What a bunch of ass hats these people are. I was watching CNN this morning and was amazed they were covering it as they are usually pretty left angled.
It is groups like this and the people that make excuses for them and support them that make me sick. This whole election process is starting to make me sick...
McCain won't talk about the economy because it is a weak point....Well duhhh.
Obama won't talk about Character because he has none.....well duhhhh.
Just grows very tiresome......
Back to work.....sigh

I don't understand why this thread was randomly titled "Acorn", and I didn't really want to start my own thread just to ask a random question that someone may have already pointed out on the many political posts run amuck... so here goes...
I was flipping around my DishTV channel guide and realized there is an OBAMA channel now. Haven't felt the need to watch it yet (ever). Just didn't know if anyone else knew that or not, or if it was on other satellite or cable stations?

Thanks, but I'm probably not going to click all those links. That's what I get for not keeping up with all the political stuff. I take it that it has something to do with voter fraud or something.
Plus, you still didn't tell me if the Obama channel was on more than just DishTV! Ha! ;)
Tobina, this is the first I have ever heard of the Obama channel.
Yep... The ever adoring liberal mass media directors has given Obama his own TV channel on DishNetwork (73).
And the brainwashing continues................
Make yourself an aluminum foil hat when you watch it. ::)
Tobina, I think it is only on Dish network or satellite. I have regular cable and it isn't offered on even the digital packages.
I haven't heard of it either. I'll check my DirectTv.

Thousands on the rolls after death, creating potential for fraud
Woodwick Street was quiet — with a few residents working in their yards and adding to post-storm brush piles at the curb — when Texas Watchdog visited on a recent Saturday to try to find Harris County voter Linda K. Hill.
"I'm sorry, but she passed on two years ago," said a mustached man wearing a Dallas Cowboys baseball cap and driving a motorized chair down the street. He was Linda Hill's husband, Henderson Hill Jr.
Linda Kay Hill, a homemaker and Louisiana native, died Aug. 2, 2006, of a heart attack, her husband recalled, and is buried at Houston Memorial Gardens in Pearland. But Harris County voter records indicate she –- or someone using her identity –- cast a ballot in the November election that year. Linda Hill of Woodwick Street voted in person on Election Day, records show.
She is among the more than 4,000 people whose names are listed both on Harris County's voter rolls and also in a federal database of death records, a Texas Watchdog analysis has found.
And dozens of those people, like Linda Hill, have apparently cast ballots from beyond the grave, records since 2004 show. One expert says the number of deceased names used to cast ballots may be higher than what Texas Watchdog's analysis found.
Instances of dead voters' names being used to cast ballots were most frequent in three elections, the November 2004 general election, the November 2006 general election and the
March 2008 Democratic primary, the analysis found.
Less than a month away from an election to decide the highest office in the land, some advocates worry that such errors in the voter records open the door for fraud, compromise the integrity of results and lessen voter confidence in the system.
The findings come as the group ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, has faced scrutiny in multiple states for allegedly improper voter registrations — including players for the Dallas Cowboys, not in the Lone Star State, but in Nevada. The group's Nevada offices were raided by state officials earlier this week.That's as officials in at least six states may have improperly removed tens of thousands of voters from the rolls or prevented them from registering, the New York Times reported Wednesday.

I cast my vote today, watched it go in the counting machine, and got my receipt. When I find it has washed up on the shores of the Bay, during my early morning walk of my dog Kansas, I will let you know. I did everything I can to ensure my vote counts. Curse you Mayor Richard Daley!

Did you vote for Nancy or Cindy, David? :laugh: ;D
Warph I don't live in the city. While I love going there I choose to live in a city called Belmont about 30 miles south of SF. It is quite different from SF in many ways, though not all. I was thinking about an earlier exchange we had a few months ago though. I am keeping a close watch on San Francisco Propositions K and R for you. I will send you the results.
David
p.s. Warph you really should read Prop. R. in the official voter's pamphlet to see what we have to put up with.

Of course they gave him a channel. It is a paid ad. I'm sure you can have one also if you wish to pay for it.
During the early days of cable here in our part of Colorado (1983) one could contact the local cable company and ask to be on television for thirty minutes, an hour, or whatever.
One channel was reserved for anyone's topics and one had to pay for the cable time and the content was whatever, you presented--and you had to abide by rules of no obscenity, etc.
I don't know if cable rules have changed but they were required and I believe still have to provide a free public access channel in their local area. While this channel had a bunch of junk some of the best, worst, most innovative, and just plain odd shows were a great attraction.

By the looks of my yard. I DO get outside quite often... ;)
The frustration ( not anger) comes from the liberals not opening their eyes or ears and realizing that what is being said about Obama the Messiah..is not rumors...
do your homework honey... Those things are FACT! ;)
Homework is done and gold stars are the order of the day. Obama rumors are all avilable on Snopes.com, it is a good idea to visit that site, and avoid the racist, narrow minded, alarmist sites that are sponsered by such people as KKK, skinheads, nra, all the far right wing loonys. :P :P :P
Geez classin the NRA with skinheads and the KKK is a bit harsh ain't it? I used to be a member of the NRA, lasped right now but figure to rejoin, I'm pretty sure I ain't a far right wing loony! Neither are any of the other people I know who are or have been members.
Pam, I agree with you, I have been along time NRA Member, and there are people of all races that belong to the NRA. In fact the Majority of NRA Members are freedom loving Veterans and hunters. The only reason the Obama camp says they are racists is to try and discredit the NRA stance against Obama, and cover up his anti-gun remarks. Having the history of having the Rev Jeremiah Wright as his Minister and mentor for 20 years like Obama has had, he should never bring up the subject of racism. I think even you and I agreed we would vote for Colin Powell and/or Condeleeza Rice, and every person I have ever said that to has agreed they would vote for them as well.
Homework done A +

I read an interesting article yesterday about the Democrats/Obamacrats pointing the Racist finger at the Republicans. The main point of the article was that Slavery was a product of the Southern Democrats and slavery was abolished by the Republican President, Abraham Lincoln and it was by the Blood of the Northern Soldiers who were virtually all Republicans.

Yeah I WOULD vote for Colin Powell but I gotta decline on Condoleeza lol

Actually... both are technically wrong. Black slavery was a product of Africans enslaving their own people. Tribes would invade other tribes or villages, capture, and enslave them. They would then trade their slaves which cause slavery to spread. Slavery has been around nearly since the beginning of time though so its like not it all of a sudden started in Africa or with them trading.
And finally, to those who play the black slavery card, what would happen to all of the black citizens say if a person were able to go back in time and end the black slavery at Africa before it started to spread? Answer: most of them probably would not even be here nor likely even alive. If they would even have been born (the survival rate of their predecessors would likely be much less), they would be in a much worse position than they are now... though I wouldn't really consider them to be in
that bad of a position considering the handouts you can get being a minority and the simple freedoms on living in the U.S. Heck... going by the above, if slavery had never been spread here we probably wouldn't even have a black man running for President of the U.S.
If I were black (and in the same mindset I am now) I wouldn't be complaining about my ancestors being enslaved... I would always keep in mind everything they went through that eventually got blacks to where they are now... FREE in the United States and with one even running for the highest power in the nation. You can't tell me that would be happening right now if slavery had never been spread here. Something like that would probably still be quite a few years down the road.
That's my rant for the day. :angel:
