Their at it again...another Racist Republican becomes known for his Anti-Obamian antics. Joe Wilson disrespected our President and called him a lier in front of the nation. Another Racist, Southern, Radical, Right Wing Extremist, Republican who hates President Obama. America has no room for such an intolerant person. He needs to go. He is Anti-American...period. In this country, racism should not be tolerated. Joe Wilson’s Racist Rant Author: Jill Tubman Looking into the background of Rep. Joe Wilson, R-South Carolina, after his heckling of President Obama last night, I came across this:
Joe also has been a member of the Columbia World Affairs Council, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Sinclair Lodge 154, Jamil Temple, Woodmen of the World, Sons of Confederate Veterans, ….
This is an organization that, as the SPLC has detailed assiduously, has been taken over in the past decade by radical neo-Confederates who favor secession and defend slavery as a benign institution.
[...]
Now, add this to the fact that Joe Wilson, as a state legislator, was one of only seven Republicans to go against their own party and vote to keep the Dixie Rebel flag flying over the South Carolina capitol:
The flag came down that year after Republicans in both houses went for a compromise that would put it on Statehouse grounds at the Confederate Soldier’s monument. The “Magnificent Seven” of Senators who voted to keep the flag up included current Congressman Joe Wilson (who I served with in the 218th Infantry Brigade of the National Guard.)
A clearer picture of why this congressman might so virulently breach protocol and loudly interrupt an African-American president’s speech to Congress by calling him a liar does start to emerge, doesn’t it?www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2009/09/more-on-obama-heckler-joe-wilsons-racist-rant/

And again...now, their going with Jewish Stereotypes... The Anti-Defamation League is up in arms over two South Carolina Republicans’ revival of an old stereotype. This week, in an act of vicious anti-Semitism, Edwin O. Merwin Jr. and James S. Ulmer, chairmen of the Bamberg County and Orangeburg County, South Carolina, Republican parties, respectively, co-authored an op-ed in which they accused Jews of taking good care of their money. “Jews who are wealthy,” they wrote, “got that way not by watching dollars but instead by taking care of the pennies and the dollars taking care of themselves.” Then they compounded the offense by suggesting that South Carolina Republican Senator Jim DeMint shares those Hebraic virtues.www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2009-10-21/south-carolinas-jewish-outrage/

Republican Racism...the gift that keeps on giving (unfortunately)... Lake Havasu City Councilman Says He's "Just a Little Jewish" When it Comes to City Manager's ContractAt a meeting to discuss whether or not to fire Lake Havasu City Manager Richard Kaffenberger, a member of the City Council had an interesting excuse for how he handles city finances.
He's "just a little Jewish."
At least that's what Councilman Lee Barnes told the city council members in a special meeting last night.
"Excuse my action, but I'm just a little Jewish to be able to do this," was the exact phrase, which caused an uproar in the meeting room, according to a story on the Jewish Web site VIN.blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/valleyfever/2009/10/lake_havasu_city_councilman_sa.php

Hey Alfie, I don't think so...even if every Republican wins, it would have nothing to do with Obama. In New York, the only Republican dropped out of the race (she was a Pro-Choice liberal Republican). In New Jersey, they had that big time corruption scandal that had nothing to do with President Obama. In Virginia, the Dem Gov was losing anyway, so that one didn't have anything to do with Obama. What race are you referring to?

Now, that the Republicans have won, the Obama Health Plan (the new plan with government paid abortions and euthanasia in it-and don't you deny it) has no chance of passing.

However we want to look at it....The people were heard yesterday....I dont see obama winning next term unless things change...his way of running things that is The NJ Gov election had nothing to do with Obama. It had to do with the corruption in Newark. The VA election was odd in that the Dem Gov DISAGREED with President Obama on health care Reform and The Republican agreed with President Obama on wanting Reform! And they both told Palin to stay away. It seems that Palin is toxic...the only race she was allowed to get involved in, the both The Conservative AND The Republican (who was a liberal at heart) lost. Where ever Palin is, there loses Conservatism and Republicans. Look at how she torpedoed McCain in 2008. Anyway, polls were done and guess what "the people's voices" said? That the overwhelming majority of the election voters didn't vote against The President's policies last night (because Governors don't decide National Policy and the only major race where National Policy is decided, Congressional Seat, was won by a Democrat in a historically Republican area). They said they voted against the candidates. And, the winners were who? Christie, a MODERATE Republican who said he WON'T do anything to oppose ABORTION and who ran with a PRO CHOICE running mate! He believes in "state funded" vouchers for school! Socialism! Plus, believes in Charter Schools! ACORN! Claims that illegal immigrants are NOT criminals! Is PRO CIVIL UNIONS for gays! McDonnell, a MODERATE Republican who is PR0-HEALTH CARE REFORM and who AGREES with President OBAMA (not with The Republican Party)! From Chuck Todd, Mark Murray, Domenico Montanaro, and Ali WeinbergMcDonnell vs. the GOP:...if you carefully look at the ads McDonnell is airing in Virginia, they really don’t gibe with message we’re hearing from many Republicans. One McDonnell ad features Democrat Sheila Johnson, who calls McDonnell a “bipartisan leader who gets results.” Another ad touts the Republican’s desire to boost transportation and infrastructure spending (something we really didn’t hear from the GOP the stimulus debate). And another ad has McDonnell talking to the camera, saying that 90% of his measures in the Virginia legislature “passed with strong bipartisan support.”He's said some pretty crazy things (like women who work destroy family values, etc...), But, I like the man on abortion! AND! I like his economic plans! Very "Obama-like"! I think Virginia chose the right man and that President Obama was wrong to support Deeds. He was pro choice and seemed weak on crime. And Owens in NY who is of course a Democrat in a traditionally Republican owned part of NY. Do the math...all three that won agree with President Obama and disagree with The Republicans. The American People chose more Pro-Obama politicians despite their party affiliation. Who is that victory for?

With President Obama. Alfie, The Democrats were the only ones who won Congressional Seats in the election (they picked up 2 more seats). ;D Fact is, The Republican Leadership itself doesn't see this as having to do with Obama...

However we want to look at it....The people were heard yesterday....I dont see obama winning next term unless things change...his way of running things that is Hmmm...let's see now; GDP up 3+ points
Stock market back at around 10,000 level (DOW)
Unemployment rate still decreasing
Bailed out banks payed back funds in record times and banks that were once set to fail and collapse (meaning that taxpayers would have to pay for them) are now making Billions of dollars of profits
We've killed Taliban Leaders plus Osama Bin Ladin's 2nd in command (his son) and are taking the war to Al Quaeda in Pakistan (no more wasting time in Iraq)
The Big 3 Automakers are saved from failing and are now HIRING people and expanding factories
The FoxNews owned Wall Street Journal says that The President's Stimulus Package is what stabilized and saved the economy (and that's with only 10% of it distributed)
Brings The United States the honor of it's President being awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for his diplomatic work
AND...he has a 53% Approval Rating from Gallup for the 3rd Quarter of his administration (still higher than the percentage that voted for him).And this is running the Country wrong...how?

You need to apologize to EWTN for calling them a bunch of liars. Show me which bill had abortion in it when EWTN said it did months ago? This bill being PROPOSED is a new bill (not the one that EWTN was commenting on), so they are still liers because there was no abortion funding in the bill they talked about Aie. A lier is a lier is a lier is a lier NO MATTER who they are...Catholic or not.

Why is abortion mentioned in the new bill, especially after all of the anti-abortion people who protested against the first bill? It's out in the open now. The Democrats have been forced to admit it, that's all.

A lier is a lier is a lier is a lier NO MATTER who they are...Catholic or not. Excuse me! Why is abortion mentioned in the new bill, especially after all of the anti-abortion people who protested against the first bill? See that? The NEW bill. You just admit that this bill is different than the one that EWTN was talking about! And...as per President Obama's wants and his statement that abortion wouldn't be covered, there was an amendment added to ensure that it wouldn't be covered and it was done by both Democrats AND Republican (Bipartisan support). President Obama got his way! ANDDDD... The Bill has just passed! Not only did it pass, but it got bipartisan support with a Republican joining The Democrats (despite the 39 Democrats who voted against it)! ANDDDDD... Guess who cast the deciding vote for The Democrats? Guess? Bill Owens! Know who he is? The "newly" elected Congressman of the 23rd District of New York! And we all know who messed things up for the Conservatives there, right? Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. Thanks to their vehement opposition to the Republican candidate, they managed to sway all the votes over to the Democrat (who was losing before those 3 stuck their noses in New York politics). So once again, Republicans shoot themselves in the foot. Thanks to President Obama and The Democratic Party and to the one Republican who voted with them and to Sarah Palin and to Rush Limbaugh and to Fox News (who helped destroy the Republican candidate in New York giving the Democrats the one vote they needed to have the majority vote), America, for the first time since it was first brought up for debate, has a Health Insurance Bill that will cover all Americans. President Obama has done more in 11 months than Bush did in 8 years with respect to Health Care (which was the number 1 priority in America). Now he can finally get off of Health Care and attack the unemployment issue (which is over 10%). No more Republican distractions. No more Tea Bagger Parties. No more ACORN. No more nothing...just more work. Saved the auto industry, created The Stimulus that Fox News said stabilized The Economy, killed major leaders in the Terrorist organizations that attacked us, made us #1 again in the world's eyes, won the Nobel Peace Prize and passed Health Care! Obama! Obama! Obama!

www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/11/07/house-passes-health-care/House Passes Health Care BillIn a victory for President Barack Obama, the Democratic-controlled House narrowly passed landmark health care legislation Saturday night to expand coverage to tens of millions who lack it and place tough new restrictions on the insurance industry. Republican opposition was nearly unanimous.
The 220-215 vote cleared the way for the Senate to begin a long-delayed debate on the issue that has come to overshadow all others in Congress.
A triumphant Speaker Nancy Pelosi likened the legislation to the passage of Social Security in 1935 and Medicare 30 years later -- and Obama issued a statement saying, "I look forward to signing it into law by the end of the year."
"It provides coverage for 96 percent of Americans. It offers everyone, regardless of health or income, the peace of mind that comes from knowing they will have access to affordable health care when they need it," said Rep. John Dingell, the 83-year-old Michigan lawmaker who has introduced national health insurance in every Congress since succeeding his father in 1955.
In the run-up to a final vote, conservatives from the two political parties joined forces to impose tough new restrictions on abortion coverage in insurance policies to be sold to many individuals and small groups. They prevailed on a roll call of 240-194.
Ironically, that only solidified support for the legislation, clearing the way for conservative Democrats to vote for it.

Agreed, but we're talking about politicians here in particular. So, you got who, Joe Biden and Harry Reed? That's it? I've pointed out racism since the election of the first Black President.
