We’re locking this
and a little nostalgia
What was your favorite memorabilia from the 2008 election? And do you still look at it everyday?
with some fantasy mixed in
6. Memories of a clean campaign that I managed
We spent the least amount of money among six candidates, and got by far the most votes per dollar spent on the campaign.
And as for Teh Gays
More fierce advocating! “‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ feedback sought from spouses”
WTF business is it of theirs?
Does anybody see how fucking degrading that is to us? OMG how will you be impacted by having nasty dirty homos serving next to you, Mr. Soldier? And you Mrs. Soldier’s Wife? Kiddies? Household pets? You have an opinion too… After all, this is always about how the existence of Teh Gays affects everyone else.
“Fierce Advocate” my fucking ass.

B0bots ponder Beck’s rally
Valid concern gets dismissed
Anyone else faintly chilled at the numbers of people at the Beck rally?
while the most popular thread counteracts the chill with other orchestrate events photos – Obama’s
Impressed by Beck’s attendance? I got some pictures for you. . .
photos from other well financed, choreographed events such as the stadium speech and the inauguration follow
which was addressed here
It was two years ago tonight,
The most exciting thing I have ever witnessed. The Democratic Convention at Mile High Stadium.
Just where is that hope, enthusiasm and excitement now?
best answer
6. It’s been sucked up by 310 million tits.
and a very good question
This fucking shit pisses me off! Where the hell is OUR rally? Why
do these right-wing fuckers always get to be center stage? Where are our rallies? Who’s speaking for us?
Funny how Sharpton is not even mentioned – even as the press covered this as “dueling rallies”
and going as far as
About ready to bail
I don’t know folks, today’s Glenn Beck rally just about did it.
Let’s not downplay the size of the crowd – it was humongous. Lot of people out there amenable to Beck’s message. But what is that message? Unite and pray more.
Well what the hell does that mean?….
While anger makes race-baiting sweet
Dear Beck Followers, Your President Is An African American. Get The Fuck Over It.
Marching won’t change his race.
Dear B0bots: you have exhausted this topic in 2008. Flinging it now won’t change how people feel about Obama. Or you.
Meanwhile, Mr Meow Mix Jr keeps hitting Social Security with all the wingnut talking points
) Stop pretending. Abolish the regressive Social Security tax.
and
6. The problem is that it’s the most unfair, regressive tax in America.
….The other issue is that the huge baby boom generation is getting ready to retire. That places a larger tax burden on younger workers, who are smaller in number than the boomers. That threatens government’s ability to take from social security and fund other parts of the budget because not as much surplus SS tax income will be available. Permalink
and check the responses to Quote of the Day
OBAMA “I’m making decisions that are not necessarily good for the nightly news & next election, but
for the next generations.”
– President Obama, in an interview on NBC News.

This is the bestthat got B0bots angry
46. That is an astonishingly delusional and egotistical thing to say…
The statement is either very defensive (“I am no good at explaining anything”), very elitist (“nobody at present is able to understand my BIG wisdom”) or, it is simply wrong. It also echoes Bush on Iraq and the “War on Terror”.
In any case, this ain’t any kind of “man of the people” talk.
“History will prove me right, even though you don’t get it”…
Yeah, sure.
Trying to select the race cards
What is and isn’t evidence of racism in attacks against Obama.
it’s an honorable attempt but gives raise to answers like this one
“Thus, calling Obama a socialist is not evidence of racism.” I disagree
Yup. Marx, Engels, Lenin and the Rosenbergs. All black. Ah, 2008 will never really go away.
and the DUdie
goes to this answer to the question

Where did the “Yes We Can” spirit go?
19. The left killed it
Adding injury to insult.

I don’t know how you do it Edge – I enjoy your posts, but I invariably end up scratching my head in wonderment – how do these people get through the average day – working with others, paying the mortgage and bills – you know the mundane business of everyday living.

Without Obama, Beck would still be a third rate blow-hard looking for an audience, and without Beck & Co., Sharpton would have continued his slide into irrelevance.
Dangerous times IMO. People are desperate & hungry for leadership, and that never seems to turn out well.

My Great Awakening – I’m Sorry Hillary (and America), I was So Wrong
I voted for Obama in ’08 because I Believed.
I believed in the Dream (I thought he had)
I believed in his words , the Dream that he claimed that he had for a new America.
I had the audacity to Hope.
I believed hat a young Black man man who came from the humble beginnings that he came from most certainly would bring America back on track – help bring equalize the calculated disparity in wealth and class that has been killing middle class America for a decade.
I Believed.
And I was so very wrong.
I rejected Hillary because of her ties and to big business. Then I watched as Obama gave trillions to the Bankers while tens of millions remained out of work,
I rejected Hillary because Obama promised to end the war in a year and bring our men and women home.. Then I watched as he build up forces in another country. I watched as a year and a half past and the useless war continued and our men and women continued to die and be forever maimed , just somewhere else.
I rejected Hillary because I felt she was too calculating – too shrewd. I felt she wasn’t honest – wouldn’t keep her word. Then I watched as Obama gave away the Public Option , Jobs Creation, Banking reform, Credit card Reform, mortgage reform – to not make waves. To keep peace in the Senate while the people continued bleed their lives away.
I rejected Hillary because she accepted finds from Rupert Murdoch while Obama got his funding from a growing and very real grass roots movement. Then I watched as Obama severed all ties to Obama for America and left them all hanging in the wind while he populated the Treasury with the very same Bankers who caused our financial crisis.
And I gave up all Hope and knew that the Dream was well and truly dead and I was going to give up voting once again – this year and two years from now.
Until this morning when I had my road to Damascus moment.
And realized that I was wrong.
There was another option and I should have chosen it two years ago.
Democratic Party – you put Ms. Clinton back om the ballot on ’12 . You put that bad girl back on and I’ll be her biggest supporter . Your only chance of getting my Democratic vote (and I suspect the votes of millions more like me) in ’12 is going to be Clinton.
Obama sold me (and us out) – that’s become clear to me.
It’s time for a real Change.
Give me a Choice in ’12.

You have to wonder, why are the primaries being rehashed so often and so long? By Bobots.

Too bad they want to shut down the debate and turn it into a worship site for Teh One. It just moves those of us in the reawakening zone to move further away from Dems and into solid Independents (not Republicans, mind you
