Post subject:  This Whole Obama Phenomenon Is A FARCE
Now I was watching FOX News the other night and witnessing all this Obama Brouhaha with people in attendance fainting every time this guy yelled out CHANGE CHANGE HOPE HOPE which all this guy ever says now in his speeches and nothing more and at 1 point, he stopped to sneeze and when he did, the audience fucking applauded as though no one has ever sneezed like that in their entire life.. :roll: Now I'm sorry but you know what this is starting to remind me of?? The whole Reverend Jim Jones Cult following minus all the murdering that took place a long time ago and it's hard NOT to notice this and at this point, it really is starting to become a farce of monumental proportions.. Anyone else starting to feel kind of like this or are all the Obama supporters on this site brainwashed to??

Nah, you figured us out. The large majority of democrats who are supporting Obama are all mindless drones. Not one of us could read his proposals if we tried. Those people you see fainting represent every single one of us. Even though thousands attend his rallies and a grand total of (apparently) one has fainted at them, the rest of us are doing everything we can to not faint. Why, I am using smelling salts even now as I sit here typing this.

I suppose I can see how people can be jealous of a charismatic leader, but you know, those of us supporting Obama just aren't smart enough to understand all those hundreds of position papers he has on his web site, detailing his experience and understanding of the issues. We just have an impossible time making an intelligent decision between two candidates based on many details.

Yep, you got it. It's all brainwashing. You must be so damned fucking smart to be immune.

So you watched Fox News and came away with a negative impression of the leading democratic candidate? That's no surprise. Anytime you have a large group of people pressed together, somebody will faint, whether it's a political rally or a black friday sale.

Turn off the fox news bkb, you're better than that. If you must watch a cable news outlet, try msnbc.

It suggests the candidate isn't a brutal kill-bot hell-bent on human enslavement, so a great reason to vote for them!

I'm old enough to remember the election of 1980 when there was an unpopular president in office (Carter). He was challenged by someone who had great charisma, gave wonderful speeches, and spoke of optomism for the future. That was, of course, the conservative's darling Ronald Reagan.

However, now that the democrats have a candidate with similar attributes in a similar circumstance, it's interesting to see the republicans whine and complain that he's just charisma with no substance.

I remember Reagan's "substance." He used to tell stories about welfare queens driving cadillacs, and how trees cause pollution, and how he served in the military during wartime. None of these things were true, of course.

At least our charismatic candidate knows what he is talking about.

A farce? I have, wisely, learned to disregard the opinions of stodgy curmudgeons that supremely enjoy their state of stodginess.

Reagan did serve in the military during wartime. However, he was not an active combatant by any definition.

Yes, you're right, sorry. I'm remembering reading something where Reagan claimed to have been in action, but as he described it, people realized it was a scene from a movie he had been in.

As with pretty much any topic, BKB will latch on to the most sixth-grade argument he can find (this time, lo and behold, care of Fox News) and run it into the ground while the rest of us have moved on to deeper, more rational discussion.

Sadly enough, though, his post here reflects what we'll be hearing from the right, over and over again, for the next. eight. months.

Yeah. That's why I hope if Barack agrees to public financing, he puts an escape clause for when the right wing sends those 527 PAC's after him with a bunch of cheap stuff that McCain could never directly say and get away with but still a "wink wink, nudge nudge" situation with the Republicans. If he can get an escape clause, I think Barack can fight those bastards tooth and nail because he is raising more money than any politician ever. And this time around, I really feel that there is a much better grassroots organization, though I do wish his website had a forum instead of just a blog. A forum would allow his supporters to be on the look out for lies and cheap shots so that we could email the mainstream media in massive numbers to correct them on their false reporting, and force them to apologize on the air.

Everybody needs to know McCain's predicament before they hypothesize an Obama predicament:

The McCain campaign applied for matching public funds last fall, during a difficult fundraising period, to obtain collateral for a seven-figure line of credit. In early February, the McCain campaign tried to remove itself from public financing. However, FEC rules do not allow such a simple retreat in cases of public funds being used as collateral. Given the McCain campaign being potentially stuck using public funds, their campaign apparatus began to publicly lambaste the Obama campaign for reneging on its earlier promise -- without spelling out their side of details. Basically, they are trying to make the best of a hard place.

When the corporate media is putting the hard sell on a character like Obama, you can be sure he's already been bought and paid for in full.

With Oprah as Barrack's Rosie O'Donnell, now it's just up to us to buy enough Obamatron2000's to make this sales campaign a success even bigger than Tickle Me Elmo!

First of all fool, I don't hate black people and have worked with black people in the 3 jobs I've held for over 15 years and have gotten along with everyone one of them perfectly fine.. You people really do amaze me that you refuse to even acknowledge what I'm saying is true and what I've seen as not being sort of odd, whether it's on FOX News or some other news channel(and for the record, MSNBC has run this as well).. The guy sneezes and everyone applauds?? Why would everyone applaud because a guy sneezes?? Why?? What's so special about him sneezing VS any other candidate sneezing?? Seriously?? And Angela?? One must consider whether you would even post on this site if this particular board didn't exist?? It's movie website, yet, you only post on this board and maybe a couple of times on the watercooler board and no other board which I also find odd.. When the election is over after November, will you still remain on this site and perhaps post on other boards or will you remain the lone wolf on this board finding stuff to post about?? Just curious before you get your panties in a wad..

BKB makes new thread complaining that the people who follow Obama are fanatical kooks reminiscent of a dangerous cult who killed themselves.

Translation: BKB watched a Fox News piece that indicated that people who follow Obama are fanatical kooks reminiscent of a dangerous cult who killed themselves. BKB now has new opinion.

Translation: MSNBC and CNN have also made note of this as well as FOX News.. Now what?? You gonna give MSNBC and CNN a pass to on this and just bag on FOX news?? Look, you can't possibly deny that what I'm pointing out as well as the other news networks isn't kind of odd.. The Obama Phenomenon and all the applauding because he sneezes and when he faints doesn't look like a Cult of some sorts and clearly resembles one to.. WTF?? Are you blind to this or what???

Hate to burst your Obama loving bubble guy, but Obama didn't rescue me from shit... I will say 1 thing though: If this guy does end up becoming our President and were ever attacked again, were screwed cause this isn't the guy you want as our Commander in Chief in the event of another terrorist attack Groucho.. McCain might be up there in the years, but he's the 1 person I'd want backing us in the event of an attack based on his experience and Obama's NO EXPERIENCE and don't think the enemy isn't watching this election based on that alone.. How anyone could deny this is about as funny as all these sheep applauding a guy who sneezes and blows his freaking nose...

I'm confused why you think McCain would be better able to handle that type of crisis.

They are both men and I think both can think logically and listen to the military commanders opinions when such an event occurs again.

Apparently when a President listens to military leaders he attacks countries he's not "supposed" to attack.

So... Did Bush think logically? Or is what you just said wrong?
