To the other McCain supporters - are we ready to concede yet? Gallup has Obama at 52% to McCain's 41% (www.gallup.com...) and they also projected him as the winner of the second debate.
As much as I distrust Obama and I KNOW he's defrauded the public with regard to his past and his questionable affiliations, the American public has spoken loud and clear that they don't care about those issues. They don't care that Obama stands for socialism and removal of Constitutional rights. Obama supporters are like these investors - they want instant gratification. I really believe Obama supporters believe that as soon as he takes office that things will just magically get better. We know better. We know they are in for a rude awakening.
Time to concede defeat, is what I'm thinking. Let's just admit that (unless there's a late breaking scandal) Obama has this race wrapped up, brace ourselves for four years of horrible times and pray to God that in 2012 the Republican people are smart enough to nominate someone that's actually interesting in change for the better.

Wow you have just lived through the greatest destruction of the constitution and civil liberties EVER - in the history of the United States - crimes against the freedoms of Americans perpetrated by Republicans and you try and pin the removal of constitutional rights on Obama ?
Wow - now I have read it all man...that is some whacky stuff right there.

I take it offensively that you say Obama has fooled myself and others. I think not sir, I have researched every allegation against him. I know the truth behind his tax plans and health care plans. Socialism is just a word thrown by the heads of the right wing to scare the public.
First Obama said that his association with Antoin "Tony" Rezko, who is currently facing federal charges of attempted extortion, money laundering, and fraud, wasn't a close association, which news reports later showed wasn't exactly the truth. Then further digging showed there was also more money that exchanged hands than previously admitted.
Sam Graham-Felsen, a journalist-on-leave from The Nation, joined Obama for America in March 2007 where he works for the New Media department as the official blogger, daily presenting the campaign's public face. Now he's under fire for his reputed Marxist sympathies from bloggers at Common Ills on the left and Little Green Footballs on the right. Graham-Felsen, according to a 2003 article in the Harvard Crimson, adorned one corner of his shared student apartment with "a Communist Party flag ... bought on their trip to Russia the summer after sophomore year."
According to Huffington Post, who listed information about paid staffers on the Obama payroll, from America campaign 2007 second quarter report, Graham-Felsen is a paid staffer for Barack Obama.
The WND article goes on to say that Graham-Felsen used to have a Communist Party flag in his Harvard campus apartment and published in a self-professed 'revolutionary Marxist' journal.
JERUSALEM – While officials here largely maintain a policy against interfering in U.S. election politics, some Israeli security officials quietly expressed "concern" about an adviser to Sen. Barack Obama who has advocated negotiations with Hamas and providing international assistance to the terrorist group.
The officials noted Robert Malley, a principal Obama foreign policy adviser, has penned numerous opinion articles, many of them co-written with a former adviser to the late Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat, petitioning for dialogue with Hamas and blasting Israel for numerous policies he says harm the Palestinian cause.

the "right to bear arm's" is not the right to bear any weapon you wish, by that logic people should be free to have a nuke in the back yard and a chemical weapons lab in their basement. saying that you cannot own a weapon that is designed solely for the purpose of killing other people, just because you want one, is not an infringement of your rights.
calling, or even spaming, a radio show is not a restriction of rights either, how is it?
it looks to me like your understanding of the constitution is gleamed from the same place bush got his.

Common SO! You are starting to remind me of Joe Scarborough! Why would you want to depress your fellow Republican voters?
Let me tell you something. In 2004 I was the only one in my large group of liberal friends who was voting Bush. We would all go out on the weekends and I would be there defending Bush against my liberal friend's onslaught from all sides. They were confident they had the election and would rub it in the closer we got to November.
The day after the election, I called all of them to gloat and found out that I was the only one who actually voted. Not a single one of them felt they actually needed to vote.
So lift that chin up, get the jelly out of your spine and get voting booth on the big day! McCain is still in this game.

Those are the Annenbergs. They are the ones who funded the EDUCATIONAL board that was partially comprised of Obama and Ayres. Did you know that Mr. Annenberg was a conservative diplomat ? Guess who appointed Mr. Annenberg to a diplomatic position?????
That's right RONALD REAGAN.
So, do you mean to say that Ronald Reagan supports terrorist sympathizers???? BECAUSE.......I take offense to that
. He was a great man and I will not stand here and let you say that possibly the greatest man ever to walk this Earth was a terrorist sympathizer.
(see.....I can do it too)

I also agree that Reagan was one of the greatest presidents in modern history. I wish he were here to fix this economic mess. But he isn't.

Demanding that the speaker shut up and the station manager never allow him on again. How is that not a restriction of rights? How is that not the same as asking someone to take a book off the shelf to make it unavailable? It's the same as censorship!
The CAC, Chicago Annenberg Challenge, was just a venue that fostered the Ayers-Obama relationship.
