Anti-Obama movie to debut on eve of DNC
By Myung Oak Kim, Rocky Mountain News (Contact)
Published August 19, 2008 at 7:58 p.m.
An anti-Obama film will be shown on the 16th Street Mall on Sunday afternoon, the eve of the opening of the DNC.
The full-length film is called "Hype: The Obama Effect." It's produced by a national conservative group called Citizens United.
"I can't think of a more appropriate time or place to hold the world premiere of this film than in the middle of the Obama media frenzy that will be the Democratic convention," said David Bossie, executive producer of Hype and president of Citizens United. "Obama-palooza is going to be more of a rock concert than a serious political event, and that is exactly the phenomenon that Hype cuts through to get to the past, politics and policies that have propelled this freshman senator to the world stage."
Citizens United, based in Washington, has produced several other movies, including one about Hillary Clinton and another about the ACLU and about Newt Gingrich. The organization includes a group called Citizens United for the Bush Agenda.
Colorado GOP chairman Dick Wadhams will co-host the movie premiere and local McCain supporters are expected to attend the 3 p.m. event at the Denver Pavilions.

Check your history. Drinking the Kool-Aid is an anecdotal reference to what happened to all of the followers of Jim Jones at his 'People's Temple'. Has nothing to do with race, Jim Jones was white.
Saying that someone should stop 'drinking the Kool-Aid' means that they should stop blindly following someone without questioning what it is they are doing/following.
You might want to try jumping to conclusions. Might even want to stop 'drinking the Kool-Aid' yourself.

America will always be a divided country until we rid ourselves of this two-party system or instill some sort of integrity back into it. Obama is an intelligent and worldy guy, however he doesnt have the experience required to get this country back into shape. McCain will put his own personal agenda ahead of the needs of the American people and shows eerie signs of four more years of the same mess we have been dealing with. Kool-aid?

If you have ever been in a position to actually run or hire someone to run anything, then you could not and would not consider voting for Osama to be our next President. He should not even be allowed on the same stage as someone with the pedigree and resume of John McCain.
Just how many danger signs do you people need before you realize Osama is a horrible choice to run our great country?? If you have been in a coma the last year then here are a few choice quotes from his own books that HE wrote. If you don't believe these(which are frankly pretty hard to believe) then by all means check them out for yourself:
From Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites.'
From Dreams of My Father : 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself , the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.'
And FINALLY the Most Damming one of ALL of them!!!
From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'
Wake up America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

denverone -
Why don't you actually read a book instead of merely taking quotes out of context. Very narrow minded and inside the box thinking consistent of typical right wingers.
Obama's quote in From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims...' was in response to knee jerk reaction many Americans had of condoning all Muslims and placing them all in the same category after the 911 attacks. He likened it to the internment of Japanese-Americans at the start of WWII.
The other quotes from Dreams of my Father are his retrospection of growing up black in a racist world and working through his challenges. Writing about his growth experience and being honest about his feelings at that time in his life.
Before you make judgment and quote out of context - do some homework first and think for yourself instead of just plucking another persons thoughts from an on-line post.

Perhaps he will be the worst thing to happen to our country. There are things about him that make me nervous, but then I could say that about any politician.
Having said that though, the GOP gave us a President who was supposed to do great things for the Country in 2000, to build upon the "Contract with America" (another promise unrealized!), and look where we are now:
> We are now in a war that was at best a mistake, at worst an outright lie. Because of that war, we are now almost within sight of losing the war in Afghanistan against the actual perpetrators of 9/11.
> The economy is in a shambles, maybe a recession, or slowdown, whatever you call it feels more like a mild depression.
> The cost of gas has skyrocketed over the last 7 years to a point where middle and lower class families are being strangled out of the American dream, while banks and oil companies post record profits. Well, the oil companies still do, the banks got caught in a bubble of greed and are now paying...
> Most working Americans are now worried about their job, their futures, their childrens futures, etc... Sorry, I can't say I was ever this pessimistic during any previous administration including Clintons'.
So, tell me, what is it about the last 7 years that for one moment would want to give the GOP another chance. We gave the GOP a 2nd Chance in 2004, for God knows what reason, and I hope and pray we are not that stupid again. If the GOP should finally refind it's roots, and start thinking about what is best for America, then I might reconsider voting for them. I'm not much more optomistic about the Dems, but it's not like I have much more choice, unless I write myself into the ballet for the 3rd election in a row!

Thank you denverone - the light just went on for me. You live in fear - and your fear is exactly what McCain, Bush and all of their fellow Republicans use to prey on for votes. 'The devil is out there and unless we secure our boarders we will be a sitting duck to those evil terrorists!' You have been bought once again.
Yes national security is a priority - but so is building and maintaining relationships with other countries and cultures. I put my values on the latter of the two. Bush didn't do such a great job of building relationships, in fact I think his tool was a bulldozer. McCain looks promising to do a better job - but Obama gets my vote.
So call me a fool, sheep whatever. Name-throwing doesn't get anywhere, its childish. Understanding and compassion does. Building fences and boarders may protect, but it also prevents people from shaking hands.
Since when does serving your country automatically make you competent to lead a country. Saddam was in the military, so was Fidel Castro... process that one.
I very much respect McCain and his service, doesn't mean he is qualified. Bush 'served' our country - look where we are now...

I also served my country as well, and had a couple very close calls despite being in Submarines (one would think they are safe compared to combat or flying, but...) However, that no more makes me fit to be Commander-in-Chief than the next person. Yes, John McCain should be admired for what he suffered in Viet Nam, and for giving up his chance to leave when he did, but that does not make him a good potential President. IF that were the case, then, as others have pointed out, what is your logic for supporting George Bush? He never served a day in combat, and depending on whose facts you believe, barely served his time in a cushy National Guard posting honorably. Whether or not I like Bush, my sneaking suspicion is that as the son of George H. W. Bush at the time, a lot of strings were pulled to keep his keester out of jail and moreso out of combat!! How honorable is that, and how does that make him leadership material?

congratulations - you just brought out your true colors. Racist. Fortunately I am smart enough not to put other republicans in the same category. I hope others can see the difference.

It's not my fault you didn't listen in school so someone can easily replace you in the work force by some uneducated person in China.
You Democrats are all a bunch of whiney babies looking for a handout. That's not in the governments job description. The government's first priority is to make sure you weak butt ingrates can live safely in this great country that our Forefathers built for all of us.
If you think voting for a FAILED community organizer, that's right, he got frustrated because he couldn't get anything done in his OWN black community and he quit, is the right man for the job, then that says all I need to know about you.
I can only hope your employers replace all upper management with failed community organizers. Like to see you sweat through that scenario. Of course you probably wouldn't notice since you think your paychecks come from the paycheck fairy.

Whoa - put down the gun and back away... everything is going to be just fine...
You really need to back off the caffeine and conservative radio talk shows. Take a break away from your cubicle - I think the fluorescent lighting is really getting to you. Go outside and get some fresh air - what is left of it. Go consume something if it makes you feel better. Go buy a few gallons of gas just for the heck of it - anything.
btw - I own my own company. My paycheck comes from my own hard work. No handouts here.

John McCain graduated 894th out of his class of 899 students at Annapolis.
He only got in because of his family connections - his father and grandfather were both admirals.
During his very short active duty military career, McCain lost five U.S. aircraft - 4 in accidents, 1 in combat.
"McCain had roughly 20 hours in combat," explains Bill Bell, a veteran of Vietnam and former chief of the U.S. Office for POW/MIA Affairs -- the first official U.S. representative in Vietnam since the 1973 fall of Saigon. "Since McCain got 28 medals," Bell continues, "that equals out to about a medal-and-a-half for each hour he spent in combat. There were infantry guys -- grunts on the ground -- who had more than 7,000 hours in combat and I can tell you that there were times and situations where I'm sure a prison cell would have looked pretty good to them by comparison. The question really is how many guys got that number of medals for not being shot down."
For years, McCain has been an unchecked master at manipulating an overly friendly and biased news media. The former POW turned Congressman, turned U.S. Senator, has managed to gloss over his failures as a pilot and collaborations with the enemy by exaggerating his military service and lying about his feats of heroism."
****************************************************
My brother was one of those "grunts" on the ground..and he will NOT be voting for McCain.
Like me, he's sick of "entitlement" kids (the children of the wealthy and powerful) getting into schools and out of wars on their connections rather than their abilities.
McCain is another Bush.
Like Bush, he couldn't be bothered to apply himself as a young man, relying instead on those connections to get him where he wanted to go in life.
Maybe if he had been a better student - he would have been a better pilot and wouldn't have gotten shot down...and therefore wouldn't be able to use the fact that he was a POW as a campaign tool.
God...get some sense republicans...stop voting for people who have never had to do the things that you do everyday...like live on a budget, balance a checkbook, or really earn their way in the world.

Funny how all you guys griping about McCain and Bush's service record, were pissed about the Swift Boat thing.
Kerry spent his time in 'Nam running around with a pistol pretending to be in command, and it was: "he served honorably..." "he is a true hero".
John McCain spent 5 years in the Hanoi Hilton and now it's just trivial, and he only had 23 hours of flight time, blah, blah, blah.
Make up your minds already. That's the problem with Dems and Libs. You all flip-flop so no one can pin you done on an issue. Obama is doing it too.

The war secrets that John McCain hides
http://www.vvof.org/mccain_hides.htm
It's all about how McCain has worked so hard during his congressional career to keep POW/MIA documents from being available to the public, much to the consternation and disappointment of the families of service men who are still not accounted for.
What is he hiding?

1. In one sentence you imply the perception that anyone who doesn't support Obama gets labeled a racist. In the next sentence, you refer to him by middle name suggesting a clear agenda on your part to manipulate the perception of the candidate as a Muslim, which he is not.
So, if you're not a racist...why are you practicing propgandinstic methods with obvious racial overtones?
2. You ask.."How does all the change get implemented without increased taxes?"
Let me ask you this.
How do we pay down the record deficit that George Bush has created if we don't raise taxes?
You say you want to be informed..I suggest you learn all about things like the deficit and it's history. Every record deficit in American history has occured under a republican president
The tired, regurgitated rhetoric about liberals/democrats raising taxes is a joke...especially in light of the overwhelming preponderance of proof that republicans are incapable of balancing a budget.
If we hadn't had 20 years of Reagan, Bush and Bush 2 spending
trillions of dollars that we don't have...we wouldn't be in the economic mess we're in now. Clinton was the only president in the last 40 years to create a budget surplus.

And folks, all of these negative comments about Jimmy Carter are unfounded. Sure, the economy tanked during his administration. but that was because of our withdrawal from Vietnam which really hurt the military industrial complex and the oil embargo. Had Ronnie R. not gutted his energy policies we would not be in the boat we are now, and probably wouldn't even be having this discussion. Remember, it was Ronnie R. that negotiated with terrorist in order to ensure his election. (Shameful!)

I know this will not make sense to you simpletons, but oil is a commodity and as such, prices are the results of decisions made by people ranging from pension fund and hedge fund managers, large and small speculators to include your neighbor or your kids soccer coach, oil executives, traders and ministers from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Our Republican President Bush does not set oil prices. Our Democratic Congress does not set oil prices. Neither can wave a magic wand and lower prices, if they could, they probably would have already.
I implore you to educate yourselves on how the economy really works before you elect a failed community organizer to fix it.

Here is a movie with a little more relevance to todays economic crisis:
http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/Movie...
National security is a threat - but many don't see the real threat which is our national debt, over $50 trillion. This problem - the overspending of our leadership at the top - has weakened our dollar and is putting this burden on generations that have yet to be born. Worse yet, the weak dollar is allowing foreign investors to buy U.S. property from right under our feet. Foreign investors such as the Saudi government and China.
Can you get your hands around this issue? Your beloved Bush has you freaked out about national security issued to divert attention from the very real and looming problem. And you have issues with paying more taxes - paying your part. Your government has written more checks with nothing to back it up. In other words it is your money and my money - future money we will eventually have to pay back in the form of TAXES.
Quit being greedy and pay your part. Where do you think this money comes from - the government spending tree?
Wake up denverone before this country ultimately belongs to a different country.

What good is paying more taxes if you don't cut spending! This is what McCain has been saying to you idiots his entire career with even more emphasis the last year that even someone like you should be willing to acknowledge.
The fact of the matter is Obama doesn't have the experience to run a lemonade stand and because you were obviously born yesterday you havn't a clue as to what the implications of that could mean to this country.
Thank God there are still just enough of us left in this country that have the aptitude to understand the difference between a FAILED community organizer and a war hero with 25 years of government experience.
I am just curious if you actually have considered what a disaster it would have been for our country had we followed Obama's and/or Hillary's advise and lost the war in Iraq? You weak suc_k Democrats have no understanding as to the implications of the US losing this war. War is ugly and freedom comes at a cost. If you don't have the stomach for it, then move to France with the rest of the women.

you are an idiot wrapped in a moron. Your pal Bush has been on a spending spree since he first opened the door to the oval office.
Where do you think the funding from this over-sold war in Iraq comes from? Yes, Bush has made a few cuts - in the form of less pay to our troops:

less money to vets:

Do you thing our national debt just goes into the ozone?
And your adamant talk of who's resume is best - are you aware that Bush ran two oil companies into the ground before he became gov of Texas? That is very evident considering if he ran a business like he leads this country it would be lost to chapter 7. Is that ok with you? You sound like a business man - can you run your business on a deficit for 7 years and survive?
