…. marching orders straight from Hillary’s mouth. DEFEAT Mark Begich up in Alaska, Jeff Merkley in Oregon, and Mark Udall in Colorado, so the DONC doesn’t get complete unbridled control of the country!
Guy on fox tv saying that BO is up by 10 points in the Wall Street Journal/NBC poll. Well, consider the source!!
Gees my dh just texted me from a restaurant in the northeast ( sad I can never keep track of where he is traveling) I’ll ask later.
“Sitting next to a man and a woman at the restaurant discussing politics. Palin is an embarrasment and needs to stick to her pampered chef parties and selling tupperware (said by the woman). The woman said she wasn’t sexist, but a mother should never even want to be VP if she has kids. I’m in the heart of an ultra blue state.”
I told him to let me talk to her!!! I wish I was there grrr
#402 BigCatLover—I see it as two fold—Sympathy factor and keeping the attention on “HIM.” ME ME ME. I think he is physically and mentally bankrupt and it is showing. He is going to Hawaii to get the SPA treatment and surround himself with others that will be glorifying him 24/7. He needs to look his best and appear equipped to “SEAL THE DEAL” on that 30 minutes of Prime Time TV. By the way—WHO IS PAYING FOR THIS? HIM, the DNC (which I guess is the same as HIM) or US? Wasn’t he in Hawaii back in July? I think the BC he is going to bring back and present to “the followers” during his 30 minutes of Prime Time will be the final version with every t crossed and i dotted. 3 months to make a fake BC pass the scrutiny of experts? That sounds about right.

#429 Jeremy
Yeah, the sympathy vote reason occurred to me too, but geez that is desperate.
It never dawn on me I would be involve in something personal. My asian friend called me, her daughter received her absentee ballot. Her friends are telling her to vote for NObama because its the coolest thing to do. I went to her place right away, didn’t even take the time to dress up properly (jogging pants and sweat shirt) and talk to her daughter. My friend can’t believe peer pressure being put on her daughter by NObama supporters. Her daughter voted for straight Republican ticket. I told her if her friends ask her who she voted for, to tell them she voted for Mickey Mouse.

I lived on Benevenue Avenue, off Alcatraz…
patty Hearst’s house was like two blocks away.
Didnt we already have this conversation? The Buttercup on College Ave, etc.?
——————————————-
No, one late night several months ago – the Berkeley people were blogging (you/BillieJo and Blue Kendal?) but by the time I posted I think you all had gone to bed! So we didn’t touch bases. Small world isn’t it? Benevenue sounds so familiar. My(now) husband was living just down the road from where Patty Hearst was living. I’ll ask him when he comes home. Perhaps we can compare notes after Nov 4th?
You know I’m an exhiled democrat registered independent. I pretty much believe this very well could be a stunt paid for by the Obama McCainh to take attention away from the real issue’s in John McCain’s favor right now… The arrogant remark Obama made about an average blue collar worker, who just happens to be a plumber by trade. Whether or not he is in an apprentice program or a journey man, the meer fact is he works damn hard for his money. Joe has a DREAM, that one day he just might be able to own his own business…
What’s the difference between Joe’s DREAM and Martin Luther King’s DREAM of “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be
judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”
I seriuosly Doubt MLK would have seen Rezko, Ayers, Reverend Wright, Father Phlger as having merit of collecting the citizen of the year award…. Quite frankly I have to say that the list of Cohorts that have fallen from Obama trails deseve any respect…Martin Luther King was about peacefull protest, he knew that to behave in a less then honorable way would not do the civil rights movement any good…. I really dislike how most people who support Obama treat those who disagree with them like they are worthless, I can assure you that MLK did not tolerate negative, vengeful people regardless of thier color….
I have included a list of negative character traits… I could search thge blog sphere and find an example of most of these flwas and I can pretty much say Martin Luther King would not have found the individules would not have had his respect. Because he new that these traits enabled the cycle of pitting one person against another person or a person against an idealism…

I’m pretty sure you’ll find arrogant and judgemental in the list above and the arrogance Obama conveyed the day after the last debate in questioning McCains loyalty to “Joe The Plumber”. And Joe’s 250,000.00 DREAM to one day rise above the low class 40,000.00 dollars a year job. Obama’s mockery was totally uncalled for…
“Republican obstruction”???? Give me a break!!! I guess there’s nothing obstructive about a democratic congress. Stop whinning, Hillary.

Pumas, I’m back from a McCain booster outing- again.
And again I was wearing my Hillary Tee shirt.
QUESTION- Those, like me, who have been going out boostering for McCain/Palin: Do you see the atmosphere changing? I’m talking about Campaign fatigue… it’s been going on too long. I’ve been doing this since about 4 weeks after Murphy started this blog.
People are remembering the promises Obama made during the primaries, now he’s saying totally the opposite. People are noticing this, are offended by it.
They’re also noticing that McCain is consistant.
In all this time I haven’t spoken with ONE person that’s been polled. Also, since the ’socialism’ topic has come up, those I speak to are more wary of O. Also lots being turned off by the attacks on Palin.
Is this just in my area?
I haven’t been called a racist in a few days, not that I miss it, but it has been pretty standard.
What are the experiences of other PUMA McCain boosters?
Oh, that’s right~~~they are related, aren’t they?
So funny someone just knocked on my door(a politician) oops big mistake.
poor guy.
He says (while pointing at my McCain yard sign) thats funny my paper work says two democrats live here.
I say yeah two Puma democrats that already voted for McCain. So he keeps staring at my chest and I don’t have a bra on and I’m thinking WTF? Then he says oh I see you have a Hillary shirt on, did you vote for any democrats?
I said yeah just not on top. Then I vented all of my frustrations that I have with the DNC
He couldn’t walk away fast enough.

On Colin Powell:
How could this be good for Obama’s supporters?
How could they possibly forget POWELL’S WHOLE CASE for going to war? It just does not make any sense how they can wash over HIS ROLE – Congress took HIS WORD ON “HIS FACTS” PRESENTED!
Now, Obama will “definately put Powell him in some role in his administration”?

API Story
The MO tape is irrelevant as far as this election. This race comes down to the two candidates and not their wives. BO has a personal, social, and political history and viewpoint that is alien to most Americans.
The challenge is the MSM is shutting down any voices that are opposed to BO. Despite their unlawful activities, the public is fed up with being called racists just for speaking their opinions or thoughts. This is why I believe that McCain will win.
There is a lot of anecdotal evidence that long time Democrats, Asians, Latinos, working class Americans, CEO’s and others are voting for McCain. If you recall the last two debates, the independent voters in the focus groups were afraid to show their support for McCain.
Go Pumas…………
#446 wontbackdown
Obama’s supporters don’t even know who his running mate is! Remember the Harlem street interviews where they said they agreed with his choice of PALIN as a running mate? Most of them probably don’t even know who Powell is, MUCH LESS his political history.

Here in SCA all the bussiness are really bad.
Costco, Macy’s, Wal-Mart you just name it, even the restaurants.
The only store is always packed, 99 cents. These stores are selling even vegetables.
I read an article a few days ago, where states the housing crisis in CA is about 40% of all the country.
Unemployment is high, the wildfires are not helping,etc…So I guess CA is the state in worst financial situation.
Living in a city of majority of Hispanics and whites, last week I noticed 5 or 6 AA cashiers in Wal-Mart. Today, same thing only AA employees. Never seen so many in this store before.
BTW This afternoon, at 6 (PT) Jorge Ramos from Univision is having an interview with Sarah P.
#441 Pm on 10.21.08 at 7:12 pm
I recieved a call last week inquering as to who I was supporting and why? I told them I was voting for John McCain, They asked me when I had made that decision? I said since June 3rd 2008. They asked me if I would be voting for Senator Smith ( who at one time I thought was to arrogant. His son took his own life a year or so ago. I don’t know why but Gordon Smith appers to have some humility, as does John McCain)… The caller asked me if I was sure of my decsion, or was there a chance I might change my mind. I said I was absolutley sure of my decsion and there was absolutely no chance of changing my mind….
Rupert Murdoch owns the WSJ and has endorsed Cupcake. I don’t believe the polls because of the initimidation factor by BO, the MSM, the DP, and his supporters. This racism card is backfiring and as other Pumas have stated this is a silent election.
Massive fraud was taking place in the caucuses while we were rooting for Hillary. The only way that BO wins is by cheating and the GE is totally different.

Anna7000, JoanneGreco
Anna… RE: your post yesterday with the letter for Joanne to submit to FL newspapers… I didn’t see it till later in the evening. You mentioned that maybe I could edit the letter… I copied it to try to fit it in my schedule, but I’m just very busy now with a project & deadline and I was probably too late anyway. I think it’s a pretty good letter and I saw that Joanne liked it.
Something to note is that most newspapers have a word limit of between 150 to 250 words, and usually reject letters that go over that. That one had 370 words… so by editing & cutting it down a bit (if it’s not too late) it should be fine.
Also, you had a question regarding the difference between “Hispanics” and “Latinos” (the terms):
Generally, Hispanic refers to all Spanish-speaking people, whether from Spain or Latin America. Latinos refers to Latin Americans, esp those living in the United States.
…
About Asian voters, majority of us are moderates leaning right than left. In fact a lot of Asians are Republicans. My cousins living in California went back to the Republican Party after Hillary gave up her fight. We don’t like the idea of NObama of more taxes, we don’t like government cheese; we’ll work our fingers to the bone and pay our taxes but don’t tax us to death. My cousin living in San Jose, just laid off 5 workers from her company. She and her hubby is getting ready for the worst and that is depression if the American people are stupid enough to vote for THAT ONE!
Oh GIVE ME A BREAK!! Will they make up their mind… is she a bad mother for neglecting her children…. or is she a bad mother for taking her children with her?? She’s damned is she does and damned if she doesn’t. NO PLEASING the new and NOT improved DEMOCRAPS! They are beyond desperate! Lets’ talk about Ayers, Wright….oh, never mind, we’ve tried that.

Shasta2001, Pm, and Sunshinelvr-
Thankyou all. hmmm, disappointing development.
Last week he came out with a show where he said he decided that, out of the 4 candidates, he thought Sarah Palin was best fit to be President.
Then he went on to “tell us how he got there”.
It was absolutely fantastic and mirrored what I’ve been thinking about her as a politician for a long time.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they let him go just for that reason. pretty radical these days to come out on American TV and announce why you believe Palin would be the best President out of all of them!
It would have been great for her to have an advocate like him – or any advocate at all! – these last two weeks before the election.
wow, the american media is a hairs breadth away from being completely worthless.

I’ll be delivering some to the Repub Campaign Headquarters and distributing them myself, too. Thank you, thank you (((( Freddie ))))

Regarding AOL, I just went over there to see what was going on the straw poll. I haven’t voted on it for a couple of weeks. Now, you have to create an AOL screen name, meaning an account, to vote on the straw poll….and not to leave out, the page is blazing with the “Oracles” website link. Go figure. Anything coming out of AOL has NOBama’s “stamp of approval” on it. Credibility=NONE.

Who should we ask about why he’s going to HI? Nobody knows. The press says she’s ill; pundits say it’s to look less elitist now that Joe the Plumber and Sarah Palin have achieved success with the “regular middle class” people.
I’ve been here less, too. Sometimes it’s busyness: Freddie Flyers, school, kids, and work. I have also felt relieved that M/P ticket is more aggressive and I feel a teeney bit less frustrated. I’m in Allentown area and I see lots of M/P signs. Yesterday I saw a “Another Democrat for McCain” sign! I have never seen Dems cross and be proud of it like this. Hope is alive in PA! Go McCain/Palin!

Thank You for your support
my favorite quote from the greta thread (#475)
“When it came time for choosing someone how Barack Obama just
couldn’t bring himself to pick the woman who got 18 million votes in his
primary and that seems to be too familiar a story isn’t it? How it is
for so many American women that the qualifications are there, but for
some reason the promotion never comes. There is always some long
explanation for why they got passed over or some unseen barrier, some
excuse and that’s just one of the things I so admire about John McCain
he is not someone who makes excuses.”

Never forget he is a Chicago politician and they are all lower than the lowest….
I don’t believe for a minute that he is a citizen. He will make this all go away I am sure. He is rotten to the core and will sell this country right to the Arabs.

I agree!
MSM
The media acts as if the public has short term memory loss. NoHillaryNoVote posted a comment last week that reminded me of their deceitfulness in this campaign. Whenever a story hits that is positive about McCain, the press rewrites it. She had mentioned that the AP did that regarding the debate performance.
CNN had a focus group that stated BO won the debate but they were voting for McCain because of the trust factor. That segment wasn’t reaired and it was not posted on their website.
The media is in the tank for BO. They may be able to erase the media content but they can’t control our votes, ideas, or thoughts. BO is bad for America.
Go Pumas…………
# 487 Puff,
I concur.
With no birth certificate, how did BO get a passport?

So does the Fargo Forum. We need to remember the group(s) that Todd Palin was speaking for today. These are the “quiet and silent protectors of the votes and views.” However, they will speak loudly on November 4.

Todd Palin and Colorado Sportsmen Release Statements on Eve of Second Rifle Season for Deer in Plains
October 21, 2008
CENTENNIAL, CO — The McCain-Palin campaign today released the following statements to mark the first day of the rifle season for deer in the Plains, which begins on Tuesday, October 21st, and ends on Wednesday, October 29th.
Todd Palin: “There are a lot of similarities between Alaska and Colorado: pioneering spirits, mountains, hunting, fishing and a general love for the great outdoors. Sarah and I agree that one of the most precious things in family life is to pass on the passion for the great outdoors from one generation to the next. Americans’ ability to enjoy the great outdoors would be jeopardized if America elects the candidate with a flunking grade from the NRA.”
Cory Gardner: “To mock those of us from small towns as ‘bitter’ who ‘cling to guns and religions’ not only shows Obama completely out of touch with rural Coloradans, who pride themselves in their strong work ethic, pioneer spirit and individual freedom. Obama’s comments hit closer to home on the day that marks the first day of rifle season for deer here in the plains: our way of life in the great outdoors would be jeopardized if America elects the most anti-gun ticket in Presidential history.”
State Representative Cory Gardner represents the 63rd District since 2007. As a fifth generation Coloradan, he vows to fight for principles of life, property rights, and the Second Amendment.
Aimee Rathburn: “As hunters prepare for the first day of rifle season for deer in the Eastern Plains, Senator Obama should answer why he disparaged all hunters as he mocked Governor Sarah Palin, as a ‘Governor, mother, moose-shooter.’ Real Colorado sportsmen should know the best way to prepare for Barack Obama’s visit would be to hide their guns.”
OOPS…my above post about Quiet Riot singing “We’re Not Gonna Take It” was wrong, it was a song by Twisted Sister. Not only was I showing my age on the song but my memory is going as well. Anyway, I think we need to adopt this as our theme song on this last leg of the campaign season. I think it totally sums up our attitudes at this point:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJIF5mJH6y0&feature=related
Here are the lyrics:
Oh We’re Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain’t Gonna Take It
oh We’re Not Gonna Take It Anymore
we’ve Got The Right To Choose And
there Ain’t No Way We’ll Lose It
this Is Our Life, This Is Our Song
we’ll Fight The Powers That Be Just
don’t Pick Our Destiny ’cause
you Don’t Know Us, You Don’t Belong
oh We’re Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain’t Gonna Take It
oh We’re Not Gonna Take It Anymore
oh You’re So Condescending
your Gall Is Never Ending
we Don’t Want Nothin’, Not A Thing From You
your Life Is Trite And Jaded
boring And Confiscated
if That’s Your Best, Your Best Won’t Do
oh…………………
oh…………………
we’re Right/yeah
we’re Free/yeah
we’ll Fight/yeah
you’ll See/yeah
oh We’re Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain’t Gonna Take It
oh We’re Not Gonna Take It Anymore
My cousin in California called me today and asked if I was voting for BO (I am in Chicago). When I told her no, I was leaning toward McCain, she called me a racist!
I was blown away!!
What is this all coming to?
I am locked and loaded for Nov 4th. It will be bad no matter which way the election comes out.
PUMA’s – Why the heck do they have early voting 2 – 4 weeks before election? Why can’t they keep it close to the election day?
Smells and tastes fishy? Like the BOTS!
Is it God?…Is it Superman? If they’re trying to down play this narcisist’s deity complex, they missed it here!

#499 Puff – It happened to me. Though I showed my relative the sex education you tube by OBLahablah a few months back, this week this person came down heavy on Palin. I picked up my talking points and challenged my relative with the volume to match until the call was cut on the other side. I would care less be hung up on as long as I know I am right (and I know I am ). So no worries. The ‘I told you so’ will happen soon.

Manifest Obama Video: Cultish New Agers Envision an Obama Presidency
Here is yet another Barack Obama video with cultish overtones. It was filmed in the Asheville, NC area which makes sense since that city has become sort of a hippie center in the Southeast region. Participants in this video are encouraged to envision a President Obama. Here are the New Age slogans flashing on the screen with people looking like they are the midst of a rapture lovingly repeating, “President Barack Obama,” as New Age type music is played:
Between now and November 4…
Let’s spend one minute a day…
Envisioning Barack Obama…
As our President…
Prepare your heart to fill with hope…
Prepare your mind to embrace the change…
Envision Barack victorious on election night…
…Taking the oath of office…
On Inauguration Day…
Believe that this great moment in American history is already a reality…
Say the words to yourself…
To your family…
To your friends and neighbors…
Say it to the world…
Your vision is a sacred trust…
You are a sanctuary of a sacred vision for a renewed America…
Envision it…
Say it…
Feel it…
Believe it…
Make it our reality…
Manifest Obama, America!

I always thought something was fishy that time someone hacked BO passport files. I think Hillary and McCains were hacked too. Never heard much about what happened on that.
#501 notfollowingthepiedpiper–
Yahoo000000000000! They “paid in full” by the NOBama/NOBiden camp all over them. Again, if there is a 10 point gap, where is the happy dancing in the streets? None in my streets and McCain-Palin is visually growing by 10 -15 percent every day. They can print anything they want and spin it in every direction, but it does not make it crediable or true. That is just my take on this fellow PUMAs. I am not going to go down or get down by Bambi’s games and tactics. Not happening here.
ElyLosAngeles, me too.
Being a rebel is not for the faint of heart.
#493 Stoney-That’s what is frustrating-he supposedly does have one which was issued in Hawaii 4(?) days after his birth. People that have kids at home get this type of document. There’s NO hospital record. Convenient? The question is, was it received by fraud if he wasn’t actually born in Hawaii. Like in Kenya!

That just gives me the willies. haunting…can’t shake it.

Talking Points
Original suit from Berg V Obama in Federal court; Steve Marquiz (kez) modified suit to target WA Sec. of State (chief elections official for WA) to demand WA SoS receive copy of BC; I modified Marquiz v Reed for CA and figured out which changes had to be made so this could be filed in each state; recruiting efforts for localizing to other states has been done through obamacrimes.com
The document is a demand through lawsuit against each state’s chief elections official to get a copy of the Vault BC from Hawaii and any additional hospital documents attesting to Obama’s birth.
Since our federal laws are national, the majority of the document is the same for all states. Each state does require some effort to localize to state statutes and chief elections official is properly named. The complaint template is designed specifically to allow for easy identification of what needs changed and so that it can be filed in most jurisdictions.
The work needed to research for each state can be done by an average person in a day and probably filed the next day. What you need to know is who is your state-wide elections official, how are candidates placed on the ballot, and what legal mechanism must the candidate do to provide the state-wide elections official with credentials (proof of US citizenship by natural birth).
States with prepared documents are CAlifornia, Texas, and Florida. Ohio is pending and very murky. I do not have any other states prepared – and Washington State document is not court ready. I am going to ask for volunteers to help prepare documents for other states so that we can get as many as quickly as possible. There is obviously work for all states and some states may deny based on local time rules as the election is so very close upon us; it may be possible to get this going in every state by the end of the week.
If you are capable of producing a document even just for your state, I would be glad to host a copy at my own website for further redistribution to as many as possible.
It may very well be possible to get enough challenges filed that we not only grind this election to a halt, but that we succeed in removing Obama from those same ballots.
To join an existing filing you will need to provide your name, address, phone, and signature. This can be emailed to me for distribution to the person who is handling that state filing. I am making best effort to keep this organized so that we can surge individual states with existing filings.
Arizona Voters: I will be preparing your state’s document tonight, late. You have the biggest piece of the puzzle to force Obama’s hand. Your state requires a candidate to produce an affidavit of candidacy stating they meet USC qualifications. We can use this to corner Obama to validate his affidavit.
Ohio: Someone please get this filing started. I have a form that can be filed now. Please someone try and keep me posted.
Texas voters: Contact Steve Dallas \n This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ‘> dallasinsat@att.netThis e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to join with his suit. He want 100 people to sign on before filing it. Steve was wonderful enough to produce the Texas and Florida documents we so desperately needed to get this done.
Florida status: we need donations of $350 for filing fee. What we need is for as many people as possible to join in this one case so that it has greater standing because of a large number of people associating themselves with the case. If you want to join in any state, join the existing case. Washington and Utah have cases

thanks so much

I thought Bo was going to see his grandmother to delay the game. He is up in the polls and the more he talks the more likely he gaffes. (Joe the Plumber)
But then I hear MO is going to take his place on the trail.
We all know she gaffes.
So I dunno whats up, or why he is putting it off? If she is so ill why not go see her now?
********************
I think he is going to Hawaii specifically to speak to the Supreme Court of Hawaii requesting that they do not open his files to Andy Martin .
From Houston news site:
State elections officials and Republican and Democratic representatives said voters can fill out a straight-party ticket and then vote to support candidates from the other party for any race they want.
But there was more confusion surrounding the presidential race. An Internet rumor falsely suggested that those who vote a straight-party ticket will still have to cast a vote for president from that same party.
That’s simply not true. In fact, doing that will cancel out a voter’s pick for president.
(from comments with article)
In the report that aired on the 5:30 news, there was a county judged plastered with Obama buttons, clearly within 100 feet of the polling place. Is electioneering at polling places no longer illegal?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back to beating my head against the wall. Still trying to wake up from this nightmare. Sorry to be so cynical today.
517 Normapuma,
Never mind. The BO CNN always find a way to spin. I’m boycotting them and the MSM.
In my area, south suburbs of Chicago, McCain/Palin signs are everywhere in the upper class neighborhoods. These people probably do make over $250,000.00 a year & don’t want O and his taxes on them!
I see WAY more McCain/Palin signs than O signs.
I know people in my town who ARE democrats & are supporting the lower offices but NOT the “O”.
These are life-long dems & they say NO WAY to O.
Plus no one in our house has been polled nor have my neighbors whom I’ve spoken to.
That is odd, other years I get polled almost weekly!!
anybody hear from emme ? she was supposed to be sending out buttons and I have not seen her on the blog for a few days. anyone receive a button from her?
I get down sometimes, too. But I think the tide may be turning despite the polls. Gas prices have gone down and there’s been a little rebound in the markets, McCain/Palin have been able to identify with the middle class via Joe, the plumber, Biden’s big “internal crisis” gaffe…all going into the pot at the tail end here giving me some hope that the Independents and undecideds will consider a more sane vote. Think there is a real chance Nobo will be defeated.

Fish voting in Chicago!!
=====
Dead goldfish offered the vote in Illinois
CHICAGO – The only “agent of change” Princess ever supported was the person who freshened the water in her fishbowl.
So election officials in Chicago’s northern suburbs want to know why voter registration material was sent to the dead goldfish.
“I am just stunned at the level of people compromising the integrity of the voting process,” said Lake County Clerk Willard Helander, a Republican, who said she has spotted problems with nearly 1,000 voter registrations this year.
Beth Nudelman, who owned the fish, said Princess may have landed on a mailing list because the family once filled in the pet’s name when they got a second phone line for a computer.
“There was no fraud involved,” said Nudelman, a Democrat who supports Barack Obama. “This person is a dead fish.”
The paperwork sent to a “Princess Nudelman” likely came from the “Women’s Voices, Women Vote” project, which sent nearly 1 million mailings to Illinois households in August using a list that mistakenly included some pets, said Sarah Johnson, a spokeswoman for the not-for-profit group that encourages single women to vote.
The mailing list, purchased from a vendor, included names from warranties, magazine subscriptions and other sources, Johnson said. The group attempted to screen out obvious pet names.
“Fido’s not going to be left on there, but if a cat is named is Polly, she may be,” Johnson said. Princess could be a person’s name, she insisted. “I went to high school with two Princesses.”
Nudelman said the only address on the registration card was the Lake County clerk’s office. She said she wrote election officials a humorous note explaining why the fish was ineligible to vote.
The Illinois mailing generated 63,500 returned voter applications, Johnson said. Applicants were instructed to fill in a driver’s license number or the last four digits of their Social Security number so election officials would be able to validate their identity.
“We obviously don’t want to add more work for any election official,” Johnson said. “At the end of the day, our goal is same as theirs: To give as many people as possible the chance to make voices heard in our democracy.”
Steve Sturm, legal counsel for the Illinois State Board of Elections, said the mailing generated numerous complaints from residents throughout the state.
Lake County election officials contacted Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan’s office Monday afternoon, said spokeswoman Robyn Ziegler. The sheriff’s office and state’s attorney’s office were “already working on it,” she said.
The McCain-Palin campaign has lately raised questions about the voter registration practices of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. ACORN is accused of submitting false registration forms for some of the voters it has registered. The FBI has joined nearly a dozen states in investigating.
Women’s Voices has worked with ACORN in the past, but the August mailing “has nothing to do with” ACORN, Johnson said.

From Fox Forum:

http://foxforum.blogs.foxnews.com/2008/10/21/jmoody_1021/
“Catherine Herridge reported today something that shouldn’t have surprised me, but in fact did. And my surprise quickly turned to concern: Catherine reported on some online chatter from Islamic Web sites that has been intercepted and translated. Their conclusion: Al Qaeda is avidly following the US presidential race with an eye to its next attack.
The intelligence officials with whom Catherine talked told her that no matter which candidate becomes our 44th president, he will be dealing with an unrelenting desire by Al Qaeda to strike the US, as it did in 2001. One of its communiqués says the following about the coming month: “At that time the collapse will happen quickly and … then after the blow by Al Qaeda, God Willing, the United States will begin to disintegrate.”
The terrorists watching us from afar don’t get to vote, and they’ll keep trying to hit us no matter who’s in the White House. That doesn’t surprise me. But that doesn’t mean they don’t have their preferences. And knowing that is what concerns me.”

Lots of jobs in the Healthfield here in New Orleans and suburbs for the taking…LOTS…Come on down….I am serious! Jobs at all levels top to bottom….Rents are much higher than before Katrina ..but sales of houses of houses, redone, or not…have still not fallen to the level across the country..maybe because we had and still are in recovery in that area… and had our own versions of impact to housing market beginning 3 years ago. Have begun to see loan crunch but still not like the rest of the country..Regardless…if you are in any level of Healthfield..Lots of good jobs all over the place..We are not even close to what we need to recover the loss of people there because of Katrina.
WE IN MASS MUST SHOW THE LEADERSHIP TO ALL OTHER PUMA IN ALL OTHER STATES. WE MASS HAVE LOTS OF MEMBERS. MURPHY STARTED PUMA IN MASS. PLEASE ORGANIZE AND GET THIS FILED. I WANT OBAMA TO LOSE MASS. THAT WILL BE A MAJOR MOVE ON OBAMA.

THE CHOICE IS OURS. I SAY JUST DO IT.

See you pumas in the AM
Sue66 if 87% of Hillary’s voters say they are voting for Obama, I say:
I bet a good 5 to 10% of them are LYING! Let’s see how they ACTUALLY vote.
And even if it is a full 87% who go for BO, that means 13% of Hillary voters ARENT voting for him.
2.34 million voters!
That is WAY more than enough to swing the election, amd does not include the independents and bo voters who change their minds, dont show up etc.
Bush beat Kerry by 3,000,176 votes in 2004
and
Gore beat Bush by 543,895 votes. that’s right just 500 thousand votes.
I think 13% of Hillary voters still holding firm is a HUGE number.
(and p.s. I do think the number will be closer to 20%)

I have already sent him Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico. What other states would you like me to do?
It doesn’t take long to do them and I’d be happy to do more.
Jobs in New Orleans and Suburbs: Continued:Also still a very strong need for the traditional craft labor…carpenters, plumbers, etc. lots of ads there in paper all the time across industry..small and larger.
After I was forced to retire for health reasons, in 2004 I have continued everyday to read want ads…because I like to and always have…so I pass it along here.
Ok, nobody answered my question above… I guess that’s ok.. I’ll try to figure it out myself.
However, here’s a thought. Suppose that whoever wins the election is CLOSE. Then the legal eagles get involved. With all of the thousands (if not millions) of fraudulent registrations, what would happen do you suppose? The whole ELECTION might be thrown out because it might be impossible/difficult to find out which votes were from fraudulent registrations and which weren’t. HOW could they solve the dilemma short of throwing the whole election out? If the whole election is thrown out, then Pelosi would be acting president, right? Think about it….
#527 ROXY
Whew relief! Back on FOX. They’re reporting voter fraud in OH by people who no longer live in OH voting.
On the John McCain website, they have a “Tell us your story and you could be our next ad”. Anyone have a good story for them??
Why do they keep pushing supposed stats claiming that most everyone has fallen in line behind BO when he is quickly losing support? Read:

AP INVESTIGATION: Alaska funded Palin kids’ travel
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I heard this same crap on NPR today- I was screaming at the radio- what about all the kids that are left alone by their crack-head parents? Or here in Az where people leave their kids alone in stifling hot cars and they die or they wander into the backyard and drown in a pool. How dare any mother or father question Sarah about bringing her kids on the road. I have never heard anyone make a comment about a rock star bringing their kids on the road.
Unbelievable. Then, Madeline Albright was on- I did not hear it to the end but not one mention of Biden’s gaffe on sunday- to which I believe she responded yesterday in agreement.
I don’t get it people
Watch this and spread it around. Another reason why NOBama is going to Hawaii—the truth is being told and people are listening.

Yes, we have a huge economy here in CA and I think the fall is likely to be hard. A statistic I read the other day was that I believe it was 30% of foreclosures involve rentals so those poor people will suddenly be without a home. But we all have to hang in there and help one another the best we can. Re- your later post – don’t feel lonely – you have puma friends here – there is always someone on the blog ready to lift our spirits.
BTW what station is the Palin interview on? Thanks
I’m just taking the time to register and log in to let evryone know that there are people out here rooting you on. I’m basically a Libertarian…a social liberal and a fiscal conservative and am not registered with any party but I VOTE in every election, municipal through national.
Just so you know, I’m not a big HRC fan and would have worked against her…I’m not a big McCain fan either, but I sure am a fan of Palin!! At this time I would take HRC over a bushel of OB’s.
Don’t lose heart. If you’re feeling somewhat in the dumps go over to Wizbang and read Drummond’s take on the polls. He’s a stat freak and has taken the time to break down the internals. You might also ask yourself why McCain is in PA right now…he must know something.
Keep up the good work, with the class that you ALL have shown and let’s hope we can debate policy differences re Palin vs HRC in 2012, with the same class and dignity that you have shown here.
I think they are feeding people bull and at this point I would not trust any of the media even fox they want us and others to not vote to give up we need to vote and do it asap I am going tomorrow I was going to go next week but I am going to take Obama advise and go vote early. For Mccain Palin
559 KarenWI Not necessarily. Bush could remain in office until it’s all settled.
“NBC Protecting Obama from Biden’s Gaffe”
The Weekly Standard
Oct. 21, 2008
“Joe Biden’s commented on Sunday that Barack Obama’s election as President would, within six months, result in ‘an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.’ Biden further added that the American people would not perceive Barack Obama’s response to this crisis as correct. ‘It’s not gonna be apparent that we’re right,’ he said. Biden’s remarks capture perfectly the message of this campaign: Barack Obama is too risky, too inexperienced, to serve as commander in chief–that his election by itself will provoke our enemies, and that his brief record raises serious questions as to how an Obama administration would respond to such a challenge.
“This campaign highlighted Biden’s remarks throughout the day yesterday. We held a conference call with Mayor Giuliani who asked what Joe Biden meant. We released a statement highlighting Biden’s remarks and asking what kind of crisis his unconditional meetings with the leaders of rogue states might provoke. Our surrogates and spokesmen also noted the comments in radio and TV appearances. Yet on NBC Nightly News last night, when Andrea Mitchell reported on Biden’s remarks, she failed to play the relevant portion–the portion that this campaign and a variety of news outlets had found controversial, or revealing as the case may be. Instead, Ms. Mitchell played a tape of Joe Biden talking about how Barack Obama has ’steel in his spine.’
“This morning, on MSNBC, the network again aired the tape of Biden, and again they aired the segment in which Joe Biden heaps praise on his running mate. But Joe Scarborough noted that the network had played the wrong clip, and that what Joe Biden said directly reflects the central criticism this campaign has made of Barack Obama: that his inexperience, his poor judgment, and his foreign policy proposals will, in Joe Biden’s words, ‘guarantee’ a crisis.
“So how is it that NBC repeatedly failed to play those remarks?”

On Lou Dobb’s today, someone said that half of all Americans make less than $500.00 per week. For most of my life, $500 a week would have been considered a really good living wage. Has America become so conceited and arrogant that people really believe they deserve that much?

‘F’ for Barack’s School Fix
The New York Post
Oct. 20, 2008
Chicago’s former schools chief has flunked the education foundation headed by Barack Obama and founded by 1960s terrorist Bill Ayers – saying it failed to monitor projects and funded school “reform” groups that campaigned against boosting academic standards.
“There was a total lack of accountability. If you went back and asked, you’d be hard-pressed to find out how the money was spent,” said Paul Vallas, the city’s school superintendent when Obama chaired the Chicago Annenberg Foundation from 1995 to 1999…
“Very little of the money found its way directly into the classroom,” Vallas said.
Most frustrating, Vallas said, was that Annenberg under Obama and Ayers funded groups that fought his mission, under Mayor Richard Daley, to impose uniform standards and stricter accountability in low-performing schools.
Many of Vallas’ goals were later adopted by Mayor Bloomberg in Big Apple schools.

#KarenW: I think in that situation, one might see George Bush activiate his Executive Order re martial law then all bets are off on evrything related to this election. Any event anywhere in the world that threatens American interests, including here, is the criteria for implementation of the order..
KAREN
If neither candidate gets enough electoral votes to win, then it goes to the House for a vote, which will result in an Obama victory. That’s why this is getting awfully discouraging. McCain needs to hit at least 270 and get more than Obama. It’s a long shot, but we’ve all worked so hard for so long, we gotta take it all the way.
ALOHA
I hear you and feel similarly. We’ve all been busting our butts, shouting and having our voices muted and falling on deaf ears. We lost the battle with our party (at least, in my estimation, like some will have their own spin on that) and now we seem poised to lose the next big one. Who the hell wouldn’t feel drained, discouraged, and, I for one, would add, incredibly, incredibly angry!
Big Cat Lover
I think BO’s going out there to squash whatever it is that Andy Martin’s doing – and what Phil Berg is doing. Maybe his first “vacation” was to determine the actions needed and steps to take to get what is needed.
What I find interesting is this lawsuit (Martin’s) was filed last week; BO’s gmother was released from the hospital, last week. Now she’s home, and is gravely ill, and MO’s not going. I don’t care how much MO doesn’t like the woman, it would look horrible for her (in the public’s eye) if she didn’t go see this poor lady if she was dying. And, this “grave illness”? (The C word comes to mind when I hear that. God, I hope not. I hope she’s fine.) But, still, I would think MO and the kids – especially – would go were there a chance she’s not going to be okay.
Nancy R broke her hip week before last. Didn’t go to the hospital for 3 days. She’s now home. . .and doing okay.
I just think he has, once again, used his poor, dear gmother to cover his true intentions. If that is true, I honestly don’t understand how he can sleep at night.
I think all these zillion of political ads for BO will backfire. I know if a product continues to badger me with a lot of ads, I will not buy it – I will buy from the competitor.

#523 Jenniforhillary—
Here are some points and links. Hope it helps.
http://www.johnmccain.com/futureatrisk/
Oh I forgot!!!
I’m in moderation (too many links) Sorry.
#583 I’m sorry about BO’s grandmother, but I have to admit I don’t know exactly what her illness involves. At the age of 85 it could be something serious. I don’t know why I haven’t heard too much about that. Maybe it’s because I don’t watch MSM.
POLLS
I check many polls every day as well. And, I it’s common for folks to dismiss them when they’re not looking good for their candidate, and rejoice in them when things are looking promising. While, in my view polls have inherent problems and biases, ultimately, the respected polls have proven to be fairly good predictors of outcomes. And, when you see a trend over time, it’s usually indicative of something not easily dismissed. Like I posted a day or two ago, for me, it’s now down to the very basics: Make calls for McCain in swing states and try to get others to do the same. I’m having a lot of success reaching out to those with McCain/Palin yard signs and it’s incredible how ill informed many of them are: Don’t know about caucus fraud (of course, how would they?), don’t know about the Missouri prosecutor and sheriff issue, don’t know about McCain supporters being assaulted, etc. Many are a lot less complancent after a short conversation about some of these things.
Anyway, preparing for the worst, but hoping for the best and continuing to work toward the outcome we want.
Signing off for the night…

Hi Pumas,
Back again…. I know it’s hard not to be discouraged by the polls and such but we all must stay strong. There’s a lot more at stake here. Do not believe the polls–they are designed to discourage you!
And when you do get discouraged, just remind yourself of 4 years of President Obama…. in which he can work to change the face of democracy forever….

Watch Palins interview with CNN’s Drew Griffin. I see nothing wrong with her and almost fall of my chair when she said the word “apologise”. When has our politician ever apologised – when they are caught cheating on their wives ? It seems so alien to have the word come from someone in politics. The other time she said that was when she apologized for being annoyed at Katie Couric ’s question regarding what newspapers she reads up there in Alaska. She was annoyed that they think a Journalism major cannot name some main stream newspapers or even have to answer such condesending questions.

Murphy,
You have mail.
590 mick I would live like a queen on $24,000 a year. Actually, I live pretty good on half that and fail to understand why anyone cannot, unless they have children or some special needs such as caring for elderly relatives.
But a single person should be able to live well. Unless they never heard the word, ‘humble’.
MURPHY, YOU HAVE EMAIL….
Your Northern Neighbor -
Were you able to get to all the email addresses ?
If not, I would like to do it.
HAve to go to Dallas early tomorrow till Sunday but can cram tonight.
Can anyone tell me do you have to show birth certificateto be a senator? If so did he?
re:polls
When has Carpathia EVER doen as good at the voting booth as he has in the polls? I remember quite well how many time the polls had him winning and Hillary wound up on top.
Oh good evening all.
I’m such a dope. Why do I even bother with CNN? Bay Buchann is the only guest that has some sense of balance. Susan Eisenhower is the other guest, a huge Obot.
Susan just said that BO is DEEPLY courageous and that the talk of the Ayers issue is dangerous and is dividing the country. Riiiiiight!
She’s repeating what Biden said on the trial today.
And then you have this David OSomething who is another Obot.
Ok, I’ve had enough, back to Fox News.

Thanks, again.
re: Clinton democrats, 84 to 87%? Wasnt it just a couple weeks (days?) ago that 28% weren’t?
Cooked.
Help Wanted:
There are still about 4,000 flyers left.
We are looking for some good people who do not know about this ? Is that possible ? Yes, someone emailed today saying they would like some but didn’t see a cost.
They are free. It is full color and the only thing we need is your commitment to distribute them – the swing states really need your help..

Former Secretary of State Madeline Albright, one of the most prominent Hillary Clinton supporters now in support of Barack Obama, admits it is a “statement of fact” that the election of the Democratic senator from Illinois as president will result in him being tested by a generated international crisis by America’s enemies.
Responding to last weekend’s comments by Obama’s vice presidential running mate Joe Biden — who said Obama would be tested within the first six months of his administration — Albright told CNN’’s John Roberts, “It’s just a statement of fact. In my book [“Memo to the President Elect: How We Can Restore America’s Reputation and Leadership”], I talk about the fact that there are a lot of big issues out there, but also something unexpected. You always have to be prepared for that.”
Albright, an informal advisor to the Obama campaign and Secretary of State under former President Bill Clinton, has gone on record as saying Biden is one of the most respected figures in American foreign policy and should know about these matters.
“As Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee he has involved himself in every conceivable subject,” she told Bloomberg News. “I’ve testified in front of him many times and he is incredibly knowledgeable, very oriented to making a difference for America, and very well-known by foreign leaders.”

POLLS
As long as I logged back on to thank Landi, just a quick note to say that I don’t recall lots of polls showing Obama winning that ended up as a Clinton win. But, my brain ain’t what it used to be! I recall some polls were very close, and the win was close. Other polls showed her ahead and she won. I’m going to go with everyone else’s recollection that the polls were way off and allow that to fuel me onward these next several days.
Gotta check out the link Dances just posted and truly log off…

Didn’t we keep hearing how Hillary should give up – this is the second time in two days that I’ve heard the same sentiment towards McC.
On the subject of MO and THAT ONE’s grandmother ….. I’ve not seen any family photos with MO and her. I can very well understand why MO would not acknowledge the WHITE grandmother. It is all so obvious.
That the great-grandchildren have not shown respect for her is something I find totally unforgiveable – especially when you listen to THAT ONE spout how indebted he is to her. It just goes to show ‘the content of his character’.

I’m in Oregon, so I don’t think we are the biggest priority. Ballots are out now. However, there is a McCain rally on Saturday in my town. McCain will phone in. I take what you have to spare Freddie, but again they should be put to use in the critical states.
thanks for the start jeremy…
Oh I’m feeling it people….and it isn’t a GOOD FEELING….News and Online is going into HIGH GEAR for NOBAMA….
FIGHT IT….WE MUST FIGHT IT!!
The below website has some of the best ads I’ve seen yet. They are high quality. A must see!

New hampshire. “o’ was a a four point favorite according to polls. Hillary won.
Had to go look it up.
ok, does anyone truly believe this poll? Has there been any good news for McCain today? or any bad news for Obama?

indy or any other indiana pumas attending the rally on thursday at legion hall? wondering if there’s a group meeting there- i was on the midwest puma list but haven’t gotten any regional emails– I may have not gotten on the right list.
Am I the only one that finds it strange that all this early voting is going on? Why the big push from BO and Biden. It seems they know something is coming out about BO and they want people to vote now so when IT comes out its to late you already voted. You know the BO slogan VOTE EARLY AND VOTE OFTEN.
oh i meant the obama rally btw– i don’t have any puma gear, but i was thinking of wearing an ACORN badge and mickey mouse ears

MY DEAR PUMA’s –
PLEASE, PLEASE – FORGET THE POLLS. As I watched Rasmussen earlier this evening, I wanted to ask ‘How much was his TAKE???’
THAT ONE is very clever …just remember the recent API dupe. The polls are meant to keep people from voting, especially when they are made to think it would be useless. He uses any means possible and is not to be trusted, no way, no how, never!

Gallup Aggregates
Last weeks Gallup Aggregates showed that showed McCain/BO at 42%/51% contained 23% more Democrats than Republicans in the sampling pool.
That is based on phone polling, including cell phones. In my opinion, that is just too easy to rig if you have enough money. I guess we will find out on election day.

I am passing along similar views as #626alohapuma. In my neck of the woods, it looks good and my precinct that I volunteer for know about PUMA.

Don’t worry, the polls won’t stop us from voting (2 votes for McCain tomorrow).
I just wish the polls would be realistic and fair.
What I find amazing is the BS involving Hispanics. In my personal contacts an easy 70% are opposing “O”. IN fact, the buttons I ordered from McCain all went to Hispanics.
Go figure. Oh and if you head to Modesto, don’t even think about supporting Carpathia. You may not make it out. Lol.
They are doing the same play that they did when Hillary got close its over its over and Hillary won every time . we got to call and get out the vote.Like we did for her. I hope the ones supporting him see this game plan again and change their votes back to McCain.
I’m not sure if this has been posted, but here’s a youtube video about Bo’s tax plan.

I post on CL and judge the effectiveness of a post by how often to O’bots flag it. By far and away, the following post has had way more flags than any other:
Why This Democrat Will Not Vote for BO!
• Enmeshed In Acorn Voter Fraud Registration During Presidential Campaign And Voter Fraud And Intimidation During Primary Campaign.
• Foreign And Fraudulent Campaign Contributions And Misrepresentation Of Sources. Will Not Release Information On “Small Donors”.
• Excessive Expenditures For Media, Polling And Telemarketing.
• Media Bias And Misogyny.
• Excessive Race Baiting And Exploitation. Reversed Position On Racism As A Campaign Issue.
• Telecommunication Polling Bias. Online Polling Fraud.
• Stages Events With Free Entertainment And Transportation.
• Frequently Reverses And Significantly Changes Position On The Issues.
• Rhetoric Is Not Backed Up With Any Substance On How Promises Will Be Fulfilled.
• Past Affiliation With Graft, Corruption And Extreme Leftism.
• Has Not Been Honest About Religious Upbringing Or Relationship With Hate Church.
• Cannot Demonstrate Citizenship.
• Has Not Been Honest About Academic Achievements And Will Not Release College Transcripts.

#647 headclunker… you post on CL… what is “CL”?
#607Mountainsong: This is not the case for example in many larger cities even for a single person and forget living like a queen on $12,ooo here some 20years ago and New Orleans cost of living compared to other cities has always beenvery low and stayed that way until Katrina. It has gone up now significanlty since Katrina.
In 1988, on $18.000 a year single I lived well with discretionaly money every month and a rent in Lakeview, good area for a half a shotgun house, at $275 a month. In 1999, $27,000 rent at $600 , including utilities,in another great area by City Park in mid city still ok..Rents have risen over 200% since Katrina. I am simply saying that in other areas, things are not the same as where you are. I am giving an example of a city that of course was impacted by something beyond the extraordinary..even so..single people if they rent and make now 25,000 plus food would not at all go close to how far it went 10 years ago, even befor Katrina as we hit the 2000 years. I think inflation started to hit food prices almost 10 years ago and have consistently gone slowly up with no one noticing unless you lived as I did on a cash basis and not credit. I noticed…and not just food.

She’s certainly better now that the McCain campaign has essentially turned her loose. No more ‘deer in the headlights’! I sure like what she’s saying.
Palin interview on CNN:
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/21/palin.sitroom/index.html#cnnSTCVideo
Hi Murphy, regarding the post for this thread, indeed, the malls are deserted on the weeknights, and sparsely populated on the weekends. I am trying to do my part, though I am normally a very frugal PUMA, spending more than usual, giving more to charity because I know people are hurting. In fact, I have three family members living with me, victims of hospital bills and small pension, and job loss, and mortgage foreclosure. I am glad to pay my fair share in taxes so that people with bad luck and circumstance have some safety net to fall back on. They say charity begins at home, and for the first time in my life I am practicing this.

I think that the law states that the file is sealed on the original birth certificate when a child is adopted. Maybe the court wants BO to state whether he does or doesn’t want the record unsealed. Another reason could be that Grandma has papers that need to be given to BO in person before she gets any closer to dying.
I still don’t believe that there is any love lost between MO and Typical White Person. That is my guess as to why she and the children didn’t visit her when they were on vacation there and why she isn’t going this time either-even if there may never be another opportunity.
Regarding the POLLS. I remember studying about this in college. Just think, if every NOBOT was sending this amount in, sure the POLLS would be in their favor. Better yet, I think the caller list has been prepared and paid for and the caller gets a tip for how they respond. I guess that is how I RESPECT the current POLLS.
*********************************************
PAMPA – “What’s a poll tax?”
I’ve never forgotten that question from my favorite former wife. We were in line, pre-divorce, to cast our votes in the 2000 election. I had struck up a conversation with a gentleman – we were reminiscing over previous elections – all the way back to our first opportunities to vote, when this person, shaking his head, remembered having to purchase a poll tax in order to vote in Texas elections.
At first, I was taken aback by my favorite exe’s question – it’s the history factor with me, thinking she should have known, but understanding quickly overcame wonder. She is from Ohio, where many old homes on the east side of a great river have hidden staircases leading to once-secret rooms, offered as a haven to those who traveled the Underground Railroad, and a state with no history of … poll taxes.
Going through my late father’s papers, I came across a Texas poll tax receipt dated from 1964, which cost him and every other Texan wishing to vote at that time in our history, $5.
The receipt not only stimulated thoughts of a favorite ex-wife, but what election time would be like in Texas were the poll tax still required before one could vote. After forty-two years, the poll tax would probably cost a Texan many times more than $5. In that aspect, the tax would still accomplish what it was intended to do. A person would still be forced to make a choice – put food on the table or vote – over what was meant to be a freedom with the only attachment being, citizenship required. From its inception, the poll tax was for one point and one point only: To interfere with the rights of certain citizens when they wished to vote.
Since the 1960s, eight of the 11 states that incorporated poll taxes have ratified the 24th Amendment, which outlawed the poll tax in national elections. Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas have yet to perform their sensical duties and ratify the 24th. It’s a no brainer why Mississippi has not admitted its wrongdoing. Arkansas seems in no hurry either, though a law was passed in that state near the end of World War II that allowed any soldier having served in the armed forces a poll tax exemption. On the other hand, Virginia, the first state to legally challenge the 24th and lose, ratified the amendment in 1977. North Carolina jumped onto the band wagon in 1989. Alabama, shadowed in Dixie, came to its senses in 2002.
Oh Texas, my Texas, what have you done to right the injustice? In 1963, the Legislature voted to repeal the 24th Amendment, and even continued charging a poll tax for local and state elections, rather backward moves, until the U.S. Supreme Court action of 1966 declaring poll taxes for any election – illegal. Ever since, successive Texas legislatures have evidently considered ratification of the 24th unimportant, while eight other Southern states have thought otherwise.
What does it say about our state leaders that so many of them over the years cannot commit to the fact that institution of the poll tax denied citizens their right to vote?
As Abraham Lincoln said: “To sin by silence when they should protest makes cowards of men.”

I was just looking around in the GretaWire…. and can’t believe all the obots in there! I thought that it was pretty free of koolaid drinkers, but what I’m reading now is pretty nuts…. McCain blog is full of crazy Obama nuts, and now Gretawire is too…. PUMApac is about the only remaining oasis of sanity there is left that the obots haven’t destroyed.
Question about polls
Do they poll on the percentage of registered voters? If they do, are they adding their own percentages of Dems for Hill that are voting for McC into the mix?
Data is data. I used to do a LOT of analyzing for the govt. You can take mucho info and direct it towards the results you want. . .just saying.

I gassed up in Cambridge when I saw a Shell station with regular 2.84 a gallon!!! Heh, I got taken by a pan handler, the guy comes up to me from the car adjacent with person with head on the steering wheel. Guy says “she just needs enough gas to get to J.P. “(Jamaica Plain {Boston}) I was like, gut says no… but I gave him 6$ anyway, then he got more money from a guy pulling out, then he jumps in the car and they speed off.
So much for needing that gas eh buddy! What can I say… thats life in the people’s republic. It will not make me stop giving to those I sense in need. But the ones I am not feelin’ it for… nope, not gonna do it. I am just so sensitive now, because I know a lot of my fellow Americans are hurting and its only going to get worse.

Even if it is not a formal resume..send me an email with the specifics you listed and more detail. Ok?

If you run across the one where “O” talks about his foreign trade policy, particularly the NAFTA debacle. I would like that. I havent found it yet. Also anything that will make small business suffer under “O’. They will help a lot.
Thanks your the best.
I’m really bothered by Biden’s comments. Why would he say this if it weren’t true? It’s pretty scary considering Nobama will sit down with Iran without preconditions; however, Iran’s preconditions to sit down with the US Pres are:
“In October 2008, the Iranian government announced its own preconditions for one-on-one meetings with the Unites States: Pull all US troops out of the Middle East, and abandon support for “Zionist” Israel.”
I’m racking my brain trying to figure out what “generated” national security crisis Biden is referring to that American people are going to be pissed at Bozo about. Bozo sympathizes with Palestians and apparently thinks it’s cool to sit down with Ahmadinejad. It makes me think he sympathizes with Iran also, who is the leader in harboring terrorists, and will pull us out of Iraq, abandon Israel, forcing them to attack Iran or be wiped off the map. Based on Bozo’s idiotic first comments regarding Russia invasion of Georgia, he seems to sympathize with Russia also. Putin is obsessed with overtaking the US in becoming the most powerful country in the world. Not sure what he means really but something big is going to happen and most Americans will be pissed?
Add to this, spreading the wealth, higher taxes, reversing on most all of his previous positions, terrorist connections, nation of Islam connections, blah blah……..I’m not sure how anyone of sane mind can vote for this guy.
On a positive note, I called my uncle, who’s 58, and a die hard blue dog Democrat so he’s never voted Repub in his life. I asked him what he thinks of this crazy election. He says “well, I hate to say it but I will be voting for a Republican for the first time ever.” Wooohooo!

I was thinking about the “crisis” scenario my self. If “o’ wins , and he won’t, Iran will feel empowered to move ahead with their nuclear program. If that were to happen you can bet Isreal will bomb them again. I believe Biden is trying to set the stage to make Isreal look bad.

The person who hired the temps breaking into the passport files was an Obama advisor. Two of the temps were supposedly fired, and one was “disciplined” but not fired. The advisor was never challenged, investigated or even questioned in the msm. Nothing was made of it.
BO might have had more than one passport from his childhood?? His trip to Pakistan was thought to have been on his Indonesian passport, but when his mother divorced his step-father, could that have somehow changed his adoptive/citizenship /passport status? At one point his mother worked for the American embassy, too, I think at the time BO went there to visit her and his college friends. Maybe she pulled some strings at somepoint to get him an American passport.
#523 jenniforhillary on 10.21.08 at 8:07 pm IMPORTANT–

Jen…just go to the action center I have several flyers there detail his friends and connection to ayers and there are many other resources there also…..
oh and the fact is that Obama never was ever offered tenure for any professorship because he never was a “Professor” with any college…he was considered an Associate Professor-part-time only and was in fact a very part-time lecturer on constitutional law only…yeh constitutional law…LOL…what a joke……..

ON OCT. 29TH – TURN OFF OBAMA-TV
I am so tired of hearing about Obama spending big bucks to run his infomercial on October 29th by trying to blanket MSM television airways.
I think we need to begin to promote a “Turn off Obama-TV” on October 29th.
I say – Do NOT Listen to or Watch Obama’s 30 minute commercial on October 29, 2008
Obama thinks he can MAKE us listen to what he has to say by spending all that money in order to have his commercial on several networks at the same time.
We do NOT have to listen. We do NOT have to support this gimmick.
We do not have to fall in line like the Democratic Party assumes we will do. We do not have to permit the gang in the so-called Democratic leadership – Dean, Frank, Pelosi, Reid & Brazile – continue to fantasize that they are leading us.
Mainstream media may be in the tank for Obama – but we are Americans and we have freedom of choice. We do not have to watch & listen to Obama simply because he has decided he will MAKE us hear him.
Let’s all participate in: “Turn Off Obama-TV” that night.
On October 29th for that specific 30 minutes:
Push mute – Turn down the sound – Change the channel – or Turn off the television
Do not listen to any more of Obama’s hot air , false promises or his lies about McCain-Palin.
INSTEAD for that 30 minutes do something else with your brain cells — (here’s a few ideas)
Watch a different tv program
Watch a DVD or video
Listen to the radio
Listen to a CD
Read a book or magazine
Play a board game
Surf the web
Watch YouTube videos
Call a friend on the phone
Play a video game
Write an email to a friend
Work on one of the word games or word puzzles in the newspaper
Play the piano (or instrument of your choice)
Do some exercising
Play a card game
Work on your family’s scrapbooks
Bake Halloween cookies or cupcakes
Work on your favorite hobby
Between now and Oct 29th – Let others know that you are choosing NOT to listen to & to NOT watch Obama’s commercial. And encourage others to join in a national response to this media effort.
For the record:
I am a PUMA in VA who is not voting for Obama-Biden.
I am a Black woman who is not voting for Obama-Biden.
I am a registered democrat who is not voting for Obama-Biden.
I am one of the voters who supported Hillary Clinton in the primary who is not voting for Obama-Biden.
Please join me by choosing to turn away from Obama’s efforts to control the outcome of this election by spending so much money on a one night media blitz.
Tell all your family & friends to “Turn Off Obama-TV” on Oct. 29th!!
In regard to the question – are you feeling it –
In the Long Island town in which I live there are many stores within walking distance.
They are neighborhood stores which I give my business whenever possible.
They are all doing well, as far as I can tell.
A few weeks ago, however, I wanted to purchase a pair of suade slippers for the winter which I knew could be found at the Sundance Store at the mall.
When my husband and I visited the mall, we were shocked. So many of the stores were closed and half the mall was in darkness.
I happened to purchase the last pair of slippers in my size at Sundance. That store is going out of business too.
It was very depressing and quite frightening.
