    Great video? You’re kidding, right?

  3. Palin4Prez, on October 2nd, 2008 at 9:54 AM Said:

    Fox is showing the Barack Obama Children’s Chorus with the headline “Cute or Creepy?”

    I’m tempted to make a vide adding “If you think Obama’s kidndergarten sex ed plan was bad, wait until you see his music program.”

    Insight, some of us are getting the sense that you come here to drop your blog links. You come by every day but you RARELY say anything to the people here. Just your links that sometimes aren’t even relevent to the thread. This hurts people’s feelings. Especially mine.

    jeeezus..Lou Dobbs will have a stroke over that video.
    Fox has an agreement with Palestra.net. why aren’t they playing it? that’s a conversion tool if there ever was one!
    all the chest bumping & back slapping over round 2 of the Toxic Asset Bailout bill yesteday is just numbing.
    does that shit just make you want to hide under the covers UW? Reid calls it OUR bill. Dodd is his “Lieutenant”. wtf? is this a mob deal to curtail family warfare? Pelosi will be giving out Oscars if it gets past the House. 450 pages of bs. they’re going to treat that like the Iraqi intelligence report before the vote for invasion. oh weee didn’t know what was in it when we signed.
    Packin up the truck here & heading to Mexico. I’m so sorry i made my Cobra payment this week.

    Here’s something else community organizers do:

    shake down banks for trillions of dollars in loans.

    Next they’ll be traipsing through the graveyards, writing people’s names down and registering/voting for them – for Obama, of course, ’cause he’s their man, dontcha know.

    Oh wait, they’re ALREADY doing the dead people thing.

    I think we need to pass a law that all Community Organizer groups MUST practice non-partisanship. Refusal to do so is punishable by law. Jeez, silly me, I must have had a brain freeze or something.

    raGing, I’m counting the minutes til I can get to Mexico, too. A cute little town in the Yucatan called Merida…soon as I get that winning lottery ticket, I’m outta here!

    This video is of Acorn workers protesting Acorn.
    They say that they were hired to knock on doors in support of raising the minimum wage but are angry that they were instructed to get out the vote for Claire McCaskill and that their pay is late.

    you’re scarey sometimes

  13. lagal, on October 2nd, 2008 at 11:26 AM Said:

    I’m just shaking my head in awe after watching this video. How nice they get picked up and delivered to vote – but just exactly who is picking up the tab for all the taxi rides? At $4.00 a gallon it can’t be a cheap endeavor to cruise around looking for strangers to pick up and deliver to a voting booth.

    And how about that smart fellow (although practically unintelligible) when asked who he’s voting for says: “Barack…I mean I want him to do his thang….you know I mean…do his thug thessel…..you know..”

    For the record…..I am SCARED of Barack’s “thang”!!!!
    And what the hell is a thug thessel?

    Yes, we need to be afraid. We need to be very afraid.

    Uppity: Made a name change to bypass GALSDOWNSOUTH going into your spam. Just read everything! Of course, I found good essays and articles on ibeeditorials.com. SOMEBODY in this organization is on TOP of the O-Campaign’s background! I wrote my senator this morning, and said: NO MORE ACORN, and NO MORE CORRUPTION in the House of Reps between financial institutions and Congress! What a disgrace.

    I’ve read so much about ACORN, but at IBD there is a GREAT article called “The Manufacture of Crisis,” which ACORN is all about. Yes, they have barged into our culture acting like a marauding tribe out of Africa — poison arrows flying, and grunting “We want, we want, we want, we want! Like wild, hungry pigs with no thought but anything but their APPETITE!

    Well, f–k you! “Where is The Lone Ranger, Sky King, and Tonto’s cowboy friend, maybe John Wayne and Zoro?” In the AGE OF OBAMA, where is the WHITE HAT in this picture? Who is supposed to come riding in and save ME? I mean, I thought this was a representative form of governemnt? Remember Civil Rights? Remember racialism? Remember fairness for ALL? This Obama movement (stink, stink) is getting lopsided, an overcorrection of “rights”, and an outrage!

    Tell me I’m not being bombarded here with the black minority needs in America and to hell with the white needs! Not Middle America, but Low America. Not Main Street, but the Southside of Chicago! Despite that no one is willing to say it, the underbelly of Obama’s focus is on HIS PEOPLE (that’s what he said), and he’s invited white faces to FUND HIS PEOPLE, and I am afraid because, right about now, I AM THE WRONG COLOR! Unless I want I want I want I want TO MERELY PAY for the “good of others.” I get no good!

    And don’t tell me this is isn’t true. I know the truth when I see, read it, and feel it. This ACORN thing does not include or have any concern for poor white farmers down here in the South. If it does, PROVE IT. I want to see it in black and white — remember? That was the INITIAL OBJECTIVE! A FREE, MIXED society. So many people have worked to achieve this honorable goal. To have it TORPEDOED by ACORN is a sin! These are not good black people who love America — they hate America. Obama and Saul Alinsky and Rules for Radicals have systemically created at million-man HATE GROUP!. Why isn’t anyone talking about this?

    We’re up to our ass in alligators, though, so the initial objective is sinking to the bottom of the SWAMP, which is what life feels like today!

    I had heard that they were having kids spend the night yesterday prior to the Ohio register and vote at the same time day. They arranged for buses to pick up and deliver from Ohio State. The children were still bright eyed and bushy tailed after having slept in tents outside. This is sickening.

  18. Uppity Woman, on October 2nd, 2008 at 11:37 AM Said:

    Hahaha Raging. I love people tossing links. It’s just that, well, say HELLO once in awhile. Sometimes people don’t realize they are using other blogs as advertising for theirs without even reading the thread or being part of the community. It’s nice to hear from people without them just making the rounds and pushing their own sites and running off. That’s all. I would NEVER do that to anybody. You are here pitching in all the time and I love that!

    I just found this:
    Thank Heaven for W.G.T… The Unoffical BO Biography.
    http://pumasunleashed.wordpress.com/

    “Obama’s mother was an official of the Ford Foundation, the World Bank, and US AID. By all indications, Obama was identified for future political use by Brzezinski at Columbia in 1981-1983, during Obama’s secret lost years. Obama has worked for the Gamaliel Foundation, the Joyce Foundation, the Woods Fund, and the Annenberg Foundation. “

    Interesting about Brezezinski- we all know Mika has been in the tank, but this seems like this family has a longer relationship with Obama than some of us of us thought.

    This looks like an interesting read.

    Gosh, it just occured to me if Obama’s mama did all those things WGT suggests – well then hey, I should have gone on food stamps long ago. No wonder I get no where. I work for a living. Foolish me.

    I found the above video on YouTube. This is disturbing, as so many other things “The Leader” and his campaign are doing. Let’s make this video viral and send it everywhere. The YouTube video will get a lot more play than the one above. People have got to wake up.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKXPhPrd_As

    P.S. The reporter in the video is a college student and a huge Obama supporter who has made lots of other videos. Apparently she sees nothing wrong with this voter fraud.

  23. SUGAR, on October 2nd, 2008 at 11:55 AM Said:

    Uppity, I don’t even have a problem with letting homeless people vote. They should be allowed to vote. HOWEVER, I didn’t like the “temporary address” comment that one guy made in the video. As in, you KNOW they will pick those same folks up on another day and have them use a different address to VOTE AGAIN!! That’s what we need to find. A video that reveals something like that.

    “Thug thizzle”. How ignorant.

  24. deadenders, on October 2nd, 2008 at 12:06 PM Said:

    Hello my peeps lets all shizzle my issle while we vote for the thug drizzle.

    What crap.

    The dems have been pushing no ID voting for years and this is what happens. SUGAR is right they can bus the homeless from polling station to polling station all day long and they can vote a hundred times by coming up with another temp address.

    It’s just wrong.

    ROFL. ROZ will be under the bus herself shortly if she doesn’t deliver MO.
    the white guy in that picket line was raising 2 kids on an ACORN salary, & Claire screwed him? pathetic. the supervisor.. were they sharks teeth hanging around her neck, or some kind of Dem voodoo charm?
    remember during her Senate campaign ROZ said she wouldn’t let Clinton near her daughter? now she’s pimping for Obama. she can hardly keep her legs together around him. flashback: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0EBi1W4jL0

    I’ve always felt the only shot the possum had was if he cheated. If a fair election of actual legitimate voters were held there would be no way this guy could win. He is a thief and a thug (among so many other vile despicable things) He and his posse stole the nomination and now they are planning on stealing the general. This is the one time I pray to God the Republicans do anything and everything they can to win in November

    This ACRON stuff was going on in 2004 and Bush still won. I’m sure it’s worse now, but thwarting the will of the people is very tricky. Maybe not difficult, but still hard to account for everything.

    And most people still think Barky is a Muslim.

  30. Uppity Woman, on October 2nd, 2008 at 1:05 PM Said:

    Nobody did squat about those donations from a HAMAS COMPOUND that he didn’t even REPORT to the FEC. The man is grease. He is the lowest form of slime and he just keeps getting away with it. I am so sick of this country I feel like packing up and moving the H out of here. I cann’t believe that this communist with hidden history, and what history we HAVE is not good, can even be allowed to be president.

  31. Uppity Woman, on October 2nd, 2008 at 1:07 PM Said:

    Thanks for your optimism, P4. I need that today. I am in a very bad mood because i think McCain’s campaign is doing a terrible job. I honestly hope you are righ.

    Today, John said he’s “Happy where he is at” in this election. I’m thinking WHAT? You’re happy your behind?? But then again, we both know how Obama underperforms polls from the primaries. And we have Gallup polling on a curve with more Democrats being polled. Ever since they changed their “formula” Obama has been ahead.

  32. Sharon, on October 2nd, 2008 at 1:08 PM Said:

    But remember, if you’re poor or middle class and you vote for McCain — you are an ignorant racist who is clinging bitterly to your guns and your religion.

    You need to stop clinging to the Bill of Rights, people! It’s only the Constitution, after all. When The One is elected, we won’t have any need for silly things like the rule of law because we will have Truth Squads and a Civilian National Security Force to make sure we do the right thing — justice will be served.

    homeless shelters in S FL are revolving doors like the jails. there are over 100 drug rehab/homeless intake centers in Dade county. law enforcement keeps a database of them & Gov Crist put put the word out early for strict enforcement of registration laws.
    same day voting would be a disaster here.
    best thing for Ohio is over-exposure of ACORN by MSM.
    FOX is all over them since the weekend.

    Here’s a video documenting a credentialed poll watcher being turned away in Ohio.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weyrE9jLGn0&eurl

    Barky’s camp is padding the vote up front – no need to wait until election day. I’m sure they know how many rounds of these “intellectual” types they need to make.

  35. Indy, on October 2nd, 2008 at 1:35 PM Said:

    UW-we are being victimized by the antics of the chattering classes (the media and the pundits-on tv and on the net). I think we could fairly call it an attempt at voter suppression. Get McCain voters feeling so overwhelmed that they just don’t show up. P4P has a good point. My take is that there is a silent majority in the country, and I think McCain wins that demographic. As P4P points out, Bush won in 2004 despite what seemed to be tough odds.

    It’s easy to get in a bad mood when all you hear is that the financial sky is falling and the false messiah is winning, winning, winning! Next week I’m going out of town, and will be out of the loop-which will probably do my mental health some good.

  36. Denise W, on October 2nd, 2008 at 1:55 PM Said:

    UW

    I’ve been feeling the same way too, but last night a friend
    I haven’t had much contact with for some time called.
    I’ve avoided her because I had the feeling she might be an Obot. I wasn’t disappointed.
    Anyway, she circled around me knowing I had been a Hillary supporter, but then she got around to asking me who I was supporting in the General- and I found myself lying! – don’t know why I did it, maybe I just didn’t feel like getting into it, but I lied. Said a few negative things about barky (calling him Senator Obama, of course), how he treated Hillary, cheated, his arrogance, and so on and so on, but then I said “I probably will be voting for him because he is the Democratic nominee”. BULLSHIT! No way in hell would I ever vote for that filthy excuse of a human being.
    I despise him. I loathe him and his. The point is, I get the sense there are many, many who say will vote for him but will not. And that’s not including the “undecided”, who will break for McCain in bigger numbers. We’ll see what happens, but his underperformance in the primaries, the polling curve and my own observations have me thinking he has to have a 9 to 10 point lead going in. The way I see it things are tied and anything can happen, but McCain does have to raise his game.

    Uppity,

    The Republicans will save the best for last. They know that the public is fickle and has a short attention span. They’re not going to blow their wad until the end when it will make the most impact. Ahole can cheat all he wants but it won’t work.

    I’m sorry to say that this is still a racist country, and please forgive me if you’re a person of color, but most white people will not vote for a black president, including me, and that’s the bottom line. (At least not one who is so street and obviously has their own angry racist agenda). Now if it was Colin Powell, Condoleeza Rice, I would be SO there…but this jerk doesn’t even compare.

    So don’t believe the polls……the Bradley effect will be more influential than you think….

    I feel your pain Uppity.
    The drive by media is out in full force to bring us down, McCain cant win, Palin has lost her support, it all over don’t even bother going to vote BO is going to win anyway.

    We need to pay no attention this this crap, the polls will start to show the correct information about a week before the election and then if it looks bad then we can worry.
    Until then GO SARAH !!!!

    Oh gee I am in a tizzy all these posts make complete sense about how the dems are going out picking folk up to vote : homeless etc so in this state today in another next week or even tomorrow…

    My nervous system is shot.. yes shot and I too am angry with all this mess.
    What a sham a complete and utter sham.
    Taking a few days off to get my mind together. LOL
    However are u having an open thread tonight Uppity?

    I trust all the inies will vote for the maverick when it comes to Nov 4th.

    No time for mistakes this year it is essential we vote in the most experienced…

    H HHey!I live in this weird state. But don’t you folks worry now McCain Palin will win Ohio. There are far more intelligent smart people that live here too even former demacrats who will not let this “Thizzle the Street Thug ” get anywhere near the hononored office of thePresidency. Sure he’s already gotten the three big cities of Ohio and a college or two but that is all he will get in this state!

    deadenders, my affection for gambling would not be trumped by taking you up on such a bet.

    My only hesitation is that ACORN may not be able to provide enough poll workers that have reading skills sufficient to SEEM to be performing the job (doin’ ther thang).

  46. Uppity Woman, on October 2nd, 2008 at 2:40 PM Said:

    Hey Mark! Remember when the AP released that Hillary dropped out of the race on a day of a primary she was set to kill Obama in? That’s the kind of crap they pull to keep you home. But she still won! Remember that.

  47. SUGAR, on October 2nd, 2008 at 2:45 PM Said:

    Oh yes! I understand the whole, “poor people can’t afford ID cards” bit on the one hand, but then on another I don’t. If the same people who have been donating “$250 or less–those elusive small donors–would each sponsor a poor person’s ID costs, we wouldn’t have to worry about this crap. I too believe that people should have ID’s to vote. I mean, this isn’t Djibouti. This is one of the SUPER POWERS of the world and some people think it’s a crime to make sure our elections are fair and honest!???

    Many states offer free Id’s to elderly people and some states even give free ID’s based upon income if I’m not mistaken. It’s ludicrous that we don’t demand ID’s from voters to verify who they are.

  53. Palin4Prez, on October 2nd, 2008 at 3:51 PM Said:

    Type,

    Suspend is an interesting thing. McCain suspended his campaign and Barky “surged” ahead to 9 points. Within a couple of days of unsuspending, Barky was DOWN 5 of those points. Keeping your powder dry is a valid strategy.

    Food for thought. For barky to win, there has to be a significant number of people who actually voted for Bush in 2004 to NOT vote for McCain in 2008. I don’t see it.

  54. socalannie, on October 2nd, 2008 at 4:04 PM Said:

    Uppity, I’ve been depressed about McCains campaign as well, and if the Repubs wait until the end of Oct to roll out any Oct surprises, what would be the point if millions have already voted?

    I have never understood why asking for an id is a “hardship”? “Poor people” can’t get an id, because they can’t get to a Dept of Motor Vehicles or they can’t afford it? They cost about $10 or are free for seniors. Are we supposed to believe that poor people are born in, live in, & die in the same spot and never move from there? If these reputed poor people have no transportation to make it to any state bldg near them to get an id, how are they getting to polling places? I think voting without identifying yourself as eligible is outrageoous, and an affront to the rest of us who play by the rules. I am asked for my i.d. several times a week.

    By the way, as sfindiepuma mentions upthread, ACORN is supposed to be non-partisan. On their website at the bottom of their “About” page it says:

    “ACORN is a non-profit, non-partisan social justice organization with national headquarters in New York, New Orleans and Washington, D.C. To maintain independence, ACORN does not accept government funding and is not tax exempt.”

    Disgusting, isn’t it?

  55. socalannie, on October 2nd, 2008 at 4:26 PM Said:

    P4P – I don’t want to be a downer, but Bush didn’t win by that big of a margin in Ohio. I gather that the Barky strategy is their (communiity) organizing to get out (or manufacture) millions more votes. That’s why they don’t care about Pumas. They certainly have the college kids (and for that matter, the rest of the Obot nation) fired up. If McCains campaign is doing anything like this, I haven’t seen it. I hope there’s a strong Puma element in the swing states. I agree that the Repub base will support McCain & Palin. What will the Indies do, I wonder?

  56. Palin4Prez, on October 2nd, 2008 at 4:40 PM Said:

    Annie,

    Police are organized. You don’t see many of them together until something braks out. Gangs are disorganized. You see them all crowded around wach other. One is more visible, the other is more powerful.

    McCain’s people do their job and go back to their lives. The ACORN drones do their “job” on the stoop where they loiter around anyway. It just looks like they’re doing something.

We band together; we don’t let each other get down or dis-empowered by liberal media bias chatter! We are made up of all color skin and backgrounds. We’re winners and losers, talkers and the quiet types. We got guts!

    With God, we are “given” multitudes — multitudes of each others! God has more female constituents than the internet! Well, dang! And I now count you as one of my MULTITUDE, Uppity, and I now take it as a personal problem if you feel bad! I’m certain the Lord sent your site my way a few weeks ago when I was so down and out! I read your column, looked at the puma kitty biting that guy’s arm every time he hit that button, and I said: UPPITY WOMAN IS MY KINDA WOMAN~~!!! If there’s one thing I love, it’s a cat that bites!!! Don’t let VOTER FRAUD get you down. Don’t let buses of braninwashed children and criminals voting for the wrong MAN make you blue, though mixing crime with children is a bad potion.

    Surely back in the day, Moses dealt with all kinds of airheads wanting to hurry him through the desert. When he looked back behind him and saw the Romans hard on his ass and miles and miles of nothing but crystal blue water called the Red Sea to swim across, he probably staggered and stuttered, and thought: Oh, shit.

    Well, God’s response to MOSES’ predicament was simple: He moved the ocean out of the way!

    I love YOUR attitude. You’re strong, smart, and courageous! Sounds like small weapons, BUT in the hands of multitudes who share your “character,” you should know that you have joined in on a real political march. We’re headed around Jericho seven times! Why is that funny, like in ha ha ha ha ha ha ha? Because the people wanting to get through the door at Jericho with the right man WON’T HAVE TO PUSH anybody or opt for thizzle thugs to get the job done. We gonna pray about it!!! Til then …

    God says: Walk together, I’ll do the rest.

    This is called “The Way”. Don’t let that scare you! It’s like the right way and the wrong way, a way to say proceed properly! There is time! Right people do the right thing the right way! Now, what I’ve noticed is that “The One” does not do things according to “The Way.” Which means I have realized that Obama is a temporary secular fix for a really big spiritual problem. Of course, the secular souls are going to BELIEVE IN CHANGE THAT NO DIEHARD CHRISTIAN WOULD EVER BELIEVE IN, nor would any constitutional lawyer worth his salt for that matter!!!! Which puts Christians and the law on the same side of the fence this time! That’s because we already believe that Jesus offered up change years ago that broke the law right out of the gate (did the hard part) without the use of force and set us free.

    Since we already know we’re free, all we have to do is convince other people that they can be free, too! So of course, the Obama News of CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN is not new, nor is it right, and nor is he going to succeed for long! He’s exemplying the wrong reasons for believing in a cause you might have to die to defend, see? We’ve known NOT TO BELIEVE IN this crap for centuries!. So, thank God, Christians are not — I repeat — are not novices to fighting AGAINST the WRONG CAUSE whatsoever, nor are we new to preaching and persuasion, which is what Oslobber continues to co-opt from us for His Cause.

    Jesus got crucified for WHAT HE BELIEVED IN, but we fought back by building another church! Everywhere you look across this nation, there is EVIDENCE of CHANGE WE ALREADY BELIEVED IN, and that change is still around, I notice, and pushback is but a new political term for an old adage the Christians used when they were fed to the lions by a political monster! You may be eaten alive, but God’s cause never dies. That’s the difference in us and Obama.

    The workin’ class (slur, slur on Obama’s co-opting the Southern accent) is not a bunch of robots who have no intellect, and most thinkin’ and workin’ class people believe Obama is off “The Way” and onto “His Way” — his own damend wrong way, and that would be on the way to becoming the next great cult leader of all time, which history will sneer at very soon.

    CHANGE THAT DOESN’T LAST isn’t BELIEVED IN for very long, nor is it fondly and further encouraged. Hitler and the milions of teens he mobilized to ruin a nation, a continent, and then cause a world war were KILLED. Germany still carries the burden of that defeat — and, for the record, I don’t hate Germans, Jews, or black people. I just read a lot of history and am often vastly amazed at how “systems” come and go as they are mishandled by man! I also am not a religious zealot or a member of that poor outfit Out West where women wear prairie dresses and country-music style hairdos. I’m normal. Don’t fret.

    The situation in our country today is unimaginably far above and out of range of mere race relations and politics and the all-glorified economy. Human being management has now come to mean socialism and barbaric backwardness into welfare and mob and tribal mentalities. But to me, human management and national orientation means FREEDOM. We are born free, and it’s going to take a fight to keep it that way. I believe we are involved in a spiritual war — and what we cannot quite put into words in all this is that socialism/communism suppresses the human SPIRIT! Our spirits hurt and agonize when we behold the violent UNDERTONE of the Obama Plan.

    One note here on suffering and Obama’s relentless remarks on it: Obama is wrongminded. He wants to limit suffering by means of welfare rolls. But suffering is a great teacher. If you don’t suffer, you learn very little about your naughty ways and your lack of experience in decision making. To exercise YOUR WILL means making mistakes. Excercising reflection on decisions results in maturity. These freedoms result in DIGNITY, which is a lost term in the Obama Cult Following. I could not calm down this week until I figured this out with the help of extremely good articles on ibd and on sites that I found to read on THIS SITE!

    Sorry to be so serious, but I hope to perk you up because right this moment WE THE PEOPLE OF THIS GREAT NATION do not want to lose the best political comedian, the woman with the MOST GUTS on our team!. Uppity — the WAR FRONT needs you invigorated with your sharp edged wisdom, your way with words, your ability to lead! We are marching to Zion, Uppity, by God!!!! And YOU ARE GOING WITH US!!!!! You are the Lead Puma!!!! Zion is a metaphor for spiritual freedom, and freedom with no spirit is despair! Freedom protects us, enerizes us, makes us talk big, walk tall, and carry a big stick!

    “Stand right here,” is my battle cry, “walk beside me. Here’s a staff. Keep the sheep out of the ditch!” That’s what you do, Uppity!!!! Your jabs and zingers and testy remarks hook us in and keep us ALIVE! We are not racing to Zion. We are going in poised and in style, like Miss Manners would advise. We shall walk to Zion, casually. We shall enjoy our trip! We shall stand up, and by the simplest known method we will be noticed because we are standing up! And as my really funny, really coarse, really streetwise sister would say: “And on the way, let’s have a cuppa coffee and a Marlboro.” To which I usually say: “Caffeine and nicotine, surely not!” To which she ALWAYS replies: OH, I see, you must be wantin’ sump’n a little STRONGER!”

    Slowing things down — taking our time — and talking is a typical background story on how Real Women band-aid together. War wounds and battle cries go hand-in-hand with a good marguerita, you know. All you need is one woman to say NO to a cup of coffee! JUST SAY NO TO COFFEE!!!! And you have the damn best time! How do you think the most absurdly modern womanly ritual in the world got going in the first place? Some woman’s sister stood up. She took a stand and said NO TO COFFEE! “No,” she said. “I don’t want none sista! I want myself a drinka gin and a marguerita! Give me liberty and give him death, but in the mean time, GIVE ME a marguerita!” Intellectual female debate? Female education? Female products? Oh, fer shure, gi’me a Tampon, “sweetie,” but when we done with all that, can I just have the MARGUERITA MIX!?!

    Uppity, you need your own personal copy of The YaYa Sisterhood! Yes, you must shed a tear and PURGE THE BLUES out of your system. YaYa exemplifies the disgrace of the difficult things that women face but that, ULTIMATELY, like it or not, things that BRING WOMEN TOGETHER!!!!! Whatever the point of the movie, this is the underbelly. Then Steele Magnolias. Watch that and laugh when Weezer tells Malen: “Have you got a reindeer up yo butt?” And sets about cutting an armadillo-shaped red velvet cake into the gutsy-est plate of mangled woman truth ever satirized! Don’t tell me Southern women haven’t suffered!!!! Weezer cut the ASS off the WEDDING CAKE! Then moveon.org to Gone with the Wind just to watch and admire Scarlett O’Hara hold that shriveled sweet potato in her lilly white hand after bringing Melanie in the pouring rain all the way from Atlanta to burned-down Love Joy, Georgia, having had to motivate a nearly dead horse, a black teen-ager, and an infant into cooperating. Tell me if that isn’t simultaneously the funniest, most humiliating, and pathetic set of circumstances that could come upon a BEAUTIFUL woman?

    Why does that count? Cause Scarlett’s pronouncement standing in the red shadows of a setting sun reverberates its light upon an unglorified truth: Women on their own SURVIVE! She speaks with a clear feministic edge that very few women ever get an opportunity to exhalel! “As God is my witness, I shall never go hungry again! Not me, and none of my folk.”

    That isn’t vanity talking. Then she goes in the house, and what does she do? She pours herself a strong one! Then she raises cotton, feeds the whole family, trust her instincts, kills a Yankee, sweet talks Rhett Butler, and ends up on her own again! The underbelly? Scarlett wins and loses; she beautiful and she’s ugly; she’s smart and she’s cunning; she’s weak and she’s strong. BUT …. she’s calling her own shots over and over and over and over and over and over.

    Whatever weaknesses of character this female character has, let me tell you, nobody’s perfect, but at the hardest of times, right then and there at those moments in her life, Scarlett O’Hara SURVIVES! And that’s exactly what is happening with the Hillary voters! You’ve got your academics and your realists among that whole group, and each is HAVING TO DECIDE WHO SHE IS! These are spiritual decisions, and when the moment of decision descends upon each woman, her true color blinks like a caution light.

    The realists are in what I like to call the “Scarlett Position.” Scarlett calls us all back home! She reads the REAL situation. Her guts tell her there’s going to be a cost, but GOING HOME is worth it. She ACTS despite her FEAR. She doesn’t know how to get home, but she TAKES the lead. She has faith in herself that right before her eyes stands a catastrophe! In this case with the Hillary voters, the realists caught sight of real concern, meaning the real Obama, and they walked off a catastrophe! They simply walked away.

    The thing that followed them out the door and up to the doors of Jericho, in my humble opinion, was FEMALE CONVICTION. Even if we lose this election, Uppity, we have walked hand in hand as women out the door and into the light where the next battle will surely start. One thing to remember here, life is not event; it is a process. But the courage and conviction of these Female Democrats who took charge of their own convictions and went out and found websites and organizations OF THEIR OWN have drawn in milions and millions of Sarah-Palin-esque women who WANTED TO BE A PART OF THE WOMEN’S MOVEMENT.

    That’s what brings me to YOUR SITE over and over. There’s realism here, Uppity. Thanks to you.

    Here’s where I am on my position on Palin:

    I’m fixing to go outside and fire off my pistol….all my pistols! I mean it. I’m gonna give Sarah Palin a 21-gun salute and then I’m gonna pray for her, and then I’m gonna laugh my ass off cause, somehow, all this preaching, praying, and shooting will surely lift my spirits. If not, I’m going walk out into my garden as the sun sets in a ball of fire, and I’m gonna lite me up a Marlboro, grip me a tater in one hand and a marguerita in the other, and I’m gonna praise God that I am not having me a Cup of Joe!

    Take Care and Vote McCain!!!!!

    Gagging……..Gagging. I have received your personal message which I understand is Just For Me. But what a message!. And I cannot tell you how GOOD it made me feel.

    To use the vernacular, This isn’t my first time at the rodeo. I pick my fights but I can tell you that when I pick a fight, I use every skill I have been blessed with to carry that cause. And you saw that! Boy I could tell you stories! lol.

    With a warrior like you on my side, how could i possibly fail !!!!!!? We fight, not only for ourselves here in his case. We also fight for the women who don’t KNOW any better because they think their rights were always there and will always be there. We fight for the complacent ones who don’t see the danger.

    An you BET somebody bigger than us has to be on our side, else how would we be able to carry on? You know Gagging, it’s some of he folks on this blog, folks like you, who send me those special messages, that make it all worth while. And that’s the truth.

    Thank you! And WOW, I never realized how many more women have now been added to the Movement, now that we have cast aside the brick walls of Political Parties and said, WE DON’T FOLLOW! We LEAD!

    Said a few negative things about barky (calling him Senator Obama, of course), how he treated Hillary, cheated, his arrogance, and so on and so on, but then I said “I probably will be voting for him because he is the Democratic nominee”. BULLSHIT! No way in hell would I ever vote for that filthy excuse of a human being.

    Don’t beat yourself up. Next time,just say, “I was watching this channel, Fox, Ferret, something like that, and they said this John McCain guy is standup, so I am voting for him.” Step back, exploding heads aren’t pretty.

    Yes, I too am devoted to Uppity and her site because she lets her brilliant soul shine through and you know that she’s speaking the truth. Our truth. And yes, prayer is powerful, it’s not religious, it’s scientific thought energy and it works..

    And you are AMAZING…..

    How can any of us worry after that pep talk? With people like you and Uppity in the world, I am so happy to be alive. God/Goddess Bless us all!!!

It really was beautiful and worthy of sharing. Look what you did for Surfergirl!

    This is an article from the Times-Picayune about the Acorn embezzlement hearing being canceled. In it is this nugget.

    Nola.com http://preview.tinyurl.com/4zfdsb

    Bertha Lewis, a New York ACORN leader who replaced Wade Rathke on an interim basis as chief organizer, said the answers to these questions will become more clear in a few weeks when Sidley Austin LLP , the Chicago global law firm ACORN hired to assess its legal exposure over the handling of the embezzlement, reports to the board.

    Guess who used to work at Sidley Austin. Bernadine Dohrn and Michelle Obama
    The Acorn world is indeed a small one.
