Affirmative-action Democrat mediocrity

Democrats were in a conundrum at their convention in Denver because Hillary Clinton is not their presidential nominee.
Barack Obama is their nominee solely because of affirmative action.
Affirmative action, the liberal mantra placing mediocrity over competition and merit, was ripping Democrats apart at their convention.
Their own mundane policy is destroying the Democrat party within.
In essence, affirmative action does not result in the best qualified and a myriad of Democrats know this.
Liberalism is a mental disorder.
Congratulations President-elect McCain.

Leaders of the democrat party got their nominee Barack Obama a black American , has their presidential candidate before primaries. Hillary who appeal woman’s support making a taught race, because of that she was condemn for her actions for leaders like Howard Dean, asking to stop her campaign in the middle of the primaries. Hillary was hurting their candidate Obama, doing a favor to the republican party exposing some truths about him , those truths in the long run are damaging his presidential race. Obama has a history behind and he can’t get away from that. Obama should at this time after the convention at least 2 digits away from McCain, but with all the negative campaign, the war in Iraq, the economy, the millions of dollars in propaganda and the media bias Democrats cant’t do better than that

Better than Fred Yohey,
Why not nominate Cory Stewart? He’s already in charge of way more people that in Wasilla, Alaska. Seeing how he used to work near Washington, D.C., with all them there embassies and foreigners running around, he has even more foreign service experience than Gov Palin. He’s probably driven past the Pentagon a lot, so that gives him more Commander-in-Chief experience than Gov Palin also.
As VP, Cory Stewart could do to the US what he did to PWC. That thought should make all the local Republicans really excited.
We should hold a contest. Can anyone think of other potential Republican VP nominations, just in case Gov Palin decides she’d rather stay home and change diapers instead of being Senator McCain’s sidekick?

“And the hypocrisy from the left on McCain’s pick who happens to be a working mother. “
Yeah right, Cobra. We’re all happy that she is a working mother, and I’m personally glad to see a woman getting a shot at high office. Unfortunately that’s the only thing anybody seems to know about her. She’s a working mom, and she’s against abortion. And?
That seems to be all John McCain knows about her too. Apparantly he just sent his lawyers up to Alaska to fully vet her yesterday. There’s judgement for you. How about doing your background check BEFORE you pick this lady for second in line to the Presidency?
You don’t get to call hypocrisy on anybody. You just spent a year complaining about Obama’s big “lack of experience”. Then you dance around like a bunch of fruitcakes celebrating the executive experience of the recent mayor of Wasilla, Alaska. Population 7000. We have about the same number of people in Dumfries. Maybe we should nominate Fred Yohey.
Sorry, Republicans have cornered the market on hypocrisy. Doesn’t seem to be much left for the rest of us.

Old, conservative white guys will swear up and down that race has nothing to do with how they will vote in November. If you want to know the truth though, just read this letter.
Forget everything that Obama has overcome in his life. Raised by a single mom, got into Harvard without putting his race on the application. Got his law degree, won elected office, and beat arguably the two most powerful Democrats in the US to win our party’s nomination for President. Forget that 38 million people tuned in to hear him speak last week.
All this old white guy can see is affirmative action. Pathetic.
Want to know why I’m supporting Obama this fall? 1) He shares my progressive beliefs on a direction for our country. 2) He’s smart as hell. 3) Unlike so many other Democrats, he’s not afraid of Republicans.

Man I just love to watch Libs squirm. Makes for great entertainment on a slow day at work. Robert sure knows how to pull their chain. When Phdeebag talks about mental illness I tend to believe her as she knows what it’s like to suffer from such an affliction being a resident of St. Elizabeth’s all these years. And the hypocrisy from the left on McCain’s pick who happens to be a working mother. Has that not been the mantra from the Left for the last 30 years when it came to woman’s rights? I mean I’ve been hearing We Are Woman for a long time and now that the Republicans put up a working class mother they are all of a sudden accused of not being able to handle the position and still be a responsible mother? Libs keep talking out of both sides of their mouths.

Hilarious. I wonder if Molleur wrote this letter before or after McCain selected the most unqualified woman available as his VP. Pure tokenism and cowtowing to the religious whackos.
What a doofus!

Molleur seems obsessed with mental disorders every place he posts.
All those delegates at the Democratic Convention sure didn’t look like ‘they were in a conundrum.‘ (who ever heard of being IN a conundrum?) They looked like they were ecstatic beyond belief.
Mr. Molleur must have been watching the convention from an alternate universe. I sure didn’t have him pegged as a Hillary supporter.

I would say that if the Democrats had chosen Hillary as Vice President, that would have been affirmative action. Second place is not a prize
in a Presidential Election.
Of course, Mr. McCain didn’t choose a virtually unknown govenor from
the oil rich State of Alaska, because of her political knowledge, hardly.
Yep, what we need is 4 more years of Republican supply side economics, all that american corporate wealth trickling down to the people, in China,
Taiwan, India, Japan, and Korea.

I say congratulations, Senator McCain, for the gift that keeps giving. Within a few short (Labor Day Weekend) days, we know that Gov Palin is a member of the “Alaska First” Alaskan Independence Movement pushing for secession; was for the “bridge to nowhere” before she was against it; demonstrated great independence and willingness to take on special interests by opposing her local PTA; and is actually disliked by many Alaskan Republicans, which is a pretty good trick indeed.
Oh, and because of Alaska’s proximity to Russia, Gov Palin has all the foreign policy experience she needs to be a potential American President.
On top of all this, Libertarian candidate Ron Paul can get a bigger draw at a Republican function than Senator McCain. Yes indeed; congratulations Senator McCain and his the Train-wreck express.

Why would the Manassas JM print a troll letter like this? This person obviously has the IQ of a snail, yet it gets printed in the paper. Once again, right wing ignorance exposes itself in the pages of the local newspaper. If this is the type of person the represents the right, thankfully I am not one. What grade did you graduate from? Did you make it to 3rd grade or was it too difficult for you?
