When Obamatots trash these two concerned citizens with vile language and personal attacks for simply espousing their own political views about this presidential campaign, they  are exhibiting ugly, reprehensible traits of fascism.  cristi and ricki have EVERY right to speak their mind and to vote how they see fit. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I am a PROUD puma member myself and I want nothing to be associated with the likes of Obama, his supporters or the DNC.  and I will NEVER vote for bo period.  WHY???????????? because....&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;1) OBAMA is a RACIST! anyone who attends and financially supports a church that promotes black supremacy and hatred of white america is a RACIST! furthermore, bo  also had this church's sick, perverted pastor marry him AND baptize his children. read bo's own books and you'll see how much Obama despises the white blood that courses through his veins.... racism of any kind is UNACCEPTABLE in a presidential candidate.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;2) OBAMA sympathizes with TERRORISTS! the Obots need to do some homework and investigate their candidate's relationship with convicted domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. Obama didn't just meet him in the neighborhood. Ayers, someone who wishes he had set MORE bombs, launched Obama's political career, and also served for years on the same board of a foundation with Obama.  they need to investigate Obama's advisors and funders - James Zobgy, who has financially supported and is tied to groups such as Hamas. Investigate Rashid Khalidi...and many others.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;question.....why does this charlatan lie about being BORN a muslim and attending MADRASSAS for several years of his childhood?  if he wants to say he converted to christianity, that's totally fine, but he IS a former muslim.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;3) Obama is CORRUPT!  he lied on national tv saying he only knew tony rezko from 5 hours of work at his lawfirm. but noooooooooooooooo, come to find out bo and tony go back 20 YEARS!  his campaign claimed tony only raised a couple thousand dollars for bo's campaign. but noooooooooooooooooo that number kept jumping to $16,000, $60,000, $150,000 then to $250,000. and don't forget his sweet real estate deal tony concocted to help bo buy his mansion.   &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;4) Obama is UNQUALIFIED and doesn't know what the heck he's doing. look at his stance on FISA, NAFTA, public campaign financing, the IRAQ WAR.  he flip flops on every issue, says ANYTHING to whatever audience he's talking to and blatantly LIES whenever it suits him.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;these are absolute DEAL BREAKERS for me....and I voted Clinton, Gore and even boring Kerry. I will NEVER vote for a joke like Obama.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8827428839859747629/6037577414931604471/comments/default/8123077966260979784'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8827428839859747629/6037577414931604471/comments/default/8123077966260979784'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cristiadkins.blogspot.com/2008/07/huffington-post-is-new-white-trash.html?showComment=1216345620000#c8123077966260979784' title=''/><author><name>nomeansno</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03193672848406759048</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://cristiadkins.blogspot.com/2008/07/huffington-post-is-new-white-trash.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827428839859747629.post-6037577414931604471' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8827428839859747629/posts/default/6037577414931604471' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827428839859747629.post-4794999221918432224</id><published>2008-07-17T18:18:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-17T18:18:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Martha said...
