I have no qualms about reading WND or posting their articles unless I disagree with what they say. And I feel that way about any site.

But I can't recall any stories I have read which I refrained from citing them as a source to link to. All I recall are a few posters, here and there, who seem to have a problem with WND.

Out of my regard for you I will spare you the withering condemnation I usually express when someone disparages any source based on their reputation.

I quote MSNBC, NBC, the NYT, Daily Kos, Moveon. org and al Jazeera if they have the goods. I'll use a quote from Clinton (Billary), OBL or Hitler if it helps me make my point.

End of sermon.

For the record.

If you people think that Communism/Marxism is limited to a simple economic philosophy, Google: Antonio Gramsci, Georg Lukacs, Max Horkeimer, Theodor Adorno, Felix Weil, Erich Fromm, Wilhelm Reich, Herbert Marcuse, The Frankfort School, Institute for Social research...

also Google: "cultural Terrorism", "cultural Pessimism", "critical theory", "matriarchal theory", "androgyny theory", "personality theory", "authority theory", "family theory", "sexuality theory", "racial theory", "legal theory" & "literary theory".


These people helped mainstream the: "White man's greed runs a world in need" & Black Liberation theology attitude.

So that means you might be posting here at DP and someone expressing a view might be a paid propagandist without telling you.

That seems really scary to me.

And a Communist to boot!

The more you look and the closer you look the more rats you find running around in Obama's campaign.

Are these the kind of people you want close to the Oval Office influencing policy behind your back?



Paid bloggers?


what a freaking hypocrite. he whined and cried to glamour magazine about how the bloggers were mean to his wife and how he is going to restrict them if elected yet now we have him doing the same thing.


freakin hypocrite.

He and some of the people on his staff sometimes talk about a re-distribution of wealth between the rich and the poor. Well, this is his grand Socialist vision about to be passed.

He could be trying to make America a Socialist/Communist state and then seek to conquer the world by making the poor people on Earth dependent on the developed (United) Nations.

For the Marxist cause?

For Obama's personal gain?

For America?

For Islam???

Re: Another Unsavory Obama Associate a Communist

So now you are once again caught spinning your point, such as "The Obama Bill." How about you add a few names to that title in order present it accurately. You act as if this is Obama's grand plan, yet you fail to mention the dozens of other co-sponsors.

To be quite clear, I DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BILL IN ANY WAY. I just want to point out bhkad's tactics here...as if I really need to.

You are a one man hype machine, like the Energizer Bunny but not cute and not good. What I think will be most enjoyable about all this is when Obama wins. Will your head actually explode?

Say hi to TOT for me.

What the Global Poverty Act Would Do

It seeks to eliminate extreme poverty by:

* Declaring it official U.S. policy to promote the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty, and the achievement of the U.N. Millennium Development Goal of cutting extreme global poverty in half by 2015.
* Requiring the president to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to carry out that policy.
* Including guidelines for what the strategy should include — from aid, trade, and debt relief, to working with the international community, businesses and NGOs, to ensuring environmental sustainability.
* Requiring that the president’s strategy include specific and measurable goals, efforts to be undertaken, benchmarks, and timetables.
* Requiring the president to report back to Congress annually on progress made in the implementation of the global poverty strategy.

*The Global Poverty Act passed out of the House Foreign Affairs Committee on July 31, 2007 and was passed by a unanimous voice vote by the full House on September 25. For more information, please contact Katy Quinn with Rep. Adam Smith at katy.quinn@mail.house.gov or (202) 225-8901 or Jason Britt with Rep. Spencer Bachus at jason.britt@mail.house.gov or (202) 225-4921.

** The bill was passed by unanimous consent by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on February 13, 2008.

WorldNetDaily is nothing but a tabloid rag. If you can't see that, then you're the type that enjoys getting your daily news from a tabloid rag. Judging by the quality of threads that you start here, it's quite obvious.

To give an indication of the intellectual level (or brainwashability) of WND readers, here's a poll that was put out by that cyber-rag, asking for opinions on the Obama New Yorker magazine cover:

WND's online, non-scientific poll received the following results as of 10:07 a.m. on July 14:



A total of 60% think that it's actually close to the truth. Unreal.

That's some journalistic standard. Basically, you'll quote whomever agrees with you, regardless of their credibility.

I quoted Huffington Post once. It was for Obama's race speech. It was for convenience as I copied the link from another poster on another thread. I wouldn't use Daily Kos or Moveon.org. If they have the "goods", it will be verifiable through other, trusted sources.

What is amazing to me is the notion that Obama's campaign, or the Democrats for that matter, is somehow addressing the economy.

Here's their prescription for the economy: more regulation, more taxes and blaming the previous administration while still not allowing further exploration or drilling, new nuclear plants and building refineries.

Bottom line: Don't judge us by our inability to provide a coherent plan, judge us by how we care and feel.

Carry on; I look forward to many more of your red herrings and resistance to honest intellectual debate.
