Biden Introduction Message
August 24th, 2008 | by Papamoka |In the old email box tonight was a message from the Obama campaign for President from Senator Joe Biden. If you have been living under a rock this weekend, Obama tapped Joe Biden of Delaware as his Vice Presidential candidate. Anywho, here is part of the message in the form of an attached video…
It’s looking like Barack Obama’s pick of Joe Biden is scaring the pants off of the Republican’s and I have come to that deduction by all the piss and vinegar being spat out in the comments of many left leaning blogs. Just the lack of credible facts and just pure hate makes you wonder what has them so afraid? To me, that shows that Obama made one hell of a pick for his Vice President and the run up to election day should be very interesting as they try and declare Obama a Muslim and the Anti-Christ, Biden a racist, Obama an elitist, Biden not credible on foreign affairs and the list goes on and on.
Here are just a few talking points to refute terrified terrorist Republican’s out to poison the waters of truth.
Attack: Barack Obama is a Muslim and the Anti-Christ
Counter Facts: Obama is not a Muslim, never practiced that proud faith, never embraced it but his father was a Muslim. If that is the bar the Republican’s want to set then you too are responsible for the life for your biological father’s religion and damned for life! Never mind the fact that you may have found your own path to God and your religion or lack there of. Barack Obama has his own personal Christian commitment to Jesus Christ and has had that personal relationship since he was a toddler. Don’t ever question a mans religion as one Christian to another, each Christian’s love and faith in God is a private personal matter and nobody else’s business. As far as being an Anti-Christ, Hitler was Godless, Napolean was Godless, both according to most religious historians searched for personal wealth, power and glory, and not truly for their fellow man. I’m sure the Anti-Christ would not be backing health insurance for all Americans, for that matter ending what can be an endless war in Iraq. Isn’t the Anti-Christ supposed to be pro disease, famine, plague and war? What is shameful is the fact that John McCain is not stepping forward to defend a fellow Christian, a fellow Senator, from this accusation but in fact promoting it.
Attack: Joe Biden is a Racist
Counter Facts: This accusation comes from a conversation Joe Biden was having in regards to his then political opponent in the primaries. A conversation meant in all context as a compliment to Barack Obama as clean and articulate. Obama himself was not offended as an African American and stated so. If you asked who did more for Civil Rights in the last thirty years, the author or co-author of many of the changes people have in todays society were started or worked feverishly for and by Senator Joe Biden. While your checking those facts out then you can also check and see how many of those laws that John McCain voted against.
Attack: Obama/Biden is an elitist
Counter Facts: Um, it takes serious money to be an elitist and last time I checked Barack Obama’s and Joe Biden’s net worth combined is less than $2 million dollars. On the other side of the aisle is John McCain and his wifes net worth set at over $110 million alone. Add Mitt Romney to the Republican ticket come their convention and you have roughly another $175 million dollars in net worth. Is Obama well educated, Harvard likes to think so and he EARNED his high placement in his graduating class while in college. That is not being an elitist, it’s called getting the best out of your education! As for Joe Biden being an elitist, find a union in America that is not supporting Joe Biden and I will show you a Wall Street investment firm. Oh wait a second, they don’t have unions on Wall Street. Biden is as middle class as you get as a Senator in Washington.
Attack: Joe Biden is not credible in foreign policy
Counter Facts: ROFLMAO!!! He heads the Foreign Relations Committee in the freaking Senate… LOL, ROFL. Who do you think could name the leaders of most of the nations around the world instantly and correctly? Then tell you the form of government they have, who our Ambassador to that nation is, and tell you a little history of that nation? Joe Biden could! McCain could not even remember the number of houses he has? ROFLOL!!! I’m laughing to hard at this one…
Enough said for now…

With Obama’s hatred of lobbyists..How to handle Biden’s son Hunters current job might give the Big O an Excedrin Headache…he founded a lobbying firm that hearts Big Pharma.

What is the bigger picture Dusty? Craigs world or yours that you live. One is offering change and the other is just bull! No offense intended to you. I tend to look at the bigger picture and I want my kids to grow up in a world where people actually talk to one another unlike the other side of the political aisle where they tell us what to fear, demonize those of us that think differently, and lie to get elected. Not me my friend, no way!
While people in Craig’s world are dishing out bull and telling you and me what to fear and that we should always live in fear I find that to be the most obnoxious part of this nation. Dont tell me what he or she said, tell me what he or she will do to fix it.
Sorry for the rant Dusty. Group hug or you can just smack me upside the head my friend. I’m good either way.

Hey, My belief is that it can’t be any better if McMansion gets the job..just worst!
As for Obama…I am withholding my vote from him because of his FISA stance, NAFTA stance and a host of other things that piss me the hell off about him. I can not in good conscience vote for him…sorry.
I really hope I can vote for him four years from now…I hope he proves me wrong..I swear I do. Nothing would make me happier than for Obama to reallly change things.

I disagree. Wikipedia says of Elitist:
Properly, an elitist is one that thinks that the opinion of those who are brightest, most accomplished in a particular field, or with training and experience that set people apart from the mediocre masses ought to be given the most weight. One doesn’t, oneself, have to be a member of the elite to be an elitist. If one thinks that the opinion of a scientist with degrees out the yin-yang and who has won a Nobel Prize in physics is to be given more weight than the opinion of one who once took a course called Physics for Those who Wish to Refute Old-Earthers and Evolutionists at Podunk Bible College, you are an elitist, even if you are a street-person and lack two nickels to jingle in your pocket. In short, if you think Obama, by reason of his high grades at elite, Ivy League schools, editor of the Harvard Law Review is, for that reason better qualified to run the country as President than McCain, who ranked near the bottom of his class at the military academy, you are an elitist. Anyone here who doesn’t think that Obama’s intelligence makes him better suited to be president than McCain? Anyone?
Elitists!
In this sense, which is non-pejorative, I think Biden is probably an elitist and may even consider himself to be, by stint of his long years on the foreign affairs committee in Congress, to be a member of the elite.
But there is another use of the word, a use that doesn’t fit this definition. Again, from Wikipedia:
In this sense, I think Biden lacks the whole “elitist” vibe and is much more the common-Joe type in spite of his long experience with foreign affairs and policy in Congress.
I believe the charge comes mostly from his comment that he thought he probably had a higher IQ than some questioner who asked about Biden’s own low ranking in his class at law school. If, based upon no knowledge at all of a questioner’s education, experience or expertise in some particular field, you think your IQ is probably higher than someone who asks you an uncomfortable question in public, you may not be an elitist in the proper sense but you may be a snob having a snit.

Just for fairness’s sake, the Wikipedia article on Elitism carries the following disclaimer: “This article or section may be inaccurate or unbalanced in favor of certain viewpoints.”
I’m not sure why, though. The article seems to fairly present the various senses of the word.

Seems to me that the left is receiving much of what the right has been receiving since the two nominations where locked in. None of it is really different that the charges leveled against Thomas Jefferson. And none of it is based in fact.
The election campaign mudslinging is just getting going; the only difference is the lack of calls for a clean campaign, with no attack messages.
I’ve seen a few elections in the past, and this one is going to be interesting

Politics has always been a smarmy business, as Mr. Long points out.
That said…I want the Dem’s to quit pulling their punches and slap McMansion around a bit more..no lies, just blatant truthiness.
