Democrats see race factor for Barack Obama foes. (Hat tip: American Thinker.)
To which I say: Bring it on, Dumbs. I wish you all the luck in making the race card all but empty of any sting, force or meaning. Then people will no longer see the black color of a certain person's skin but the red color of his politics.

What are you guys going to do? Write letters? Make phone calls? Make witty hand written protest signs?
BECAUSE WE KNOW YOU AREN'T GOING TO USE THE 2ND AMENDMENT.
I swear, The Great American Wimp pisses me off more than Leftists.

What a tough guys Gooch is, but like most of his type, he's never going to do anything to anyone. What's sadder than an internet tough guy?
How about his conception of democracy as "let's have a vote, and if I win, great - if you win, I'll shoot and kill you and win anyway." Just like the founders said, right? But you're so concerned about the erosion of our republic. What an idiot.
BTW - when Bush, an oligarch by any definition (how many people can say their father was POTUS?) was expanding federal power and running up huge defecits, where were the protests?
Keep doing whatever your corporate masters tell you to - I'm sure you'll be lavishly rewarded at some point.

Anyone else hear a faint annoying whine in the distance? Kinda like an ailing mosquito?

Several, actually. Oddly enough, that noise has never actually brought a smile to my face, until now.

I'm just pointing out that you're undemocratic cowards - actually, I can see how that might annoy you.

“They Can’t Stop Us!” Obama Makes Disgusting Partisan Attack in Minnesota Speech Saturday!
Is this the same man who promised a new era of bipartisanship and working with both sides to solve problems?
That was just another of his LIES!
On a day when hundreds of thousands of citizens gathered in Washington, DC to demand their voices be heard, Obama was in Minnesota. The first 48 seconds are all you need to hear:
Who is “they?” Seems to me his biggest obstacle in his overreaching bid for a government takeover of health care are members of his own party!
This speech is another demonstration of the real Barack Hussein Obama. A hardcore liberal who refuses to compromise and can’t break away from campaign mode.
If the man had spent HALF the time he has in campaign mode by instead working with Republicans , he might have a health care bill by now. But it seems that attack mode is all the man knows.
A perpetual partisan campaign is not the way to provide presidential leadership on the really big and important issues. Obama’s arrogant attack campaign will only generate more negativity towards his Administration from Independents and Republicans alike. Post

Message to Teabaggers
First off I'd like to say I've never seen such a bunch of human garbage gathered in the same place in my entire life. The Pentagon should have dropped a bomb on you and did the world a favor.
Second. You are NOT winning elections in 2010. BECAUSE we fixed the voting machine problem. Ya know the rigged software you guys were stealing elections with for 30 years? Unless you can find a way to get rid of those paper trails you're FUCKED AGAIN!
You're a minority in this country. You don't represent the people. You may represent Wall Street, the banksters, the insurance companies and the corporations that are raping our country but they are NOT the people. You are 30% at the most and your pathological lying won't work forever. The PEOPLE will not follow you when they have all the details of your scumbag deceptions.
Another news flash for you. What will happen to the companies you work for when the world finds out they are employing low life racist maggots? They have to sell their products to whole countries of people of color. Do their customers know they have trash like you on the payroll? Trash like you that want them dead? I don't think they do!
Get ready to get FIRED! The world won't put up with your filth and that's a fact!
And tell your senior teabaggers to GET A JOB AND GET OFF THE SOCIALISM! They got a lot of nerve triple dipping and then bitching about taxes and yelling at Democrats. If it wasn't for the Democratic Party they wouldn't have shit! Ungrateful bastards maybe death panels wasn't a bad idea after all!
One last thing. OUR Congress will NOT listen to you because if they do and we catch them we'll break their fucking necks!

If the Reds in congress don't listen to us they lose and if they do listen to us they lose.
I'm liking this more and more! Those stupid Reds are caught between a rock and a hard place. Yeah! Now that's a win win situation for America.

Obama’s ACORN II
(Please see “Obama’s ACORN, the Early Days,” http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=1215, which reviewed the history of the president’s involvement with that extremist, revolutionary, anti-American organization and ACORN’s inspirations, smarmy affiliations, and misuse of millions of taxpayer dollars.)
The most recent scandal surrounding ACORN represents profound testimony to the group’s hypocrisy and utter contempt for law.
By now most people have heard of its advice and instructions to two Fox News Channel investigative reporters posing as a pimp and his girlfriend/prostitute.
In brief, the poseurs, James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles, went to two ACORN offices where they were given helpful advice on avoiding taxes, evading the cops and, most reprehensibly, instructed on how to get away with trafficking in Latina child slavery.
(See videos below.)
ACORN’s “chief organizer,” Bertha Lewis, elected the best-defense-is-a-good-offense strategy and Ms. Lewis was very offensive indeed, accusing Fox of “relentless attacks,” perpetrating a “scam” and even charging the investigators with what “our lawyers believe a felony–and we will be taking legal action against Fox and their co-conspirators.”
The only attacks have been ACORN’s assaults on truth and honesty; the only scam has been ACORN’s pretense of being committed to empowerment whereas its actual purpose has been to undermine law and societal values; the chief crime has been ACORN’s very existence.
Ms. Lewis went on in her statement to comically and indignantly write, “I am appalled and angry; I cannot and I will not defend the actions of the workers depicted in the video, who have since been terminated. But it is clear that the videos are doctored, edited, and in no way the result of the fabricated story being portrayed:” http://bit.ly/YyiCb.
If I correctly follow her argument, the whole mess is a scam, the videos in question are fraudulent, yet innocent ACORN victims were nevertheless fired? . . .

An Open Letter to President Obama, re: Terrorism
Dear President Obama:
The eighth anniversary of 9/11 recently passed, with little recognition from your White House. You prefer to honor that awful day by calling it “A National Day of Service and Remembrance,” with the remembrance part almost as an afterthought.
Your Democratic congress has now rubber-stamped your wish. Now 9/11 will be equated with a day to pick up trash on city streets and volunteering to work as ACORN militants rather than as a day for commemorating a vicious, mindless, unprovoked attack on our national soil by Islamic fanatics which resulted in the deaths of thousands of innocent people.
Demonstrating the absurdity of that designation, Sen. Charles Schumer (D. N.Y.) fully supports it: http://bit.ly/FOdSi.
With all due respect, Mr. President, I firmly believe that you and your fellow Democrats are either living in a fantasy world or, and I hesitate to write this, that you yearn for another 9/11 thinking that the popularity that accrued to President Bush in 2001 will somehow accrue to you after the next massacre.
Frankly, I don’t think that will happen and if the next attack is as ugly as 9/11, you and your Democratic Party will, rightfully, be seen as culpable due to years of minimizing and/or ignoring the threat that has never diminished, has never disappeared.
With any luck, following that assault–which will inevitably come and which very well may be far more devastating to our country–the Democratic Party may not survive as a viable political institution.
I honestly hope it does survive, despite its stupidity and iniquity.
More importantly, I hope we survive as a nation.
I’ve heard that you are a constitutional scholar, Mr. President, so I wouldn’t presume to suggest I could offer any insights into your consitutional scholarship. I will therefore only present my admittedly ignorant observations.
The Founding Fathers, based on my limited understanding, understood that this new country needed checks and balances on the various powers and therefore sculpted into the Constitution the counterbalancing executive, legislative, and judicial branches. We need opposing parties to keep the party in power in check.
One essential requisite for any American political party, however, is that its fundamental interest be the well being, . . .
