"Complete with fancy production values like a camera mounted on a crane, The leader of the Nation of Islam refers to Barrack Obama as "the messiah" before a crowd of Black Muslims. See it yourself. But of course, do not judge Obama because he went to the Million Man March, or because his pastor of 20 years was a good pal of Farrakhan. And don't suppose that Farrakhan is more than just another guy in Barrack Obama's neighborhood on the Southside of Chicago."

Gee Nixie, why do you keep posting articles from the zioncon israel-firster American Thinker? These people could care less about america as long as we keep paying. Couldn't you find some real American jewish sources instead?

Turning the Tables on the Israel-Firsters
... The idea that there are U.S. citizens who have equal loyalties to the United States and Israel is passé. American Israel-firsters have long since dropped any pretense of loyalty to the United States and its genuine national interests. They have moved brazenly into the Israel first, last, and always camp. Sen. Joseph Lieberman, Norman Podhoretz, Victor Davis Hanson, the Rev. Franklin Graham, Alan Dershowitz, Rudy Giuliani, Douglas Feith, the Rev. Rod Parsley, Paul Wolfowitz, James Woolsey, Bill Kristol, the Rev. John Hagee, and the thousands of wealthy supporters of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) appear to care about the United States only so far as Washington is willing to provide immense, unending funding and the lives of young U.S. service personnel to protect Israel. These individuals and their all-for-Israel journals – Commentary, National Review, the Weekly Standard, and the Wall Street Journal – amount to nothing less than a fifth column intent on involving 300 million Americans in other peoples' religious wars, making them pay and bleed to protect a nation in which the United States has no genuine national security interest at stake....
...The Israel-firsters started the Iraq war and now have the United States locked into an occupation of that country that may not end in any of our lifetimes. Unless Americans ignore the likes of Hanson, Podhoretz, Lieberman, Woolsey, and Wolfowitz, the cost in blood and treasure will ultimately bankrupt America. ..
American voters must start using the democratic process to begin removing themselves from the religious war known as the Arab-Israeli conflict. Disengagement will take time, hard work, and a steadfast commitment to the rule of law. Three actions are well within the voters' capability, and their use would bring pressure on federal officials to stop killing America's children in wars between Arabs and Israelis.-

1. Voters should press federal representatives to end taxpayer funding for the National Endowment for Democracy and other such organizations. These organizations' main function is to promote the fallacy that U.S. interests are served by making sure that Israel – "the embattled island of democracy in the Middle East" – is protected, and that the lives of American children should be joyfully spent to bring democracy to foreigners in Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, and elsewhere.
Reply
2. Voters should not vote for any candidate for federal office who accepts contributions from AIPAC or any other Israel-first organization. This decision would be an important step in beginning to sweep clean the Augean stable that is American politics.
3. Voters of all faiths must press their religious leaders to regularly, publicly, and specifically denounce the evangelical Protestant preachers whose fire-and-brimstone support for Israel involves Americans in religious wars in which U.S. interests are not threatened.
Neutralizing the Israel-first fifth column must be done, but it must be accomplished using legitimate democratic tools: voting, lobbying, free speech, and support for candidates pledged to keep America out of other peoples' religious wars. The invocation of the anti-Semite epithet by the Israel-firsters should be ignored. To be silenced by the slurs of the Israel-firsters is to ignominiously invite the end of American independence by subordinating U.S. interests to those of a foreign nation, as well as to forget the warning of the greatest American. "If men are precluded from offering their sentiments on a matter which may involve the most serious and alarming consequences that can invite the consideration of mankind," George Washington said in March 1783, "reason is of no use to us; the freedom of speech may be taken away, and, dumb and silent, we may be led, like sheep, to the slaughter." As long as the Israel-firsters can define the limits of acceptable public discourse, Americans are on their way to the slaughter.

So what? When will you finally realize that nobody has any control over what others call them. Come to think of it, you should know that because you and your friends are masters of calling people all kinds of things, usually not "messiah," but that's a different issue.
When Barack Obama starts to call Farrakhan "the messiah," it will be time to pay some attention, but until then it's irrelevant what Farrakhan, or anybody else, calls Obama.-

Pull your head out of your sphincter.....It's not that we are suggesting "guilt by association" here....Afterall, both McCain and Osama cannot predict who will publicly support them...That's not the issue for me....It's the question of WHY all of these radicals like Ayers, Farrankhan, Rev. Wright and others support Barack and NOT McCain? What is it about Barack that draws these America haters to him ?
That's the real question we should be asking....And the fact that he lied about Rev. Wright and Ayers....He needs to come clean on these issues, otherwise he looks like the dope he already is....-

Because of the same reason that Obama is leading in the polls by 11% point. McCain is mixed up with a bunch of shady characters himself and the economy that he bragged about last month sucks.
He lied about Rev. Wright and Ayers?? No he didn't lie. You just won't accept the truth. -

Hagee is a radical. He supported McCain, and McCain welcomed the endorsement (might want to look up that last word since I know you don't know what endorsement means).
so, wrong again.

Alaska ethics probe says Palin abused her power
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20081011/pl_nm/us_usa_p...
"An Alaska ethics inquiry found on Friday that U.S. Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin abused her power as the state's governor, casting a cloud over John McCain's controversial choice of running mate for the November 4 election.
At the same time, McCain shifted his strategy. After a week in which his campaign tried in vain to seize the momentum from Democrat Barack Obama with fierce personal attacks, he adopted a conciliatory tone, calling on supporters to respect the Illinois senator."

Racist comments never help one’s cause. As predicted, this election is the nastiest of all time; with ‘some’ saying racist things, some saying bad things about age, some saying bad personal things about a woman and her family.
Reply
McCain has enough things for the left to ponder and discuss yet ageism is the way some are going. (Bigotry)
Obama has enough things for the right to ponder and discuss yet some go the bigoted remarks as well.
Will it ever end? No I don’t think so. The sad thing here is as bad as this one was it will only become worse with each election cycle. Looking at this cycle, you can only imagine how vase and crass the future of the body politic will become. Arrrrgggghhhhh!

Getting desperate Simon. Are you implying that those persons you noted are now the majority in the US?
Reply
Really think the alternative is better?
The peculiar tragedy of this flawed hero, John McCain
For one whose single rhetorical flourish is the gratingly incessant appellation "My friends", John McCain has very few left. The roll call shrinks by the day as his bamboozled campaign grows nastier, and if the decline maintains its trajectory this year's Friends of McCain Thanksgiving Dinner in Arizona will be held, in homage to his naval career, in a solo canoe. By then, even the Clintons will have baled out because, barring a malevolent miracle, Barack Obama will be President-Elect, and Senator McCain's value to them as Oval Office seat-warmer until 2012 will have gone the way of Lehman Brothers. Even his wife, Cindy, can barely tolerate his presence, judging by the body language at the end of Tuesday's debate in St Louis. As they gingerly embraced, you sensed her wondering whether seven houses will provide a sufficient cordon sanitaire from each other's company come 5 November.

I don't know one person who believes that crap. and I don't know one person who listens to anything Farrakhan says. seems like the right is far more interested in Farrakhan than the left. and they should be, since Farrakhan is an ultra-religious conservative.
to most of us on the left, this campaign is a job interview for the most important job in the world, and Obama is clearly and simply the best person for the job. nothing more, nothing less.-

who cares? the fearmongers are the ones who are giving Farrakhan so much power. there were what, maybe a thousand people in that room, and not all of them (hell, probably not even most of them) believe that crap.
Reply
its much scarier to see people at a Palin rally of 5000 losing it in anger and shouting out for Obama's death. and even scarier is the fact that she's doing absolutely nothing about it. and even scarier is the thought that she could possibly be one heart beat away from the presidency.
the problem with Farrakhan's assertion, and with white peoples' fears, is that OBAMA IS NOT THE MESSIAH. so its no big deal. he won't turn water into wine or part the red sea or whatever.
hell, he'll be lucky if he gets to tackle health care in his first term and get us back in the black on the balance sheet.
but hey, if he does turn out to be the messiah, won't everyone who didn't vote for him feel like an idiot? -

The comment was that the members of the Nation of Islam are not "numerous" by your standards. The fact is that crazy racists do not need to be counted in the millions to be a threat. Calling someone a "Messiah" indicates an idolatry that is eerie at best, and potentially dangerous if taken to the extremes that unfortunately history can provide examples of. There is something very creepy about the way some of Obama's followers worship him. Very Twilight Zone.

fact is, the nation of islam is small by comparison. and your fear of them is laughable and boring, especially since its most likely race-based, and by the the fact that the nation of islam has never blown up anything in America to my knowledge.
Reply
but you are right on one point: "Calling someone a "Messiah" indicates an idolatry that is eerie at best, and potentially dangerous if taken to the extremes that unfortunately history can provide examples of."
in fact, you're agreeing with me cause that's what I said to kick this thread off. you'd have to be an idiot to think Obama is the messiah.
and thats where you're dead wrong about Obama supporters. we don't think he's the messiah. we just think he's clearly the best person for the job.
all these claims of obama worship sound simply like worship-envy to the rest of us. and when 70,000 people gather to hear him speak, we don't expect him to walk on water. we just want him stop the madness that's currently going on in DC thanks to the GOP.
so get it right next time.

An army brigade consists of 800-900 men and women.. So the Nation of Islam has approx. 35 brigades at their disposal uing just the 30,000 number. That is no small number if indeed they were called to violence. Just how many people does it take in a simple riot to wreck havoc on a city, much less covert actions?

In 2006, Davis set up a meeting between Senator John McCain and Russian metals billionaire Oleg Deripaska in Switzerland. It should be noted that Davis' lobbying firm famously used its connections with the Senator in the past to gain approval for the merger German courier DHL and US-based Airborne Express. The merger led to the closing of Airborne's Willmington, OH hub facility and hte resulting loss of approximately 8,000 US jobs.
Ostensibly in a similar move, Davis and his lobbying firm were using their close connections with Senator John McCain to demonstrate the type of access he and his lobbying firm had as Davis was courting Deripaska for furture lobbying business. This makes pure business sense from Davis' perspective as Deripaska is set to become the richest man in the world. It makes business sense, but it probably isn't example of "Country First."
Deripaska's loyalties to Vladamir Putin have considerably helped his business dealings in Russia. He has known ties to Russian organized crime and is barred from entering the United States by the State Department because of the depth of those connections. As such, McCain's tough talk towards Russian rings a bit hollow given his closest advisors significant dealings with the country's ruling business elite.
Many may remember, Doug Davenport was another McCain campaign associate who left earlier in the campaign season after having lobbying connections to the Burmese Junta.
Barack Obama may have had coffee with a man who 40 years ago did some horrible things, but it appears Senator McCain is having stronger drinks with members of the Russian underworld right now.

The attitude if it feels good along with don't have respect for the president of the United States or anybody in authority just make fun joke tear down seems to be right in line with the OB mentality. Enough is enough of hollywood whose morals and class is zero. It makes me wonder why hollywood wants OB so bad. Probably because he is a big liberal as well.

wake up people religion does not belong in politics but if Obama gets in it will have a large part. Bush dumped on his Evangel.but I.m afraid Obama will fall lock step behind he's religious backers to make sure he can get reelected & with control of congress the dems. will do what ever he wants. If we can't get rid of obama we should at least make sure the Reb. get control congress just to keep him in check. besides they wouldn't be such a loss. Look what they done so far
