Chicago thug urges cultists to get thuggish, too; offers housing/hotel incentives
He has unleashed his lawyers on TV stations airing ads he doesn’t want the public to see and GOP donors he doesn’t want participating in the political process.
He has tried to shut down investigative journalists and radio talk show hosts.
He’s got a team of plumbers playing hardball with those who dare challenge his Holy Name.
He’s got a mob of “Action Wire” goons shouting down critics in every public space. (See Jim Treacher.)
And now, he’s urging all of his followers to get down, dirty, and “in your face:”
Barack Obama sharpened his attacks on John McCain and mocked the Republican’s recent calls for reform in two stops in Nevada on Wednesday after days of listening to nervous supporters fret about the Democrat’s chances of taking the White House.
…The feistier, more sarcastic tone came as worried Democrats urged Obama to get tougher and show more passion. Obama has tried to assure donors and voters that he’s been schooled by Chicago politics.
“I’m skinny but I’m tough,” he says…
…In Elko, Obama tried to anticipate his critics and called on the crowd of about 1,500 to sharpen their elbows, too.
“I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face,” he said.
Yep, a bunch of hysterical Obama cultists and ACORN riff-raff knocking on your door to shout Kossack talking points in your faces, accuse you of racism, call you unpatriotic for not bowing down and forking over more taxes to keep the Mother Ship afloat, and maybe threaten to hack your e-mail, too.
That’ll be persuasive.
***
By the way, the press report notes that there was a “crowd of about 1,500″ at that Nevada rally. Looks like Obama imported some of them from California and offered housing/hotel incentives for them to get “face-to-face.” A reader forwarded the Obama campaign e-mail she received yesterday before Obama’s Nevada swing:
There are less than 50 days to go before November 4th, and Californians have a major role to play as we gear up for Election Day.
Supporters like you have stepped up at office openings and events across the state to declare your support for Barack and take an active role in the campaign. But to win this November, we must continue building our organization across California and keep bringing folks into our grassroots movement — not just here, but all over the country.
That’s why we need your help. As an Obama supporter in California, you can make a huge impact by traveling to Nevada to talk with voters about why Barack Obama and Joe Biden will bring the change we need.
We have a real shot to win in our neighbor state Nevada, but the race is extremely close and you could make the difference.
We are organizing a special trip for Californians travel to Nevada and grow our movement there. Will you take a short trip to Nevada to make a big difference for Barack?
John McCain has made it clear that he intends to continue George W. Bush’s failed policies. Just yesterday, he repeated his belief that “the fundamentals of our economy are strong.”
Here in California, we know that’s not the case. It shows how out of touch McCain is from what’s going on in the lives of ordinary Americans.
The past eight years have been devastating for families in Nevada, California, and across the country, and it’s time for us to say: Enough.
That’s why we’re going to be counting on supporters like you to take a leadership role and travel to Nevada, a crucial battleground, to spread Barack’s message of change.
Face-to-face contact with undecided voters is the single most effective way to grow this movement. No experience is required, and we’ll help you make the trip as easily as possible with either housing in Nevada or discounted group rates at an area hotel.
Sign up for a Drive for Change in Nevada and make a short trip to make a big difference:

Here’s my address… not really. But I wish they would show up at my front door.
And he is supposedly going to be the one who brings the world together?
They came to my front door, I told them I was for McCain/Palin and they left.
If they try to get in your face, hand them a breath mint.
Oh the glorious freedom that awaits us in Obamas new america. We are free to agree with Obama or get screamed at till we do……..
These bleeding hearts don’t have the cojones to get in anyone’s face. If they try to get into yours, all you have to do is get into theirs and they’ll scamper away like a scared rabbit.
Airbrush,
Much like most of his policies… he didn’t say how he planned on uniting the world. One word: Thuggery.
Are they wearing brown shirts over those sharpened elbows?
30 pcs: they already showed up at my door. I blogged about the experience here:
It’s like shooting fish in a bucket.
I don’t know how much more of this I can take. I feel the need for a strong anti-depressant prescription.
“No socialist system can be established without a political police.”
~Winston Churchill
I have a red belt in jujitsu, a 165 lb. dog and a handgun carry permit. I really, really do not advise using this tactic on me.
Where I live, unknown “riff-raff” knocking on a person’s door have the potential of being shot. As one judge in our area tells it, he handled a case once where a “man was given a sex change by shotgun, courtesy of a homeowner finding the guy in his home, and the jury refused to convict the homeowner.”
Only 1500 showed up?
Must have been a lousy band opening for him.
Do you suppose this would be his model for international diplomacy?
If he had a disagreement with Russia would he “argue with them and get in their face”?
What – no more pedestal for The One?
I thought only us boorish conservative Republicans wallowed in the political mud? But the best part is, for all his charisma and mystique, all it took to pull Obama off his perch was a petite mother of five named Sarah Palin…make that Vice President Sarah Palin.
Go Palin! We got’em on the run!
What we are seeing are the tactics of Hitler and his brown shirts.
I am up to a 1% belief that Obama is, like you read in complex political intrigue/spy novels, the culmination of some long-term plan by some diabolical enenmy of the U.S. to become President.
mojoe, in elko, 1500 would be about 75% of the population in a heavily GOP area. Don’t buy the numbers.
Meanwhile…..
Today, McCain & Palin will appear together in Green Bay.
The phone lines for tickets – two days ago – were overloaded and caused a shut-down.
Estimates this morning put the potential crowd for their visit ( based on expected ticket-registration ) at perhaps 10,000.
I have a BAR semi-auto with plenty of sand bags.
Oh please…come to my door…PLEASE!!!
Hey 30…did you get any reply from the RNC about cutting off donations? My inbox has not been tickled by a response to my missive.
ok not 75% but 1500 would be a huge number for elko.
If one of these people come to my home and ‘get in my face’ as who I am voting for, I will tell them it none of their business and get off my property.

This line from the Treacher link describes the “transformative” campaigning style of the newly fallen to Earth Obama to the “T.”
Hmmm…we might live in the same neighborhood.
Rule 1. Anybody worth shooting is worth shooting several times.
Rule 2. There’s nothing a cop hates worse than conflicting stories.
Hey sandyb,
If the annointed one gets in, you’ll have to wait 6 months to see a primary care doctor, 2 more months to see a psychiatrist and then at least “the state” (your fellow comrades) will pay for your prescription and visits.

DESPERADO…why don’t you come to your senses…..on second hand, keep it going………the train is off the rails!!
You kind of did what a friendly old guy in my (Catholic) church used to do. His widow said that when Jehovahs came to the door, he’d talk their ear off about anything and everything until they couldn’t take anymore. He’d ask them to sit and have a cup of tea and just go on and on. Commendable work if you’ve got the time and patience.
Well, at least we don’t have to worry about Jehovahs voting for Odumbo. My daughter’s best friends with one and she says they don’t vote because it’s considered worldly, and their concern is the next world.
Yawn… Can we get on with some debates already?
If they actually get in my face I think lysol would be more effective and appropriate for teh Obamessiah’s
vermindeciples. Mace, move effective yet, if they insist on getting too close.Note to Obama supporters:
I strongly suggest that you remain a respectable distance from my face when talking about your Messiah to me.

He read his prepared text that someone else wrote very well.
Pepper.Spray.
Reminds me of the time I had a Jevohas witness and crew come to my door. I advised them that they might be better off spending their time helping those who are handicapped, or poor and could use an extra pair of hands. Or to visit those in nursing homes who have no one to visit them….They exited fairly quickly after that! I was caring for two ill family members at the time and working and busy as heck so I was plenty mad !
At least the Mormon boys will give you a hand around the house.
Someone HAS to go to Camp Obama and report back. I can’t go because I’m allergic to stupidity and pandering, but some one tougher than me has to be out there that could bluff their way through and report back. Pretty please?
Mary Jane???? She signed that letter???
Cann-a-bis.
Last week snobama had 25 people show up.
Not 2500, just 25. I wish I could remember where…
As for the door crashers, maybe we should just start calling the police, expose the hate posse.
That might get in the news.
B. HUSSEIN telling his “operatives” to get in their face??? No surprise there… CHICAGO POLITICS at it’s best… “VOTE EARLY, AND VOTE OFTEN”. I would love to have one show up at my door, haven’t had a lot of DOOR fun since I kept a JEHOVAH busy for about 2 hours once… Haven’t had a DOOR KNOCKER since…
We moved to this area just about four years ago. We came for a visit to look at houses in October, so we could tell by the yard signs what neighborhoods to rule out.
I highly recommend this method to anyone.
Great, now when I see one of those blue “Obama 08″ button wearers coming at me I’ll need to cross the street to avoid a confrontation.
Am I the only one that keeps seeing an image of Bolsheviks at the gate here?

Obama goons can get in my face if they want to. Should be fun…for me, not them.
Well, not really. By every measure — Gallup, Diageo/Hotline, CBS/NYT, Quinnipiac — Obama leads McCain (Rasmussen shows them in a dead heat). Further, over the last two to four days, Obama has consistently, day by day, gained points and ground on McCain/Palin. As you might expect in light of those figures, McCain/Palin’s favorability ratings have — again, by every measure I’ve seen, and you’re welcome to visit each of the pollsters’ sites to see for yourself — been on a downward slide.
I got the same one except for me to travel to colorado.
Doesn’t, like, driving to Nevada, like, cause the Earth to melt?
I saw this letter posted all over headstones at the graveyards where I live. I have also learned that they are all voting Democrat.
Do you all know how far Elko is from California? That’s a decidedly “ungreen” thing to do. And a big waste of time.
Indicates one dimensional thinking.
Seriously, the local mormons will help out anyone in need, just call the local biship and ask. He even has funds to help out with rent/mortgage etc.
nyk, polls go up and down. I try not to get freaked out by daily polls. As more people hear the truth about obama, his support will fall.
By any means necessary.
You know, what with the foul and obnoxious treatment of Governor Palin, the gross and condescending remarks some moonbats have been posting regarding Gianna Jessen and Trig Palin (which I have had the misfortune to read… see comments on Politico and Hot Air) and the idiotic tax proposals of Bidumb and other libtards (to name just a few), I have been wanting to hit something for weeks.
One of these nimrods showing up at my front door could be inadvertently providing a public service. At the very least, it would make me feel much better.
I have a McCain/Palin sign in my front yard, an American flag on the flagpole, and a Son in Service banner on my front door.
Bring it, biotches.
I totally agree. But with McCain having only been able to best Obama — throughout this entire campaign — for a period which immediately followed the RNC, there’s a decent chance that the post-convention dust has settled and these figures are more accurate, long-term, than the ephemeral numbers we saw recently.
Unfortunately, I don’t think they are going to be campaiging here in Georgia. But is case some do come to my door I’ve got a whole list of items I’d like to discuss with the. I’m pretty sure I can convince them to vote Republican, or at least not vote, if I can get their attention. Sort of like de-programming Moonies.
It’s a far drive from me, and I’m near the border in CA — Reno, NV is about 45 miles from me. From there, it’s at least an 8 hour drive to Elko. NO commercial airports are close by. You either land in Reno, NV and drive the 8 hours, or you can land in SLC, and drive the 6 hours.
It’s in the middle of nowhere.
Sheesh! If I did that here, my house would be firebombed.
I will tell you what! If any liberal gets in my face screaming someone better call the cops because they will be in the hospital….I will defend myself against idiots who scream in my face!
There once was a Governor named Palin
Who set all her opponents to wailin’
Barack once was on top
But he’s seen his polls drop
And now he’s resorted to flailin’.
The get-in-your-face drive must’ve influenced my brainwashed brother (lived in SF too long) to call my mom last night and berate her for not bowing to The One.
Thanks for causing @#$# in my family, Barry.
Can it come as any surprise that a campaign based mostly on form over substance thinks it can win with a pugnacious display of chutzpah?
After he’d won the donkey nomination, Hopenchange based his campaign on the theme of, “Scrapbook memories of my journey to the White House.” The look and feel gave an impression that the election was over before it began; everything he did was meant to provide photo-op moments to document his triumph.
His European “victory tour” was the moment when his hubris became too obvious to ignore. The “Speech at Obamopolis” was when he finally jumped the shark.
Now that he’s got a real fight on his hands, Hopenchange’s theme has shifted to, “I am my attitude.” Still substance-free, he’s relying on his supporters — including but not limited to the media arm of the donkey party — to simply bluster and bully a path for him with canned talking points and vitriol.
This “image is everything” campaign is why ultimately the theme song of Hopenchange’s run for the presidency will ultimately be Bob Dylan’s “Rolling Stone.” The final lyrics of that tune are indicative of where Hopenchange finds himself in the closing stretch to November:
Good luck on that! But I agree. If they come to my door, they want be gaining a vote they’ll be losing 1 or 3.
laughable.
I didn’t know nyk was an expert on ecomometric anaylsis.
I thought she was a rocket scientist! Wow…she’s very diversified.
karnold #8, I just read your blog re the above. Right on!!
If one were so inclined this would be the perfect opportunity to volunteer for this duty and then claim an Obama staffer assaulted them sexually or verbally…
IF one were so inclined…not a suggestion…
yeh, some women are smart.
Thanks for sharing. You handled that nicely.
Nope, not a peep. ::Crickets::
I thought inciting a riot was illegal.
My preferred method when someone asks me if (A) I’m registered to vote; or (B) do I intend to vote for so-and-so, is just to tell them, “Now, I just reckon that aint any of your bidness, now, is it?” in my best redneck accent. Seems to work, too. They generally ignore me after that.
In Texas you can defend yourself in your home with deadly force. With any luck one will force their way into my house.
and some even want to take care of their babies.
Don’t count on it.
Well, the situation is obviously more complex than that. Here’s the thing:
1) the Republicans have been in power for 8 years, they have a hugely unpopular President and a war that (no matter how well it’s going now) is unpopular.
2) the economic news, especially in the last week, has been horrible.
3) the national media has been going full bore trying to get Obama elected, both covering for him in his (plentiful) areas of weakness and aggressively going after his opponents using all means at their disposal, fair and foul.
With all that in his favor, Obama has been leading McCain by (at most) the margin of error. A recent poll showed Obama leading in New York State by a mere 5 points.
It’s a little too early for the Republicans to start picking out drapes for the Oval Office, but I think characterizing the Obama campaign as “on the run” is pretty well accurate.
Typical Republican:
http://taxprof.typepad.com/taxprof_blog/2008/09/wapo-white-hous.html
this is why i call him obamitler. his tactics remind me of the the Nazi and Bolsheviks. if obama is elected, i think his plans are to be the last elected president. he sounds so much like a dictator my skin crawls.
i would love to have one of his goons come to my door. i’ve been known to get a little passionate about my disgust for all things liberal. Or so my family tells me..
cpodug, that’s a right nice accent you got there. I helps also to spit and then give them the crazy eye until they slink away. Never give up the opportunity to scare a lib if you have the chance I always say.
I thought of Hugo Chavez…remember when he tried to get the populace to “vote” in his favor to give him more power?
Why not just send Michelle out on the trail;Send her all across the country to get in our faces;She’s a pro and the lead disciple for Rev. Wright;Oh wait, I forgot that her and Oprah are the poster girls for true racists in this country; They have Rev. Wright to thank for that.
Liberals really don’t know much about conservatives, do they? Seems like every action they are taking in this race, brings us closer together and we don’t like to be forced into anything.
Any Obama thugs coming to my door in my neighborhood are probably felons and can’t vote anyway – casing the joint. Ummm, wonder if any have outstanding warrants……….
And wait until we see BO stammer through the debates.
Mary Jane and his royaldopeyness have been smoking to much mary jane…
It’s Killin em and
I Love it!!!
McCain/Palin 08′
Image: door knockers gettin an azs whoopin in my neck of the woods.
When did Geraldo become an adviser to team Obama?
Democrats did the same thing in 2004 – thousands of Mass. Dems drove a short distance north and clogged the side of route 101 with bodies and Kerry/Edwards signs. Route 101 runs east and west of Nashua, just 5 miles north of the NH/MA border.
The drive from Calif. to Elko is a MUCH LONGER ONE – so much for the environment, greenhouse gasses, fuel conservation, green policy, etc.
But Nevada has a special welcome for Obama’s horde of 1500 – brothels are legal in Elko.
“Driving directions to Elko, NV
421 mi – about 6 hours 7 mins
Sacramento, CA”
In addition, the Dems are usually ahead by double digits this time of year…doesn’t guarantee a win, obviously. The fact that BHO is barely keeping afloat should speak volumes in November. Looking forward to it.
you’re get in my face & yell at me?
i attended Harmony Church, so you’ll be in for a religious experience that you’ll not soon forget.
I’m not. Hence the fact that I agreed with you on the fluctuations in polling results. Merely pointing out what the numbers look like now — across the board — and that they jibe more with what we’ve consistently seen throughout this race — save for during the (widely predicted) post-convention rise in McCain/Palin’s numbers.
Someone should share that tidbit with Obama, immediately… as it stands currently it looks as if panic has set in.
Obama man, you are too late, I’ve already taken some and ‘educated’ them away from you.
That’s all it takes, a few photos of Bill Ayers standing on the American Flag, a few lines on what you’re going to do with taxes. I always tell them “With ANY Politician you canNOT just listen to what they say, you must look at how they’ve voted. Then, Obama loses every time.”
The pollsters have consistantly under counted the Conservative polls anywhere from 2-4 points prior to the elections. If this holds true, the left will be cryin’ again about how Republicans “stole da vote!” …
I say this in all seriousness. I would love to debate things with any Obama supporter. I can honestly say I cannot find any Obama supporter that can maintain a coherent train of thought to have a conversation with. By the third exchange I will be called an idiot, a moron, or a racist. Conversation over.
It is a sad commentary on the electorate.
I think what they meant was:
Not to mention the bradley effect…
Flyoverman…
All you have to do is ask an Odumbo supporter one question:
What has Obama done in the senate?
I bet they can’t name one thing.
:-p
Just break Down who Obama really is Beyond his Marxist/Anti American absorption…..
“San Fransico Values + Chicago Thug Politics + Old School Washington Elite Prodogy”.
Sounds like a Bad Combo For America.
