Hamas spokesman: Obama, McCain both 'terrible' candidates

It's that whole democratic thing. It is haram to good Muslims to even think about voting. If Mohammed wanted Muslims to vote, he would have invented democracy. So that settles it.

A Hamas spokesman described both Republican candidate John McCain and Democratic candidate Barack Obama as "terrible."

I agree with the adjective used by Hamas, though for completely different reasons.

Maybe Hamas is pissed that neither McCain nor Obama support Hamas over Fatah? ;-)

McCain Supporters - We All Have a Little William Wallace in Us

A Hamas spokesman described both Republican candidate John McCain and Democratic candidate Barack Obama as "terrible."

for once, I can agree with Hamas

as one observer put it, nearly two months ago:
"The one great comfort of this campaign is that we know the outcome: Whoever wins will turn out to be the worst president in American history."

for myself, I think I'd say: "one of the five worst"; we've had some real stinkers over the years.

still, some are more terrible than others; and I think McCain is the less terrible.

"don't annoy the bikers
it's a islam free zone"

It's unfortunate that we are forced to elect the candidate that is the least terrible...

Hamas hedging their bets now.

They want to keep Obama viable for '12 should he lose.

However given that TUCC and by extension Wright are big supporters of Hamas it stands to reason Obama is the Hamas candidate of choice.

He's at best apathetic towards western civilization and its people. He has no use for its holidays or customs like Christmas or birthday parties or respecting the flag or military.

Add in his statement that he'll stand with Muslims against his country when the time comes tells me he's the ideal choice for Muslims to support.

What a fantastic link, thanks!

I agree, but one is much more terrible than the other.

A significant difference does exist between the two. The strange part is that he probably does not fully understand how much of a better position he would be in if a certain one beat the other. He may be playing it safe, but I doubt it.

It makes no difference to him ideologically speaking as to which becomes President of the U.S. He is at war against either.

But one of them, along with his supporters, doesn't know that.

For the first time ever in any election anywhere, I'm glad 'my' side lost. Thanks, John Syed McCain for letting us down particularly the last 4 years - it's been a pleasure to pay you back. Particularly funny to see Campaign Finance Reform - your pet issue in the 90's - work against you. Hoist. own. petard.

Let's hope we can capture the GOP in the next 2 years. In the meantime, can we hope McCain to retire, and stop sabotaging GOP policies and positions in Congress?

Incidentally, if the Dems win an effective 60 seats supermajority in the Senate, it'll be interesting to see whether the Dem half of the gang of 14 prevents the 'nuclear option' the next time the Republicans want a closed debate on judges. You think they'll oblige?

Infidel Pride,
It took me longer, but I have come down on the same side as you - I'm so glad McCain lost.
Divided government gives both parties an excuse for failure. Republicans didn't have that excuse in 2006. Democrats won't have it in 2010 or 2012.

Part of me wants to see Obama put all his plans into motion and see which Democrats complain the most. In a masochistic kind of way, I'm looking forward to seeing how Republicans respond. Will they roll over or will they take a stand?
Democrats today are talking about how we have one president and it's important for all Americans to unite behind him. I don't recall such calls for unity after either the 2000 or 2004 elections.
On a side note, I wish the national GOP would let go of the abortion issue. I hear way too many callers talking about the many unborn who have been murdered. Why aren't they focusing on the living? We have so many issues that affect all people. Why is abortion always front and center?

What makes a conservative? Open borders? Big business? Taxing only the rich isn't something we should be proud of. All Americans need to take some responsibility for this country. Even if it's just a pittance, taxes should be a fact of life for all Americans.

One of the major points I believed in and made was that if McCain was elected amidst a Dem majority, Republicans would get blamed for decisions of a Democrat Congress that McCain chose to compromise with. If we are going to have Liberal policies anyway - regardless of which party, there's no reason to support Republicans for office. Not to mention that Conservatives who disagreed with specific Liberal policies of McCain would be homeless, and the Dems would win such situations by default.

I too am all for Obama doing what Bush failed to do in 2005 and 2006, and see how the population responds. After all, the problem the GOP had was 'moderate' saboteurs like McCain, Gramm, Voinovich, and a whole host of Senators who chose to sleep with the Dems and come up with compromise policies to torpedo Bush policies - with results like we couldn't even have John Bolton confirmed. So while it is tragic that Conservatives got wiped out in 2006 and 2008, I am glad that it also took out Liberal Republicans with it. That's not going to be a problem Obama will have, since most of the Democrat congresspeople are Liberals, and so Obama should get what he wants at least for the first 2 years. Let's then see whether 2010 will be a repeat of 1994 or 2002.

It's time for a shake-up throughout the GOP - lose the McCains, the Schwarzennegers, the Huckabees, et al and get a new generation of leaders both at state and national levels. That way, the GOP could be in a position to do in 2012 what the Dems did last night.

It's usual partisanship on the part of the Left leaning media that Republicans are supposed to unite behind Democrats, but Democrats aren't expected to unite behind Republicans. As for abortion, I think it's high time the GOP recognizes that this issue has attained its equilibrium and move on to other things. On social issues, there are things to be concerned about - promotion of secular Atheism in schools, sex education, Islamic advocacy in public, et al. Aside from those, there are a lot of other things to be conservative on - regulations, taxes, size and scope of government, aggressiveness against Islam worldwide (including domestically), judges, et al.
