“Sen. Obama, periodically when he is feeling down, launches attacks as a way of trying to boost his appeal. But I think these kinds of gamesmanship are not what the American people are looking for.” — D. Murphy, 10/22/08

So the multi-millionaire Barbie Boy wants to ridicule Sarah Palin for needing money to buy the clothes she MUST BUY to campaign for the White House. Nice. Barack Obama is a creep and a fraud, and if you are a Democrat who hasn’t figured this out yet, YOU ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION!

It never stops. Never, ever. If Sarah Palin had tried to campaign in the wardrobe she has hanging in her closet in Juno, you know, the Ann Taylor suits that cost $148.99 and the three or four pairs of $200 shoes, the 4 jackets, six scarves, five handbags, and one pair of snazzy but scuffed gen-yoo-ine snakeskin boots with which every professional woman with children tries to look good while making do, she would have been HOUNDED RELENTLESSLY and ridiculed as a shabby, amateur hick in every media outlet in the universe. Just ask Michelle Obama. A very stylish lady, in my opinion. But nothing protects her either. She is ridiculed and hounded for wearing belts that are too big, dresses with floral prints, and scary boots. She probably spends a LOT of money on her clothes. And why not? She’s a very wealthy woman. Cindy McCain has made getting dressed a full-time job since she was 7 or 8 years old. She looks great, perfect even. At all times. It’s a bit scary actually. And Hillary? Cleavage, kitten heels, and pantsuits. Enough said.

This is how it works, Folks. An impossible standard is raised and we are all expected to bankrupt ourselves to meet it — to spend a phenomenally STUPID amount of money on clothes and accessories, to hate the way we look in order to motivate ourselves to BUY MORE, and to feel shamed and ugly when we cannot or will not play the game.

The Palin’s combined income in 2007 was $170,000, with $25,000 going to taxes and $8,000 to charity. That means $11,500 a month net for a family of seven. Not bad. All the bills get paid on time, presents fill the room on Christmas morning, college gets saved for, Dad gets a snowmobile, and Mom can buy a reasonable amount of clothes every year to do her job. In 2006, their net monthly income for their family of six was $9,833. And it was less in the years prior to 2006. A nice, comfortable two-salary family in this day and age.

But NOT enough to dress like Cindy McCain, or Mika Brezhnev, or Andrea Mitchell, or Candy Crowley, or Michelle Obama.

Sarah Palin is an upper middle class WORKING CLASS person. No one so “poor” has run for national office in 150 years. When Bill Clinton ran he had been Governor for 8 years and Hillary had already made them wealthy (plus, der, he’s a guy and this is a DOUBLE standard we are talking about). Dan Quayle, Al Gore, John Kerry, both George Bushes, Dick Cheney, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter? Barbie Barack Obama and Joe Biden? All rich. Really rich. And male too, so it doesn’t even count. Nancy Pelosi? RICH. Even Geraldine Ferraro was rich. Hillary is rich.

There aren’t enough short piers in the world for this crew. Who do they go after? Always, always, always it’s the vulnerable.

The Ohio woman whose daughter died because the hospital wouldn’t take her

The working poor in Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, and Kentucky

The retarded and the unlovely (Trigg Palin and Janet Huckabee)

Joe the Plumber and Tito Menendez

Women — always, unceasingly and relentlessly (Sarah, Cindy, Michelle, Bristol, Geraldine, Chelsea, Samantha, Melissa, Amanda, Randi, and, unforgivably, Hillary)

Let me repeat, Barack Obama is a creep and a fraud, and if you are a Democrat who hasn’t figured this out yet, YOU ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION!

There are 13 Days Left in this nightmare. What are you doing to stop the madness?

Go to Pennsylvania with Harriet. Mail flyers to Ohio and Florida. Join Paulie and Marilu in Ohio this weekend and next. Email the media and tell them that if they can devote an investigative budget of tens of thousands of dollars to snoop around Sarah Palin’s closets and Cindy McCain’s daughter’s Facebook account, maybe they could throw a few bucks toward finding Barack Obama’s birth cerificate, or his drug dealer, or his college transcript, or his ties to ACORN and Ayers.

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!

The New York Post, original publisher of the Michelle Obama Lobster/Caviar/Champagne Afternoon Delight story has published a retraction.

I sincerely regret repeating and amplifying what turns out to be a shameful attempt to embarrass and undermine Michelle Obama.

I will take better care in checking sources in the future.

Barack Obama may have been born in America, but he seems to have been “made” somewhere else.

From Byron York at NRO:

In the audience Saturday [at the McCain rally in Virginia], there were plenty of people who were mad about [Joe the Plumber]. There was real anger at this rally, but it wasn’t, as some erroneous press reports from other McCain rallies have suggested, aimed at Obama. It was aimed at the press. And that’s where Tito Munoz came in.

After McCain left, as the crowd filed out, Munoz made his way to an area near some loudspeakers. He attracted a few reporters when he started talking loudly, in heavily-accented English, about media mistreatment of Wurzelbacher. (It was clear that Spanish was Munoz’s native language, and he later told me he was born in Colombia.) When I first made my way over to him, Munoz thought I was there to give him the third degree.

“Are you going to check my license, too?” he asked me. “Are you going to check my immigration status? I’m ready, I have everything here. Whatever you want, I have it. I have my green card, I have my passport — “

I was a little surprised. Did Munoz really bring his papers with him to a McCain rally? I asked.

“Yeah, I have my papers right here,” he said. “I’m an American citizen. Right here, right here.” With that, he produced a U.S. passport, turned it to the page with his picture on it, and thrust it about an inch from my nose. “Right here,” he said. “In your face.”

Munoz said he owned a small construction business. “I have a license, if you guys want to check,” he said.

Someone asked why Munoz had come to the rally. “I support McCain, but I’ve come to face you guys because I’m disgusted with you guys,” he said. “Why the hell are you going after Joe the Plumber? Joe the Plumber has an idea. He has a future. He wants to be something else. Why is that wrong? Everything is possible in America. I made it. Joe the Plumber could make it even better than me. . . . I was born in Colombia, but I was made in the U.S.A.”

The scene turned into a mini-fracas when David Corn, of Mother Jones, defended press coverage. Munoz was having none of it. Why, he asked, would the press whack Joe the Plumber when it didn’t want to report on Obama’s relationship with William Ayers, the former Weather Underground bomber? “How come that’s not in the news all the time?” Munoz said. “How come Joe the Plumber is every second? I’m talking about NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, and CNN.”A black woman with a strong Caribbean accent jumped in the fray. “Tell me,” she said to Corn, “why is it you can go and find out about Joe the Plumber’s tax lien and when he divorced his wife and you can’t tell me when Barack Obama met with William Ayers? Why? Why could you not tell us that? Joe the Plumber is me!”

“I am Joe the Plumber!” Munoz chimed in. “You’re attacking me.”

“Wait a second,” Corn said. “Do you pay your taxes?”

“Yes, I pay my taxes,” the woman said.

“Then you’re better than Joe the Plumber,” Corn said.
That set off a general free-for-all. “I’m going to tell you something,” Munoz yelled at Corn. “I’m better than Obama. Why? Because I’m not associated with terrorists!”

Read the rest — it’s worth it.

The reporter from Mother Jones believes people who pay their taxes are “better” than people who owe the government money. That, Folks, in a nutshell is the NeoLiberal approach to ethics and morals — reflexively condescending and profoundly hypocritical at the same time, just exactly like the Radical Right.

Miq2xu posted an excellent article related to this last night.

Gosh darn the MSM and the DONC for putting our nation through this. First they gleefully swarmed Hillary out of the race like a pack of rabid, sexist dogs — just to show us that a woman’s job is ALWAYS to help a man, no matter how incompetent and inexperienced he may be. “Shut up, Hillary. Sit down, Hillary.” That’s what they fed us every single gosh darn day and night during the primaries. The overriding message, from February to August, was “When will Hillary GO AWAY??”

And now they’re going after little guys: Joe, Tito, even baby Trigg. And I am SO SICK of being forced to participate in the virtual group-sexual-assault that the MSM is perpetrating on Sarah Palin. Enough. The freaks in the Radical Leftwing, who share with us daily their sexual fantasies involving Palin and some instrument of humiliation, are beyond the pale to me.

If there is ANYTHING good that comes out of this horrible psychodrama of an election it will be the permanent EXILE of the NeoLiberals. The collosal failure and disaster perpetrated on our country by George and Dick and Donald succeeded in making neocon a dirty word. A very good thing. Obama and the DONC’s hit job on Hillary, their assault on the working class, and their exposure as actually being, at the end of the day when all is said and done, pretty freaking UNAMERICAN will similarly discredit the NeoLiberal Freaks who are still holding our party hostage.

But keep your eyes on the prize, Pumas. We pay the ransom on November 4th.

Oh, and here’s a picture of Sarah Palin that reminds me of the famous Hillary in the rain in a shiny black leather jacket picture from the primaries. Sarah Palin is a woman in control. And that’s pretty awesome.

October’s more than halfway over and I don’t feel surprised yet. I’m betting that there is NO October Surprise planned. No other shoe to drop. Obama’s holding on to a tiny lead in most polls. Palin is so popular there isn’t a forum big enough to contain her fans. She blew SNL’s ratings record up Saturday night in an appearance that was both funny and relaxed. Joe the Plumber has turned a few more million working class voters in swing states against Obama’s socialist-tinged elitism, and Michelle’s lobster-caviar-champagne habit has more than a few coupon-clippers in Michigan and Virginia scratching their heads.

But, but, but. . .

Polls show a lead for Obama among white women that is too big to dismiss as over-sampling or media bias. Apparently it’s the white MEN who are racist, not the women (this is b.s., I know, but it’s the new conventional wisdom)

This election is ours to lose, Folks.

Don’t get me wrong. Being perceived as “wimp” is TOXIC. Just ask Jimmy Carter, Michael Dukakis,  Al Gore, and John Kerry.

This election will be decided by Independent Men and Puma Women (Puma men, take heart! You will be called Independent Men, but we know you are Pumas). Go back through the last couple of posts for how to Get Your Puma On!

We have two weeks! Let’s do it!

“Well if you want money for minds that hate, all I can tell you Brother is you have to wait!”

We say we want a revolution. Well, here’s how it’s done:

Let’s read in comments that every Puma PAC member has done, or has commited to do doing, AT LEAST one of the Actions above.

This is an educational thread. Thousands read our site every day and many are still trying to figure out what the heck our angle is. Democrats canvassing in Ohio and Pennsylvania, as well as other swing states like Nevada and Virginia, need our help informing people WHY so many Democrats are opposed to Obama. If you are a Democrat, or Democratic-leaning Independent, please tell us in comments WHY you are not voting for That One.

Radio Télévision Libre des Mille Collines (RTLM) was a Rwandan radio station which broadcast from 8 July31 July 1994. It played a significant role during the April-July 1994 Rwandan Genocide.

Widely listened to by the general population, it projected hate propaganda against Tutsis, moderate Hutus, Belgians, and the United Nations mission UNAMIR. It is widely regarded as having played a crucial role in creating the atmosphere of charged racial hostility that allowed the genocide to occur. [source]

A woman in Manhattan was attacked by an Obama supporter. He grabbed her political sign, broke it in half, grabbed another one and ripped that up, then beat her in the face with the stick.

A man who does not support Obama for president found his car in Clearwater, Florida scratched, burned, and urinated on. The vandals scratched “KKK” on the car in several places and burned the car with small lighters or cigarettes.

A woman in Boston holding a sign not supportive of Obama was surrounded by a gang of young men who called her “bitch,” “whore,” and “puta.” They grabbed her sign and ripped it up. A veteran nearby came to her aid. No one else did.

A popular video on Youtube shows Sarah Palin being tackled and knocked unconscious (or worse) by a professional linebacker.

Sarah Bernhardt, a popular comedian in New York,  warned Sarah Palin that she may be “gang-raped by my black brothers” if she dared to visit Manhattan. This line was very well-received by her audience. The youtube has been viewed over 370,000 times, with countless supportive comments.

A wealthy Democratic pornography producer has filmed a porn movie about Sarah Palin called “Nailin’ Palin.” In it, Sarah Palin is degraded with scenes of anal sex and a lesbian sex scene with Hillary Clinton and Condoleza Rice. One of the countless youtubes with scenes from the movie has been viewed 171,000 times, again with hundreds, if not thousands, of positive comments.

Today, a black woman and long-time Puma PAC supporter in Pittsburgh who does NOT support Obama was harrassed and threatened with arrest simply for attempting to hand out flyers to her McCain-supporting neighbor. A different neighbor, watching her approach the McCain supporter’s door, yelled at her to go away and leave them alone. The harasser, who is a white Obama supprter, assumed that because the woman is black she MUST also be supporting Obama and therefore was “obviously” about to commit a crime by knocking on her neighbor’s door.

A “funny” joke making the rounds on liberal Democratic sites has Joe Biden askin Sarah Palin at the VP Debate “What’s the difference between your mouth and your vagina?” ANSWER: “Only some of the things that come out of your vagina are retarded.” This joke is EVERYWHERE on Democratic sites, again with countless approving comments.

A popular blog owned by an Obama supporter called “I Miss My Mommy”  ridicules children with Down’s Syndrome and attempts to humiliate Sarah Palin for being a bad mother. The comments are filled with messages from Democrats who find this hilarious.

The Obama Campaign is no longer about HOPE. It is now only about HATE.

Absolutely unacceptable in the United States.

Call the Obama Campaign Headquarters NOW and DEMAND that he take a STAND against the HATE and VIOLENCE being perpetrated by his supporters.

CALL NOW (866) 675-2008

If anyone finds any other phone numbers for Obama Campaign Offices, please post them in comments.
