Get ready for it. They're going to go there and attack Obama on Wright
Edited on Fri Sep-19-08 11:15 PM by cali
They're justifying it by saying Obama did it first by attacking McCain on his associations. Fucking liars.

Oh, have I mentioned the rage and hate I have for these fuckwads?

1. Cali, I was at a flea market last weekend and some RW weirdo had his radio on...
It sounded like Sean Hannity going on and on about Wright. They'll grow desperate and start running ads. There is no such thing as too low for these people.

2. No way
Not with the holy rolling nut-job Jumpin' Jews for Jesus Christers that we have on video from Palin's church.

3. Obama no longer belongs to that church. However, palin does still belong
to her church, who condemn anyone who doesn't follow THEIR form of religion, as those ho will burn in hell

4. Then everything is on the table.
and I do mean everything.

I'm talking about what really happened when he was a POW
I'm talking about his many affairs
I'm talking about Cindy's drug habit and his coverup of it
I'm talking about Keating 5
I'm talking about what he did to his first wife

All of these things speak to character.

8. As Olbermann stated...
Edited on Fri Sep-19-08 11:21 PM by backscatter712
Muthee makes Rev. Wright look like Father Flanagan of Boys Town.

Same can be said of Kalnins, Hagee, Parsley and so on...

McCain's and Palin's crazy preachers (note the plural) are more like Father Coughlin...

If they want to go there, LET 'EM!!! We've got ammo!!!

9. Ironically, it's to our great advantage that Wright got SO much press already.
If they run these again, it'll be a big yawn and they'll look even more petty and stupid than they already do.

21. As I've said in the past....
...what are the Republicans going to throw at Obama that Hillary hasn't already? He was baptized in fire during the primaries, and we should seriously thank Hillary for that.

25. Yep, and Muthee has yet to be vetted....hillarious.
Muthee used a spell to assist Palin winning the Governor's seat in the state of Alaska. She gave him credit for this...it is on tape.

29. The bail-out isn't going to solve the economic crisis once and for all.
It'll be an issue till election day, and bringing out Wright isn't going allay people's fears about it.

They still haven't noticed the striking resemblance they bear to Wile E Coyote.

24. Thats not a huge concern of theirs
The Muslim thing has nothing to do with religion. It has to do with "different". And the people who actually care about that are the same ones who will vote against him because he is Multiracial, or because he is intelligent, or because he is a Democrat. Any one of those will do, so losing one allegation makes no difference to them.

They don't really have anything to lose with their base. The only downside for them would be if it agitates our base into an even higher level of effort.

22. So they're reusing the Wright card, huh?
They must be out of ammo. this crap didn't stop Obama from winning the final primaries he needed to. what makes them think it will work this time?
During the height of this, more people were concerned about McCain=Bush than Obama's problems with the Rev.

But now, we have Palin and her whack-job church.

edit: p.s. So here's hoping they DO go there.

34. Obama may have boxed McCain in on this. McCain's campaign has been tagged "sleazy".
So now if he tries to bring Obama down that way, McCain will also be brought down.

And if Obama turns the other cheek and keeps pressing on solutions and issues, McCain will look small, angry and un-Presidential.

38. The only thing I'm worried about is that they might have
a really bad tape of him at one of the offensive sermons. Obama said he was never there when Wright went off about America but it is hard to remember every single sermon you have heard over 20 years.

43. Doesn't Wright have a book and tour in late October?
I imagine a lot of outlets will jump at the chance to have him on the air. Will the good rev. take one for the team and decline to appear or will he be unable to be drawn to the spotlight of FAUX News?
