The HYPOCRATS

[e_dog]

Dems should change thar nickname from donkeys to hippos. because deys a bunch o hippocrats.


McCain's Right.

John McCain also appeared to target Obama during his victory speech. Sen. John McCain: “I will fight every moment of every day of this campaign to make sure Americans are not deceived by eloquent but empty calls for change.”

Repubs. 'll give ya a oppressiv corporate warfare state that screws the poor. The Dems 'll give you the same, but say they are for change. be honest. vote Repub.

Scuttle the ship. Viva HUCKABEE.

"and the hippos were boiled in their tanks" Kerouac book or poem or something like that.

I was just trying to decide where to post this
I figured you would not care too much if I put it here.

I know we both want somebody pure to be president, we sure don't want any hippocrits in there. We need sincerity now more than ever. Mabye somebody like Huckabee, you can bet your boots that nobody less hippo than him, except maybe George W Bush.

Strange flash back, I keep finding myself wanting to vote for McCain. They were right about me at litkicks. I guess I do need professional help.

anyway here is my post about Obama that I was going to put on jimbo's thread but he gets testy when I try to high jack one of his posts

maybe it kind of relates.
Not saying Obama is a hippo
Just thinking about how little I really know about him.

A lot of trash about Obama being a secrete muslim, we know that aint true. But what do we know about his religion. Sometimes I wish we had a state religion like England does. Our religious policy set by the government. I heard Bertrand Russell say in a lecture from the year 1927 that the privy council had set a new policy that Christians do not have to believe in Hell anymore.

Meanwhile back at Obama’s church in Chicago.


The church magazine picked Louis Louis Farrakhan as its person of the year,. I find that disquieting. If Profiles In Courage was written today there would have to be a chapter on Malcom X. I have always thought that Farrakhan had malcom’s blood on his hands. But Malcom’s daughter forgave him, who am I to be paranoid about Farrakhan

Obama's spiritual mentor
Powerhouse Chicago preacher draws attention, and plenty of controversy


Obama took the title of his more recent book, The Audacity of Hope, from the first sermon he heard preached by Wright, whom Obama met while working in Chicago as a community organizer.

In Dreams from My Father, Obama wrote of his reaction on hearing that sermon in 1988: "In that single note - hope! - I heard something else: At the foot of that cross, inside the thousands of churches across the city, I imagined the stories of ordinary black people merging with the stories of David and Goliath, Moses and the Pharaoh, the Christians in the Lion's Den, Ezekiel's field of dry bones. Those stories became our story, my story; the blood that had spilled was our blood, the tears our tears; until this black church on this bright day seemed once more a vessel carrying the story of a people into future generations and into a larger world."

I don’t guess anybody remembers Adam Clayton Powell.

Maybe Republicans should change their names to Repubertycans, since they all act like teenagers even when they are old.

No obligations to vote for anyone. No obligations to be "nice" or progressive. McCain and Hillary are fairly obnoxious and traditional: at least they aren't pitching utopia, like BO izz

[e_dog]

Write-in Vote for Castro.

[Totenkopf]

Si see pway-day! Yes, and if you get in the party, you could start rounding up undesirables, imprisoning them, making them disappear. Of course if ya don't get in the partia, youll probably be rounded up.

Don't vote---as you yawped. Or vote for BO as Salesman of the Year, that is Xtian Salesman. Hill as Edith Bunker replicant. McCain. 1st place Nixon imitation. THIN THE HERD

[Totenkopf]

We here at TotenkopfCo believe that Hillary, while hardly admirable in all respects, remains the strongest on civil liberties issues, superior to both McCain and BO. For those concerned with that issue—really with preserving Due Process, rights to free expression, rational dissent, a secular constitution, etc. (including Net Neutrality)–Hillary would probably be the best choice (BO has waffled on CL. and has sounded quite conservative and cop like at times—he at one time was for decrim of drugs, then changed his tune a few months ago. McCain sounds fairly J-Edgarish, though admittedly has military experience) . Go Hillocracy

[mnaz]

Just a quick note or two here (on Obama, etc.)...

1) Re: "Reverend Obama". Unfortunately, that is what it's come down to. A candidate must wear the Christian God on his or her sleeve at times to gain truer electability. Protestants preferred please. An openly gay candidate spouting scripture would have a better chance of winning than an agnostic or an atheist. Now I don't know the true extent and depth of BO's Xtian faith, but do the math. You want to be Prez, you gotta walk the Xtian walk, or at least talk the Xtian talk.

2) On drug decrim.: You want to be Prez., you can't be for drug decrim. (see McGovern). Hence the switch. Same thing applies to gun control (see Al Gore). Also, if he was for drug decrim., it kinda makes you wonder about all his "faith and family" stuff of late, no? And why haven't the Repubs jumped all over that one (drug decrim.)? Hmm...

unless, of course, you're a palestinian.



or an iraqi.

or a poor american w/o healthcare.

[hester_prynne]

He's not the freakin Reverend Obama? How do you get that? Because he is touching a chord with people so that makes him a Rev? Because's he's closer to knowing what the reality is for more than just the ignorant elite?

I'm tired of all the elite ignorance and bullshit. Yadda yadda yadda. They always make their god damn points in the end by shaking their greedy fists and saying shame on you. Shame on you for wanting me to really see you.

Queen hillary, giving out her cakes and signing the Nafta papers.
Queen hillary, trying to be "forceful" like ol Bill's been bein.
Yeah, use bully talk like bush and his cronies do.

She can go to hell after these hijinks. I'm truly ashamed of her, but surer now than ever of her true "colors".

Equal blessings for all....

Totenkopf (not me) has previously been characterizing B.O. as such, though perhaps not in this thread. Sorry, should have made that clearer.

Besides, Hester, did you read what I said? I basically said that you have to court the evangelical Xtian vote in some overt way (if not outright kiss its ass, like GWB, inc. did) to have a real shot at the Presidency.

[hester_prynne]

Understood, but it is pretty cynical to think that the goddites have to be herded in and atoned to for anyone to politically make it. When are they going to let loose of this crap? Geez. If you don't believe in God you can't even get a decent job!!!! "Yes I'm a believer, so can I have the 8.65 dollar an hour job now?" Fuck me.

I didn't mean to sound rude or harsh when I asked that question about why rev. Obama. I'm just frustrated that maybe because some newsjerk on tv calls him reverendlike that he gets that reputation even though it's just some tv mannequin's opinion. It's like make it a context around him now, even though it has nothing to do with reality! It's a freaking stereotype! People don't even get that!

Barak added a southern christian leadership accent to his speaking voice 'cause it goes over well with focugroups.

REV. Obama, but without the social justice, HE AIN'T CHRISTIAN ENOUGH in my book.

[mnaz]

Ain't nobody Christian enough for the evangels...

'ceptn may Pat Robertson... Vive le end times!!!
