As all Republicans I only listened to Fox. I took them at their word when they said that CNN and MSNBC were Obama supporters and only gave attention to Obama.
After listening to Fox say day in and day out how fair and balanced they were, I started getting nauseated. I watched Obama and I listened to him and I noticed how he reacted to all of the bad things that were being said about him and his wife. I watched as republicans were being told to vote for HRC. I listened to Hannity and I physically started getting sick. I realized that the person who was acting like the “Real Christian” throughout this whole thing was Obama.
People like Hannity are the same kind of people that turned me against religion and churches. They were promoting hate and racism and I knew that what the Republican Party was offering, I no longer wanted. We had been lied to for eight years and everyone in the country was suffering but the Republicans didn’t care, just as long as their candidate won the election. I started watching CNN and MSNBC and realized that Fox had been lying. They were hammering into the public the same things that Fox was. Lapels, Obama’s pastor, patriotism and so on and so on. It was then I realized that Obama was getting a bad rap from all of the media and yet he managed to rise above all of it and go on with his race without doing all of the dirty fighting and lies that other candidates put out.
I noticed lately Obama is fighting back harder against McCain but it’s not been dirty in my opinion. The day that McCain and Obama walked down to ground zero, some veterans had to put a pin of the American Flag on McCain and his wife because they were not wearing one. ( Obama was.) The media said nothing about it. At the debates McCain didn’t have an American flag pin on and Obama did. The media said nothing about it unless Olbermann or Maddow did. I didn’t get a chance to watch them that night. If that had been Obama the media would have crucified him and been talking about it for days and maybe weeks.
McCain has managed to use the media like a fiddle, keeping them running from one subject to another until they look like they are just as flaky as McCain. Many things have happened that should be questioned about McCain and Palin and the public hears about it for about five minutes and then they are off and running with another “topic” that McCain has created. Many men were Hero’s during the Vietnam War and many men were offered the same arrangement as McCain. Many men came home from that war with rotten food thrown at them and no help when they stepped back onto American soil. Other POWS came home that were not given the same welcome or the same Hero treatment as that of McCain. They came home and tried to put their lives back together and McCain came home feeling entitled. Ask Veterans how they feel about McCain and ask them how he has helped them throughout the years.
McCain had no problems with lying to and cheating on his wife who was no longer the model that he had married. (She had been in a horrible car accident, which you can read about in this blog) He cheated many times and then finally left her and their three children for the one with the most money, the one who could help further his career. Cindy McCain! By the way he also lied in his book about when he asked Cindy to marry him and how long they had been seeing each other so he continued lies about this up to this election when he was called on it. He in fact was still married to his wife, living with her when he asked Cindy and bought her a ring.
I loved the way McCain said in the debate that we should ask Obama about what he thinks is a lot of money or something to that effect in which Obama should have jumped all over that. McCain is constantly trying to make Obama look like an elitist when it is he who has seven houses and thirteen cars. It is he and his wife who are worth over 150 million. I have heard people say that it is her money. Wrong, in the state of AZ It is 50/50.
Then there is Keating Five where McCain was as crooked as they come but smart enough to throw all of the other people under the bus and managed to come out of it with a slap to the wrist. You can also read about the Keating Five in this blog because obviously the media won’t talk about it.
McCain has been obsessed with Obama admitting to the world that the surge worked and what McCain doesn’t seem to understand is that if he hadn’t been in the pocket of Bush, bombing a country and people that had nothing to do with 911 but everything to do with oil, we wouldn’t have even needed the surge. Wrong war, wrong place. The people who are responsible for 911 are still out there and stronger then ever!
Another example of McCain always looking out for McCain and not caring about this country is PALIN. He wanted shock value, he wanted to take the limelight away from the Democratic convention and he did. He chose a woman he didn’t know, he chose a woman who is in the middle of an investigation and who doesn’t seem to know anything about anything. He showed very poor judgment in his first decision and it is coming back to bite him in the butt. For this reason I would tell Palin to bow out gracefully or never go hunting with Cheney or McCain. Stay away from people with big guns. That brings me to the subject of sexism. If you want to play with the big boys then fight like the big boys and stop screaming sexism! That really pisses me off!
All of you old people that are Democrats or Independents who are not sure how to vote stop being so damn selfish and think about your children and their childrens futures. Get past your racist attitudes before you put us at the mercy of what I consider two of the most "incompetent" people in this country.
Republicans open your eyes! This is not the time for your need to be right! You are being stubborn at the cost of our country, knowing that you are supporting two people that will cost our country dearly if elected! I can be light hearted in this blog but the facts are this election is not a game. Your pick for Vice President is scary and a heart beat away from being the President of the US. She is the most dangerous thing I have ever seen happen to this country given the age and health of John McCain.
