so throughout  the election ive noticed that barack obama gets an advantage out of being black. i mean it seems like if u criticize the guy u sound like a racist. i found this interview though where he uses the phrase "typical white person" http://gatewaypundit.blogspot.com/2008/03/barack-obama-my-grandmother-is-typical.html. wtf barack. u cant just go around grouping white people together as being all the same, cuz that sounds pretty damn racist to me. seriously how does he get away with this shit? u bet if mccain used the phrase "typical black person" the leberal-biased media would be all over it and his campaign would literraly be over in a matter of a day. but obama calls his grandma a "typical white person" and i goes completely unnoticed. yeah i guess all us white people are the same in obama's eyes. what a douche, im so fucking tired of him playing the race card, just talk about how ur gonna help the country instead of stereotyping groups of people and making urself seem like a victim cuz of ur skin color. i really hope mccain wins even though i dont agree with him on a lot of shit either

You're RIGHT! He's EXACTLY like Hitler. Kudos to you, we've all been so blinded by those "Change" banners that we missed the hitlerstache. Great investigative work there, Sam Spade, you've done your country a great service. Now we just need to fly him to Nuremburg and we should be all set!

well here's the thing, Obama doesn't advocate ethnic cleansing and he isn't going to kill 6 million jews so your comparison doesn't really work.

And most people do know why their hopping on the bandwagon, because they don't want another republican in the whitehouse for another 4 to 8 years.

ok well now ur just retarded. the reason that i posted this thread was simply to comment that barack can get away with this, and nobody else would be able to. agree or disagree? if mccain used "typical black person" itd be all over no doubt. that one phrase definitly is not the reason im not voting for him nor did i ever say it was. u still fail tell me why barack should be president. maybe if u gave me some facts to support ur opinion, id change my mind. but ive never heard a barack supporter actually tell me facts, just call me ignorant if i say i dont like obama like u have so thouroughly done. here are reasons i wont vote for obama: bad idea to get out of iraq immediatly, never said anything about stopping illegal immigration, will cost me more tax dollars in his stupid universal health care, and i have never heard him say how hes gonna revive the economy. is all that stuff important enough for me to focus on?

First off... are you the type of person that would be willing to beat the living shit out of someone for calling you a (insert any name here)?  Talk about overreacting!  You're not the only person entitled to their own opinions.  I didn't post in this thread to argue and fight like 12 year olds.  It's simply a discussion until someone decides to change it.

I don't think Obama is exactly like Hitler.  I never said I thought they were alike.  I don't even associate them in my mind.  I was only saying that they both promise(d) this all-powerful change.  They both gained a huge following from promising change alone. 

Good job taking something way out of porportion and choosing (changing) my words for me.

thank you. i did like the stuff he says about the economy with the exception of NATO. i still dont like his iraq plan "Obama will immediately begin to remove our troops from Iraq". his immigration plan is hazy but i doubt he does much to stop it because i never hear him talking about it (or anybody still in the race for that matter).

your completely wrong.

Voting for Obama (or Hilary for that matter) means your fed up with paying $3.50 (soon to be $4) for a gallon of gas, being anally probed at airports, having your phone wiretaped, and overall the constant flow of bullshit being fed to the american people by our current Republican administration.

McCain is going to be the exact same as Bush-alliences with oil companies, more crazy conservatives on the supreme court, and 4,000 more american soldiers dead in iraq.

I vote for change.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, sniper fire?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?  That is the dumbest thing I have heard her say to date.  If there was a raging battle going on, or even a kid with a squirt gun, the plane wouldn't even land.  Wow, I need to look this up immediately.

Here you go, she said her plane did a roundabout landing (that's the typical pattern in a deployed environment) and is landed "under sniper fire".  Funny.

i sorta find the obama pastor thing to be stretching things a little too far, i mean, its his pastor whos the terrible person, not him, plus, he might not have always been like that. just because u have a pastor for a while who ends up doing or saying some thing stupid, doesnt mean that he believes that or that he agrees with it.

Im not going to directly address any post in here because that would just take way to long.
First of all Obama's pastor. He said jews are bad or whatever. HES A FUCKING PASTOR. any religious idiot is going to think every other religious idiot who isn't in his/her religion is bad. Muslims hate jews jews hate muslims christians hate them all. religion is fucked up, period.

Iraq. I've seen about 3000 posts saying "oh we shouldn't just get up and leave iraq." WHEN WOULD BE A GOOD TIME. The middle east has been on a path for self destruction for thousands of years. it doesnt matter if we leave in 10 minutes or 10 years, its gonna be a disaster when we leave regardless. why not get out now and at least save out soldiers lives, instead of prolonging the inevitable.

The economy. Oh christ the economy. The war may not have "caused the recession, but people are voting for Obama and Hilary for other reasons. They are sick and tired of paying damn near 4 bucks a gallon for gas. They are sick of the government giving contracts to corporations, just so that Cheny can have a few more bucks in his Haliburton fed coffers. For crying out loud we just signed a contract for USAF planes to European company Airbus. Anyone see anything wrong with this? Obama and hilary may not be perfect, but they beat the shit out of the right or wrong my way is the only way republicans.

racism and most stereotypes exists for a reason, it may sound mean but its the truth. when people think of a black person they think of some guy wearing gangster clothes and walking around with a gun, rappers, etc. because the majority of black people are like that in some way. not every black person but alot are. i know around here about 1 in every 20 black people doesnt fit that black stereotype.
and there are tons of stereotypes for white people and every race too.

You do realize that US involvement in Afghanistan has pretty much nothing to do with why Osama Bin Laden hates America, right? Also has nothing to do with why a bunch of Saudis decided to attack us on September 11. And there's really no logical correlation between the Afghan-Soviet war and our occupation of Iraq.

And for the record, Obama is not a real "peace" candidate either. Look at the way he talks about Iran and North Korea, repeatedly referring to them as "enemies." Look what he's said about going back into Iraq a few years down the road if it becomes an Al Quaeda stronghold. Obama is just as likely to send us into another unnecessary war as McCain or Clinton. There is no hope for this election. We are screwed.

i have nothing to hide on my phone or when i get on a plane if its making it safer for my fellow americans and i fuck it im all for it. i am sick of the constant flow of bullshit fed to me by the current democratic news stations and news papers. bush does not make money from oil companies he is not the reason oil costs so much. you should look into oil companies and how they work. exxon mobile made 64billion in profits but spent 200 billion on research and new refineries. gas doesnt cost a shit ton because bush is in office go do your homework and get back on here when you know what you are talking about.

In 2000 when bush took office, the average price of gas was $1.50. now is $3.50. You cant tell me george bush and his economic policies had nothing to do with it. He started his own oil company back in the 70's and has invested heavily in them ever since. He's set terrible fuel economy standards which makes even more money for oil companies. Theres a reason that the prince of saudi arabia is nicknamed Prince Bandar Bush.

and by democratic news stations are you refering to Fox noise, who features racist assholes like bill  o'reilly?

wiretapping is an invasion of privacy under the 14th amendment, end of story

YOUR A FUCKIN RETARD. Bush owns an oil company himself. Your dumb and misinformed buddy, your the one that listens to all the conservative bullshit. Honestly if you support bush at this point in time you should be deemed clinically retarted. You act like you know what your talking about but you dont know shit.

And who gives a fuck if you dont have anything to hide, the government has no right to invade your privacy. You have a constitutional right to privacy. Once the government starts to control our lives you will realize that it does fuckin matter.Go read 1984 and then youll see what could happen to our country if we let that happen

it's difficult to take anyone seriously when they can't distinguish the difference between "you're" and "your"

Obama is nothing but an illusion created by a genius campaigner. He won't explain himself on many issues and just uses glittering generalizations like "change" to boost his campaign. We all want change but if all these stupid kids who think hes the greatest thing ever looked into the change he is calling for they would realize that they don't agree with him. All these dumb ass kids at my school like obama(nothing wrong with liking him) so I ask them why they like them. They say he is for change. I ask what change and they don't even know what the mother fucker stands for. Most of the kids at my school should probably be praying that Mccain gets elected so their parents taxes don't get so high.

And what exactly are they spending it on? Sure it may come out of taxes, or other stores of money, but they have to BUY GOODS with this money. That's what boosts the economy. War = huge influx of money into the economy. The gov't starts spending massive amounts of money which in turn boosts the economy.

not true. the president can accept reelection contributions and then do whatever he wants with the money. He can also own stock and collect royalties (in bush's case oil investments).  

Bush actually puts around 1 million in his personal bank account every year (before taxes, yes the president pays taxes)

i dont think obama is racist. i think he made a big mistake by saying that, and im sure he thinks so too, but i also think it is very difficult to avoid slips of what society has engrained into our minds about stereotypes, i also think he wasnt saying it out of hate or equating "typical white" behavior as something to be erradicated, and isnt hate the reason racism is bad in the first place? i think hes a good guy, and if you vote republican just to spite the opposing candidate, then you, sir, are whats wrong with america today.

its not being spent on buying goods or any crap like that. this is not like WWII where the government ordered billions of dollars worth of military equipment and the whole country became mobilized towards the war effort. We already had a huge military force in terms of equipment and machinery going into Iraq. These billions of dollars are being spent on just the general military expenses. that does not help our economy, in earlier times the factory workers were working long hours and making much more money than before, all that money was getting circulated back into our economy. the american public is not seeing a cent of the money that gets spent in Iraq today. There is a limit to deficit spending and Bush has already gone way past that. we no longer manufacture anything in our country and we are in debt billions if not trillions of dollars to china. This is totally different to a typical wartime scenario

I realize that there are alot of differences. However, that is unavoidable with the stage of globalization that we are currently residing in. While the military may not necessarily be buying straight from American factories, it comes back to us in other ways.

what benefits are we reaping every day from the war in Iraq? Rising gas prices, rising food prices, rising everything prices? Or maybe its the fact that the terrorists are still out there, even though that was the driving force behind entering Iraq in the first place.
