J-Dog..stop spurting your and half truths..you fit in well with the republican party..you love to spin stories, to seem knowledgeable….Why don.t you check out Vets 2 Vote.com and see the many measures McCain has rejected for the very men he said he’ll take care of…Obama is fluent in more than one language..and his mother nor Barack (he lived with his mother only as a small child) were never actively Muslim…stop telling that lie!…Kissinger DID agree to sit with terrorists leaders…why don’t you check out the press quote on Factcheck.org..stating Kissingers agreement with talking with Iran? What should frighten you is the idea we should keep at war with Iraq, till we win…at what cost?…What exactly are we STILL trying to win?…. If we listen to McMoron, will be at war with Russia, Iran, and just spank Afghanistan and disrepect NATO allies…making more unneeded discourse. Washington agrees..even ignorant Bush, that the threat is Afghanistan…check your facts!…The only people that listen to your lies is other republicans..that are willing at any cost.. to win. So, be afraid..very afraid of the choice you have clearly made….Me and every other Americans that want what is best for this Nation, will sleep well!
FIRST OF ALL, IT TAKES A REAL MAN TO SAY WHEN SOMEONE IS RIGHT…ESPECIALLY YOUR OPPONENT…. BUT WE NEED A PRESIDENT WHO IS LIVING IN THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE NOT THE PAST…. SEN JOHN MCCAIN IS STILL LIVING IN THE PAST…..STORIES OF THE PAST AND PAST PRESIDENT…. WE KNOW WHAT HAPPEN BACK THEN.. THATS WHY WE NEED A CHANGE…..SEN.OBAMA IS THAT CHANGE….J-DOG YOU ARE WHAT IS WRONG IN THIS COUNTRY….THIS COUTNRY IS BUILT ON DIFFERNT RACE AND GENDER,,,WE NEED A PRESIDENT WHO SPEAKS DIFFERENT LANGUAGE.. SEN.OBAMA IS A VERY SMART MAN…. WE NEED CHANGE….. ANOTHER THING… J-DOG.. YOU SAID MOST PRESIDENT WANT SIT AND TALK TO A KNOW TERRIOST….. THAT IS WHAT WENT WRONG….THEY DID NOTHING….LOOK WHAT HAPPEN…
BARACK HAD INTERESTING POINTS AND SO DID MCCAIN. HAVE TO WAIT TILL THE NEXT DEBATE. NO SARAH PALIN, WHATS UP WITH THAT BIDEN WAS THERE. IS THE MCCAIN CAMPAIGN SHIELDING HER AGAIN? IF YOU ARE EXPECTED TO TAKE OVER AS NEXT PREZ DON’T YOU THINK YOU WOULD BE THERE? AT LEAST ONE INTERVIEW COME ON.
Travers, I always said you were crazy, lol. My favorite minutes:
9:45: ”You said…you were wrong! You said…you were wrong!!!”—Obama
9:53: ”You don’t do that…you don’t say that out loud!”–John Mccain ROTFLMAO!!!!!!
10:00 p.m.: ”I’ve got a bracelet too…”—Obama
10:08: ”Ahkmadinejskdjobjsbsl…Ahdkkdsiodsakds….Ahmadinejad”—John McCain HI-Freakin-LARIOUS!!!!!!
10:09: McCain does have a point about the precondition though…
I loved when McCain said, “You don’t say that out loud,” and I loved when Obama said, “I’ve got a braclet too.” I thought that was when their patience really began wearing thin and the debate began getting interesting.
Two additional observations … What was McCain trying to accomplish by not looking Barack in the eyes? … How come I never realized that Obama is really HOT?
I FEEL OBAMA DID VERY WELL AT THE DEBATE LAST NIGHT, WHEN MCCAIN TRIED TO TWIST OBAMA’S WORDS, OBAMA WAS RIGHT ON HIM IT SEEM TO ME THAT MCCAIN THINKS BECAUSE HE’S MORE EXPERIENCED HE WOULD BE BETTER FOR THE COUNTRY, CONSIDERING WHAT THE ECONOMY IS GOING THROUGH NOW MORE EXPERIENCE SHOULD HAVE KEPT AND EYE ON OUR MONEY. OBAMA IS EXPERIENCE ENOUGH THAT HE WILL NOT TAKE HE’S PRESIDENCY LIKELY AND WILL PUT THOSE IN POSITION WHO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. MCCAIN SEEMED LIKE AN ANGRY OLD MAN, TO ME HE SEEM TO KEEP ATTACKING OBAMA KEPT AFTER THE DEBATE LAST NIGHT HE DID NOT SHAKE HANDS WITH OBAMA SINCERELY, AND MCCAIN’S RUNNING MATE IS A JOKE AND AND INSULT TO US WOMEN, (PLEASE) EX-PRESIDENT CLINTON LEFT THIS COUNTRY RUNNING GREAT PRESIDENT BUSH HAS US GOING DOWN THE TOILET THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO VOTED HIM IN THERE AND THOSE WHO FORGET THE PAST ARE DOOM TO REPEAT IT, AND I REALLY FEEL FOR MY CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN’S FUTURE MCCCAIN IS BUSH. OBAMA’S NOT JUST AFRICAN AMERICAN BUT THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS WITH ALL OF US IN MIND. WE CAN’T TAKE FOUR MORE YEARS OF THIS MESS THE REPUBLICANS GOT US IN. IT’S GOING TO TAKE A LITTLE TIME BUT I BELIEVE OBAMA CAN PUT THIS COUNTRY BACK ON TRACK.
Obama smashed McCain on foreign politics word for word, McCain was so upset that the viewers could see all his racism, It was so bad that he could not maintain his composure. I believe that Obama’s attitude, posture, mannerism, and tones were Presidential.
Dear Honor, with all do respect, Kissenger is not running for President. Barak Hussein Obama is! You are willing to elect a President in a Post 911 world that has ties to Islam? Please! Obama is also the senator with the most liberal voting record ever!
He is pro-abortion. Over 40 million innocents have perished in this country since Roe v. Wade. As a Christian man, I could not, nor would I EVER vote for a pro-abortion candidate such as Barak Hussein Obama! He would have the power to appoint supreme court justices and believe me, he would pick the most liberal.
A socialist liberal who speaks perfect Arabic and can recite the Koran. Are you serious?
PLEASE REMEBER TO WEAR NO OBAMA TSHIRTS, HATS, PINS ECT WHEN YOU GO TO VOTE. IT IS CONCIDERED CAMPAINING AND IS ILLEGAL WITHIN X AMOUNT OF FEET OF THE POLLS. THEY ARE BANKING ON THE FACT THAT WE DO NOT KNOW THIS LAW, YOU WILL BE TURNED AWAY!!! THEY ARE BANKING ON THE FACT THAT YOU WILL NOT COME BACK TO WAIT AGAIN IN THE LONG LINES.
BE AWARE, PASS THE WORD AND ROCK THE VOTE!
J-Dog…You’re so right..Kissinger isn’t..but he’s one of McCain’s key advisor’s…which he will listen to…and he was lying (again)…This press report is from MSNBC on the statement from Barack Obama on his religion..
updated 9:49 a.m. CT, Mon., Jan. 21, 2008
COLUMBIA, S.C. – Barack Obama is stepping up his effort to correct the misconception that he’s a Muslim now that the presidential campaign has hit the Bible Belt.
At a rally to kick off a weeklong campaign for the South Carolina primary, Obama tried to set the record straight from an attack circulating widely on the Internet that is designed to play into prejudices against Muslims and fears of terrorism.
“I’ve been to the same church _ the same Christian church _ for almost 20 years,” Obama said, stressing the word Christian and drawing cheers from the faithful in reply. “I was sworn in with my hand on the family Bible. Whenever I’m in the United States Senate, I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. So if you get some silly e-mail … send it back to whoever sent it and tell them this is all crazy. Educate.” Now what?..Are you still going to keep stating that fallacy over and over, till someone other than you believe it? ..I won’t even bother with discussing abortion with you…but just know…the Republicans passed a 35 million dollar bill for planned parenthood and George Bush’s Advisors..Alberto Gonzalez…passed bills for underage females to have abortions without parental knowledge…so i’m wondering….did you vote Republican?…*sighs*..J-Dogg..McCain only says Obama is a liberal with no proof? Do you even know how they recognize who is and who is not? You’re beliefs are unfounded my friend..it’s all rhetoric…Obama is NOT just for abortion..He has strong stipulations with it…He’s not lying to you and saying he’s against it…and then surrounding himself with people who vote measures for it haphazardly…I’m saddened that you hold on to these twisted facts..allowing yourself to be duped…so vote for McCain…he’ll tell you what you want to hear at any cost…so you can stay on your high horse..while we other Christians, live our lives with Obama as our President..
Dear Honor,
Are you serious? A Muslim can lie through his teeth about his religion if it ultimately results in the advancement of Islam. Barak Hussein Obama stated out of his own mouth to a CNN correspondant concerning his “Muslim religion”. I don’t know about you, but that is a slip of the tongue that I would not make. You say he went to a Christian Church? Ha! Let me rephrase all of this so that you can understand it. Let’s say that McCain went to a church that was pro-white and preached hatred for blacks and jews. Let’s say McCain went there for 20 years, do you think that he would have a chance of getting elected? Make sense? Oh, and the abortion issue. Obama supported a bill in Illinois that would a allow a doctor to kill a child after being born if the abortion was botched. Liberal? Yes. Insane? Yes. Let’s face it. Obama has the most liberal voting record in the senate… ever. I would love for a black person to be president. I just don’t want a liberal Arabic speaking one with loose ties to Islam. Understand?
*laughs*…J-dogg..ever heard the line…” if you stand for nothing, you fall for anything”?…You’re so angry… Take a deep breath…You believe every negative thing you’ve heard about Obama…Why is that?.. OntheIssues.org..gives an extensive reading of Obama’s voting stance in Illinois and his insight on an extremely touchy subject for many Americans….Let me apologize..I’ve attacked you personally…and let’s just agree to disagree..I will never understand your views…they seem unfair…and slightly askew…You won’t ever see my way..for reasons apparent to you…I am proud of my choice to vote for Obama..and even prideful you’re so passionate…even if you’re wrong..*smile*..Be well brother..I hear you….I’m simply just not listening…Rock the Vote!!

Honor,
I am not angry. I am concerned with your last comment though. “I hear you, I’m simply just not listening”. WOW! I know that you like Obama because he is black and really that is okay. I would love to see a black man or a hispanic man be President. I just don’t want one who holds to the socialist views that Obama has.
“I know that you like Obama because he is black and really that is okay”…??.That statement is just foolish..I guarantee you…I researched and educated myself on BOTH candidates….Move on…J-dogg..You’re proving over and over..You have to win..but NOT for the RIGHT reasons….Now Obama is a socialist? He wants the United States to mimick the Soviet Union and China economy? Are you serious?!! OMG…*laughs*..That’s wild…Now Obama wants a Marxist-type society…PLEASE vote everybody…These blogs are becoming ridiculous…Be Well Stephanie and LadyofWisdom it’s been great blogging with you two. Obama 08!!
Barak Hussein Obama believes in redistribution of wealth….. socialism at its finest my friend…. keep researching. Check out several news channels and newspapers….not just BET.
*laughs*….Wow..You really are uncouth..On a better note….I hope everybody gets out and vote! Go Obama !!
