    I will tell you this. I am a reluctant Obama supporter but if this comes out before the election as a ploy and Obama's grandmother isn't sick. I will personally campaign for McCain, donate money to McCain's campaign, denounce Obama as being the worst kind of politician possible both here online and publically. If it comes out after the election I will make sure to vote Republican for the Federal races in 2010 and 2012.

    I think it takes a particular brand of narcism and ruthlessness to run for President but I honestly have a hard time buying that Obama, or McCain for that matter, would do something like that.

    This thread is terrible, OMR. Shame on you.

    For all the talk about liberal dominance and poo-flinging here, liberals don't do this stuff here.

    This is terrible. You should be ashamed.

    Here's a tip, OMR:

    If even Drudge won't post it, it's conspiratorial made-up stuff.

    As soon as there's a hint it's true (or even truthy), it will make his site.

    But you changed the subject. You don't owe an apology if your new, whacked out charge is true; you owe an apology for the OP.

    That was some truly bad stuff.

    LOL. Nothing has stopped McCain from running negative ads so why would he now when he's scrapping?

    Have you ever heard of the word propaganda?You just seem to pull these dumb conspiracy theory stories out your anus, and you are to old for that.

    Why am I not surprised you don't understand the concept either? Like making people think about the way they chose to discuss things is such a crime. You are a joke. I suggest you fix things up in your own house before complaining about mine, LL.


    "ABORTION ABORTION ABORTION

    MURDER MURDER MURDER

    Have I won the argument yet?"


    If you're too ignorant to understand what kind of deception that is, then it's not my problem.

    But since I'm a nice guy, I guess I'll help you out

    It's funny how two threads in the same day can sum this board up just perfectly. In one, you have liberals denouncing the "shots fired" at the McCain campaign bus and in this thread, you have conservatives criticizing Obama for how he's going about getting to his ill grandmother and even saying it's a lie.

    :D This thread is cracking me up! I can't help it.

    Sad news about Obama's grandma, no matter what party you belong to.


    BUT....when I go through the posts and read the discussions about someone or a panda named LING LING, I can't help from laughing.


    I don't understand what ling Ling is...still.

    OMR... about questioning the sincerity of Obama's move, don't be an ass.

    Look at the campaign thus far. McCain has already been negative, and lately that's all he's been. Obama has never shied away from it, and even dared McCain to say the Ayers stuff to his face.

    McCain whimped out in person and gave some sort of half-ass mention, while stating that he didn't care about Ayers as a washed up terrorist.

    Once that happened, Obama set the record straight and told McCain to his face that doing all that negative crap said more about McCain's campaign than it did about Obama.

    Obama came out and told McCain about people at McCain/Palin rallies saying things like "terrorist" and "kill him". Obama isn't scared of McCain's lame negative attacks. He welcomes them because they make McCain look worse and worse.

    And since you don't know a thing about what's going on with Obama's family, who are you to question it?

    I share your cynicism of politicians, but Obama has been on the campaign trail for quite some time and hasn't done any flaky stunts like this before. If he had pulled some earlier erratic stunt like "suspending" his campaign for the economic crisis, I'd be skeptical too. But for the most part, his campaign has steady as she goes.

    Nonsense. The libs are the same party that turned Paul Wellstone's funeral into an anti-Republican political rally. Did you not see libs around here celebrating Strom Thurmond's passing? Why, yes you did! Did you see libs around here high-fiving and whoopin it up over Jesse Helms' death? Why, yes you did! OOPSIE DAISY.

    Nice try Bats, but once again you are shamed.
