Google “free fax” and you get a ton of sites from which you can send faxes

e-mails off and away….

Way to Go GoofMom/Dad:

So glad to see some press coverage! People need to know that individual citizens can come together and make their voices heard for the common good.

I hope we see GoofsDad on TV – He should say ” We should all boycott LA Times and their advertisers, until this tape is released”. I wish I could have gone and did some rebel rousing.. How long will Goofsdad be there for ?

***** PUMA THANKS TO MAYOR JEFFERY PRANG *****

Mayor Prang is Responsible for the Palin effigy coming down.

Please send a note of thanks from PUMA: Jprang@weho.org

And thanks to TheCandyPoem for such a powerful letter!

REPOST from downstairs:

thecandypoem wrote:

Yesterday I wrote to Mayor Jeffrey Prang of West Hollywood, asking him to take down the Sarah Palin effigy hanging on a noose.

“Dear Mayor Jeffrey Prang,
As a woman, I find the effigy of Sarah Palin to be a hate speech act. My reasoning: Women all over the world are killed, maimed, and routinely burned (for example India) when certain men find them inconvenient. If Obama effigy was being hung, it would be considered hate speech, because of U.S. history. By the same token, when Palin effigy is hung, it should be considered hate speech, because of world history. The U.S. is a part of the world.

How would Palin’s children feel if they saw this scenario of their mother while going trick-or-treating? How do other children feel in West Hollywood? The message the adults are sending seems to be: It is OK to hang a woman but not a black man.

As a Mayor of a wonderful and colorful city in our country, please use your authority to end this ugliness. Nothing good will come of displays like these, just more hatred. One may not agree with Sarah Palin, but she does have the right to life and happiness.

We are sending an ugly message to the world. You, Mayor Jeffrey Prang, can end it, and people will applaud you.
Thank you for hearing me out,
Sincerely……”

Today the effigy was taken down. Mayor Prang received many emails, and used his authority to convince the pranksters this prank was too ugly.

This is his statement: “I respect that we all have the right to freedom of speech. However, with that right comes responsibility. While these residents have the legal right to the display of Sen. McCain and Governor Palin, I strong oppose political speech that references violence – real or perceived. Politics in America has become extremely polarized in recent years and we all have a responsibility to focus on our political differences in a thoughtful, and peaceful manner. I urge these residents to take down their display and find more constructive ways to express their opinion.”
Mayor Prang also responded to my email, thanking me for my “nice, and respectful note,” and said it was “a refreshing change from the vile stuff I have received today.”

We should all send Mayor Prang a note of thanks to “Mayor Jeffrey Prang”

Dances-

Email sent. I wish I could be in LA- I am one ENERGIZED PUMA today!

Well hell PUMAs – looks like things are breaking all over – just decided to answer the phone becuz the MN DFL was calling – wanted to see what they would say – the young lady on the phone gave me the spiel and then said would I be willing to call & get support for the ‘pimp’ – I told her absolutely no – never gonna happen – she says, do I have the wrong person & and I said no – I was/am a Hillary Clinton supporter and will never, ever vote for the pimp – but, but, but – their positions are almost the same & I said yes they are because he stole all her ideas – I said remember the debates – he was always ‘what she said’ – I told her that May 31 did it for me – & she asked what that was – OMG – had to give her history lesson – was only 5 months ago – then she said her mother feels same way – I said oh – is she a PUMA too & she laughed & said, I guess – said she understood she wasn’t going to change my mind – I said no – the Democratic Party decided it didn’t need me & I don’t recognize what it has become – said I was voting for McCain & Palin and that I like Palin and that she is truly a feminist and that I realized that the Dems controlled women by hanging the RoeVWade over us & that it was a bogus threat – she said well I guess I won’t change your mind and that we’re polling ahead – I told her keep thinking that & remember what I said on November 5 when you realize the pimp has lost…………….

PUMAs- we are on it!

I am calling back the Hugh Hewitt show to tell them to get their asses back here to see what we are doing.

I have done my faxs, e-mails and calls to LA Times- also copied our blog link and content to my ever growing e-mail chain- I have people working in NJ, Fl, PA and here in Az-making calls and faxing and donating to McPalin-

Let’s turn it up a notch-

sad this energy isn’t going to Hillary but for those still sad about voting GOP, think of what Will Bower said last night- we have been LIBERATED from the corruption of the DNC.

We can re-shape our party or build a new one that does more than pay lip service to women and keep them shackled for fear of their reproductive rights.

Sometimes we take the path we weren’t expecting to get where we need to go.

To quote Murphy- “WE ARE THE ONES NO ONE WAS EXPECTING”

Rock on puma pac, BBL

Prowl done!!!!!!!!! Today is a great day to be a PUMA!!!!!!
~~~~~~
Goofsmom/Goofsdad: Thank you so much for what you are doing. Be safe!!!!

Did the prowl! Had already called The Times twice yesterday and told them why I was cancelling my 20 year subscription.

Sent over $25 to Puma PAC today (cost of one month’s subscripton to the LA TIMES) to keep the fight going – we are the one’s they weren’t expecting – they thought we’d cave by now(no pun intended) – watch out on Tuesday – I can’t wait to hear the pundits explain why The One lost – think they’ll realize our votes REALLY DO COUNT!

Kevink – where are you located ? You can always do something energizing. We can give you some ideas.

I tried emailing the prowl through geemail, said addresses are invalid. I will have to email when I get home from work. I will send faxes and call from work.

prplvette – use the list on # 40 – they will work .

(((gosuef4hill)))

Thank you on the Hugh Hewitt show…

MamaPuma completed email and 1 was undeliverable so far, next on to phone calls.

OH MY GOODNESS ALL YOU ARE SO WONDERFUL.

Murphy please check your email.

Prowl done-faxed!

Thanks everyone who helped w/free fax.

Should we organize a protest for LAT parent owners?

I think the Chicago Tribune owns (or partially) LAT. That way, folks that can’t be in CA can have another outlet.

5 days left…….

Just finished my emails.

Head Up for those Puma who do not have their own fax machines can go to a free fax web site visit http://faxzero.com/
they permit you to send two free faxes a day…

Two faxes are better than none!

and regarding world net daily and newsmax, neither is known for reliable reporting by freepers. Both websites are known for sensationlism not for good,old-fashioned news-reporting or investigative journalism.

Sometimes, WND and Newsmax get it right, but not very often.

I put my very cooperative employee on the phone and fax to LA Times. She is a young Latina sooo not liking Obama now. Email already sent.

Hi DWP – I don’t have a newsletter – I’m just one of the original members of PUMAPac – joined on June 5 – forgot to mention that the chick told me “Isn’t this like cutting off your nose to spite your face?” Huh?? Said maybe but still couldn’t vote for the pimp – said I put up with Shrub for 8 years and could handle 4 yrs of McPalin……………
Used to be pretty active on the blog but mostly these days I just to the prowls and comment every once in awhile –

I continue to be amazed, humbled and thrilled by the members of our PAC – and can hardly wait to see what will happen on November 5 – will be an election judge on Tuesday – should be interesting…………..to say the least…………….

Goofsmon – you sure protesters will be there till after 3 ? Can you email me Goofsdads cell phone… fred08puma@gmail.com

On my post #82 Please don’t take it the wrong way I will be voting and I will cast my protest vote for John McCain I just thought this was rather humorous.Don’t get mad at me I am a puma through and through.

Sent email and faxes to LA Times. Am listening to Lou Dobbs radio show for Corsi interview and watching Fox tv for video of the march. Busy afternoon, but lots of fun. Thanks to all the Pumas who provide links and info on what’s happening, so we can be part of all of this.

I jsut don’t want my ballot screwed with.

I know you will go Dances…..take your camera and drive safely. Don’t mess up your job though.

If BO gets elected, it will not be a choice – you will be int he unemployment line with the rest of us.

Lou Dobbs on his radio show talking about the LA Times withholding the video and he does not agree with their decision. He says it’s ‘bizarre’ and they are not serving the public’s right to know. He points out that the paper has endorsed Obama. At the very least they should release a transcript of the video. He says will never recover from their liberal bias during this election.

Email prowl done (sorry, no fax machine here). Getting ready to start calling these suckers! I’m so proud of everyone for going there– I wish I could be there, too!!!

GAPeach Good question. It’s like the “Whitey Tape” of MO. Is it possible there is only ONE of each tape in existence?
I just called and talked to a Customer Service Rep at the LA Times. He seemed more interested in obtaining all my personal information until I pinned his ass down and told him to quit tap dancing and answer MY question.
He just kept on tap dancing and said he didn’t have access to any information and it must be something to do with the editorial or advertising department. Whereupon I asked him how much the Times pays people to act so stupid and he hung up on me.

This guy had no idea what he was getting into when he picked up the phone on your call.

Over at No Quarter I posted this:

It’s all over for the Obots. The once-predicted 16% defection of Democrats is occurring, and that is FAR more than enough to bury him in a McCain-Palin landslide. Re: the dirty tactics detailed above, here’s a telling indicator:: The AOL Straw Poll (which called the last 3 national elections right) early on had heavy blue/Dem domination of the Electoral College. Then they instituted tighter security, including AIM/AOL registration to vote, thus cutting way back on multiple votes. Since then, the whole country with the exception of DC has shown as RED.

Current EC prediction at http://tinyurl.com/AOLStrawPoll2 is McCain 535, Obama 3 .

That’s not a landslide, that’s an asteroid strike. Democrats = dinosaurs. Say Thanks to Obama on your way into the Extinct File.

Best short comment there? “O? NO!

#155 shasta2001

I just went for poll worker training in Florida. Campaigners have to stay 100 ft back from the Voting Entrance, unless they have some special agreement. But they they should have a designated area. There should be a deputy there on duty that you can ask if you have any problems.

PUMAs are the perfect storm no one was expecting….
(were we promoted from sockpuppets to the Perfect Storm?)
Drudge….
WASHINGTON — John McCain still could win.

It would take what one analyst calls a “perfect storm” of events breaking his way in the campaign’s final days, but he could come from behind, overtake Barack Obama and pull off the greatest upset in 60 years.

He’d have to squeeze out more support from independents, score higher with his “Joe the Plumber” warning about Obama’s tax and economic polices, and hope that enough undecided voters swing his way to help him sweep almost all the states that now are considered tossups.

Difficult? Yes. Impossible? No.
…… more.

We need two volunteers (at least), who are not able to be at the Los Angeles Protest, to compile a list of LATimes advertisers with contact info… phone, fax, email, etc.
MKfromLA is up to Puma ears in Puma work and has volunteered (kinda sorta), but, at until the othr projects are completed, it wouldn’t be fair for him/her to take on additional work.

Step up, PUMAS!!

We have 5 days left and we need the times to release that tape.

Dances-

Littlegreenfootballs had a link to a page called bookwormroom.com that listed LA Times advertisers (because of this very Khalidi tape issue). For some strange reason, bookwormroom is down. However, Google has a cached version. The author seems to have contacted many of the companies, and posted the results. might want to save this to Action Center before the cache is replaced.

How about a commentary on the new Obama ad protraying Palin as an airhead as being sexist?

Made calls, one more fax to go. That faxzero.com site is a big help. Thanks again for posting it.
Good luck to all our PUMAs on the street. Be safe.

http://www.sipa.columbia.edu/mei/khalidi.shtml

This is a link to Khalidi’s site. Check out the books he has authored. He is in favor of a Palestinian state, which in theory to someone who does not know much about the Middle East sounds like a way to respect a culture. But when you look into his connections with terrorist groups, it becomes a shady situation. Here he is, in academia, giving legitimacy to himself, and encouraging people to contribute to his pet projects all with the appearance of education, but what if the money has gone to terrorist groups? I haven’t found all the links yet, but this is the concern my friend raised in Bham. She believed that Khalidi had funneled some money to groups that had committed terrorist acts against Israelis. If I find the evidence for that, I will post, but for now must go to pick up my son.

Happy Prowling PUMAS!

Did the email prowl!!

I heard on tv last night that the fact that the Khalidi tape is not released is more damaging for BO than what might be on it. If you don’t know what is on you, you can imagine the worst.

I’ve been Prowling.
I’ve been checking out the Pics and video from the LAT protest.
Today is a great day to be a PUMA!

OH, and I get to see Palin again in Richmond, Va this coming Sat. night. I went to see her at the rally a few weeks back but there were so many people I actually only heard her. This time it is an evening event in a local high shchool….so I might even get some photos.

Thanks to the PUMAs who posted those web sites with pics! Haven’t seen Goofsdad in any of the pic’s yet.

Goofsdad is running to get lunch right now and will be back giving me updates in 1/2 hour or so…

Love all you PUMA’s

Any word on Berg? Wasn’t it suppose to happen a couple hours ago?

Do it!

looks like some of the latimes people are laughing from the windows. wonder how much they’ll laugh when another 150 of them (like this past week) are laid off because they can’t sell any more newspapers?? yeah, let’s laugh it up la times!!

Coutesy of Naomi Ragen
From National Review Online
From journalist Tom Gross
Thursday, October 30, 2008, 08.53 AM

Within the last hour, the first exit poll of 817 Americans in Israel, who attended U.S. election voting events in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv on Tuesdayevening to vote by absentee ballot, has been released. A startling 76 percent of those polled said that they had voted for John McCain. This contrasts sharply with pre-election polls of American Jews in the U.S., which indicate a strong preference for Obama. The exit poll findings of American voters in Israel are all the more surprising because less than one in four were registered Republicans, and 46% of registered Democrats living in Israel said they had crossed party lines to vote McCain. By contrast, the Republican crossover to Obama wasminimal – just 2%. The votes are significant as almost half of the 42,000 registered U.S.voters living in Israel come from key swing states including Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania.In the 2000 and 2004 elections, Israel had the third-largest group of American voters abroad, after Canada and Britain.

The exit poll was commissioned by Votefromisrael.org, an independent,non-partisan organization dedicated to promoting voter registration and participation amongst American citizens living in Israel.

I love that one, “Nixon released HIS tapes!”
Was thinking of the parallels of the two cases yesterday. Or how about the publishing of the Pentagon Papers? People actually risked jail for that. What does the LA Times stand to lose if the Obama/Khalidi tape is released?

Being so new here, I hate to be grim. But what if this is a set up and they do release it and there is nothing damaging or it has been edited to make Obama look good? Do you think it would push some of the undecideds over to “The Ones” side? I saw someone else pose this question on another forum and they had been here as well. Seems they posted this forums address there. Hopefully, if that doesn’t happen it will bring more exposure. What do you guys think?

Anyone else know about this?

GPG;
The short answer is that his filing is too confused and weak to succeed, I think. He mashes and conflates blog and internet postings with evidence and legal assertions etc., and makes unproven statements the basis for his demand.
When the judge rules, he’ll probably just toss the suit on the grounds of incurable confusion. Too bad.

(Remember, what you are reading on that site is the CLAIMS and PROPOSED ruling from the claimant. The judge hasn’t said word one, yet.)

The thing is the LA Times can release the tape and still protect their source at the same time. Heck, the media has been leaking classified national information for years … and NOW all of a sudden they claim to have ethics?? It’s a joke.

Shasta and Mick: Shasta call the Sec of State and the Attorney General of Florida, immediately. Call the county Registrar of Voters and definitely call the TV and Radio stations. Once where I voted, signs were all over cars in parking lot not 40 ft from polling place. I went in…did not wait in line and said outloud in front of everyone while looking at four polls people ..what was out there and that those need to be removed now. They did….

I emailed BayNews9 but I am at work tonight and can’t do too much.

Hay hay Pumas.

Woman, I love you! We have got to meet after this damn election is over. How about coffee and beignets in the Quarter sometime in the next week or so??

NOP #258

Yep.

I called, I faxed, I emailed. I can try to help with advertisers when I get home. My boss already tried to set the puter so I couldn’t do any emailing…I re-set the settings back I might be out of a job with you Dances…

Hannity just told a caller not to forget to vote next Thursday.

KEVINK….EXCELLENT!!!!!!!

Apolgies in advance for the length of this, although, to put it in perspective, it isn’t as long as four years of oslimefactor

FROM BOOKWORM ROOM:
contacting the editors at the LA Times to get them to release the video showing Obama cheerfully consorting with radical Islamists is pointless. They don’t care what you and I think. However, as he said, the advertisers and owners do (or, at least, should) care.

With that in mind, here is a list of contact information for some of the advertisers in the LA Times.* Please be civil. We don’t want to look bad. Our goal is to make the LA Times look like a failed journalistic institution that will inevitably be abandoned by thoughtful, informed (and polite) readers.

City National Bank — a commenter says that City National states that it has no ads running in the LA Times, although I found this contact page by clicking through their ad in the Times. To keep civility alive, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt.

Cars.com, and here is some executive contact info

Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers (sadly, I could only find multiple phone numbers, not an email form)

Estrella (again, only a phone number — 1.877.386.6100)

ING Direct or, better yet: ombudsman@ingdirect.com

CapitalOne (pick a department, any department, because it’s impossible to find a contact for corporate headquarters — although I’m still looking)

Windemere (again, another phone number site: 925.556.6000).

CIT (lots of phone numbers). This is the corporate fact sheet for CIT Group, which may be the umbrella organization, but I don’t guarantee that.

Air France. Here’s the corporate fact sheet, with executive email addresses, so I hope your French is up to snuff.

Kaiser Permanente (good luck figuring this one out and, since it’s a medical care provider as well as a business, you may want to approach this with caution, so that you don’t tie up resources dedicated to patient care). Here’s the umbrella Kaiser organization corporate fact sheet, with executive email addresses.

Verizon. This is probably the umbrella corporation, and there are executive contact emails here.

British Petroleum (which had a very nice website when it came to figuring out how to contact the company). Here are some executive emails too.

Levi.com (not a great contact form, since it’s geared to purchasers, not members of the public). Got it! Here’s the corporate headquarters fact sheet, with executive email addresses.

Weight Watchers (no email, but telephone contact info). Here’s the corporate fact sheet, with executive email addresses.

Netflix (again, phone numbers, since the website is geared towards advertisers, customers and the media). Here’s the corporate fact sheet, with executive email addresses.

GMC. Here’s general GM contact information (including executive emails)

Lexus (a nice contact page)

The Venetian Hotel in Vegas

Bank of America. Here’s the corporate fact sheet, with executive email addresses.

Treasure Island Hotel in Vegas

Go Hawaii (the State’s official tourism site)

Citibank (a miserable website for finding useful contact information for our purposes, but they promise at this link that “No matter what you need help with, no matter where you are, you can always reach us.” I took them at their word when I provided this link.) This is probably the correct corporate fact sheet, but there are so many “Citi” entities, I really don’t guarantee it.

Loma Linda University Medical Center

UC Berkeley Haas Business School/Columbia Business School — although I suspect that, given their known campus politics, both schools may be on board with the Times’ approach to “reporting”.

American Express customer service (and corporate info)

Southern California Chevy Dealers — who don’t have a direct contact, so here’s general GM contact information (including executive emails)

Cabo San Lucas Luxury Real Estate (snail mail and phone contact only)

Time Warner Cable — corporate fact sheet with executive email addresses

Virgin Mobile USA — corporate fact sheet with executive email addresses

Solar City

Medifast

La Quinta Inns and Suites

Also, you may want to contact the LA Times’ parent organization:

Tribune Company and some executive contact info too.

The principle involved here is an important one. Americans, who have the great blessing to live in a free state with free speech, are entitled to support radical Palestinians and fellow-travelers, so long as they’re not active terrorists. However, it would seem to me, naïve though I am, that Americans also have a right to know that their Presidential candidate is consorting with radical Palestinians and fellow-travelers. Despite (or, one could say, because of) the fact that it might not reflect well on Obama in the minds of many Americans, it is news.

Here’s the letter I’m currently sending out. Any suggestions for or improvements to this letter are welcome:

I noticed that your company advertises in the LA Times. The LA Times has admitted that it is withholding from the public a newsworthy video of Barack Obama consorting with known terrorists as well as representatives of the American Muslim community who have expressed violent hostility to Jews and to Israel. This is media malfeasance of the highest order.

Until the LA Times begins to practice journalism and not partisan politics, I will refrain from reading it, and I will refrain from doing business with companies that advertise in it.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

By the way, for those who may fear that the tape’s existence is a myth, it’s not. In April 2008, the LA Times was already writing glowing words about the get-together, and boasting about the tape’s existence: “The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.”

UPDATE: Welcome, Little Green Football readers.

________________________________
*You’ll notice a certain haphazard quality in the contact info: some links are for generic contact forms, some are for the corporation’s fact sheet, and some are for both. The problem is that it’s not always easy to figure out by following an advertising link which umbrella corporation actually matches up with the website I’m viewing (as, for example, with Capitol One or ING Direct). In those cases, it’s easier and safer to use the linked website’s own contact form. My goal has been to give you as much information as possible, without inadvertently deluging with email an entity that has a name similar to that of an LA Times advertiser.

I did my PROWL today. This place is hopping. I mailed a check for $25.00 today to PUMApac.

Has anyone seen this YouTube. It is really good about the caucus fraud and George Soros’ role in it.

Thanks for the post. Launched it out on the “email ocean”. May it travel far and FAST!

Now they are speculating that the tape was from the Hillary Clinton camp when she was still running, and now they do not want it to be released and find out it came from her.

Awesome LA Times protest.

BillieJo
Those photos are great. Looks to me like the protesters are more Republican’s with a few PUMAs mixed in???
——————————–
Nah. I think they’re probably mostly Pumas. Aren’t Pumas doing the heavy lifting for the republicans? Well, not “for” the republicans, against obama, but republicans are benefitting from out work (this one time only).

PROWL completed this morning right when I got it, hope we get coverage and lots of it.
iPotter, Thanks for posting the link!

p.s. Hi Dragonfly!!

I was told by the mac hq in Indiana, that there are protesters from the campaign at the LA Times protest. They read our blog you know!

Asian4Hillary
I sent greenfun an email, to see if she wants me to pass over the photos I took with her in the photo. I don’t think she felt comfortable with them on the blog…you know why. Will let ya know, or maybe I could block out faces a little…?

Tape Scenario

Okay, I have the tape.

I give it to the LA Times

I tell the LA Times it can not publish the tape, but they can use a part of it in transcript.

Who is the LA Times protecting – ME – I’m in the tape also!!

Oh, well, it was just a thought!………that would cause the confidentiality!!

REPOST:

Now they (On Fox) are speculating that the tape was from the Hillary Clinton camp when she was still running, and now they do not want it to be released and find out it came from her.

L.A. Times prowl done. I will send fax this afternoon or early tomorrow morning.

Also, I read that a judge is going to rule in Ohio regarding BO’s eligibility to be on that ballot tomorrow by noon.

Finally, heard from more Democratic friends who were formerly supporting BO (and voted for him in the primaries) that they have decided to vote for McCain. Yeah! They woke up just in time.

Best,
Lara08

I am still at work but had to tell you all my young co workers who I thought were not very politically oriented were just commenting on how they turned on the TV last night and were completely creeped out to find BO on all channels. Like a voice from central authority or something. They are going to the library to drop off their ballots on the way home tonight.

MiddleAgeFemale,
THey are _always_ trying to blame our Hillary for everything, aren’t they?
And besides, who even cares if that tape came from her campaign (which I doubt), she’s done waay more than the “average losing candidate” EVER does for the Party nominee, Cripes!
Have a great day, MiddleAgeFemale.

BillieJo – dont know if they are all Repubs, but volunteers from the mac campaign. Could be just like us, Pumas who are making calls/canvassing…..

Sexism, part… oh whatever part it is.

1gypsy4mc
I don’t see it that way. I see it this way…

-There is a tape, ‘Person A” gives it to the LA Times so they will report on something on the tape. (Why do they want anything reported on at all if they don’t want to be identified…doesn’t make sense.)

-LA Times cherry picks the materials and puts on what they want in text, mentioning they have the tape. (If they don’t want to be asked to show the tape, why mention they even have it?)

—If ‘Person A’ didn’t want LA Times to tell who they are, then they wouldn’t trust the LA Times to have the tape in the first place. (Do they know that someone at the LA Times would be willing to go to jail to keep from divulging their sources?)

gypsy
here is the article
http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la-na-obamamideast10apr10,0,5826085.story

BillieJo are you in the police department?? Hmmmmmmm, I see what you’re saying also………so do you think this is all a lie to make FOX and everyone else to look stupid? Another nibble at nothing?

So is this a cover-up for something bigger and more explosive sitting in the wings? Something to keep us busy??

Love your scenario also!

prplvette#85: Ok..so..Hi, everybody at McCain Headquarters in Indiana! Stop reading the blog and go out and get out the vote for MCCain…(Just a little PUMA humor all you hard working souls)..but do….get out there and hit the streets! like prplvette!!!!! You will have a lot to keep up with in her!

Hello PUMA’s! I’m home, but a bit “worse for the wear”. I’m tired (of course) from the aneasthesia and the surgery. I have my nose totally pugged up and a “drip pad” taped underneath is (makes me wonder if this would be good for those wo had terrible colds and would like to hang a pail under thair noses). I have to keep changing the drip pad because the plug inside my nose is already full and the drip pad keeps filling up with blood etc. My nose doesn’t hurt, but my throat sure does! It’s bad enough that I have to breathe through my mouth, but my throat is like raw hamburger from sticking the tube down it. I’m supposed to take out the plug in my nose tomorrow afternoon.

One comment about the BO signs. I’ve heard that people have to pay for them, and that is the excuse I’m hearing as to why they don’t have them in front. Obama has them pay for EVERYTHING- even signs… and is even charging the media a huge amount to put up equipment in his “coronoation” set for tuesday. Makes you wonder why, doesn’t it? I mean the election would then be OVER right?

fox just had someone on, talking about the new sexist ad. are we writing letters about that? last night i posted info i found from april ‘07 where obama spoke about violence against women when he called for don imus’ firing, and statements he made about changing the way our culture views it. now he is contradicting himself. we should bring up those old tapes and statements.

Hi Pumas -

My Florida friend just sent me this cute poem via email:

‘Twas the night before elections
And all through the town
Tempers were flaring
Emotions all up and down!

I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of political crap.

When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out of my window
Saw Obama and his boys

They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!

He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink

He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!

‘On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi’
He screamed at the pairs!

They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn’t stand up and fight!

So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!

LOL

Hispanic4Hillary-

I saw your post below about over 200 of your Dem family members voting for McCain. Impressive!!!

I am wondering, out of those 200 who crossed over, were any of them able to convince friends to cross?

If they were, we could be looking at something exponential here.

Would you please give our thanks to your family? I’d love to see a group photo of them waving “Dems for Mccain/Palin” signs!

The following is my comment (if you want to cut and paste some or all):

http://www.universalstudios.com/contact_form.php?email_id=23

Dear Universal Studios:

Congratulations on the October 31, 2008 release of your new film “The Changeling”. I have been looking forward to seeing the film, based on the true story of the LAPD’s cover-up of a missing child.

Your advertising with the LA Times has changed all of that. I will be protesting your new film, due to the LA Times refusal to release the
Obama/Khalida.

I, along with thousand of others will be spreading the word throughout the internet to boycott your film.

You see, Universal, we are living through a political nightmare not unlike your film, the Changeling. For the past year, we, American Citizens, have had a front-row seat to political party and media cover-ups about the candidate, Barack Obama. This cover-up has included, among other things, voter fraud, illegal campaign fund-raising, information about his radical, extremist affiliations, and failure to fully disclose his qualifications for political office.

This fraud upon the American People would not have been be possible without the help of media organizations such as the LA Times, suppressing information detrimental to the candidate, most recently and importantly the videotape of Obama’s praise of Rashid Khalidi.

Very truly yours,
XXXXXXXX

Loved the LA Times protest photos. My favorite sign was ‘Journalism R.I.P 2008′.

Hey, I have to let you guys and gals know this. I know a lot of moderate Republicans and they are glad to have PUMA around. Not just because you aren’t supporting Obama but because you do things a little differently. The fact that you are still registered Democrats (most of you) brings an extra flare to the discussion. It’s great. I was watching the L.A. Times protest and it was mostly PUMA Democrats out there. It was great. Democrats are quick to protest on things that they feel are unfair and Republicans aren’t. So, all of you are helping the Republicans find their backbone again by bringing a little of that Democrat Rebelliousness. Keep it up!

We’re upstairs – I think!!

That was nice to hear, that we at least are giving the Repubs courage to stand up. We are a wild group, that’s for sure…yet, mostly get along pretty well for having so many Alpha females

just emailed. way to go!!!

BillieJo, Republicans are delighted to have PUMAs around. I know from Republicans that I’ve talked to that they have a huge amount of respect for all of the PUMAs on this site. I remember it was a PUMA lady who said that she has been embraced with open arms. Who would have ever thought that Democrats would be protesting WITH Republicans instead of against them? Lol. This election has made strange bedfellows and I, for one, think that it’s great. It gives the party diversity and it gives PUMAs diversity. We can finally listen to one another because we got rid of the partisans on both sides. There’ll still be arguments over social issues and taxes and other stuff, but I believe that Republicans and PUMA Democrats have one thing for each other that wasn’t there before, respect. And that’s a good thing.

Murphy,
Possible to get some of those pictures from Mere Rhetoric? Would you know who I could ask?
Thanks

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate and admire those who protested at LA Times, as well as those citizens who protested in West Hollywood over that awful Palin effigy.

Despite all the nastiness of this election, I am grateful for PUMAs and all the good people out there.

MORE GOOD NEWS FROM JEWISHJOURNAL.COM

October 30, 2008 | 3:18 pm
Americans in Israel voting big for McCain
Early election results of Americans living in Israel show a big advantage for John McCain. I don’t expect these numbers, courtesy of DK, to hold for American Jews living at home—the latest poll gave Obama 74 percent of those voters and many Israel-firsters were already voting for McCain. But exit poll data is thus far surprising:

A startling 76 percent of those polled said that they had voted for John McCain. This contrasts sharply with pre-election polls of American Jews in the U.S., which indicate a strong preference for Obama.

The exit poll findings of American voters in Israel are all the more surprising because less than one in four were registered Republicans, and 46% of registered Democrats living in Israel said they had crossed party lines to vote McCain. By contrast, the Republican crossover to Obama was minimal – just 2%.

The votes are significant as almost half of the 42,000 registered U.S. voters living in Israel come from key swing states including Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania

DWP, City National Bank, I meant, not CitiBank.

then we’ll be rid of them, and can go back to fighting their disasterous policies.

I am in favor of a little more love. Maybe we should try to get along and work across the isle and get something done for the good of the country. Party against Party is like the super bowl. People want to win at any cost even to give up their country. Remember what George Washington said in his farewell address about the party system being not good for the country and leading to foreign takeover of the country. Imagine that. He saw O boo boo coming as a result of our 2 party system getting too confrontational. We must learn to work together and without party lines or we will be taken over by foreign country.

KarenWI 10.30.08 at 5:53 pm 311

Good to see you back and all went well! Get better soon!

I heard today, on FOX (it is the only news station I watch) that Obama has the majority of the American Jewish vote. How can this be? Someone, please tell me how Jewish Americans could posssibly vote for Obama knowing that he has a numerous anti-Israel affiliations. Please explain!

Here is what Obama thinks about the coal industry. He wants to bankrupt it.
