Obama Warning!!! Warning!!! Warning!!! Fear Card!!! Fear Card!!! Fear Card!!!

[Thunderdog]

Quote from Yannis:

Well, leave it to a Democrat to misdirect the readers, again:

1. Clearly the quote is corerct, Laura's message is solid, Obama is inept wrt foreign policy.

2. The rest of your quote is taken out of context too - what we did or did not do with the Soviet Union has nothing to do with our dealings with terrorist states like Iran and Syria. Not to mention that it was a Republican President (Reagan) who defeated the Soviets too.

3. C'mon now, drop that democratic propaganda, pretending to be angry as you take another opportunity to blame the Republicans... after all, I am an Independent. It is Obama who insists on quoting the 100 years comment after so many people on both sides told him that he is misquoting McCain and that he should stop taking him out of context. Unfortunately, it's a slugfest, friend, deal with it. BUT, Laura's quote is correct!

1. Your quote was incomplete. You truncated it in the middle of his full remark. You tried to make a point out of context of his full remark and actual point.

2. "My" quote was Obama's full comment, therefore, it is entirely in context of what he said -- by definition. There is a video clip of his entire speech in the link I provided in my prior post. (Do you even know what "context" means?)

3. You are unreal. Literally.

It was Laura's quote and it is complete - read it again, look at those ... at the end

Your quote is no more complete, only bigger

Just pinched myself... yup - I'm real!

You may smile at your intellectual dishonesty if you wish. However, I think it's rather sad.

Hypocrisy on Hamas

I asked: "Do you think that American diplomats should be operating the way they have in the past, working with the Palestinian government if Hamas is now in charge?"

McCain answered: "They're the government; sooner or later we are going to have to deal with them, one way or another, and I understand why this administration and previous administrations had such antipathy towards Hamas because of their dedication to violence and the things that they not only espouse but practice, so . . . but it's a new reality in the Middle East. I think the lesson is people want security and a decent life and decent future, that they want democracy. Fatah was not giving them that."

-----------

McCain is Mr. Magoo incarnate.

What I think you fail to acknowledge, TDog, is that Obama's words were designed and chosen to misdirect the audience, to make them forget that Bush is right, terrorists should be dealt with as terrorists, and that he (Obama) is still too naive and will be dangerous in foreign affairs. It is he who was being dishonest and Laura caught the essence of this misstatement.

But, that's alright, no harm done, we look at this from different points of view.

No need to offend each other, just post your thoughts on the subject, that's what I try to do, and have a little fun doing it.

Obama on the record in 2008. "They don’t pose a serious threat to us the way the Soviet Union posed a threat to us."

Obama on the record in 2004: "With the Soviet Union, you did get the sense that they were operating on a model that we could comprehend in terms of, they don’t want to be blown up, we don’t want to be blown up, so you do game theory and calculate ways to contain,” Obama said. “I think there are certain elements within the Islamic world right now that don’t make those same calculations."

Pabst will go record. Anyone who votes for Barrack Obama is a stupid, anti-American, socialist leaning pos. Obama is a duplicitous, lying scumbag. Nothing personal. Of course.

Quote from Thunderdog:

Leave it to a Republican to take a comment out of context. Here's the full text in context:

"Strong countries and strong Presidents talk to their adversaries. That’s what Kennedy did with Khrushchev. That’s what Reagan did with Gorbachev. That’s what Nixon did with Mao. I mean, think about it: Iran, Cuba, Venezuela — these countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union. They don’t pose a serious threat to us the way the Soviet Union posed a threat to us. And yet we were willing to talk to the Soviet Union at the time when they were saying, ‘We’re going to wipe you off the planet.’ And ultimately, that direct engagement led to a series of measures that helped prevent nuclear war and over time allowed the kind of opening that brought down the Berlin Wall.”

Is it a genetic predisposition that you Republicans can't at least quote your adversaries in proper context and argue on the merits of your position? Must you always use misinformation to advance your position? Is it beyond your capability to play fair so that the voting public can make an informed decision? Or is that unthinkable?

Dog, I try to remember that the Republican voting strength has, in more recent years, been vested in the barely educated class, comprised as it is, mainly of Fried Chicken Franchise folks, and religious nuts, or others of that ilk. The few who can read and write beyond the junior high level, and therefore delight in posting their I.Q scores here on ET, are Republicans only because they recognize what easy marks their less educated comrades are, and like the teenage bully who knocks a geriatric grandmother to the street and steals her purse, relish in stealing from the politically naive, using all manner of lies and half-truths to do so.

Obama warns seniors on Social Security

By MIKE GLOVER


GRESHAM, Ore. (AP) - Hours before being greeted by the biggest crowd of his campaign, Democrat Barack Obama quietly told a small group of seniors Sunday that Republican John McCain would threaten the Social Security they depend on because he supports privatizing the program. (italics mine)

I would like to know if it is true that John McCain supports (or favors) privatizing Social Security?

Privatizing Social Security is an absolutely horrible idea. If McCain would even consider such, that alone is enough reason not to vote for him.

May these remarks reflect appropriately on the one posting them!
