Does that mean that Rev. Wright, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are voting for McCain?

It's probable. Jesse Jackson hates Barack Obama because Obama talks extensively about personal responsibility. Rev. Wright was officially denounced by Barack, and Al Sharpton is a bigot. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they cast their ballots for McCain.

Don't bet on it.

Yeah, they probably will, but it really wouldn't shock me if they didn't vote for him. He ruins their hustles.

One thing I hope to enjoy if Obama is elected is seeing the white and black race hustlers explode like a zit given he's bad for business for them. Maybe Stormfront will give a section of their site to Jackson, Sharpton, et al, so they can get a coordinated game plan going to get things back to normal.

You gotta just love, for example, Jesse's remarks off the record but unknowingly on a hot mic on FOX just following Obama's Father's Day Speech at a black church.

YouTube - Jesse Jackson on Barack Obama; "I Wanna Cut His Nuts Off"

And it was Sharpton on FOX trying to distance himself to CYA himself from the damage and keep his own game going, hehe.

Here was Obama's Father's Day Speech that Jesse was disparaging:

YouTube - Barack Obama's Speech on Father's Day

It's over 20 minutes but brilliant from start to finish and the things he was saying really needed to be said IMO to get the fatherlessness tragedy in the black community corrected and held accountable, especially as they concern setting high standards, quitting cop outs on blaming racism and other things, not excusing or accepting the inexcusable, being personally responsible and motivated, being involved and valuing family, how best to raise motivated and productive children, instilling proper values in children, etc. I hope, and he appears, to be just the kind of credible person given his background and life story of overcoming a black father who abandoned him in conjunction with his leadership talents and personal example.

Heck, even Jesse himself needs the lesson given his own kid on the side he was concealing, and probably contributed to irritating him and embarrassing him.

Re: McCain Campaigner Attacked, B Cut into her face

Interesting developments in the Ashley Todd case.
McCain campaign spokesmen knew details of the "crime" before the police released them.
It's almost like they planned it.

If that worker is complicit, then that worker should be prosecuted as well.

Re: McCain Campaigner Attacked, B Cut into her face

What, that McCain campaign officials planned a fake incident to promote racial tension?
As opposed to a few Acorn workers filling in registration forms with names from the phonebook until they had enough to buy a bottle of wine?

Officials?

Not only is that off topic but a disingenuous marginalization of the problem with the ACORN organized crime group.

The extraordinary thing, of course, is that McCain has said absolutely nothing about this.

Re: McCain Campaigner Attacked, B Cut into her face

If you're all as sick of this election as I am, you'll enjoy this humorous little satire.

JFCSHOW.COM

It's an online cartoon about Jesus living in the modern world, and in this episode he runs as a third party candidate in this election... it's absolutely priceless. Animated appearances by Obama, McCain, Palin, Ron Paul, Keith Olberman, Bill Hicks, George Carlin... absolutely classic.

It's good, but they should do something about their video compression, it took forever to watch the main episode.

I also found an interesting link on the front page, which I found to be very interesting, and a must see, it's a full length movie, and paced a little slow, but it's worth the time to watch.

ZEITGEIST - THE MOVIE

I recommend it to all thinking people, especially if you are devoutly religious.

Sorry way off topic, but enlightenment is never off topic, IMO.

I'm surprised that McCain campaign thinks it's ok to deliberately promote racial tensions. I guess we know the real reason why McCain opposed the MLK birthday holiday for years.
