Ignorance, Racism and Hate

Ignorance, Racism and Hate are alive and well in Ohio. Check out the front page of our website to watch the video I'm sure it'll make you cringe just like we did when we saw it.

I'm definitely voting, Meghan. And NOT for McInsane and Sarah The Hockey Goon.

I applaud your efforts.

And these are the lovely people who are crazily dedicated enough to actually vote, awesome.

A quick question though, if voting were compulsory, do you think the outcome of the past 2 elections would have changed?

I realise that the American population is way too decentralised for any way to effectively enforce a federal law to make voting compulsory. I like to think that the liberal thinking young adults who'd rather get stoned on election day than vote may make a huge difference. That or my faith in humanity can be completely and irreparably shattered by an even bigger landslide win for some inbred, right-wing, extremist government.

I think that the last two elections were interesting considering Bush really never won either of them. If people were forced to vote, I'm not sure what would happen. All I do know, is that McCain is a very scary individual and Palin is even scarier.

Also, in case you missed tonights Presidential Debate you can watch it on the front page of the website also.

Thanks for the post. I watched the video on Ohio and it is amazing how much differences can be within the same state. I have only seen maybe two McCain signs this whole election season, yet we have places like that one in the video within the same state.

One thing the struck me besides the interview was the person who shouted out baby killers becuase the person was holding an Obama sign. It a sin how that issue has been exploited to divide and judge people.

I have deep feelings on the subject, as I changed my life and sacrficed some of my own personal happiness for the sake of my only two children. I have also work jobs, in child protective services, where I was very dedicated, and youth diversion and recreation programs. To characterize me as a 'baby killer' is foul lie, just because I believe that each woman has to make the moral choice for herself and her family.

I feel the same way and sometimes wonder when did choosing the way you live your own life come into question? It's just like gay marriage, what business is it who you choose to marry? There really is no separation of church and state in our country, and it's obvious.
The video shows you just how far our country hasn't come in certain towns and cities throughout America.

It's unfortunate that the documentation of the racist rants of a handful of ignorant McCain supporters (or Obama plants, but that's another story..) have caused tremendous reactionary support of a socialist with extremely naive views of the economy and foreign policy.

It's also striking that few liberals have spoken out against Joe Biden's very open racist views of African- and Indian-Americans, just to name two of his recent targets.

If a government official supports, tacitly or otherwise, the abomination that is partial-birth abortion, he or she should expect to be called a baby killer a time or two. "If the shoe fits" and all that.

Obama is intelligent, I'll give him that. He's very well-spoken, I'll give him that, too. Unfortunately for America, he is also power hungry and slicker than owl shit. He and his campaign have used class envy and racial politics to bamboozle apparently a majority of likely voters in a soon-to-be-successful power grab. Obama/Pelosi/Reed is a very, very scary prospect.

Funny how often when a well spoken democrat gets close to the top, he's slick... oh, and power hungry...

Winning an election is a power grab, convincing folks to vote for you is bamboozling...

But you put a Rep in there... well that is enlightened self interest on the part of the electorate, and a willingness to serve their country. Holding elected office becomes a burden they are willing to beard, rather than a trophy they are trying to steal.

What utter crap. You can't complain about spin while doing it, not as an honest person.

Spoken like a true GOP stooge.
