I must write about John McCain a lot.

I just got done putting up a badge for Barack Obama in the sidebar because that’s who I’ll be voting for come this fall. When I checked to see if it was showing up properly I noticed that the Google ad further down was a flash ad for John McCain. It’s been showing up a lot on various SEB pages as of late to the extent that you’d almost think I was endorsing him, which is part of why I put up the Obama badge.

I haven’t checked into if it’s possible to tell Google’s AdSense that you don’t want certain ads to be displayed on your site, but I might look into it given the frequency that the McCain ad shows up. Hilariously it shows up most often on pages where I’m bitching about what a hypocritical sell out he is.

Get with it, Les.  No publicity is bad publicity nowadays:  the meaning of “good” and “bad” has shifted to “talked about” and “not talked about”.  Content is meaningless- what matters is if you are seen and heard.

I really like America. And i felt sorry for a large amount of you over the past years. I do really hope Obama will win the election. And I believe he will do a great job for your country.

Neither of them are worth voting for. You got Bush III or a nigger, loose-loose. Clinton wasn’t much better but at least she was worth voting for compared to them.

Hopefully this year we will see record votes for the independent candidates.

At least the theocrat Huckabee isn’t a choice, America would REALLY be screwed with him at the wheel.

I’m pretty sure you can set Adsense to block ads you don’t want.  Me, I find it more entertaining to just let whatever comes up come up, as I get a kick out of seeing what weird combos result.  And if I get lucky someone will click on the ads for woo, religious nonsense, or what have you and little old secularist, rationalist me will get a tiny bit of their hard earned kook money.

Matt, if you find you can’t stomach Moloch then the good news is that he does use an official SEB account so you can click on that little icon of a person with a speech balloon next to it to go to his profile and then select IGNORE THIS MEMBER. The one drawback is that you’ll also need to register an account if you want to make use of it.

Most of us just write off 90% of what Moloch says anyway. His bigotry is annoying, but he’s not so disruptive that I feel justified in banning him. I’d rather have it out in the open where we can be aware of it than hidden anyway.

sadie jane- get around, get around, I get around.  Where do I get around?  Oh, you probably mean my Swedish flag.  I’m afraid it’s just the EE bug that’s getting around, not me.  In any case, I’ll be in the Bay Area for five weeks starting Monday if you, or any other Bastards or Bastardettes want to get together.  Drop me a line- I’d love to meet all of you in person.  Even Moloch, who is misguided but intelligent, still young, and hopefully impressionable.  I am probably the only one here who has talked with both Holocaust survivors and former SS officers, so I’m pretty well informed, at second hand to be sure, about the nightmare of fascism.  I know that followers of the American and British (does the name “Oswald Mosley” ring a bell?) versions of “Nazism Lite” think they can do “better” than Hitler, but this “I’ve got mine” mentality, whether pertaining to money, race, nationality, sex, religion, or whatever else, is a quick road to perdition for all of us.

Re misspelling: is there a dictionary of internet misspelling yet?  It could be interesting, because there are patterns.  I keep running across the same words: “definately”, “loose” instead of “lose”, “their” and “your” instead of “they’re” and “you’re”, “it’s” as a possessive… By the way, if anyone cares: an easy way to remember that possessive “its” has no apostrophe is this: his, hers, and its all have no apostrophes.  Sorry to be a grammar fascist, but at least we don’t use Zyklon-B.

Cubelai- you might well trust most of us here to vote for the better candidate, but Americans in general?  While I’m hopeful that the Bush administration will remain a bad enough taste in the mouths of most voters until November to ensure that the right side wins, one can never underestimate the astounding ability of the Democrats, and liberal parties everywhere, to shoot themselves in the foot so many times that they once again snatch defeat from the arms of victory.  Hold your thumbs for us (as the wacky Austrians say).

And if I keep singing, I get “the rocket’s red glare”.  No thanks, we’ve had enough of that.

I am SO looking forward to gloating at Moloch in fifteen different ways when Obama wins the general election.  In fact, just by getting Obama nominated, we’ve already beaten the sorry ass of every bigot like him.

Ah, shame, why would we want to do that. The different sides talk little enough with each other as it is, except when they shout abuse.

I dont vote. Just the idea of anyone saying I put my support on any dirty politician is out of the question.

This entire election is a farce. Mccain will win and the fact that both a woman and a black man are in the same election and only on the democratic ticket strengthens my belief that as a citizen, I am only being played.

I worked inner city and I sat on the couch during the Los Angeles riots watching new throughout the night deeply sadened by the attitudes represented that somehow it is ok that blacks kill whites because of the color of their skin. 79 white people killed.

I went to work the next day after the riots and a black “friend” and his philipeno girl friend who I had spent an entire day the week before helping to get his motorcylce from impound in LA,( i was licensed he was not) wouldn’t look at me or talk to me. Thats when I was given insight. Its a team sport to hate. As fireman I walked into many locations to save the life of someone only to have to worry about my safety because I was white. We were even shot at from time to time.

If you thought their were riots before, wait till Obama loses and dirty politics is discovered to his disfavor. We already have the whites spewing hate because of Obamas preacher.

Although there are great black men even in the worst neighborhoods that are outstanding people of great character, with great families, there are sufficient cooks and hate mongers that will take to the streets.

I have listen to the youtube of Obamas pastor and it is the same rheoric. The fact that Obama was part of this inner city crowd for over 20 years does say something. Something very negative about his character.

Also, I certainly dont want a menstral woman that cries behind the war button either. Most Americans read hillaries face and think she is a bitch. I dont like her because of the corruption that swirls about her and her husband. You can see her money making opportunits drive pushing here to be president.

Mccain has come out and spoke against the military interest groups and did a revealing special about it. But this is just propaganda seeded before the election. We know he will cater to the big money of war as he is from a military family.

The killing of people in a dessert for weapons of mass destruction that do not exist is unacceptable behavior for our country. The start of what appears to be a new ww3 against muslim countries and their raising of oil prices to stop the US from stockpiling war reserves bothers me when joined to the sound of the ecomony intenionally being depressed as it was in ww2.

More people will look to the military for work if they don’t have a job making weapons at home.

If I would be voting, I would do a write in of an independant. Mccain has this wrapped up as the election was wrigged from the very start in favor of republicans and continueing war.

Mook.

If I am a racist then the world is screwed.

I have risked my life to help my fellow black brother. I have lived in a black neighborhood (ethiopian) and have been good friends with my neighbors and although I have moved away, I have been invited and vist often, including weddings and holidays. when I marry they will be invited too. I moved there because I wanted to learn who these people are as I was impressed by their morality which was higher than most people I met.

In the US, I have entered in the midst of gangland gun fights before police arrive to admister to shooting victims not knowing if the next bullet was for me.

So if I am a racists because I discriminate between a good black person and a criminal black person, call me a low life.

I do not give a free pass to unjustified hate rhetoric that leads to murder. The LA riots receievd a wink and was swept under the rug but it stands as proof that not only does this hate rhetoric exists, it leads to racial muder and civil unrest.

Obama attended and was part of a group of people who preach this same hate. Now he stands on the threshold of being the commnader and cheif of the most deadly military in the world. If there is another LA riot will Obam hesitate, so that his brothers can seek revenge for slavery that I had no part of.

Maybe the Hitler incident has me on edge, but anyone who can control their emotions or maintain a distance from groups that have racist superioty complexes, murder and coupe rhetoric, should not be handed the control of nuclear and military capabilities.

They have shown that they can demonize the entire white community and speak of fighting them. They could decide to demonize a foriegn country and kill them at will. They might do something stupid like say those seven eleven owners over charge us, so lets level India rather than work out a dispute.

It is not a good quality in a leader.

You suffer from labeling people more than I. So far you have tried to get people to think I am a silence of the lamb murderer of women. Jeffery Dahmer blamed his athiest viewpoints as the reason why he could heartlessly kill yet I would never accuse posters here of being murders.

So you call me a murderer. Talk about dehumanizing another for your own ego. It becomes more clear to me why there is a gun against the cute dogs head as your choice for showing a picture of who you are. Did you ever think about that mook?

Racist I am not. Bad people are bad people and if they join a group that helps me identify them more easily.

Komosel Israel Posted on 06/07/2008 at 01:16 PM

One more thing to add. Will Obama after he gets elected appoint others to powerful office positions, that were memebers of the same church and way of viewing races.

He wil bring his own team of “God damn America” racists?

Maybe in the future we will have a woman or black candidate of quality and character, that can control their hate and their emotions but these two have behaved like clowns. It is a rigged election for Mcain.

Komosei--

So some of your best friends are black. How novel. Frankly, when Obama wins and the likes of you experience serious feather-ruffling as a result, I can sit back, relax, and bask in the knowledge that our country is moving in the right direction.

This one is unfair, but I think the pictures of obama not putting his hand on his heart speak louder than the whole video.
