The Real Obama


Recommended Posts

ZING!!!

Actually usawakeup.org is a neo-con run organization. They are writers funded by Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and other personalities. They use avenues like this to support their radical views that are too edgy for their radio programs. They will mention these sites and these sites will support them. It's part of their propaganda rumor mill.

Do your own homework though, I may be for basic rights, but I am not for free rides.

MoveOn. Org. Real intellectuals. DailyKos? Hate group.

People For The American Way. Not really for the American way.

I would not call Hannity or Rush NeoCons. I'd call them True Conservatives. They've been banging on the Administration about spending, cultural issues, and other RINO policies. Chuck Hagle is not a NeoCon, is he?

Your use of the term RADICAL is purely subjective. Most of these beliefs used to be mainstream in America. God, complete families, hard work, a hand up not a hand out, entrepreneurship (wow I spelled that correctly the first time!), civility. manners and respect. Not so much by anyone anymore. I wish it was 1955 again, without the racial suppression. 2 cars, 2 chickens, plenty of work, and a few morals.

I would call him a carrier lobbyist and puppet for corporate finance. Like most politicians.

Its pretty sad that this is the only way America has to end up with a president. Bullshit from both sides, silly accusations, irrelevant things being brought up left and right...both campaigns are not shy to send downright lies into the airwaves. Intelligence and qualification are irrelevant, just come up with populist BS and you'll be all right. You'd think there would be some basic rules to something this important but instead but it's just the world's longest shouting match.

And whoever manages to look the least bad in all this becomes president, yay. Ludicrous. Its idiocy not democracy.

Thats why if you really care, you need to dig behind media face. It's real hard to do tho, even with internet access. So many folks go for the look, the pretty words, all that superficial crap. Thats why going on associations, patterns of behavior, history, and basic ideas goes a long way. John Stossel of ABC has and editorial today talking about how some people should just not vote. They polled college students at a voter reg concert held by HeadCount.org. Non partisan group, he sites. questions like:" How many senators are there?" Answers? 12, 16, 64, and one respondent said 50 per state. Roe vs. Wade? Answers? "Roe vs Wayne?", "segregation, maybe?", "Where we declared bankruptcy?" But whats the cutoff, how much should you know? Maybe all that folks respond to is a handout or what can you do for me. Sad.

Now, I bet JCviggen from Belgium knows how many senators we have. You gotta pay attention.

Tidbit for today: Obama campaign has booted Washington Times, NY Post, and Dallas Morning News from campaign plane.

All 3 have endorsed McCain.

Arts & Crafts majors at their best i guess...

But your right about doing some digging, its worth it to find out info on your own that isnt laced with BS, I havent turned on CNN or any news channel so far this election and i dont think ive missed out on anything.

And yes JCviggen it is sad that the one who gets elected is the one that can BS the best...if they promise the average voter the right things that will make them feel good then they will win. Thats why I liked Ron Paul(even though some of his ideas were a bit wacko) so much is because he didnt BS around the fact that a lot of stuff in this country was wrong.

Well the media aren't forcing the democrats or republicans to spew nonsense and misinformation at every occasion. If I see the stuff on http://www.factcheck.org/ you wonder how either candidate can keep a straight face while talking. Its downright embarassing. Why is this the norm, one could ask? Is that the best the US has to offer?

When it comes to spreading BS the republicans seem to outgun the dems 2 to 1 at least by the way, but who cares really when both sides are this similar in their approach. Followers of both camps don't even bother to check anything, they're just on auto-believe.
