Liar!
Update: Seems this was all a lie. Sorry folks, but I was traveling 12 hours before I could get to a point to make the update.
Obama asked his followers to go out and get “in their face”, speaking of independents and McCain-Palin supporters. We know the leftward fevered swamps can be a trashy place (remember all the sick rumors about the Palin daughter’s pregnancy and their new baby Trigg?), but this shows the fascist nature that permeates way too much of the Obama movement:
A knife-wielding man robbed a McCain-Palin campaign volunteer and etched a “B†into her face after he saw a McCain bumper sticker on the woman’s car, Pittsburgh police said.
…
Todd handed the man $60 she had in her pocket and stepped away from him, investigators said. The man then noticed the bumper sticker on the woman’s car, which was parked in front of the ATM. The man became very angry, made comments to Todd about John McCain and punched her in the back of the head, knocking her to the ground, police said.
The fact is the liberals have been trying to oppress and threaten McCain-Palin supporters. They have done it in the media, through attempted legal action and other ways. All the while claiming the GOPs focus on national security and the threat of terrorism is somehow akin to scaring people into voting GOP. I wonder what this new ‘face’ of the Obama campaign will do for the vote. Is there a silent wave of anger about to crash onto DC, the Political Industrial Complex and their ‘Chosen One’?
If one looks at the polls today at RCP, sadly the answer is maybe not. But if the McCain-Palin supporters and the Obama opposition (not necessarily the same group) get out and vote, they may send a signal to the democrats there are limits to what is acceptable in a candidate. Yes, some conservatives can be over the top and a bit pushy, but clearly there are just as many on the left with the same problem – and then some.
Powell is not a conservative. The first president he voted for was a Democrat and he is a supporter of affirmative action and is prochoice. He was chosen by Bush for Secretary of State because of his experience in foreign relations, not because he was a strong conservative. I think he is supporting Obama because he is black as much as anything. and to hear him tell it because he does not want to see anymore conservative judges.
As for Fried, who cares? These people are Washington elitist jumping on the gravy train. It is interesting how many liberals seem comfortable with people they normally despise sucking up to their charlatan of a candidate. Tells you a lot about them and him.
As for why this girl would have done this, perhaps she is emotionally disturbed.
Why do you think ACORN is giving people drugs and whiskey in return for bogus registrations? Do you think that might have something to do with inciting violence?
When Obama’s former minister stood in his church and accused white people of creating the AIDS virus to kill black people, did he think that would lead to racial harmony? Why didn’t Obama leave that church if he is really interested in being the post racial candidate? He did not walk away from that hate mongering racist until it was politically expedient to do so. There is no such connection between this girl and McCain. She was just a kid working as a staffer.
I wonder if we could find some internet Roach powder like boric acid?????

NBC: Obama spending $293,000 an hour in October
http://hotair.com/archives/2008/10/24/nbc-obama-spending-293000-an-hour-in-october/
The one curious omission in the report?
They don’t mention what the DNC is contributing to the campaign. The article closes on the RNC spending 5x the amount McCain’s campaign spent Oct 1-15. But the article totally disregards the need to report the DNC’s spending for the same period.
Odd?
Assuming a roughly direct co-relation, if the Obama campaign spent $105M in 15 days, then 5x that would be $525M from the Democrats, for a grand total of $630M in 15 days, compared to a grand total of just $55M for the Republicans.
So if we assume the Democrats’ own grandiose policies of “spread the wealth” while allowing them double the expenditures of the Republicans to achieve what should be a sizable spread in the polls given twice the funds.
But throw in a messiah, the MSM, endorsement after endorsement, Colin Powell the would-be Mini-Me, and their supposedly kick-ass policies, that should still leave $520M from 15 days for “spreading the wealth” without risking any drop whatsoever in the polls.
Taking that a step further, what might they have done with that money instead? How much can $520M help America and Americans? How much can it help our Joe the Plumbers or even Obama’s 95 percentile?
Could they use it to buy up all the bad mortgages they inbred into our markets? Could they hand it to the US Treasury to offset the national debt? How about health care? Education? Inner city youth? Auto workers? Culture? The environment? Tax cuts? Aids research? Rwanda? The UN? Or any of their social causes?
Just one? Any one?
The Dems talk the talk real good, but they all walk like retards!

Since all but 2 of your examples involve stories that are several years old and occured well before the start of the 2008 election, I’ll assume you concede that the level of smearing in this election is far worse on the GOP side. If we are going to go that far back we might as well throw McCarthy’s communist witch-hunts to the list! This month alone we have the GOP and conservative sites like this discussing ad nausium rumors that Obama is a terrorist, Obama faked his birth certificate,
very little smearing on the GOP side, McCarthy, as you well know, was vindicated when the soviet union fell and the world learned that practically every single person that McCarthy accused of being a communist, was a communist. so don’t smear a good American.
Colin Powell is or should be respected, but he’s NOT a conservative, never has been. He is, apparently, a racist since he has endorsed Obama because, and only because, he is black.
no presidnetial (sic) candidate in the history of our country as ever won the election after trailing in the national polls two weeks before the election by as much as McCain is trailing right now
might want to look at the 2000 election.
I don’t think you can name a conservative that has called Obama a terrorist, just that he associates with known terrorists, surely you don’t deny that? Even Obama doesn’t deny that.
Dorf77, Perhaps as a substitute we could get the programmers of this blogging program to allow us to “ignore” posts from any poster we choose. Yahoo’s investment boards allow this. After you click “ignore” you never see postings from that person again. Adds a great deal to the quality of life.

Just one will do.
The Dems sure like to talk the talk, but they all walk like retards!
I saw at Hot Air that this young woman was formerly a Paulbot. That might explain a lot. She is obviously confused to say the least.
I loved that no presidential candidate in the history of our country blah blah blah…as if they did polls back when Lincoln was running.
Bush was behind as much as 3.8 in some polls the night before the election and Truman was trailing by 5.
I think that the polls are off this year just because there is so much variance between them. That does not mean that Obama is not ahead, but I don’t think we can be sure what the real numbers are.
They are weighting the polls differently this year and that might be throwing some of them off.
She is a McCain volunteer who carved a “B†on her face, gave herself a black eye and completely made up a story that a black Obama supporter attacked her simply because she supported McCain. Why else would she have done it other than to incite racial division and violence? I can’t wait to hear your theories.
Ah, I see. You’re thinking about why YOU would choose to do such a thing, which says far more about your (rather odious) nature than it does about her motive.
That said, a couple of her acquaintances were quoted as saying that she has in the past engaged in other falsehoods as a means of gaining attention. If true, then she has finally achieved her goal.
Apparently, she does not have “issues,” she has a lifetime (blankety-blank)ing subscription. Then again, if she’s a former Paulistinian, that might explain a lot.
As for “respected conservatives†endorsing Obama, let’s look at this week alone. If you won’t admit that Colin Powell and Charles Fried (President Reagan’s Solicitor General of the United States) are respected conservatives, then you are a lost cause.
1. Colin Powell is not a conservative; indeed, he publicly rejected the label way back in 1996. He is known to be slightly left of center.
2. I know a gentleman who worked for Fried back in the day; his comments about Fried are seldom complementary (mostly revolving around his ego and said ego’s need for constant stroking). He may be notionally conservative, but he is not widely respected (or, for that matter, widely known).
As for the polls, first thing to clear up. We don’t elect the president based on popular vote.
But supposed electoral blowouts of the sort being projected on CNN and MSNBC concurrently require very large popular vote majorities.
Also, many of the polls are oversampling Democrats by very wide margins–significantly above 2006 turnout, which was a disaster for the GOP.
This isn’t 2006. It looks more like 2000.
Remember, Bush won in 2000 despite losing the popular vote. As a result, national polls are not important. What is important is how the candidiates are polling in the so-called battle ground states. Obama is way ahead and increased his lead this week alone in every single one of them.
I see. Well, after all, you are including the imaginary voters registered by ACORN, so you may have a point.
John Edwards was right. There are two Americas. There’s my America, and there’s your America. We have, to use the hoary old term from family law court, “irreconciliable differences.”
Obama may “win” (read: steal) the election.
But he will never be my President. And Obama will not gather the fruits of my labors; I will simply not labor so hard, and I will trim back on the number of people I employ, the number of marketing/sales calls I make, the amount of money I make, and on my lifestyle for the duration. And I am not alone.
Gee, conman, what WILL you do when your mommy loses her job and has to give up her AOL account?
conman, norm
People from your side of the political spectrum used a special needs baby as a political weapon against Palin and it took weeks before it was sort of dropped. You are practicing double think if you really look at this campaign and say it was republicans doing the smearing.
hey aj…why not pull down this thread? is it because this is what qualifies for fact to you? by the way…wheres that tape you keep posting about? have you found the pink unicorn you keep looking for yet? you and your choir certainly do amuse me.
Mark:
I have it on good authority that ConMan and Norm are the same guy, a guy who lives in his momma’s basement at age 37 and has never dated a woman.
Your good authority is correct. I thought that was common knowledge, when I googled both of them, that’s what I found. Do you need a link?
Norm,
I don’t rewrite history. It was a fraud and I called it when it became known (and I could get off my plane).
Only liberals believe in rewriting propaganda and calling it history.
She did something similar while working for the Paul campaign claiming she was the victim of a tire slashing because she had a Paul bumper sticker. I hope she gets the help she needs, she’s a mess.
