Like to cherrypick what's convenient, pickel?

Did any of you clowns watch the video ??? The lady was actually comparing McBush to Bush in a complimentary manner.

"And all I did was carry a sign that said McCain = Bush," Kreck said. "And for everyone who voted for Bush, I don't see why it's offensive to say McCain = Bush."

How much paranoia is in the Republican camp ??? I guess if McBush is elected the First Amendment will be his top priority for deletion from the Constitution.
Just an Old, Tired, Senile man being lead by enterprising, ambitious, and unscrupulous politicos
for financial and strategic gain. Obombma isn't much better, but I feel that he won't crap out or get Alzheimer’s disease a week after the inauguration. The sign should read....

McCain = Jimmy Carter

(1) Karl (or perhaps Groucho) Marx is not the incumbent president of Obama's own party. (2) Nixon met with antiwar protesters:
Quote:
A week after the Kent State Shootings, on 4 May, 100,000 anti-war demonstrators converged on Washington, D.C. to protest the shooting of the students in Ohio and the Nixon administration's incursion into Cambodia. Even though the demonstration was quickly put together, protesters were still able to bring out thousands to march in the Capital. It was an almost spontaneous response to the events of the previous week. Police ringed the White House with buses to block the demonstrators from getting too close to the executive mansion. Early in the morning before the march, Nixon met with protesters briefly at the Lincoln Memorial but nothing was resolved and the protest went on as planned.

Republican paranoia? The Osama camp thinks he'll be mistaken for the Muslim that he is if he has photo-ops with women in Muslim headdresses behind him. Now that's paranoia. They know people think he's Muslim because of his name...it was a calculated move by his campaign - if anyone accepts their apology, they're dumb and deserve to have an idiot like him for president.

I'd rather have a tired, old man with Alzheimer's as president than Obama.

The Denver DNC office is private property and can pick and choose who is allowed in. When one has a public event on public property any member of the public, who is neither a security threat nor disruptive, has the right to attend.

What's clear is that the police were used to suppress a message that the McCain people didn't want known. Ironically, if she was let in, it would all be over. Now, it's in the national news and widely reported.

Your own statement demonstrates that it is most definitely not paranoia. Sometimes the depths of your stupidity amaze me, young man.

No way. Obama doesn't hate dogs like Muslims.

AKC has recommended a Chihuhua for McBush, but will have to be smuggled across the border and taught to respond to English commands before entering the White House ifin' McBush wins ( FAT CHANCE)

American Kennel Club Offers Suggestions For Obama's New 'Number Two'

AKC Selects Short List of "Canine Candidates" and Enlists America's Help to Choose the Right Dog Breed for the Obama Family @ American Kennel Club - Vote 2008 - Presidential Pup Survey

New York, NY – Vice President isn't the only high-level position that Barack Obama is currently trying to fill. It's been widely reported that – win or lose – the Obamas have promised their two daughters a dog after the presidential election. With 158 breeds registered by the American Kennel Club® (AKC®) – each with its own unique temperament, coat type, size, energy level and appearance – the search for a canine cabinet member is on.

"Deciding what breed to get is as important as deciding whether to get a dog in the first place," says AKC spokesperson Lisa Peterson. "The first step in being a responsible pet owner is to do some serious and careful research to determine which breed of dog is right for you and your family."

The Obama family will be adding a dog to their household for the first time, but according to an Associated Press survey Republican Presidential nominee John McCain and his wife already have 24 pets, including four dogs. The "McCain canines" are an English Springer Spaniel named Sam, two Yorkshire Terriers named Lucy and Desi, and a mixed-breed named Coco. Making up the rest of McCain's menagerie are a cat, two turtles, a ferret, three parakeets and 13 saltwater fish.

As for a breed for the Obamas, the AKC has scoured all of the "canine candidates" to assess each breed's credentials as potential "first pet." Choices were narrowed significantly due to their daughters' allergies. Therefore, AKC experts made the selection from their list of hypoallergenic breeds

I think it is absolutely funny and not funny haha funny sad how people pick and choose what they want to see and believe. There is no diff. in these situations between obama and Mc. both need to separate themselves from certain groups / ideas / what have you in order to gain enough votes to get into office.
