I'm SEETHING - LTTE in local paper, and my response...
Edited on Sun Sep-07-08 06:45 AM by MANative
Obama degrades Constitution

In November, we will vote on who will lead this great country. We have a choice between a man who has spent most of his life defending the Constitution, or one who has spent more than half of his 46 years associating with those who condemn its government and would destroy the Constitution.

Whom do you vote for? A man committed to keeping money in your paycheck, or one who will take it out and is committed to failed tax plans? (Neither will change the price at a cash register.)

A man who believes we have the right to defend our home from invasion, or the man who has a history of voting against it?

One who asserts he is a U.S. citizen, or the other who asserts he is a citizen of the world? Where are their loyalties?

One who offers a gauntlet hand in a velvet glove, or one with velvet words? The cliche "Actions speak louder than words" is true, especially in forging alliances.

My response:

After what the Bush administration has done to the Constitution, you have the gall to call out Obama for not wanting nuts to wield unnecessary weapons against the rest of civilized society? You have the gall to call Obama an appeaser for wanting to use reasonable diplomacy after the cowboy tactics of Bush and his cabal? You have the gall to say that Obama will remove money from our paychecks after they have been COMPLETELY removed from at least 6.1% of Americans because of the disastrous economics policies of the Bush cabal? (And, you're WRONG, by the way, unless you make OVER $250,000 a year) If you think that we're not already "subjects" under the Bush cabal with the erosion of privacy rights and the explosion of domestic spying, you as big a wing nut as McCain is. As for laws not being written by Congress, what about the hundreds of "signing statements" that Bush has issued, gutting the very laws Congress has passed to try to keep a handle on this guy (and to APPEASE the increasingly furious American public). You, sir, are no real American!


:grr: I've got steam coming out of my ears!

edited to add - You can add your comments, too. Join me in calling out this whack job!!!!

8. You should also point out Pres. Reagan said he himself was a "citizen of the world" too.
Before the UN General Assembly, no less!

9. Well -
They've linked over to here. With a little bit of luck - maybe they'll see the light of how they are slaves to the Saudis via their continued support of George Bush. Maybe they'll see that Bush Co. cares more about CHILDREN in Iraq than he ever will for an American child. Maybe they'll wake up and see who REALLY hates America. It's Bush and Company folks. It's Bush and Company.

Those AMERICANS - good people that we simply disagree with politically - really ARE good people. However, they need to realize they are busting their asses for those NeoCons who don't care about them and who push the interests of the Saudis at their expense.

I'd have more respect if they were pushing a Buchanan/Buchanan (Pat and Bay) ticket. I don't agree with them either - but at least they are TRUE Conservatives who love the American people more than they do their forein interests and oil money.

Excuse me - I have to go Church now.

my response:

Is Sarah Palin hiding in plain sight? When will she speak on her own, answering questions concerning policy and issues? The right has gotten their new pet pit bull, but they can't quite let her out of the yard on her own. For a party SO CONCERNED with EXPERIENCE, they only want to have her cheerlead (because that IS her experience), not participate in the game. All the diatribe, innuendo, sarcastic 'humor', patent lies and distortions might seem appealing to those already supporting McCain...but, like any untruths, time is not their friend. McCain and his handlers know the value they get out of the POW mantra...let's see how the MIA label works with Palin.

12. The jig's up....
<<It has been brought to my attention that this page has been link at Denmocrat Underground.com .

DU.com is a message board designed to contain the far left wacky of the wackiest "democrats" and keep them isolated from saner sectors. Their vile bile and hatred of the USA is remarkable and evident in almost every post.

I report this because I'm sure most people will not realize the extreme views being posted here are all coming from one source.>>


"Wacky of the wackiest." "Vile bile." :rofl:

13. Fuck them. Stupid assholes.
If they want to have their thoughts be the solitary view, then they need to lock the fucking board. They are so in denial about what the entire country thinks of republicans.
