"Jesus Christ was a community organizer.
Pontius Pilate was a governor, like Sarah Palin, with lots of responsibilities and executive experience."
helping the needy...I don't remember Jesus talking about homah-seck-shuls.
Nor did he talk about illegal immigration, nor birth control, nor abortion.
But he did talk about feeding the hungry.
Maybe if they knew more about The Patriot Act?
It's one of the great successes of long term Republican election strategy and one of their proudest achievements. As much a key to their success as their much more ballyhooed Southern strategy. And a far, far more destructive strategy.
Back in 1970, in graduate school, we had several of third world students who had degrees from their home country. After taking the qualifying exams all of them had no more than the equivalent of a high school education. Today, that is the state of an American education. Most of those who graduate with a degree, don't know where Iraq or Iran is, couldn't locate them on a world map and think New Mexico is a foreign nation, couldn't spell the plural of potato, don't know current events such what the Bush Doctrine is, etc. The limit of their knowledge of current events is to tell you the latest gossip on Britany Spears or Paris Hilton. A reporter once paraphrased the Declaration of Independence to members of Congress and asked them to identify the document. Most thought it was Communist document. Can't you just hear Barbara Bush saying not to bother her beautiful mind?
Why doesn't the GOP go ahead and drop the N-word while they are at it.
How can they let this RACIST box to go out, with no sound from the media or Obama, yet a stupid phrase like "lipstick on a pig" gets 24-7 coverage.
I am ready to FIGHT - but what are the Democratic "leaders" doing about this?
The DLC, DNC, and Democratic Party should be out there on Monday attacking the RACISM.
Sorry, but I am mad, and it is Sunday, but I still say f*** them and may they go to hell.

Lou Dobbs: "My wife will love this!"
Lou Dobbs kicked off the Value Voters Forum this morning in Washington, DC. Bob has the opportunity to serve Barackfast, er, Breakfast to Lou as he came off the stage.
Lou smiled and said, "My wife will love this."
If we were liberal journalists playing fast and loose with quotes, we might write that Lou said, "Every woman in America needs a box."
Of course, we think they do!

On the other hand it just may be that the 5% of the knuckleheads that haven't made up their mind yet (the ignorant Americans that pull the election one way or the other) just might "catch on" to all the lies, etc of the rePIGs. Of course, that would require a Press doing their job - and an assurance the next election is not rigged. They stole the 2000 and 2004 election, why wouldn't they steal the 2008? They have to cover up a lot of criminal activity - and also they want to start a war with Iran, etc. So, it just might be a toss up. Embrace sanity in hopes that just once sanity rules the day, or get ready to, as one young actor said yesterday, to live out a bad Disney movie.
Then, to help pay her salary, Barack requested (but didn't get) a $1.1 million earmark for the hospital.
Eventually, Michelle resigned from the VP position, to campaign for Barack. The hospital has not sought to fill the position.
I'd love to see reporters question Barack Obama about this.
Obviously, McCain and Palin have their share of scandals -- but Obama is no better. He's a crook -- but a more eloquent and charismatic crook than most.
Another rove $4.25/hour ignorant dittohead accomplishing nothing.
But there is something awaiting that never fails - bad karma.
Enjoy!
no. republicans.
I do not like these people very much.
Hopefully "YES"
Another is... " IN OUR DAILY LIVES, DO WE REWARD FAILURE AMOUNG OUR CHRIDEN, LOVED ONES, FRIENDS AND CO-WORKERS?"
I would hope the answer was "NO"
Those that agree should and must vote for Obama.
Those that agree but do not vote for Obama will have pay a high price for the loss of their freedoms...
When will the Amerian people come to that conclustion?
And when will the American Press report on the true conduction of our polical conduction?
The American Facist Movement under the direction of the New Republican Fascist Party, i.e. the Republican party under the control of bush and now john mccain.
Don't agree... you have no feather to look thasn in john mccain choose of VP!
OT: Try and catch the interview on CSPAN with TomDispatch (saw it yesterday). These guys have it going on pretty good. They detail the slaughter and massacre of the Iraqi's as the GOP plan to take over the oil fields - thank GOD (or Allah, Jah, whatever) that the Iraqi's are fighting back.
Over 1 million innocent Iraqis (mainly women and children) have paid with their lives - yet the Iraqi's understand that the primary goal of the US is to steal their oil and provide permanent bases (58 at last count) as a platform to widen the war to Iran, etc. The period of the Bush administration will surely go down as the darkest days in American history. People in the future will be "blown" away by the ignorance of our country.
Like I said, dittoheads are racist rat bastards, I wouldn't give 'em the time of day.
But I agree with you - a lawsuit should be forthcoming.
At some point those of us on the left will have to come face to face with the same choices that German Jews in the 1930's had to face. Do they stay and continue to believe that their beloved country, one of great culture and literature, would eventually wake up and see what was happening, or do they get the hell out. How many Germans would have voted for Hitler if he had campaigned on a promise of exterminating their neighbors in gas chambers, starting a world war, and nearly destroying Germany?
Sinclair Lewis wrote in the 30's, "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the American flag and carrying a cross."
We all talk about this being a crucial election, but we frame it in terms of jobs, the economy, the environment. Maybe we should start telling the truth - that it's an election between fascism and democracy. Vote for Obama and the Democrats and you're voting to continue democracy. Vote for McCain and the Republicans and you're voting for fascism.
They say that alcoholics have to reach the very bottom before they do something about it. Maybe that's true for countries too.
shows the Christianist right wingers for the hateful, lying bigots they are.
Is there no limit to slime from the right? This racist tactic says it all. Waffles or pancakes are purely Republicans with no decency. How many Americans will be taken in for the THIRD TIME?????
