Demand Media Balance
October 16, 2008
The media’s coverage of the 2008 Presidential candidates is recklessly skewed. Left unchecked and unchallenged, it could taint the election process!
The Media Research Center just released a 7-month study of morning news shows and found the networks are giving nearly twice as much airtime to Democratic candidates. Even worse, these segments actively promoted the liberal agenda.
In other words, the networks aren’t even trying to hide their bias!
I have just signed a national petition launched by the Media Research Center demanding balance in 2008 election coverage, and am urging you to do the same by clicking here:
http://www.mrcaction.org/506/petition.asp?PID=18442298&NID=1
(Note: You can access the full MRC Report, “Rise and Shine
on Democrats,” by clicking on the above link.)
The MRC is mobilizing 100,000 citizens over the next 30 days, and will present the petitions to the media as soon as our goal has been reached.
Please take a moment to add your name:

We feature the latest news, events and politics effecting the sports of hunting, fishing, and all outdoor activities in North America.
1. From the media I learned Sarah Palin’s husband has a DUI conviction from 22 years ago. * On my own I learned that Ted Kennedy (hero of last week’s tribute at the DNC) was drunk while driving a car off a bridge in Chappaquiddick. That same crash killed a young campaign volunteer with whom he was having an affair. Oh, and that woman was pregnant with his child. * Mr. Palin’s (who is not running for office) DUI came a mere 4 years after Barack Obama (who is running for president) stopped using cocaine and marijuana (by his own admission in his autobiography). Shocking – it’s OK for the presidential candidate to use drugs or the party patriarch to kill someone while driving drunk yet the husband of a VP candidate should be demonized for something done 22 years ago.
2. From the media I learned that Sarah Palin’s daughter is pregnant. * On my own I learned that Joe Biden’s (the other VP candidate) son was paid a large amount of money as a consultant to credit card company MBNA. That same company had business before Senator Joe Biden concerning regulation of consumer credit practices. After the company paid a hefty sum to Mr. Biden’s son, he voted in favor of legislation to help that company. * That same son, Hunter, is also engaged in a legal investigation and suit for defrauding a former business partner Shocking – it’s a crime for the republican VP candidate to have a child who’s pregnant even though it’s irrelevant to how she performs her job. It’s OK, however, for the democrat VP candidate while a senator to vote in favor of a company who paid his son over a quarter of a million dollars.
3. From the media I learned that Sarah Palin should be considered ’selfish’ for agreeing to run for VP knowing about her daughter’s condition. Knowing that her public role would bring extra scrutiny on the family is selfish and she should have declined to protect her child (actually heard this on ABC this weekend). Strange – the same people who said Sarah is selfish for running for VP did not seem to care about any impact on Chelsea when Bill Clinton had > his dalliance with Monica Lewinsky. That was a private, personal matter you see.
4. From the media I have learned to be ‘concerned’ that Sarah Palin probably won’t be able to manage her family and do an effective job of being VP at the same time. Funny – I never heard anything about Hillary’s ability to support Chelsea while re-doing healthcare or any of the other feminist icons who say you can balance work and family. They also never mention that Barack will have to balance time with his children while meeting with heads of rogue nations or how Joe Biden’s kids don’t even have a mom and will be fighting for his time while he hosts white house coffee fundraisers and sells nights in the Lincoln bedroom.
5. From the media I have learned that Sarah Palin is ‘too inexperienced’ to be a heartbeat-away from the presidency. * Apparently taking on corruption in your own party and running a state that’s the same size people-wise as delaware (hint hint: that’s where Joe Biden is from) is not really experience. * However, time spent as a ‘community organizer’ and less than 180 days in the senate where you’ve authored no significant legislation is just the type of ‘change’ we’re looking for from the top of the ticket. Funny – inexperience at the top of the ticket is a mantra for ‘change’ > and ‘hope’ while strong practical everyday experience as the #2 is cause for concern.
6. From the media I learned that Sarah Palin’s husband once got a ticket for fishing without a license. * I haven’t heard much about the fact that if he were still a practicing attorney, the VP candidate Joe Biden would be disbarred for plagiarism not once but multiple times. It’s ok to break the rules if you’re a democrat candidate but not Ok if you are the spouse of a republican candidate.
7. From the media I learned that Sarah Palin doesn’t know much about Iraq ; in fact we wonder if she even knows where it is. * Sarah’s son volunteered into the US military and is now deployed in Iraq . I guess that doesn’t count. Sarah has spent more time with troops in Iraq (as commander of the Alaska National Guard she visited Iraq last year) than Obama has even while running for president. In fact, when Sarah went to Iraq she spent time with the troops. When Obama went there, he skipped a base visit to instead go work out at the Ritz Carlton.
8. From the media I learned that Sarah Palin is a ‘lightweight’ and she better be a ‘quick study’ to keep up with this team. Funny, nobody is talking about how, after Barack Obama had ‘visited 57 states’ according to him he only had ‘5 more to go’ or endless other stupid gaffes that expose who he really is.
9. From the media I have learned that (gasp!), Sarah Palin’s husband was once a registered member of a 3rd party that favored states’ rights (man, this is really bad stuff). * That same media has been silent to the story that when Barack Obama announced his first senate run, he did so in the home of William Ayers. Mr. Ayers is an un-repentant terrorist convicted for bombing the pentagon. This same Mr. Ayers said on 9/11 that he and his group did not do enough to harm our military and he wished he had done more. During the same time as that comment, he was serving on a board with Barack Obama. All notes and information about their serving together is now locked up by the corrupt Chicago machine and reporter access to those records are being blocked by the Obama campaign. If we’ve had any doubts about the bias of the media, it’s pretty clear now where they stand. Pass this on to some of your friends who are on the fence and who get all their information from Katie Couric, Wolf Blitzer, Tom Brokaw and the gang. This is egregious and corrupt. The only way to stop it is to spread information using other outlets and make these guys irrelevant.’
And from sources more credible than the media, I have learned that Sarah Palin doesn’t give a rat’s as- about protecting our environment. She is a small thinking idiot.
**********************************************************
Governor Palin would also like to bring open-cast coal mining to Alaska’s Brooks Range Mountains, an act of environmental vandalism in the eyes of many.
The Palin administration has allowed Chevron to triple the amount of toxic waste it pours into the waters of Cook Inlet. This, even though the number of beluga whales in the bay has collapsed from 1,300 to 350 – the point of extinction – because of pollution and increased ship traffic.
I didn’t think there were any sources more credible than the
media.
George, that’s sweet music. I’ve passed it on all over the
place, thanks. They are relentless in thier fright, er, I
mean fight.
I don’t think certain people are mentally capable of voting for someone OUTSIDE of the Republican party.
They put party first, everything else comes after that.
Such a shame and that’s why we’re in the mess we’re in. We need viable 3rd parties.

Now, if you substituted Democratic, for Republican in your statement….wouldn’t that be a picture of you?
And if you took a good look at the state of Alaska, you’d see how little of it was being used for natural resources….(some people like to find fault with Palin no matter what she does….would that be you, again?)
We lost control of these “two” parties several years ago, a third nightmare will not solve the problem and only help the one party pretending to be “two” fleece us more, if that is possible because I look around at what they have left us with and wonder what they will steal next. A dimes worth of difference at best. Lets not forget it was the Republican George H.W. Bush signed the treatise in Rio which has brought us this GREEN insanity AGENDA we are all against, Billy “Bob” Clintonista furthered it along and George W. Bush has done nothing to stop it. Smells of team work to me. He sports that white cowboy hat and has a ranch in Texas, and thats about the end of his support of RURAL AMERICANS suffering under the plight of wolves and land grabbing wolf/tree hugging anti-hunter enviro freaks. I’ve lived a lifetime in the woods and fixed more problems, helped more animals, picked up more trash, than 1000 Bea’s from the city ever done, all they do is show up out here with their camera, take a few photo’s, glare at us, and shit beside some trail they hiked in daylight hours only, and ran back to their city and talk like they know better than us what forests and animals need. These people were raised in a ruined environment, concrete jungle, and they climb on board the first bullshit artist politicians crap sounds pretty to them and beat their stupid little drum, all the while the real care takers of this Nations lands get the shaft by them and their political hack they fell over for. They let it burn, they let predators run un-checked, they claim to many hooved ungulates exist and habitat is better due to eco system saving wolves…they buy into U/N charters managing our forests better than we can do it…They suck up Al Gores phoney baloney global man caused warming bunk, bigger government bigger government, 1.5 trillion in new taxes to fight natural climate change…Lets worship mother earth and the Egyptian Hyksos wolf dog for our new pagan idol…these idiots need to get real.
John McCain’s campaign is expressing outrage over a New York Times story that focuses on Cindy McCain’s marriage to the Arizona senator, including her miscarriages, her past addiction to painkillers and her failure in Washington to fit in.
“It is worth noting that you have not employed your investigative assets looking into Michelle Obama,” Dowd wrote in the letter, which the campaign has made public now in response to the latest report by the Times.
“You have not tried to find Barack Obama’s drug dealer that he wrote about in his book, ‘Dreams of My Father,’” he continued. “Nor have you interviewed his poor relatives in Kenya and determined why Barack Obama has not rescued them. Thus there is a terrific lack of balance here.”
“The New York Times has stooped lower than this campaign ever imagined possible in an attempt to discredit a woman whose only apparent sin is being married to the man that would oppose that paper’s preferred candidate, Barack Obama, in his quest for the presidency,” McCain campaign spokesman Michael Goldfarb wrote in the statement released Saturday.
“It is a black mark on the record of a paper that was once widely respected, but is now little more than a propaganda organ for the Democratic party,” he added. “The New York Times has accused John McCain of running a dishonorable campaign, but today it is plain to see where the real dishonor lies.”
But most of us already knew this about the Times right?
Bea Says:
“Governor Palin would also like to bring open-cast coal mining to Alaska’s Brooks Range Mountains, an act of environmental vandalism in the eyes of many.”
If you check the time line Coal mining in Alaska has been around since the 1800’s. Hardly a new thing to the Brooks Range

It’s now with great horror the tree huggers and the animals before people dredge up this tidbit and hang it on Sarah Palin. When the EPA has permitted this activity for years. She has done nothing Illegal. Get your Democratic Congress to spank the EPA. Your grabbing at straws.
Cook Inlet is the only coastal waterbody in the United States where EPA allows the oil and gas industry to dump toxic drilling and production wastes into important subsistence, commercial and recreational fisheries.
When Congress passed the Clean Water Act in 1972, it established five year terms for discharge permits, with the intent that technology would improve over time and pollution eventually would be eliminated.
Alaska Applied to the EPA for a permit and was granted one!
sorry about your Caviar.
Just because something isn’t ILLEGAL, George doesn’t mean it’s right!
If that were true, and you were true to your own philosophy, then abortion under any circumstances would be fine because it is LEGAL.
**********************************************************
Looks like another high profile American hero has endorsed Obama too:
Retired General Colin L. Powell, one of the country’s most respected Republicans, stunned both parties on Sunday by strongly endorsing Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) for president on NBC’s “Meet the Press” and laying out a blistering, detailed critique of the modern GOP.
Powell said the election of Obama would “electrify the world.”
“I think he is a transformational figure,” Powell said. “He is a new generation coming … onto the world stage and on the American stage. And for that reason, I’ll be voting for Senator Barack Obama.”
As a key reason, Powell said: “I would have difficulty with two more conservative appointments to the Supreme Court, but that’s what we’d be looking at in a McCain administration.”
Powell, once considered likely to be the nation’s first African-American presidential nominee, said his decision was not about race.
Moderator Tom Brokaw said: “There will be some … who will say this is an African-American, distinguished American supporting another African-American because of race.”
Powell, who last year gave Republican John McCain’s campaign the maximum $2,300, replied: “If I had only had that in mind, I could have done this six, eight, 10 months ago. I really have been going back and forth between somebody I have the highest respect and regard for, John McCain and somebody I was getting to know, Barack Obama. And it was only in the last couple of months that I settled on this.”
“I can’t deny that it will be a historic event when an African-American becomes president,” Powell continued, speaking live in the studio. “And should that happen, all Americans should be proud — not just African-American, but all Americans — that we have reached this point in our national history where such a thing could happen. It would also not only electrify the country, but electrify the world.”
Obama communications director Robert Gibbs said the two men spoke for 10 minutes at 10 a.m., and that the candidate thanked Powell for his endorsement and said “he looked forward to taking advantage of his advice in the next two weeks and hopefully over the next four years.”
Obama spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the campaign had not been told of the endorsement: “We didn’t know until General Powell spoke on ‘Meet The Press’ .”
Powell, making his 30th appearance on “Meet the Press,” said he does not plan to campaign for Obama. He led into his endorsement by saying: “We’ve got two individuals — either one of them could be a good president. But which is the president that we need now — which is the individual that serves the needs of the nation for the next period of time.
“And I come to the conclusion that because of his ability to inspire, because of the inclusive nature of his campaign, because he is reaching out all across America, because of who he is and his rhetorical abilities — and you have to take that into account — as well as his substance — he has both style and substance, he has met the standard of being a successful president, being an exceptional president.”
Powell said that he is “troubled” by the direction of the Republican Party, and said he began to doubt McCain when he chose Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate.
“Not just small towns have values,” he said, responding to one of Palin’s signature lines.
“She’s a very distinguished woman, and she’s to be admired,” he said. “But at the same, now that we have had a chance to watch her for some seven weeks, I don’t believe she’s ready to be president of the United States, which is the job of the vice president. And so that raised some question in my mind as to the judgment that Senator McCain made.”
The endorsement is likely to help the Illinois senator convince skeptical centrists that he is ready to handle the challenges of commander in chief, and undercuts McCain argument that he is better qualified on national-security issues.
The Arizona senator, appearing on “Fox News Sunday,” sought to minimize the endorsement by noting his support from other former secretaries of state and retired military flag officers.
“This doesn’t come as a surprise,” McCain said. “But I’m also very pleased to have the endorsement of four former secretaries of state … and I’m proud to have the endorsement of well over 200 retired generals and admirals. I respect and continue to respect and admire Secretary Powell.”
While McCain only reiterated his respect for Powell when asked about the move, others in the GOP were more candid.
One prominent conservative who knows both McCain and Powell said that for all the secretary of state’s criticism of McCain and his praise of Obama, the move had less to do with the two candidates for president than the current occupant of the Oval Office.
“Powell cares a lot about his reputation with Washington elites and he thinks he was badly damaged by his relationship with the Bush administration,” said this Republican. “So this is a way to make up for what he regarded as not being treated well by the Bush administration, not being given the due deferenece he thinks he deserves.”
And that Powell would make his decision known in the closing weeks of the election, as it becomes increasingly clear that Obama is the favorite, reflects a calculated political move, says this source.
“Let’s be honest – do we think Powell would be doing this if Obama had been trailing six or seven points in the polls?” the source asked, deeming Powell’s endorsement “a Profile in Conventional Wisdom.”
A friend of the former secretary of state sharply dismissed the idea that Powell’s move had anything to do with making up for his service in the Bush years.
“Anybody who is making the argument about ‘rehabiliation’ was not listening to what he had say today,” said the friend, suggesting Powell clear that he was unhappy with the state of the party. “It’s absolute horseshit.”
Rush Limbaugh suggested Powell’s move was very much related to Obama’s status as the first African-American with a chance to become president.
“Secretary Powell says his endorsement is not about race,” Limbaugh wrote in an email. “OK, fine. I am now researching his past endorsements to see if I can find all the inexperienced, very liberal, white candidates he has endorsed. I’ll let you know what I come up with.
“I was also unaware of his dislike for John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Anthony Kennedy and Antonin Scalia. I guess he also regrets Reagan and Bush making HIM a 4-star and Secretary of State AND appointing his son to head the FCC. Yes, let’s hear it for transformational figures.”
But others in the party were less dismissive, acknowledging the heft of the respected retired four-star general and the popularity he enjoys across the country.
“The Powell endorsement is a big deal,” said Scott Reed, Bob Dole’s campaign manager in 1996 and a close friend of McCain campaign manager Rick Davis. “It has been bantered about since August, and shows both Powell and Obama know how to make an impact in the closing days of a tight campaign.”
“What that just did in one sound bite — and I assume that sound bite will end up in an ad — is it eliminated the experience factor,” said former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a Republican, in an appearance on ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos. “How are you going to say the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the former National Security Adviser, former Secretary of State was taken in?”
Powell, 71, also used his Meet the Press appearance to criticize McCain and his campaign for invoking the former domestic terrorist William Ayers.
“Sen. McCain says he a washed-up old terrorist—then why does he keep talking about him?” Powell asked.
“They’re trying to connect [Obama] to some kind of terrorist feelings, and I think that’s inappropriate,” Powell said. “Now I understand what politics is all about — I know how you can go after one another. And that’s good. But I think this goes too far. And I think it has made the McCain campaign look a little narrow. It’s not what the American people are looking for. And I look at these kinds of approaches to the campaign, and they trouble me. And the party has moved even further to the right, and Governor Palin has indicated a further rightward shift.”
Powell said he has “heard senior members of my own party drop the suggestion [that Obama's] a Muslim and might be associated with terrorists.”
“This is not the way we should be doing it in America. I feel strongly about this particular point,” Powell said. “We have got to stop polarizing ourselves in this way. And John McCain is as non-discriminatory as anyone I know. But I’m troubled about the fact that within the party, we have these kinds of expressions.”
Powell, a four-star Army general, was national security adviser to President Ronald Reagan; chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the 1991 Persian Gulf war, when George H.W. Bush was president; and was President George W. Bush’s first secretary of State.
Powell has consulted with both Obama and McCain, and the general’s camp had indicated in the past that he would not endorse.
Powell said that as he watched McCain, the Republican “was a little unsure as to how to deal with the economic problems that we were having, and almost every day, there was a different approach to the problem, and that concerned me, sensing that he didn’t have a complete grasp of the economic problems that we had.”
Powell said a big job of the new president will be “conveying a new image of American leadership, a new image of America’s role in the world.â€
“I think what the president has to do is to start using the power of the Oval Office and the power of his personality to convince the American people and to convince the world that America is solid, America is going to move forward … restoring a sense of purpose,†he said.
“This Powell endorsement is the nail in the coffin,” said one Republican official, speaking anonymously to offer candid thoughts about the party’s nominee. “Not just because of him, but the indictment he laid out of the McCain campaign.”
George,
“These people were raised in a ruined environment?”
Who do you think you are speaking for other people and BIGOTLY judging what “kind” of environment they were brought up in?
Again, that reminds me much of the obviously very bigoted Sarah Palin, who thinks that only “good Americans” come from the backwoods and she has made statements very clearly to that affect.

Might be a bigger hand is at work here:
George, I read it — not sure what they’re saying.
********************
Greg, so you think anyone who wasn’t raised in the backwoods is a “lesser American?” That only “good Americans” can come from “certain” places?
“Good Americans” come from everywhere — they live everywhere — in cities, in small towns, in big towns, in big cities.
Why don’t you just come clean with your obvious bigotry and ignorance?
Greg,
Your biggest problem is that you sterotype people. You see all people in terms of black and white, good and bad people.
God loves everyone, and he’s not a Dem or Republican.
Lock-up is 10pm, daily. The weekends are more lax as some
patients are free to come and go until Sunday night when
everyone must be returned for attendance.
As identification is not required for week-enders venturing
out, the local residents treat the patients with respect and make sure they will remain safe, knowing the return to bus-
iness as usual on Monday will have the patients back inside for the remainder of the week.
Bea safe out there!
Bea, you have sterotyped yourself, you claim to support neither party yet you stick up for Kenyan born communist closet homosexaul Obama, meanwhile you attack party opposites who support John Boy Crashed his plane five times McCain. You attack the beliefs, individualities, lifestyles of the RURAL American populance who believe in hunting to harvest a food source and provide for their familys, who actually live with wolves and see the decimation caused by those creatures first hand, and when attempting to get you types to take notice of the facts instead of the lies concerning the wolf program and its failings you shout out liars to us. You whine about politicians Palin and McCain who are obviously a couple liars attempting to boondoggle more Americans, Palins husband being a CEO for BP, and is a high level shriner free mason, McCain is a Catholic pretending to be a Southern Baptist, and also is a high level shriner free mason. Obama is of Muslim upbringing, and is a Muslim, pretending to be a Christian, which in Greek means CRETIN. Obama also is a Mason.Obama will CHANGE America into something worse than it is now, Obama will kill hunting and MY RIGHT TO OWN A GUN. OBAMA is every reason to vote for the lessor EVIL called McCain. Colin Powell also is a high level Shriner Free Mason of the 33rd degree and just another team player suckering Americans. I pray these people ask Gods forgiveness for the deceptions they partake in, stop lying to the American people and tell the truth. I pray that you stop spreading the lies of the foundations created by Rockefeller think tanks concerning The green movement, agenda 21 of the United Nations Charter, and the fake “Animal Rights” bullshit movement and wake up from your slumber to the reality of the Illusions in which you believe in. Man has been here 6000 years and so have the Animals, this movement is a scam to steal property rights, individual rights, natural rights, sovereign rights from God himself, and your helping it along. I pray you stop. As for loving mankind thats Gods job, I’ll keep pointing out criminals deceptions leading to more power for them. In the mean time when you go hiking dig a hole and bury your poop please, thank you.
Hey guys, Americans are on to us, I’ve got an idea, lets toss them a Rookie politician who will promise no more of the same good ole boy rhetoric and this change is for you people to believe in. But won’t they notice the money behind the Rookie politician is coming from our same old network of good ole boy rhetoric, No don’t worry about that fella’s, only a few of them will catch on to us, the rest will run screaming after the Rookie politician fighting amongst themselves and we will pull the monkey over their eyes again becasue they don’t look nuthin up in the right places until its to late. Americans can fooled over and over again, toss them some cheese, a little whine and we still get to keep the bank. SAME TEAM SAME BUNK SAME BUNCH OF FOOLS HOPING A PRINCE FIXES EVERY THING WRONG WITH THEIR NATION. Another trip to the fools cage again, here we go. OVER BUILT AMORAL MARXIST ANARCHIST = OBAMA.
Greg, you are nothing but a looney bin, full of HATRED for anyone who sees things differently than you. You want LOCK STEP.
I have several friends who are “homosexuals” and let me tell you — they are a heck of a lot NICER than you. And God loves them too!
You are A FIRST CLASS BIGOT.
Greg, you need to read your Bible more.
You said: “As for loving mankind thats Gods job”
Wrong again– “Love your neighbor as thyself.”
Ever heard that quote?
You’re so often just plain wrong.
“worse than it is?” (meaning America?) Despite any problems, I love the USA, Greg.
Bigot=Persons stubbornly attached to concepts not to date actually accepted by yourself.(BEA). It is not bigotry to be certain you are right, but to believe you can’t be wrong (BEA). A user of Cultural Marxism that draws upon it to hide her cowardice. (BEA).
Obama’s so-called proposals will simply drive the stake through the heart of the middle class. (ME). His so-called economic plan, redistribution of wealth (MINE) is raw communism. Obama’s deliberately stays away from any mention of abolishing the IRS or the FEDERAL RESERVE BANKING SYSTEM, which is at the ROOT of this financial chaos. To many dumb people, I can’t even call them American’s are voting for this MUSLIM out of desperation.
Get your pop-corn ready…Obama is going down. Bea, your the BIGOT and the TROLL shitting in these pages. I love people, I hate what some people do which is un-biblical, like SODOMY, stealing, telling big fat ole lies, using fiat currency to destroy Nations, Idolizing false Prophets and Princes offering false promises to a dying Nation. SODOMY, oh I got that one already.
Over Billed Amoral Marxist Anarchist = Obama…..
LMAO……..
Dream on Greg.
Obama will win by a wide margin and the Republicans will be left scratching “What did we do wrong?”
I’ll tell them right now– they’re small minded, narrow minded bigots who hate anyone who isn’t:
1. White
2. Christian
3. Heterosexual
McCain says: “The intellectuals have left the Republican tent. The ill-informed bigots may now enter.”
Please go ahead and call me a troll if you wish — it’s because you can’t argue intelligently using logic and reason.

You haven’t given ONE good reason why Obama should not be president.
Answer this Greg if you dare:
1. Even if he WERE (a closet)Muslim, why would that be a reason not to vote for him? (he isn’t)
Obama was born in Hawaii, not Kenya. If he was born in Kenya, he couldn’t be president.
Our founding fathers never said one had to be “Christian” to be qualified to be President of the U.S.
And while we’re shaking things up, actually, I think it would be great to have a homosexual as president after we vote in Obama. It’s time to really start shaking things up. I’d vote for them just for that reason.
(Is the NRA against homosexuality too Greg? How about the Safari Club?) Are they hateful of black people too, as you are Greg?
It dosen’t matter which puppet gets the electoral selection to me at all, both are thugs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jgJuxD87FU
Both are financed by the same machine, the elite machine which has hi-jacked this once popular government.
The Hawaii birth certificate is a proven fraud !! There is a FEDERAL LAWSUIT over Obama’s place of birth and his legal eligibility to be President on going as we type and has been for some months now.
The Liberal Media is not touching the truth about this guy, his associations with Bill BOMBER Ayers, Chicago Mobster Reszko, RADICAL RACIST Jeremiah Wright. Obama is just a thug out of Chicago in an expensive suit, living in a $1.3 million dollar house, with questionable financial support for said house. People like you who believe what Obama is selling have no understanding of constitutional government or economics. PERIOD.
I don’t belong to the register as a gun owner here NRA.
What the founders said is mute at this point since Dirty Harry Truman suspended the constitution via the war powers act and his executive order to do so. Nixon did it, (and cancelled out our gold standard making these “notes” into BILLS OF CREDIT.) Reagan did it, Clinton did it, Bush did it. The patriot act did it. get a clue.
Notes being backed by gold, BILLS as in dollar bills being backed by nothing, thus are credit. I never heard your prince say how he would fix all that !!!
I got nothing against skin color, thats your filth to toss out, I see you didn’t hesitate to jump on the racist card when at a loss for factual documentation concerning this Nation.
Why I would not vote for a Muslim; #1. The muslim faith is a creation of the society of jesus and the jesuit order some 1600 hundred years ago with the purpose of eventually using this faith to invade Africa and kill the protestant christians there, which was done, historical FACT.
2. Like catholicism muslimism is a despotic faith in which all heretics or the Infidel must be killed, the non-believers of said faiths. both religions are almost identical. FACT.
3. In the last 300 years the society created the more brutal form of muslim faith called Wahabism which is the creation of the terrorist cells world wide. FACT.
4. We already had homosexaul presidents in history. You figure out who.
5. The constitution and bill of rights is a protestant creation, treating humans with dignity, sovereign de-jure status as their own kings with property and Individuality, freedom of expression. This document eventually gave women the right to vote, speak out, have a say and participate in the constitutional process. DO YOU SEE WOMEN IN MUSLIM NATIONS WITH YOUR FREEDOMS ? NOPE.
The Popers and the Islamists hate the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Read the Koran ! I have. Read the Congressional Globes concerning the Treatise of Verona, and the Monroe Doctrine. Read the archives of the Council of Trent.
Those Popers spell it out in those documents BEA and even you can not deny it once you read read read those documents.
So no, I do not want Muslim Obama nor Catholic McCain for president. John like Muslim Obama is lying about his true faith claiming to be a Southern Baptist, HARDLY, the man is a JESUIT.
Obama is a liar, he was born in Kenya, he schooled for over ten years at a muslim school in Indonesia. His family roots make no sense and are likely fraudelant schemes. Making friends with muslim Nations all though is a good idea will not further the Papacy’s wish for the rebuilding of Solomons Temple at Mount Moriah in Jerusalem, thus if Obama does succeed in winning the OVARION office facing the PHALLIC washington monument he will get whacked eventually giving the Popers their man as president, Roman Catholic Joe Biden. Thus the Inquistion against the Middle East will continue.
There are several things going on here which you can not see because you do not do the research that provides you a clear view of the landscape. Political landscape.
Homosexaul deviants matter not to me. God will save them, I do not need to like their habits nor associate with them as you claim you do. No matter I beleive John 4:42 which tells us ” Christ is the Saviour of the World”. John did not say of only some in the world. If Christ is the Savior of the world HE then must save that world for if HE only saves some, and not all, HE has failed as Savior of the world. HE would have given his life in vain and this is not the case. Christs blood paid for all humanity, this means HE owns all mankind and as HIS illustration of going after the one lost sheep Christ will not be satisfied until HE has saved all that he has bought and paid for, they are his and not Satan’s.
These two candidates are not the answer for America.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojgJuxD87FU Obama is a muslim. Obama is a muslim, Obama is a muslim, Obama is a muslim. He schooled in a muslim school in Indonesia, Indonesia, Indonesia, after being born in KENYA IN KENYA IN KENYA. Over Blown Amoral Marxist Anarchist. And Fraud.
Greg, you need to lighten up.
A man enters a bar and orders a drink. The bar has a robot bartender.
The robot serves him a perfectly prepared cocktail, and then asks him, “What’s your IQ?â€
The man replies “150″ and the robot proceeds to make conversation about global warming factors, quantum physics and spirituallity, biomimicry, environmental interconnectedness, string theory, nano-technology, and sexual proclivities.
The customer is very impressed and thinks, “This is really cool.†He decides to test the robot. He walks out of the bar, turns around, and comes back in for another drink. Again, the robot serves him the perfectly prepared drink and asks him, “What’s your IQ?â€
The man responds, “about a 100.â€
Immediately the robot starts talking, but this time, about football, NASCAR, baseball, supermodels, favorite fast foods, guns, and women’s breasts.
Really impressed, the man leaves the bar and decides to give the robot one more test. He heads out and returns, the robot serves him and asks, “What’s your IQ?â€
The man replies, “Er, 50, I think.â€
And the robot says… real slowly,
“So…………… ya gonna vote for Bush again?â€
Here’s some “quizzes” to see where you fall on the political spectrum (for humor purposes only)
http://politicalhumor.about.com/library/blrepublicanquiz.htm
Greg, It sounds like you want a theocracy. Is that an accurate statement?
That would be more in tune with Islamics then.
So is Mitt Romney one of those evil Christians too then? (Mormonism)
BIGOT: were using this word like a new toy at Christmas. The definition holds true then everyone in here is one, cause we are are intolerant of each others views. Can’t we just agree to disagree? I’d much rather be referred to as a misfit or malcontent. Fits more with my redneck, stupid, backwoods, gun tottin, Bible thumpin “profile”
I was gonna say, George, that God himself must be a Bigot, if you think He’s got a mindset against sin…These days, all you have to do is call someone a racist or a bigot, to “condemn” them….when the fact is, everyone is both, at least to some extent, especially if and when someone else “sees” it that way!
I would rather be both than see myself as tolerating, condoning, or “understanding” all the sins that we know within ourselves are wrong!
“But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.”
And Greg, you are right that most of the problems we have today are because “the people” wanted kings instead of God as their ruler and guide….So God appointed them for the people…and we’ve had our problems with ‘em ever since, whether you call them kings or presidents….guess it gives people something to blame besides themselves…(they’d have a hard time swallowing their own criticism..!)
And Bea, it strikes me funny that you found Greg Farber in the dictionary definition of “bigot”…hahaha. Think you have been doctoring some…also notice if you will, your own origin of the word, written in your transcript, “[Origin: 1590–1600; < MF (OF: derogatory name applied by the French to the Normans), perh. < OE bÄ« God by God]”
Maybe, by God, we have a reason to think this way!
Maybe, by your definition, God is a bigot…after all, have you read what the “Good Book” says about what is sin, and what is not? Or don’t you even consider the “Good Book”? Or “bother” to read it? I’m sure you’re not alone in that aspect…if that makes you feel any better…after all, all the deceptive powers in the world want you to never read it or understand it, do you think you can overcome them?
Cardinal Bea, has got nuthin to bring to the table, notice no response to factual evidence concerning the party she defends yet says she will not vote for, as in these pages she claimed she would not vote for either party. LIAR.
Bigot.
B. B.A.T.F. The worst agency of American government, the second worst being a toss up between the about ten other agencies.
I. Illegal Aliens; Another failed government program, or is it ?
G. Ghetto. This is what the Liberal Dumbocrats want to turn America into faster than the Republowpukes do. Killing off gun ownership, hunting, and the middle class.
O. Old lies made to look better than new lies we are used to hearing by twisting words and looking pretty, you know, beating around the Bush yet never really saying NOTHING. See the Mandarin Barrack Obama.
T. Taxman; ” The only difference between the taxman and taxidermist is that the taxidermist leaves the skin. (See Obama’s tax plan up close). Mark Twain.
Obama if selected. which I need to see to believe due to past elections in history where the stronger bloodlines candidate related to European royal blood has been given the position of president of the USA, by some unknown miracle consistantly from day one of this offices opening, That leading bloodlines candidate being McCain, Not Barrack. Either McCain gets the nod, or we have an elitist change up in the works. So if selected Obama will certainly LIGHTEN ME UP BEA, no doubt he will legally rob me of wealth, bullion, properties, and of course several more natural rights, like my gun collection no doubt, where-upon I shall die with my boots on as Ive flat out had enough of this bullshit Roman 14th amendment nazi u.s. corporate communist shit empire.
After these thugs take the guns/books and outlaw Bibles other than the NEW WORLD ORDER APPROVED Roman Catholic Dogma horse puckey self defense of my right to worship and protest myself how I see fit will be my tickket off this ROCK.
Bea will be hiding under the bed by then.
P.s. Folks, I recently purchased a book collection from a Canadian man, due to the passing of Canada’s hate crimes BS, he was fearful those books would get him in jail, WELL GUESS WHAT THE AMERICAN CONGRESS DID FOLKS, PASSED H.R. 1955- S.1959 HATE CRIMES BILL, I suggest you read it. My book collections and Bible collections no doubt will get me executed on the spot. No doubt the Luciferianists will find me NON-RE-PROGRAMMABLE. So be it.
It is more than obvious where this once proud nation is headed and those princes serve others not us or our Lord above. I shall drop to my knees for no MAN ever.
Greg, just read HR 1955 and although it was not as complex as I though it would be…(I’d hate to read the bill it amended, the Homeland Security bill…or the Patriot Act) it seems that we are sure as hell getting step by step closer to Big Brother is watching YOU! see: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/billtext.xpd?bill=h110-1955
The more and more laws we have….the more and more freedoms we lose! At what point do we see our government collapsing on itself, and we will all suffer immeasurably on that day…
I for one am glad that I don’t have to keep up with it…in this case, the more I know, the more I am disgusted and confused with how we cam make so many laws and still expect to live free! There will be a stage when we will wonder just what we are protecting….the concept or the reality? I wonder what God has in mind for us, letting us get to this stage of “evolution” and then finding out how immoral we are becoming by forgetting His authority and guidance?
I, too, worship or bow to no man….save the only man who gave His life for us. To Him, I give all that I am! And to bow is a privilege!
A womanizer walks into a bar and orders a drink, see’s Bea, and orders the bottle.
Bye the way, Greg, the bill HG 1955 hasn’t cleared the senate, yet, although, I expect it will, so you can still write your senator…It didn’t look that bad as it was….but in relation to the Homeland Security and the Patriot Act…there could easily be abuses of power there…and may well be yet! They certainly give opportunity for it!
It’s been laying there almost a year now, they will slip it by soon, with additions no doubt. Certainly room for abuse in it, to much room. I wonder why the media hides the N.A.U. from the people, it’s supossed to be wonderful, so why hide it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KBjVAAFziM Proofs and facts! Province of Manitoba Throne speech Nov. 20, 2007. More banks fall soon, the currency will go down mid 09, then its the N.A.U. Dissolving of our Constitution and Bill of Rights.
THEOCRACY=LMAO, Bea your ignorance knows no bounds.
The distinction between a Republic and a democracy is not an idle one and has great legal significance.
The Constitution guarantees to every state a Republican form of government (Art. 4, section 4). No state may join the United States unless it is a Republic. OUR Republic is one dedicated to “Liberty and Justice for all.” “Minority individual rights are the priority. The people have Natural Rights instead of civil rights. The people are protected by the Bill Of Rights from the majority. One vote in a jury can stop all the majority from depriving any one of the people of his/her rights; this would not be so if the United States were a democracy. Try to understand Peoples rights vs, citizens Rights, huge difference, one is a free sovereign, the other is a SUBJECT SLAVE PERIOD. Contracts have been used to steal the de-jure sovereign God given Rights away from people and in return the state granted “Civil Rights” in there place, Priviledges. NO THANKS.
In a pure democracy 51 beats 49. In a democracy there is no such thing as a significant minority, there are no minority rights except civil slave priviledges granted by a condescending majority. This certainly was never the Founders intentions PERIOD. Only five of the U.S. Constitution’s first ten Amendments apply to Citizens of the United States. Simply Stated, a democracy is a dictatorship of the majority.
Socrates was executed by a democracy; though he harmed no one, the majority found him intolerable.
Barrack Who is Insane Obama will steal the Rights to own Guns and destroy what is hanging by a thread now, the Constitution, and the Bill Of Rights. He can’t wait to do it. The “Majority” which dosen’t exist yet in this country would stand by and watch us (ME) jailed, killed, just to have their anti-guns and anti-hunting way.
My crimes, I eat meat, I want better wolf management NOW. I hunt my meat. I own guns, and read the Bible daily. I disagree with you because you can not support nothing you believe in with documented facts. You support a candidate based on emotions, you do not even know this guy, OBAMA, He is just a pretty picture of lies and you sucked it up hook line and Stinker.
Over Blown Amoral Marxist Anarchist= Barrack Whoaintsane Obama.
Greg, you’re referenced youtube site is inoperable..
I saw it, here it is, I capitalized the k the first time.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kBjVAAFziM Canadian and American/u.s. corporation in reality approving the N.A.U. which will of course be the end of our Constitution and bill of rights and National Sovereignty as well. These crooks are doing it.
‘Joe the Plumber’ strikes back at media
“Joe the Plumber” is lashing out at the media for analyzing his personal life since he suddenly became a focal point of the presidential race last week.
He is upset by the attention and has been unable to work with reporters crowded on his front lawn. The media’s worried about whether I’ve paid my taxes, they’re worried about any number of silly things that have nothing to do with America,”
Wurzelbacher said he felt terrible after reading some of the criticism of himself posted online. “You know, I am a plumber,” Wurzelbacher said. “Just a plumber.” “You know, when you can’t ask a question of your leaders anymore, that gets scary,” he said.
Life Lesson #1 for the “Change” We All Need:
DO NOT APPEAR TO BE CRITICAL OF YOUR LEADERS!
