As I have said many times before,educate yourself on anything you are to vote on,know the background not just the Media Hype. Do the research on any subject and check the sources. No it isn't easy, but your decisions affect not only your life but others around you. This is supposed to be an election for president not PR rock star. You are hiring the CEO of Firm USA. Who do you want to run the firm, a manager with over 25 years experience or the newly hired stockboy?

If you complain about Palin's experience to be VP candidate where does that leave Obama? She has more real experience than he has. Or is Obama really running as Biden's VP?

GOP's ACORN 'Voter Fraud' Lie Ramped Up
I had been intending to post an answer to the ongoing -- and quickly escalating -- ACORN smears being issued of late by the GOP enemies of democracy out there, who have decided to intensify their unsubstantiated assaults on the community organization, given its effectiveness at registering millions of low-income voters across the country....
... Doubtless you've heard the smears by now: that ACORN is committing "voter fraud", on behalf of Obama, in hotly contested swing states. The media has been all too happy to pass that garbage on, without bothering to note that, in fact, the organization attempts to authenticate every registration form their workers submit and by law they must turn in every form to election officials -- even if they find a registration to be fraudulent when they call the phone number submitted on the form, or if the forms are otherwise suspect or incomplete.
They do so, and they flag all questionable registration forms as being suspect before turning them in to officials.
The thanks they receive for registering millions of new voters that nobody else has bothered with, and for notifying officials about questionable registration forms when they turn them in, is that the GOP's democracy-hating propagandists and election officials run to the media shouting, "ACORN is committing voter fraud! They've turned in hundreds and thousands of fraudulent registration forms!"
Of course they have. They have to by law. But what those GOP despots of democracy always forget to mention is that it was ACORN themselves who notified officials about the potentially fraudulent and/or incomplete forms in the first place!
For the quickest idea of how the GOP ACORN scam has run amok, dutifully forwarded by the often clueless corporate media, and then the rightwing wankers in the blogosphere who are only to happy to help enable those who are lying to them -- by putting truth, democracy and country second -- take a look at the following game of rightwing "blogosphere telephone" concerning a recent news conference called by a Lake County, Indiana GOP chair in order to sound the phony alarm about "fraud" committed by ACORN....

You Betcha there Obama. ACORN is shaping you up to be a phony, lying, worthless, cheating, voter fraud pile of CRAP DemoRat! The problem we have is getting the word to the public about all this. Again, most of the media is coving all this up, to protect their sweet innocent little Osama Obama. PUKE ME!

Keep in mind that the whole GOP ACORN "campaign" is an effort to dupe the gullible and cover up real theft of VOTES (as opposed to registrations).

Vote Rigging and Suppression Ahead of the 2008 Election
Election Day is less than a month away, and a record-breaking voter turnout is expected in the 2008 race. But voting rights groups are warning that tens of thousands of registered voters might not be able to cast a ballot come November 4th.
Beyond the documented problems of electronic voting machines, thousands of names have been purged from the rolls in several states, including at least six swing states.
Democrats and Republicans are locked in court battles over these in a number of states across the country. While Democrats say they’re trying to prevent attempts to block votes, Republicans say they are trying to prevent voter fraud.
BBC investigative journalist Greg Palast travels to New Mexico, Michigan and Colorado to investigate how both Democrats and Republicans are accusing each other of trying to steal the election.

Do you think he'll create a cabinet post for ACRON? The Secretary of Nuts. Working to build a better squirrel bait society. Do you know the difference between a squirrel and a rat. Nothing but a squirrel just gets better press.

Are you sure Karl Rove didn't have anything to do with this? Maybe he had Michelle tied to a railroad track somewhere. I can just picture him, dressed all in black, twirling the ends of his long mustache and laughing maniacally...I wouldn't put it past that Karl, he's a squirrely one!

Put a beard on obamas face and a towel on his head and there you have it, Osama Bin Laden. Do we really want a terrorist as president, I mean just look at his name. Barak Obama, sounds a lot like Osama. What kind of name is Barak anyway? Is it an muslim name, if he is elected as president then this country will be a joke and the presidency will no longer be the instution that it is now, it will just be a joke.

Are you serious? Do you have a job? Seriously when I read a statement like that, one so devoid of sense and reason, I mean your saying he is a terrorist because he has a name similar to Osama, who employs you? How do you exist in this world, do they let you operate motor vehicle? Or perhaps you live in your mom's basement? You know he was named by his parents right...I'm pretty sure they didn't know who Saddam or Bin Ladin were when they named him...do you know what Barack means? It is originally from a hebrew origin but in African, his father was African...oooooohh, I know scary!!!! It means Blessed....and Hussein, do you know what that means???? It's an Arabic word which means "handsome". There are several million people who have that as their last name. Many are not Muslims. And Saddam was not around when he was named. We should be weary of all those who are named Lee or Harvey or John...lol...no but I really am serious...are you permitted by the state to operate a motor vehicle?

I can't believe that anyone in their right mind would vote for Obama. He has lied over and over about his associations with terriorists and criminals. If anyone brings it up they play the race card. He is so involved in ACORN that they will steal this election. He is a FRAUD. I know there are a lot of black people who are smart enough not to follow like sheep just because he is partly black but there are a lot who think . I also think that it is true that if he gets votes , it will mostly be blacks and the youth who mostly are uninformed (some are but not enough) VOTER FRAUD. ACORN,OBAMA

Your commentary is EXACTLY why so many more Americans are eager to vote for Obama.
Reply
The supporters of McCain are incapable of understanding that the Fear and Smear they keep serving up reveals them to be soul-less Ideologues who thrive on demonization.
That's exactly the type of person that elected George W. Bush ... the Worst President in our History ... a man who's own personal Neo-Conservative ideology of Trickle Down Economics ... and War as 'just another' Product of the Economy ... has harmed our nation ... for years to come.
Your inability ... and the inability of the Agents of Division here on this thread ... to respect the intelligence of the American people ... and your inability to respect Truth and Justice ... have persuaded Patriotic Americans to support Obama.
We are VERY excited to potentially have an American who doesn't use his Religion to pander for votes.
We are VERY excited to potentially have an American who respects that Government can play a positive role ... unlike the Bush Administration ... who screws up Government .. then uses Socialistic Principles to bail out the mess.
We are VERY excited to potentially have Barack Obama as Presdient of The United States.

in the video, OBAMA NEVER SAYS ACORN WILL SHAPE HIS AGENDA.
in fact, Obama talks about ALL the community organizations that have helped him across the country (which the first speaker says is literally hundreds of organizations beyond acorn) and Obama never says the word "acorn."
FROM THE VIDEO...
WOMAN: "If elected President of the United States would you agree in your first 100 days to meet with a delegation of representatives of these various community organizations that campaigned for community values, could they count on you in your first 100 days to sit down with them?"
OBAMA: "Yes but let me even say, before I even get inaugurated, during the transition we're going to be calling all of you in to help us shape the agenda. We're going to be having meetings all across the country with community organizations so that you have input into the agenda for the next presidency of the Untied States of America."
STANDING OVATION.
so, no special mention of acorn whatsoever. and if acorn is included in the hundreds of other community organizations involved, so be it. they are just one of many.
and...Obama said he is going to listen to the people, and that the people are going to help him shape his agenda.
and that's a bad thing?
you cons are sad. you know your ship is sinking so you have to start with the lies.
what a puny plan.-

Actually, ACORN, and many other such bipartisan, Repub. & Democ organizations have existed throughout most of the USA history. Acorn is an honest organization that has had some dishonest employees/volunteers - just as have the other such organizations. During the 2000 elections it was partisan Repub. organizations found to be registering dead, out of country, non-citizan, etc. - leading to many prosecutions and thousands of votes being cast out nationewide. Every election the major parties have used dishonest tactics, but these were usually committed by dishonest employees/volunteers who wanted to give their party the edge even at the cost of breaking the law. When Acorn suspects someone of doing this they dismiss them and have even reported some of the worse to law enforcement. Acorn also flags the registrations of persons in which they suspect the info is incorrect or illegal. However, most of the media have failed to make that known to it's readers/viewers. The Repub. party, presently losing in the poles, is pulling all strings to attempt to discredit Acorn - even though Acorn has registered over one hundred thousand Repub. voters & tens of thousands of independent voters.
Reply
It is through these organizations that the disabled, elderly shut ins, poor, etc. have been able to register to vote and to vote in the last 3 - 4 Pres. elections. Each year we are seeing more and more of these citizens voting in the national and state elections. Over 90% of those who are registered by these organizations are legal voter registrants. But that will not stop McCain/Palin from trying to destroy such.-

Nevertheless, mightily conspicuous by its absence is the first complaint by a single Democrat that ACORN or any group is out there fraudulently registering voters for the GOP.
Reply
Not. One. Single. Accusation.
Yet ACORN is being investigated in over a dozen states, and that includes investigative bodies lead by Democrats.
This pattern is otherwise referred to as "a clue."

Actually, the words that are written in the video are BS. ACORN is an organization of poor and middle class families. DUH Obama would want to represent the ordinary citizen, who hasn't been represented in government for such a long time.
Reply
And the accusation(also made by McCain, who doesnt know jack about the economy) that ACORN and Obama pushed for bad loans is BS as well. For a long time, ACORN has pushed for fair loans from legitimate banks for poor and middle class families, and they try to push out the bad ones that led to this financial crisis we're having.

If you have no ideas except loosers, you have to start making up lies to scare people. McCain is loosing because he has no program, only sound bites. Look where we are today in a major recession and McCain has no initiatives to pull us out. He wants to continue the Bush Tax cuts that have failed, and with the the deficit they caused he can't afford another major cut. So what will pull us out of the recession? Maverick hot air? Gettin tough with Wall Street? He has nothing! If we take his economics There won't be enough of our economy to worry about. Look around - Ten trillion dollar debt; $400 Billion deficit; Six percent unemployment and rising; Credit disaster. What has McCain said he would change in concrete terms? Earmarks worth, at most $18 billion? peanuts. Unspecified "spending cuts"? Not if he continues defense spending where it is now. So you people have to make up fantasy about Acorn. If you had any respect for this county you would stick to the issues and recognize the failures of the Conservative Republican policies.
