trembling in our boots? I think not. While this is, indeed, an absolutely ridiculous unconstitutional way to face a political opponent, we won't be quiet.
And dear sheriffs and prosecutors of Missouri, as a law abiding, police-supporting citizen of our state, I dare you to tell me what is the truth and what is not in this campaign! Don't you have some REAL crime to worry about? (How about meth labs, deadbeat dads, and thousands of catalytic converters being chopped off for scrap?) |

What, there's a meltdown going on in the American economy and all you can think to talk about is this trivial little sidestep? I'm sure the voters know a hiccup in the democratic process when they see it, and if this is such a big deal, the local populace will set things right.
In the meantime, yeah, Barack Obama is NOT a Muslim, and, yeah, he WILL cut taxes on those who make under $250,000 a year. Are you saying these are lies?
It may or may not be criminal to lie in politics, but it is certainly irresponsible and the mark of bad citizenship. |

Incidentally, John McCain being call on the lies in his TV ads -- even to his face on "The View" -- has considerably sobered his campaign, and you're seeing a lot better behavior on his part as a result. Calling a liar a liar works. |

While I don't think lying to win is virtuous, I also think cracking down on freedom of speech is a slippery slope towards government control of more of our lives. I also feel that BHO is going to do everything he can to win the white house. What's he going to do, have John McCain arrested over an ad that he finds offensive? Poor baby. And JSM needs to bring more to the table than he has. He's a much more effective statesman than the Muslim Marxist he's running against. He needs to win with the facts about Barak Obama. All he needs to do is point to the facts! Expose the Muslim Marxist's record. Fox news will report it when the other gestapo run liberal media outlets won't. the word will get out. I also say let the free market decide. there are plenty of fact check organizations that are visible and can check truth statements. I truly fear the democratic party taking over our freedoms in order to introduce a new world order, where you are no longer guaranteed freedoms given to us by God. I'll leave with this: the 'progressives' feel that your freedoms are granted by government. We've never been a country founded on that principal. Your freedoms are given by God, and protected by Government. |

There are several articles on TH which discuss the bailout. Go to one of those.

office. Anyone see anything wrong with that?

What I see is someone so lacking in anything of substance to say that she brings up this bit of irrelevant trivia. Even if it's true - and it has all the hallmarks of right wing BS - what exactly does it mean in your well-informed opinion? Is Obama secretly a Cuban? Has he been speaking Spanish all along and we never noticed? Is he actually Fidel Castro in disguise? Is Castro a crypto-Negro? My God, the possibilities are endless! You've really hit on an important issue, here. It might be a threat to the entire planet. Way to go, Laura! You're my new intellectual hero. |
|
"Is Obama secretly a Cuban?"
No. He's openly a Marxist. |
|
|
The point is, why whould they hang a Cuban instead of an American flag in the first place? Makes one think about their political leanings. |
|
|
Its always the tactic of liars to deflect and silence free speach that will expose their lies, and thats what obama is trying to do.The real story is who elected officials ,DEMS,will ignore thoses who elect them and walk with no reins,the prosecutors who attempt to enforce OBAMAS gag rule should be recalled and sent packing, this is wrong yet goes on and on when do we say NO MORE, and run the bums from office, if they want to work for obama give them their walking papers and tell them go ahead do it full time. |

The lies associated with no one will be paying higher taxes that don't make more than $250,000 are just that....lies.
Do you really think that corporations pay taxes? No they do not. They pass on this cost to the consumer, so if you don't buy anything, you won't pay more, but if you buy food, clothing, gas, ANYTHING you will be paying more for it. If taxes are raised on corporations, you will be paying more....their taxes.
For those RICH people that make over $250,000, they will be less inclined to hire employees, spend money on capital improvements, etc. It's these people that employee people, not for the most part, the people making less than $250,000. Giving people a tax break for more than they pay in taxes is wealth redistribution. That is called Socialism.

All one has to know is Obama's background working with extremists to know that Truth Squads looking after his interests are just one more example of the potential danger this candidate presents. |
|
|
He wants to raise WORKING peoples taxes to give to those too trashy to work. All his old cronies are proven thugs. I cannot afford taxes to go up anymore. We have a small business and he wants to raise self-employment taxes to the extreme on everyone. We only make around 40,000 per year and we would be included in that tax because it's across the board. I am so sick and tired of taking care of low lifes. They also need to cut out earned income credit. It is amazing to me that they can get more money back that what they pay in. In other words they steal my money and give to them. |

Tom Delay talking about the criminalization of politics. That is rich Tom. I guess if there ever was a subject you would have an opinion on, this would be it. It's funny this is one subject that was never brought up when you were leader of the People's house. |
|
|
|
|
Now that you have your required 'Delay is a crook' statement out of the way how about responding to the issue at hand? Do you support Obama's actions to try to stifle political free speech in Missouri? |
|
Sure, let pastor's tell you how to vote fom the pulpit...if they're willing to give up their tax exempt status they can say all they want. Here in Missouri I happen to know at least two churchs own some very fine water front property at Lake of the Ozarks...based on the taxes on mine I imagine the property taxes alone on that real estate might go a long way to help balance the states budget. If they can't pay taxes then they should stick to teaching their parishoners good moral conduct and love thy neighbor as thyself. We could use with fewer politicians with a hammer attitude and more that cared about average folks that work for a living andtry to do what's right for this nation instead of what's expedient for some lobby or their re-election fund |
|
Truth squad?
Ethics laws..... what on earth does that mean? There is no problem with someone stepping in and informing people about inaccurate statements. But to get law enforcement and prosecutors on watch for anybody who's bending the truth? What on earth? Obama will spin anything to make it sound different than it truly is. So how do we define what is truth in politics? The idea that people are trying to enforce the law through a campaign is laughable, let a lone the idea that there is "truth" in politics. |
|
quite simply without referring to the candidate, sadly, even that they do no do. I am a Catholic, I long to hear pro-life message from my pastor in my church. Never. He even instructed the new Priest to stop preaching on the importance of Human Life, eventually had him transferred. Our pastor is a politician first. That is why my family worship mostly at places that at least pray for the unborn. |
|
|
when are they gonna convict this clown and throw away the key? Seems like a long time to get a trial date going. |
|
Ron, if they had anything to convict Delay on, they would have done so. There was no crime. The Liberal mantra has always been that it's not about the nature of the evidence, but the seriousness of the charge.
The Left trumped up charges so that due to GOP ethics rules ( that the Dems of course lack - see Rep. William Jefferson ), Delay would have to step down. Then they laid more such that he had to fight the charges instead of running for re-election.
Over the last several years, I'd seen tons or accusation leveled at GOP'ers that once the GOP'r backed off, the charges miraculously disappeared.
Wake up. If the GOP played half as dirty as the Dems, then we too could run the House for 60 years.

These government officials, if that is what you can call them might as well be communists. How dare they intimidate people voting. Impeach them!! The problem is that Obama is afraid because he has things to hide. Noone would vote for him if they knew the truth. Reject Obama Missourians. You are too intelligent. Tell these Truth squads to "put it where the sun don't shine" as we would say in Texas!! |
|
|
History will look at how Obama ran his campaign and will record, he thought he was "Above the Law". Obama bullied and threaten MS voters by threatening legal action if they don't vote for him. Impressive Tactic or was it a Strategy? |
|
I live in Ohio and today the Republican Party appealed to the court to stop same day registration & voting that started today and will go through the first of October. The courts ruled in favor of same day registration & voting in Ohio. So now the Republicans have to be very vigilent and keep very close eye on how those ballots are handled. We have to make sure there is 'one person one vote' and make sure the people who vote are legal. I think the ballots need to be quarantined until the ballots are validated legal. I'm going to call the Republican Headquarters and see what other actions they're taking to protect Democracy in Ohio. I fear ACORN is going to corrupt the vote in Ohio and the other swing states. Action must be taken to protect Democracy! |

You have the gall to say that you are being persecuted for your political beliefs. Really? You didn't seem to have a problem about injecting your politics on the lives of the Schindler and Schivo families over their personal argument about whether the Schindlers' daughter, Terri, should be allowed to be assisted in suicide.
And about the church and politics thing: Ever heard of the Salem whitch trials that were conducted in colonial America in the 1690s? Or more rercently, the comic book burnings conducted by most churches, chief among them the Catholic Church, in the 1950s? That is the danger of mixing politics with the pews, and thank God for Lyndon B. Johnson for doing the only thing in his career that has actually benefited America (yes, I'm saying he was a lousy president, but I digress), which is adopting the seperation of Church and State so that content-based censorship on the grounds of offending one religion can no longer take effect. Is it really that bad that you might lose your tax-exempt status? Right now, churches have more freedom to say whatever they have to say without being taxed, while others have to pay their dues or fines to the government when they say something that might offend others. Why must you be so needy? |

Let's see.. the last two elections were won by the candidate that told the most effective lies about his opponents. John McCain was knocked out of the Republican Primary in 2000 by lies about him fathering a black child.
So the party that has been out of power that in fact has no recent history of denying citizens their rights is somehow suspect when they put a campaign together to respond to lies.
Even better, because the people who are involved are lawyers the slander against them is that they will somehow prosecute people when the clearly stated aim of the individuals is to respond via public relations and advertising to counteract lies about the candidate they support. But because they are lawyers, the slander about them and the candidate is that it illustrates the legal suppression of the right of the people to be lied to, to hear no alternative view and to be free of any other perspective that might conflict with that lie.
Hmmm. So one party has lied to take us to war, lied that they fired employees for political reasons, lied to the public about circumventing their right to privacy, lied about defending the constitution above all else and when the other party organizes an effort to counter those lies... it's an example of marxism, fascism, political manipulation and grounds to hang them for darring to present an alternative to the prevailing dogma.
You guys are brilliant. Thanks for showing me the truth. I can sleep safe knowing you are looking out for our best interests and that people like you can see through the deciept to the real truth underneath. No lie shall be denied.
God help us all. |

The followers of the Marxist, B. Hussein Obama, have been mesmerized into believing he is the Messiah and no matter what his actions are, be they unconstitutional or criminal in nature, they will gladly walk off the side of a cliff as he stops at the edge to wave them on to their death as he watches. |
|
You guys are too funny. Obama is not a Muslim. Nor is he a Marxist.
Deal with it. |

planet gene writes:

Lets forget the fact B. Hussein Obama is a Stealth Muslim and a devote Marxist, how will you explain to your children why an ex-cocaine addict who was lead into politics by a Communist party activist is your choice as your president?
Yeah, that is exactly what the next generation needs to study and learn about is how America’s future leaders can be any drug dealer / user on the streets presently.

To The7Sticks--Teri Schiavo was NOT trying to commit suicide. She was allowed to die by a "husband" who stood to gain financially from her death and by a "judge" who willing went along with her murder. Yes, I said murder, since the only "proof" there was of her desire to die was the word of that very husband.
To planet gene--Yes, as a matter of fact, I DO think whatever Hussein says is a bunch of lies. If he wasn't a Marxist, then why did he seek out the Marxist professors in college (his words from one of his narcissistic books), why did he have an avowed communist, Frank Marshall Davis, as a "mentor", and why did he go hat-in-hand to an unrepentant terrorist, William Ayers, who bombed the Pentagon and various other locations, has said he wished he had done more, and has a picture of himself standing on the American flag, to get his political career going? |

This tactic by Obama's Schutzstaffel is not a "ridiculous phenomenon." It is a damnable atrocity committed on our liberties. Ridiculous? Well, perhaps then, the Malmedy Massacre was just a ridiculous event.
