Amerikaanse Presidentsverkiezingen #45: McCain is black

quote:

Palin Counters AP Slam: “The Associated Press is Wrong. “


by Fin Gomez
SAN FRANCISCO, CA -

Before leaving for a fundraising stop in San Francisco, Sarah Palin responded to a reporter’s question on the AP analysis this morning that framed Palin’s recent attacks on Obama as ” racially-tinged.”

“The Associated Press is wrong. The comments are about an association that has been known but hasn’t been talked about and I think its fair to talk about where Barack Obama kicked off his political career, in the guy’s living room. And he of course, having been associated with that group, a known domestic terrorist group, it’s important for Americans to know. Its really important for Americans to start knowing who the real Barack Obama is.”

In an analysis piece out today, AP writer Douglass K. Daniel slammed Palin’s recent shots on Obama’s past association with radical militant Bill Ayers as “ unsubstantiated and carried a racially-tinged subtext that John McCain himself may come to regret.”

Alaska has the highest rape rate in USA.

However, most of the abortion excuse... 95% were Birth Control Pill failure.
only 1% were from Rape and Incest.
4% were due to fetal abnormalities or mother's health problems.

So here's my question.... why ban abortion that was from rape or incest if they are NOT the majority?

Palin's views are stupid.

Pitbull Palin Mauls McCain



SARAH PALIN’S post-Couric/Fey comeback at last week’s vice presidential debate was a turning point in the campaign. But if she “won,” as her indulgent partisans and press claque would have it, the loser was not Joe Biden. It was her running mate. With a month to go, the 2008 election is now an Obama-Palin race — about “the future,” as Palin kept saying Thursday night — and the only person who doesn’t seem to know it is Mr. Past, poor old John McCain.

To understand the meaning of Palin’s “victory,” it must be seen in the context of two ominous developments that directly preceded it. LEES VERDER...

Welnee ... d'r is geen noemenswaardige connectie.

McCain heeft openlijk gezegd dat ze vanaf nu "op de man" gingen spelen en dat het moddergooien dus zou beginnen van hun kant af. Dat is hetzelfde als zeggen dat ze aan het verliezen zijn en dat ze het niet kunnen redden met logica en redenatie. Dat Palin voorop staat om de modder te gooien geeft alleen maar aan wat haar functie is ; als handpop zij kan het beste liegen dat ze barst zonder dat McCain er veel schade onder lijdt ... denken ze.

Obama beticht van aannemen illegale bijdragen

WASHINGTON - De Democratische presidentskandidaat Barack Obama heeft te weinig actie ondernomen om illegale bijdragen voor zijn campagne uit de verkiezingskas te houden. Dat heeft het Nationale Comité van de Republikeinse Partij (RNC) zondag gesteld.


Volgens het RNC heeft Obama illegale bijdragen van buitenlanders geaccepteerd en heeft hij meer geld aangenomen van kleine donoren dan wettelijk is toegestaan. De RNC wil dat de Federale Kiescommissie (FEC) zich over de fondswerving door Obama buigt.

Een woordvoerder van Obama zei dat het team van de Democratische kandidaat alle mogelijke inspanningen levert om te voorkomen dat er illegale bijdragen binnenkomen. Ook wees hij erop dat de Republikein John McCain 1,2 miljoen dollar (870.000 euro) aan donoren heeft moeten teruggeven, omdat die giften niet legaal zouden kunnen zijn

Beetje vreemd dat Colorado bij McCain wordt bijgeschreven. Je zou het wellicht nog als toss-up zien, maar het is meer leaning Obama.

McCain Brother Calls Northern Virginia 'Communist Country'

Republican presidential candidate John McCain's brother made an apparent joke at a campaign rally this weekend that might not play well in parts of newly competitive Virginia.

Joe McCain, speaking at an event in support of his brother, called two Democratic-leaning areas in Northern Virginia "communist country," according to a report on The Washington Post's Web site.

"I've lived here for at least 10 years and before that, about every third duty I was in either Arlington or Alexandria, up in communist country," Joe McCain, a Navy veteran, said about his military postings. He spoke at an event in Loudon County, Va.

Joe McCain then apologized, but the remark drew laughter at the event, according to the report.

Virginia has long been a Republican stronghold in presidential elections, but Democrat Barack Obama is running even or ahead of McCain in recent state polls. Obama is being helped by fast-growing communities in the Washington, D.C., suburbs of Northern Virginia, which tend to vote more Democratic than other parts of the state.

One of those areas is Arlington, Va., where John McCain owns a condominium.

"This was Joe McCain's unsuccessful attempt at humor," said McCain campaign spokeswoman Gail Gitcho. "John McCain and Sarah Palin are committed to winning the support of voters in Northern Virginia and understand the region's importance to victory statewide."

quote:

McCain's Own 60's Radical Pal

McCain campaign shows no shame in engaging in a tired guilt-by-association tactic as Sarah Palin accuses Obama of "palling around with terrorists." This desperate calumny derives from Obama once serving on the same non-profit board as former 60's radical Bill Ayers, one of the founders of the Weather Underground.

But what about McCain's own associations with former 60's radicals. Indeed, until just a few years ago, McCain openly boasted not only about his passing friendship but also his deep collaboration with one of the most prominent of Vietnam-era student radicals, David Ifshin. The same David Ifshin who denounced America on Radio Hanoi as McCain sat locked up as a POW.

(...)

That John McCain is unrecognizable from the man who today stands behind the scurrilous attacks suggesting that Barack Obama pals around with terrorists because Bill Ayres - when Obama was literally eight years old--stupidly fancied himself an armed revolutionary.

The old John McCain was able to overcome his own repulsion against a young man who went on the radio station of the enemy who was holding and torturing him and built a warm friendship with him.

If heroism is defined by physical suffering, Carol McCain is every bit her ex-husband's equal. Driving alone on Christmas Eve 1969, she skidded out on a patch of ice and crashed into a telephone pole. She would spend six months in the hospital and undergo 23 surgeries. The former model McCain bragged of to his buddies in the POW camp as his "long tall Sally" was now five inches shorter and walked with crutches.

By any standard, McCain treated her contemptibly. Whatever his dreams of getting laid in Rio, he got plenty of ass during his command post in Jacksonville. According to biographer Robert Timberg, McCain seduced his conquests on off-duty cross-country flights — even though adultery is a court-martial offense. He was also rumored to be romantically involved with a number of his subordinates.

On a diplomatic trip to Saudi Arabia with Tower, he tried to get some tourists he disliked in trouble with the authorities by littering the room-service trays outside their door with empty bottles of alcohol.

McCain performed adequately on the Oriskany. On October 25th, 1967, he bombed a pair of Soviet MiGs parked on an airfield outside Hanoi. His record was now even. Enemy planes destroyed by McCain: two. American planes destroyed by McCain: two.

Liddy served four and a half years in prison in connection with his conviction for his role in the Watergate break-in and the break-in at the office of the psychiatrist of Daniel Ellsberg, the military analyst who leaked the Pentagon Papers. Liddy has acknowledged preparing to kill someone during the Ellsberg break-in "if necessary"; plotting to murder journalist Jack Anderson; plotting with a "gangland figure" to murder Howard Hunt to stop him from cooperating with investigators; plotting to firebomb the Brookings Institution; and plotting to kidnap "leftist guerillas" at the 1972 Republican National Convention -- a plan he outlined to the Nixon administration using terminology borrowed from the Nazis. (The murder, firebombing, and kidnapping plots were never carried out; the break-ins were.) During the 1990s, Liddy reportedly instructed his radio audience on multiple occasions on how to shoot Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents and also reportedly said he had named his shooting targets after Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Liddy has donated $5,000 to McCain's campaigns since 1998, including $1,000 in February 2008. In addition, McCain has appeared on Liddy's radio show during the presidential campaign, including as recently as May. An online video labeled "John McCain On The G. Gordon Liddy Show 11/8/07" includes a discussion between Liddy and McCain, whom Liddy described as an "old friend." During the segment, McCain praised Liddy's "adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great," said he was "proud" of Liddy, and said that "it's always a pleasure for me to come on your program."

Additionally, in 1998, Liddy reportedly held a fundraiser at his home for McCain. Liddy was reportedly scheduled to speak at another fundraiser for McCain in 2000. The Charlotte Observer reported on January 23, 2000, that McCain's campaign vouched for Liddy's "character"

Hij roept naar mijn mening alleen wel heel makkelijk dat als McCain een goed antwoord geeft op die financiële crisis hij Obama voorbij gaat.
