The McCain campaign office in Pompano Beach, Fla., has been sporting this cute little poster on its wall, according to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. In case you can’t read the yellow highlighted quote at the top, it says:
This is the greatest nation on the face of the earth. Join with me as we change it. — Barack Obama 2008
The poster then goes on to draw a parallel between Obama and Karl Marx, Josef Stalin, Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Fidel Castro because they allegedly all said the same kind of thing to young people in their nefarious careers as dictators. Except for Marx, of course, who never led anything or anybody, but why let your message of hate get all bogged down in the facts.
Of course, the local Republican Party responded in the usual manner:
Shown a picture of the sign Thursday night, Broward [County] Republican Chairman Chip LaMarca said he was “disgusted” and would immediately go to the office and remove it.
“I’m speechless at the ignorance,” LaMarca said. “It’s not something we can condone.
“I’ll find out who put it up there, and maybe they’ll volunteer somewhere else.”
Attaboy, Chip, you tell ’em! But really, the depth of the outrage is, well, “outrageous”:
Jeffrey Sanders, 23, a Palm Beach Community College student from Boynton Beach, said he saw the sign earlier Thursday when he stopped to pick up tickets for today’s McCain rally at Florida International University.
“To label someone as the next Hitler is beyond outrageous [and] offensive. And it needs to be addressed. And if Barack Obama does the same thing to McCain, I would expect the same reaction,” he said.
Yeah, well, Jeff, if your party was not so blinded by anger, racism and venom, maybe you’d be able to see that Obama would never do something like that to McCain. See, he’s not a hater, he’s a creator; he’s not a dictator, he’s a debater.
Our beautiful soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin is the best future leader for this nation, not Senator Barak Obama. Our beautiful soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin is also would be better at leading our nation in the future after a McCain Presidency than Senator Barak Obama would be in leading our nation in the future starting in January 2009. There are great reasons our soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin would be a better future leader than Senator Barak Obama. The greatest reason for our soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin’s is ideology. Our soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin is conservative in that she is pro life, marriage, guns, low taxes, low government spending, small government, unintrosive government, traditional and judeo Christian values, Bible reading and prayer in our public schools, and military spending. Senator Barak Obama is a liberal who is anti every thing that I have described that our soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin is pro about or for. A second reason that our soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin is superior is because of experience. As a governor she has two years of executive administrative governing experience that Senator Barak Obama does not have. A final reason that our soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin is superior is because of political accomplishments. When our soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin came to office she accomplished 3 major things which are as follows: she showed great leadership in the 3 following areas: government reform, the state budget and the economy, and wise use of natural resources. She reformed government by standing up to the big oil companies by breaking up the monopoly on power and resources. She insisted on competition and basic fairness which ended the control that the oil companies had on the state, and thereby returning control of the state back to the people. She also stood up to the special interest and lobbyist, and produced major ethics reform. She lead well in the state budget by generating a surplus which came about by vetoing a half billion dollars of wasteful spending, ending the abuses of earmark spending by congress, and by getting rid of the private jet, the chef, and the chuffer. Economically under her leadership she brought about the largest private-sector infrastructure project in North American history. She also suspended the state fuel tax, and when oil and gas prices went up dramatically, and filled up the state treasury, she sent a large share of that revenue back where it belonged – directly to the people of Alaska . On natural resources she has shown great leadership by beginning a nearly forty billion dollar natural gas pipeline to help lead America to energy independence. When the last section of the pipeline is laid and its valves are opened, will lead America one step farther away from dependence on dangerous foreign powers that do not have our interests at heart. Senator Barak Obama has done nothing, so please vote John McCain for President and give to our beautiful soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin the opportunity that she deserves leading the nation into the future after a John McCain presidency. When our soon to be Vice President does lead the nation as President after a John McCain presidency,she will be the greatest President that we have ever had. Finally she is smarter than Senator Barak Obama
Thank You

Talking about “youth movements” [and Republican hypocrisy] — http://www.yrnf.com/about
“The Young Republicans (YRs) are the oldest political youth organization in the United States. Important to the growth of the Republican Party, the YRs reach out to registered Republicans, 18 to 40 years of age…
Since its creation, the YRNF has established itself as the premier Republican grassroots organization in the nation, providing essential grassroots support for Republican candidates and conservative issues on the local, state and national levels.
…The YRNF has a solid record of producing future Republican Party leaders – including Governors, Senators, Congressmen, nationally recognized campaign consultants, and community leaders.”
I guess they just forgot to mention that stuff in their sign, eh?
Kira, you forgot to mention that they all belong to the “yellow elephant” group.
Heh – well, I thought that went without sayin’! The whiny crybabies.
Hey John:
Your “beautiful” soon-to-be former vice presidential candidate is one of the most divisive figures to emerge in politics since white supremacist David Duke ran for president. She stands for everything un-American: ignorance, racism, intolerance and radical Christianism.
