Presidential Politics Get Ugly in California
October 17th, 2008

Presidential politics get ugly in California.
Sacramento County Republican leaders finally took down material from the party’s official Web site that encouraged people to “Waterboard Barack Obama.” The site also sought to link the Democratic presidential candidate to Osama bin Laden – material that even offended state GOP leaders. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who’s been pushing the party to appeal to more people, chastised party officials for its handling of the site – that included materials that ranged from depicting Obama in a turban to attacks on his wife, Michelle Obama. “In the governor’s view, it’s completely and totally inappropriate,” said Julie Soderlund, a Schwarzenegger spokeswoman. Hector Barajas, a California Republican Party spokesman, said that while the Democrats weren’t innocent when it came to dirty politics, in this case the party might have gone too far. Barajas said the campaign should be about who is ready to be the nation’s commander-in-chief, that Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain has never questioned Obama’s patriotism, that he’d ask local leaders to take down the offensive content. By Tuesday night, much of the questionable material had been removed, replaced with political cartoons attacking Obama.

naw she di’ent!
did katie call obama a boy?
its on!
Joy, sorry to bust your bubble but we all have something or the other in us. By now, there is no pure race. Amalgamation of the races for centuries has seen to that. My grandmother was half Choctow Indian, but I am still African American or BLACK, and so are you. Get over yourself and accept your blackness. Obama has.
duh everone knows what you tried to inform th world… so your gramma was half whatever…….that made her bi-racial. but its not 100 years ago. what bubble, B,,,,,, white mother and white grandparents raised this BI-RACIAL man. get used to the word.
Ya OBAMA
I can’t believe the magnitude of IGNORANCE in these United States. Don’t the infiltraters against Obama know that it just strengthens his campaign?
Too address joy and umlaw you both have a strong bit of ignorance in you bi racial is just another title to try to down play who you really are the sooner you accept the fact that you are black the better that doesnt mean your mother or fathers race plays any less a role in who you are but it’s reality baby your white mother made a black child love it and leave it alone. like some one said earlier OBAMA has accepted who he is why are you so ashamed of who you are! And UMLAW is just a ignorant fool and his ignorance will keep him in the low life position he will always be in a RACIST no matter what job you have that one will always keep you below everyone else! God will not let you suceed in life with hate in your heart! thats why OBAMA will win and you will eat your words! If you focus more on living your life and loving your skin then you will spend less time being ashamed of your race and hating on others!
david u stop u don’t know how to spell right (writing) go back to school u just don’t want the man get the votes he got minds umlaw go to hell.
I WANT YOU ALL TO REMEBER THIS STATEMENT. THERE IS SOMETHING FISHY ABOUT OBAMA. i DON’T KNOW PEOPLE. WELL IF HE WINS, ITS FINE WITH ME. i …….I JUST DON’T KNOW. …….I DON’T KNOW. MAYBE I’M WRONG. I VOTED FOR MRS CLINTON. i JUST DON’T KNOW. WELL WE ALL WILL KNOW MAYBE 10 YEARS FROM NOW, BUT REMBER THIS COMMENT 10 YEARS FROM NOW. I’TS A FEELING THAT I CAN’T SHAKE . i WILL NOT VOTE. FOR ANYONE. LET THE BEST MAN WIN. I WON’T NOTHING TO DO WITH VOTEING NEITHER PARTY INTO OFFICE.
UMlaw, you don’t make any sense what so ever!!
Your comments are FULL of BS!!!
It is my opinion that the these actions and activities really makes it cerebrally clear to us that we are a powerful people. This is proven by all of the enmity that you see and hear from the Republican’s. They are demoralized, delusional and desperate. They will do anything to keep what they believe is power over the least of us. We can’t let them.
Here what Harriet Tubman and Obama said for us all to aspire to do…
What Harriet Tubman inspired us to do and never forget…
If you hear the dogs, keep going.
If you see the torches in the woods, keep going.
If they’re shouting after you, keep going.
Don’t ever stop. Keep going.
If you want a taste of freedom, keep going.
What Obama inspired us to remember…
“We’re not going to be bullied,
We’re not going to be smeared,
We’re not going to be lied about…
don’t believe in coming in second.”
We really do need Change!
David!, you REALLY sound brain DEAD!!!
Your even NOT worth responding too!!
Leave this site immediately!!!!
THAT’S STUPID!!! THE REPUBLICANS ARE GETTING SCARED SO THEY WILL COME UP WITH ANYTHING. OBAMA WILL ALWAYS HAVE MY VOTE NO MATTER WHAT THE HECK THEY SAY ABOUT HIM. HE AND MICHELLE IS AN INSPIRATION TO ME AND A WHOLE LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE. THE PUBLIC IS USE TO SEEING US IN A NEGATIVE WAY. THEY ARE AFRAID TO SEE A BLACK PERSON WITH POWER. SLAVERY IS OVER, SO GET OVER IT. OBAMA 08″. OBAMA O8……………………..

This is for UMlaw racist a**. Obama is not only part black he is also part white which makes him biracial. You are not only hating his black side, you are hating the spawn of your own people because Obama has white roots also dumbass. So hating Obama is hating part of yourself. Now let that marinate.

Yo my black brothers and sisters, open your eyes and see that WE is the racists in this election! Almost all blacks be voting for obama cuz hes black too. What if the white people did the same? Some of us needs to vote for the other guy so that we doesnt look like racists and thats why my family will vote for mccain. Obama could lose because of our racisms and whites dont say it, but they be saying they support obama, but they be voting for mccain cuz noone will be watching them vote in the boof.
