I won't work with any organization David Hull is part of

Nandia — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 08:56:28 -0700

Just as I expected David (Hull) is the man's name and "Ohio for Change" has him participating in their Central Ohio canvasses. No thanks, I'll pass. Mr. Hull barged his way into the 04 Kerry Meetups and completely dissembled groups that had been forming for over a year.

Mr. Hull is also a part of this "coalition" together with Dean Hernandez, another jerk organizer of 04 volunteers for Kerry. Maybe the bad attitude of Mr. Hernandez is what made him lose to Kevin Bacon for State Representative in 06.

If Dave H of 04 Meetups is part of 08 canvasses, they will fail

Dave H (I can't remember rest of his last name), who tried to take over Columbus Meetups, did more harm than good regarding organizing volunteers for Kerry in 2004. Very few grassroots people liked this Dave H guy or the people he was associated.

I would like to say that we

I would like to say that we did not think hard enough when we voted for Bush and now we are doing the same if we vote for Obama.He is just screaming change and how can we just close our eyes and not see this dood does no what the heck to do and there is no way on earth that he could clean this mess that is created. Honestly I might vote for him after 8 years when Clintons cleaned up the current mess. Yah he might be ready then. But he can not handle this mess at all. We need the couple 2 intelegent people (Clinton's) for this big clean up.

Obama Presidency - Yields

Obama 08 - Only hope for USA and Free World
---------- 85% of world's people being non white and Obama appeal would send a signal like none other "United States - the greatest land of our planet. ............................ Son of people who were brought in chains where they would be regarded as mere animals to serve an America whose beginnings were not true to its sweet and hopeful words. Now within a short time having an Afro-American to rise up tom lead a changed people who have come to appreciate the ideas brought forth from our founding fathers. ............................... Those persons whom we know wish us ill will see that their war is fruitless given the orator genius that we can with pride claim is ours and to some degree may melt the hearts of those so wired due to our leader having non white skin like theirs. ........................... This scenario is somewhat akin to a human taken from Britain as a slave who managed to escape - became a bishop - and returned to an Ireland that enslaved him - this was none other than their most beloved Saint Patrick.

Obama 08 - Only hope for USA and Free World
Does anyone believe Hillary or McClain are going to do us any good were either successful. Being bought persons - how are we to know? - observe their surround sound agenda pushers whom they are required to please.

<br>Obama should know the reason for the attack on Iraq had more to do with protecting our much touted democratic :) friend in the M.E. Not being a supporter of this 100 year war which after all was unleashed to stop Saddam's support for suicide bombing on our friend's usurped territory - he's outside the Pale and must be prevented by hook or by crook. The masses generally buy into the propaganda that is spouted on a daily basis - thru church and all manner of means. Their fear of being branded has them cowering in the corner. with the usual "Yes Massa" fearing.

<br>Lieberman pushes McCain as like a wheelbarrow - he who may get another chance to be VP. I believe they can kick the Billary team with ease. This explains McCain's attack on Obama whom he would fear meeting up with in November.

NAFTA shafta Ohio big time - Hillary did nothing to bring jobs upper NY.

I understand proceeds will go to the Democratic County democratic party. A worthy cause.

Thanks for the reminder

Thanks to Westside Dems for putting this together. I haven't seen Jennifer since she won. Though the Dem sweep in November was great, Jennifer's win was one of the highlights for me.

Big Guns in Dayton

TIPP CITY, near Dayton Ohio( Boner's People)
    All available tickets the past Thursday's speech by President George W. Bush at Tippecanoe High School were distributed long before the public even knew of the visit.
The secretary at the Chamber of Commerce office said she is telling callers that the people invited to attend the speech already have their tickets.
Around 500 people were invited to hear the president speak on the global war on terror.
    About 50 anti-war protesters gathered at Main Street and Garber Road just east of Interstate 75.
Like always they were well away from the route Bush took from the highway to the high school, and they drew mixed reactions from the passing traffic. Some motorists honked and waved their support while others yelled or made obscene hand gestures.
    About noon, one of the protesters, Edwin Lainhart of Springfield, was carrying two signs when a man driving a late-model pickup truck pulled up and confronted him. The man, I guess with big balls or drunk yelled that the protesters were not wanted in Tipp City.
The man exited the truck, pushed Lainhart in the chest and tried to knock a sign out of his hand. As other protesters moved toward Lainhart, the man got back in his truck. He accelerated toward a group of protesters, then pulled onto Main Street and drove away looking for a redneck rest stop.
"I have a stepson in Iraq and I served in Vietnam," Lainhart said. "I have earned the right to be out here."
    Judy Hartman of Troy said she ran for county commission in the recent general election as a Democrat in heavily Republican Miami County. She said she had never participated in a peace protest before Thursday."I have a lot of respect for the office of president, but I feel very strongly that when it comes to Iraq policy, we need a change."
    I thought that the most sensible thing that happened was when Dayton Mayor Rhine McLin said she wasn't playing politics when she turned down a request from the White House to greet President George Bush when his plane landed at the Dayton International Airport on Thursday.
It's just that she was already busy: there was a meeting about downtown to attend, a pastor to talk with and school children to read to.

I never get tired of dogging these rats. It's just that I'd love to get close enough just one time, close enough for them to see my Italian Salute.

Good and Bad

I think many of us suspected as much. Whatever the resolution, it will be good to hear from YDS again.
