Anti-Barack, Pro-Hillary RANT

<p>The day has come when someone who I dislike very much has been unvailed and caught as a liar on national television: Barack Hussein Obama.</p>

<p>Let me just start by saying I could not be happier at this point. I am a huge Hillary fan, not just for her stances (which I mostly agree with except for a few,) but for her humanistic side and the fact that I feel that what you see if what you get. There isn't any of this cover-up speaking that Barack does. Something is fishy with him.</p>

<p>Think back to a few hours ago: (or days, rather). Barack's church preacher and leader was uncovered on television, by an anonymous source, as an overtly religious figure. Religion is fine, I am not against it. But, do you really want another potential president like George W. Bush who does his "preachy" talk, "In God's name" rhetoric? No! At least not me. Religion is fine, it's personal, but what happened to separation of church and state people!! Just because America was founded on Puritan (aka religious and quite conservative principles) doesn't mean they should be applied to the Presidency...the conservative part can wait for another day (although it shouldn't...) And not that Barack would be a constant promoter of God, but he surely would be associated with the preacher from this point on. What about the Atheists in America? What about Jewish people (whenever he mentions Jesus?) You know? It's ok to have religious freedom, but I think there IS a definitive boundary. And politicians should respect that.</p>

<p>Do you really want someone to get into the presidency who isn't a man of his words? Put aside all logic at this point. Have you ever noticed in pictures, he has a certain smug, an arrogance that I really can't understand, like he is the shti and knows it, etc? Something about him is stressing me out, like he's going to unleash some sort of ill-fated plan once into the White House, which obviously would then be the Black House (and no I am so not racist!) I wouldn't mind having a black president, actually. But NOT HIM! He is not right for that job. </p>

<p>Hillary is the one, in my mind, who would be perfect for this country. Sure, she's a woman, and God knows this country was founded to be a man-dominated society. The 19th amendment gives women the right to vote...Why can't there be other amendments allowing women to do more? Like getting paid equal wages to that of men in this country! Like CAMPAIGNING AND NOT GETTING SCORNED BECAUSE OF IT! </p>

<p>I hope this country makes the right choice...Maybe Barack will not be as bad as I fear and the bad vibes are all false that I get from him...but there is still something fishy about him.</p>

<p>On a final note, I can't remember specifically who said this. It was either his preacher or another individual in the country who supports Barack's candidacy. Either way, one of the men said, "Being gay (homosexual) legalizes the act of sodomy." Let's take a minute and reflect mentally on that quote. So, does this in fact mean that, if we imply from this statement, being straight makes it illegal? Commiting sodomy is bad thing? I never would have guessed...I think times have changed and the Victorian Era can go and shove itself in its beautifully ruffled ass with the Bible. The law should probably change.</p>

<p>That is all I have to say. Amen. (JUST KIDDING!)</p>

<p>Hillary is ugly though. Barrack Obama is such a good looking guy. Don't you have to take looks in to consideration?</p>

3

<p>No!! That is so not a consideration. If someone is has amazing stances, can lead this country in a good direction, but is ugly (which actually I happen to think Hillary is a great person) what should that matter? Barack may be good looking but you know if he's not as eligible (relatively speaking of course) as Hil, why should looks be taken into consideration ya know? I mean I guess haha you could but to me they don't matter. It's not like we have to date them .</p>

4

<p>Haha. Niceeee, Sheed.</p>

5

<p>What about feel. The way Obama speaks makes me tingle. He's such a good speaker and he makes me feel good inside. Hillary on the other hand sucks at speaking and her voice sounds like gravel scratching against a chalky piece of glass. If I'm going to listen to them speak for 4 years, should that be taken into consideration.</p>

6

<p>Haha. I don't know. I mean, I feel like both are a world better than Bush. So, I'm content with both of their speaking voices. But still, if you are swayed JUST by their voice and it has the power to make you see past their stance s(which I'm not saying it does,) then obviously that says something is wrong. Kind of like a nationwide manipulation lol.</p>

7

<p>I understand. What about the fact that Clinton won't release her Earmark requests? Obama has and he is being open about it, however Clinton is covering it up. Clinton</a> Won't Release Earmark Requests Like Obama - Politics on The Huffington Post</p>

8

<p>Hillary and Obama have almost identical stances on everything. I'm curious as to where you find Hillary's to be so different. And I agree with Sheed, a president needs to be able to speak and be motivational.</p>

9

<p>Yes, I don't think that's a good thing, I did say I agree with her <em>most</em> of the time...She is human and makes mistakes lol! I mean, I don't think anyone running is ideal, but I think out of them (for me at least, for you it could b e different) Hillary is better.</p>

10

<p>I'm just messing with you. I dislike both candidates equally (like A LOT). Maybe Clinton a little more, but whatever. I can't stop them.</p>

<p>Jeremy -- </p>

<ol>
<li> How was Obama caught lying? In your entire rant I can't find somewhere that you actually stated what he lied about.</li>
<li> Are Obama and his preacher the same person? No, they're not. So how can you state that Obama will be using "'preachey' talk" and "'in god's name' rhetoric?" And this isn't coming from a devout Catholic, I'm athiest.<br></li>
<li>Your last point is ridiculous. So someone who supports Obama made that statement - which I don't even know if I believe seeing as you can't remember who said it; "another individual in the country" is so specific. They're not the same person! That's like saying because I support changing the drinking age to 18, Obama does as well.</li>
</ol>

12

<p>lol
"Barack Hussein Obama."</p>

<p>did you intentionally insert the middle name as an expression of your dislike? :p</p>

13

<p>Haha ehh kind of. I'm not racist actually I didn't think of inserting it to show my dislike. But I guess now that you pointed it out hahaha.</p>

14

<p>Hillary can't win the general election. Barack has gone pretty easy on her and he's barely even been looking up dirt from her past. However, I seriously doubt that the Republicans will be as nice.</p>

<p>Also, I'm sort of curious of what campaign platform Clinton supporters think she'll run on in the general election against McCain? She can't use experience; she can't use change, because even though she is a woman, she pretty much acts like your typical White male politician; she can't use judgement because she voted for the Iraq war and there is the infamous, "I voted for it, but I hoped it wouldn't pass"; she can't use leadership because she is barely in control of her campaign right now; etc.</p>

<p>hillary = noob
barrack = hot</p>

<p>thread over, peace out y'all</p>

<p>Actually, the main source of the furor over Rev. Wright was not so much the extent of his religiosity as the perceived radicalness of his ideas. Some see him as an advocate of black separatism, due to his tirade against the perennial suppression of African Americans by US (white) government.</p>

<p>Personally, it doesn't bother me that Obama is so closely associated with this man. It's pretty clear that all the uproar is over the same two or three quotes that have been circulating about, which likely aren't an accurate representation of Wright's 20+ years of preaching. </p>

<p>As a side note: a distrust of government, however misguided it may be, may not be so bad a quality to have in a presidential candidate.</p>

<p>And you put his middle name in why? Portraying him as somehow bad because of his middle name, which is just happens to share with an infamous criminal, is so senseless.</p>

<p>Separation of church and state means that there is no official state religion. It does not mean that religion is not allowed to influence a government official's actions/thoughts. In fact, if it did mean that, we would have to impeach a vast majority of our government. For a religious person, faith influences a huge number of decisions and to deny this is simply stupid.</p>

What about the Atheists in America? What about Jewish people

[/quote]
</p>

<p>What about the Christians? Not allowing them to speak their beliefs is discriminatory. So what if people who don't share that person's beliefs might hear them? I recall listening to a great many reasons why Christianity is simply wrong and I don't think many people would say that a person's right to say such things is violating another's rights.</p>

<p>If an employer wishes to pay a woman less than a man, even though it's sexist, it's his right to run his business. And scorning someone for campaigning because of gender (although sexist), is free speech unless I'm much mistaken.</p>

<p>Unless Clinton has some magical power I don't know about, she can't control what her supporters say either, so why are you blaming Obama for what one of his supporters (i.e. a person he has no control over) said?</p>

Huh? At least do a bit of rudimentary research before posting something idiotic. </p>

<p>I don't think you're familiar with this important piece of legislation:
Equal</a> Pay Act of 1963</p>

<p>I don't think Barack is comparable to Bush on the whole religion thing... he isn't nearly as preachy. In fact listening to him speak I really don't get a preachy vibe at all.</p>

<p>And I'm sick of Bushes and Clintons!!!</p>
