      Hey ... ... ... when you pervert Christianity into a Pro-Warfare ... anti-Child ... Pro-Lying ... Welfare for the Wealthy Ideology .... it's a GUARANTEE that this kind of hate-thought ... this kind of hate preaching will be front and center.

      Christian Conservatives is nothing but a twisted Political PAC ...

      TRUE Christianity is still a beautiful, wondrous energy ... but seeing it politicized by hate mongers ... it's loses all energy.

      How pathetic. How Tragic.

        I'm reading a lot of hate coming from the extremist
        blacks who see Obama as the Messiah who
        will take revenge on the white trash, which
        is a threat and you can't take it any other way.

            You hater mongers must be very unhappy with McCain's statements at a Republican Gathering that Obama is not a Mulsim and is an honorable man. The crowd, played to by WINKY Palin booed McCain.

            Honesty and Reasonableness have NO PLACE with the GOP "faithful".

              Check your sources. A lot of these messages are sent to whites to create fear and drive their votes away from Obama. Ask yourself who benefits from this result. Extremists blacks are not generally internet people.

                  militia is clearly on the staff of the RNC who is spamming to stir up fear of Obama. You can spot their postings by how shallow they are.

                  It's about time they stop pitting one against the other. Sometime I think this whole election is becoming one big circus. Very disappointing, indeed. :-/

                    lets say Obama is an honorable man., Lets take that bas a given... "but" does that qualify him to be the President of this the most power full country in the world. Sorry not from what I have seen I just see an empty suit with no lil flag on it's lapel. And the next "intellectual" who says I'm a raciest because I can not vote for him is going to find my size 10 jump boot where the sun don't shine. Show a man or woman ,black white or green who has accomplished something in there life besides always running for office and I'll give them a shot but not this Rev. Ike want to be

                      Please list McCain's accomplishments that make him suitable to be president. Let me start you off: 1) A lack of understanding of the economy.
                      2) Average to lower then average IQ.
                      3) Bottom of his class in school.
                      4) Underachiever in his military career.
                      5) Lost 5 aircraft, is that possibly a record?
                      6) Adulterer
                      7) Weak on geography.
                      I could go on and on and on but i am sure you have some to add also.
                      I seriously wish i did not have to waste my time commenting on here but unfortunately you Repubs are now not only screwing up your own country but also the world economy and we are getting sick of it. It is time you idiots elect another leader with a brain rather then some moron you could drink a beer with. Vote OBAMA.

                        This warrants reposting.

                        So true and well put, the US needs to be strong at home and not the paper tiger it tries to show the world, a country should always put their people, all of them that is, first and not a select few.

                            Let's see, she's lied about a meeting with a diplomatic representative of a foreign nation and has had to apologize for it.

                            She's shown total ignorance of the competing theories of preemptive warfare and mutually assured destruction as approaches to maintaining peace.

                            She's committed adultery.

                            She's used the powers in office questionably.

                            bobmendx1,

                            let's say McCain is an honorable man; let's take that as a given... "but" does that qualify him to be the President of this the most powerful country in the world.

                            From what I've seen, in the last three years he has flipped on almost every opinion that made him a republican maverick. He is accusing his opponent of being a tax and spender while proposing and supporting some of the most outrageous spending in the history of our country. He has picked a vice president who is completely untrustworthy. He has lobbyists running his campaign. He has shown himself repeatedly to be completely ignorant or confused on basic geography and the differences among different factions in Iraq. He also, often, doesn't wear a flag pin on his lapel -- not that I particularly worry about that. Anyone who is so desperate to make a cheap statement of patriotism by being sure to wear a flag pin on their lapel at all times, brings to mind the old saying, "patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.

                            And the next redneck that accuses me of being ageist for not voting for Senator McCain can...well you get the picture. Show me a 72 year old that hasn't flipped all his base values, doesn't seem to think that war should be the weapon of first resort in foreign policy and doesn't have the poorest voting record in the Senate and I'll give them a shot; however, not this George W Bush want to be.

                                lol...as soon as he won the nomination he brought in the same RNC marketers to run his campaign as the one's who ran Bush's campaign. Not much of a maverick.

                                MILITA: I don't necessarily doubt your claims for to be sure there are Black people in this world and this country that are extreme in their views. But I suspect that you are at worst lying, or at best over exaggerating the alleged hate mail to which you refer. In spite of the deluge of hate posts directed at Obama in particular, and Black folks in general, I maintain that most people regardless of ethnic affiliation are basically good people, and reject hate mail and it's negative philosophy regardless of it's origin. I have no problem with folks that support McCain because they believe he is the better candidate, any more than I have with those of us that support the superior candidate Obama.

                                I understand your repulsion with Black hate mail, my question is do you have the same reaction to white hate mail? Somehow I doubt it, consequently I don't give a tinker's dam what you think, or for that matter what anyone like you thinks. Obama in 2008!

                                  "other Gods are praying" for anything, let alone Obama. is an interesting concept. What happened to the rest of the article? I clicked and it seems to have disappeared.

                                    These guys are such a joke. When their candidate wins, it was because God wanted it. When their candidate loses its the Devil's fault and for some reason their God couldn't overpower the Devil....

                                      And have the nerve to somewhat chastise God in advance, just in case they lose!

                                      It isn't McCain Americans have to fear , it is
                                      Palin. She is going to create a mutiny if Mccain wins so she can be president and control America. It is obvious she and her supporters are far from McCain. I'm beginning to feel sorry for McCain. He has to keep apologizing and correcting his own crazed supporters.

                                        He has Palin to thank for putting him in the position of having to apologize constantly, she is enciting this behavior in crazed supporters. They are feeding off of her!

                                        Can we say lunatic!? I have never in all my years of attending differnt churches, heard any pastor address God in that manner!

                                          They're doing this crap because it gets media attention...for free. And it reaches their wacky base, for free. And it keeps the media's mind off the issues. And it's going to get worse. CONS don't want to lose.

                                            Agreed.

                                            Cons are even scarier when desperate.

                                            Watch out that Cheney, Ridge and Rove don't nuke an American city and blame the Iranians.

                                                Palin would not be the problem if they win, it would be her husband calling the shots. the same man that belonged to the Anti American group that wanted to separate themselves from the USA. He was the one more than Sarah that pushed for the trooper to be fired. He had unfettered access to the State House.

                                                  The McCain of 2000 was an independent maverick who was treated like dirt by the Republican Establishment and its Christian Fundamentalist right wing. These are the same people that the McCain of 2008 sucked up to in order to gain this year's Republican nomination. The Republican Party is still the party of religious extremists that Barry Goldwater condemned in the 1980s - it's only McCain who has changed, and for the worse. He might have been a maverick in 2000, but in 2008 he's nothing but a castrated steer.
