“For God’s sake Barack whatever you do, DON”T talk issues. Stick to simple minded garbage our peons can understand”.

Not that I care-my horse isn’t in the race- but McCain just got a better poll result that Obama.

Gregory Scott   August 20th, 2008 - 2:30 pm

And that finger up in the air! What an arrogant posture— like a father scolding his child. Come on, scold America like all your associates and buddies have done. You will spell your own end!

Hilarious!

Was that a thinly veiled threat of black on white crime being perpetrated by the Chosen One?. I would not want to be near any urban locale on election day should the Messiah lose, not to mention agitation of any race in particular, just those who have a 90-95% dedication to a certain candidate.

McCain withstood the attack by George Bush in the previous Primary trying to paint him as mentally unstable and a liar.

That didn’t completely work and McCain won the nomination. Okay, nearly, won the nomination.

If McCain can withstand savage and only partially true attacks from the Bush Republicans, he can withstand anything from this goofy looking kid with the big ears.

Swifty   August 20th, 2008 - 3:53 pm

Some of the attacks McCain survived in the 2000 Republican Primary:

Rove Suggests Former POW McCain Committed Treason and Fathered Child With Black Prostitute.
In 2000, McCain operatives in SC accused Rove of spreading rumors against McCain, such as “suggestions that McCain had committed treason while a prisoner of war, and had fathered a child by a black prostitute,” according to the New Yorker. (Rove denied he was involved in the attacks but it was later proved.)

Bush Used Fringe Veterans Group to Attack McCain as “Manchurian Candidate.”
“In the case of Ted Sampley, the same guy who did Bush’s dirty work in going after Sen. John McCain in the 2000 Republican primaries is doing the job against Kerry this year. Sampley compared McCain, who spent five years as a Vietnam POW, with ‘the Manchurian Candidate.’”

Sampley Called McCain a “Coward” and a Traitor.
“Sampley… accused McCain of being a weak-minded coward who had escaped death by collaborating with the enemy. Sampley claimed that McCain had first been compromised by the Vietnamese, then recruited by the Soviets.”

======
There’s a lot more for 2000 and 2004. Anybody know the Republicans can fight dirtier than the Dems. So if McCain could survive all those things he can certainly survive whatever these pantywaists can hurl.

What that guy Jonathon said…Obama is going to put fear in McCain after what Mccain has lived through? Do you Dem’s ever, ever think before blowing off whatever whim flashes across your brains? Seriously this is comical.

daisymae   August 20th, 2008 - 5:45 pm

KC Forever – how dare you talk about Cindy McCain after you stupid dems put up a bitter, hatefilled, America-hating, Whitey-hating monkey face for first lady. Cindy McCain was a beautiful lady when she was Monkey Face’s age and still is. Monkey Face is ugly now and will be horribly ugly when she reaches Cindy’s age. Close your eyes and imagine B. Hussein Obama and Monkey Face at 72. If that doesn’t scare the hell out of you I don’t know what will. NOBAMA! NOBAMA! NOBAMA!

I guess he’s up against Bill Gates, George Soros and Warren Buffet.

KC Forever   August 20th, 2008 - 9:00 pm

Cool!

Time to start really punching out the old geezer and his sleaze bag wife!

I see McCain’s affairs and his present wife’s forgotten sisters are hitting the news now!

It’s gonna get fun!!

It's Hard to believe   August 20th, 2008 - 9:07 pm

At once I am so disheartened by all the blather that comes out of Obama’s mouth. When he listens to his handlers he speaks well but, when he doesn’t…..One thing that gives me hope is that those in his choir who want to believe his rhetoric, his flip flops, the fact that he hasn’t been able to stay true even to his own rhetoric.is really sad. I do think the political process is flawed and does need changingbut it needs someone who knows the power of the office and can use that power for change not someone that just spouts empty slogans and only says what people want to hear. Too bad he couldn’t a few years to seasoned a little and then maybe he would understand what a President can and can’t do.

Why is it that.....   August 20th, 2008 - 9:15 pm

Why is it Libs…Air America…can only throw empty words and you guys never and I really mean never attack on really talking points or actual facts its all about ad hominum personal attacks about how much money one has or their wife as in the previous comment. But then again a point/counterpoint arguement is had when your candidate won’t stand up for anything but empty slogans and seems to change his POV with each change in the wind.

Rev. Wright   August 20th, 2008 - 9:19 pm

Tell it like it is Brotha! Dontcha worry none cause I gots your back.

dswilli   August 20th, 2008 - 9:20 pm

KC what’s changed? Bet you were defending the Slick one, yammering about his personal business blah blah blah. The best you clowns with George Soros money can come up with is unsubstantiated rumors of infidelity? You and your KGB connected brethren are going to have to do better if you want to steal the presidency.

dswilli   August 20th, 2008 - 9:30 pm

“John McCain” (depressed Obama biatch) said
“Senator Obama, I have and army of the very rich and the very stupid…all you have is a few informed voters and college kids. You don’t know what you are up against!”

That’s rich, since by every category of success Obama supporters lag pathetically behind McCain supporters. But hey whatever it takes to get your idiots out to vote. I think it’s a laugh riot people are seeing through that moronic “yes we can” garbage.

Obambi   August 20th, 2008 - 9:30 pm

McCain better be careful! You don’t want to get Obambi upset!

What a di*k. Obambi is the ultimate Chicago politician.

Gregory Scott   August 20th, 2008 - 9:44 pm

Bring it on. There are going to be riots when this a$shole loses— he’s getting people so worked up into a frenzy about him. There is no difference between what he is doing and what was done with all the Commie ’saviors of the people’. Everything is depending on him! He is the savior of the world! Simple as that, folks. All you’ve got to do is vote and the country, the government, and everything you dislike will change into something you approve of. You know why? Because we can!

And yet the Republicans are criticized for being ‘retarded’. Such sweet irony. Obama, with the power that he already has acquired, has managed to do /nothing/ for the American people he is responsible for. But you people out there are convinced that, if you just give him more power and control, he’s suddenly going to snap into action and save the world. I’ll buy that for a dollar.

Give me a break. This boasting from Obama is going to lose him the election. And I will laugh, laugh, laugh— and stay out of public places for a few weeks.

Jonathan   August 20th, 2008 - 9:46 pm

Let’s see… McCain has served in the military, he has flown bomber sorties over hostile territory, he survived being shot down by pulling the parachute release with his teeth, he survived torture and brutal treatment for five years in a prison camp… and Obamessiah thinks he’s going to put fear into the man… migod what is the Obamessiah thinking??? I can see the entire McCain team quaking now, shuddering and stammering, unable to move from the fear of Obamessiah’s parting of the no-long-rising-oceans (hint, Berlin speech). What a total flake this Democratic candidate for president it turning out to be… it seems that common sense is also above his pay grade.

Woody   August 20th, 2008 - 10:09 pm

Obama doesn’t intend to lose, huh? Is that why he’s down 9 points today (Reuters/Zogby poll)? People are starting to see through all the hype, and what they see is an arrogant socialist elitist who hates everything America has stood for from its founding. He’s unlike any major presidential candidate we’ve ever seen in this country–the most extreme and the most arrogant.

Reasonable   August 20th, 2008 - 10:22 pm

Fortunately only the mentally blind Obama Cultists are stupid enough to vote for this bum. Of course he doesn’t intend to lose. If I were addressing crowds of potentially open wallets I’d say the same thing too.

The fact is that Obama bin Lyin is a Marxist, a liberal, a socialist, a liar, an empty-suit, and a one-man islamic sleeper-cell bent on attacking the United States from within wherein his muslim brothers and sisters can only attack from without. Let there be no doubt, this guy is NOT an American in his heart.

B. Hussein Obama bin Lyin, you need to disappear.

Gregory Scott   August 20th, 2008 - 10:24 pm

Moderator: What is up with the posting time organization on Brietbart? One post is at 9:46pm (I posted it twenty minutes ago), and the other that I just posted says 2:30pm. Nuts.

Flyoverman   August 20th, 2008 - 10:38 pm

“He can talk all he wants about Britney (Spears) and Paris (Hilton), but I don’t have time for that mess.”

TRANSLATION: Those ads have been efective. If they were not, Obama would never mention them. But since he has complained I am SURE the McCain camp will refrain from further such ads. Let’s examine the trend in Democratic Presidential candidates; Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry and now Barrack Obama. One word comes to mind; tailspin.

Edwin   August 20th, 2008 - 10:43 pm

Hee hee….

On the contrary–Mac finally GETS what he is up against–and things are lookin’ pretty good now.

Blather on, Moonbats. Party of hate, racism, rich,..ya know..what-ever. I think your own hate is looking pretty impressive these days…

I dare you try to tell people WHY they should vote for your lightweight, rather than WHY-NOT ours.

Franc   August 20th, 2008 - 10:45 pm

McCain is up against a Muslim who’s real Indonesian name is Barry Sotereo. Little Barry was enrolled in Indonesian school by his step father who is a Muslim like his real father. Barry was listed as a Muslim on his school records. Barry as an adult assoicates with terrorists, whitey hating “clergy”, Farrakhan, indicted Syrian slum lords and has pals linked to Hamas. Little Barry supports baby killing.

buckeye view   August 20th, 2008 - 10:48 pm

A Buckeye View:

Republican John McCain “doesn’t know what he’s up against” in this election?

Mr O, do you think for one minute that your opponent — a man who spent years being tortured in a POW camp in North Vietnam and spending a lifetime in the Washington meat grinder — is going to be gripped with crippling fear and break down over some boastful, thinly veiled threat about your invincibility?

I tell you what, Mr O. Let this fellow Democrat give you some advice. This McCain guy is one tough dude and while you and your supporters may have convinced yourselves that you are the ultimate political juggernaut, a leader for the ages, Nancy Pelosi’s Messiah — you are in for the ass-kicking of your life if you think some “whistling in the dark comment” doesn’t say more about your confidence in your own candidacy or is going to concern Senator McCain in the slightest.

Quite frankly, Senator Obama, your shallowness is becoming more apparent by the day. And you obviously don’t have a clue as to what you are up against.

We ALL know what Mr. McCain is up against … Keep talking OB – just keep talking! Remember, when you loose, it’s not because of the color of your skin. … it’s the garbage that comes out of your mouth

Mike   August 20th, 2008 - 11:16 pm

Of course John McCain does not know what he is up against … he doesn’t even know where he is! The Senile One will fall! (And probably break a hip.)

rusy johnson   August 20th, 2008 - 11:26 pm

Hussein can’t take care of his brother in Kenya and he wants to take care of a country?

That commercial must have really struck a nerve! Its been two weeks now. In campaign timelines that is ancient history.

cv   August 20th, 2008 - 11:59 pm

BHO please tell the country what exactly McCain is up against. I’m sure JM is quacking in his boots over your threat.

kate   August 21st, 2008 - 12:03 am

What is Mcbush up against? The fellow Hawaiian Air Force General who was right about the troop level in Iraq as obama’s VP. Heck, Mcbush will even have to salute him. Do you want to talk now?

Chris   August 21st, 2008 - 12:14 am

Putin to Obama…..
“You don’t know what your up against.”

Jamesb   August 21st, 2008 - 1:41 am

I’d say he knows what he’s up against. A powder puff that dosen’t compare to a North Vietmanese Soviet trained torture expert. Barak your a lightweight, save the tough guy talk, it’s kinda embarrassing and you don’t pull it off well. Face you’re not “Bad Bad Leroy Brown, baddest man in the whaole da-mn town, badder than old King Kong, meaner than a junk yard dog.” Thank you Jim Croche.

m-antony   August 21st, 2008 - 2:57 am

obama is becoming laughable.Watch out McCain, you are up against an idot, who is unpatriotic. G0d@mn America. obama, do I see chickens circling?

jas   August 21st, 2008 - 3:28 am

MsUnderestimated   September 7th, 2008 - 6:01 am

You can say all the crap you want to, Obama, but you are the one who deserves fear. I’m fearful of you because you want to take all of my money if I’m successful in starting a business. Yes, I would be in that >$250K arena…but you know what? If your tax plans are in effect, I can’t hire anyone, and honestly I’d be hesitant on starting my business.

You will single-handedly ruin this country, Mr. B. Hussein Obama.
