Seems to me, to handle all that she’d have to be pretty Organised. - But she’s belittles those who admit they have organised. Figure that out. Flip Flop?

interlink008 asked:


I watched VP Palin’s speech last night, and she attacked Obama by saying community organizers do not have any real responsbilities. Isn’t she attacking her base as well by making such a comment? Not that she would lose any evangelical voters as a result. I think more evangelicals would vote for her because she goes to church, then women who would vote for her because she is a woman. Already I can tell that this election will become an election of ideologies (again), and not the issues. I am just curious if her comment will become an issue because a lot of community organizers, especially in small towns like mine, come from churches, schools, or the YMCA; not the government. And isn’t the PTA a community organization itself? If that’s correct then she attacked herself.

That Marvelous Ape asked:


From his speech last night:

“If you find faults with our country, make it a better one. If you’re disappointed with the mistakes of government, join its ranks and work to correct them. Enlist in our armed forces. Become a teacher. Enter the ministry. Run for public office. Feed a hungry child. Teach an illiterate adult to read. Comfort the afflicted. Defend the rights of the oppressed. Our country will be the better, and you will be the happier. Because nothing brings greater happiness in life than to serve a cause greater than yourself.”

This is what community organizers do. First, Sarah Palin makes fun of community organizers, now does McCain wants us to go out an be community organizers?

♥ Diamond Doll ♥ asked:


Does that mean that they really are afraid of change?

What’s wrong with being a Community Organizer? Historically Community Organizers like Jane Addams, Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Caddy Stanton, and Martin Luther King Jr. ushered in change and made a difference. What does it say about the powers that be in the Republican party if they hold disdain for Community Organizers?

No Name: Palin’s remark implying that C.O.’s had no responsibility was flat out bashing. If she merely intended to say that C.O. was not sufficient experience, then she should have said so. But insufficient experience and no responsibilities are two very different things.
To Reagan 08: My point is, she didn’t specifically target Obama, if she wanted to talk about his “failings” then she should have. Instead she attacked Community Organizers as a whole, which seemed blustery and pointless. By the way, McCain has never been mayor of anything either, and I don’t hold that against him.
To Reagan ‘08: Thank you for the list. But I didn’t say McCain didn’t have experience. I simply said that he’s never been mayor of anything. Mayor is obviously not the prerequisite that it’s being touted as if McCain has made it to the presidential nomination.

Lady Wildcat asked:


It seems that every time Obama’s personal ties, past actions, or character are questioned, he complains about “smears” and “personal attacks.”

Does someone need to remind BHO that this is the big-time? He’s running for President of the United States — not president of the local “community organizer” board!

If he’s going to whine every time he’s criticized, how is he going to stand up to guys like Ahmadenijad and Kim Jong-Il and Raul Castro?

Ohio_Voter asked:


Is it because Limbaugh always described the job “community organizer” as “community aggitator”?

This may have hurt Obama’s feelings and now Obama is trying to hurt Limbaugh’s ratings.

Don’t think a U.S. President should focus on more important things than a private citizen’s radio show?

bob asked:


Tonight’s news reported some U of Illinois papers released last week about how Ayers paid Obama to distribution $50 million to ACORN and Chicago groups who indoctrinated children to defy government authority? The said the papers show a close financial relationship for the purpose of spreading radical anti-authority ideals in Obama’s community organizer drives. What are those papers and why did the Univ have them, but not release them till now?

u can’t stop me!! asked:


Which candidate would be fully capable of picking up from where Bush is leaving off? Whoever wins has their work really cut out for them and has to be ready to really roll up his sleeves and move on, so who do you think can follow Bushs presidency, a wise old man with hefty political experience or a younger, much less experienced, community organizer with planned changes. Who can really handle the big job?
