Obama Can!11:13AMJun 27th 2008
I am a lifelong Republican and I have never voted for a Democrat for
president. This is about to change because I hate McCain! McCain was
in Vietnam for many years and his wife at that time faithfully waited
for him. Then when McCain returned, he left her and married Cindy
only
for the money. McCain was tortured for five years. I would not be
surprised if he were not totally sane after that. My Uncle Henry
fought in WWII and was never sane after that. McCain is known to have
a temper, when will he blow? Also McCain voted to overturn Roe v.
Wade. I may be a Republican but I am a pro choice woman. McCain is
against equal pay for woman. That is horrible!!!!!!
Yes, I do not like Reverand Wright. Obama did denounce him but McCain
denounced his reverand too. His Reverand John Hagee is worse than
Wright. This is what John Hagee has said on woman.
“Do you know the difference between a woman with PMS and a snarling
Doberman pinscher? The answer is lipstick. Do you know the difference
between a terrorist and a woman with PMS? You can negotiate with a
terrorist.” [God’s Profits: Faith, Fraud and the Republican
Crusade for Values Voters, Sarah Posner]
“[T]he feminist movement today is throwing off authority in
rebellion against God’s pattern for the family.” [”Bible
Positions on Political Issues,” John Hagee]
Isn't this the worst thing ever!!!!!!!!
Please do not vote for McCain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He will continue our failed economic policies and waste money on the
war. I was for it at first but now I do not like it.
Obama 08'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Subj: FW: Post Turtle
While suturing a cut on the hand of a Texas Rancher whose hand had been caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually, the topic got around to Obama and his bid for the presidency.
The old rancher said, Well, ya know, Obama is a 'post turtle'.
Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked, 'What is a post turtle'?
The old rancher said, When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle'.
The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain.
'You know he didn't get up there by himself, he sure as heck doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there and you just wonder what kind of an idiot put him there in the first place.'
