First salvo of what will be the ugliest election in modern history.

I expect to see a LOT of this kind of stuff.

I hope so. I was hoping the dem primary would get a lot dirtier than it did. If the repubs dont learn to stop bringing a knife to a gun fight, they’ll always be on the outside looking in. The dems are street fighters and the sooner the repubs learn that the better.

I loved the Cubian Republician who said, “I know its fake,but its relaity.” They ought to know a Marxists when they see one.

The only Presidential candidate that I saw take a stand on Cuba on the “Issues” portion of their web site was…

Mike Huckabee

I wish he still had his http://www.mikehuckabee.com site up (it now redirects to HuckPAC). I didn’t understand at first why he had that up there as an issue…but then Fidel stepped down and it all made sense.

Paraphrasing, Huckabee said that he would not normalize relations with Cuba until they implemented:
1) Freedom of Speech
2) Free Elections
3) Free Enterprise
I may not have that exactly right, but it’s the best I can do given that I haven’t looked at that page in over 2 months…

a doctored photo, like a doctored “100 years in Iraq” line, thats been lied about for weeks and weeks, but thats ok, since McCain don’t need them USA votes.

This site needs fewer doctored photos of Castro and more real photos of Mary-Katharine Ham and Amanda Carpenter.

Obama and his misses will do more against race relations in this country, than many combined in a long time. It’s just begun.

I predict uber politicking. Barry dumps Michelle. She’s a liability. He goes gay. Renounces Christianity. Declares himself the lone survivor of Easter Island.

Next stop. Neo-humaniod android chimera. Although, perhaps he tweaks some DNA to carve the path for the return of the centaurs.

An if it was a doctored pic of GW or Mac. . .

Then it would be funny and we need to get over it.

What do Hamas and Fidel Castro have in common? Both passionately hate the U.S., dream of its destruction, and want whatever will make the U.S. weaker.

Both also want to see Obama elected President of the U.S.

It has nothing to do with race.

People (of all colors) who care about this country’s future will not be voting for Obama.

Don’t you see? It is racist of whites not to comply with the perception of how a few people view it as racists, even if the few people are also white (I think). It is really a double-whammy somehow or another.

BTW, that video was LOL funny. The Cuban guy’s saying that’s how people think in Cuba and it’s the REALITY, the white lady driving the car saying if it is from a REPUBLICAN then it’s wrong, and the finale of the black lady that will “do her own homework” (which means find out what Michelle Obama thinks).

Racist? Please.

You oughta see what Cubans were Photoshopping on top of that “newspaper” when those photos first came out.

The people running around calling all criticism of Obama racist can’t follow voters into the voting booth. Never underestimate the passive-aggressiveness of voters.

Repeating what I’ve commented on HA before, Obama and his misses will do more against race relations in this country, than many combined in a long time. It’s just begun.

I agree. Its all about race, and criticism of Obama is de facto racist and therefore illegitimate.

The reporters outrage that it’s a “fake picture” is obnoxious. Where is the evidence of intent to pass it off as a “real photo”? It’s frickin’ satire. Now if you think this is beneath major political parties and should be only done by PACs or blogs, then you can have a discussion about that… but for that reporter to treat it like he’s exposing a hoax? Retarded.

Many of you are guilty of the unpardonable sin…namely saying the name of the one who cannot be spoken of. To be properly reverant you must write his surname thusly..OB_MA. You may pronounce it OBMA. His full name is written…BA_ACK HUS_EIN OB_MA pronounced phonetically as BA( as in a sheep’s call), ACK (like when you’re working up a giant lugie), HUS (as in the first sylable of the word hussy) EIN (as in the German word for one) OBMA. To do this shows proper respect to the newest god and will prevent you from being branded a racist.

I never thought that simply voting could make you racist.

I welcome our new ballot overlords.

If Feudalism is the system of government for landed people, what is the ism government for the intellectually minded people?

I’m so ready to just hand government over to the intellectuals to see how they operate in real world environment.

A theory: The emphasis on racism this election season will not help Obama one bit. White folks are rather sick of cries of racism, and I think it will drive many ~~to the polls~~ straight into the arms of McCain.

This election is historical. Never before have so many been accused of racism with so little cause. Never before have so many been thrown under the the bus so quickly and with no remorse. Never before have so many positions been changed while he who changes denies anything has changed and his followers don’t have a clue what happened. I have always loved history.

On the bright side, if the word gets overused that much, it will become meaningless and people will no longer turn into bumbling, backpedaling idiots every time someone uses the accusation of racism to avoid debating an issue.

Hey, don’t try to confuse their nice tidy little racial groups by bringing in facts. Cuban = Hispanic and that’s that!
