Human you’re an idiot, and OregonPatriot is correct Chappaquiddick Teddy did do the same thing.. So just relax, your IQ is showing. Besides Obama and Osama seem to have much in common. Better watch out Human you’re bordering on hate speech (we can play that game too).

Easy fix….just call him Hussein. Problem solved.

This the the person who’s “justice” department authorized torture, detention without charges, warrantless arrests, warrantless wiretapping, Ignored the Geneva Convention, and had to have a curtain between him and a statue of the Lady Justice. And now, nobody likes him… He is simply a true American traitor.

Stunned, the only thing we’re stunned at is how stupid you are. The USA is the most generous, benevolent country on the face of the earth. We have liberated and emancipated more people from the bonds of oppression, freed more people from dictatorships and relived more suffering for people that were dispare than you could count. We have afforded more opportunity for poeple from varied ethnic backgrounds than any other country in history. The USA is not the ones guitly of building such monuments of human cruelty as the Berlin wall, the Iron curtain or trapping millions on forced slave labor camps like Cuba. Stunned? Yes, we are stunned at your lack of knowledge, honesty and integrity.

Maybe someone should ask him what Inalienable Right means. Doesn’t surprise me. Ashcroft and his kind of ChristoFascist ideals are the greatest threat to Our National Security.

Don’t worry Stunned…

“Here”, you are walking among the pure garbage of humanity. “We” walk here too, to catch those that may still have hope… And to push the others over the abyss.

America has been attacked, and has failed… We had no leader in place to stand up to the attack. That will change. But far far too late…

Bad times here!! But nowhere to go but “up” now!!

Relax Human,

Your hatred is obvious. No need to try and prove it to anyone.

Big deal. Where was the press when Kennedy called him osama bin laden in front of a room full of congressmen. The lefty loonies can call our commanding General betray us and that’s just fine. Well Obama Hussein is a racist socialist and when he says “WE” he is speaking of blacks not Americans.

peter c   April 6th, 2008 - 2:07 am

Tnis was an honest mistake that he was sorry for.But Osama..oh..sorry Obama waited 2 days to have his people apologize for his TRUTHFUL statement that having a baby is a “Punishment!” equal to getting an STD.Where were all these booers then?Where are they when Osama…oh..Obama stood up for that America hatting racist Wright?Where were they when his racist wife claimed she was never proud of America before her lying husband ran for office..Oh ya…if Wyoming knew about Wright before they voted…Osama( Obama) would be gone long before today.But the media held it till he was a head…then they released it as soon as the could with all their poo pooing, so it will be lost history by the Nov elections. However, it won’t be forgotten.Osama…oh ya..Obama will lose this election BIG TIME!!

teddy(dwi) kennedy did exactly the same thing but not quite so much as a mention about it from the lepers of the left.Matter of fact,there really isn’t much distinction from what obama wants to do to this country and what osama wants to do.Everyone knows he is a closet muslim waiting to destroy our freedom and turn this nation over to shariah law and a whole herd of goat-molesting libs.

Bookem Dano   April 6th, 2008 - 3:05 am

2 things: where I come from those aren’t “boos” those are people saying “oh”

and as much as i disagree with ashcroft, that did sound like a mistake

KruX   April 6th, 2008 - 5:18 am

Obama & Osama want the same outcome for our country?
What have you people been smoking on? Seek some help.

Get over it   April 6th, 2008 - 5:21 am

Yeah, it was funny when Killer Kennedy said it, but boos for a republican…how very telling.

Is anybody as stunned as I am at how genuinely dumb and racist the American people are? Here’s a country that has killed millions of people, is the largest debtor nation, is the number polluter and has the largest prison population in the world. And it’s dumb delusional citizenry like “dswilli” and others rant on.

Julio   April 6th, 2008 - 6:58 am

What an idiot!

Get over it   April 6th, 2008 - 7:09 am

Yeah STUNNED, and that’s why every one wants to live here and sneaks across the border daily. It’s bedwetters like you that believe that all Americans are racist, and dumb. Such generalizations only show your stupidity. If it’s so bad here, why don’t you just pack-up and move to Iran where they can appreciate such an insightful troll like you. And by the way, just what is a “number polluter” anyway? Troll on STUNNED, troll on.

The man once embraced Islam. His so called church he attends preaches a message of hate and racism. Obama himself wrote a book that embraces hatred, and racism. What more evidence should their be? The man is a racist. Him and Mr. Byrd fit well in the democratic party.

Typical   April 6th, 2008 - 10:40 am

Why should we be surprised at his “slip of the tongue”?
Avoided Vietnam Rush and Never-Served Hannity say it all the time on their programs.
The knuckle-dragging slackjaw right-wingers eat it up.

Lonewolf   April 6th, 2008 - 6:14 pm

Big deal nothing close to the butcher job the socialist trust fund drunk Ted Kennedy did on Bama’s name. Ashcroft no need to apologize to a presidental candidate who attended 20 years of hate filled racists sermons.

byzinski   April 7th, 2008 - 4:33 am

What mix-up? I love B. HUSSEIN OSAMA…er, excuse me…I apologize to all the Muslim terrorists in the world..I meant to say I love B. HUSSEIN OBAMA…darn it….I mean B. OBAMA….no I mean Barack H. Obama…gee….I mean B.H.O….no I mean….forget it…let’s just call him B.O. and call it even.
