The RePUKES have not yet rolled out Reverend Wright ads. When they do, how do we ATTACK back !!
And I don't want to hear a wussy talk about taking a high road, because they are going to unleash every piece of crap they have. And just responding with more ads about how the R's are bad on the economy or just how they are trying to distract from the real issues won't cut it. They know the presidential vote is our most personal vote, so they WILL roll out Wright and they WILL use it to make Obama look like a crazy angry black man left wing black panther party extremist type. When they roll out Wright, Team Obama needs to ATTACK BACK and go on OFFENSE with Keating 5, McCain's embrace of Hagee and that other nutty preacher, and every single one of Palin's RADICAL and INSANE pentecostal church nutjob ideas, like the Iraq War is God's plan, no choice for girls brutally raped and impregnated by vicious criminals, and every single dirty piece of corrupt shit these corrupt assholes have ever done ! What do others honestly think about how Team Obama should react to the Reverend Wright attack line that is sure to come?

29. Ditto. Someone needs to drag out some of the far, far, far left to Alaska tapes of her fundie
Edited on Wed Sep-17-08 09:22 PM by 1Hippiechick
minister and question what SHE heard in church all the years SHE sat there. Even better if there were a clip of her speaking in tongues. The denominatinos are split on that "gift".

2. I think the Rev. Wright thing is old news, having been done to death months ago.
I don't know how much more mileage they can get out of him at this point. And anyhow, Caribou Barbie has her own share of loony clergymen she'd have to explain, if it came to that.

3. Bring up John Hagee, Rod Parsley, Phil Gramm. Also add Sarah Palin's
link to the Alaskan Independence Party, the one that demands Alaska leaving the USA.

16. Exactly. Yo McDouchebagg, I double dog dare you to bring up Wright...
Also, Sarah's church hosted the jews for jesus founder and has other "irregularities" that make it look like a cult.

4. I really don't think that the McCain camp wants to go the preacher route with Palin's pastor

Don't think they want to go there.

5. Maybe Obama should run a pre-emptive strike by discussing Wright and defusing the argument
I think this would be the best way to deal with it so it doesn't appear that Obama is running away and afraid to confront the issue. He should deal withit in the context of a retrospective of the campaign primary season and what he learned, warts and all.

26. I agree.
This is going to be rough water to negotiate regardless of when it comes out. Obama could take a proactive approach and state directly in one of his speeches that they will try to use this to smear him in the upcoming weeks. He could lay out his position first so the pukes have to refute it rather than Obama having to refute their claims. If he lays down very clearly his side of the story, the initial impact from the pukes will be decreased. He will still be hit, but he will know which part of his body to block, and the blow will be diminished because of this. Depending on how well he can state his position, he may even cause the pukes' blow to just glance off of him rather than truly sink in.

The problem with waiting for them to bring it up and then reacting is that we are almost forced into the mud, just where they have been trying to get us the entire time. No doubt they will try to employ this tactic as close to Nov. 4 as possible, thus taking attention again away from the real issues and forcing the focus onto an "extremist" Obama. If they do attack back with the Plain religious issues they will be called sexist, they will be called defensive, and they be left with few options aside jumping into the mud at precisely the time they should be as far away from the pigs and their mess as possible.

It's a very well run campaign, but when I know someone has info like they have against Obama, and that they are planning on bringing it out, I'd cut them off and broach the topic on my own and clear the air as much as possible from my end. This will cause the pukes attacks to land in an arena already familiar with the idea and will decrease their impact. Obama needs to state that he realizes by saying what he is saying that the pukes will likely quote his statments in their ad's, but that he feels the air should be made clear of this before the most important days of this election are upon both his and the Liar's campaigns.

7. Better yet, keep burying mcPOW/Tundra.
They are flailing right now, don't give them a chance to get up. Kick them again, and again. Don't let them get another news cycle.

Obama/Biden have been on the offense for two weeks, mcPOW/Tundra have been in retreat, keep it that way!

12. We can watch the media pastorbait again......
and pull out the Jews for Jesus, the Hagees, etc...

I mean, when people are losing their homes, and their 401Ks have shrunk to a point of nonrecognition, if they are going to care about some rehash news (no matter who wasn't Paying attention, believe me when I say that Rev. Wright broke through and was everywhere).

14. Obama may have attended Wright's church, but Palin is MARRIED to a secessionist.
Dueling "hate 'merka" ads. Finger lickin' good.

22. Exactly
Roll out the tape from Churchy Spice's congregation, and once again, old news will be trumped by new, legitimately whacked-out news that sticks to those morons for days. I hope they're dumb enough to do it soon, but I'm guessing that'll come out after Obama/Biden hand McCrap/Churchy Spice their asses in the debates four times over.

32. If they can get their hands on a tape, something from the "Jews for Jesus sermon" would be great.

21. Dead horse that has been debunked. Wrights words were taken out of context.
all obama has to do is show a clip of pat robertson saying those very words after 9/11 (that the U.S. deserved to be attacked).. he was the one wright was quoting.

Edited on Wed Sep-17-08 09:06 PM by backscatter712
Now you know why they're not bringing up Rev. Wright.

One, it's old news.

Two, Hagee, Parseley and Kroon make Wright look sane and well-balanced in comparison. We can show multiple examples of misogyny, anti-semitism, other various forms of bigotry and batshit insanity.

28. The one good thing about having Moosealini on the Repuke ticket
Is that her psychotic, dominionist, anti-semitic, homophobic church, and videos of not just her preachers, but herself preaching sermons, effectively takes Rev. Wright off the table.
