McCain:"Investigate ACORN"
Posted by: Amanda Carpenter at 3:20 PM
McCain was so fired up today.

"There are serious allegations of voter fraud in the battleground states of America and they must be investigated!"

CNN -- Video Link
Here's the video:
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/09/acorn.fraud.claims/ index.html#cnnSTCVideo

It occurred during the 10/9 Campbell Brown program.

Here is the article:

CNN Investigates ACORN-Obama!
CNN (!) did a decent investigatory piece linking Obama to ACORN ($800,000 contribution to ACORN): http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/09/acorn.fraud.claims/ index.html#cnnSTCVideo

It occurred during the 10/9 Campbell Brown program.

Here is the article:
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/09/acorn.fraud.claims/i ndex.html10/9

Since CNN has now legitimized the issue, I think McCain needs to bring it up next debate; the Ayres thing should be secondary. ACORN is a more current issue -- it relates to the current election itself, as well as the housing crisis -- and should resonate better and seem less like mud-slinging.

CNN did a decent investigatory piece linking Obama to ACORN ($800,000 contribution to ACORN), but I can't find the video on YouTube. It occured during the 10/9 Campbell Brown program.

Did Obama Cheat Hillary via ACORN?
He paid ACORN $800,000 to register voters in the primary. Now massive voter registation fraud by ACORN is exposed. Makes you wonder.

PLEEEZ! Get over yourself. No self respecting conservative would WASTE THEIR TIME beating you up. You bore me with your whining.

Liberal girls, do you have a degree
To the unhinged liberals on this site, I am curious do you have a degree. Have you studied much or are you just reading your talking points from your My Space emails?

Just FYI, Acorn is a scandulous organization that you should be worried about should you ever grow out of your youth, get a job and start paying taxes. If you're not careful, you may turn into a responsible republican. It's a matter of time.

McCain supported al qaeda terrorists
The GOP Presidential Nominee, in 1980s, Sat on Advisory Board of U.S. Chapter of Far Right-Wing World Anti-Communist League Implicated in Iran-Contra Scandal, Linked to Death Squads in Latin America and Bankrolled by Billionaire Leader of Unification Church Who Served Time in Federal Prison for Income Tax Evasion

McCain supported Contras. Contras = al qaeda via the channels they took. McCain supports al qaeda? Seems so.

ACORN? Ayers? Who gives a care when we've got a real, live terrorist sympathizer in McCain!
NeroDavola writes: Thursday, October, 09, 2008 4:14 PM
Fired Up?
You mean when talking to his "fellow prisoners"?

Yeah, if anyone outside of the drooling base is listening at this point, I'd be surprised. Targeting ACORN, a group that serves to ensure the poorest among us get their voices heard, is NOT the path McGrumpy wants to take. But, since he's done so well listening to his shrill mouthpieces, I say "Go for it, Gramps".

It's not a lack of civility to state
Your unfit for command because:

1) You've funneled large amounts of money to Wm. Ayers from a job that he selected you for to be his middleman.

2) You've sat in an anti-American church for twenty years and denied hearing the preachers sermons.

3) You've a philosophical bent to Frank Marshall, Sol Alinsky and Acorn.

4) You are an American Socialist

5) You have no record of legislative accomplishment.

6) You have voted present in your State Senate position so as to avoid taking positions.

7) Your vaunted anti involvement in the Iraq war speech took no risk because you had no national resposibilities and demonstrates your opportunistic character to the detriment of national security. You'll say anthing.

8) Your promise to reduce and even have no tax increases are lies base on your own proposals ... "sins of omission are still sins."

9) Your oversight in the U.S. Senate of the Afghan Theatre of Operations was non-existant until you were called out on it.

10) Your contempt for gun owners and those of religious faith demonstrates how out of touch you are with a sizable segment of America.

11) You know nothing of military arts and combat arms.

12) You have never run anything that required you to account to any one or any bottom line.

13) You are a recipient of grotesque amounts of money from the GSE's, Fannie and Freddie.

14) You will not seek energy independence in the short run with an aggressive fossil fuel expolrationa and drilling.

It is not impolite to tell a marginal man that his cut is not sufficient for this executive job.

CAMPAIGN CHANT: OBAMA, FRANK & DODD
WHY DOESN'T MCCAIN HIT THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ECONOMIC MELT DOWN: OBAMA, FRANK & DODD?

Can you prove the Kill him thing? No, you cannot, you are spewing lies. Do you know why conservatives make you nervous? Because conservatives accept responsibility for their actions and you DON'T, and you will be doggone if anyone gets in your way of: If it feels good do it. You will see true anger when Obama doesn't get the Office, you will see true anger and over the edge violence, Evidently you do not know a true conservative, in fact you probably avoid them like the plague, because you like doing and living your life like you have.
Don't forget the intimidation tactics your party uses to get your way. Remember you are supporting a man who associates with Terroists and wants to fight terrorism.
Get your head out, get some air, try using that little pea brain of yours.
Are you afraid of Obama? Are you afraid of what may happen? It seems to me you are more afraid of the results of Obama than you are of the conservatives, if you have so much fear of what Obama might do maybe you better rethink your ideas.
Stop Spreading Lies while you are at it!
Scared of Riots? Scared of Racism? hmmm wonder who breeds this type of thinking
OBAMA!

No such luck. No matter how much conservatives threaten and try to terrify, the attempts at intimidation are only going to embolden them. Obama will win this election, by and landslide. God protect him.
eddie too writes: Thursday, October, 09, 2008 3:38 PM
Voter fraud is the stock in trade of

totalitarians and far left demagogues, i.e. Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, Ahmadinejad, Saddam Hussein. Why would it surprise any one that the far left supporters of the far left Barack Hussein Obama would engage in it?
eddie too writes: Thursday, October, 09, 2008 3:36 PM
animalgirl, very perceptive!!!

Now go find a hole to hide in and do not come out until I tell you it is safe. Oh yeah, take a lot of your stupid, ignorant and naive friends with you.

Blood on their hands
McCain Palin crowds are becoming unhinged. The people at rallies are screaming 'terrorist' and 'traitor' and 'kill him.' Some of the videos of vicious and infuriated conservatives making threats are truly chilling.

Are conservatives intentionally trying to drive nutjobs over the edge? Conservatives have always made me nervous, but I am starting to have genuine fear of violence, not just against Obama but against anybody deemed to 'liberal' by these crazies.
