More Foolishness from the Values Voter Summit

Foolishness from the Values Voter Summit

Yes, it's a year amount of crazy foolishness wrapped up in an summit.

Check out some crazy on tap:
Rick Santorum


Rep. Michele Bachmann


Sen. Jim Inhofe

We believe in Morals, Values, Misleading and Lying

"The McCain campaign said Gov. Palin opposed the bridge to nowhere, but now we know she supported it," said Obama spokesman Tommy Vietor in a statement. "They said she didn't seek earmarks, but now we know she hired a lobbyist to get millions in pork for her town and her state. They said she visited Iraq, but today we learned that she only stopped at the border. Americans are starting to wonder, is there anything the McCain campaign isn't lying about?"

This quote should be Obama's campaign message. And it should be a message for the country as well. This Straight Talk Express is a straight lie, McCain has gone over to the darkside and people for some reason, are glad about it.

Who are you people? Who are you to applaud this mess of lies and deceit. McCain, what has happen to you? After being smeared yourself, you have to be aware of your actions and this crap you are pulling. Are you willing to cheat us and yourself to win this election?

The supporters are really making me laugh. They pride themselves on morals and values, but support McCain's actions that are riddled with lies and smears. I ask again, who are you people?

This is the same foolishness that tricked them for 8 years and these idiots are still jumping in line. I want these folks to look up the definitions of morals, values, lie, fairness, deceit, mislead, myopic, and honestly. Do that, and then ask yourselves; can I vote for McCain?

Want Some Racism with your Waffles?

So much for a quiet weekend. At the Values Voters Summit, racist foolishness made a guest appearance. It seems that some folks just don't get it.

Men from Tennessee traveled to the Values Voter Summit to sell yellow boxes of waffle mix that portray a caricature of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama with a Muslim turban and says "Point box toward Mecca for tastier waffles." The cover of the box portrays a caricature of Obama's face next to waffles, which three protesters from American Atheists found offensive.

Eric Herrman from American Atheists said the box was racist because it conjures up images of Aunt Jemima, the woman portrayed on a syrup bottle.

"Let's say we sold a pig lipstick product, we probably have to leave for the same reason," Herrman said as he handed out literature outside the Hilton Hotel. "A caribou doll would be considered so sexist."

Herrman two others from the organization said they sent reporters down to look at the waffle mix. When they found out that the vendors were asked to leave, they high fived each other.

Spokesman for Family Research Council J.P. Duffy said that those in the organization did not look closely at the box until someone brought it up. Duffy said the executive director thinks the box is racist and if Joe Biden were portrayed, it would have been fine.

"He thought it was just about Obama waffling on the issues. We had no idea until looking at it closely what was on the box," Duffy said. "It's just that this could be taken offensively."

Bob DeMoss, who created the product and said the boxes have been called racist before, packed up his boxes this afternoon.

"What’s wrong with Aunt Jemima? I always looked at that as a symbol of quality. Betty Crocker or Emeril’s are made up characters. They don't get it." he said. "It's unfortunate; they have their freedom of speech and it'd be nice if we had ours."

Honestly, we have to ask ourselves why is it that gatherings like these family values and moral summits foster mess like this? It makes me wonder about the values they represent and the people who attend them. It's like our values meant to be distorted, vicious, and backwards. I'm starting to believe that good ole family values are dead.
