So let me see if I got this straight...

You "inserting" Charles Keating and a scandal from 1989...Fair game...

Someone mentions Reverend Wright, a scandal realized for less than a year...Well that's just "so old it stinks"...

I think they are both off point. I am going to make an effort to let you guys spread this BS without my comments. Its a waste of my effort. I can't wait to see what you guys do next to attack citizen of our country who is trying to help. I haven't been going around posting every nutty story some left wing group promotes about McCain. But I spend way to much time trying to shoot all the BS down. Lets face it there are some here who simply want to run the guy down. Fine. Do it by yourselves. If you ever have a real serious issue to discuss about the election I'll be here. But Obama's brother. His Muslim dad. the efforts at tagging him racist or elitist etc. I'll leave that to you all. I don't spend my time posting anti McCain drivel. But I sure spend a bunch of time answering these ridiculous threads. The sad part is that I can see how the right will fall in behind our leader after the election. They will do nothing but attack him for 4 years.

When will you face reality? The reason there are so many different charges to defend Obama against is because Obama is such a flawed candidate!!!

Again and again and again... It's not one or two associations, it's a long and growing list of associations. This is not about any particular person or association, but the blatant pattern of associations. At what point do you start thinking that just maybe there's a problem? ... or are you just going to ignore this whole issue and blindly follow with no objective analysis?

Hardly.
The reason there are so many different charges to defend Obama against is that the internet - with its freedoms and lack of required responsibility for information posted - makes up shit as fast as it can be created, distorted or twisted.

And yet, if we were to try to apply the same logic to Bush...

And the WILLINGNESS to EMBRACE these lies is staggering.
Even if you point out the source saying the "claim" is not credible, there are some people who insist that cannot be relevant since it's a "presidential election".


What can be done against that level of intellectual dishonesty???

From their arguments and pretense, they are justifying their own condemnation on their own WILLINGNESS TO EMBRACE LIES. A thorough lack of concern over when the lies are busted.
When the lies are exposed, suddenly it becomes "well, there has to be at least one needle in this haystack and therefore you gotta go against Obama..."
Quite frankly, I think that says a lot more about them than it does Obama...

President Bush has a "Michael Moore" and a "Cindy Sheehan" that do more embarrassment to themselves (MM & CS) than they do to Bush.
The attack squad against Obama is "legion"...

But it's not one or two incidents, it's a growing list of people associated with Sen. Obama that anyone with two functioning neurons would not want to be influencing the POTUS. How many more people with radical/racist bacjgrounds associated with Sen. Obama is it going to take before you see the pattern???

Well, that should mean it will be easy for you to explain how and why they are harmless or bogus.

I'll even help you out.

Michelle Obama is only slightly embarrassed by our country. Last night at the DNC when she gave her speech she proved it.

Ok. Now, you refute the rest of them.

Hello? Hello? Anybody home? Huh? Think, foundit66. Think! GWB isn't running for President.

You are unable to answer the allegations by yourself? Why don't you and tristanrobin work on it together. Maybe you'll figure something out.

I have posted the list of questionable people and associations. Prove they are lies. Show us which ones are harmless so that we can really focus on getting Obama to explain those to us.

If he satisfies our concerns then the legions of us who are now anti-Obama, we might suddenly grow quiet.
