Weird spam I got about Obama

[mzmolly]

The supposed sender is a person whom I do NOT know. When I reported the email as "spam" it auto-deleted, so I can't get the actual header info and find out where this email 'ACTUALLY' came from.

Has anyone else received this garbage? I'm not on a Hillary mailing list, nor am I on an Obama mailing list so I'm confused as to where this came from.

Here it is, in all it's glory.

I am a sustaining member of the TDP-- if OBAMA is the nominee--- I CANNOT VOTE FOR HIM--I may have to stay home-- why?

The Black Value System of Trinity United Church of Christ-- the Church the Obama is a member of-- it is a separatist attitude-- if the word White were substituted everywhere the word Black is, people would say it is a piece of racist propaganda—

I also resent the BVS attitude about middleclass ness-- as if it is dirty to be a member of the middle class—a membership I am proud to hold— How can a man who lives in a million dollar home understand what it means for a single woman to live from paycheck to paycheck?

Members of Trinity United Church of Christ must adopt the church’s “State of Purpose” and abide by the “Black Value System” of the Trinity United Church of Christ.

Perhaps you should read it for yourself (they display it proudly on the internet) and see exactly what OBAMA REALLY STANDS FOR!

Will his priority be for All Americans? Or for those Americans who are above the middle class? For All Americans? Or just for Black Americans? What about allegiance pledged to Africa—where does that leave America -- Second?

Check on the internet search Obama, Trinity United Church of Christ—see for yourself—

The Republican’s will kill us with this in November anyway—

I suspect others may get this too? If you do, please post the actual sender info so we can research.

It looks like the RW is afraid of Obama? Now, they are calling him a racist. :eyes:

1. They are very afraid...

he's the only one that can soundly beat McCain in November, so they are trying to head off any chance he is our nom.

2. Other than the "TDP" thing

that reads like an already-debunked email sent out about a month ago. Check out snopes. What is "TDP" anyway? Texas Democratic Party? Tennessee????

6. I just asked the same thing. It's so bizarre?

I want to know who the heck is sending it and trace the owner of the IP, but I can't because my hotmail was not set up to capture the actual sender info. :(

[mzmolly]

3. BY the way what the hell is the "TDP"? Note all the weird acronyms?

:crazy:

[Kitty Herder]

7. Sounds like white-supremacist garbage to me.

4. see snopes

9. Thanks. What bothers me is this method of campaigning by someone?

It's a RW tactic to be sure, but I want to know WHO is sending this !#@ thing?

[blogslut]

5. What is TDP?

n/t

[mzmolly]

12. I haven't a clue.

:shrug:

[NoPasaran]

18. Could be Texas Democratic Party

Or Total Doofus Poboys

[Barack_America]

19. Texas Democratic Party.

Is my guess. That's what comes up first with an "TDP Obama" google.

[mzmolly]

24. Ahhh, thanks.

:hi:

8. Here's the snopes link on this:

10. "The Republican’s will kill us with this in November anyway—"

IMO, no Democrat would say this.

[mzmolly]

20. Agreed. It looks like one of their typical RW email spams. This is part of the RW strategy

every 4 years. It is apparently effective? I remember the Kerry Swift Boat emails as well. I think we have to start doing some real digging on these things. I could kick myself for not having my "headers" set to full in my email.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

25. Agreed. But they WILL hit with it.

And with every other dirt, real or imagined, that they can dig up or fabricate.

No matter who we nominate, Republicans hate him/her, and will attack with every dirty trick they can muster.

November is not a "walk in the park" for either party.

I know which candidate I'm hoping for (third choice after Kucinich and Edwards), but will vote for any Democrat.

11. "for a single woman to live from paycheck to paycheck"

If this were from a RW source, it would never include that comment. It is clearly intended to appeal to working-class women, who are supposedly HRC's base.

I'm guessing Mark Penn or some other operative.

[mzmolly]

16. I think it may be designed to look like it's from a Democrat, but it's far too ignorant

presentation wise, IMHO.

[lurky]

22. Maybe.

The 4th grade writing style does remind me of something out of the DU Hate Mailbag. If it were too polished, though, it might not seem "authentic" to the target audience.

13. Rum, Romanism, and Rebellion!

The yellow elephants are in Know-Nothing mode...

[HughMoran]

14. This BS or something similar has been circulating for a while

It's sickening to the core to think that the RW scumbags can't ever fight someone on substance, so they have to try to tear them down in a personal way. As if their crazy RW churches should not be criticized for spewing unAmerican hatred :eyes:

[mzmolly]

21. Excellent point. When you can't win on the issues - make shit up.

It really pisses me off.

[MethuenProgressive]

15. The "he's Muslim!" didn't work so they're trying "he's Christian!"?

There's lots that's troublesome about his mixing his right-wing faith in with his politics, but this email's fulla beans.

[Coexist]

17. ...

[Barack_America]

23. Well, that is a real e-mail address with a real name attached...

Apparently a middle-aged female Democrat in Texas. (google it)

But whether or not that person is actually sending these e-mails, I don't know.

[mzmolly]

26. My google search returns an error?

Edited to remove personal info as I don't know if the sender was actually involved.

[Barack_America]

29. That's odd.

When I click the link you've provided, it takes me to the hit that I got.

???

I'd rather not post the link here because the we don't know if the woman in question is really responsible for this.

[mzmolly]

32. Very strange! I wonder if my google filter is screening ?

I think someone is using her name. Someone who doesn't care for her? She does come up as a donor to the "TDP" http://txprod.ethics.state.tx.us/public/201400noadd.pdp

[mzmolly]

33. I had it on safe search and apparently google blocked the address?

I'm going to edit her personal info until I learn more?

[mzmolly]

28. I did find this when I separated the name in my search.

Jo Ann XXXXXXX

Edited to remove personal info as this person is likely not involved.

Someone doesn't like Ms. XXXXXXX presume?

[Barack_America]

31. Yeah, that's what I wonder.

It looks like she is an active Democrat, but I can't find anything that associates her with either Obama or Hillary. So I wouldn't doubt it if someone else has sent this out and not her.

[rox63]

27. This is a much-debunked anti-Obama spam email

Snopes is your friend...

[mzmolly]

30. I never believed in the authenticity of the email. The snopes links miss my point.

My problem is that someone is out there sending these emails, and I'd like it if we knew who?
