Great orator. Did you ever hear Lincoln speak? Evidently it is not the words but how one delievers them that counts according to many people here. We don’t know how good an orator Lincoln was. Obama is not a great orator he just has the media spin on his side telling everyone he is 24- 7. Because what he says is so bad, they don’t want people dwelling on that. Being an orator is overrated.

Rabs, it is too bad that you have to attract the ire of the loons here.

When you are receiving fire, you are over the target.

Keep up the good work, and I hope you did well on that mid-term.

"Who do you think are the 'overlords?'—not challenging you, just trying to educate myself."

Firstly, NEVER worry about "challenging" another poster or their claims....

To answer your question, all you need to do is pay attention to your eyes and ears, and your common sense.

The GOP has openly and clearly become a vehicle for the "back-door" Global Elites whose agenda is to compromise and weaken America's sovereignty.

Address just this one question:

Why would a "conservative" Republican President allow a virtually unrestricted Invasion of millions of Mexicans through the America southwest to go on unbated - even after 9/11 - while at the same time advocating Amnesty for those very same millions of Invaders?

I’m writing this on Wednesday...I went to this thread today because I wanted to see if anyone else noticed this audio problem, it was really frustrating, and every channel/network had it. It reminded me of another time a Republican was giving a speech (Bush as President (?)) and the same type of audio blips were ruining the speech.

Couldn’t believe it when he got his program. He is no Conservative. Also didn’t agree with home schooling as Governor.

That's really bizarre, because Home School Legal Defense Association endorsed him for the Repub nomination.

Exactly the correct attitude to take... and we on FR and the GOP would ALL be stronger for waiting until 2011, when all the debates will start, to start weeding out who is good and who is bad as far as presidential material is concerned, in the meantime we should watch, read and begin to form educated opinons of the potential candidates. Look at the cheerleaders here for Duncan Hunter... even today... yet we know, now, he was the leading recepient of money from the DC Lobby firm under federal investigation (thanks to the crooked Jack Murtha). We do need to stop being cheerleaders for anyone and become hardcore analysts of both sides of the aisle.

Being an orator did not make Obama president. Propaganda did. The media controls the minds of the masses. If Obama was such a good orator the media would not have had to push him and shill for him as they did.

That you would call them liberal

Straw man. I said they favored Obama over McCain, just like the libs. I said they share Obama's and Ron Paul's blame-America-first views on foreign policy, just like the libs. You can't counter my actual arguments, so you create straw men instead. The rest of your post is flat out bizzare. I'm a 'NeoCon' who is 'assulting Conservatives' by disagreeing with those who favor Obama over McCain? Your rhetoric is no different than the far left and those kooks on the Ron Paul forums.

I favored *neither* of them.

I can easily counter any argument that ends with McCain as President. Just as I can easily counter any argument that ends with Obama as President.

Anyone who would give McCain anything, Palin or no Palin, is no Conservative.

Since my argument related to the general election which had only two possible outcomes, McCain or Obama, your response has no relevance. And why aren’t you still ranting about ‘NeoCons assulting Conservatives’? You suck at defending your pals.
