Damned racists sonsabitches won't vote for Lord God B Hussein Obama! I think I'ma declare a jihad!
As a racially insensitive White Male Oppressor, I'm several steps past fed up with the racism of Barack Obama, his allies and supporters. Even leaving out the infamous Rev Wright, Obama himself and his campaign organization have directly gone to racial nonsense repeatedly. Why, saying anything about his Fannie friend Franklin Raines is racist. Sarah Palin saying anything about Bill Ayers and Obama is apparently racist as well.…

I just found out that Obama (2008-hybrid) and Heloise both drive the Ford Escape. But I've been knowing that McCain simply drives....everybody crazy.
Or how about this one I just thought of: McCain's personality is so split up that he can drive all 13 of his cars at once! So that he doesn't have to make up his mind which one to drive.
The gods invented laughter, but McCain invented confusion.

Jeezus. Nothing has changed -- except the dim-witted demagogues that you asswipes are drooling over.
It transformed from limply trying to justify Bush/Cheney --- (hey, they left a nice legacy with foreign policy and the economy, eh, folks?!) ...to limply trying to justify McNutt-case and that Corpse Bride from Alaska as they whip up the Nuremberg Crowd and try to simulate a National Socialist get-together in 1933 Berlin. "A free Manlicher-Carcano to every new McCain Voter registered!")
But with all the changes to the planet, it is NICE to see the lunatic fringe still doing a self-negating circle jerk (stroke those only to your right) here on BC after all these years -- and Barger is still playing his redneck, picked-on, "i'm really a minority" -- and "some of my best friends are..."
zzzzzzzzzz
Anyway, the schtick is still the same; he's stolen a few techniques and even a few epithets from the ol' Shark -- figuring I was too busy elsewhere to notice his monumental UNORIGINALITY and his "borrowing" continues.
Look, kids, pull the eye sockets closed on your cute pointy white "hats" and take a long nap for the next 8 years, cuz McPuppet and his little Marketing Doll are going to be in the "where are they now" category in 3 weeks... and a BLACK MAN will be your President.
AHAHAHAHAHA!
And c'mon Al, just admit it: to a frustrated backwoods emo-redneck virgin like yourself -- you only dig Palin cuz you think she's sexy.
[brrrrrrr... a gigantic shudder buzzes thru the spine of any reader with a sexual history that DOESN'T include fantasies about raping school marms on the steps of the Mormon Tabernacle]
Anyway, I won't be around for more than 20 seconds (life, etc. y'know) so I really don't want to 'debate' you right-wing blowhards about ANY of this; I just have to lean on two words -- and then we're done.

Or has he developed a smidgen of self-awareness and realized that to put a shotgun in his mouth and pull the trigger is much more dignified than spending 20 hours a day sitting at a computer debating himself in some back alley off the internet highway -- while his wife has an affair with a dog-catcher from Austin and his kids plot to kill him in his sleep because they caught him having sex with Ron Paul and can't live with the humiliation?

ACORN doesn't even exist.
92 - bliffle
Voter influence (and fraud), of both left and right, revolves around voter turnout, which generally favors dems if it increases, and favors reps if it decreases.
So you would expect that dems would err on the side of getting too many to vote, and reps would err on the side of getting too few.
That's why ACORN happily passes ALL registrations along to the state, and reps try to discourage people from registering and/or voting.
93 - Dan
Yes, we're all happy that Shark has recovered his mental faculty, even if it's only to favor us with his ego-centric delusions, (Barger's stealing my shit!), and anti-climactic scroll abuse schtick.
"So you would expect that dems would err on the side of getting too many to vote"
Except when they're trying to steal an election in Florida, and argue against counting actual military ballots.
"and reps try to discourage people from registering and/or voting."

Republican steady-state: "Black people are angry' and why is that exactly? Sean says it it because of communist leftist groups like ACORN. They made us mad at America! Hmmm, didn't think America needed any help. When you think of it, if that were true then blacks who were descended from slaves would have all turned into "Nat Turners" but that did not happen. He was truly the token N$O)U in his own neighborhood.
He had a few blacks who had his back but in the end was lynched like so many others to follow until FDR and 1937 came along and lynching was outlawed. Only one southern white politician (Texas Maury) voted in favor of the bill.
Few have stood up but many have fallen for the mob mentality that blacks were inferior and 3/5th a person or was it 2/5th? They called King a communist. McCain voted against King holiday. Arizona was the home of the rabid Goldwater crap.
McCain reminds me of Goldwater not Bull Conner.
Anyway just read that Christopher Buckley resigned from his father's business because he endorsed Obama. See, one man stands up others will follow.

97 - Dan
It's hard to have much sympathy for Nat Turner. He along with "a few blacks who had his back" butchered about 60 whites including children and infants in their sleep.
Lynching, an equal opportunity form of frontier justice, was never formally outlawed federally. Certainly not by FDR. Although Eleanor lent her support to a bill sponsored by the NAACP that passed the house but was defeated by Democrats in the Senate.
Lynching simply withered away as official law and order became more established. Congress enacted a section of the 1968 Civil Rights Law that established some federal protections against lynching.
Free states didn't want slaves counted at all for Congressional representation purposes, but wanted them counted for tax purposes. Slave states didn't want them counted as tax liabilities but did want them counted for representation. 3/5ths was the compromise. Free blacks, some who owned slaves, were always counted as 1.
MLK certainly seems to have had a lot of communist affiliations, but the FBI files are sealed. Hiding evidence is usually a clue.

Sadly, he is the exception to the rule.
Poor misguided, but good-intentioned Dave, may he find wisdom some day.

"U.S. Senator John McCain's recent attacks on the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), are puzzling given his historic support for the organization and its efforts on behalf of immigrant Americans. As recently as February 20, 2006, Senator McCain was the keynote speaker at an ACORN-sponsored Immigration Rally in Miami, Florida at Miami Dade College - Wolfson Campus."
102 - Dan(Miller)
Zedd,
Please correct me if I don't understand. I had no idea that ACORN was trying to register Mickey Mouse, dead people and the same people multiple times back in February of 2006. If ACORN was, your cite is right on point. I perhaps had the wrong idea, that ACORN's spam-type attacks on the electoral process were more recent.

McCain speaking at an ACORN sponsored event is typical McCain bi-partisan foolishness, and he certainly deserves some mockery for it - but of course that's not like working for them and advocating for them, and then hiring them and giving them most of a million dollars to do absolute electoral fraud - get Obama in by hook or by crook. There can be little reasonable doubt that this is what's going on with this organization all over the nation.

RE #27
Dan,
The Washington Times is no rag. It's much worse than that. It's founder and owner is "Not a real Reverend" Sun Myung Moon of the Unification
ChurchCult.In 2002, during the 20th anniversary party for the Times, Moon said, "The Washington Times will become the instrument in spreading the truth about God to the world." (Wikepedia see: The Washington Times)
Mark Hyman, the author of your Washington Times article is a VP at Sinclair Broadcasting, which tried to force its 62 stations to interrupt their regularly scheduled programming to air anti-Kerry propaganda in order to influence the 2004 election (1).
He is also the host of Sinclair Broadcasting's right-wing The Point and is known for supporting the books and discredited views of Jerome Corsi. (2)
Corsi is the co-author of the Swift Boat Vets attack book. It is the Washington Times article you cite above that I believe is an attempt by Hyman to support another piece of refuse by Corsi entitled Obama Nation, about which factcheck.org [in Corsi's Dull Hatchet said:
Jerome Corsi's "The Obama Nation" is a mishmash of unsupported conjecture, half-truths, logical fallacies and outright falsehoods.
In addition to attempts to usurp influence over elections, Sinclair Broadcasting was investigated by the FCC for airing undisclosed Video News Releases (VNRs), which are basically infomercials or "Fake News". By failing to disclose that these are paid for ads designed by PR firms, a news station allows these to run as if they are legitimate news stories.
The Bush Admin is famous for making VNRs (3). Sinclair is famous for presenting them as if they are news reports.
Some favorite quotes of Jerome Corsi (4):
* Corsi on Islam: "a worthless, dangerous Satanic religion"
* Corsi on Catholicism: "Boy buggering in both Islam and Catholicism is okay with the Pope as long as it isn't reported by the liberal press"
* Corsi on Muslims: "RAGHEADS are Boy-Bumpers as clearly as they are Women-Haters -- it all goes together"
* Corsi on "John F*ing Commie Kerry": "After he married TerRAHsa, didn't John Kerry begin practicing Judiasm? He also has paternal grandparents that were Jewish. What religion is John Kerry?"
* Corsi on Senator "FAT HOG" Clinton: "Anybody ask why HELLary couldn't keep BJ Bill satisfied? Not lesbo or anything, is she?"

Al, I had a run in with two Obama workers last week in Harvard Square. I watched for 10 minutes as they approached a multitude of folks on the street asking for support for their leader. In that time several people were approached, not one of them were a white male. I intentionally walked by them twice, slowly, deliberately. I wanted to be approached and was not. So, I confronted them making clear my own observations. The bottom line is that Obama workers in Harvard Square intentionally ignored white males. Were they acting on their own, or were they acting at the direction of officials of the Massachusetts State Democratic Committee? I took the time to call the State Committee headquarters and registered my complaint.
My whole point is quite simple. There's a race problem in this country. We don't talk about it, but it festers under the surface waiting for an opportunity to strike. The MSM does a great disservice to us by not confronting this issue head on. Whoopi Goldberg talks about it and approaches it from a pragmatic point of view (pardon the pun) that makes sense. We all need to talk about it and deal with it once and for all if we are to rise above it. My biggest fear is that Barack Obama's ascension to the Oval Throne shall throw race relations back 100 years. If he fails in his Administration at any step of the way, it will be a race issue - not political. If he were to die in office, it will be a race issue. If anyone in Congress tries to challenge him, it will be a race issue. Barack Obama may rise above race but the rest of America may not be ready. We need to talk about that -- NOW!

I suppose there is a big difference between cults and religions. At least so I have been told. Still, I am not overly fond of either.
The ReverendMr. Moon, although a now eighty-eight year old Korean and an anti-communist, is not one of my favorites. Nevertheless, back when I lived in the D.C. area a dozen years ago, The Washington Times was a decent newspaper. Of course, that is my subjective judgment. The Washington Post and the New York Times are, obviously entirely objective, fair and balanced. On the other hand . . . .Dan(Miller)

Dan Miller(#102) attempts obtuseness:
I had no idea that ACORN was trying to register Mickey Mouse, dead people and the same people multiple times back in February of 2006. If ACORN was, your cite is right on point. I perhaps had the wrong idea, that ACORN's spam-type attacks on the electoral process were more recent.
ACORN is required by law to pass forward any attempted registrations presented to it by individual canvassers. The state then applies their verification checks to the registrations.
To aid in ferreting out fraudulent canvassers ACORN maintains a database of submissions, on it's own volition.
If ACORN were to selectively purge Mr. Mouse from the registrations on it's own initiative, THEN it would be subject to prosecution. And rightly so: it is not within ACORNs prerogative to reject anyone. Even if Mr. Mouse looks like a parody of a comic book character.
AFAIK, ACORN simply tries to register voters that may have been overlooked previously. What's wrong with that?
Dan Miller is flirting with joining the crazy rightists who are trying to parlay the anti-ACORN myth into an attack on the upcoming election, which Obama appears to be winning.
It's a dangerous gamble that threatens Dans credibility. Don't do it, Dan, you'll end up in the same box with Dave.

As you lecture Dan(Miller) on the broadcast industry and the FCC, you might want to keep in mind that he spent 30 years as an attorney representing broadcast clients in their dealings with the FCC.
However, I have no idea how successful he was, as later, his life went into a steep decline when he became a liveaboard cruising ragbagger.

Clav,
Dear me. An investigation is evidence of wrongdoing. I didn't know that. Was Sinclair found to have done something wrong? I have no idea, and won't bother to look it up since it is obviously irrelevant.

Everyone should be allowed to step up and question our leaders. It's done not nearly enough for my tastes, but you might want to hold off on the ticker-tape parade for Joe the Plumber (although if he really doesn't have a license, he needs a new nickname) if half the stuff I see flying around this guy sticks.
I can see why he would be concerned about paying more taxes, if really he has two liens against him already, but what his business makes and what his income would be are two different things. Too bad, Obama was caught off guard and didn't know how to respond. Maybe McCain can run a "Who's prepared at 3pm?" ad.
At his blog righty Martin Eisenstadt claims he's the first to point out the Charles Keating connection, which means nothing, but will be look bad because it totally changes the discussion.
118 - Cindy D
A. Clav,
I wasn't lecturing Dan. I was simply making the paragraph understandable to any reader.
B. Dan,
An investigation is evidence of wrongdoing.
No.
Was Sinclair found to have done something wrong?
There is evidence that Sinclair did something wrong. The evidence is in video format and speaks for itself. They did not identify the VNRs. It seems unlikely that they VNRs were tampered with as Comcast has been fined already based on the CMD report. Sinclair and others have yet to be fined as the investigation is ongoing. The wheels of the bureaucracy grind along.
"KOKH-25 in Oklahoma City, OK, a FOX station owned by Sinclair, aired six of the VNRs tracked by CMD, making it this report's top repeat offender. Consistently, KOKH-25 failed to provide any disclosure to news audiences. The station also aired five of the six VNRs in their entirety, and kept the publicist's original narration each time."
Some of the actual VNRs reported to the FCC can be accessed by clicking the numbers 1-6 at each entry.
But, all this is academic since it doesn't matter. And I agree. The other information I included is much more valuable in discrediting the slanderous news piece.
The video's author discredits himself--something apparent when you visit his youtube page.
119 - Cindy D
Dan,
Don't you have any sources more reputable than Media Research Center affiliates? You're hanging with some crowd.
CNSnews and newsbusters are owned by Media Research Center the source for news and heaps of praise by notable personalities as:
Jerry Falwell
Rush Limbaugh
Phyliss Schlafly
Newt Gingrich
Their stated mission is to correct what they see as left-wing media bias. Do they do this by presenting a balanced view? Presenting evidence to debunk what they see as bias? No. They literally print any tripe, I mean anything that has an ultra right-wing slant, as evidenced by their picking through two blogs to find some disgruntled bloggers and printing it as "news."
Come on, it's news to find couple of pissed off democrats?
I also understand CNSnews launched the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth attacks.
Media Research Center honored Swift Boat Veterans for "courage" during the 2004 campaign
Editorials across the country denounced the ads run by Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, and Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) called on President Bush to condemn the ads.
Even John McCain couldn't stomach their bullshit.

You know as well as I that ACORN has no way to know if registrations brought to them by canvassers are valid or not, and even if they did it would be illegal of ACORN to suppress any registrations given to them.

124 - Cindy D
Dave,
You're right! He doesn't have two heads or anything (which sort of shocks me).
I wish I could ask him to point out where on the site MRC shows evidence "with statistics and social science means". I've pretty much combed through there but, I can only stand so much, maybe I missed all the "scientific" type of evidence they present.
I think he's right that you get hired as a journalist based on your world view generally being in line with reporting what is (my words) "acceptable." Where we differ is that I don't think he understands what real left actually is. When I start seeing people like Noam Chomsky regularly quoted in the MSM, then you can tell me that the media even fairly represents the left.
We are all good little capitalists here, the MSM included.
What was that thing he was saying about the economic disaster being a result of the MSM constantly telling people the economy is bad? Like wish fulfillment? And here I thought it was all ACORN's fault!
125 - handyguy
No one said invalid voter registrations are meaningless or innocent, just that they are being exaggerated into a conspiracy story that does not actually hold up if you read the details less selectively and without your ideological blinders on.
The embezzlement story has been widely reported for months and it has little or no direct bearing on the voter registration story. You may recall scandals involving the United Way and the Red Cross. They didn't change the basic good the organizations did and still do.
Acorn does a lot of good work. Read about it, instead of just repeating echo-chamber half-truths and distortions.
Or don't, and just keep spitting out cheap sarcasm. Make you feel better?
