Michael Savage asks why Obama visited his grandmother "who suddenly and suspiciously died virtually the night before the election."

87-year old woman with cancer dies. What are the odds?

Wingnut extraordinaire Alan Keyes joins lawsuit over Obama's birth certificate. It is obvious to anyone with a brain that this isn't going anywhere. The Certificate of Live Birth that Obama has released is an official document verified by the state of Hawaii.

Sultan Knish:

Everyone wishing Obama well, defending him and talking about working with him is part of the problem. That's why we have to work harder at Dissent from Day One, and maintaining a resistance to eventually radicalize the conservative media and energize the base.

Barack Obama flashes secret satanic hand sign to Bush?

Final Proof that Barack Obama is the Antichrist

666. Revelation 13:18 says "the number of the Beast ... is the number of a man and his number is six hundred threescore and six." 6+6+6=18, the number of letters in Barack Hussein Obama, who has represented Chicago's 60606 zip code.

Um... doesn't Barack Hussein Obama work out to 6+7+5? Unlike say Ronald Wilson Reagan?

You see, someone filed a FOIA request for Obama's selective service registration form, and some wingnut says its a fake. Never mind that that the form came not from the Obama campaign but from the federal government.

Dr. Robert Nelson McClelland remembers The Day Kennedy Died

McClelland looked into the head wound. Stray hairs at the back of the head covered parts of the hole, as did bits of bone, blood, and more blood clots. He watched as a piece of cerebellum slowly slipped from the back of the hole and dropped onto the cart.

(In the room with his students, Dr. McClelland softly touches the rear-right part of his own head. “Right back here,” he tells them. “About like this.” He puts his hands together to signify the size of the wound, about the size of a golf ball. “Clearer in my mind’s eye than maybe you are sitting in front of me right now.”)

Sultan Knish advocates Liberating America:

In 2003 American troops invaded Iraq to liberate it by removing a Hussein from power only to return 5 years later to an America in which a Hussein is about to take power.

What happened is not an uncommon fallacy of great nations that marshal their resources for wars abroad while ignoring the wars that must be fought at home. American military might crushed a Hussein abroad with superior force only to discover that another Hussein had attacked America's far more vulnerable political structure resulting in a hostile takeover.

Crazy Pam at Atlas Shrugs: OBAMA REGIME: EXALTATION OF KILLERS AND TERRORISTS

It's only the beginning of the legitmatisation of killers, terrorists, America haters, Jew haters, seditionists, and traitors. Wait.

Citizen Wells quotes from the Bishop Ron McRae who was present when Obama's grandmother supposedly admitted he was born in Kenya.

And to add to these unbearable torments, in these last days, Government now forces upon us an unbearable injustice, and trampling of the Constitution of the United States, in thinking to force the people to accept a foreigner as the President of this Republic, ignoring the single most important qualification for the highest office in our land, that such a one, not just gain such “power by the consent of the governed”, but that he be naturally born amongst us as one of us.

I am beginning to see a common theme here. Unable to cry election fraud because of Obama's margin of victory, they deny his right to assume the Presidency, supposedly because he is literally an alien usurper.

Georgia congressman warns of Obama dictatorship

WASHINGTON (AP) — A Republican congressman from Georgia said Monday he fears that President-elect Obama will establish a Gestapo-like security force to impose a Marxist or fascist dictatorship.

"It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he's the one who proposed this national security force," Rep. Paul Broun said of Obama in an interview Monday with The Associated Press. "I'm just trying to bring attention to the fact that we may — may not, I hope not — but we may have a problem with that type of philosophy of radical socialism or Marxism."

He's right--it does sound crazy.

It occurs to me that since joining the Atheist Blogroll, I have not done enough to deny God and all His works. (Technically, I consider myself a nontheist.)

The Official God FAQ

Question: “Is there a God?”

Answer: “No.”

Covers it. Let me add a few.

Q: But then how do you explain ... all of THIS?

A: I can't but "God" doesn't explain it either.

Q: Why do you deny God's son?

A: I wish he existed, really. I used to love his comic books, especially when Don Blake struck his cane on the ground and was transformed into Mighty Thor. But it's fiction, you know? And I loved the movie "The Vikings" as a kid, especially the part at the end when Kirk Douglas held his sword in his hand and yelled "ODIN!" before he died. Very cool.

Q: What about more sophisticated versions of God; Spinoza's God(Einsten was a believer), Tillich's "Ground of Being", etc. Maybe. I don't know and you don't either.

Blogger BF Kade pleads: Please Don't Kill Obama

There is still a very powerful fascist strain that lies just below the surface of U.S. politics. Their most blatant activities are usually reserved for OTHER countries, but the sixties showed us that they are not afraid to take direct action within our borders as well.

But if I could address those forces directly, I think I would say this:

This moment in history is different. If you don't allow Obama to complete his term, the consequences will go far beyond what even YOU can control. It will, quite literally, mean the end of the United States as a country.

So please, don't kill Obama. We are watching. The world is watching.

We're all Zapruders now.

Telegraph:

Sarah Palin's attacks on Barack Obama's patriotism provoked a spike in death threats against the future president, Secret Service agents revealed during the final weeks of the campaign.

Rasmussen: Republicans Love Sarah Palin

When asked to choose among some of the GOP’s top names for their choice for the party’s 2012 presidential nominee, 64% say Palin.

These findings echo a survey earlier this week which found that Republicans were happier with their vice presidential candidate than with their presidential nominee. Seventy-one percent (71%) said McCain made the right choice by picking Palin as his running mate, while only 65% said the party picked the right nominee for president.

I am looking forward to the the Obama-Palin debates. What these polls show is that the Republican Party and the Conservative movement is intellectually bankrupt. The GOP has been taken over by the Christian theocrats, a group that is becoming increasingly scary.

Ann Coulter: Like Sarah Connor in "The Terminator," Sarah Palin is destined to give birth to a new movement.

Yes, please let Sarah Palin be the new face of the conservative movement. I mean it.

Funny. Sarah Palin could so have a career as a B-movie actress.

Wingnut Watch

Obviously the wingnuts aren't going to let Barack Obama catch his breath before they attack. To help keep track of their efforts I am starting a new feature called "Wingnut Watch." I will also be adding a new section in the links with the same name. Don't expect to find links to principled and honest conservatives arguing substance with the Obama administration. That's no fun. I wants batshit-crazy screwballs. Any suggestions?

Who would have guessed that the Rev. Fred Phelps, the worlds worst Christian, is also a really bad father? Needless to say, he takes the part of the Bible about not "sparing the rod" literally.

Obama Wins. Wingnuts not happy.

SeeJaneMom:

Tomorrow is the last day that America will be a First World country as we go through the motions of a "free and fair" election. By evening, we will sit stunned as the last vestiges of liberty swirl down the gutter of history and more folks climb into the wagon, expecting to be pushed.

Pam Geller:

i do not recognize obama as my president, nor as the legitimate president of the united states.

Sultan Knish:

A man that represents not simply an opposing view but the view of those who oppose America and all it stands for, will sit in the Oval Office. Worse still he did not get there through a democratic election but through fraud, voter intimidation and every dirty trick culminating in a campaign that had little in common with conventional American politics and a great deal in common with the cults of personality cultivated by totalitarian dictators.

But we are a long way from surrender. The battle is over, the war begins. The United States government now falls into the hands of the enemies of this country and civilization for a time or forever. And that is part of what the war is about. The country has been in the hands of people we disagreed with, but never in the hands of people whose views are as diametrically opposed to ours as anything in the Third Reich or the Kremlin. In their hands Federal power becomes enemy power. The more ineffective and tied up they are, the less damage they can do.

Citizen Wells:

An Indonesian citizen, an illegal alien, with strong ties to corruption in Chicago, Illinois and the Middle East, has apparently won the US general election.

Note: I make a distinction between honest and principled conservatives and winguts. A few honest conservatives voted for Obama; most voted against him and are extending congratulations, even though they expect to oppose him most of the time.

Election Update

OK, I just got back from voting at the Burnett Middle School in San Jose, CA. No line. One guy out front with a "NO on Proposition 8" sign. That's the proposition to eliminate gay marriage. I voted no.

I'm going to beat Fox News, MSNBC and the rest and call the election for Barack Obama. And to the PUMA's: Don't let the door his you in the ass on the way out.

VOTE! FOR BARACK OBAMA!

I urge all readers of this blog to vote for Barack Obama. Joseph Cannon: get over it and vote for Obama. This is the most important election in your life time and you're going to vote for McCain-Palin? What are you, nuts?

I encourage all voters, living and dead, real and fictitious, to vote for Barack Obama. Vote early and vote often. (OK, I don't mean it.)

Stay tuned for continuous election coverage...

Update: Atlas Shrugs: BLACK PANTHERS BLOCKING POLLING PLACE IN PHILLY

To be fair, there were a lot of sympathetic comments too.

Two black panthers were blocking the doorway at a polling place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Rick Levanthal of Fox News is reporting live.

One of the panthers said "the black man was going to win the White House no matter what."

Nigerian Village Square:

Audacity could easily become the middle name of Senator Barack Hussein Obama, the 47-year-old junior senator from the State of Illinois who is on the verge of becoming America’s first black president, and one of its youngest, most eloquent and intellectually vibrant.

Barack Audacity Obama. I like it.

Comment on Fox News story on Obama's grandmother's death:

EXCELLENT, 1 LESS VOTE FOR OBAMA THE FRAUD!

But the laughs on him because she voted by absentee ballot before she died.

Another comment:

Another one of Obamas tactics. His grandmother dying on the eve of the election. Lord only knows what her death certificate will read. HE has probably had her in the freezer for the past year. This was his ace in the hole. No compassion here. Who knows maybe he did her in so there would be no more scandal
from relatives.

Israel Insider: Is Obama the secret son of Malcolm X?

Mind-boggling idiocy. Asks if Obama is a "German sleeper agent." WTF?

In the minds of the leftist and Islamic leaders, he is the heir to the throne of "freedom fighters", the revolutionary prodigal son – heir to legacy of black powers and black Islam -- come home to rule.

Nothing short of a DNA test is going to prove who Obama Jr.'s father really is, or, indeed who is real mother is, or is not. His long-suppressed birth certificate, which he wrote about possessing in Dreams from my Father and which Hawaii now admits is on file, could help solve the mystery.

No one to my knowledge has explored the possibility that Stanley Ann may not be the birth-mother. That would explain the lack of hospital records in Honolulu and the fact that no one can remember seeing her pregnant. Suddenly she just appeared in Washington state with a little baby boy.

Of course, some might say that the reason that no one has explored the possibility that Barack Obama's mother wasn't his mother is that it's crazy. But no more crazy than saying his father was Malcolm X.

Update: one wingnut has a theory :

Well, it just gets stranger and stranger all the time. Obama may be the son of “Toot” Madelyn Dunham and Malcolm X.

Got it? Barack Obama, likely our next President, is the son of his grandmother and Malcolm X. It all makes sense now.

Fingergate 2?

3-year old Sarah Palin. Too cute for words.

The November Surprise?: Information is leaking that Barack Obama was treated for mental related illnesses in the 70's and early 80's and may have been prescribed anti-psychotic medications. Schizophrenia is the main reported diagnosis with possible case severe depression.

Also, Bill Clinton has supported Larry Sinclair's allegations! According to Larry Sinclair. And why should he lie?

"Bill, what about this Larry Sinclair thing?" Clinton was asked by a long time NH Democrat. "People should believe it," responded President Clinton. President Clinton was asked about my claims against Barack Obama after a speech in NH today.

For real crazy, this blogger predicts MCCAIN-PALIN LANDSLIDE

America's craziest black pastor, The Hon. James David Manning, PhD presents "Colon Piss-Poor Powell is Colon Cancer". Calls Obama "Senator Tarzan." Calls Colin Powell a nigger, four times at least.

Obama Kenya Tapes Released

For some time the wingnuts have been hyping the story that Obama's Kenyan grandmother (actually step-grandmother, the second wife of his father) confirmed on tape that he was born in Kenya and she was present. The truth turns out to be less clear.

Jeff Schrieber at America's Right says that something here does not "smell right." Listen to the tape HERE and read a partial transcript.

This is the portion that's got the wingnuts all revved up:

Q: He is asking her, he wants to know something was ah she present when he was born?

A: Yes. She says "Yes she was! She was present when Obama was born."

Her questioner gets quite excited at this point. The transcript ends here but there is quite a bit more. She goes on to say that Obama was born in the United States. There is an attempt to play this as her family members attempting to "correct" the truth she just blurted out, but it seems more likely to have been a momentary error of translation. The interview was conducted in Swahili and according to this NY Times story "she speaks only her Luo tribal language and a little Swahili." Was she momentarily confused or was the translator? Did she interpret the question as "Were you in Kenya when Barack Obama was born?" which she would have been as that is where she lives.

Could there be some cultural miscommunication involved? This Youtube clip contains an on-camera interview with the grandmother in which she states "Barack is a son of this village." Which no doubt the villagers are proud to consider him.

Considering that the state of Hawaii has officially acknowledged that Obama was born in Honolulu this is all very flimsy. No wonder that judge dismissed the case.

Sarah Palin Pranked by Masked Avengers

"I see you as a president one day, too," says one of the pranksters to Palin.

"Maybe in eight years," she responds.

State of Hawaii Verifies Obama's Birth Certificate

HONOLULU -- The state's Department of Health director on Friday released a statement verifying the legitimacy of Sen. Barack Obama birth certificate.

The wingnuts will now STFU, right?

My former favorite blogger, Joseph Cannon, posted this original artwork on his blog. It seems it came to him in a dream. Why he would be dreaming of Barack Obama naked is not entirely clear.

John McCain has often trumpeted his five endorsements by former Secretary's of State. One of them, Lawrence Eagleburger weighs in on Sarah Palin and whether she is qualified to be President.

"It is a very good question," he said, pausing a few seconds, then adding with a chuckle: "I'm being facetious here. Look, of course not."

Eagleburger explained: "I don't think at the moment she is prepared to take over the reins of the presidency. I can name for you any number of other vice presidents who were not particularly up to it either. So the question, I think, is can she learn and would she be tough enough under the circumstances if she were asked to become president, heaven forbid that that ever takes place?

"Give her some time in the office and I think the answer would be, she will be [pause] adequate. I can't say that she would be a genius in the job. But I think she would be enough to get us through a four year... well I hope not... get us through whatever period of time was necessary. And I devoutly hope that it would never be tested."

This is exactly what the Presidential campaign has been lacking ... robots!

Top 100 stupid quotes from fundamentalist Christians

I think my favorite was the guy who asked if we evolved from monkeys, "how come we can't speak monkey?"

Crazy Pam Geller suggests that Malcolm X is Barack Obama's real father.

Truth Through Action has a new political campaign.

Just in time for Halloween blogger Joe Max draws our attention to this report revealing the terrify truth that the Obama campaign is in league with witches who are cursing John McCain and Sarah Palin.

Two days ago, I listened to a 9-6-08 message by Bree Keyton, a young woman evangelist who had just traveled to Kenya and visited Obama's home village and what she found out about his relations with his tribal people was chilling. And his "cousin" Odinga was dreadful. She said the witches, warlocks and those involved in satanism and the occult get up daily at 3 a.m. to release curses against McCain and Palin so B. Hussein Obama is elected.

Bree K. also said when Obama visited his tribe in '06 and as late as Jan. '08 he went to every elder's home which has a "shrine" inside to worship the genie and asked for their blessing. She was told Obama and Odinga were both "destined" before they were born to be president/leader of their nation. They say "he is the chosen one". She said Obama's grandmother sacrificed a black and a white chicken to the "goddess of the river" so both whites and blacks will vote for Obama. All Islam loves and worships Obama

There is of course nothing the least bit crazy or racist about all of this. We also read: "The occultists are 'weaving lazy 8's around McCain's mind to make him look confused and like an idiot'." I will say that the curse seems to be working.

National Enquirer: Obama Sex Perv Scandal

It seems that Frank Marshall Davis, Obama's friend and mentor as a young boy, wrote a dirty book. Therefore he must have had gay sex with 10-year old Barack Obama. The Enquirer actually doesn't say this but the wingnuts are making the connection. For more wingnuttia, with a lot of links, see Jon Swift's post here.
