OMG, are you listening to the letter Mike Malloy is reading from one of his listeners.... |
|
..... and her debate with a woman who said Barack Obama isn't eligible to run because his father is Kenyan, and that he's not a Christian, and that the Constitution forbids non-Christians from seeking the presidency. I don't know whether to :spray: or :cry:. We live in a land of militant anti-rationalism and anti-intellectualism. :dunce: :dunce: :dunce:

What did the woman say to her? Or did she just shake her head in disbelief?

6. Which part of Article VI don't they understand? |
|
No religious test will ever be imposed to hold office or a public trust in the United States.
I'm too lazy to look it up, but if that's not an exact quote, it's a very close paraphrase.

aren't going to vote for Obama because he is half Irish. That has to be the reason.

12. One of the other telephone bank people at the Obama HQ |
|
had a person just like that on the phone the other day. His rant was the Obama was not American, was Muslim and a non-Christian could not be President, etc. She, as a law school student, tried to reason with him. He ended up screaming over the phone everyone in the room could hear him before he hung up on her. When I coded that sheet later, she had made a note next to his name - "Crazy Guy." :crazy:
I got a woman who said that Obama was not an American. I asked her how that could be since Obama was born in Hawaii adn she sputtered. Then I asked her how McCain could be an American when his birth certificate was from a Panamanian hospital. She freaked out and hung up on me. :dunce:
On the other hand, the best calls are the older people. Tonight I talked to a 75 year old Russian American woman who was upset that she could not work in the campaign since she was in an automobile accident; a 72 year old woman who sounded very frail but who apologized for not being able to help; a Republican gentleman in his 60s who is voting for a Democrat for the first time in his life but who cannot stomach more of the current Republican playbook; and the numerous ladies who are turning out to help us register new voters.
And in our HQ a good 50-60% of the volunteers are white women over 50 - so much for the M$M claim that older white women are turning out for McCain in Florida. They are not in this part of Florida!
