Comments on: Obama’s the one https://thenewneo.com/2008/02/14/obamas-the-one/ A blog about political change, among other things Tue, 20 May 2008 16:18:59 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.1.1 By: Dave McGeehan https://thenewneo.com/2008/02/14/obamas-the-one/#comment-58186 Tue, 19 Feb 2008 11:24:39 +0000 http://neoneocon.com/2008/02/14/obamas-the-one/#comment-58186 Just found your site and have only dipped in but I like what I’ve seen so far (I got mugged by reality on 9/11 too and have been finding my way around my new right-wing head ever since). I’ve been impressed by what I’ve heard from McCain but I’m troubled by his vote on waterboarding in the Senate. I see this as a real benchmark issue – I’m happy to take an Israeli view of dealing with terrorists but to me there is nothing to be gained and everything to lose in going down the road of state-sanctioned torture. We are defending our (imperfect) democratic societies from a bunch of angry killers with sexual problems who will hack off our heads with a rusty knife live on the internet. We already own the high moral ground, we just need to hold onto it. Waterboarding and Abu Graib etc give ammo to our enemies – spurious and hypocritical as their arguments may be, they will be aired at every opportunity by apologists in the Western media. Also, what impresses me most about McCain is his consistency – he seems to have been pro-Surge before the Bush administration. I think he’s made a mistake here. I’m open to arguments….

Among Democrats and even many Republicans, it is by now accepted wisdom that the war in Iraq brought huge numbers of holy warriors to the anti-American cause. But is it true? I don’t think so.

But that has to be weighed against which personality Americans could tolerate over the next 4 years.

The Democratic Party actually intends to put a Muslim fundamentalist in the White House. Yes, you read it right. They want to put a man of Muslim origins in the White House.”

The fascinating question is whether it will happen before or after the nominee is decided upon. I feel pretty damn sure it will happen before November. There’s just nothing there–not a single accomplishment of any kind. Sooner or later it’s going to matter to a lot of people.

NAACP Leader Calls for Seating Disenfranchised Delegates, Sharpton Promises Pickets at DC Democrat HQ if They Do

NAACP leader Julian Bond called on the Democratic Party leadership to seat the Florida and Michigan delegates disenfranchised by the Democrats as a penalty for moving their primary dates forward.

The next day, in a letter sent to Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean, the Rev. Al Sharpton said it would be a “grave injustice” if Democrats seated the Florida and Michigan delegates.

In the letter to Dean, Sharpton threatened to march on the Democrats’ Washington, D.C. headquarters if the delegates in question were allowed to vote. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton will be the beneficiary if the votes are allowed.

If she gets a lot the superdellies and the Florida an MI dells get seated, Obambi is toast.

The dems know what happens politically and socially to people who thwart a Clinton.

Beware a woman scorned–Hillary will go scorched earth on the party….

Research this phrase ” Common Purpose” as it applies to a British based international organization.
Then study about it as it applies to Britain and the EU. Particularly how it is alledgedly being used to Crush the last British Nationalist resistance to the EU socialist collective.
Study up on the “Lisbon Treaty.”
Then start listening to how many times Obama uses “common purpose” in his speeches and web page.
Check out Ted Kennedy and the phrase “politics of common purpose”.
Then take a hard look at Obamas immigration plan.

Instead, I read about it on the net and what I read reminds me of Jerzy Kozinski’s book and movie Being There about Chance the gardener played so perfectly in the movie by Peter Sellers. Platitudes masquerading as profundity. Every “hope freak” I know has been sucked in by this guy Obama despite the fact that his real and very nasty agenda growls beneath the “uplifting” messages of his speeches.

The movie clearly declares itself a fantasy by showing a campaign manager having a “What have I DONE?!” moment 🙂
