[hide=Very very long post]

The prospect of a Barack Obama presidency makes me very nervous.

 

 

 

Obama's entire campaign has been based on the need for radical, transformational change, which implies there is something very wrong with America.

 

 

 

It's hardly surprising, then, that he has painted the bleakest picture of America instead of acknowledging, as a starting point, that we are still the greatest nation in the world.

 

 

 

For the past eight years, Democrats have slandered America as an imperialistic country that always prefers force to diplomacy; that attacks nations without provocation to enrich itself and to project its power; that intentionally targets civilian lives; that encourages sadistic torture of enemy prisoners, as opposed to tough interrogation techniques to extract information to save the lives of its people; that eavesdrops on private conversations among its citizens rather than monitoring terrorist communications into its borders; and that abuses rather than goes out of its way to accommodate the savages in Guantanamo's prison. None of it is true.

 

 

 

For eight years, Democrats have poor-mouthed the mostly growing economy. They've lied that Bush's tax cuts for all income groups were only for the wealthy and that the cuts reduced revenues. They pretend to be deficit hawks, when Obama's new spending plans alone will make Bush look like Scrooge. They said Bush wanted to destroy Social Security, when he's the only one in the past 20 years who had the courage to try to reform it. All lies.

 

 

 

They've preached bipartisanship while exhibiting the nastiest partisanship in my lifetime, calling Bush "King George III," "Hitler," a "murderer," a "war criminal," a "reckless cowboy," a "moron" and a "Christian throwback." They've caricatured Bush as an unbending partisan who wouldn't reach across the aisle, in the face of his countless and mostly rebuffed bipartisan overtures and legislation. More disinformation.

 

 

 

They've deliberately divided this nation on the basis of race, class, gender and religion while telling us, falsely, that conservatives are racists, greedy, sexists, homophobes and religious bigots.

 

 

 

The propaganda triumvirate -- Democrats, the liberal media and leftist bloggers -- have portrayed President Bush, Vice President Cheney and America as dark and evil forces and have whipped the country into a frenzy of desperation, setting the table for a charismatic leader to deliver us from the despair they've manufactured with relentless precision. Barack Obama, with his mysterious past and messianic aura, then burst upon the scene with the focused purpose of capitalizing on the public's perceived woes by offering dramatic change and unspecified hope. As if the script had been written just for him, he stepped right into his role, expanding on this theme of despair. He stressed how bleak conditions are, how unfair America is to the less fortunate and middle class, how ugly America is in foreign affairs, how the values of average Americans are warped (bitter clingers), how hardworking producers who oppose confiscatory tax rates but who contribute more to charity than Obama and his running mate even contemplate are selfish, and how America is a global environmental menace.

 

 

 

With all respect, almost everything about Obama's campaign is fraudulent. He masquerades as a uniter while dividing, polarizing and alienating us. He denies he's liberal, when objective sources score him as the most liberal senator. He says he barely knows militants and radicals with whom he has spent his lifetime cavorting and whose worldviews -- horrifyingly -- he shares. He brazenly disguises welfare redistributions as tax cuts. He and his surrogates keep changing his tax plan.

 

 

 

With his ideas about spreading the wealth, entrepreneurial selfishness, the ongoing "original sin" in our Constitution, the inherent evil of corporations, nationalized health care, and the civil rights movement not doing enough to bring about "economic justice" -- a euphemism for "Marxism" used by radicals, such as Bill Ayers, who still hate America -- are you not concerned at just how far Obama might go if he's got a nearly veto-proof Democratic majority at his back?

 

 

 

With his known discomfort with American exceptionalism, his naive mindset about good and evil in the world, his reckless underestimation of threats to America, his stated intention to disarm our nuclear weapons unilaterally, his open-borders extremism, his willingness to relax our intelligence monitoring, and his misguided concern for terrorists' rights, how can America be as secure under his watch?

 

 

 

With his sordid background in "community organizing" and his symbiotic relationship with an organization that is engaged in a systematic effort to steal this election, his thug tactics to investigate and silence his critics, and his Democratic colleagues' willingness to use government to shut down conservative talk radio, are you not worried about our liberties under an Obama administration?

 

 

 

Before our very eyes, America stands poised to elect as president the most radical man ever to run for this office credibly. Don't say we didn't warn you.

I was wondering if anyone on tip.it actually agrees with this guy? Because I know there are alot of fellow lefties on off-topic.

 

 

 

I analysed it from a satirical point of view on my blog, also. :D

 

From a British perspective, this just proves all those stereotypes. Also the comments below are particularly funny.

 

I posted a long rant, on my blog about it.

 

http://roadrunnerblog.wordpress.com/

All lies.

 

 

 

Pretty sad, that this guy has deluded himself into thinking that.

I can only say one thing: TIF, find a good :facepalm: smilie or I will. -.-

He's right. It's all a conspiracy. The Democrats are greedy communists who are trying to compromise our great nation's history of peace, love, and liberty. They have ruthlessly lied about a failing economy and the existence of a so called "Patriot Act." In reality, our nation is the richest country and does not spy upon its own citizens. George Bush is really an amazing leader and he developed the Internet, polio vaccine, and we will soon have the cure for AIDS.

 

 

 

Remember, Hitler wasn't right wing at all. He was LEFT WING!

 

 

 

:roll:

Title=Epic fail.

 

 

 

Did not laugh, I agree with all except for paragraph five; I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt that the Dems haven't called Bush all that... BUT JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE. He's right.

I didn't laugh.

Was this written by a Republican or a Democrat? It's written with a slight sarcastic tone and goes a little over the top sometimes, but it makes a lot of good points that I personally swear by, especially when it comes to ragging on the current government.

 

 

 

EDIT: Was that rant on the last link actually written by you? Dear Lord we better not ever debate politics. I don't think my respect for you could survive three posts of that.

 

 

 

All he did was say that Democrats paint this nation as being a hellhole that is doomed to destroy itself, and he doesn't agree. No need to get all attacky about that, Jebas.

 

 

 

EDIT2: 'kay, I read your kind rant, one that made very valid points and did not attack him unjustly at all. Respect is currently six feet under.

I didn't laugh.

 

 

 

Pretty much sums up my post.

I don't get the big deal. I've seen worse on both sides. Not to mention this doesn't even seem serious. His views are a little bit over the top for me, but they're still his views. He just takes in the primarily Democratic yearning for constant change and select comments, and spins them outta control in his head. Worse articles have been taken seriously.

 

 

 

Your "rant" is more idiotic than this fellow's. Stop being so damned close-minded. Your little whine is entitled "right wing [wagon]". You're clearly the open-minded one :lol:

Heh, the internet is full of people who are wrong. Just google "Obama will lose" or "mccain will win" and read all the angry, hilarious 'lists of reasons' which aren't made with the slightest hint of humor.

 

 

 

The guy in that article does go a bit over the top, maybe it's a bit funny but not even nearly the funniest politics article ever. The average Joe wouldn't even know what the hell he's rambling on about.

He's a Limbaugh, what do you expect?

I didn't laugh. And some of what he said was/is true.

Not really funny at all, it just exemplifies the pure hatred that is derived from politics toward candidates from the opposing side...yes, hatred.

Sadly, you're right. The best way to show this exists in both parties is to look at the reactions of the crowds in both McCain's and Obama's speeches from November 4. In McCain's speech, the crowd literally GROWLS every time he says the words Barack Obama. My sister thought there was a wild dog outside, and she was IN THE OTHER FREAKING ROOM. This shows up on a lesser degree in the Obama speech as well, but he's capable of quashing it later. Either way, it shows just how divided the country is right now. Articles like both what Limbaugh and megakiller32 are why it's in that state, among other things. Hopefully, by the time that Obama's done with his first term, this will ebb away at least in part. However, I know that there's more than a few people who'd want to cause it to end prematurely. There's always a chance, but here's to the Secret Service being some of the best professionals on or off the planet. [optimism][worry]

it didnt make me laugh and some of what he is saying is true.

He may have taken it to the extremes, but his basic reasoning follows my perspective. With all due respect, the Democrats have morphed Bush into something he isn't, and made America seem like a much worse place than it is in reality. Any of you Americans, walk down the street and find me 10 examples of an America condemned to damnation and I will happily acknowledge it, but they just aren't all there.

 

 

 

They've deliberately divided this nation on the basis of race, class, gender and religion while telling us, falsely, that conservatives are racists, greedy, sexists, homophobes and religious bigots.

 

 

 

Just wanted to take a small part out... In any public debate/sharing of opinions I'm almost instantly hated for saying anything positive about Bush, and labeled with some of the above things. It's frustrating to have to withhold the entirety of my opinion merely to avoid the enormous amount of hate aimed at me.

Of course, the Democrats do it also. But it is pretty obvious, given you know the real facts, that most of the statements in this article are the very attacks John McCain used against Obama, most being overblown or just plain false.

 

 

 

As for people blindly invalidating your opinions because you say positive things about Bush, well those people probably don't know [poop] about politics and are just another talking sheep in the heard, listening to overblown claims as shown above. Regardless, in my opinion, Bush was an absolute horrible president and I have absolutely zero respect for him; and I'm not even very Democrat. But yes, Bush has done some good things.

 

 

 

If you are against the overblown and hatred-derived statements and facts about Bush, then why can't you see that that is exactly what this article is doing to Obama?

I did say I was left wing. :P

 

On the bright side, atleast I can begin to think about attempting to understand the right-wing peoples points of views?

I laughed a bit at your blog because it's true. Has this guy been eating cattle lately? Because there appears to be bull coming out of his mouth.

It's a Limbaugh. His brother helped pirates realize they should up the antes on their ransoms by millions of dollars.

I didn't laugh.
