A Clear And Present Danger CanadaFreePress.com October 14, 2008 Excerpt: We may soon see a “clear and present danger” to the United States, become elected President of the United States.
Strange days, indeed.
Merriam Webster’s Dictionary of Law defines a “clear and present danger” as being “a risk or threat to safety or other public interests that is serious and imminent.” You may be sure that Barack Obama’s agenda poses a serious and imminent threat to the United States.
Before I explain that charge, let me make a couple of facts very clear: I am not a right-wing extremist, nor am I a racist. I don’t have much patience for left or right extremism, and I find racism of any type; moronic and evil.
I have no axe to grind with moderate Democrats. I find some of their ideas sound, and worth looking into. I’m a Republican, not because I think Republicans have a monopoly on the truth, but because I identify more strongly, more often, with the Republican viewpoint.
I have no interest whatsoever in slamming Obama because he’s a Democrat, or black, or liberal. I do believe he’s a serious threat to the United States, however—a threat of historic proportions, and potentially catastrophic consequences.
While the media pundits have been parsing statements made in the Presidential Debates, and discussing “issues,” Obama has been steadily positioning himself to destroy the United States as we know it. Hiding in plain sight; this trojan horse for Marxist Socialism, Islamic Extremism, and Black Racism is now poised to enter the White House.
How many votes do you think Obama would get running on the “Marxist/Islamic/Black Panther” ticket? He’s not stupid, you know.
An Obama Presidency represents a Clear And Present Danger because of the company he keeps such as Rev Wright, ACORN, the Black Panther Party or the Nation Of Islam who've attached themselves, they're ideology to Obama..

hehe, McCain is going down so hard and he's got the "Obama is an Islamic Terrorist!" nutters to partially blame. He's made some mistakes of his own, like Palin, but the criticisms of Obama have been so over the top that anyone with 2 braincells sees right through it.

Sorry to disappoint, but McCain's numbers have come up in the past few days and, historically speaking, Democrats lose to the GOP if they're not at least 20 points ahead during October because (for some reason) October always brings with it a 15-18 point jump for the Republican. With Obama and McCain within the margin of error in pretty much every poll today this makes for a McCain victory by about 5-8 points on November 4th.

What have you got besides Fear and Smear? C'mon--if you (i.e Republicans) want to rule, you should have some kind of positive vision, not just endless hysterical slander against the opposition. You're presenting the choice between Obama and Not-Obama. You're setting the bar pretty low when your main point is "vote for me because at least I'm not as bad as 'that guy'."

Yet that's what it always comes down to with every election.

Well, ideological as it may seem, I'm hoping people choose Hope over Fear this time.

Am I reading this properly. Isn't fear and smear what the ABC crowd did all election long.

Some I suppose. I can only speak for myself, and I don't think I did. I voted on Hope not Fear.
Edit: I think it's a shame because I think John McCain has something more to offer than Fear. He didn't start out this way, and he stills looks almost regretful that it's turned out this way (witness his telling a Republican hatemonger that Obama was a decent man, for example). I don't know what happened.

You don't disappoint, but will be disappointed. McCain isn't Mavericky enough anymore and is spending much of his time defending Obama from the Idiots who keep showing up at his events.

Well to be honest, I wanted the NDP in Canada to get more seats. I wanted to see NAFTA scrapped...
Obama will scrap NAFTA.. he is a total Protectionst and has already pushed for new laws such as The Patriot Corporation Act.
Basically rewarding companies that invest in the USA and its workers, and punish those who have foreign plants in Aisa, Mexico & Canada or off shore accounts to avoid paying taxes.
I'm not an Obama fan (hate the guy is more like it), but if the ends justifies the means, I guess I won't be to hard pressed if he is elected President.
Sure, he might kill Canada's economy as the Harperites claim, but it might do good for Canada to find other markets rather than being so closely tied to the USA and U.S. economy.

If McCain is such a maverick, why isn't he running as an independent. He's running as a Republican, whihc is the same banenr under which George W. Bush ran, with a lot of the same people, and the same establishment. Then he gets all bent out of shape when he gets compared to Bush. Well, Bush: Republican, McCain: Republican. I mean, connect the dots.
And I'm sorry but Sarah Palin is a complete Bush clone--folksy, ignorant and proud of it, Christina fundamentalist, social conservative without a clue about teh world outside her backyard. I mean, again, Sarah Palin, George Bush--connect the dots.

Unless you have endless capital to spend on your campaign, no independant will ever win a Presidential election. Period. Independants can, at times, will local or regional elections, but a national election will almost be impossible. The logistics of collecting enough names on a petition in each state to be listed on each state's ballot would be bad enough. Even worse is the habit of many Americans to check the "Straight Ticket" option on the ballot where every member of the corrisponding party gets that person's vote.
I will not argue the fact that the current two-party system is a total failure. Very few third parties have ever gained enough votes to be a realistic option for the Presidency. Third party tickets must gain a certain percentage in a previous election to qualify for campain funds from the government.

Zipper, although I do agree with your assessment on Palin somewhat, attacking somebody for being ignorant, and making numerous spelling errors just makes you look like a hypocrite. I mean come on, this isn't a race, and there is a spell check.
Anyway, the first part I have to disagree with the first part. Yeah sure there is affiliating with the same party, but come on, just because you are in the same party, does not mean you are clones or drones here. I might as well use Hitler, Stalin, or Mao comparisons for any German/Austrian, Russian (really Georgian, but it was all the USSR back then), and Chinese politician that might run anywhere.
