Before you bringing any more "book excerpts" to the board, please make a quick stop at this site to make sure it hasn't already been blown out of the water:

Cal, you need to spend about a day at this site! Virtually everything you've brought here has been indisputably shot down already.

At least know the truth. It will set you free.

I was going to post that.

It is funny that every single one of these has been posted here. It sure do make it's way through the pipeline, huh?

Anyone want to stand by any of those emails you posted? The quotes from the book? The "could be a Muslim" one? The "won't say the pledge" one?

Anyone?

So, the backObama is simply an objective site that searches for the truth?

MoveonoverandbackObumbla.orgy

What a stupid site. What a stupid choice to run for pres.

Cal's way of saying "I'm sorry."

The site nukes the lies and gives proof. You really gotta eat it, Cal. Sorry.

Seriously... when you impugn someone's dignity, you have to apologize. Very, VERY low class.

Who posted the out-of-contexts excerpts from his book, probably from one of those chain emails? Was that Cal or DieHard?

It was Diehard.

We're waiting...

The right wing is subtly pushing the race card and playing on people to tell them that there is no way they can vote for a black man and it's despicable.

Not much different than you are a communist if you have heintz ketchup on the table.

It's almost laughable until you realize that the cal's and the diehards of the world take it for gospel,and thats what there hoping for and thats pretty pathetic.

I'm not racist. I just tell the truth. I have many black friends and coworkers. I just don't like Obama. Your the one making this a race issue. Why? Because Obama is black and that is the easy thing to do. Make anyone who attacks Obama's credibility a racist. Pretty shallow.

The fact is, DieHard, you posted something that was dishonest and designed to mislead people about Obama, more specifically how he feels about white people and race relations.

And you've yet to own up to it.

Will you?

I quoted an email that was sent to me and followed it with this:

Actually, this was sent to me via email by someone I don't even know. I just pasted the entire thing in here to get peoples reactions. Not saying I agree with it. I would have to read the entire book, not just specific quotes which can be taken out of context.

So you agree that it was dishonest now, and not worth posting?

My post was not dishonest. So, no.

"DieHard had mail order bride

June 13 (Bloomberg) -- DieHardBrownsFan, a frequent poster on The Browns Board, was found to have ordered his wife by mail from Uzbekistan, sources say."


This was sent to me via email by someone I don't even know. I just pasted the entire thing in here to get peoples reactions. Not saying I agree with it.

She is actually an inflatable bride to boot.

DieHardBrownsFan suspicious of blacks, friends say

June 13 (AP) -- DieHardBrownsFan, a frequent poster on The Browns Board, harbors a secret resentment of black people and often referring to them as "darkies", sources close to the poster say.


Again, this was sent to me via email by someone I don't even know. I just pasted the entire thing in here to get peoples reactions. Not saying I agree with it.

This is how you started that post, entitled "Interesting Quotes From Obama's Book":

"This guy wants to be our President and control our government. Pay close attention to the last comment!! Below are a few lines from Obama's books " his words:"

And the last comment you referred to was:

"From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'"

And here's the whole passage from his book:

"Whenever I appear before immigrant audiences, I can count on some good-natured ribbing from my staff after my speech; according to them, my remarks always follow a three-part structure: "I am your friend," "[Fill in the home country] has been a cradle of civilization," and "You embody the American dream." They're right, my message is simple, for what I've come to understand is that my mere presence before these newly minted Americans serves notice that they matter, that they are voters critical to my success and full-fledged citizens deserving of respect.

"Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

Still not going to come out against passing the email along with your blessing, DieHard?

Even Steve would admit this is a dishonest email campaign designed to deceive people about Obama.

Will you?

Disinformation has become a huge part of That Party the past few years, using blogs, radio shock jocks, and Fox Comedy News to feed false and manipulative talking points to mostly white Middle American Conservatives who are terrified of the Brave New World.

That's not slander. It's a fact. Toss in oil companies funding "research" and then feeding it people like Cal, and frankly I think it's really disturbing. I'm surprised someone who wants to play maverick like Steve wouldn't be angered and offended by being manipulated like that.

And that is NOT being coy. Why doesn't that piss you off, Steve? It absolutely is The Man telling you what to think.

Again, the minority of Americans choosing not to believe in Global Warming seem to be exclusively Republican.

Why? Hmmmmmmmmm...
