Amazing how fast the left hit machine works.

Been the nominee for just a few days and we are getting video after video and story after story about her and her past.

Meanwhile Obama was a candidate for over a year before the media realized that he went to a church ran by a crazy minister, even though the tapes of Wright had been circulated that entire year...


And you wonder why the right complains of media bias.

This is why the parties used to vet their candidates. O'Donnell is a stellar example of all that is wrong with the primary system.

You are right about the primary system.

Sadly the Democrat vetting process in 2008 turned out to be "he is a black man who doesn't sound like a black man" :swoon: and not much else.

What's crazy is that they'll never realize that if they took a step back and looked at her rationally, she's so batshit insane that only batshit insane people think she's OK. Most Americans aren't that way.

However, they're so stuck into this "look for somebody completely opposite of what we have" mentality that they can't rationalize it.

Trust me, I went through that with Jesse Ventura when I was 19. I thought he was pretty cool and "so different" from Norm Coleman. Little did I know the guy knew fuck-all about governing anything, let alone his mouth or mind. He destroyed MinDot and should be held liable for the MSP bridge collapse. He also should be held liable for gutting the higher education funding in MN since he gutted their budget to hand out a "tax rebate" which was nothing more than using the piggy bank while the market was hot in 2000-1.

What's even more sad is that I was 19 then, you have grown adults that refuse to use logic.

Re: Caribou Barbie, I heard that on here I think, I can't take the cred but I spread it around as much as possible.

Ya when I was young I did get swept up in the Reagen fever. I had been in this country for only 4 years and was getting close to my citizenship. Ultimately I take no blame for Reaganomics since my first vote ended up being his second term. By that point I was a little older and a little nuttier but saw the economic progress as reason enough to vote.

Slowly the savings and loan scandals broke and the seeds of deregulation were sown I began to see the underlying problems of what was my party.

Interesting that you should mention the MSP bridge collapse. Its amazing to me that the crumbling state of our infrastructure isnt a top 5 concern for the electorate. Sadly we are going to see these types of catastrophes growing in the coming years...

Ya I did some googling after after Callmejoe called me out and do remember seeing it. Losing sleep chronically for a few years does that you-young triplets...

LOL

I can't even tell if you're serious. You're saying that a republican admitting she's a witch is the same as Obama's minister (ie not Obama) saying some random shit? Really?

you say that as if Fox isn't the biggest TV news network and conservatives don't have an uber-stranglehold on talk radio. It blows my mind how you guys pretend like your news empire doesn't exist.

At least they are looking into actual things that happened instead of making shit up about "re-education camps" death panels and Obama being a Muslim, Kenyan.

It is not the content of the video it is the fact that the media pretty much ignored anything bad about Obama that was floating around.

Sean Hannity started talking about Rev Wright a year before the MSM got around to the story.

But now we are learning everything there is to know about O'Donnell within days of her winning the nomination.

BTW this is the same media that had people digging through the trash looking for anything bad about Palin, but again ignored anything negative about Obama until it was thrown in their face.

This thread is now about O'Donnell, Republican candidate for the US Senate. A total unknown until a month of out-of-state ads propelled her out of obscurity and into the nation's heart.

shens- Obama was the most thoroughly vetted nomiee in recent times. Most people ignored the Rev Wright spin since by the same token anyone attending Pat Robertson's church or even Billy Grahams church should suitably be smeaned. To most of us how we pray is a very personal thing and found it refreshing that he didnt wear it like a suit to suit his needs. You also clearly do not understand what it is like being a minority or especially black in Chicago. Socially, economically, or publicly.
I do agree that Sarah Palin did get slammed by the media when she broke but the reason she was was because nobody had ever heard of her before. She had a weekend of vetting at best and was basically vetted on the job.

So? Your media does the exact opposite, and goes further by plain making shit up (as i mentioned above). get over yourself. The "liberal media" is a fabrication you idiots created to justify just how biased and full of shit that fox/conservative talk radio are.

Im sure the "MSM" seems pretty liberal in relation to what you think is conservative.

What's even worse, you idiots will support someone JUST BECAUSE THE MEDIA WENT AFTER THEM.

That's the ONLY reason that Sarah Palin even has a following!

You idiots think the media and the government have these secret self-perpetuating agenda's. News-flash, large corporate interests control ALL of what we're fed from either side. They control what the government does. They have you tards focused on "the government" when the ones MANIPULATING the government are the ones we should be concerned with.

Wars? War on Drugs? Healthcare bill? subsidies? all of these things, despite being supported by different sides, have one thing in common CORPORATE WELFARE.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!

Bet you could tell us:

What Barack Obama's middle name is?
Who were his parents?
What city and state he was born in?
Where he grew up?
Where he went to school as a kid?
Where he went to college?
What jobs he took after college?
etc.

:D

Thats not true. If you think that its easier because hes black I would ask you to look at the real world where things are much harder for black people.

Its funny, O'Donnell wins the primary, with a high chance of winning in November, and almost immediately, various 'groups' begin to tear her down. Sad, is it? People complain about the status quo, but when someone comes along with the prospect to change the system, they get attacked.

Do you have a source for this assertion outside the O'Donnell campaign or the Tea Party faithful?

Since Sean Hannity and Fox News constantly ran stories of Obama not being a citizen seems like a wash to me. You have very little to bitch about.

I think the main issue with her is:

1) Work background: How is she supporting herself if she only made $5,800 from 3/2009 - 6/2010? She's never been married so who is supporting her and why isn't she disclosing how she is paying her bills? Why would someone want a person who's never had a real job to fix the Delaware/US economy?

2) Educational background: Why did it take her 9 years to pay the judgement she owed to her college Farleigh Dickinson (filed in 1994, she paid it in 2003); isn't it the same "charge it now, pay it later" mentality that tanked our economy? Also, why did it take her 16 years to finish an English BA and only do it this year when she knew her background would be scrutinized?

3) Blatant Lying: Saying she beat Biden in 2 counties which was obviously as false as saying the sky isn't blue, and saying she went to grad school in her lawsuit against ISI.

4) Religious issues: She claims to be a Christian and against mastrbtion/pre-marital sex but she's never been married. So she's a real life 41 year old virgin? I'd love to see someone ask her that.

5) Irrationality: In a debate last week, she claims that there is more evidence that God created the earth in 6 days than there is for the theory of natural selection. While I am a believer in creationism, even I admit that there isn't ANY evidence that God created the Earth in 6 days other than the Bible.

...and how trite, juvenile and gleefully rabid they can be. Pathetic.

I could care less if she is a pagan or not, having known several, the main issue I have with her is if she used her campaign account as her personal checking account, which is illegal.

Perhaps you should then start a new thread on serious campaign issues rather than trying to divert this thread into something meaningful.


FWIW, while candidate O'Donnell said she "dabbled into witchcraft", she specifically claimed to have picnicked on a "Satanic Altar". No mention of simple Wiccans, she went hardcore with the Satanists...
