Work Freeper: "There's no way I'd vote for someone whose name rhymes with Osama."
I kid you not.

And she didn't even know his middle name was Hussein. Her jaw dropped.

BTW, this is not a diss on Obama, just a comment.

30. I'm glad I haven't.
Most people I've talked to like Obama's energy and youth and excitement.

4. Freeper fool
wouldn't vote for him if his name was John Thompson. He doesn't have a (R) after his name. These people are so transparent.

5. Must have been watching Scarborough
That's all they've got. That's about the stupidest reason to not vote for someone that I've ever heard. Yes, we should tell them they're stupid when they say stupid shit.

7. H.L. Mencken describes her very well.....
“As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.” - H.L. Mencken

9. My wife and Obama's mother are both from Kansas
I guess I should get divorced. Conservatives are hateful pigs with no concept of the "Land of the Free."

Failing that, I think silence would do the trick.

17. Obama was asked on Big Ed about the "middle name" issue
Edited on Mon Dec-11-06 04:52 PM by zulchzulu
He said (and I think it was a good answer) that they probably wouldn't vote for him anyway because their politics is probably "conservative" anyway...

This is just a cheap rw attack. If this is all they've got after the mess they've made of this country, Afghanistan, Iraq and the 'War on Terror'(tm) they're in deep shit.

Edited on Mon Dec-11-06 04:58 PM by Efilroft Sul
That's like saying "I'm not voting for Carter because that rhymes with 'farter.'"

27. If you want to make her pointy little head explode, offer to take her out for coffee,
At OSAMA'S COFFEE ZONE!<http://heisel.org/mirrors/maneater/1999/04/27/forum/wolff.html>

It's actually quite a nice coffee joint, I drop by whenever I'm in town. Best coffee in Missouri, and head and shoulders above Staryucks.

Then say:
"Man, and I thought BUSH was the stupidest person on the planet..."

Then walk away.

42. The Right wins hands down
on silly name calling.
Right wing radio loves "Hitlery". (yeah, funny.) And "Bela Lugosi" for Nancy Pelosi.
(are you laughing yet?)
And "Skerry" for..Kerry, of course.
Hmm. Hope the conservatives aren't getting too hopeful about their new rightwing comedy show on Faux.

49. I could never vote for someone whose name rhymes with...
(Abraham) Stinkin'
(Franklin Delano) Borscht Belt
(Dwight) Wisenheimer
(Jimmy) Harder
(Ronald) Fakin'

Or maybe they would prefer...

(Rudolph) Cry-to-mommy
(John) No-brain

Believe me, if I could've figured out something silly that rhymes with Mitt Romney, I'd've mentioned that too.
