So I’ve done some looking around and found some voices that are similar to mine. On the blogroll they go. You know, just in case you’re wondering.

Well, Isn’t that nice?
Someone found proof that some Clintonistas aren’t really even Democrats. Can you believe it? I can’t either. Imagine, the Repugs instigating themselves into our conversation.
On one OHLGM * site a commenter found the website of another commenter who had previously never linked to her own site. The outed commenter was adamantly pro-Clinton and was pushing this PUMA bullshit pretty hard. I’m relatively sure that her and marie are good friends.
Anyway, here’s a screenshot of this loyal “Clintonista” at work on her own agenda.

Dual Citizenship?
Just saw this on a “OMG! Hillary didn’t win so GO MCCAIN!” blog.
Does Obama have two birth certificates
Are There Two Obama Birth Certificates?
HillBuzz weighs in on the Obama birth certificate controversy–the candidate’s refusal to release a copy to clear up doubts about his place of birth:
In Kenya, where Obama’s father is from, a second birth certificate for Obama was issued and registered with Kenya’s government. This is a custom in Kenya, when a baby is born to a Kenyan citizen overseas: that birth is recorded in Kenya in addition to the United States, or wherever. The blogs have been buzzing with the fact that GOP operatives have been to Kenya researching Obama’s past, and Obama’s father and other family in Kenya, and it appears they have obtained a copy of Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate.
The reason this is interesting is something no one has caught yet.
In some foreign countries, a baby’s religion is written on the birth certificate, particularly in countries with multiple religions. If Kenya is a country that requires this note on a birth certificate, and if Obama’s father had “Muslim” written on his birth certificate, then Obama has a lot of explaining to do.
The existence of a Kenyan birth certificate could account for this headline in USAfrficaOnline: http://www.usafricaonline.com/news.html

(I have the ability to add the links that were part of this exact quote. I won’t though.)
I don’t know who marie is, but she is definitely not a Progressive/Liberal/Democrat if she’s too damned stupid to realize that only a natural born citizen can ever become President of the United States. This is a fact. It is not whimsical thinking.
Oh, wait. I just realized I used a phrase that may be unfamiliar to marie and her ilk.
marie, “natural born” means that a person has to have been born IN THE U.S. if they want to hold the office of the President of the United States. That means that Sen. Barack Obama IS a US CITIZEN.
Here, dear readers, is an example of “Idiot X” in action.
Also, who the hell cares if Obama’s father is Muslim? Oh, that’s right, the people that don’t want brown folks to be in charge. Gotcha.
marie, I know it’s hard for you to wrap your head around facts, but it doesn’t matter if Obama’s father is Muslim. It doesn’t matter if Obama’s father worshiped the Goddess Isis. Obama isn’t his father. Obama was, and I’ll dig up proof of your agreement of this, a member of a CHRISTIAN CHURCH for 20 years.
What is it? He’s an angry Muslim terrorist or a follower of an angry Black minister? “Minister”, by the way, denotes a follower of CHRISTIANITY in this sense.
Why do I always feel the need to break down the most common sense explanation to something a 5 year-old can understand?
P.S.
I truthfully believe that marie is a member of the conservative right and is trying to sow dissent as requested by her boss The Blowhard Limbaugh.

So, you don’t like me
Another idiotic reason for voting for McCain is that Idiot X (I will from now on refer to random Clinton Supporters for McCain as Idiot X) insists that they are being mistreated by Obamatons (as they call Obama supporters). Because Obamatons cannot fathom why someone who was such a staunch supporter of Hillary would throw all of their principals out the window, they are somehow EVUL and mean.
Boo-hoo. Cry me a river. Guess what? Politics is ugly business. You can either uphold Hillary’s values and beliefs and hold your damned nose. Or just throw it all out the window in a fit of rage. Your call. But don’t blame me. Don’t look at Obama and say “Well, some random person on a blog was mean to me so I’m voting against you”. Get over yourself.
Luckily for the entire country not everyone feels as entitled as you. Luckily for the entire country people who aren’t so selfish are voting to get rid of the establishment. The establishment, in case you haven’t been paying attention (and considering your inability to understand the way elections work in this country) is the Bush Administration.
Oh, I’m not going to “threaten” you with the reversal of Roe v. Wade. (Though I will take a minute to tell some of you that R v. W is not a law but a Supreme Court decision which can be overturned at the whim of the SC). I don’t need to threaten anyone. I, like many of my peers, am a simple voter who cares that the Constitution of the United States has been used as reefer paper for the past 8 years. That’s all. If you don’t care about that then I can’t do anything about that.
But don’t blame me when Junior comes home convinced that dinosaurs are a myth created by Atheists to keep God out of school.

Simply Irritated
I’m so sick and tired of Clinton supporters (and I use that term loosely) telling the rest of us that we need to kiss their collective asses to get them to vote for Obama in November. Honestly, I seriously doubt that a whole lot of them are actually Progressive.
Here’s a talking point that really irritates me:
“We are 18 million strong.”
No. You’re not.
First of all, Clinton didn’t garner 18 million votes. And a good number of the votes she did get were from Republicans crossing the aisle hoping that Clinton would get the nod so that McCain could easily beat her. Hello! Then there are the real Clinton supporters that ultimately agreed that McCain sucks worse than Obama and have decided to vote for Obama. There goes your “18 million” crock of shit.
Then there’s the “selected not elected” bullshit that Ann Coulter started with (and who the hell is a real Progressive and pays attention to anything that piece of gutter trash spouts?). Here’s a clue to those just realizing that the United States holds election and primaries- they are always decided by a “representative” of the people. That means that if enough people vote for one candidate then someone else can either cast a vote for that same person if they want- but they aren’t required to. Why do you think Clinton was trying so hard to get the supers on her side.
We don’t “elect” the President, you bone-headed idiots. We “elect” the people who really do the voting. During the primaries it’s the delegates and superdelegates (by the way, the flippin’ Republicans don’t use this system) and during the election it’s the electoral college.
See? You should have stayed awake that day in Government class. You might have saved yourself a damned ulcer.
