Should conservatives help Obama's campaign?

He says he's a fresh face who wants to end the partisanship in Washington and solve problems, sounds good but behind his moderate mask is a doctrinaire liberal who reflexively criticizes recent conservative Supreme Court rulings having to do with affirmative action and late-term abortion. The question before the Board today - should conservatives help his campaign anyway in order to defeat Hillary? This is purely a pragmatic calculation and it's been done before, support a liberal against another liberal because you like that liberal even less, and even if Obama is the Democratic nominee any Republican contender worth his weight should make short shrift of his inexperience in the Congress and his naivete regarding foreign policy. And he's not all bad, he talks about blacks taking on personal responsibility which sounds like he has Coz as a campaign advisor, that's more than can be said for Hillary who just this past March took money from a rapper who used the n-word at least 20 times in a song. A Hillary presidency would definitely revive Rush's radio career which, let's face it, has been in the doldrums of late. Though he denies it to this day Bill launched his career and Hillary can ripen it but what's in it for the rest of us?

The New York Times has noted a small but fledgling movement of young Republican conservatives who have decided to help Obama and says it may be a harbinger of things to come. I think these people are attracted to his character not his policies, they would agree that Bill's recent condemnation of Bush's "pardoning" Scooter Libby only shows how arrogant this Washington power couple still is despite them living with the owls in Chappaqua. Barack is like opening the window to some moldy and cobwebbed attic and letting the sunshine and fresh air in, that musty old yearbook of the Clinton scandals lying in the corner, just put it on the sidewalk with the rest of the recyclables.

So please help the brother. Make checks payable to Barack Obama.....

  1. It would seem only fair since I think the left is playing up support for Ron Paul.

  2. Barack doesn't want to just stick it to the Man, he wants to work with the Man too. He doesn't call women hos, he's all for sexual healing. White women don't cross the street when he's coming down the block. Condi Rice should be his vp. He's an across-the-board kind of cat, I've given my limit already.

  3. Those rich country-club Republicans who have alot of money to play with, why not throw some dough Obama's way? The Prince of Malibu, Mel Gibson, can spare some change, the Rev. Pat Robertson ain't poor, Rupert Murdoch. If Hillary is THAT important to them, and Rudy's boosters have made this argument with regards to pro-lifers not supporting him, then go all out. Pump up Obama and get Hillary off the ticket. DEAL WITH OBAMA, got it Stupid Party?

  4. I respect Bill more than Hillary. Where is her Sister Souljah moment? Taking money from a gangsta, what a whore! I'll take the cool sounds of Isaac Hayes, Otis Redding, Stephanie Mills any day, what the hell's a Fitty? can't even speak right and he gives his son a bullet proof vest for his birthday, brought a tear to my eye. We don't need our own people calling each other The Word. It's Obama or it's nobody.
