Viral smear against Obama, Hillary supporter do you renounce
or are you secretly happy?

"Obama 'Frightens Me'. The Bible has warned us that 'A man will come from the East that will be charismatic in nature and have proposed solutions for all our problems and his rhetoric will attract many supporters!'


"When will our pathetic Nation quit turning their back on God and understand that this man is 'A Muslim'....First, Last and always....and we are AT WAR with the Muslim Nation, whether our
bleeding-heart, secular, Liberal friends believe it or not. This man fits every description from the Bible of the 'Anti-Christ'!

"Also, if you had any doubts that this stuff, no matter how wild-eyed, is having an impact: The share of Americans who believe Obama is a Muslim has doubled, according to the new NBC/WSJ poll, to 13%."

2. this is right wing garbage
Hillary has nothing to do with this, and her supporters are under no obligation to even acknowledge it.

That you have put the two into the same sentence is absolute fucking bullshit and unfortunatly what I've come to expect from a lot of Obama supporters.

3. It's not BS. Obama has been taking it from both sides for quite a while.

And if you haven't seen that, you haven't been paying attention.

It's in the Republicans best interests to run against Hillary, period.

14. right....
that's why the MSM has been kissing barrack's ass since day one....

The Republican's wetdream is to run against Obama. Why would they want to run against the Clintons? Afterall, they're the only Democrats to beat them in the last 30 years.

5. They forget the part
about the dude being killed by a blow to the head and coming back to life.

Ahh, the days when I used to be a Revelations junkie. :)

7. The nutcases should vote for Obama since they are so ready to be raptured up.
Wouldn't putting the anti-christ in office hasten their heavenly departure?

Since when is Obama a "man from the East"?

10. Why would Clinton have to repudiate this bullshit?
This smear came from the puke machine and has nothing to do with Clinton, her campaign or any of her supporters.

If you do feel she should reject this maybe Obama should come out and demand that Clinton reject the "endorsements" of mAnn Coulter and Rush Limpballs from a few weeks ago.

Is anyone else getting tired of all this "do you repudiate, reject or whatever" shit that comes out everytime some moron opens their gaping maw to spew shit? It's happening on both sides and is very bizarre.

11. Common sense tells any intelligent person that this is RW
Talking Points.

Trying to smear Hillary with this is just as low as the person
who uttered this junk.

13. It would take someone with supernatural powers to renounce all the
BS emails that are circulating on the internet right now. Obama is certainly not the only candidate that is being featured. A search of Hillary Clinton on Snopes brings up a list with 43 hits.

http://search.atomz.com/search/?sp-q=hillary+clinton&getit=Go&sp-a=00062d45-sp00000000&sp-advanced=1&sp-p=all&sp-w-control=1&sp-w=alike&sp-date-range=-1&sp-x=any&sp-c=100&sp-m=1&sp-s=0

No one enjoys receiving this crap and no one is secretly happy about the accusations, regardless which candidate the support.
