Quotable Quote: Susan Supports Barack, whatever he stands for!
Posted by americana83 on February 25, 2008
I think this quote says volumes not only about Barack Obama’s core supporters, but also about his campaign.
Susan Sarandon: Well, I’m going to back Obama. But I hope – I think that he, as a symbol, has really excited people, and he’s definitely confusing to everyone who really hates America for hating Muslims because a name like Obama and a Black man, they’re probably going to go “Oh, wait a minute – what?” It’s kind of like when you’re out on the line for freedom to have an abortion and you’re incredibly pregnant. They just can’t quite figure it out.
So I think he definitely has convinced people that he stands for change and for hope, and I can’t wait to see what he stands for.

He is being used as a symbol, I guess to tout that the Democratic party is tolerant despite including Robert Byrd (former KKK member) and despite its repeated dragging down of the historic civil rights movement by merging it with the homosexual and abortion movement (or the freedom to murder babies late term that Susan gushes about so giddily.

All I can say is you typify many fundamentalist christian (note spelling) mouthpieces in you ignorance.
You arent worth debating issues with because, quite frankly, you are not intellectually qualified to engage in a discussion at the level that I understand these issues.
As proof of your low caliber intellect I will leave you with a tip:
check the spelling on Christian, dumb*ss, pretty sure its not spelled crisian. You’d think even a backwards
bigot like you would get that right. Bwaahaahhahaha.

Thank you for pointing out that for me. It was hard to see up there. But in the same spirit of good will, I offer these tips.
“christian” should be capitalized.
“arent should be spelled aren’t”
I would be more than happy to debate issues with you, however I fear that you would merely parrot catch phrases and point out the inevitable typo as absolute proof that you are right and I am wrong. This is an excellent debating tactic whereby one discredits his or her opponent without discrediting their logic or refuting their evidence.
This debate tactic is typical of those in the past who advocated violent overthrow of the capitalist system and the subsequent murder of those who held to a theistic world view. As far as bigotry, you should look to your pals on the left of the spectrum. They are responsible for such progressive movements as the Cultural Revolution and the great purge in former Soviet Russia.
Thanks for your comment, comrade.
