Obama - the great uniter.

Gotta go talk to a man about a horse....

The left seems to be intent on blowing themselves up in short order. It amazes me that the party is still around. I think if this lunacy continues, the vast majority of clear thinking American's will not vote for Obama.

In honor of flag day

(sorry for the quick OT)

re: #1 coquimbojoe

Exactly, they are upset because this type of exposure will diminish the great marxist uniter's chance for victory, not because they disagree with it.

You can always rely on the Left to defend the indefensible, to be tolerant of the intolerant, to apply a standard of no standards. They are vacuous, vapid, and have the emotional maturity of a 10-year old.

Obama is undeniably a uniter. I ask you- who else out there could unite the jihadists with the black supremacists, 9/11 troofers, che-worshipping socialists and craven anti-semites?

Key word in this thread is few supporters are upset.

This proves the dangers involved in electing Barack Obama as leader of the free world, be afraid, be very afraid. This is why it doesn't surprise me Obama is the left's choice for POTUS nominee.

Maybe some lights are coming on, even at "Crooks and Liars."

Commenter mike says:

I’m left, I’m pro-Obama. I cannot speak to the truth of the claim that anti-semitic or other posts are being made on Obama’s site. But I can say that the right wing blog has it right when it says that it is no excuse to say you are running an open forum.

If you are running for the Presidency, then everything that appears on YOUR web sites is YOUR content. If you don’t delete it you endorse it. PERIOD. There should be no argument about this.You have no business being in the business of running a free market of ideas. Furthermore, if you DO delete some comments (and I’ll bet the Obama campaign does, then you have all the less legitimacy claiming “open forum” for other comments.

Again, I don’t know the facts of how many such comments are on Obama’s site, and I don’t know whether they are “really” antisemitic or anti-Jewish or anti-Israel... usually it is pretty much the same thing in my experience... but if Obama’s campaign doesn’t delete them I for one am going to have to assume they consider such views to be within the realm of reasonable discourse. I can’t see any other way to interpret it.

I hope more are reading and beginning to understand what the concern could be, rather than just passing it off as "right wing dirty tricks."

Charles, like most everyone else I'm fascinated with the Spy feature. I notice sometimes it seems to "stick" in place for me, I just rated a couple comments and had to refresh the Spy feature to get it moving. It skipped my ratings, I'm wondering if it's my browser (Firefox).

I happen to think that Obama is a decent guy but he is in over his head and he has made too many compromises over the years, allowing him to gain national prominence well before he was really ready.
Right now, he is completely losing ideological control of his campaign as he seems either unable or unwilling to rein in the crazies.
Compromising with crazies (Wright for example) is one of the things that got him this far and he may not quite realize that things are very different at the national level. This is very likely to bring the Democrats a disaster of historic dimensions in November.

re: #65 wolfie

Phony.

From the Crooks and Liars site:

“The practice has always been rather self-defeating. In fact, about a year ago, Kevin Drum came up with a sensible maxim: “If you’re forced to rely on random blog commenters to make a point about the prevalence of some form or another of disagreeable behavior, you’ve pretty much made exactly the opposite point.” Eventually, the practice was even given a name: “Nutpicking” (emphasis mine)

The implication of “random”, as used in the C&L post, is what? “atypical of the posts in the blog/thread in question”, “noticeably different in viewpoint from the majority of posts”, perhaps “cherry-picked”?

Yet C&L then posts this LGF quote (of C.):

“A search of the official my.barackobama.com site for “Jewish Lobby” reveals an enormous amount of antisemitic hatred being posted.... There are hundreds, possibly thousands, of posts that refer to the “Jewish lobby” at the Obama site. I stopped looking at the results on page 10. [...]”
(again, emphasis mine)

“hundreds, possibly thousands of posts” is clearly not the same as “random” as used by C&L. Literate readers know this, the writer should too.

Side question: suppose that repeated, randomly picked (perhaps a Monte Carlo simulation), questions from a site/thread.etc., show some sort of bias; does this then indicate the values of the site?

Perhaps Kevin Drum is wrong. It looks like C&L loses again.

Then this:
“There are a couple of problems with this approach. First, the Obama campaign (to its credit) created an open online forum. Anyone can “post a blog there,” and it’s not the campaign’s fault when someone adds offensive content.”

“(to its credit)”? Ha. Ha.

“...not the campaign’s fault ...”?
- What is the job of their moderators?
- What is the bias of their moderators?

“Second, the campaign has moderators to delete the truly ridiculous posts and comments, but it’s hard to keep up with the level of abusive text.”

The moderators seem unwilling “ to delete the truly ridiculous posts and comments”, the hundreds /thousands of them (for months), until the existence of comments is publicized. Then the posts disappear with no apparent “logistical problem”.

“That’s just a practical, logistical problem, but it hardly speaks to bigotry within the campaign or among the campaign’s supporters in general.”

Actually, it points the finger of agreement with the posts in question at the campaign.

Indeed, “Crooks and Liars” seems appropriately self-named.

Don't know how you define decent but he is for sure a racist and unamerican, so is his wifey that calls us cracka's!

I have a feeling that somewhere deep within the Democrat Party there are people trying to figure out how the Democrats can take the Presidency if Obama is not their candidate at that time and how to make it happen. Seems to have happened to the Dems before a couple of times in the last 50 years that I can think of.

Hate speech from the mouth of Obama!

Mobster wisdom tells us never to bring a knife to a gun fight. But what does political wisdom say about bringing a gun to a knife fight?

That's exactly what Barack Obama said he would do to counter Republican attacks "If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun," Obama said at a Philadelphia fundraiser Friday night. "Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl. I've seen Eagles fans."

This is grossly irresponsible. For any one to talk about bringing a knife or gun to the political campaign even figuratively is threatening in that there are people crazy enough to follow the words of Obama and do just that and literally try to harm McCain. What a stupid, ignorant, irresponsible thing to say in a presidential campaign. And the fact that the words came from Obama is just unbelievable. Again, Obama clearly demonstrates his total lack of judgment.

Obamas has scheduled for this MONDAY a teleconference, his first high level contacts with Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari. (McCainwill meet privately Sunday with Mr. Zebari).

Some Sunnis Iraqi lawmaker Ala Maaki, says Al Maliki & Moqtada Al Sadr may be trying to one up each other trying to take the strongest stand against the Americans.

WHO do you think will sell America out to anti-American, pro-Iranian, pro-chaos & Al Qaedan elements?

I ask you, fellow humans!

On Obama's anti-smear site it debunks the rumor that He has ever been a Muslim. The claim is that he is a commited Chtristian.
Their assertion is very false. After Fox ran with the story that Barry attended a madrassa in Indonesia, one of the networks sent a crew to dispeove the story & they did. I believe that it was 20/20.
The headmaster of a public school had records of Obama sttending from grades 2 through 6 , registerd as a Muslim. He recieved 2 hours of Islamic instruction daily.
Further Barry likes to allege that he attended Catholic school in Jakarta about half of that time. BS, no record

re: #121 rollingdivision

That's because he's a leader in the violent background of his associates.

re: #74 vagabond trader
Well, not an election. A coronation or, perhaps, merely the Second Coming.

The only references to that ("bring a knife to the fight") which I'm finding on the web are in bloggers comments.

Even if there's a record, you can attend Catholic school without being Catholic, but I've never heard of a non-Muslim attending a Muslim school.

re: #135 rollingdivision

Thanks.

I don't believe that he is a Muslim today and I don't believe he is a Christian either.
His ideology is Marxism. His religion is Obamaism.

re: #123 'Nam Grunt

Thanks for the thought. I'm gonna start hoarding REAL light bulbs pronto.

Four more years of Carter, er Obama

From Crooks and Liars

There are a couple of problems with this approach. First, the Obama campaign (to its credit) created an open online forum. Anyone can “post a blog there,” and it’s not the campaign’s fault when someone adds offensive content.

Interesting. So transparent that I found this community this morning, which is only open to the few they will allow in. Cannot view the blog, members, etc.

Open!

re: #140 wolfie

and every other dang thing the Obama and Co. don't want the grubby masses having. Like food, oil, guns, ammo, money.

re: #140 wolfie

Thanks for the thought. I'm gonna start hoarding REAL light bulbs pronto.

This may soon be a wonderful business opportunity for some foreign incandescent light bulb dealer to import incandescents into the states at premium prices! Do you think they'll start checking for incandescent light bulbs coming into the country once they're illegal?

re: #146 rollingdivision

If the moonbats have their way they'll be indoctrinating our kids to tattle if we don't use the correct bulb!

Lefty friends say, "It's not anti-semitism. It's free speech. I'm strongly in favor of free speech."
And I say, " But on the candidates website wouldn't you think he would present his own positions? Does that mean these things are his own positions?"
And they say, "No, it's just free speech."
And I say, "Then how can you tell where he stands on these issues?"
And they say, "That's not important. Free speech is the important thing."

This is during a different conversation from the one where I'm treated to a dissertation on the fabulous Cuban medical system with clinics on every street and if they can do it, we should be able to.

re: #147 vagabond trader

Sounds fantastic, but you're not far off.
Kids are often grilled in school about what their parents do re energy use, recycling, smoking, food served, etc.

If the Obamanation can't manage one website, how can he manage a nation of three hundred millions, and a government of three millions?

re: #146 rollingdivision

I went to a discount store recently, and bought a lot of light bulbs "Made in Hungary". Kinda surprised that China hadn't drove them out of business.

That reminds me of the time Mr. Wolf and I went up to Canada and smuggled a toilet back into the US! (This was right after our beloved leaders mandated low-flow toilets that didn't work, but before Canada banned them.) I don't actually know whether we were committing a crime or not, but I was still sweating bullets!

re: #144 vagabond trader

Honest. I'm not really a muslim. I only converted to islam for access to his here blog. Whaddaya mean the penalty is death?

Better hoard toilet paper too, cause the moonbats are going to start selling it in single sheets. HAHAHA!

#142 William Teach

An interesting link. I saved a screenshot, as I suspect that it might disappear soon. The combination of the Group Profile : "We are a group of . . ." and the members-only note under Blog are unusual.

Apparently, C&L is wrong again; BHO's website isn't quite as open as C&L says.

I tried to give you a plus, but there seems to be a code problem, and I just get sent to the front page. Your rating seems to be unchanged.

re: #151 JHW

Me too. But I'd sure prefer to buy Hungarian than Chinese right now.

When we start buying in bulk, I'll be sure to see where the bulbs are made.
Maybe I can find some not made in China.

re: #155 'Nam Grunt

Cheryl Crow says to use 1 sheet at a time to save the earth. Somehow, I don't think she likes tacos or cabbage rolls.

re: #74 vagabond trader

No S***?

BHO is considering a world tour?

Why, so he can get the details from the sell-ees on how they'd like him to sell us out?

That disqualifies BHO yet again in my eyes, for the job of POTUS.

*spit, spit, spit.*

re: #161 Ojoe

It's really a shame that we have to hoard light bulbs in this day and age because of lunatics on the left, better vote Republican, I know McCain is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but the alternative is a NO VOTE! ;-)

re: #106 newsjunkie_ky

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT ENERGY SAVER LIGHT BULBS!
These bulbs are only made in China!

"nj_ky" -

For the record, my place and my office are lighted by CFL's. As the building is metered on one meter I cannot tell you the exact savings. As I have had conventional fluorescent bulbs at home and workplaces for years, and yes have had broken bulbs, I highly suspect the danger of a broken CFL to be Highly Exaggerated. As to the power of Congress to regulate lightbulbs - THINK COMMERCE CLAUSE - as currently interpreted.
As to the "Made in China" only aspect, I suspect that will change with Vietnam as one of several alternate sources.
What gets me angry is the sound-bite of OBAMA on ABC Radio talking about 100mpg cars as being technically feasible and their absence only due to "lack of leadership." In the words of the Great Bugs Bunny - WHAT A MAROON! Not only will OBAMA heal the sick, provide jobs, feed the hungry, and clothe the naked - he will go beyond the Presidential Veto Power AND REPEAL THE LAWS OF THERMODYNAMICS!

Check the label for a voltage rating. If it's 230v, you can expect those to last indefinitely in the US. Downside is they'll put out significantly less light than others designed for 115v or so. World Electricity Standards

Anyone see this yet Baby's Daddy Barry Harry Obama

re: #166 abolitionist

Thanks, I had no idea, I'll check.

re: #36 Charles

Yes, they're all stirred up over there. And they're trying to talk Lawrence Auster into suing me for libel, which would be very amusing. Evariste is doing his best to get Auster enraged.

You're a man of great patience, Charles. I'm guessing every once in a blue moon you laugh your ass off at those lunatics.

re: #166 abolitionist

"ab" -
The Hungarians have been in the lightbulb business here in the US for about 20 years - were they incandescent or CFL.

Another thought - realize that OBAMA can easily get his mileage figure by doing it the "Common Carrier Way" - seat miles/per gallon - as in take my Focus, averaging about 25 mpg combined X 5 Passengers = 125 "smpg" right now. For good measure, he can also get the price of gas to the approximate $1 level - just sell it by the liter.

[You had it right the first time.] :)

There seems to be too much storm and fury here over Obama's mass appeal. He certainly is a "uniter". His problem will unfortunately be who he is uniting under his Messianic banner.

Obama's "folks" will make "typical" white people ( and actually reasonable people of all backgrounds ) very, very uneasy, and Barry, remember, is pretty much an unproven and unknown item.

As a result a Republican Presidential candidate which should have no chance to get elected this year, has a much better chance.

The tree huggers want you to pack it out now in some wilderness areas. I don't get the idea cause "it" is biodegradable. I like the woods as much as anybody but I am not packing out my doo-doo.

Need a 75W bulb @ 115VAC then get the 150W bulb @ 230. You are correct that they will last forever. I know an electrician who had a client (elderly woman) who complained about having to constantly replace the bulb in her china cabinet. Told him to put a diode in series with the lamp, put in 2x Wattage, and he would never get another call from her. It worked. Also later got me a job I wish I had never had.

OT: re: #193 Perplexed

I've done that diode thing too. Got tired of replacing a heat lamp.

The info at the page I linked may be fine (World Electricity Standards - almost certainly plagerized), but the rest of the site is kinda nutty, for example: Water Vortex Magnetizer

And via a redirect, Advanced Bio-Photon Analyzer Matrix 3

ONLY SUBTLE ENERGY INSTRUMENT ON THE MARKET THAT . . .

* Offers simple operation by setting two or three switches
* Allows you to make antidotes to any substance by placing the known toxin (such as chemtrail particles collected on a coffee filter) into the Substance Well, and then creating the antidote in a small vial of spring water placed in the Solution Well

That'll learn me to check out sites I link to. Maybe. Hope CJ will forgive me if I screw up occasionally.

Here is what the left is saying about the comments their people post on Obama's site.

Steve @ 1:

And fourth, nothing prevents conservatives from posting offensive material on liberal blogs, and then reporting their findings.

Amen, brother, that’s exactly what I was thinking. I have little doubt that RWNJs (Right Wing Nut Jobs) post their own hateful crap on Obama’s site (and others) so they could turn around and make an issue of it. Those pathetic creeps have nothing affirmative with which to prop up their own terribly flawed candidate and their vacuous GOP ideological bullshit, so they gotta resort to setting up straw man arguments to distract the public. They just can’t bear to see their treasured ideologies and stupid, narrow worldviews go up in the smoke of W’s miserable failures.

A tiny little bit of doubt would be in order here. Maybe, just maybe, it's not a case of post and grab? Maybe the offensive post has been up there in plain view for weeks or months, which sort of torpedoes the idea that conservatives snuck it in and then screengrabbed it quick before anybody could notice.

There's also the matter of style. How many conservatives are fluent with all the little ways that liberals signal their contempt for conservatives? How many would know that it "rings true" to a liberal, to speak of stupid, narrow worldviews when referring to conservatives.

This sort of corrosive hatred is bad for the country, gentle reader. This sort of readiness to believe the worst of the other side is bad for the country. We are in this country together, and we have enemies whose dream is to hit us with nukes. We need to accept that internal politics is not the only measure of winning and losing.

That ChenZen is still around the Net attacking LGF and throwing under-the-belt blows.
What an ungrateful rat.

I tend to feel affection for most people (I did with Chen), but I'm running out of affection rapidly.

F.U. Chen. Get over it already, damn it!

re: #4 Jetpilot1101

It's because they are enabled by both the MSM/Universities and the tendency of people to be hardwired into not really want to change how they perceive the world, i.e. politics/religion tends to be ingrained in the brain from years/decades of thought patterns and takes near literal (mental anyhow) dynamite for someone to change their minds about it. That's a large part of how the extreme left has crept into and taken over the democrack party over the decades, very much like a frog in the soupwater who doesn't realize or want to know the temperature is changing in a bad way... some leetle froggies will succumb to the heat while a very few will realize it and jump for it... In the obamasama's case though the cook has turned the heat up a bit to much to quickly for many and there are a lot of dems looking around and saying wtf happened to the party etc...
