Racist, Sexist or Stupid!
 

After applying for a permit to peacefully assembly and  hand out flyers on Columbus Day 10/13 at 2:30 in opposition to Obama raising funds at PSU. We recieved the following scathing remarks along with our permit. email me for info  BJ@Free-US-Now.com

Judge for yourself what this candidate has brought to the table and how this kind of vitriol and rancor bodes for uniting the country.  How all of a sudden just asking for a Constitutional Right warrants this kind of reaction from those to who we apply to for a simple permit to assemble.

Out of the blue this council member decided that we were either racist or sexist or just plain stupid because we were not voting for Obama! Imagine that! I dare not tell you what I think of her right now - so tell me whaddayathink?

“Yes Ms. Matthews you do have a permit.  However, just let me say
as a woman “of certain age” as your colleague put it, that I find your
political stance to be unbelievably short sighted at best, and perhaps
bigoted at worst.

There is no doubt in my mind that there is no way that any actual
Democrat (that includes Senator Clinton) would want John McCain,
or the largely untested Governor Palin to follow the overtly anti-education
and patently incompetent Bush administration.  I vote for women based
on their abilities.  Sarah Palin gets elected, and then leaves behind huge
budget deficits — just like George Bush.  Getting elected is not enough
– doing a good job is far more important.

In a national election when the person I back is beaten in the primary I
suck it up and work with the winner.  Our country has a complex system,
but it can work.  I vote for the party platform; when I don’t accept that
platform I vote for another party.  In a local or regional election I vote for
the individual who most matches my beliefs regardless of party.  There
is no way that McCain/Palin in any way match those of Hillary Clinton.

So, either you chose women based on their reproductive organs only;
or you won’t vote for a non-white no matter his abilities and potential.
Either is a travesty.  Susan B. Anthony would tell you Suffrage is not a
license to vote for incompetence; but rather to use your brain, not your
ovaries to make a decision.  She worked hard to prove our intelligence,
you fight to prove her wrong.  How sad.”
