QED

Take all permutations of 5,6,7 (3! = 6):
567
576
657
675
756

Sum them (3996), divide by total number: 3996/6=666
QED

Barack Hussein Obama was born in 1961=1998-37=666×3-666/(6+6+6).

Revelations 13:18=(6+7) : (6+7+5): “If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666.”
QED

That’s so ridiculous as to be fly-over. Just how is the use of Paris and Brittany to illustrate that he’s merely a “celeb” racist???? They are the quintessential “celebs.”

The only person injecting race into this campaign so far is Obama.

THAT’S what you picked out of my post to respond to first? Bimbos? Hmmm.

Oops.

He does not need her permission. She’s a public figure, buy her own choice. It comes with the territory.

If that wasn’t a racist ploy, then there simply is no such thing for anybody.

That’s it?! That’s what all the whining’s about?

Good God; I thought there was actually something remotely controversial, remotely cutting edge, the way you all are talking. It’s beyond nothing. But it makes a good point – for all Obama’s celeb status, for all the media fawning, there’s very little “there” there.

THIS is what’s so controversial? I knew the media was the left-wing noise machine, but really . . .

Whether it’s a good ad or not (and I haven’t seen it; I may have to click over and watch) Brittany and Paris made their own bed. They’ll have to lie in it.

its like the hard right wingers telling the moderates to get over it. The moderates should not.

WE MADE THIS PARTY..the Clintons, and all of us who became democrats because of the Clintons. No, I will not let one person snub the people who made the best policies in the recent history that infuriated the republicans.

Adn now Obama is getting the exact same treatment. Good.

“Prediction: McCain is Forced to Publicly Apologize to Britney and Paris for His Callous Mockery of the Two

“During his defeat of the Clinton Machine in the primary, Barack Obama proved he could take a punch.

“The Britney/Paris ad doesn’t even count as a solid left jab in this bout. If anything it looks like one of those wild left hooks opponents like Sonny Liston, Joe Frazier and George Foreman threw at Muhammad Ali in desperate attempts to knock the Champ out with one vicious blow. The problem was Ali merely moved his head back an inch or two, the blow missed by that much and his opponents were often left wide open to counter punches. Barack doesn’t even have to move his head for this powder-puff of an attack ad.

“The aspect that most troubles me about the ad is the fact that McCain has shown that he is willing to drench two innocent bystanders (Britney and Paris) in his filthy political vomit. Barack’s in the ring, he’s fair game. The two women whom McCain essentially humiliated are not.

“Regardless of what one may think of the twosome, neither of whom has made any political comments that I am aware of, they are human beings, American citizens, apolitical civilians.

“The callous vulgarity McCain has displayed by airing this ad, the complete indifference regarding how Paris and Britney–real people!-may feel being used as exemplars of Nothingness, that disregard for these two innocent bystanders (in the political realm) exposes what McCain, his campaign organization leadership and Republicans, in general are.

“I loathe frivolous lawsuits, but it sure would be sweet if Brit and Paris could launch a defamation suit against the holier-than-thou McCain campaign.

“{Late News: It turns out both Paris’ father, Rick, and her grandfather, Barron Hilton, are McCain contributors. Reports are that Barron Hilton personally has contacted the McCain campaign to express his outrage at their use and mockery of his grand-daughter in the ad. This one ain’t over.]”

TO HOLLYWOOD it smacked of desperation.

That’s why the reaction to a new John McCain ad attempting to portray Barack Obama as a kind of mindless celebrity — likening him to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears — drew collective yawns and shrugs of irritation from politically active members of the entertainment industry.

“I didn’t think McCain could look silly,” mused Norman Lear. “But that ad diminishes him and makes him look silly.”

Just for a start, industry types say the ad is wrong: In the Hollywood lexicon, Obama is not a celebrity. He’s a rock star. (Note to McCain strategists: That’s the difference between Jessica Simpson and Bono.)

Then there’s the small inconvenience that Paris’ parents, Rick and Kathleen Hilton, are supporters of McCain’s Republican presidential bid. According to federal campaign records, they gave the maximum $4,600.

Ya know what? I’m tired of that.

The only candidate I ever REALLY supported was Al Gore in 2000.

Outside that, I have always held my nose and voted for the Democrat candidate. (Except when I was young and stupid and voted for Reagan) I’m not doing that anymore. And in Kansas, I can take that action (voting for McKinney, Clinton, or Nader) or I can take no action at all (don’t bother voting) and not affect the outcome one bit.

“His policies are similar to Clintons. Quit pouting.”

Shut up and sing? No.

And when did Senator Clinton ever call the Republican party the party of ideas as Obama did?

When did Senator Clinton ever sound like a Republican, blaming people for their problems, as Obama does?

What if I tell you I am actually suspicious that Obama might out con John McCain?

He certainly is making noises in that direction.

If Senator Clinton is holding his hand, I MIGHT consider voting for Obama. Otherwise no deal.

This candidate has got more kid glove treatment than any politician I have ever seen.

LIbDave? Obama has thrown all the party under the bus. The gays, the Hillary supporters. He cannot win this election without us. MILLIONS of us. He’s snubbing us bigtime and it won’t happen.

Paul. so stupid I’m not even going to bother.

To preted that race is not an issue in this race is ridiculous. And you are dishonest to even say that it isn’t an issue.

Look at the people on this board tryign to tie him into ghetto gang culture or muslim. Your own people ruin your argument and then you have the audacity to say that HE is playing the race card. He is facing it head on instead of ignoring the elephant in the room.

So when Obama supported anti-gang legislation when he was a state senator that was not a move against gangs? Do you even know what you are talking about? As usual you just make sh!t up.

“In 1988, for instance, Obama was one of only three state senators to oppose a law declaring it to be a Class A misdemeanor for released convicts to knowingly have contact with a member of a street gang if a condition of his release is refraining from such contact.

But Obama’s entire record paints a more complex picture on this issue. In 1997, he voted for a bill, to make it a Class-3 felony for peace or correction officers to commit a gang-related act (except in cases of undercover investigations.) In 1999, he voted to allow the court to require a minor to undergo a medical (or other) procedure to have a gang tattoo removed — as a condition of probation. In 2003, he voted to allow courts to prohibit a gang defendant from associating with gang members as a condition of bail or release from detention. In 2004 he voted for a bill to create a new felony offense for gang recruitment on school property.”

When has Obama ever spoken against the glorification of gangs?

When has Obama spoken against the “Stop Snitching” hip hop culture?

Of course, every one of the supposed causal links is asinine, but knock yerself out.

What’s good for the goose . . .
