Its getting close to Nov 4th and you guys are getting desperate. Cant wait to see what crap you bring up next. Anything to avoid the economy or Iraq and the immense damage your president did to our country I guess.

Character is one of the most important issues when it comes to a President.

Clinton had all kinds of character issues and they popped up through out his Presidency.

And I don't think anyone would excuse Nixon's character flaws either.

Most of the 'character issue' threads deal with who Obama has chosen to associate himself with through his career. The people he associates with say a lot more about who he really is than some slickly packaged campaign.

Also, the fact that Obama has such a short record means that the only way we can judge him is to look at his past, who he associates with, who he supports, the choices he has made etc. Everything about him in that regard suggests that he is a far left (for America) politician, and yet he has passed himself off as a main stream politician and the press has pretty much given him a pass.

Clinton's character flaw, singular, that was notable, involved his private sex life. The Republicans made it a 'federal issue'.

Nixon's character flaws involved things like abuse of power and violating civil rights. And criminal matters.

You say the people he associates with say so much about him. OK, put up or shut up, what do you know about Obama from it - who is Obama? You tell us. Not just 'it showed bad judgment' attacks that are hot aire, but tell us what you say his associations tell us about him - is he someone who wants to blow up the Pentagon because he's known Bill Ayers? Is he someone who will appoint a terrorist to his cabinet to blow up the Pentagon because he knew Bill Ayers? What can you say about Obama that's so important?

I am sure if you did a poll asking Americans if they'd trade last 8 years for 8 more years of Clinton running the country, it would not even be close, even if there were no clean cigars left in DC.

Exactly... when Clinton lied , no-one died. When Bush lied, 4000+ troops died, and 500 billion dollars is forever lost.

Nonsense. Almost all the press has done is talk about your talking points, while allowing McCain a pass on his own unsavory associations in the past. Your problem is that you've played this distraction game before, done nothing but play it all year, and the independents and swing voters aren't buying it anymore.

And no, the 50s weren't Happy Days for many in this country. Take your rose-colored blinders off.

Here we go again with right-wingers not understanding the idea of a comparison. They only think in black and white.

Except that in this election, it's McCain who has the history as an adulterer.

 

[jackschmittusa]

People like ProfJohn have taken a page from the right wing fundie playbook. The page explaining that you should only ever associate with people of like mind. Mingling with outsiders will contaminate your moral purity.

Next thing you know, he'll be on the next page of the playbook and point out that Obama once read a book that was un-American in tone, making him an enemy of the State. Or maybe he saw a pornographic image once that must surely have made him a pervert.

ZOMG, Yes!

The state mandated policies of the 1950's Jim Crow south that reached all the way down to drinking fountains, bathrooms, restaurants, civic buses, and schools, including laws that made miscegenation, inter-racial marriage, a state FELONY, were in NO way racially based, unlike in Nazi Germany.

Saying or even admitting otherwise would be "odd and inflammatory", yes! :roll:

you fucking repubs piss me the fuck off. there is no substance to this crap. go back to freerepublic.com and circle jerk yourselves

You should have as much character instead of being a character.

Is that because Dem's don't care about character?

Ever question why Obama has not made such radical statements the cornerstone of his campaign? He is selling himself as an agent of change...time will tell if he is a student of ideology, or a product of it.

 

[StageLeft]

Man you silly repugs are going to have four years of terrible nights, aren't you? Every morning waking up expecting to see that Obama has nationalized everything and all political dissent now punishable by death. Your fear blinds you and turns you into unthinking, reflexive beasts.

Or that you guys have none.

That's great stuff winnar. Just awesome. On behalf of Barack Obama, I'd like to give you the Obama Campaign Medal of Merit. This medal is awarded to the blooming idiot from the McCain Camp who successfully advances Obama's cause. A brief look at Intrade values, found here, http://www.intrade.com/jsp/int...ex.jsp?selConID=409933 , suggests you've been extremely successful in tarnishing the McCain brand. We salute your courage in the face of overwhelming losses of IQ points and electoral votes. Please keep up the good work, but don't check your pay envelope.

-Robert

The audio recording of Barack Obama espousing his socialist philosophy of ?redistribution of wealth? is all over the Internet and Fox News today (although the other media outlets are ignoring it), but there?s another disturbing section on that tape that has so far escaped notice.

At about 15:30, Obama compares what was going on in the United States during the time of Brown vs. the Board of Education to ... Nazi Germany. Yes, really. Here?s the quote:

?...just to take a, sort of a realist perspective...there?s a lot of change going on outside of the Court, um, that, that judges essentially have to take judicial notice of. I mean you?ve got World War II, you?ve got uh, uh, uh, the doctrines of Nazism, that, that we are fighting against, that start looking uncomfortably similar to what we have going on, back here at home.?
