Comments such as the following have become common place this election cycle:
"The thought that Barack Obama the "MESSIAH"(Words of Reverend Farrakhan) is on his way to being our next President should scare the hell out of every freedom loving American."
Why should I lend any credibility to the words of Farrakhan or any reverend for that matter? Freedom? The Patriot Act extended our freedom? Those F Heads at the NSA passing YOUR phone sex conversations from cubicle to cubicle while gleefully cackling are acting in the name of “FREEDOM”?
Why is the election of our President about religion at all? Like the woman who referred to Senator Obama as an “Arab”, is it about race, too? Why all this talk about Muslim? Are we beyond electing a Muslim? Jew? Mormon? Southern Baptist? Atheist? Scientist? Agnostic? Buddhist? … It goes on … Some melting pot separating Church from state we’ve turned out to be!
Tell me, which religion or lack there of is NOT off limits?
Like those who call for Obama’s head and insist he’s a terrorist or at least a sympathizer to the cause, do you really think he’s less American than you or me? Am I a terrorist for thinking a different approach is in order here? Thanks to Conservative talk radio, our populous is headed for division that leads to assassination. Thanks to McCain for recognizing this. Thanks to McCain for holding his head high while he takes a campaign fall for the right wing crowd who have used him and Palin to bridge the gap between today and 4 years from now while planting seeds they hope will grow into “I told you so’s” in 2012.
The Republican Party had no intention of putting Romney or another valid candidate at the helm of this disaster that is Bush and 6 years of Republican domination. They already want to blame 2 years of Democratic House dominance for the USA’s crumbling economy and reputation abroad.
The public, right or wrong, are willing to give Obama a go. Hate is rearing its ugly head as if Obama is some foreign extremely religious terrorist looking to bring us all down. They want to talk abortion, yet Bush had 8 years to make that difference. Did he? They want to talk economy, yet Bush had 8 years (6 of those with conservative backing in Congress) where are we?
Either the Presidency of the US has failed of late, or the Presidency doesn’t matter all that much until it comes to sending the military somewhere to kill or be killed. I think we’ve had a gut full of killing and being killed while still walking among the living remains the executive producer of 9/11 whose name ironically rhymes with Obama and who is an unusually tall terrorist with tons of dough as well as needs for dialysis. Hussein was easy to kill … how hard can it be to get Osama?

I live in eastern Idaho, and I thought y'all might find this interesting.
The film "W" will not be released here -- at least yet. It was scheduled for release, I got free tickets from the radio station and - Boom, it was off the marquee.
That's it. I'm voting Nader.
Is the entire state of Idaho banning the flick? Lame!
No. In places such as Boise, Coeur d'Alene and Sun Valley, theatre owners have a "Free Exchange of Ideas" business model.
Several of my Kool-Aid drinking right wing buddies are the most disappointed. They bought advanced tickets and ended up getting an advanced kick in the goodies.
