I sure hope Obama is ready for a fight, because it's going to be nasty
The far right is going to hit harder and nastier than ever. They are in a corner, they know it, probably feel as if they have nothing to lose and in Obama they see everything they hate, even more than Clinton.

Looking at the site that is rarely mentioned, this thread: (and don't think they don't matter, these shitheads get on rush and hannity and it goes from there)

Caption Obama Cult in Portland

Some comments:

"The Obomination against God."


"this reminds me of the twilight zone show of the alien book how to serve man. people thought what a noble book and ideal it was.

TIL THEY FOUND OUT IT WAS A COOKBOOK!

WE ARE SO DONE FOR IF THIS GUY GETS IN."


"Nuremberg 2: Electric Boogaloo"

"Now we know what happened to Shabba-Doo Quinones. "


“All Hail Thee, 666!”


"The only question I have at this point is where the 21st Century Leni Riefenstahl is to document this mass movement for the ages to come. Who will make Obama’s “Triumph of the Will?”"


"Eat your heart out Jim Jones!"


"“The only question is whether there will be anything left of the country by 2012.”

Didn’t the ancient Mayans have an end of the world prediction of 2012..coincidence?"


"The look on that lady’s face is the kind one sees on people who can be manipulated into committing evil acts they might never consider otherwise all in the name of a Leader and a Movement."


“Ein Volk! Ein Reich! Ein Fuhrer!”


"Rilly? Just by doin' a simple little dance you can make it rain? Well, blow me down and call me Sally, this I gotta see."


"75,000 tree huggers / granola eater peeps looking for their handout via the government’s teat."


"People who have this kind of dependency on government freak the living hell out of me."


"My wife says......Kill Whitey!"


"The chick with the pup is soooo insensitive. Doesn’t she know that Muslims like Obama think dogs are unclean?"



So, comparisons to Hitler, Jim Jones and references to Mayan end of the world predictions all while still calling him a Muslim with some racism thrown in for fun.

6. YES!
And I'm glad. I hope he keeps it up, and I have confidence that he will. It's just going to be a mess and not good for anyone.

8. If 75,000 people turned out for a McCain rally,
the posts would be quite different.

I always think it's pretentious when someone says "X's supporters are obviously feeling threatened" -- but in this case, I believe it's absolutely accurate.

12. True, It's funny because they say 'Rush drew that many' as a
defense, but then say it's scary when someone draws that much because the people are brain dead for following someone like that.

16. Wow. You made my point -
now I feel threatened knowing that bout Rush. Anybody who can draw such a crowd is not to be taken lightly.

13. I have been seeing this shit
on several gun-related sites for many months-cartoons of Obama with a bone through his nose, or as a monkey hanging from a branch. Also threats, thinky veiled, to shoot him if he is elected, or even if he seems to be winning. Or threats of a "revolution", etc, etc.
I an sure he is aware of this, and I'm sure it's 99.9% bullshit, but remember how crazy these people were when Clinton was president, and remember the people who blew up the OK City Federal building were right wing extremists. They may not have been Republicans, but they surely were not Democrats.
I have little doubt someone will attempt to kill Obama at some time.
I don't believe this is all rhetoric-they may be crazy and stupid, but they are mainly serious, and they are beginning to think they will lose.

14. Sad but true..hate radio will get these people all stirred up..
just like they did in the Clinton years, but probably even worse. With the situation the way it is in this country, I see urban riots in our near future once again...:cry:

15. Call them what they are, KKK. The general public will despise them if framed like that.

17. Not only is Obama ready
to fight back but I think most of the Democratic Party are also ready. Last election we were not prepared for the likes of the Swift Boat Liars and how nasty the RePukes could be but, this time around... To quote a world class infamous moran, "Bring it On"!!!

19. It's time to stand up to the nuts and take back our country.
Enough cowering whenever right wingers shout and stamp their feet and call names.

Obama's approach is not to try to run away fast saying "am not, am not!"

He calls them on the techniques and is educating America about them. That's the only way to win this fight. And it wins it in away that really does unite the country so we can work toward our higher goals.
