Obama admin's OPM, headed by a gay man, reportedly blocks lesbian from getting health benefits
Sarah Palin is palling around with these dirt bags.
Who really knows Palin? McLame and she keep asking this about Obama, but the joke is, no one really knows about her. At least Obama has been vetted many times throughout the primaries and now the Presidential campaign,
Palin is the mysterious candidate, who has lied to us from the beginning.
How long has she been doing this? 5 weeks?

OH SNAP !!!!
Ooops...how low will it go......
See what happens when "wealth" is build on a pile of DEBT.
However we're watching what is called a free fall but the good news is that when the market finds it's finial bottom it will stop and jump back up to it's true bottom which is always greater than it finale bottom after that it will work its way upward again but don't expect the old highs we've come to take for granted.
In the sexity the market functioned in the 100's and 1,000's were few and far between but folks did make money over time.
Look for companies with large cash reserves, i.e Apple
Perhaps McShame and Appallin' Palin should get copies?

The second thing he can do is to put the fundamentalist's mega-churchs on the tax rolls and tax the living crap out of them!
Like this:
"Oil prices plummet to a one-year low below $83 a barrel as investor fears of a severe global economic downturn caused by the crisis in credit markets spark a panicked sell-off of both crude and equities."

Never mind...nothing to see here....
Watch the video.....Where is Geraldo??? He used to investigate people affiliated with hate groups....
How many times have you seen Republican conventions that center around calling Democrats traitors, un-American and unworthy of even a voice in the public square? How often have you seen bigotry and racism used as primary selling points for a Republican candidate? How often have you seen the name of God taken in vain as a mere political slogan and justification for imposition of a radical regime?
Now we see the evolution of this fear, hatred and loathing into a movement more akin to the Brown Shirts of the Nazi Party. It is a time to end the Republican party. It is time to arrest their leaders as traitors and see them tried, imprisoned or executed in accordance with their crimes.
The saddest thing about many Republicans isn't just that they disagree with liberals on race--it's they are largely ignorant on race. When the McCain campaign cast the spell of diabolical jingoism, they have no idea of the forces they are toying with. We remember Martin Luther King's murder as a sad and tragic event. Less remembered is the fact that ground-work for King's murder was seeded, not simply by rank white supremacy, but by people who slandered King as a communist.
This was not some notion bandied about by conspiracy theorist, but an accusation proffered by men who were the pillars of the modern Republican Party:

How's that for a positive response from McCain's actions?

Off topic-I laugh when I think of all the bigots out there who would never vote for a black man but would also never vote for a woman. They must be pretty conflicted people right about now! I guess that is why they had to turn Betty Boop into a sex symbol. I hope they just stay home and suck their thumbs on election day.
But I think the we we finally realize the full ramification of the bush crime family via death and destruction, it is reasonable to be pissed off and angry. The mob mentality should be directed at those who have done this country wrong. The American people have not risen up to do so. We have not had a million citizenry march to Washington demanding "redress"; Demanding our say in how we govern ourselves. So while the repukes have a misplaced rage, and are told to "tone" it down. It is in my belief, that this meme to tone it down is a way to say to the American people, hey don't get angry, just vote..... which of course has really gotten us no where in the two party system.
the latter is what McCain's going to get if they keep it up.
As noted the REPUKES have a misdirected anger. It will bite them in the ass, hopefully.
I deplore anyone who incites violence on an individual person/group (ie. the cameraman)
I would bet that if a million citizen march were to happen towards Washington, we would see some scared ass politicians, running for the hills.
McCain and Palin are cowards. You betcha!
Joe Biden said it yesterday:
"In my neighborhood, when you’ve got something to say to a guy, you look him in the eye and you say it ...."
Typical liberal exaggerating? Maybe on your planet.
unrewarded. That's why he gets the big bucks and I don't.
And this will be a criminal act. Rove, Bushco, Cheney, McCain, Palin, etc all need to go to jail!
Even at this late date I still favor impeachment!
Check out the hate mongers at this McGrampy rally....

""Obama's blind ambition. When convenient, he worked with terrorist Bill Ayers. When discovered, he lied. Obama. Blind ambition. Bad judgment," the ad's narrator says."

I rarely if ever try to address guys like you, who run sites like this, directly. I'm usually of the opinion you're kinda busy. But if anyone who can give an idea like this traction, it's you:
I think it's time to ask some point-blank questions to guys like Limbaugh & Hannity and O'Reilly, not to mention McCain and Palin.
In your opinion, IS Barack Obama a terrorist? Or at the very least, a terrorist sympathizer? After all, they're talking about him "pallin' around" with Ayres, that sounds, at the very least, like an implication that he's a terrorist sympathizer to me.
If you think Barack IS aterorist or sympathizer...well, shouldn't we kill him? I mean, isn't that what we're supposed to DO in this war on terror? Protect our way of life by any means necessary? Why is McCain even on a STAGE with a terrorist? Why isn't he sneaking a knife in his pants to take out thie terrorist threat once and for all?
Seems to me like there's no one way or the other. IF Obama's a terrorist or terrorist sympathizer, he should be dealt with as such. And if Hannity or Limbaugh or O'Reilly or any of their lessers can't bring themselves around to say it, well, then...why can't they bring themselves around to say it? I'll hazard a guess: THEY DON'T THINK OBAMA'S A TERRORIST! And if they don't think Obama's a terrorist, then I think they should have no problem devoting, oh, 20 seconds of their respective programs to say Obama's not a terrorist, and no harm should come to him. They should be part of the solution to let cooler heads prevail.
And if they don't want to be part of that solution, well, then I guess their silence implies that they DO think Obama's a terrorist. That should go over really well with the undecideds, don't you think?
Look, the right likes to throw everyone who's NOT part of the right together. We're all commie/homo/terrorist/Islamofascists/athiests/babykillers/traitors/ and on and on. It's part of their cute li'l hate-filled tribe, and the names they hurl at us are practically interchangeable, all synonymous with "UnAmerican." 95% of the dill holes on those youtube videos saying Obama's a Muslim and a terorist probably don't believe it any more than I believe McCain is a robot, but they think it's all part of the fun of an election year, to dehumanize your opponent. But it's that whacked out 5% I worry about, as I'm sure we all do. They need to hear, from the very pundits upon whose altars they worship, that Obama's a guy they disagree with poltiically, not a threat, not a terrorist, not someone to be used for target practice. And if they can't bring themselves to say it, then they're pretty much admitting all the awful things we on the left have come to assume about them.
I thought that whole issue was settled at Appomatox Courthouse in April, 1865.
But she goes on about "America First".
Some US Nazi-sympathizers belonged to a party called "America First" in the 30's & 40's. When it became unpopular in the US, they generally threw in with conservative Republicans & hoped that nobody would notice. I guess that Palin's clarion call is their Judgment Day call to rise again.
In viewing this video I was immediately reminded of film clips I've seen of Hitler's Brown Shirts. McCain is intentionally appealing to peoples' most base fears and prejudices, inciting hatred and creating an incendiary atmosphere that borders on treasonous.
One can only hope that wiser heads in the Republican Party exert pressure on McCain to halt his destructive campaign before it erupts into tragedy. Otherwise, all Republicans will be held responsible for the acts and behavior of these frightened people fueled by the inflammatory rhetoric of the leaders of their party.
Send a link (http://laconiademocrats.blogspot.com/2008/10/mc...) to this to your family, friends and neighbors, whether they be Democrats, Republicans or Independents. We must stop McCain's and Palin's assault on civility and the rule of law and encouragement of a mob mentality.
