"I WANT YOU TO ARGUE WITH THEM AND GET IN THEIR FACE."

AP writer Kathleen Hennessey reported on Wed., Sep. 17 on some of Mr. B's new get tough stratecy in campaigning. 

QUOTE ~
In Elko, Obama tried to anticipate his critics and called on the crowd of about 1,500 to sharpen their elbows, too.

I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face," he said.

"And if they tell you that, 'Well, we're not sure where he stands on guns.' I want you to say, 'He believes in the Second Amendment.' If they tell you, 'Well, he's going to raise your taxes,' you say, 'No, he's not, he's going lower them.' You are my ambassadors. You guys are the ones who can make the case."
~ UNQUOTE

I guess if you can't win an argument on substance it's better to try intimidation?

And for the record, I know Mr. B believes in the Second Amendment -- only he'd like it to remain ancient history. He and his party are for taking guns out of the hands of law-abiding Americans.

And for the record, I don't care what his supporters CLAIM, I believe he will raise taxes. Period.

So let them grunt and grundge and guffaw and be rude, if they choose. Maybe those of us who are not supporting Mr. B will simply get in his supporters face and argue right back.

I mean, after all, Mr. B wanted a really civil campaign, and I can see now clearly how he's encouraging one to develop, can't you?

Of course, don't you just love how Mrs. B wants us to understand we shouldn't just vote for Gov. Palin because she's "cute?"

At least she is cute, Mrs. B. But I believe I would vote for her based on where she stands on the issues, thank-you very much.

Lord help us all if Mr. B is elected. Frankly, He is the only hope we have, but maybe we'll see that more clearly if B. Hussein Obama is elected.

Oh the nightmares this election season is engendering...
