Obama's Independents Problem

Obama is a Muslim.

Obama is a Muslim.

His father was Muslim.

Obama is a Muslim.

His step father was Muslim.

In the Muslim world, Obama is a Muslim.

In Asian countries, such as Japan and most of the world, you follow your father.

Obama is considered a Muslim in all of these countries.

The Asian say, you follow your father.

Obama may not be a practicing Muslim, but he is a considered a Muslim in most of the world.

Obama is a Muslim. period

neither

I don't think Obama's a Muslim, but he's darn sure not a Christian either. That stuff they preach in his church is definitely not the Gospel of Christ. Did you see everybody jumping around and cheering while the priest makes fun of Hillary? Can you imagine Jesus acting like that?

McCain not Credible on Issues

McCain's claim to being experience provides no comfort to anyone, after all if that was the standard in 2000, he should have beaten G.W. Bush, why did he fail? Secondly, he has shown bad judgement by corting Rev. Hagee, reaffirming his acceptance of support after the problem with Catholics, but only now denounces him after the Hitler remark.

McCain cannot explain how he hopes to tame the rogue states, and enemies of the United States, if not through dialogue. He expects that we are dumb enough to think that a US president just jumps into AF1 to go and talk to other leaders as long as he says there will be no "pre-conditions". Surely, when one sits down to dinner, they do not need to state that they will use their mouths to eat. That is an unstated fact. In the same light, cross-national talks require preparations, the detailes of which are best left unstated.

To the Christian Conservatives single issue voters when it comes to politics? I read of people urging a stay at home because some candidates support abortion, or some other thing. It is myopic and self defeating if you expect to punish a political candidate by with-holding your vote on such an issue. Of what importance are issues like poverty, injustice, greed, racism, crime, tolerance, to you?

Finally, the war in Iraq: Consider the cost per month- Billions. Looking at this shaky economy, how will McCain balance the budget, revive the economy and also support the war in Iraq for the nex four years? I bet even his most able economic adviser will ask him to dodge this question. He seimply can make the facts stand on their own. A third Bush term will eb America's worst nioghtmare for it will affect us all- and McCain knows he cannot be able to help us.

Faith

"Seven of the 12 focus-group participants believed that Obama is a Muslim. He is, in fact, a Christian. Seven of the 12 focus-group participants believed that 0bama is a Muslim. He is, in fact, a Christian."

I wish writers like Kenneth T. Walsh wouldn't explain things this way because the facts are the holy book requires the Islamic faith to be passed on by the father so that technically Obama is a Muslim. However, he has renounced his Muslim faith and has become an alleged Christian. This would make him an apostate which is complicated by the fact that Obama has joined a liberation theology church which deviates from Christianity to the point where it may legitimately be considered a cult. In other words the situation is a really big mess and a lot of people could be sensing this and may be groping around for words to express it.

7 out of 10

Where did they get these people, from under a rock?

McCain has sought the support of Hagee who has said "the Catholic church is the great prostitute of religion and a false cult". He has said "Hitler was doing God's work by bringing the Holocaust on the Jewish people".

McCain has sought the support of Falwell who said "America brought 911 on itself and it was a punishment from God".

McCain's spiritual adviser Parsley has said "America was founded for the purpose of exterminating Muslims and the false religion of Islam".

McCain should change his political slogan to "Americans for religious intolerance, Xenophobia and Homophobia".

A joke

I’m 35, and have been following politics for quite a while, and I’ve never been so disappointed with a politician I’ve admired and respected. Yesterday’s tactics weren’t just wrong, they were offensive. For that matter, they seem to be part of a deliberate strategy to tear Democrats apart and ensure a defeat in November.

For several weeks, I’ve appreciated the fact that Clinton considers herself the superior candidate, and has kept her campaign going in the hopes, from her perspective, of saving the party from itself. But after yesterday, it’s become impossible for me to consider Clinton’s intentions honorable. Her conduct is not that of a leader.

Instead of trying to help bring the party together — Election Day is 24 weeks away — Clinton went to Florida to argue that if Barack Obama is the Democratic nominee, his nomination will be illegitimate. And if the DNC plays by the rules Clinton used to support, it’s guilty of vote-suppression — comparable to slavery, Jim Crow, and Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe.

It is disgusting for HRC to co-opt the Civil Rights struggle after weeks of transparent appeals that whites won’t vote for the black guy which JUST SO COINCIDENTALLY took form during the Appalachian primaries (which conveniently occurred after North Carolina, the last state with a large black population)

It really is disgusting, and yet another nail in the coffin of what used to be Bill and Hillary's positive legacy to the party. She is now being openly mocked across the media and political spectrum. But I'm sure mentioning that is "sexist", and that everyone criticizing the joke her campaign has become is sexist as well.
