See video of a 9-year-old Chapel Hill boy being shocked by a campaign sign wired to an electrical current. The video was captured by a remote camera mounted by homeowner Shawn Turschak, who wired the sign after repeated vandalism of signs. Video provided by Shawn Turschak CHAPEL HILL (AP) - Shawn Turschak of Chapel Hill was tired of someone stealing McCain-Palin campaign signs from his yard. So the man with a degree in electrical engineering hooked up a third sign to a power source for an electric pet fence Monday. Turschak also put up a surveillance camera. The News & Observer of Raleigh reports that Tuesday, a 9-year-old boy with an Obama-Biden sign grabbed the McCain-Palin sign ...

Philadelphia attorney Philip Berg will be at the United States Supreme Court at 3:15 p.m. today to file a Petition for Writ of Certiorari, as well as an application to Justice Souter--the applicable Justice given this region--for an immediate injunction to stay the presidential election currently only five days away. Berg, who filed suit in district court here in Philadelphia back on August 21 alleging that Barack Obama is constitutionally ineligible to serve as president of the United States, said that he hopes the Supreme Court will "do the right thing" by the United States Constitution and the American people and hear the case on its merits and, in so doing, avoid a ...

[snip] I have only found two snippets posted at YoutTube. ARLINGTON, VA -- Governor Sarah Palin today will deliver the following remarks as prepared for delivery in Toledo, OH, at 9:00 a.m. ET: Thank you all very much. I appreciate the hospitality of Xunlight Energy, and all the people of Toledo. The folks at Xunlight are doing great work for this community and our country. Every day, when there are no cameras around to draw attention to it, this company and others like it are engaged in the great enterprise of energy independence. And what we see here is just a glimpse of much bigger things to come. Solar power is one of many alternative energy sources that are changing our ...

And it is not just here. Turn on the boob tube, and there they are. Read a newspaper, they are there too. Forums that arent even political, and who do you see? And all this is coming from people that slam wrestling as being staged. Unbelievable. At least wrestling can be entertaining.
A Rational Choice for Election Day (Older article but still apropos)

I can recall no time during my years on this planet when a presidential election has had less significance than this one. I know this statement flies in the face of the hyperbolic rhetoric engaged in, by Republocratic party drum-beaters, as they induce you to part company with your innate intelligence by joining the chuckleheads in a mad dash to the voting booths. The little stickers that read "I voted" – worn so proudly by those wishing to confirm their allegiance to the system that is destroying their lives – reminds me of the "kick me" signs teenagers used to tape onto the backs of their fellow students. This year marks my fortieth anniversary of not ...

October 29, 2008 Who Enforces the Constitution's Natural Born Citizen Clause? By Mark J. Fitzgibbons If you believe in individual rights and the notion that our Constitution is a document granting enumerated but limited powers to the federal government, then you have reason to be troubled by the recent dismissal in Berg v. Obama et al. Philip Berg, Democrat and former Assistant Attorney General for Pennsylvania, brought suit alleging that under the Natural Born Citizen Clause of the U.S. Constitution, Barack Obama is ineligible to be President. Federal Judge R. Barclay Surrick recently granted the motion to dismiss filed by Senator Obama and other defendants, including the ...
Electline: Early but Final Projections-McCain 270, Obama 268-Dem Senate +4, Dem House +8.

Since I have to be on the road the next four days, unfortunately I have to post my final projections four days early and in an abbreviated form. I hope to post again Monday night before the polls close. However, giving you my best look without benefit of the only real time the polls mean anything: the last week, let me just say the recent financial crisis has hurt John McCain by about 4 points. This would be a tossup now with McCain surging if the meltdown hadn't occurred. I am forced to guess by historical standards that the following will occur over the next four days: some Americans will realize the Democrats are primarily to blame for the fiscal problems; in any case, McCain's ...

The Electoral College - The Penultimate Firewall to Electoral Fraud Written by Zach Jones Washington 538 Citizens and Each is Entrusted with the Sacred Duty of Protecting American Democracy Many have criticized the Electoral College through the years; however, I don't. The usual criticism is that it is possible for a candidate to lose the popular vote and still win the Presidency by way of the Electoral College vote. Nevertheless, the reason I don't criticize the Electoral College is that it acts as the penultimate firewall to election fraud, the Congress being the ultimate. This year however, with a Democratic controlled House and Senate, Electoral College members are ...

The O-man, Barack Hussein Obama, is an eloquently tailored empty suit. No resume, no accomplishments, no experience, no original ideas, no understanding of how the economy works, no understanding of how the world works, nothing but abstract, empty rhetoric devoid of real substance.
He has no real identity. He is half-white, which he rejects. The rest of him is mostly Arab, which he hides but is disclosed by his non-African Arabic surname and his Arabic first and middle names as a way to triply proclaim his Arabic parentage to people in Kenya . Only a small part of him is African Black from his Luo grandmother, which he pretends he is exclusively.
What he isn't, not a genetic drop of, ...

I live in a liberal community, therefore many of my friends are liberals. Many of my email friends are liberal. I've never had any problems before this election... I go back and forth in my liberal community and have good relations with everyone. I've lost my hair stylist. I almost lost my chiropractor.

She said that it was bad when Kerry was running. People were good natured when they disagreed. She says that now people are angry. They can't discuss Obama or McCain without ...

The local paper has Baldwin listed under the independent/green party ticket here in Virginia. When I called to tell them they had made a mistake, the writer told me he was looking at a ballot and that Baldwin is in fact listed as noted. Talk about deception...this is crazy. I've called the VA election commission to tell them they've listed Baldwin incorrectly and I've received no response...little good it will do at this point...the ballots have already been printed and gone out. I've called the Baldwin campaign to let them know and all I get is a recording...
Obama Must Stand Up Now or Step Down [Full Thread]

America is facing potentially the gravest constitutional crisis in her history. Barack Obama must either stand up in a public forum and prove, with conclusive documentary evidence, that he is “a natural born Citizen” of the United States who has not renounced his American citizenship—or he must step down as the Democratic Party’s candidate for President of the United States—preferably before the election is held, and in any event before the Electoral College meets. Because, pursuant to the Constitution, only “a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States at the time of the Adoption of th[e] Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of ...

Whack job? You betcha! By DOUG THOMPSON Senior aides to Sen. John McCain tell reporters his flakey running mate is "a whack job." A couple of days earlier, those same aides called her "a diva." And a couple of days earlier, they said she had "gone rogue." Ah, you gotta love the smell of death on a political morning. With less than a week to go, the flies and buzzards are already gathering around the dying campaign of John McCain and Sarah Palin. I worked in Republican politics long enough to know the symptoms. The smell of death has descended on the Republican National Committee and the finger pointing has started. When the debacle masquerading as the 200 ...

I said: Anyone else? — Might some wealthy McCain supporter come up with a reward for a copy of the Khalidi tape the L.A. Times refuses to release. The tape that shows Obama at a 2003 party with a whole lot of crazy Jew-bashing going on. From the L.A. Times own pages: At Khalidi’s 2003 farewell party, for example, a young Palestinian American recited a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism in its treatment of Palestinians and sharply criticizing U.S. support of Israel. If Palestinians cannot secure their own land, she said, “then ...

A pro-McCain letter e-mailed to Pennsylvania Jews suggested that a vote for Barack Obama could bring another Holocaust. Pennsylvania Democrats are calling on U.S. Sen. John McCain’s campaign to disavow the letter from the state Republican Party’s “Victory 2008” committee. The letter, which reportedly was sent to 75,000 Jews, was signed by three prominent Jewish Republicans, including Sandra Schultz Newman, a former state Supreme Court justice, and I. Michael Coslov, the campaign chairman of the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia. The e-mail, after extolling McCain’s record and questioning U.S. Sen. Barack Obama’s commitment to Israel -- as well as his ...

HERSHEY, Pa. (AP) - Republican John McCain and running mate Sarah Palin told a Pennsylvania audience Tuesday that "it's wonderful to fool the pundits" and vowed to pull out an upset win over Democratic rival Barack Obama. "I'm not afraid of the fight, I'm ready for it," said McCain, continuing his sharp assault on Obama at a noisy rally opening his campaign day. Palin defended the campaign's harsh attacks on Obama. "Our opponent is not being candid with you about his tax plans," said Palin. "It is not mean-spirited, and it is not negative campaigning to call out someone on their record."

SANTA FE, New Mexico (CNN) – For The New Mexico Sun News it is either a major scoop or “Dewey Beats Truman” déjà vu 60 years later. “Obama Wins!” is the headline of the edition on newsstands now, complete with “special collector’s edition” in red bold typeface. The Sun News is a bi-monthly newspaper and its Oct 26-Nov 8 issue had to hit the streets, and the newsstands, before the election. So the editors decided to make a leap of faith and declare Democrat Barack Obama the winner. In an article explaining their choice, the editors unabashedly wrote, “When it comes to calling the winner of a presidential election, everyone wants ...
Barack Hussein Obama and the Triumph of Marxism
Post Date: 2008-10-28 16:52:52 by X-15

One of the recurring themes in my essays is the realization that the West didn't win the Cold War as decisively as we should have done. A generation after we "defeated" Marxism, Marxist-inspired groups control much of the Western education system as well as Western media and form alliances with our enemies, especially Islamic ones. I have concentrated on Europe, but this is a problem in North America as well. Barack Hussein Obama represents the triumph of cultural Marxism; or perhaps we should simply say Marxism. One generation after Ronald Reagan led the USA to "victory," a person with Marxist sympathies could be about to be elected President of the USA. When the ...

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — More than a third of Mississippi counties have more registered voters than residents old enough to cast a ballot, according to an Associated Press analysis. In addition to providing ammunition for people who say the voting system is vulnerable to fraud, the flabby voting rolls may make it difficult to accurately determine turnout for the Nov. 4 presidential election. "There is no reason in the world why some of these counties should have more registered voters than they have living, breathing people," Mississippi Senate Elections Committee Chairman Terry Burton said. Despite the inflated voter rolls, "it's important not to leap to the ...
