My mom is watching that garbage on FOX. My stepfather was flipping
channels and stopped on that channel because he saw OBAMA. Anyway, I told her it was right wing trash and she was like really? Then she started telling me about how they were showing Obama's house and how Obama lives near Ayers and Farrakan (sp?). I kept telling her I did not want to hear it. I told her you could not pay me to watch Fox. Finally I told her that if she wanted to watch Fox then okay but that I had to go because I was not going to listen to her tell me about it. I did not want to hear it. I'm sure she is still glued to the show. I hope she does not believe it. She was going out of her mind during the primary listening to the garbage on CNN. Fox is a million times worse. Anyway, I hope there aren't others just channel surfing and land on that to listen to that garbage.

1. How dare he live near bad people.
Only buy a house if everyone is wonderful for a 50 mile radius.

13. Quick, scope out the neighbourhoods around McCain's seven houses.

There has got to be a couple shady characters around there somewhere. ;)

3. My father is a member of the NAACP and former member of....
the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee.

Until he was sent to prison to die a lonely death, we used to live near the man who killed Medgar Evers (Byron De La Beckwith.)

This is America ......... people can live in the same neighborhood and yet have nothing in common but complete disdain for one another.

Louis Farrakhan does not live in Hyde Park he lives in the Kenwood neighborhood on 48th & Woodlawn. Barack lives in Hyde Park. Did fox also state that conservative Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens lives in Hyde park? Probably not. lol

10. 3 Mths ago, my Dad was saying "I ain't gonna vote for that (n-word)"
3 days ago I brought an Obama Biden yard sign to him, he told me, "Go ahead, put it up" He is coming round to it.

Dad is 83, WWII Veteran. Mama, 80 y/o needed no encouragement, she wanted Hillary but is happy w/ Obama. Our ancestry/religion is Swedish Lutheran. They do watch Fox, CNN, MSNBC. They will vote Obama irregardless.

I'm still shocked Daddy let me put that sign in their front yard. He must be very very angry at something.

Would it be inappropriate to giggle at this point?

11. Neither Ayers nor Farrakhan are being subpoenaed,
John McCain's running mate is.

14. Interesting that repukes are willing to point out the guilt by association trick about Obama,
and yet no mention of the Bush's doing business with the Bin Laden's.
