100,000 Turn Out For Obama Rally In St. Louis Today

[Buddy Holly]

It amazes me when you post these goons being racist at the rallies. You have been part of the crowd that will call Palin anything under the sun. She is getting far worse than whatever weaksauce lib s cry about when their BFF comes under fire.

The funny part is not only are you (not you) calling people racist, you're also taking their money That will be quite the combination.

How is bashing Palin for not being intelligent for being a liar and for whatever else, how does that even compare to racism?

Oh, you're just a tremendous moron. I get it.

I guess it is time for McCain to start campaigning with Sarah again.

I don't believe Obama will solve racism in this country, not by a long shot.

That's what you insinuated in your earlier post. You said Obama will treat racism like the Civil Rights movement and expose it. That's what I called you out on.

What I do believe is that Obama is the type of leader that can help unite this fractured country. We are seeing proof of that with his record crowds and fund raising dollars.

Crowds and fund raising dollars don't have anything to do with solving racism. And those facts alone don't mean much. Bush raised a whole heap of money and you don't strike me as one of his biggest fans. And there are a lot of horrible individuals that drew much bigger crowds . . .

His message may not be working on you, but there are a of a lot of people in this country that are inspired by him and what he stands for.

It must be "working" on me if I'm voting for him. I just don't see what he's going to do to solve racism.

I personally believe that how a candidate runs his/her campaign is a telling sign of how they will govern. Even you must admit that Obama's campaign is relatively tame in comparison to what we've seen in the last few decades from both parties.

Actually, no it's not. He's had his share of attack ads. And every move McCain makes, Obama is right there is hit him with the Bush hammer. Kerry and Gore ran much more "tame" campaigns.

Now I personally don't believe Obama is some sort of messiah or savior. In fact I really don't believe many Obama supporters really do view him in that light.

If you don't see it, then you probably aren't qualified to say whether that's how you view him.

My support mainly comes from the books and writings of his I have read in the last few years. This is a man whose beliefs and views about this world resonate very deeply with my own. I do feel a profound connection to his words that I honestly haven't felt with any candidate in my lifetime. If this makes me an "Obama " or whatever you like to throw out than so be it.

That doesn't specifically make you an Obama . I would like to know Obama's plan to expose racism, though. That's an outlandish claim that should be addressed.

Thanks.

Your problem timVP is that you insinuate and ASSume things that don't exist.

You assume I'm Middle Eastern because I made mention of how the McCain campaign is using the notion that Obama is a Muslim and Arab as a slur. Funny that Colin Powell made that exact same point today on MTP, does that make him a Middle Easterner? According to your ed up logic apparently yes.

You also insinuated that somehow I believe Obama will single-handedly solve racism in this country, I never said that. What I do believe is that having positive black role models in positions of power is a good thing for this country, but that is a far cry from saying it will solve racial tensions.

To sum it up, Obama to me isn't the ideal candidate. But he's the best one we got out of all the choices that are left. If he governs from a mindset and belief system that is indicated in his books and writings I think this country will be headed in the right direction. If he takes direction from Pelosi and Reid and becomes a rubber stamp, may God help us all. Lucky for us, I don't think he will.

Actually, no. I figured out you were Middle Eastern because you went on some Bush rant about how he perpetuated hate against Middle Easterners. And the more you bring it up out of the blue, the more I know I'm right.

Funny that Colin Powell made that exact same point today on MTP, does that make him a Middle Easterner?

Powell didn't make anything close to the same point. Go watch it again and remember your rant was based on W and also remember that not all Muslims are from the Middle East.

You also insinuated that somehow I believe Obama will single-handedly solve racism in this country, I never said that.

How about scrolling back and reading what you said about Obama. Remember the whole "expose racism like they did the South" emo rant? Remember the questions I've been trying to get you to answer for the last couple pages of this thread?

What I do believe is that having positive black role models in positions of power is a good thing for this country, but that is a far cry from saying it will solve racial tensions.

Then why did you bring it up as a reason to vote for Obama? And it's pretty damn shallow to be voting for someone partly due to race. Race shouldn't enter into the equation when voting for president.

Tell that to whottt...

[Tully365]

yep son ... you gotta be careful on here with all of these blind Obama sheep around. don't you dare say ANYTHING negative towards their Messiah or his worshipers or you WILL be labeled a racist!!!

the OFFICIAL BRHORNET45 "lets make peace" thread
sons I think we have all said some things that were uncalled for over the last few months debating this election. I first want to offer my apologies to anyone that I may have offended with some of my comments. god bless

[Tully365]

Truthfully, if I thought Obama was a naive pushover who doesn't know the tricks to his own trade, I wouldn't feel confident voting for him.

Are you going to vote in this election?

[TheMadHatter]

Actually, no. I figured out you were Middle Eastern because you went on some Bush rant about how he perpetuated hate against Middle Easterners. And the more you bring it up out of the blue, the more I know I'm right.

The worst thing about you is your arrogance. You assume because you are a moderator that your words should hold more weight than anyone elses. I hate to break it to you kid, they don't.

You are no different than the Bill O' Reilly's and Sean Hannity's of the world. You scream your same misguided points over and over again as if they mean anything. What's hilarious is how wrong you are about my ethnicity and how you continue to bring it up like you know for certain. It's the epitome of hard-headedness and arrogance, it's no wonder you like George Bush.

And yes Colin Powell made the EXACT same argument I did in the post you keep referencing. My point was that this Bush administration and now the McCain campaign have made being an Arab or Muslim an inherently bad thing. This is the EXACT same argument that Powell made.

Thanks for playing. It's really starting to get tiring owning your pathetic moronic ass. Like I said, stick to basketball.

[Shastafarian]

This is whottt level stupid. Congrats.

The sharper remarks and tone came as McCain appeared before a weekday crowd of 2,000 in this suburb north of St. Louis, where Obama drew 100,000 on Saturday......
