7. Ok, I peeked...
And you know what? I hope they do ask those questions. It will only make them look even more bigoted & stupid in public. It will give the rest of the audience a sense of what "true American patriots" they are. Obama will handle himself just fine. I have no worries about that. Besides, I'm betting that no one will even dare to ask any of those questions because they're all blowhards.

12. they're all blowhards
And therein is the real truth about Freepers. No one in their real life will listen to anything they say so that go to the website so they can feel they are taken seriously. Pathetic really.

8. I won't contaminate my computer going there.
Let them do their ignorant worst.

Obama can handle them with one hand tied behind his back.

9. DNC's token minority? That's 100% better than the RNC in the Senate.

So we are, for lack of all else, perfect, because we have no power...

13. I despise Obama, but these questions are softballs
for any Dem. They're all either intended to race bait or divert attention from Bush.

15. "Despise?" Wow.
Edited on Tue Sep-26-06 07:57 PM by dannofoot
I can think of few human beings that I "despise." That's one hateful word you've used there.

Can you possibly clue us in to why you use one of the most awful words in the language to describe your feelings towards Senator Obama?

18. No, the word DESPISE has nothing to do with HATE.
But you are going to have an opportunity to defend your hate baiting. You are going to have a chance to explain why you have adopted Freeper tactics. Just wait a moment.

Obama believes in theocracy. I despise theocracy. Obama believes that gay people should have less rights than all other citizens. I despise people who believe that gay people should have less rights than all other citizens. Obama believes that my political party must compete for the support of evangelicals. I despise people who think my party must compete for the support of evangelicals. Obama believes national politics should be a religious game. I despise people who believe national politics should be a religious game.

Now, the big question: Why doesn't dannofoot despise Obama's religious bigotry? And why is dannofoot compelled to avoid the truth in defense of hatred? And, perhaps most importantly, why is dannofoot hate baiting?

20. "Freeper tactics" -LOL!
I ask someone why they use a hateful word like "despise"...and Bingo! I'm a Freeper! Hope your knee didn't hit you too hard..."Hate-baiting?" You used the word "despise" against a decent human being, not me.

I despise theocratic thinking as well. Please quote Obama's statements in support of a theocracy, since you state that "Obama believes in theocracy."

Regarding gay marriage, Obama has stated that he "does not understand people who say that gay marriage threatens the sanctity of the institution of marriage." He fully supports civil unions and legal rights granted to those unions, though his faith precludes his full support of gay marriage. This is in line, I believe, with the majority of Democrats in office, whom, I assume, you must therefore also despise.

Obama believes that the Democratic party should compete for ALL votes, and that does indeed include the Evangelical vote. What, you think that Democrats should simply surrender to that part of America without a fight? Last I checked, we need every vote possible. Or is it a "moral victory" to lose elections again yet not pay attention to these voters? If you "despise people who believe national politics should be a religious game," than you're going to have plenty of those moral victories to savor, while your candidates come up short. It's not a "game"...it's called engaging them to see our side of the equation.

Finally, I don't "despise Obama's religious bigotry" because I haven't seen it. Perhaps that's your windmill, but I find nothing despicable about someone who can lead our country out of the right-wing direction it's been going. And I "avoid the truth in defense of hatred"? Good God, we're talking about Barack Obama, not Donald Rumsfeld, although you seem to think they are level in terms of evil.

Finally, you, Thyme, can have the last word, as I have two kids in need of some homework supervision. Have at it. Certainly you can easily position me as hateful a theocrat as that despicable Barack Obama.

21. Obama cites Christianity as his only reason for hating gay people
Edited on Tue Sep-26-06 09:35 PM by BuyingThyme
who wish to marry and enjoy life. His political position is determined solely by his hateful interpretation of the Bible. He is a theocrat.

Now, take a guy like Jimmy Carter. He's an evangelical who understands that his deeds, not his bible, are what makes him what he is. Obama is incapable of understanding such a concept.
