Niet zijn 'finest hour' maar die hele opmerking is opgegaan in het Joe the Plumber-gebeuren en dat is het nachtkaarsstadium al bijna voorbij.

Tell Congress to Censure Michele Bachmann

updated 10/18 2:00 a.m.

On the October 17 episode of MSNBC's Hardball, Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota claimed that Barack Obama and other members of Congress share anti-American views.

Bachmann thinks that anyone who disagrees with her personal political agenda is unpatriotic. But she is the one who has a lot to learn about what it means to love America.

Her fellow members of Congress need to take a stand and tell Michele Bachmann that her disgusting accusations have no place in our country. Tell Congress to censure Rep. Bachmann.

Powell may endorse Obama in TV interview

Ik zat me net af te vragen of een aanbeveling van Collin Powell wel zo positief is voor de betreffende kandidaat (wie hij ook gaat aanbevelen).

Zal de Amerikaanse kiezer Collin Powell niet zien als een vertegenwoordiger en mede-verantwoordelijke van het wanbeleid van Bush?

quote:

Hoewel Powell een van de meest gematigde personen in deze neoconservatieve regering was, wordt ook hij gezien als mede-aanjager van de oorlog tegen het terrorisme en de oorlogen tegen Afghanistan (2001) en Irak (2003). Anderen zien hem echter als de persoon die de invloeden van 'haviken' als Donald Rumsfeld en Paul Wolfowitz wist in te perken.

quote:

View of the U.S. war in Iraq

In July 2007 Powell revealed that he spent two and a half hours trying to persuade George W. Bush not to invade Iraq but that he did not prevail. At the Aspen Ideas Festival in Colorado[39] Powell stated, "I tried to avoid this war. I took him [Bush] through the consequences of going into an Arab country and becoming the occupiers."[40]

Powell went on to say that he believed Iraq was in a state of civil war. "The civil war will ultimately be resolved by a test of arms. It's not going to be pretty to watch, but I don't know any way to avoid it. It is happening now." He further noted, "It is not a civil war that can be put down or solved by the armed forces of the United States," and suggested that all the U.S. military could do was put "a heavier lid on this pot of boiling sectarian stew".[41]

De Bush-regering heeft Powell misbruikt om de Irak-oorlog te verkopen omdat hij credit had bij de rest van de wereld. Hij is er gewoon ingeluist.

Hilarische film.

quote:

Mr Obama leads Mr McCain by 48 to 44 per cent among likely US voters in the Reuters/Zogby four-day tracking poll, which has a margin of error of 2.9 points.

Mr McCain was backed by 91 per cent of Republicans in the poll, while Mr Obama drew support from just 88 per cent of Democrats.

But Obama still enjoyed a 16-point advantage among independent voters, which many analysts expect to be a deciding factor in the election.

Pollster John Zogby said: "If (Mr McCain) maintains his edge with Republicans, he stays competitive. But he's going to have to increase his share of independents."

Mr Obama, 47, has seen his lead widen in recent weeks amid the global financial crisis, with voters consistently giving him higher marks on economic management.

The 72-year-old Mr McCain now leads in only one age group - those aged 35-49 - while Mr Obama has the edge in virtually all others including the most elderly voters.

"That has got to be the impact of the economy on those who are nearing retirement or in retirement," Mr Zogby said.

Fairfield Neighbors Upset Over Anti-Obama Ghost

Last Update: 10/17 10:55 am

Racist Anti-Obama Display Hung From Tree in Fairfield

Surprise, shock and some fear in a local neighborhood, after an anti-Obama display is hung from a tree. The display is at a home at Symmes and Hicks Road in Fairfield.

And the person who put it there says the message isn't political, it's racist. Shawn Ley spoke with the man who isn't shy about his views.

There it is, right above the "McCain-Palin" sign: a make-shift ghost, hanging from a noose. A Barack Obama sign attached upside down. Obama's middle name: "Hussein" spray painted and misspelled above.

Mike Lunsford hung the ghost in his yard. He spoke to us off-camera, saying his views could hurt his employers business ... but he says make no mistake: He doesn't want an African American running the country.

Lunsford says he believes Barack Obama is not a "full blooded American." And he says the United States is a white, Christian nation - and only with white Christians should be in power. With Lunsford not willing to share his views on-camera:

"It's like whoa. He's definitely anti-black."

His neighbors are. Vickie Crowe lives next door. She's an Obama supporter.

"What did you think when you first saw that?" Vickie Crowe/neighbor: "Well actually my 5 year old son says Obama's hanging upside down. He's what? He's hanging upside down. It's the neighbor's ghost. I took it as a little bit of a racist statement because my grandson's mixed and it hurt a little bit."

Mike Lunsford says he got the idea after an Obama supporter in New York put up this display of a Obama mannequin being chased by a figure of John McCain wearing Ku Klux Klan robes.

Here - new mom Megan story says this symbol makes her more than uneasy it scares her. Megan Story/neighbor: "He's been a really nice neighbor but it's one of those you question and wonder, you know, if he's that forward about something will he be forward enough to do something else, too. it is scary at times but we live in a scary world."

Lunsford also says he's motivated by the national media which he says is pro-Obama. The McCain KKK image is being celebrated as a "hit" on the internet. Lunsford expects a negative reaction to this, although he hasn't gotten any complaints.
