“…Despite [Sarah Palin’s] nice turn on Saturday Night Live, she has turned toxic for the McCain camp. Palin’s cheery good looks–and her gun-toting, Bible-thumping small-town conservatism–electrified the Republican convention and temporarily transfixed the “mainstream” media… Intentionally or not, Palin’s stark and strident approach may be hurting McCain with the hard-right by vividly reminding them of what they expect a real conservative to sound like. This week she broke with her ticketmate to say that she favors a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage. In moments like these, her ideological certainty makes him look soft.” [Newsweek]
“Toxic.”

Hello men-sor. We know who Barak Hussein O’Bama is. He is a bi-racial American man, raised by his mother and her parents. He worked hard, studied and earned a slot in law school based on his own merits.
He apparently is willing to (much like Christ) forgive people for their earlier transgressions and allow them to prove themselves. Who would have thought the concept was at least 2000 years old. Unlike another presidential who graduated at the bottom of his class, and who also has no executive experience, he has proven himself to be thoughtful, steady, and willing to examine the issues in depth. In short to answer your question “Who is Barak Hussein Obama,” he is the person America needs to guide us out of this shithole the conservative Republicans and conservative Democrats have pulled us into.

Unfortunately for Sarah Palin, “ideological certainty” is all she’s got. Her vitriol from the stump is quickly turning into McCarthyism, where some are pro-America and others are anit-America. You know which side you are on by who you’re going to vote for.
I predict she stabs McCain in the back within a week after losing the election, setting herself up to run for President in four years.

Who is John Sidney McCain III?
Like George W. Bush, he is third generation in a prestigious family who was a complete f*ck-up and only got as far as he did through nepotism:
Family saved him from being kicked out of military school.
Family saved him from losing pilot’s license after crashing several planes.
John McCain started his political career as a lobbyist for the military and successful got millions of dollars of pork added to a bill during the Carter administration.

John McCain’s second wife bought him a house in Arizona in a district that had an opening so he could run for political office.
McCain’s early political career was funded by Charles Keating–a man who was convicted of stealing people’s retirement funds and was sent to prison.
John McCain used his political power to keep his wife Cindy out of jail after she got caught stealing drugs from a charity she worked for.
John McCain has spent his entire career putting a stop to any investigation into American MIAs that are still believed to be alive in Vietnam

John McCain picked Sarah Palin as his running mate. Sarah Palin believes in witchcraft, teaching creationism in schools, charging rape victims for DNA testing kits, and forcing teenagers pregnant through incest and rape to give birth. Palin’s husband Todd, was involved in the Alaskan separatist movement until 2002, which wants to have Alaska leave the United States and become it’s own country.
John McCain has employed every sleezy GOP tactic for his 2008 Presidential bid that he denounced in 2000 Presidential bid. He has even hired the same people who slimed him in 2000.

Who is “Men-sor” or is it “Men-sar”? According to his posting on Towleroad yesterday, he believes that gays are “faggots” who should accept that they are inferior to straights.
In other words, he’s just another self-hating homosexual who wants other gays to live miserable lives like him.
P.S. http://www.towleroad.com/2008/10/sarah-palin-voi.html
Men-sar got booted off Towleroad yesterday and his comments were deleted. You can read the reactions to his posting.

Well done Marco Hussein Channing.
The scary part of Sarah Palin is that in 4 years, regardless of who is elected in 2008, she will be the presumptive Republican front runner for the presidential nomination. Unless someone can prove who built her house in Alaska (the same people who have been buying Ted Stevens for years).
