:sarcasm: PROOF Obama is A TERRORIST SYMPATHIZER! BREAKING!!!!

[Convertee]

Obama has many times stated his admiration for a MAN who was THE LEADER of RADICAL TERRORIST GROUP Umkhonto we Sizwe.

The Umkhonto we Sizwe bombed MILITARY OBJECTIVES AS WELL AS CIVILIAN ONES from 1970 to 1990!

This man was ARRESTED and put in PRISON.

He was on the USA TERRORIST LIST up until last year!

THATS FAR MORE THAN AYERS HAS EVER BEEN OR DONE!

THIS MAN, THIS TERRORIST OBAMA SYMPATHIZES WITH?


Its Nelson Mandela.

Just like Ayers he reformed, and in his case became the president of his country.

He is adored by people everywhere.

So If McCain wants to find a history of terrorist sympathization, maybe he should attack Obama on his admiration of Nelson Mandela...

[JuniperLea]

18. LOL!!!

There's a bunch of early alerters here it appears. Perhaps there's a pill for pre-mature alerting?

:rofl:

[Rhiannon12866]

45. Whoa, LOL. I got it, and I do tend to skim at first read...

Maybe I've been on DU for too long, do you think? ;)

Good call, my friend... :applause:

Huh?

Hope you're not calling the OP a Freeper - did you bother to read the entire post?

Even you had only 12 posts at one time.

[MnFats]

6. Didn't Bush meet Mandela at some point? Condi Rice?

take out the U.N. --- he spoke there! every country in the world is just as guilty!

10. Read the entire OP before you hit that 'alert' button

The OP makes a very valid point.

[Aviation Pro]

16. My bad knee jerk reaction, my apologies to the OP.....

...the good thing about us is we can admit when we're wrong.

[FlyingSquirrel]

14. Not exactly sure if his intention is disruption

Seems like if you read the whole post, he's trying to say that Nelson Mandela was considered a "terrorist", and yet most people now admire him for what he did in the face of the African Government.

Hard to get the real point though. Definitely not gonna go well that's for sure.

You already completed the requested action. :hi:

[nickgutierrez]

8. I'm not about to defend Ayers, on any level. (READ THE WHOLE POST, PEOPLE.)

But that's a hell of a point about Mandela. It bears repeating.

[The Magistrate]

24. A Pleasure To See You About The Place, Sir

In years to come you will be able to tell the young ones you were young in interesting times....

[nickgutierrez]

28. That's a Chinese curse, as I recall.

But yes, these are interesting times. Hopefully, they don't get too much more interesting in the days ahead.

9. Rule of thumb. Don't start your weekend drinking until after sundown on Friday.

It'll change your life.

[lapfog_1]

20. However, as my drunken uncle would tell me... "It's always sundown SOMEWHERE!" - n/t

[Hugabear]

11. Please, everybody - read the ENTIRE post before hitting 'alert'

n/t

[nini]

19. That's what I was thinking

the responses threw me off.


boy, I'd hate to be a newbie here these days :scared:

[whistler162]

12. Worse than that as a college professor he taught

the writings of revolutionaries and traitors.

revolutionaries against the British government.
traitors to the British throne.

[nini]

13. On edit

I must learn to not let other posters cloud the meaning of posts :D

yes, Mandela !!

[Bicoastal]

15. Welcome to DU, and a word of practical advice.

A lot of people had kneejerk reactions to your thread--but you're new, and we're besieged by trolls right now (because we're winning), so people might easily misinterpret your point.

Bottom line--it may be a little too early to start a "Gotcha--I sound anti-Obama but I'm really for him" thread. Wait until you're a little more established here.

:hi:

[JuniperLea]

21. Sound advice, Bicoastal

Pretty funny thread though!

[NightWatcher]

23. or add a " :sarcasm:" so that people read before judging you wrongly

[Matariki]

30. Or people could quit blaming the OP and take responsibility for their silly knee jerk reactions

;-)

[melody]

26. The sarcasm icon is your friend

:sarcasm:

[trumad]

34. No need for the Sarcasm thingy...

people just need to read the whole OP.

[melody]

42. There is always need for the sarcasm thingy

Take it from someone who got into an extended argument with someone over a couple of sarcastic posts that were clearly tongue-in-cheek.

[sniffa]

27. Welcome to DU

Good OP. :hi:

[JuniperLea]

29. Hey sniffa!

This could be your new DUBFF!!

:rofl:

[Convertee]

31. :sarcasm:

Calm down everyone.


Also another idea.....


McCain knows Obama doesn't he, He serves on a kind of Comittee with him, they've worked on bills together, he's even called Obama, "My Friend" hasn't he?

So if Obama is a Terrorist Sympathizer then McCain is a Terrorist Sympathizer Sympathizer.

[NightWatcher]

32. HA, McSame works with a terra-ist. Good One

[LoKnLoD]

36. My ..

My my, how unmavericky of McCain.

Welcome to DU!

[Billy Burnett]

33. Birds of a feather.

[Essene]

35. not really constructive, but i respect the point =D

[David__77]

37. To be accurate, Mandela never "reformed." He did not need to.

The military struggle against apartheid fascism was just and correct in all its manifestations, from the borderlands to the townships. Umkhonto we Sizwe was integrated with the state's armed forces as per the peace agreements.

[redqueen]

38. Hahahaha
