Please Sen. Obama, keep it

Please Sen. Obama, keep it up.

Thank you, Senator Obama,

Thank you, Senator Obama, for using the L-word: LIES. Enough is enough now - time to just be crystal clear about what they're doing - blatantly lying, in order to again steal an election, and in the process jeopardizing prospects of peace for the whole world.

Keep up with the "Enough"!

Keep up with the "Enough"! and your discussion of serious issues.

Yes! Keep speaking out

Yes! Keep speaking out strongly and with heart, Barak. Stand up and meet every lie with the clarion call of truth. Your presidency is essential to our nation's democratic future. We're with you. Don't let your campaign directors let you get fuzzy or soporific.

Yes, this is the only way to

Yes, this is the only way to deal with this nonsense. Through it right back in their face and tell it like it is. We cannot survive another 4 years of the kind of incompetence and greed we've had these last 8 years.

Sen. Obama, please continue

Sen. Obama, please continue talking to the American people about the issue's and with your most original and personal style. Enough is enough and too much is plenty!!. The unforgivable strategy of the McCain/Palin campaign with Rove as ring master, is an insult to the intelligence of the American people.

required? Dear Mr

required? Dear Mr Obama--you can be folksy, too, while holding the high ground. America is hurting for some truth and also for some bottom of the heart, genuine warmth. I read Dreams and know you have it. I watched you in 2004, went online to contribute while you were still speaking--found it jammed and saw many felt the same thing you have it. Believe it and don't let THEM distract you. We are with you--the majority of US :-)

I have been yearning for

I have been yearning for Obama to get angry enough to stand up and fight back against the lies that the McCain camp have been telling. When they blatantly lie and they are not immediately called on it, they only take that as Obama being a wimp...as it is plain that the McCain camp do not know what it means to have integrity. So get with it, Sen. Obama, and force that degenerate piece of crap to fight fair. And if it has been so long he has forgot how...force him to relearn the art of being a man with morals. From the way McCain looks, he is not long for this world. His eyes say that he is ready to lay it all down. That is why I find it unforgivable that he would care so little for our Nation that he would pick a novice as his VP. It is a certainty that he will not live out his first year in office..if people are dumb enough to elect him. Or if another election is stolen. I just hope that Obama will be able to have at least a dozen Debates with McCain. I really am looking forward to the Debates between Palin and Biden. Then it will be more than obvious to the People that they would be buying a pig in a poke if they vote for the McCain/Palin ticket. Can you picture Palin having a Confrontation with Putin ? Now that is enough to cause hot flashes ...big time. Palin is at that time of life, you know, and that is no joke.

Lipstick on a pig = No

Lipstick on a pig = No better Lipstick on a pit bull = Dangerously worse! Please, Mr. Obama, we're depending on you to save us from this pit bull and it's Old dog trying to learn (no pun intended) new tricks.

Yes Sir! That's the response

Yes Sir! That's the response we need! Thank you for your focus and aplomb. Those of us who listen carefully to your word's knew you were not speaking about the Governor of Alaska; only Republicans call women pigs anyway. I have never in my long life voted for either a Democrat or a Republican for president being opposed to both parties for the way they play both ends against the middle, but you are a breath of fresh air with your candor and courage. I intend to vote for you as the exception to my usual rule, and hope what I perceive as your abundant common sense will help us negotiate the times ahead. Please keep calling them on their diversions! This is the response we need!

"ENOUGH" has to be their

"ENOUGH" has to be their new--supplementary--campaign slogan. It drives home the fact that we are both sick of and being made sick by the 1.) policies of the past 8 years and 2.) politics that the McCain campaign is spewing out to try to distract everyone from the fact that they represent and will bring at least 4 more years of reactionary hell to the entire planet. It's tough and it's simple and if people see new signs they will immediately wonder why and soon thereafter discover that these signs are a reaction to bullshit. It might put some people on guard, in consequence, against unwittingly absorbing such bullshit.

Yes! Senator Obama, YOU

Yes! Senator Obama, YOU are the one to lead us out of this nightmare that began eight years ago. Thank you for being strong and standing up and confronting the LIES. Thank you for being the leader that we crave to have! God bless you!

FINALLY! We've been waiting

FINALLY! We've been waiting for you to address the serious issues and to confront the lies coming out of the Republican camp. Tell your handlers to let you speak from your heart like you did in this video. You'll be unbeatable in November!!
