New Presidential Hopeful Appears On Ballot

Barack ObamaAbsentee voters in upstate New York looking for a president that will bring real change just got their wish.

Over 300 ballots recently received by mail in Rensselaer County listed the choices for president as John McCain and a new hopeful -- Barack "Osama." Is the GOP in the printing business now?

Voting commissioner Edward McDonough apologized calling it "human error" and "an embarrassment to our office." After the Sarah Palin VP announcement, nothing really comes as a shock anymore.

34. I give you exhibit #1 on why John McCain will lose this election, this paranoid, scared, brainless fools. Why did you flock to my party? This is how ridiculous it has become, even the candidate they support is telling them they are wrong about Obama. Thats how absurd all of this is.

John McCain has so many STUPID supporters he actually has to defend his competitor from outright ignorance, 3 weeks from an election. GO RUIN SOME OTHER PARTY YOU IDIOTS!

35. Watch how Barack Odrama walks .... he walks like an f-ing pimp .... as if to say he has all the biatches eating from the palm of his hands.

He is taking all these white people who will vote for him for an f-ing ride, he is a smoothe talking snake who if elected will do harm to this country.

His radical ties and fast rise to power should be investigated ... follow the money trail - this man has a lot to hide!

36. You wanna see real fear and pain? Vote for McCain.

37. What the American people will soon find out is John McCain is a double agent for the KGB. What do you think they do in Vietnamese prison camps, its called brainwashing.

38. OK Republican for Obama so me keeping 160K out of 600K isn't enough? That's what I expected to hear. My company is private and I can most certainly sell and/or move as some of my friends have. Granted, I'm seething with rage, but I have to ask. Why does EVERY Demacrat run on a raise taxes on rich platform. Why can't they ever run on a cut spending platform? We are the second highest taxed country on earth....when is enough enough? Fact is, they know that by taxing the rich and business owners they are also taxing you. Again, 1/3 of everything you purchase is embedded taxes. But most Americans are so freeking stupid they simply don't get this (or fractions for that matter), so they just keep telling themselves the other guy is gettiing taxed. Well good for all of you, that is why companies like GE build ALL new plants overseas and the only manufacturers left are little guys like me....and believe me, we're going fast thanks to the utter stupidity of our politicians. 90% of whom have never had an honests days work in their life. 20 years from now I'll probably be jetskiing in some tax-haven....I won't be employing 50 people, but I'll be fine. The USA however will not be fine and it will have no-one to blame but itself and this stupid idea of taxing the hell out of people that create jobs.

40. Hey Matt, I realize common sense isn't your thing, but where have you been living the last 8 years while companies have by leaving the country? Why did Bush's tax cuts not keep this jobs in the country genius?

You ask how much you should pay, I have a common sense economic question for you, how does this country pay for the mess we are currently in? Please explain to me how this is paid for and I mean another reason than borrowing money from China,

Common sense economic question #2? Why are we in this current financial crises? By borrowing money and not repaying it. Seriously how hard is this to understand, any High School economics calls can teach this.

Barack Obama has numerous independantly wealthy people supporting him, he would have to, to raise the money he has so far. Why do you think they support him? Because you can't lower taxes and spend you dolt. See real Republican, fiscal conservatives, we know this.

8 years of Bush tax cuts, what jobs genius? See the unemployment rate seriously climb lately, where are these companies saving American jobs with their taxes cut? Grow a brain.

41. White Pam in Tennessee.......I'm certain actuall numbers do bore you. It's probably why you and your children will never amount to a damned thing.

42. It's funny how Barack is getting slammed by Republicans and being called name after name but as soon as people call out Palin you have the majority of the Republican party protecting her and telling us to stop. Give me a break!

Posted at 1:04PM on Oct 11th 2008 by Independent for Obama!

43. Also Matt if thats all you keep, I suggest you hire a tax attorney. 160K of 600K, right, see the internet is this useful tool that allows me to look up the tax code and your just a tool.

44. Question: Why did Obama chose not to match contributions? Anyone know the answer?

45. Your numbers don't bore me Matt. You single? I'm in MI, let's go jet skiing now.
