Biden / Palin VP Debate, Oct 2nd @ 9PM EST

[pinksirfidel]

Okay, I'm disgusted! Just catching up on the news for the day....

Palin's speech rally today--While speaking of the Ayers-Obama link, someone belted out loud "KILL HIM!" No one knows if he was referring to Obama or Ayers! ...and the crowd applauds.

Wooooww!! This is where the McCain camp has gone? Why aren't more people outraged!?! This is Bull!! I'm so pissed off that this election is going to dirt. People are loosing there houses, their heath care plans. People are struggling... and the McCain campaign is trying to BRING DOWN Obama personally? John McCain is NO John McCain in these last few months! Let's do what John McCain said (when he was himself) in the beginning of this campaign... "I will speak about the issues, people care about most! Personal attacks have no place in my campaign." These recent attacks are strategic, demeaning and some are border line racist (yup, i said it)!!

Can anyone link to the actual audio or video of the events so I can see or hear for myself?

I can see the McCain clip and it leaves me less than outraged. I'm not sure McCain even knew what had been shouted to respond to it even if he had wanted to. And most of the audience laughs at the suggestion that Obama is a terrorist, which I think it probably the correct response. It's a laughable suggestion.

And I think the point earlier wasn't that people shouldn't make fun of the GOP, it was that if they want to they shouldn't flip out when people make fun of their party/candidate. So if you want to bitch about how mean McCain is and they shouldn't make fun of Obama, you may want to consider the fact that 3/4 of your posts in this forum are attacks or ridiculing Republicans which have no base in any issue, or at least not any real understanding of any issue, whatsoever.

3/4 hmmm?? Ridiculing? Hey....not anyone's fault you are on the losing end.

And what's even more funny than that is McCain said the same thing this year and now by ignoring the issues and going for personal attacks is just a show at how desperate he is to right a sinking ship.

Yes, but plenty of other people have told you that it's retarded too. Next time start a thread called "Hillarious Palin Photoshop!1!11! Stupid Repulikans[sic]!!11!" so everyone who actually wants to discuss something halfway intelligent can ignore you more easily.


And just for kicks:

No wonder you're so worried about the economic crisis. You must have been in all sorts of debt before we ever heard about credit crunches and failing banks.

OOOOOOHHH....... such language...getting a little bent out of sorts over there?

But you know I'm not the one who has the name of cheese for a screen name and that truly was a cheesy retort...When in doubt curse a mofo out.

SUCH HATE!!! I LOVE IT!!!!....did you feel better after you said that? Need a smoke?


...but back to the issue at hand....


AHEM....pay attention....you saw McCain saying that he won't run negative ads right?

here is obama saying the same thing

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceHhRdaO_Gs

Now...Im going to need you to pay rreeeeeaaaallly close attention....what's the difference in what McCain said in 2000 vs what Obama said this year?

Come on now, really? I would guess that at least 9% of even this site gets the joke behind my screen name. Hint, it's a joke from a website 91% cooler than this and it's talking about the restaurant, not the cheese.

The only difference appears to be that it took McCain 8 years to break his promise and BHO 8 months to break his. Or if you're being really picky that McCain said his on a bus and Obama (like everything else intelligent sounding he has managed to say this year) read his off a teleprompter. And that's change you can believe in!

That you even responded to explain "Crackerbarrel" makes it all the more cheesier...

But anyways....no...that is not the point....we are going to have to do somethign about your listening skills...or you seriously are in denial and hate to hear the truth

The Main Idea of that passage is this...back in 2000 not only did McCain say that he would not go negative, but he also gave criticism and described the behaviors of candidates who do...

Let me spell it out for you... Hy-po-crite

What McCain said on The Straight Talk Express in 2000

MCCAIN: "Uh, I, I just have to rely on the good judgment of the voters not to buy into these negative attack ads. Sooner or later, people are going to figure out if all you run is negative attack ads you don't have much of a vision for the future or you're not ready to articulate it."

Talk about "Change" ...looks like he 'changed' his tactics since 2000....well that's what a good soldier does...he changes....hehe

[Drolefille]

Both candidates are running negative ads now. DS if you're so in far in the tank you can't think critically you're no better than the Rush Limbaugh fanatics who swear that Obama's gonna send all America's money to his family in Kenya to buy them new goats.

We get it, you're happy. Obama's in the lead. People like you are part of the problem, not the solution.

Reasonable call. I just skip over the posts of certain posters whose posts I've found add little to the discussion. (Sorry, DS.)

There's the picture off the office of the Alaska governor's website that its photoshopped from (she's making the peace sign and someone took her index finger off).

Thanks. I knew something didn't look right.

Huh. Interesting and thanks. Never having been to Alaska, I was basing my claim off of Target's website -- they specifically say "Currently, there are no Target stores in Alaska, Hawaii or Vermont." Maybe they're not open yet?

That's even more hilarious than her flipping the bird, since her mother is a warmonger.

Get the fuck over yourself. Racist? Jesus Christ, Obamanation is a bunch of batshit crazy lunatics.

First of all, I doubt the McCain campaign can do anything about people yelling things at their rallies. Classless on both counts but hardly McCain's fault.

You're pissed about people trying to bring down Black Jesus personally? Wow, hypocrite.......what about what Obamessiah's camp has done to McCain...and Palin for that matter? Pretty sure I've seen/listened to several ads from them that are fucking deplorable. The one making fun of McCain for not being able to use a computer was really cool. Your own VP candidate trashed it live on the air. The first thing Black Jesus did when Palin got announced as VP candidate was the deployment of a team of Obamabots to Alaska to dig up dirt on her. Black Jesus has been running a dirty campaign since day one and you're getting pissed about McCain wanting the United States to realize what kind of complete scum Black Jesus has associated with and used as mentors over the course of his life? I'd say shedding light on associations with radicals and domestic terrorists is completely fair game.

WOW. Regardless of whether or not McCain's ads are racist, or Obama's ad about computers was stupid, or who is doing what at which time and why it was deplorable - You need to tone that down. A lot.

There are a lot of ways that you can say "Obama's campaign has been just as negative if not more negative than McCain's" without using that many curse words and calling Obama "Black Jesus" all the way through.

If you want to add something worthwhile to the discussion, by all means, go ahead. But act like a mature adult.

The "Black Jesus" remarks are pretty spot-on with respect to how some Obama supporters feel about their 'great leader.'

For example:

It's great that the next President already has his own version of the Hitler Youth
