(Just The One...)
Warming up the crowd at a Sarah Palin rally in Cape Guradeau, the Republican highlighted Barack Obama's love for liberal judges, including those who support "the gay." Taking the stage as one of the pre-program speakers at a Sarah Palin rally here in Rush Limbaugh’s hometown, [Bond], fired up the crowd by warning them about Barack Obama’s judicial philosophy. And no sane person would want a judge with a heart. That would be blasphemous. |

Homo-journo Bil Browning raised a justifiable stink this week after Indiana's Democratic party funded state Represenative Andy Schemenaur's anti-gay flier, which touted the politico's commitment to "traditional" family values. |
» Wow.
"Amanda Jones, 109, the daughter of a man born into slavery, has lived a life long enough to touch three centuries. And after voting consistently as a Democrat for 70 years, she has voted early for the country's first black presidential nominee. … Amanda Jones' father urged her to exercise her right to vote, despite discriminatory practices at the polls and poll taxes meant to keep black and poor people from voting. Those practices were outlawed for federal elections with the 24th Amendment in 1964, but not for state and local races in Texas until 1966." [Statesman via SH] |

Because [McCain] knows that his economic theories don’t work, he’s spending these last few days calling me every name in the book. I don’t know what’s next. By the end of the week, he’ll be accusing me of being a secret communist because I shared my toys in kindergarten. I shared my, uh, peanut butter and jelly sandwich. McCain's camp responded by implying Obama's rubber and they are, in fact, glue. |

Those skinheads who were allegedly hatching a plot to kill Barack Obama and eighty-eight other black people? They also hate gays. And why wouldn't they? [Arkansas News] |
» "Deplorable."
More racist grossness, kids: "University of Kentucky police are investigating who hung an effigy of Democrat Sen. Barack Obama from a tree on the Lexington campus Wednesday morning. UK President Lee Todd, after a press conference Wednesday, said that UK police have notified federal authorities of the incident… UK police took down the effigy and have it as evidence, Todd said. He called the act "deplorable" and says that type of behavior is not tolerated on UK's campus." [Pol Watchers] |

Barack Obama took a double-shot at John McCain's campaign today. This commercial, entitled "His Choice," first highlights Republican McCain's repeated admissions that he's not that great with the economy. Those policy decisions, he once said, will be made by his vice-president, which leads to the titular line and a shot of Sarah Palin winking. Vice-presidential candidates aren't typically attacked in campaign ads, but apparently Obama thinks that Palin, with her scads of bad press, is a ripe target. Fair enough, although we have to admit this advert left a bit of a bad taste in our mouth. It's not simply the fact that Palin's painted as a bit of a dolt, a sentiment with which we agree, but that she's presented as a dismissive character, not an attitude to take with only the second female running mate in American history. But, what do we know? We're not campaign managers… |

The interview, combined with the highly anticipated(?) 30 minute infomercials Obama bought time for on NBC, Fox, and CBS tomorrow, means that ABC is the only major network (besides the CW, which only counts if you are voting Chuck Bass for prez) not featuring anything Obama related in their prime-time lineup. So what possible reason is there for ABC not airing a Barack-tastic Wednesday? |

While the vice-presidential nominee went on a crazy cat lady rant about how Obama's policies would make it so that the things a person buys aren't theirs (a lie, by the way), one of her supporter's decided to cut the chit chat and get right to the heart of the matter: "he's a nigger!" Palin says nothing of the slur, a move that's cowardly at best and a tacit agreement at worst. |

Janet Porter, the right-winger who "cast" a news report from a dystopic post-Obama future, has sunk to even lower depths of insane evil. Rather than beating around the bush, so to speak, Porter recently wrote that people who vote for Obama will burn in hell: "To all those who name the name of Christ who plan to willfully disobey Him by voting for Obama, take warning. Not only is our nation in grave danger, according to the Word of God, so are you … [T]his election is not about race. It's not about the economy. It's about obeying God." [RWW] |

"Federal prosecutors in Tennessee have charged two men with plotting a "killing spree" against African-Americans that would have been capped with an attempt to kill Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama. The U.S. attorney's office in Jackson, Tennessee, said Daniel Cowart, 20, and Paul Schlesselman, 18, were self-described white supremacists who met online through a mutual friend."

It is a lavender-tinged dystopia, of course: The Bible can no longer be freely preached over radio or television stations when the subject matter includes such ‘offensive’ doctrines as criticizing homosexual behavior.” Well, if that's the case, we're definitely voting for Obama! |
