Why shouldn't I? Poop jokes don't exactly demonstrate intelligence.

There are going to be a lot of disappointed Obama supporters when McCain wins.

Just wait and see.

It also shows a lack of intelligence when one takes them seriously.

I never knew who Barak Obama was until I heard of Jeremiah Wright...

It is clear that you hate Obama. You keep spreading your hatred on this forum, and starting flame wars. Quite frankly you're just pissing me off.

I wonder if Palin's church will get the same attention.

I would venture to guess that the numbers shown for McCains speech might be a result of many believing the Obama is not ready. If that is the case, what are we looking at then from McCain. I'm not really sure what drives the numbers this time. This whole campaign is very dynamic.

Do not read what Subman1 writes. Put him on ignore.

I doubt it will because I will guess that it is not a "God Damn America..." church like Barak Hussein Obama went to for over 20 years and somehow never heard those nasty sermons by that scallywag.

Sounds awfully similiar - http://maxblumenthal.com/2008/09/pal...gainstamerica/

Kroon placed Zephaniah in a modern context, warning that the sinful habits of Americans would invite the wrath of God. “And if Zephaniah were here today,” Kroon bellowed, “he’d be saying, ‘Listen, [God] is gonna deal with all the inhabitants of the earth. He is gonna strike out His hand against, yes, Wasilla; and Alaska; and the United States of America. There’s no exceptions here — there’s none. It’s all.’”

That sounds like God will damn America to me.

And then there's these

In the address at the Assembly of God Church here, Ms. Palin’s ease in talking about the intersection of faith and public life was clear. Among other things, she encouraged the group of young church leaders to pray that “God’s will” be done in bringing about the construction of a big pipeline in the state, and suggested her work as governor would be hampered “if the people of Alaska’s heart isn’t right with God.”
She also told the group that her eldest child, Track, would soon be deployed by the Army to Iraq, and that they should pray “that our national leaders are sending them out on a task that is from God, that’s what we have to make sure we are praying for, that there is a plan, and that plan is God’s plan.”

A pipeline being God's direct will? That's not being overtly religious, it's insane.

Or horribly cynical and manipulative. But that couldn't be it.

EDIT - Awright, let's go with the Jeremiah Wright question. Why did Gov Palin sit still and listen to a preacher describe terrorist violence as God's judgement against Jews? (where have we heard that one before?)

"Judgment is very real and we see it played out on the pages of the newspapers and on the television. It's very real. When [Brickner's son] was in Jerusalem he was there to witness some of that judgment, some of that conflict, when a Palestinian from East Jerusalem took a bulldozer and went plowing through a score of cars, killing numbers of people. Judgment — you can't miss it."

Think again, Subman.

Since the last federal election in 2006, volunteers like Graham combined with the enthusiasm generated by the Obama-Clinton struggle to add more than 2 million Democrats to voter rolls in the 28 states that register voters according to party affiliation. The Republicans have lost nearly 344,000 thousand voters in the same states.
