America Didn't Want Issues

2008-11-12T07:32:00.005-06:00

Okay, let's get something straight about this election. America didn't want issues. Despite as many on the left like to argue, the fact is, the an overwhelming majority of Americans don't understand them to begin with.

Obama's electorate wanted a good looking, articulate lawyer to fill a suit. Sure, they wanted change from the direction this country is in now, but most people don't have a clue as to what or how that is accomplished. If they did, we'd already have all the answers and the market wouldn't be in turmoil. I mean, if the electorate really knew the workings of the market, they'd be self-made Warren Buffets.

Obama's campaign was comprised of rhetoric and catch-phrases. When he/they did speak about issues, he fell flat on his face (see Joe the Plumber, Joe Biden urging us to gird our loins). It was certainly effect enough though. With no experience or a position to stand on, it was like trying to play catch with a handful of sand. And if anyone was lucky enough to pin him down on an issue, they were branded a racist, mean-spirited or ignorant. Meanwhile, the vermin on the left used they're stooges to attack Palin and her family on grounds that had nothing to do with politics and would be consider libelous and slanderous if done to any other American. Obama's never denounced that.

So, folks, if it makes you feel good to tell yourself that Obama won over the voter's on key issues such as hope, change and good-looks, so be it. But much like not being proud of what Obama really stands for and coming out and defending it (socialism) i doubt that anyone will be happy to own up to the fact issues were really tertiary at best.

Palin Thrown Under the Bus - Whigs in Control of the Republican Party

2008-11-07T18:39:00.006-06:00

It wasn't 24 hours since the election was over, and reports (this time more verified than the shots in the dark the Huffington Rag took) of GOP insiders throwing Sarah Palin under the bus started flowing. I'm not an insider, but I really believe the old guard fat cats of the party never really warmed to her and McCain, and thus sponsored such an apathetic campaign.

Hopefully the Republican party will wake up and realize that their establishment, who wouldn't fully accept Palin as one of their own, is disenfranchising many who became Republicans after the Democratic party turned into a party of the fringe. While many of us didn't agree with the big business love fest (although we admit we cannot continuously kill the goose who laid the golden egg), we came to their party because we believed in family values, strong national defense, low taxes and low spending. And, while they have talked a good game over the past ten years, they haven't held up their end of the bargain. Obama didn't do anything magical, the Republicans did things marginally. While he whipped up a fervor among the outright socialist and left-wing extremists in this country, many people simply voted for him because he promised change, and although misplaced, people bought on it.

So, now I say, there are two options, the Republicans can either go back to the stance that worked before, or we as the American public need to abandon the established two-parties of tweedledee and tweedledum. Personally, I sent in my change of registration the next morning to the Constitution Party. I'm not jumping off some band wagon. I just woke up and realized that neither of these two parties give a damn about the American people.

The election is over. I'm not going to go into detail about the socialism and pain this country is going to face, all in the name of change. What does need done though, as many of you have stated, is to hold both parties feet to the fire. Yes, America, we have two choices, the Democratic-Socialist Party and the Republican-Whig party. And as long as that is the case, the American people's wants and needs will never be truly on the agenda of DC.

*AFC Note* I had an unfortunate event occur a few days back which required medical attention, thus I have not been able to post as frequently as normal, or with as much detail and energy as normal. I hope to discuss more about the reform needed in DC in the upcoming days as I go through my recovery. Thank you.

Napalm in the Morning: America's Morning After Pill

2008-11-05T09:31:00.004-06:00

Well folks, if there was ever a reason in this country to administer a mass morning-after pill to this country, it was last night. I can't say I'm stunned by the results of the election. It was pretty apparent early on that the majority of America was more concerned with their perceived pocket book shortages and changing history than they were with defending this country and what it stands for. My hope, and failing, was that I still had faith in the majority of this country.

Now some will say, that is a pretty bitter statement, and your right. But I'm not somebody who is going to all of a sudden start jumping on the bandwagon against my morals and beliefs. The problem as a whole is far more systemic than the fact that Obama won the White House. I'm not sure exactly how I am going to organize this, other than how I feel is what will be said.

First off, I will tip my cap to the Obama campaign. Anyone who can uproot the Juggernaut Clinton machine and raise as much money as they did played the 21st century politics game to a T. While I firmly believe that much of what they did was highly suspicious, the bottom line is, they did it, and while I agree with almost nothing on their agenda, their ability to turn the beast loose in America is something to marvel.

Now, onto John McCain. I have to admit, he wasn't my first choice as far as potential nominees. I really didn't have one, and I think a lot of Republicans had the same issue, and I think that really bit his run in the ass when all was said and done. I was impressed with his defense record and his personal courage and history, while I really admired Mitt Romney's financial background but was highly impressed with Mike Huckabee's social stances and his ability to talk to and identify with people. Lest we forget Rudy Giuliani, who truly did marvels to clean up the city of New York, as a Republican in a heavily liberal city, and was a beacon of American resolve during 9/11. Each had great strengths, but each had great weaknesses. McCain's economic background wasn't very strong, there were questions about Romney's social views, Huckabee was viewed by many as socially too far right-wing (which I personally disagree with), and Giuliani was the opposite socially. In contrast, for the Democrats, it was easy. You either had to choose between left, and lunatic fringe left.

But, back to McCain. As an individual, I gained a ton of respect for him. I had always kind of viewed him as a borderline RINO prior to this election, but I truly feel he did his absolute best to represent the party as a whole. Further, I was amazed in his ability to keep pace on the campaign trail, especially the last 72 hours. Any idiot who said he was too old would be lucky to do the same (7 states in 24 hours). Further, you could tell he was and lives his life in great pain from the torture he endured as a POW. And let me take a quick second to say to all of those pure pieces of human waste, who questioned the legitimacy of his service and made fun of his scars and pain, that you people do not deserve to have a seconds worth of air in this country.

Now here is where I really get heated. I would personally like to meet and slap the campaign mangers of McCain along with the rest of the Republican National Committee. They ran an absolute awful...awful campaign. It was like they weren't even trying. By allowing Obama to go months without seriously being questioned about his relationships with Ayers, Wright, Khalid, Nation of Islam, the Socialist Party, his lack of experience, his radical views growing up etc., they legitimized him as a candidate. I would have painted into a corner before he ever had an opportunity to say "I'm Barack Ob...." and the American public would have finished the sentence for him. They would have known all they needed to know about him before he ever got a chance to get a boot off the ground. And, how the hell the RNC could let senate seat and house seat fall by the wayside and play the "let's just hope they don't take too many this time" game is beyond me.

Now, going back to the Democrat side, not just the campaign but the intelligentsia and the media. I know they really don't care, but I'm sure I'm not alone in this view, but no matter what they do, they have done more the fracture this country than ever before. I truly believe that no matter what they do, the wounds they have inflicted in this race will take generations to heal. The last straw for me was the treatment given to Gov. Sarah Palin and her family. How dare anyone say the vitriolic, hateful, slanderous things they did about her. From making and posting fake pornographic pictures of her on the Internet, to portraying her as a bumbling idiot, they truly have shown that the Democratic party is not the party for women's rights. Its the party for "Some Women's Rights". After 8 years though of attacking Bush, 2 years of patronizing McCain and 6 months of slandering Palin, its a wonder the media didn't create a 80/20 voting split in this country.

So, I've come to a great re-awakening today. We need massive reform in this country, NOW! I'll go much further in depth in shortly, but I will leave you with this: As far as both the Republicans and Democrats go, I say, a pox on both their houses. And, as far as the election goes, maybe Rev. Wright was right. "America's chickens are coming home to roost." We truly will reap what we have sewn in this country, and maybe only then, America will snap out of its lethargy and apathy. The damage though, maybe too far done.

Nov 3, 2008 Polls are Puzzling - Skewed Towards Obama?

2008-11-03T13:19:00.004-06:00

I know a lot of people are becoming suspicious of the polls showing Obama ahead by vast margins. I'm not a statistician or a pollster, so I'm not going to try to analyze the hard numbers. However, I do know some basics about selecting a good representation of the populace.

The first poll is the NBC-Wall Street Journal Poll released today which shows Obama up +8. Here's a few puzzling things about this poll. The first question about the poll is there sampling method. For some strange reason, they only accepted responses from individuals who only had a cell phone and no land line. Any respondents who answered that they had both were terminated from the poll.

1b. Do you have a landline in addition to your cell phone, or is your cell phone the only telephone you have? +

Likely
Voters

Have a landline ................................. - TERMINATE [139]
Cell phone is only telephone............. 100 CONTINUE
Not sure .......................................... - TERMINATE
+ Results shown reflect responses among likely voters.

As you can see, anyone who answered that they had a landline or unsure were terminated from the poll. Now this makes me wonder what type of population target would only have a cell phone. I understand it is becoming more and more popular, however, the pollsters do not share why this is such an important qualifier to participate in their poll.

The second point of confusion is the question dealing with the potential voters level of interest in this election. Basically, the only two criteria that allow you to vote in this poll is either if you rate it a 10 out of 10 or you have already voted.

2. Using a ten-point scale, please tell me how likely you are to vote in the November fourth elections for
president and Congress. If you are certain that you will vote, pick a number closer to "eight," "nine," or
"ten." If it is less likely that you will vote, use a number closer to "one," "two," or "three." You may choose
any number from one to ten. +

Likely
Voters

10, certain to vote ............................. 91 CONTINUE [140-141]
9 ....................................................... -
8 ....................................................... -
7 ....................................................... -
6 ....................................................... -
5 ....................................................... - TERMINATE
4 ....................................................... -
3 ....................................................... -
2 ....................................................... -
1, less likely to vote........................... -
Already voted (VOL) ....................... 9 CONTINUE
Not sure .......................................... - TERMINATE
+ Results shown reflect responses among likely voters.

Now for some reason they are using this response as their only way to determine whether or not someone is a likely voter. Now, I'm far from an expert, but why would someone who only viewed this election as a 9 out of 10 in importance be considered an unlikely voter?

Next on the hit parade is the Marist Poll which shows Obama +9 over McCain. Now this poll really makes me wonder about its validity all together. To me, if you were a pollster who really wanted to claim the validity of your poll, would you describe your respondents as the following:

Nature of the Sample: 830 Americans
This survey was conducted on November 2, 2008. 830 adults 18 years of age or older within the
continental United States were interviewed by telephone. Telephone numbers were selected based
upon a list of telephone exchanges from throughout the nation. The exchanges were selected to
ensure that each region was represented in proportion to its population. The results of the entire
survey are statistically significant at ±3.5%. There are 747 registered voters and 635 likely voters.
The results for these sub-samples are each statistically significant at ±4%. The margin for error
increases for cross-tabulations.

First of all, I'm glad that they sampled 830 Americans. I mean, if the results from Zimbabwe would have showed Obama +9 I would definitely be thinking that Obama could be posed for a landslide victory. But here is the problem with this description. There is none. Who is to say they didn't call San Francisco, New York City, Detroit, and Atlanta to come up with their sample? I mean, that would cover each region of the country right? Second, I don't know how in the hell you can take responses from 830 Americans and determine what nearly 130,000,000 plus potential voters will do. That is a sample of .0000061% of the population. That's roughly equivalent to to asking one person in California how the voted and then calling a race on it as an exit poll.

Next up is the Rasmussen Reports Poll. To see the full sampling method of this poll, you have to buy a subscription the the site, so you have to be a little leery to begin with. Second, Rasmussen admits to setting a goal to weight its polls by seeking out 9.7% more Democrats to responds than Republicans, which is rather unprecedented. There has never been that great of disparity in turnout before and I doubt that this election will be that much different. But hey, it sells subscriptions right?

Gallup is its own animal. They've hedged their bets using three different sampling methods. There final prediction is Obama 55% to McCain 44%. What doesn't make sense here is that third party candidates Bob Barr, Ralph Nader others have combined been attracting anywhere from 3-6% of the vote. So unless Gallup is suggesting that 105% of the electorate is going to vote this year, which is totally possible with ACORN registering more voters in Indianapolis than there are legal voting aged people, there is one red flag against them.

Then Gallup comes up with this gem of doublespeak:

Survey Methods

Results are based on telephone interviews with 3,050 national adults, aged 18 and older, conducted Oct. 31-Nov. 2, 2008. For results based on the total sample of national adults, one can say with 95% confidence that the maximum margin of sampling error is ±2 percentage points.

What the hell does that mean? I'm not exactly sure how you can have a percentage of a percentage. It's kind of like saying there will be a 90% chance of having 20% chance of showers this evening. How am I supposed to read that. Am I supposed to add the 5% uncertainty in their own polls to the 2% admitted margin of error? Is this their way of trying to say, hey, we could be off by 7% but it sounds a lot better on us.

--OR--

Should I multiply the two? Would that mean that they are trying to say that there is .0001 chance they are wrong? Do I carry they one? What about the numerator?

--OR--

Was in Col. Mustard in the Kitchen with the Candlestick?

Okay, then there is the Diageo/Hotline poll. Now if you visit the link provided by Real Clear Politics you get a page that looks like a third graders attempt at building a web page.

Once again, third party candidates aren't even factored into this poll:

The Early Line: Diageo/Hotline Tracking Poll

Obama/Biden 50%
McCain/Palin 45%
Undec 5%

So, as you can see, you either supported Obama, McCain or were Undec (which I'm assuming means undecided but could also be an abbreviation for a new UN agency Obama is proposing, totally funded by the US of course). There is no factoring for the 3-6% of third party votes.

Diageo/Hotline's description of their sample consisted of one louse sentence:

Today's Diageo/Hotline tracking poll, conducted 10/31-11/2 by FD, surveyed 887 LVs and has a margin of error of +/- 3.3%. Party ID Breakdown for the sample is 41%D, 36%R, 18%I.

Now I ask you folks. If you were a student and used that as your sample description in a junior high class, would you get away with it? Probably not. But, apparently its good enough for professional pollsters.

One last thing about this poll which is peculiar is this statement:

Based on an analysis of responses to questions on candidates' images, party ID and demographics, "Refused" responses in the head-to-head question were assigned to Obama, McCain or undec.

Um, so what exactly does that mean? Does that mean if someone responded that they were a registered Democrat and then refused to answer who they were voting for that the vote automatically went to Obama? The poll apparently only asked 3 questions: What party are you, did you vote yet and who will/did you vote for. I mean, if electing a president came down to who had more registered voters in their party, this poll and statement would make a lot more sense. Of course, ACORN has also been using the same philosophy, "stock-watering" the populace with fraudulent voters so pollsters skew and weigh their numbers to unrealistic proportions. I mean, they have to account for the fact that Mickey Mouse will be voting 15 times this year in 8 states and 3 counties in Ohio.

So folks, I'm not a professional by any stretch and I'm sure the Obama-trons will say that 50,000,000 Frenchmen can't be wrong, but there are a lot of fundamental questions about these polls that are accepted for gospel truth. The only thing we can do is make sure we get out and vote tomorrow if you haven't already and make these pollsters eat crow along with the rest of the main-stream media. That is of course if MSNBC doesn't call the race for Obama at 08:01 AM EST.

AFC Endorses McCain. Obama's Platform Plagiarized From Socialist Party USA

2008-11-03T08:52:00.009-06:00

Sen. John McCain is a man who has devoted his life to this country, had the experience to keep America safe and is the one candidate who will not radically change America into a third-world welfare state. It is for this reason, among many others, that The Flying Circus overwhelmingly endorses the McCain/Palin ticket in the 2008 election.

I know many of you out there have been waiting to cast your ballots in baited breath, holding off to see which way you should vote pending AFC's endorsement. On the issues, Barack Obama is flat out scary. His platform not only is radical, it is also unoriginal and plagiarized from the Socialist Party USA candidate Brian Moore's website:

On Iraq:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Stop The War in Iraq and Afghanistan and bring the American troops and reconstruction companies home immediately."

Barack Obama's Platform
"Immediately upon taking office, Obama will give his Secretary of Defense and military commanders a new mission in Iraq: ending the war."

On Health Care:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Implement a national health care system to include comprehensive health, dental and mental health care for all residents, foreign and domestic."

Barack Obama's Platform
"Obama and Biden will require coverage of preventive services, including cancer screenings"

On Defense:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Call for immediate 50% cut in the military budget, with additional 50% over the next 10 years"

Barack Obama's Platform
"Call for the immediate cut of 25% in the defense budget."

On Labor:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Mandate right of employees for access to chose labor union representation to assure fair salaries and benefits"

Barack Obama's Platform
"Obama and Biden will strengthen the ability of workers to organize unions. He will fight for passage of the Employee Free Choice Act."

On Wages:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Initiate a guaranteed income for all American families, working or not, at a level of $35,000 per year per adult (2008 Cost of Living levels)"
Barack Obama's Platform
"Barack Obama and Joe Biden will raise the minimum wage, index it to inflation and increase the Earned Income Tax Credit to make sure that full-time workers earn a living wage that allows them to raise their families and pay for basic needs."

On Abortion:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Support a woman's right to choose in matters of abortion; and oppose all restrictions on access to abortion."
Barack Obama's Platform
"However, he has been a consistent champion of reproductive choice and will make preserving women's rights under Roe v. Wade a priority as President. He opposes any constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court's decision in that case."

On Civil Rights:
Socialist Party USA Platform:
1) end all restrictions in law and work place, marriages and sodomy laws
2) prevent student violence and discrimination in schools and all of society
3) federal ban on all forms of job discrimination, on the basis of race, sexual orientation, gender or economic status
4) oppose English as the only official language
Barack Obama's Platform:
"Obama and Biden will work to overturn the Supreme Court's recent ruling that curtails women’s and racial minorities' ability to challenge pay discrimination. They will also pass the Fair Pay Act to ensure that women receive equal pay for equal work and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity or expression."

Not only has the Obama campaign taken credit for the work of the Socialist Party USA without giving recognition, Obama has also helped to destroy Al Gore's Internet. Obama has paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to have individuals sit behind a computer all day and attack people who do not support Obama and label them as racists or fear mongerers. These Obama-bots, Obama-trons and probable supporters of beastiality have absolutely ruined Yahoo News with their incessant buzzing of bird-cage liners such as the Huffington Post and DailyKos's articles.

The Obama-led left has greatly fractured America to the point where any chance at unity will never happen. His supporters have ensured that this by making this campaign one personal attack after another on McCain, Palin and anyone who isn't a card-carrying member of the Socialist Party.

Therefore, among many reasons, the AFC is throwing its heavy leverage behind the McCain campaign, a move that will surely build enough momentum to defend this great country from the overt Socialists that surround us.

Prevent and Prepare for Post-Election Rioting and 4 Years of Flesh-Eating

2008-11-03T06:07:00.004-06:00

As the election nears, the good folks over at zombiedefense.org have given us yet another good reason to vote Republican this year. Zombiedefense.org is a site committed to preparing man for the impending zombie invasion, however, there site offers many tactics and techniques that also could be applied when dealing with an Obama-tron, especially in a Post-Obama Election Regime or rioting.

Zombolitics: Can Our Leaders Protect Us?
As time flawlessly marches toward the inevitable future (a future strewn with the corpses of the less careful, and ruled by those who can match cleverness with a willingness to eat canned dog food long after others have lost the stomach (or brain) for it), American voters find themselves faced with a critical question of societal import: “With what leadership should I cast my lot?” The staff at zombiedefense.org has prepared the following voting guide to help the thoughtful public make informed decisions about their choice of leadership.

The Democratic Party

The modern American Democratic Party has long symbolized selflessness, compassion, socialism, high taxes, and general queerness. Embracing such leaders as convicted fake war hero John Kerry and ambulance-chasing John Edwards, the Democrats have always erred on the side of pussiness. Such non-confrontational pussiness may be critical when trying to convince a college coed to give you a hand job, but when it comes to cracking shamblor skulls with whatever’s handy, it is in fact a notable weakness – just like Medicare and Social Security.

At a campaign rally in 1982, senior Democrat Ted Kennedy was quoted as saying “Zombies? I’m so fucking drunk I feel like drowning a hooker.” While such a mean streak could be helpful in fueling axe-blows with rage, they become useless when diluted with positions supporting gay marriage and the pro-abortion movement. Current California senator Barbara Boxer recently stated: “I’m not saying that zombies are real. But, if they are, they’re still members of this society, and they deserve the same opportunities to work and live like the rest of us. Or unlive. Whatever they do, we need to raise taxes.”

Despite these obvious character flaws inherent in the base Democratic political philosophy, we must examine their anti-zombie policies for what they’re worth.

The Right to Unlife Act (Zell Miller, D. Georgia, 1999) - Mr. Miller’s bill guaranteed that any zombie (Miller insists on referring to them as “re-animated peoples”) has a right to full civil penalties if injured in a police attack. Such legislation was struck down by the courts in Shamblor Doe vs. Arizona, when even noted feminist Ruth Bader-Ginsburg was forced to comment “that was some fucked-up shit, there” in her decision.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 - The SOA contains a little-known provision stating that the Boy Scouts of America must bear a certain quota of zombie scout leaders, despite the obvious risks to the pre-gay weeblos. Again, this provision was thankfully line-item vetoed by President George W. Bush (or as we at zd.o like to call him, George Z. Bush).

The poorly named acronymic “HOTBIC” (Homosexuals Ought To Be In Charge) Act (Hillary Clinton, D. New York, 2003) - Sponsored by none other than Arkansas’ own New York senator, Hillary Clinton, the HOTBIC act not only mandated homosexual relations for all elected officials, it also featured an unrelated addendum that made it illegal to use a handgun in defense against shamblors “of any race, creed, or ethnicity.” It remains the flagship legislation in the Democrats pro-gay-zombie platform.

The Republican Party

In recent years, with the waning popularity of civil rights, personal freedoms, and a fair and impartial court system, the Republican Party has flexed its political will on behalf of the people of America. Republicans have led the fight against Terrorism (which in turn includes “terror”, and let’s be brutally frank – one can’t have true terror without shamblors), and their increased efforts to tighten our borders against both Canadian zombies (“Maplors”) and Messican zombies (“Somberors”) have created a safer America.

Pennsylvania hero-senator Rick Santorum spoke at a recent “Focus on the Family” event in Scranton. From his speech:

"Every day, I pray for America. I pray for the wealthy families who struggle daily to earn a twelve percent return on their investments. I pray for our soldiers who are constantly emptying clips into shameless heathens who have the audacity to pray to the moon-god Allah. But, most of all, I pray that if this nation should EVER be threatened by zombies, we’ll shoot first and pray later. That’s why I propose curtailing the right to privacy and a ban on cheerleading."

Embattled former house majority leader Tom DeLay, at a $10,000 plate fundraiser, concurred. “I don’t know how they do things in Vermont,” he explained to a cheering crowd, “but in Texas we shoot ‘em." Then he turned the conversation from civil rights to the undead, and a hush fell over the crowd. Monocles twinkled in the candlelight as he continued. “Zombies need to be killed, re-killed, whatever you call it. I don’t think the Founding Fathers intended us to sit on our hands while our children are being eaten. Wait – maybe they did...”

Their legislation and capital expenditures reflect their mission.

The Boeing AXA - Funded through the current administration’s defense budget, this unmanned flying vehicle can decommission a shamblor from over two hundred feet away with its microwave ray cannon.

The “Right to Bear Arms and Remove Zombie Heads” Initiative - Run through Dr. Bill Frist’s office, this series of bills seeks to legalize the use of US Armed Forces Reserves for anti-zombie exercises in the Sonoran Desert. In addition, it looks to legalize private posession of ursine forelimbs.

The “Jews for a Consistent Death” Act - Authored by Republican senator Joe Lieberman, this act seeks to clearly denote any media (music, video, etc.) that contains pro-zombie messages, so that parents can make informed decisions for their children.

The Republican leadership, in both the executive and legislative branches, has consistently created laws that not only protect America from the threats of homosexual infiltration, but against the looming threat of shamblific deterioration. The research staff at zd.o suggests that a well-informed voter will consider the risks of voting in people who don't like to shoot other people. zd.o thinks that America's post-necropalyptic future will be best served by electing leaders without an ability to empathize and a propensity for violence.

2008-11-02T13:49:00.006-06:00

One thing I haven't been able to get a handle on this election is the fact that despite the numerous negative and sometimes dangerous associations that Barrack Obama has tied to him, many either aren't paying attention or just don't care.

It used to be, "Tell me who your friends are, and I'll tell you what kind of person you are." The Obama camp has done an excellent job of deflecting, spinning and denying Obama's long ties with former felons, racists preachers, and terrorist supporters. Thus, it is up to us to make the connection. Now of course, once one begins to piece together the facts that Obama has been surrounded by many people we would never be caught dead with, one is accused of either being a racist or inspiring fear, but folks, their IS a lot to be afraid of.

Its kind of like telling someone "Hey, stop spreading fear by telling your kids not to play with matches." Or, "The fact that we're trying to convert this country to a Socialist regime has nothing to do with the issues." Yeah, Obama has the best firemen in this business if people are buying off on that.

Obviously by now, if you know about Obama's Ayers relationship, the Rezko sweetheart property deal, the Rev. Wright Church of Hate, the Obama-Khalid-PLO connection, and still are a stooge for the left, their is no helping you. I'll come out and say it. You fall into one of two categories: You truly hate what this country and everything it stands for or you want a free ride through life.

I'm not really sorry if that offends anyone, but that is the naked truth. But there are folks out there who truly are undecided at this stage in the election. You know, in some ways as far as mental health and overall well-being is concerned, they probably are better off for it if its a case of them just not paying attention for the past two years. So to those people, I say to you, despite the fact that the Obama camp has been able to shrug off four or five very incriminating relationships that would get any normal person either investigated by the FBI or imprisoned, just think about what skeletons are yet to come out of the closet?

And, for that matter, a leopard doesn't change its spots. For Obama to spend a life time surrounded by such questionably charectered people, shows serious poor judgement on his behalf. Are you ready for him to do the same in the White House?

People have argued with me "Why can't you find anything good to say about Obama?" Well, my reply is, there really isn't anything good to say about him. What we do know about him is downright scary. His record in the Senate is virtually non-existent because he was there for little over a year before he started campaigning for the White House. Further, anytime anyone tries to investigate into his background they find more and more incriminating information about him. Then, when they come forward with it, they are accused of being a racist or spreading fear. I'll say again, sometimes it pays off to be a little fearful of things (IE petting a rattlesnake, trusting a child molester to babysit your kids etc).

So folks, the next time you hear someone accusing a person critical of Obama's poorly thought out plans, Socialist ideologies and criminal relations, ask them if they thought their parents were inciting fear for making them look both ways before crossing the street. Then see what kind of reaction you get.

The Truth about the McCain-Palin Health Care Plan

2008-11-01T01:20:00.002-05:00

Barack Obama And Joe Biden Have Consistently Lied To Americans About John McCain's Plan. Their claims have failed every fact-check - from CBS to the Washington Post. John McCain is not going to raise taxes on middle class families. Barack Obama and Joe Biden are the only ones in this race that plan to raise taxes.

OBAMA FICTION
John McCain Will Tax Health Care Benefits For The First Time And Will Be the Largest Middle Class Tax Increase In History.
THE FACTS
This Obama charge is a blatant mischaracterization of the McCain Health Plan. It only focuses on the fact that the value of the employer provided insurance will now show up as additional income for the employees – what he fails to mention – is that John McCain’s generous refundable tax credit ($5,000 for families and $2,500 for individuals) will not only shield millions of families from a tax increase but will actually give them MORE dollars to invest in their health care needs.
The McCain Plan DOES NOT tax:
Premiums paid by families and individuals

Employers for providing health care coverage

Medical expenses like the cost of a procedure or medication

Insurance claims
Approach Supported By Obama’s Own Advisor: This is an approach supported by Barack Obama's own Senior Economic Advisor Jason Furman who wrote that "we could scrap the current deduction altogether and replace it with progressive tax credits that, together with other changes, would ensure that every American has affordable health insurance."

Better Than "Members of Congress": Under the McCain Plan, your employer can provide you with health insurance as good as a "Member of Congress" (approximately $12,000), and you would pay no more in taxes – regardless of your tax bracket. In fact, you would have additional money left over from the McCain tax credit to put in a health savings account.

Income Tax Liability

$1,200 ($12,000 x 10%)
$5,000
+$3,800
15% Bracket ($15,650 - $63,700)
$1,800 ($12,000 x 15%)

+$3,200
25% Bracket ($63,700 - $128,500)

+$1,640
33% Bracket ($195,850 - $349,700)
$3,960 ($12,000 x 33%)

+$1,040
35% Bracket ($349,700 and Over)
$4,200 ($12,000 x 35%)
$5,000
+$800

Where Is The Middle-Class "Tax Increase"? If you or your family is in the 28% bracket, with an income of $180,000, you could receive employer provided health insurance even better than a Member of Congress, with a cost of almost $18,000, with no increase in taxes. Even the liberal leaning Tax Policy Center, agrees that the McCain proposals will result in a "net tax benefit" of more than $1,200 for an average tax payer. A recent Lewin Group study estimated savings of more than $1,400 per American family – almost three times the savings as under the Obama plan.

OBAMA FICTION
The McCain Plan Will Reduce Medicare Spending By Billions By “Cutting Benefits, Eligibility or Both.”
THE FACTS
John McCain believes that we can achieve savings in Medicare without reducing benefits or eligibility. He has proposed common-sense reforms that will not only put Medicare on a path of financial stability but ensure access to quality care for millions of Americans. Some of the policies proposed by the McCain plan include:
Promote payment reform that allows us to move away from the current fragmented and volume-based service to a system which rewards coordinated and quality focused care.

Eliminate Medicare fraud and abuse to ensure that nearly $60 billion a year, almost 10 percent of total Medicare spending, that goes to line the pocket of criminals instead of providing quality care for seniors.

Ensure that drug premiums for the wealthiest Americans are not being subsidized by the middle class.

Promote a new generation of treatment models that better manage chronic care conditions while rewarding prevention and wellness.

Greater use of Health IT and medical homes to promote greater co-ordination of care.

Reduce drug costs by allowing greater use of generics (including bio-generics).
The Obama Spin: If some of the proposals above sound familiar to Senator Obama’s proposals including – better managing chronic care diseases, greater use of health IT, promoting prevention and greater use of generic drugs - because they are. Only the liberal media and the Obama campaign would characterize similar proposals as “savings” in the their plan and “cutting benefits, eligibility or both” in the McCain plan.

OBAMA FICTION
John McCain Will Tax Health Care Benefits For The First Time And Send The Money Straight To The Insurance Companies.
THE FACTS
Another desperate attack by the Obama campaign. Here is what they purposefully fail to mention – the credit goes to the insurance company that the American family chooses to get coverage from, anywhere in the nation. The power of choice lies with the family – not government bureaucrats or insurance companies.
Putting Families In Charge: Under the McCain Plan American families will not only decide where the tax credit should be directed for their coverage needs but any additional money left over after purchasing coverage will be controlled by the family in a portable health savings account. Ridiculing this line of strange attack, The Associated Press stated, "Of course it would, because it's meant to pay for insurance. That's like saying money for a car loan will go straight to the car dealer."

Obama Criticizing His Own Approach: Most importantly, Senator Obama is criticizing an approach that is used by his own HOPE credits – where tax payer money simply goes from the federal government to colleges.

OBAMA FICTION
Americans With Pre-Existing Condition Under The McCain Plan Will Not Find Coverage.

THE FACTS
John McCain believes that no American should be denied access to quality and affordable coverage simply because of a pre-existing condition. As President, John McCain will work with governors to develop a best practice model that states can follow – a Guaranteed Access Plan or GAP – that would reflect the best experience of the states to ensure these patients have access to health coverage. There would be reasonable limits on premiums, and assistance would be available for Americans below a certain income level.

OBAMA FICTION
The McCain Health Plan Will Damage Employer Provided Insurance For Millions of Americans.
THE FACTS
The McCain health plan builds on the employer-based system. Employers will have the same incentive to provide health insurance as they do today since they will continue to deduct the cost of health insurance they provide to employees.
Millions With Employer Coverage Will Do Better Under The McCain Plan: Millions of American families with employer sponsored coverage in all tax brackets with the same coverage as a "Members of Congress" will now come out ahead with additional funds going into a portable health savings account. Importantly, younger and healthier employees with the McCain health care tax credit will have a bigger incentive to stay with the employers. For example, a 25-year-old employee in the 25 percent tax bracket with a $2,500 tax credit could either purchase a policy in the individual market for the same amount or stay with his employer plan and receive a $5,000 policy with an additional $1,250 to invest in a portable health savings account. Why would people choose fewer benefits for more money?
So Why Is Barack Obama Hiding Details About His Plan?
1. Barack Obama's Plan Will Harm Employer Coverage
The Obama plan includes a $179 billion a year employer mandate. The mandate requires employers to either provide "meaningful" coverage or pay a tax towards the government plan. Faced with tough economic conditions and rising health costs this creates a clear incentive for employers to drop coverage and move families into the new government plan. A Lewin Group study which examined a similar employer mandate combined with a national plan, like the Obama plan, concluded that almost 52 million individuals would lose their private employer coverage. To maintain their competitive edge, others employers will follow - spelling the demise of the employer coverage system.

2. Barack Obama's Plan Continues The Push Toward Government-Run Healthcare
The Obama plan will create a brand new government-run health plan at the cost of $243 billion a year – a financial burden of more than $3,000 a year on American families.

Barack Obama's Plan Will Damage Private Coverage
The government-run plan will have a clear advantage over private insurance since it will be subsidized by American taxpayers. A recent analysis of both plans by the nonpartisan CATO Institute concluded that the Obama government-run plan will be able to "keep its premiums artificially low…since it can turn to the U.S. Treasury to cover any shortfalls" resulting in "undercutting the private market." According to Wall Street Journal, the goal of the Obama plan "…like HillaryCare in the 1990s, is to displace current private coverage and switch people to the default government option."

Breaking News: Richardson defines Obama's Tax Limit as $120,000 for Middle Class

2008-10-31T15:03:00.002-05:00

How low can it go? I'm telling you It is going to be down to $42,000 soon. First it was Obama saying under $250,000, then Obama says $200,000. Next Biden says the middle class ends at $150,000.

Well, guess what, Obama supporter and Gov. Bill Richardson is easing us all into the socialist's high-tax agenda stating that middle class is now at $120,000 - the new threshold where Obama will increase taxes.

Hold onto you wallet folks. Hear Richardson's comments below.

DRUDGE REPORT: SKEPTICAL REPORTERS TOSSED OFF OBAMA PLANE

2008-10-31T09:18:00.002-05:00

So much for Free Speech. Obama has booted the media in which he has had a love affair with for the past 2 years. The American Public better believe that the same is going to happen to them. You can't pet a friendly rattlesnake and not expect to get bit.

ALL 3 ENDORSED MCCAIN **Exclusive** The Obama campaign has decided to heave out three newspapers from its plane for the final days of its blitz across battleground states -- and all three endorsed Sen. John McCain for president! The NY POST, WASHINGTON TIMES and DALLAS MORNING NEWS have all been told to move out by Sunday to make room for network bigwigs -- and possibly for the inclusion of reporters from two black magazines, ESSENCE and JET, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. Despite pleas from top editors of the three newspapers that have covered the campaign for months at extraordinary cost, the Obama campaign says their reporters -- and possibly others -- will have to vacate their coveted seats so more power players can document the final days of Sen. Barack Obama's historic campaign to become the first black American president. MORE Some told the DRUDGE REPORT that the reporters are being ousted to bring on documentary film-makers to record the final days; others expect to see on board more sympathetic members of the media, including the NY TIMES' Maureen Dowd, who once complained that she was barred from McCain's Straight Talk Express airplane. After a week of quiet but desperate behind-the-scenes negotiations, the reporters of the three papers heard last night that they were definitely off for the final swing. They are already planning how to cover the final days by flying commercial or driving from event to event. Developing...

Napalm in the Morning: Obama Insider Leaks Campaigns Tactics for Suppressing Republican Votes

2008-10-31T07:14:00.007-05:00

I think I've finally found it. Seriously.

For the last few months, I've really had a nagging feeling that something is just not right. I already knew about the media bias and the left's love affair with Obama, but the numbers just weren't adding up. Of the people I interact with on a daily basis, very few are actual Obama supporters. I ask other people, have you noticed much support where you live? And many say, "Not nearly as much as when Kerry and Gore ran on 04 and 00."

Well, folks, I was on AJ Strata's Strata-sphere blog last evening, a great site that I have recently begun to grow fond of for his ability to interpolate the skewering of the polls and I found a very interesting post in the comments page of one of his posts. It was sent from another site from an anonymous source from inside the Obama campaign. Now, obviously, as it goes with anonymous sources, you have to have a little bit of skepticism, however, if you have been paying attention to this race, especially a little too much like I have, you see that their message seems to make way too much sense.

If you've ever wondered why pro-Obama articles ruled Yahoo Buzz, Digg and other social bookmarking sites, or why moderate and balanced articles were often buried, look no further. I called this a few months back in my post "Liberal Smears Rule the Net." People, believe me when I say this. The staged support for Obama on the net is not an indicator of some sort of overwhelming support nation wide. It is an attempt, as stated below to frustrate and suppress Republican and Independent voters from voting for McCain.

The Obama camp has literally thousands of campaign workers hired to sit on a computer all day, comb the net for conservative blogs and posts and spam, attack or flame them until the article or site is destroyed. So much for free speech, right?

The same goes for polls. What's worse is that the pollsters are falling for it. Here's what happens. ACORN and other agencies go out and register hundreds of thousands of fraudulent applications to vote. Pollsters see that there is a huge increase in registered Democrats in a state or precinct and begin to "tweak" their numbers to predict the outcome of the election based on such. But folks, here's what has been happening: When pollsters call respondents, McCain has actually been winning most of the polls. How is that you say?

Well, when Obama gets a vote, it doesn't get counted as one vote in the polls. It gets counted as anywhere from 1.01 to 1.5. The pollsters believe that by inflating the responses from Obama supporters to match the rise in registration (many fraudulent) that their numbers will be more accurate. So in reality, often times respondents end up choosing McCain 55% to 45% yet when they apply their formulas, the results end up swinging Obama ahead by 4-5%.

This is exactly what the Obama camp hoped would happen. They know that not many people are going to actually going to be able to show and and show and ID and say "Hey, I'm Mickey Mouse and want to vote today." Well, some people might, but that's not the whole goal of the ACORN Fraudulent voter drives. The goal is to get the pollsters to apply their formulas and create the "bandwagon effect" for swing and Independent voters and to get Republican McCain supporters to stay home on election day.

I truly believe that McCain is really up by 4%. The Obama camp knew this from the beginning of their internal polls. Their whole hope is to erase that 4% through getting McCain supporters to stay home and feel as if the race was already won by Obama. This is truly why it is critical that those who support McCain get out and vote and get others to do the same. They want you to think its already sewn up.

And as we've seen from overseas ballot and Florida exit polling, McCain is turning is actually in the lead, despite having a a decisively higher amount of Democrats voting than Republicans.

Below is the post, and I hope you are able to see where the Obama camp is coming from and help spread the word. Now, I just have to sit back and get ready for the trolls to invade the Circus. Bring it on baby.

Ok, I want to clear my conscious a little. Hopefully you could make a blog post to help some fellow Clinton supporters out.

I work for a campaign and can’t wait for this week to be over.

I was doing it for a job. I was not a fan of any candidate but over time grew to love HRC.

The internal campaign idea is to twist, distort, humiliate and finally dispirit you.

We pay people and organize people to go to all the online sites and “play the part of a Clinton or McCain supporter who just switched our support for Obama”

We do this to stifle your motivation and to destroy your confidence.

We did this the whole primary and it worked.

Sprinkle in mass vote confusion and it becomes bewildering. Most people lose patience and just give up on their support of a candidate and decide to just block out TV, news, websites, etc.

This surprisingly has had a huge suppressing movement and vote turnout issues.

Next, we infiltrate all the blogs and all the YouTube videos and overwhelm the voting, the comments, etc. All to continue this appearance of overwhelming world support.

People makes posts to the effect that the world has “gone mad”

That's the intention. To make you feel stressed and crazy and feel like the world is ending.

We have also had quite a hand in skewing many many polls, some we couldn’t control as much as we would have liked. But many we have spoiled over. Just enough to make real clear politics look scary to a McCain supporter. Its worked, although the goal was to appear 13-15 points ahead.

see, the results have been working. People tend to support a winner, go with the flow, become “sheeple”

The polls are roughly 3-5 points in favor of Barack. That's due to our inflation of the polls and pulling in the sheeple.

Our donors, are the same people who finance the MSM. Their interests are tied, Barack then tends to come across as Teflon. Nothing sticks. And trust, there were meetings with Fox news. The goal was to blunt them as much as possible. Watch Bill Oreilly he has become much more diplomatic and “fair and balanced” and soft. Its because he wants to retain the #1 spot on cable news and to do that he has to have access to the Obama campaign and we worked hard at stringing him a long and keeping him soft for an interview swap. It worked and now he is anticipating more access. So he is playing it still soft.

This is why nothing sticks.

The operation is massive, the goal is to paint a picture that is that of a winner, regardless of the results.

There is no true inauguration draft or true grant park construction going on. There will be a party, but we are boasting beyond the truth to make it seem like the election is wrapped up.

Our goal is to continue to make you lose your moral. We worked hard at persuasion and paying off and timing and playing the right political numbers to get key republican endorsements to make it seem even more like it was over and the world was coming to an end for you all.

There is a huge staff of people working around the clock, watching every site, blogs, etc. We flood these sites. We have had a goal to overwhelm.

The truth is here. I could go on and on, but you get the picture.

I am saying this because I know HRC was better for the country, and now realize this. I was too late by the time I connected to her. To me Barack was just a cool young dude that seemed like a star. I didn’t know him or his policies, but now I understand more than I care to and I realize his interests are more for him, and the DNC and all working like puppets with dean. I always thought a president wanted the better good for the country. The end result I see is everyone dependent on the government, this means more and more people voting for the DNC. This means the future is forever altered. I don’t see this as America, so I am now supporting John McCain.

Sarah Palin is a huge threat, and our campaign has feared her like you can’t imagine. If it seems unfair how she has been treated, well its because she has had a team working round the clock to make her look like a fool.

this is a big conspiracy and I am so shocked that its not realized.

We released a little blurb the other day that the Obama campaign was already working on reelection and now putting our efforts towards 2012. This was to make it seem like it was above us to continue caring about 2008. Trust me, its a lie. David is very smart, but its a sticky ugly not very truthful kind of intelligence.

Its not over yet, but I think the machine is working. And its a hill to climb.

I will be quitting my post on Nov 5th and my vote will be for John McCain. Fortunately, my position has been a marketing position and I don’t feel I had any part of anything I would feel guilty for. But I look forward to getting out of this as the negativity and environment upsets me.

I wish you all well, and good luck.

PS my name is not really Sarah. but I am a female and I understand your plight.

I don’t know how true this thing is but it is interesting and some of the things said here have happened.

Credit Card Payment Expert Explains the Depths of Obama's Fraud

2008-10-30T20:55:00.004-05:00

Courtesy of Ace of Spades

(Original Posting Here)

It's amazing to me that I can get experts in the field composing essays to me, but the MSM can't manage to find a single expert to give a quote about this.

Beyond the first paragraph, he recounts his own easy-peasy false-name donation to Obama. That's old stuff you know about. I'm leaving it in because I think this guy wants a unified essay.

After he establishes his bona fides, skip to the bolded asterisk for newer stuff.

Since the media is having such a terribly difficult time of finding experts like this, I can offer his phone number to you to talk to him, on the off-chance you're interested. (And assuming he gives the okay, which presumably he would.)

Because many of our colleagues in the media have failed to investigate the shenanigans of the Obama Campaign, I have taken upon myself to uncover some improprieties. One that has troubled me greatly is Obama's very relaxed donation policies.
I have over 8 years experience working in the payment services industry. By
taking a closer look at Obama's online donation site, I have noticed that
his team has left the door wide open for credit card fraud by not putting in
the security measures to ensure full visa/mastercard authorization
compliance. This is outright irresponsible behavior on the part of Obama's
team and in direct violation of their agreement with Visa/Mastercard.
I did a test on his site. Acting as Joe Stalin, I went onto the Obama site
and donated $5.00. I used false information, address: 100 Red Square,
telephone number 323-666-1953, zip code 10001, Employer: Kremlin
Occupation: Dictator. I did use my valid credit card numbers and expiration
date. The typical security measures, Address Verification System and the
Card Validation Code are not present on the Obama site. So there is nothing
in place to verify who I am. (Please see attachment. [I have his attachment. I see no point in putting it up; we all know Obama's site allows this -- ace.]) I clicked submit. The transaction went through.
Then I went to McCain's site, and entered in the same information. Joe
Stalin. $5.00. As you can see, my donation was rejected for errors.
* What's the big deal? Obama has left the door open for anyone to run prepaid cards and foreign credit cards without proper screening. In addition, it is easy to run multi-transactions on the same card but under different aliases. In other words, an organization like Move On.org could run tens of thousands of transactions for millions of dollars using essentially cards belonging to only handful of very large liberal donors like George Soros, Peter Lewis and Eric Schmidt.
In addition, Obama's site violates his agreement with Visa/Mastercard. Visa Mastercard regulations require each credit card acceptor to "obtain the 3 digit Card Validation Code [CVV2 found on the back of your credit card. 4 digits for American Express Cards] and submit this code with all authorization requests with respect to transactions where the card is not present..." [cite:] Visa/Master Program Guide.
(Please see attachment or go to Obama's site. You will notice that Obama's donation site does not have this code requirement, which is in direct violation of Visa/Mastercard regulations.)
Speculations as to why?
Many foreign credit cards do not have CVV2 codes. Requiring such codes would limit foreign donations.
Secondly, disabling the security allows would be credit card thieves to
"ping" numbers till they get a hit. In other words, a crook could simply
type in random numbers until he found one sequence that worked in some
fashion. That could give a thief a starting point for committing credit-card fraud. If all they had to do was type nonsense values for names and addresses, such as Doodad Pro, they could quickly determine which numbers were valid - and they could probably program bots to do that kind of work.
[I consider this latter point a minor concern, given the fact that most fraudulent donors are willing coconspirators, not credit card thieves. However, it is interesting that Obama invites this sort of fraud, and doesn't take the most elemental step to eliminate it -- indeed, he is in direct violation of Visa/Master Card rules in failing to ask for this code. Why? Because he wants foreign donations, and he's willing to facilitate the occasional credit-card thief to get them. -- ace.]
No Address Verification System (AVS)
The Value of AVS from a credit card exper: I have over 30 years of
experience in investigating Credit Card Fraud and I can tell you, which you
may or may not know, that the merchant acquirer that is conducting the
collection of credit / debit card for the Obama campaign are responsible for
the actions to be taken regarding the Address Verification System responses.
The value of the AVS system is that the issuer of the card being used
provides back to the merchant acquirer a response based upon the information
provided during the authorization process. This response indicates to the
merchant acquirer if the card information was validated as to ownership of the account. It is the merchant acquirer that determines what to do when
the authorization response is received. In most cases the transaction that
comes back with any negative meaning is denied. However, if the merchant acquirer has adjusted their system to accept any response as acceptable the transaction would be completed.
The value of the AVS system is to deny Card Not Present transactions (CNP)
which are suspicious. This protects the merchant against charge backs for
bad transactions. What is interesting to me is that the merchant acquirer
has knowingly violated a basic CNP fraud prevention technique to accommodate a merchant (Obama Campaign). I think that both the Associations (VISA & MasterCard) would be highly interested in looking at the merchant acquirer that was processing these transactions. The value of ignoring the AVS
responses is that multiple invalid transactions may be made without fear of being rejected by the authorization systems. This means that the real owner
of the credit card account is willing to allow multiple transactions to be made on the account using different names and addresses that under normal conditions would be denied. The merchant acquirer has a complete listing of all transactions done and it would be very interesting to see how many transactions were conducted on the same account number using different names. I would think that this would be a Federal violation under the current campaign funding laws.
I hope you will take this inquiry seriously. I want a fair election. I do
not want either side to STEAL the election literally. Obama's tactics have
gone too far in my opinion. McCain is doing the honorable thing on his site
and playing by the rules. Obama is in clear violation of the rules. Is
this change we can believe in?

Name withheld, unless he tells me to print it. Helen Jones-Kelley may deem him to have stepped into the public light.

So I'll call him Modus Operandi.

TD Blog: Exit Poll of Americans in Israel: Lanslide for McCain

2008-10-30T17:51:00.002-05:00

Original Story Posted at TD Blog

October 30, 2008 by texasdarlin

Jewish Backlash: 76% voted for McCain-Palin!

PUMA Backlash: 46% crossed party lines!

This report from NRO could be the first serious indicator of a backlash from Jewish Democrats against Barack Obama.

Within the last hour, the first exit poll of 817 Americans in Israel, who attended U.S. election voting events in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv on Tuesday evening to vote by absentee ballot, has been released.

A startling 76 percent of those polled said that they had voted for John McCain. This contrasts sharply with pre-election polls of American Jews in the U.S., which indicate a strong preference for Obama.

The exit poll findings of American voters in Israel are all the more surprising because less than one in four were registered Republicans, and 46% of registered Democrats living in Israel said they had crossed party lines to vote McCain. By contrast, the Republican crossover to Obama was minimal – just 2%.

The votes are significant as almost half of the 42,000 registered U.S. voters living in Israel come from key swing states including Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

In the 2000 and 2004 elections, Israel had the third-largest group of American voters abroad, after Canada and Britain.

The exit poll was commissioned by Votefromisrael.org, an independent, non-partisan organization dedicated to promoting voter registration and participation amongst American citizens living in Israel.

Interesting…these Jewish Americans voted just as the story about Barack Obama and Rashid Khalidi was hitting the mainstream media outlets on Tuesday. I would expect that story to continue to fuel a backlash among Jews residing in the US, as Election Day next Tuesday approaches.

Angry Murtha Confronts Bloomberg Reporter

2008-10-30T09:26:00.002-05:00

Bloomberg.com News is reporting in an article today that Rep. John Murtha had some choice words when asked about his comments recently that his constituents were "racist" for not supporting Obama.

Asked about his comments yesterday, Murtha said: ``Don't write that story -- you just write what I'm telling you.

``What are the issues? Jobs. The issue is the privatization of Social Security, the issue is health care,'' he said. ``I don't want to be distracted.'' Pennsylvania's unemployment rate was 5.7 percent in September, up from 4.4 percent at the end of 2004.

Don't want to be distracted by the rise in unemployment in your district? Murtha, Nancy Pelosi's biggest ally in Washington, is really showing how out of touch he is with his own district.

Anti-White Graffiti Left at Mellon Arena in Pittsburgh after Obama Rally

Below are two pictures that were sent to me by a source who works for Mellon Arena from after the Obama rally from October 27, 2008. These pictures are very disturbing considering it is the Obama camp who has accused McCain and his followers of being racist.

Hillbuzz: "John McCain will win Pennsylvania."

2008-10-30T02:01:00.001-05:00

Tonight we spoke with a friend from Hillary Clinton’s campaign who is now working for McCain/Palin — and is specifically working with Democrats for McCain in Pennsylvania. We worked with her in Texas, Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania for Hillary and have spent many LONG hours with her in the trenches in all of those states. She’s smart, doesn’t BS, and never lies.

She says the same thing we do: John McCain will win Pennsylvania.

On November 4th, the news networks are going to be spinning and sputtering and playing catchup, but everything we see on the ground in PA is what we saw during the primaries: Obama has no shot of winning the Keystone State.

Here is specifically what we talked about tonight: never in any of our careers have any of us ever seen members of one party switching sides and voting for the other party as we see in this election with Democrats for McCain. There has never been anything like it. Not even the “Reagan Democrats” who voted for Reagan over Carter, for the simple fact that these “Reagan Democrats” weren’t identified and labeled until AFTER the election.

No, Democrats for McCain are real, are voting for McCain right now, and are open and organized, as well as self-identifying. Lynn Rothschild might be our poster gal, as one of the most prominent of our ranks, but it’s telling that everyone from Team Hillary that we know now works for McCain. ALL OF US. Whether they are open about it, like we are, or are working quietly behind the scenes, we can’t think of a single person we worked with on a daily basis for Hillary who is now working on behalf of Obama.

We all truly believe that John McCain will work more closely with Hillary Clinton in the Senate and make it a priority to team up with her on legislation than Obama ever would. We also believe Obama winning this election means his supporters would actively seek to eliminate all Clinton loyalists from the Democratic Party, to consolidate his power base and purge anyone who is not 100% loyal to him. For obvious reasons, those of us loyal to the Clintons will not let that happen without a fight.

But, this is all talking about leadership, and those of us who have invested two years of our lives in all of this — and have, in all honesty, spent every cent we had on this campaign. What about the regular voters?

Union members repeatedly tell all of us that they are lying to pollsters because the unions have been polling these people — and the unions will threaten people’s jobs if they don’t tow the union line. So, the people lie when asked whom they are supporting. But, the unions can’t control who they vote for on Election Day. And that’s when things are going to get interesting.

We do not believe Obama will carry Pittsburgh or Harrisburg in PA. He’ll win Philly, but not by the large margin he needs to take the state. You’ve heard Governor Ed Rendell is “worried” about Obama’s chances in Pennsylvania. That is an understatement. Obama will lose a state that hasn’t gone red in generations.

What’s happening here that’s not being reported is that “Reagan Democrats” who vote Republican whenever they feel that Democrats are out of touch, socialist, or too liberal are voting for McCain…and these people are being joined by PUMAs, DeMcCrats for McCain, Hillocrats, whatever you want to call them, who don’t like or trust Obama and who believe McCain/Palin would address the wants and needs of centrist Democrats much better than Obama ever would.

We personally believe this here at HillBuzz. That’s why we are doing this. We do not believe Obama will put the best interests of Americans first — instead, Obama will do what is best for Obama, the way he has always done. We do not trust this man or his socialist Kool-Aid and want no part of him.

In Pennsylvania, we are not alone.

The same people who ran the board for us in the primary — who assured us daily that the polls the media was pushing were wrong in claiming Obama would beat Clinton in PA — tell us on a daily basis that McCain is going to win Pennsylvania. There’s a damn good chance this won’t even be close, if what people are seeing on the ground right now holds, and is indicative of the whole state.

DEMOCRATS are staffing McCain offices across the state. DEMOCRATS are phone banking and canvassing for McCain. DEMOCRATS are raising large sums to fund this last week of campaigning.

DEMOCRATS.

This has NEVER happened before — and the media is ignoring it. The media consistently claims that Obama enjoys the support of 85% of Democrats, versus only 80% of Republicans who supposedly are supporting McCain. We call BS on all of this — we’d say 90% of Republicans are supporting McCain, and 65-70% of Democrats are actually supporting Obama. At least that’s the case in Pennsylvania, and in Ohio too. Our mission this next week is to reach out to every Democrat we can and let them know it’s okay to vote Republican this year — because the Republican is the better choice.

There are two things Hillary Clinton and John McCain have in common that we’re thinking about right now: (1) both love America more than anything and truly want what’s best for the country, and not themselves and (2) Clinton has a framed photo of McCain in her office, while McCain has a similar photo of Clinton in his.

Clinton and McCain are friends for a reason — and we know they will work well together these next four years. We’re going to face some tough challenges in McCain’s administration, and we sincerely do pledge to all Republicans reading this that the bipartisan spirit we’ve fostered during this campaign working together with Republicans to elect McCain will continue in these next 4 years, because America needs us working together.

We are all Americans right now — working together to stop a socialist from becoming president and taking all of us down a very dangerous path. Hillary’s Army is strong and mobilized, and is working its hard out for McCain/Palin. If you Republicans can match our enthusiasm and dedication, we will win this, and not just in Ohio and Pennsylvania, but all across the country.

We have the potential to make this a crippling loss not just for Obama, but for the far-left liberal wing of the Democratic party and the liberal elite media itself. We have the potential to wipe all of these kooks and loons off the political landscape with a loud, resounding loss for all of them on November 4th.

What we have learned about the state of Pennsylvania tells us our continued efforts are paying off — and that we just need to stay focused and keep working hard the next 7 days to win this for McCain/Palin and, in all honesty, win this for AMERICA too.

It’s an honor to be in this fight with all of you — if we work hard, we will indeed win.

Interesting Finds at HillaryClintonForum.net: They're Pulling for McCain

2008-10-29T17:36:00.005-05:00

Well, I just did a quick search around the net to see where my inbound visits were coming from and I came across a site called hillaryclintonforum.net. Naturally, the inquisitive person that I am, I just had to check it out and how my page was referenced there.

Well, first off, the reference to my page was about Rep. Murtha's comments about how racist his constituents were.

Here is where the surprises begin. First, almost all of the posters agreed that Murtha need to go. But, while that is all well and nice, I was intrigued to see how the posters felt about Obama. I mean, after all, isn't the big wigs at the Democrat party saying that they are more unified than ever? Not the case. In fact, the party seems to be breaking strong towards the McCain side, and many agree that they believe the polls are incredibly incorrect.

Below are a few quotes I found from the site:

"Is everyone beginning to notice that whenever Obama starts tanking in the polls and they all begin to show the first signs of panic, he always "magically" rebounds literally overnight?"
"Oh, and has anyone noticed that Obama's lead in the RCP average has been cut in half in the past week? I'm not worried. At all."
"I couldn`t have said it any better myself! I hope the McCain camp makes an ad out of what Biden said and it runs until election day all over the country. I already know of at least 4 bots here in NE OH. who woke up after Biden`s comments and are now going to vote for McCain!"
"Where have I seen these numbers before?

Oh yeah, replace McCain with Clinton and transport in time to right before the Ohio and Pennsylvania primaries. Hahaha! Isn't it justin credible that Obama lost both of those by 9-10 points?

Those undecideds and that Bradley effect are rough, aren't they BHO?

Incredible that the Democratic nominee isn't up by 15 to 20 points across the board in this political climate. Justin credible."

Now this isn't some tiny site either. It is an incredibly active board with over 5,500 members from across the country, many of whom are incredible active in politics in their area and are excellent barometers for what the real climate is on the ground for moderate and blue-collar democrats.

The cards are starting to fall into place folks. It was only a matter of time before the biased polls and media mind control started to fall apart.
