HEY NOAM! Uh, what do you mean Charles rogered the thread - looks ok to me!

Why weren't they complaining before LGF starting pointing it out?

Maybe the My.Barackobama.com website is being administered in Malaysia by outsourced IT, and they don't see anything wrong with these views.

At your servix, Obamatons.

No, they're not. They're playing the piano.

Why have the Black Panthers and socialist/marxist groups been posting on Obama's website for months with no complaints?

I see a migration of Barry's supporters over to McCain.

Keep the hits coming Charles - and thank you!

It'll be interesting, to say the least, if "Terri" receives a response and if so, what the response will be.
I mean, as Charles has so well documented (and has screen captures of, I hope) some of these blogs have been out there for many, many months!
And, according to Rueters (sorry, don't have the darn link) Obama spent 117% of what he took in during his days fighting Hillary, but still maintains a paid staff of over 700, while McCain isn't doing bad at "cash in the bank" but with only 200 people employed.

Crosspost

While on the name "Emmanuel" check out this jerk's blog series on John McCain at MyBarackObama.com.

He posted it today. Those Obamatons have been deleting entries all dy, so this must have survived the "purity" test.

Includes:

John McCain's infamous temper has been wildly underreported in the media. For instance: The beautiful young woman who is presented to the media as his daughter is really an actress - McCain beat his real daughter to death when she was two and crying with hunger (the McCains do not believe in pampering the young by feeding them). McCain hates children and will not permit any such "stupid mewling whelps" anywhere near him.

And

A long time friend of mobster John Gotti, McCain still receives a pension from the Mafia. He holds seven different bank accounts under different names, into which his various bribes are deposited. He also receives regular payment from the Iranian Supreme Council of Ayotollahs, and is frequently heard to mutter "Blessblessbless, blessbless Iran!" under his breath when he thinks no one can hear him.

And

As a Prisoner of War, McCain was subjected to the secret sexual brainwashing techinques of the Viet Cong; day and night he was subjected to male rape, until he begged for more. this sex addiction was enhanced through the use of various narcotics, especially hashish and heroin. After his spirit had thus been broken, the VC brought in an Iranian Imam who carefully educated McCain in the ways of the cult of Islamo-Marxism, which teaches an Allah-centered faith in the necessity for global revolution led by a totalitarian elite acquiring power through long-term, dedicated subversion of opponent governments like that of America. McCain released to the US thus became an embedded mole a real Manchurian candidate, doing anything, saying anything, to become President. Once he takes the oath of office, he will devastate the economy and set up a socialist dictatorship.

These assertions are all intended to be "funny" no doubt and to point out how dull we all are if we take them seriously.

I am just disgusted at the mind that thought it all up. And that it passed the barack obama censors.

re: #56 DesertSage

Sage, Sage ... Sage.

One of the first things I noticed with the Gallup poll is the lack of undecided. All voter have not decided five months before an election so the pollster must have framed the question as an either-or with no undecided option. Also missing are third parties.

Secondly, Obama and McCain have been tracking nicely until the past few days during which Obama received unbelievably positive attention in the MSM. This will change. Today's high Obama number is the best he's done against McCain since the head-to-head poll started.

Thirdly, it is a five day rolling average. It takes about three days for bad or good news to be fully reflected in the poll. Just wait.

Fourthly, Gallup rightly polls both landline and cell phones. In this election, this may mean over-polling kids who don't vote.

Fifthly, Gallup polls registered, not likely voters. "Likely" is another screen added to registered and is thus much more accurate. Generally, likely voters are two or three percent more Rep than registered voters.

Sixthly, NO poll in June has shown Republicans winning however in the last ten presidential elections, Republicans have won seven.

Seventhly, Gallup has been very inaccurate with the state primaries/caucuses this year which suggests their general election numbers are also incorrect.

Eighthly, None know what the uptick in Democratic registration means ... or that of Democratic ID. In past elections, Dem ID has always been far greater than Dem vote. Since they "balance" their polls with pre-determined opinions on how the D - I - R should be weighted, it is always interesting to see what they believe the R percentage will be. Historically they have underestimated R turnout and overestimated D turnout. I'm not paying for the premium Gallup access so I have no idea what the "internals" may show.

And ninthly, kids really don't vote, particularly college kids. In every election the Dems claim the youth vote for their own -- but they don't show. They'll work for minimum wage for campaigns, but free labor and time is beyond them. Thus, the vaunted youth vote -- which Gallup may be overestimating -- is myth.

Okay, that's enough. Sorry for the rant.

At this point, there will be few committed going to undecided. It will be like flipping a switch for the vast majority. The key to the election is knowing where to find which switches to switch.

We need to work hard at that.

How about creating a "Peace Class" as a recommend in K-12 academics. We could fit it in by interweaving it with American history, wouldn't those two go good together. The peace class would teach kids the importance of doing homework on time, running, reading, exercising, meditating, socializing, getting them involved in a community garden or school garden, and many more issues. If we can start by making a peace class then we would finally be assured that we'll not get a president who grew up watching cowboys n indians(TV), while eating chips n soda(COKE), and then we would be ready to create a Department of Peace, one that employes those most recommended by their teachers, tutors, counselors, and professors. Then when we do that we will make it so that whoever wants to become the president of N.America or any other such position will need to show prof of recommendation from their teachers, tutors, counselors, and professors. We can make this and many more together, starting in your community.

I was just going to say the same thing. We end up with a skewed vision because we are bombarded with liberal crap ad nauseum. There are few opposing points of view allowed on the left coast.

I travel often and one of the surprising facts of this big, big country is how liberals tend to gather in enclaves. Generally libs are found in tourist-towns (where they try to sell their mediocre "art"), university surrounds and the urban coastal cities.

The rest of the country is much more poltically diverse (except for Utah, which is pleasantly Republican).

Obama's web moderators are almost as good as the Mets bullpen.

re: #128 JeremyR
He's "high" on the number of people under his bus!

I had expected that real people in the Dem party would begin to assert themselves on the blog issue once the initial flush of denialism and drug-culture conspiracy theories had passed. Good on them.

Considering the Obama campaign's lack of compunction about throwing people under the proverbial bus, it is remarkable that they seem so stubborn, almost defiant, about hanging onto these crazy blog elements.

Perhaps the crazies are the real heart of Obamania and they cannot be tossed overboard without unraveling the whole campaign?

If so, it may already be too late to make any worthwhile changes and we can expect a lot of Democratic voters to cross over to McCain. This is something the dogmatic McCain bashers on the far right might want to ponder. McCain can attract moderate liberal voters, while Obama has no chance of bringing over anyone who could be called conservative by any reasonable definition. In fact, he seems less and less likely to hang onto any moderate liberals.

Certainly McCain has Florida in the bag, a huge plus so early in the campaign, since any Florida Dem who is not a far-gone Marxist kool-aid drinker is going to be outraged at the DNC's slave-census solution to the Florida/Michigan primary issue.
We already see this in the defection of big-time Jewish Democrats in Florida, about which I posted earlier.

Again, I will go out on a limb and predict that Obama will suffer a defeat of historic proportions in November. Among other things, his unstinting media support may start to work against him as media pundits become more and more transparent in their growing desperation.

re: #118 really grumpy big dog Johnson

Hi Grumpy,

Gallup pushes people into making political decisions that are not quite real. So their percentage of undecideds is quite low. Most other polls have the undecided higher.

If I was to hazard a guess, I'd say that about 14-18 percent of Americans can be swayed at this point. And yes, this is our target. Although we may not like it, McCain's liberalism appeals to them. The outlook may be pretty good.

re: #132 hermeneutics

I travel often and one of the surprising facts of this big, big country is how liberals tend to gather in enclaves. Generally libs are found in tourist-towns (where they try to sell their mediocre "art"), university surrounds and the urban coastal cities.

The rest of the country is much more poltically diverse (except for Utah, which is pleasantly Republican).

They tend to gather in places where work is not found, especially government buildings.

Sheesh.

You know, the Obama '08 bus is sort of like the bus in Speed. Stay with me here.

It has a bunch of misfits on board basically scaring everyone else. (every liberal nut on earth is grabbing on to the railing...)

It has someone driving that talks before she thinks. (the Shrew)

There is a bomb on board that threatens to put a "hole in the world". (pick your favorite Obama policy that will destroy our national security or economy)

The bomb was put there by a madman. (Wright, Pflager, Ayers, Farrakhan, et al.)

The good guys are borderline powerless to stop it. (McCain running behind)

If it slows below 55 mph, it explodes (kind of a metaphor for the whole "Quick-make-Obama-President-before-everyone-finds -out-he's a-liberal-wack-job" bit)

People that end up under the bus are either really or figuratively dead...

re: #135 Shiplord Kirel

Considering the Obama campaign's lack of compunction about throwing people under the proverbial bus, it is remarkable that they seem so stubborn, almost defiant, about hanging onto these crazy blog elements.

Perhaps the crazies are the real heart of Obamania and they cannot be tossed overboard without unraveling the whole campaign?

The Democratic party is a coalition of broken wings and social strays. Its not like there's a neat line between the crazies and the rest of them -- its more like a continuum into weirdness. So cutting off what we would consider the crazies is sorta like drawing an artificial line to them for what exists on either side of that line looks remarkably the same.

Is 'Obamatons' or 'Obamatrons"? I've seen it written both ways.

Well, an "Obamaton" is a mindless drone without free will, that unquestioningly follows Obama. Think "automaton".

OTOH, an "Obamatron" is a Transformer type robot that morphs from a pro-American democrat to an anti-American socialist, and back again, depending on which form best suits it's immediate needs.

It's completely berserk, when you consider the potential up- and downsides of an approval process. The downside is that some guy has to click 'approved' after glancing at each blog.

The upside, of course, is that you keep your site monster-free. Which seems worthwhile, when you're running for President.

re: #194 Charles Yes, but Charles, if you go to his website and look at the

You'll also notice that under "People" they have a LOT of types (including First Americans which turn out to be Native Americans or Indians) but they do not have "Elderly" "Men" or "White" on that drop down menu (although they do have African-Americans, LGBT, People of Faith, et.al.). Isn't that a way to make sure that the blogs fall into line with Obama's supposed or wished for supporters?

I have to disagree with you Charles. It is not amazing at all.

Those of us who end up in the conservative camp, by conviction or by default, know damned well that he or she is fallible, that is capable of making a mistake. As a result each of us make the effort to obtain all the valid information possible and to separate truth from falsehood.

But the folks on the other side see themselves as perfect, superior, or infallible. They don't bother to make the effort to see the truth because they feel that they already know the truth. Thus they stumble about from screw-up to screw-up. And they are utterly mystified as to why we won't willingly follow them into the hole.

re: #219 hermeneutics

I wouldn't be surprised if Obama ran again. Really!

Obama has opened the genie in the bottle for other black politicians. If he loses in '08, they won't happily step aside for the Obamessiah again.

They'll want their own, in that unforgettable "Jefferson's" phrase, a piece of the pie.

re: #214 WayDownSouthInBama

I agree with this, and they probably thought they'd get the nast anti-semites on board as well as a variety of more generic whackpacks by letting them express themselves. The bloggers would be allowed to think that O supported them, whether he did or not.

McCain challenged Barack to a series of ten unmoderated town hall-style debates.

Now Obama says that they are in negotiations, and it won't be that many. What amazes me is that a guy who figures he's in the driver's seat doesn't want free debate with the old guy because it's not within his election vision.

If this ends up a stalemate, it's an utter humiliation for Obama.

re: #231 really grumpy big dog Johnson

McCain shines in town hall meetings. Off the cuff remarks are his best platform. Obama flails, missteps, bursts out in a series of ill-timed gaffes.

Dare I say it, he also waffles.

So MyBO contains at least 5 months of steaming dog piles, and only now when someone brings it to their attention so they notice and act. Even Kos cleans house every so often.

Has anyone checked to see if there are any (and how many) common poster handles between MyBO, Kos, DU and other leftist sites?

Interesting that “groups” must be approved.

This means that someone in the BO organization approved the groups that left log-piles, skid marks and basic stink all over My BO. They left this stuff on the MyBO website for months.

I wonder how BHO will spin his way out of this.

Further, I wonder if Hillary’s delegates really will vote for BHO. I suspect that with enough publicity, the DNC will have a meeting or two, with the aim of fixing things. I doubt that this stink is easily fixable.

I think that with enough publicity, very many Americans will wake up and vote, and not for BHO.

But the publicity has to happen, and McCain has to talk to these BHO waek points.

What slays me is that Obama doesn't just disagree with people like you and me...he hates us as symbols of everything that is wrong with America...the fact that we exist just steams him and the Shrew; don't get me started.

re: #228 The Other Les

I have to disagree with you Charles. It is not amazing at all.

Those of us who end up in the conservative camp, by conviction or by default, know damned well that he or she is fallible, that is capable of making a mistake. As a result each of us make the effort to obtain all the valid information possible and to separate truth from falsehood.

But the folks on the other side see themselves as perfect, superior, or infallible. They don't bother to make the effort to see the truth because they feel that they already know the truth. Thus they stumble about from screw-up to screw-up. And they are utterly mystified as to why we won't willingly follow them into the hole.

This is really interesting ... essentially, are you saying that because we have a "negative anthropology" (or a jaded view of human nature), that we're humbed and chided by what we know are human sins and frailties? And, conversely, that liberals, because they have such an elevated view of human nature -- one that admits no limitations or intrinsic evil -- that they are simply incapable of judging themselves harshly?

Thinking here ...

You know, part of me wants to take this honestly and at face value. I'm sure there are some diehard Obama supporters who are like "WTF?" when seeing these blogs pop up. And of course they're embarassed because it makes Obama look like a jerkface (which they do very well).

And you know what? I don't see this as an entirely bad thing. Things like this make the Obama faithful start to ask questions, which is always a good thing.

I am fully prepared for whatever.

re: #158 DesertSage

Thank you hermeneutics, I feel better now. You have a way of calming my nerves :')

I second the thanks. I was looking at that poll chart -- heart sinks in direct proportion as BO line rises.

p.s. hermeneutics -- I have photos of the memorial we were talking about a few threads ago; if you would still like them, just make your nic blue so I can contact you, or let me know how I can go about doing that with mine.

re: #224 republic Please see my #211.

re: #234 hermeneutics

If he comes close, he may run again. Think Nixon in 1960 ... and then, again, in 1968. Lost ... then won.

Seems plausible.

Can you imagine the reaction of women in the Democrat party?

"You mean he gets another shot? What is this affirmative action for candidates? He gets to keep trying until he succeeds?"

Ouch.

Right Wing bloggers?

I guess dingdong has never read any left wing blogs or he'd know they sell crazy on a regular basis.

Hey, the left coined the belief,

"evil is the victim of Good".

I think Charles is right in asserting that the MyBO blog will keep producing fruit all the way up to election day.

For grins I queried up today's posts with "impeach" in them.

Here is a sample:

Post from Mike's Blog:
IMPEACH THE CRIMINALS!

Thank you Dennis Kuchinich for bringing up 35 articles of impeachment against Bush!

Hopefully the House acts upon this before it's too late!

Call your congressmen, senators, representatives, and tell them to do their job for the American people and uphold the Constitution by supporting to impeach Bush!

And a little over half an hour ago some guy commented the post with this:

By Jason from Norman, OK 36 minutes ago
I have not heard anything from Obama that made me question if he was right for the job until now. The fact that he does not support impeachment of Bush and Cheney does not sit well with me to say the least. I was compelled to vote for Obama and have been a stedfast supporter of Obama since Iowa.
I really Believe in his campaign for change As a key demographic to this campaign (working class white male) I am saddened by Obama's lack of backbone here no President in history deserves to be impeached more the Bush administration this goes especially for Dick Cheney they should not only be impeached but tried as war criminals for 4000 plus murders! For misleading the American Public and dragging us into a War. I bet Cheney would not be so quick to say and I quote SO. to the 4000 plus families who have lost a family member to this war that was brought to the American Public on a foundation of LIES. While these fine soldiers are fighting a war they themselves do not support their families back home are losing everything they have due to recession caused by the war and the policies brought on by this administration there a thousands of families that have lost their members to this war based on lies, but how many thousands wounded or are mentally ill and need help from post traumatic stress. It has been proven that this administration does not care for the well being of its soldiers because The Bush administration values Oil over blood. And Why Not? it is not their blood. In Washington how can we believe in change if no one is willing to stand up for us and say this is WRONG and YOU CANT DO IT. I applaud and whole heartedly agree with Kucinich we need to let them know they are not above the law. I am sure they think they are above the law. Doing nothing in the face of such evils is wrong! We need to reinstate the Constitution fo the United Steates of America and Habeus Corpus and hold accountable anyone (even the president or vice president)who tries to repeal our rights! Barack Obama we need you to be our voice and fight for us What is the point of voting if there is no change in sight. YES WE CAN

MyBO needs to be exposed as Koolaide central for a irrational political movement that shares few of the values of typical Americans. Obama has labeled himself as a uniter for change, but this is all the same old partisan crap from mindless leftist revolutionary wannabees.

No need for Mobys. Obama has handed them a microphone. Let them talk, and turn up the amp so everyone can hear. Get the word out, email the links. Obama = dKos in 30 days. And we know how dKos does at election time.

Hermeneutics, remember that Hegelian philosophy concentrates on the systemic failings of history. It's never about the individual.

re: #245 wannabuyaduck

Oh thank you. Nic blue!

re: #238 swamprat

Lesbian Nazis for Obama. Alien abductee time-share salespersons for Obama. NAMBLA divorcees for Obama
....Must resist.....weakening.......would they notice?...how could they tell the difference?

Necropedophilaphobes for Obama!

Fortuneatly, our nation has shown it is tough enough to endure almost anything. We will get through these dark times too.

I disagree, if Obama packaged up and sold his own poop, these idiots would buy it all.

How whacked out are the Kos Kooks?

Someday History Will Honor Dennis Kucinich.

re: #242 hermeneutics

I think I just summarized a large part of what Ayn Rand was thinking when she wrote ATLAS SHRUGGED.

Seriously. There are some days where I feel like I'm living on a page of that novel.

re: #231 really grumpy big dog Johnson

I think Obama should meet McCain

without preconditions

.

He should extend to McCain the same courtesy he wants to extend to Iran's Mullahs and North Korea's Nuclear Thug.

re: #220 buzzsawmonkey

It is hard not to be extremely pessimistic.

We are in cultural and intellectual decline.
I don't know if the trend can be halted, much less reversed.

re: #247 brainwizard73

Can you imagine the reaction of women in the Democrat party?

"You mean he gets another shot? What is this affirmative action for candidates? He gets to keep trying until he succeeds?"

Ouch.

I have a hunch that many of the older/middle-age women who were thrilled with Hillary will sit out this election or vote for McCain out of spite. IF, though, the Dems don't run a woman in 2012, and the Republicans run a Thatcher-like woman, I betcha they'll vote Republican.

Good strategy?

re: #250 karmic_inquisitor

Oh...God...make them...stop...

Falling out of chair...tears...laughing...snorting...

I couldn't make it up if I tried!

re: #249 republic

hmmmm, I sorta thought they denied evil.

re: #250 karmic_inquisitor

I think Charles is right in asserting that the MyBO blog will keep producing fruit all the way up to election day.

The only way they'll be able to stop it is to either start moderating them, or shut them down entirely -- and imagine the screaming from the hordes if they did either one.

This is going to be a gift that keeps on giving for months.
