November 19, 2007 Jane Svoboda from Tama, Iowa Grundy Center, Iowa
This is Obama in his younger days...before the adoring masses...when he had a spine...when questions weren't screened and scripted. Before he acquired his obamessiahood of the traveling feinters and mancrush MSM. This is who Obama is inside. This is why he doesn't do townhalls. Terrorism? Immigration? Did you hear an answer? But he "studied deeply".
OBAMA: THIS IS A PART OF THE WORLD THAT I STUDIED DEEPLY! DON'T THINK THAT I CARE ANY LESS THAN RUDY GIULIANI OR MITT ROMNEY ABOUT MY DAUGHTERS BEING BLOWN UP!
At least he didn't call her "Sweetie". It certainly belies the "cool exterior". Forced not authentic. That's that's the difference between him and Gov Palin.I imagine this might have gotten Ms Svoboda's claws out about the potential commander in chief.
Obama gets heckled by "Blacks against Obama". The predominantly white audience gets up and cheer to drown them out. Lotta racism going on. No way whites will vote for a black man. And Obama has the entire black vote. All madness. It reminded me of Sen McCain going into the lion's den - NAACP - and in the audience a black man sits unashamedly reading the paper - held out right in front of him. I have yet to see white people in Obama's audience reading the paper. And, uniformly, it is those racist whites who cheer for Obama over his detractors.
Racism as is convenient. Racism as was the first line of attack in the primaries. First black nominee got there using race as a dividing factor. He teleprompts speeches extolling unity and transcending race and yet allows the Clintons to be painted as racists - still. Has he reached out to the black community like Sen Clinton did hers? Nope. He means nothing he says. His words are not followed by actions - just look at his track record. Look how he's veered from the left. He is the messiah of political expediency with Change! referring to his "positions". Can't exactly say in the debate: I agree with Sen Clinton on that...my position is no different...we agree on that..."
How is anyone buying this fraud? Does anyone believe Obama could make a life-changing, world-changing decision by himself in less than 30 seconds? Not a chance...unless the Mrs is standing there directing him.
"The signs said Obama was for gay marriage and abortion, and said his candidacy was "endorsed by the KKK."Another sign said, "Jesse Jackson hates Obama." Obama originally said the protesters could stay inside the event, but they were escorted out when they would not stop shouting."
...aka when he couldn't get them under control. Surprise? Not. How rabid would be the MSM if the signs said: 'Whites against Obama!"?
"...Imperial Wizard exclaimed that anything or anyone is better than having that "crazy ass bitch" as President....The boy's gonna do it. My Klan group has donated up to $250,000 to the Obama fund. Anything is better than Hillary Clinton. Hell I'll even adopt a black kid from Africa before I vote for Hillary. A few years back we were lynching negroes. Now we're gonna vote for one to be president of the US of motherfu**ing A, damn it! Anyone or anything is better than Hillary Clinton - anything!!"
Why Barry doesn't do townhalls. Eventually the Secret Service tossed the guys out. All those racist white folks in the audience chanting "0-baaaa-ma" to quiet a group of black Obama protesters. It doesn't get any more racist than this.
April 30, 2008 Des Moines, Iowa Polk County Convention Center - McCain healthcare forum
The man who asked such a vile question is Marty Parrish - a business owner and Baptist minister who has a master's in political science, has worked on Capital Hill and moved to IA from AR to work for Biden campaign. He said he was concerned about McCain's temperament. Fair assessment. So why not ask that straight out? But the question, the leaflet, the preamble and the excuse don't match up - as well as the fact that he signed in as a HuffPo reporter, was taking pictures and knows his way around Capitol Hill. In truth, he had read an article in the HuffPo that mentioned McCain's alleged statement about his wife and got pissed that McCain got away with that but Barry was getting hammered about Wright and those racist bitterites.
PARRISH: "A guy who would call his wife a trollop and a cunt just because she had ruffled his hair in front of five guys is not only a jerk, but a dangerous hothead if he ever gets his finger on the button. And since the mainstream media has decided to give McCain a free pass, I decided to stand up and, if they gave me an open mike, ask the question that the press refuses to touched. Our country is in a serious crisis after nearly eight years of Bush, and America appears to be oblivious to the danger this guy (McCain) poses to our country."
PARRISH: "We have a man whose temper can get the best of him. What I am worried about is his temper. Our country is in a serious crisis. This election is the most significant one since 1860. It appears America is asleep -- so I stood up and asked the question."
PARRISH: "I wanted them to know that I was acting out of a genuine concern for my country and my belief that a man whose temper often gets the best of him should be disqualified for the presidency."
Most significant election since 1860? Then why the subterfuge? Why not ask that point directly? He made up a flier and then got 500 copies made and moveon.org staff helped pass them out. According to Chris Dorsey at Iowa Politics.com
He handed out a leaflet prior to the event alleging McCain called his wife the name in 1992 while on the campaign trail running for re-election in the Senate. The leaflet asked members of media why they were focusing on the controversial statements made in the past by Democratic candidate Sen. Barack Obama's pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright and ignoring the alleged comment McCain made to his wife.
"Barack Obama spent three weeks defending that," Parrish said afterwards.
"Why does the news media continue to ignore this outrageous statement by John McCain, but fixates on Barack Obama's truthful observation that some people are bitter?" the leaflet reads.
I can't seem to find the leaflet anywhere. Basically a bot was pissed that barry was getting hammered about his bitter statement and rev wright and saw an opening and pounced. Nothing new. Definition of an obamabot. PARRISH: "This question goes to mental health and mental health care. Previously, I've been married to a woman that was verbally abusive to me. Is it true that you called your wife a cunt?
MCCAIN: Now, now. You don't want to... Um, you know that's the great thing about town hall meetings, sir, but we really don't, there's people here who don't respect that kind of language. So I'll move on to the next questioner in the back.
A group of about a dozen anti-abortion protestors interrupted one of Barack Obama's New Hampshire rallies Monday night.
The group shouted in unison, 'Abortion is abomination,' forcing Obama to pause in the middle of his speech. When the noise erupted, Obama first paused and looked up into the balcony where they were standing.
"Alright," Obama said, attempting to squelch the commotion. "Alright."
The rest of the crowd soon got angry with the protestors.
"No need to boo. We appreciate [their] point," Obama said, adding that he'd be happy to talk to them afterwards but that shouting "isn't going to solve anything."
The whole incident lasted about two minutes before they were escorted out by police.
Before leaving the room, one protestor yelled, "True change is ending abortion!" Change has been a major theme of Obama's campaign. Once the audience calmed down again, Obama said,"Let me just say this, though… Some people got organized to do that. That's part of the American tradition we are proud of."
"That's hard, too, standing in the midst of people who don't agree with you."
That last line says it all. What's he going to do at a White House briefing? Or the UN? The adoring press won;t be so adoring once they've gotten him elected.
