Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Monday, October 13, 2008

A 106-year-old American nun living in a convent in Rome may be the oldest person to vote in the 2008 US Presidential election. Sister Cecilia Gaudette, who last voted for President Eisenhower in 1952, has registered to vote and says she will vote for Barack Obama.

Bet She is dry cobwebby and crusty.

Larry

better than your fat, lardy and busty.

Oh Great the trool speaks. What a useless pultard.

Larry

Naw, just pointed you back to your own mirror Lar, after you were poking fun at a 106 year old lady.

Thank God we aren't related. That would suck big time.

Larry

Just senile.

At least she's voting for the better candidate.

At least she has the better candidate TO vote for.
All they have is McNasty/failin'

Actually she just checked the color of her Depends that morning, and went with it.

McCain's younger cousin is voting for Obama?

TED, that was actually pretty funny.

No doubt she is as senile as a turnip.

Who gives a fuck who is voting for Obama. He's not going to make any change for the better. It will be business as usual for the fat cats, and all of you dupes that play the false left, right paradigm game are morons.

Will this campaign ever end?

It goes on, and on, and on, and on....

Neither candidate excites me.

I don't expect that much of a change with either one.

Am I just plain fed up? Yes. I don't even care anymore.

I just saw a piece on CBS News about her. Hasn't voted since Eisenhower! Wow.

CALIFCHRIS,

Read on another thread you're watching FOX News? Wow.

STEP AWAY FROM YOUR TV! I REPEAT, STEP AWAY FROM YOUR TV!

One of the nuns John's rightwing terrorist buddies didn't kill, I guess....

It used to be that Catholics nearly always voted for Democrats and that liberalism was a semi-Christian political outlook. When abortion and homoselxuality became Democratic foundational issues, Catholics strayed. Now, it seems, the GOPs far right-wing's failing foreign policy and domestic economic policies positions have been driving Catholics and other middle-of-the-road Christians away.

Why does the media insist on "profiling" individuals who are voting for Obama, forcing his allegedly universal appeal down everyone's throats? The latest polls show Obama leading by somewhere between 5-8 points, which probably means about 50 Million people will vote for McCain. Based on articles I've seen in the last few months, however, it is my understanding that the only candidate with old, young, party-switching, and unique supporters is Obama, and that none of the 50,000,000 people voting for McCain are interesting, or even exist. Why?

I'm sure you're right but still not as senile as you

I'm sure she voted for FDR after she saw him address the nation on TV when the market crashed in 1929.

Does she want a medal or something?

Liberal Bitch!

Love Nanc

About now McCain's wondering the same thing

Shocking. A woman whose profession has her wearing a half black and half white outfit is voting for Obama?

Anyone who is considering voting for McCain is seriously deranged. The GOP continues to try to divide the country on wedge issues such as abortion. However, the scope and depths of the problems facing the country (i.e. financial meltdown, losing 2 wars, looming energy shortage, bankruptcy and starvation) means that such wedge issues don't have as much effect. Naturally, there's some morons who don't know their ass from a hole in the ground and insist on voting for McCain. There was a story in Pittsburgh papers that indicated McCain held a lead in one rural PA county because the people there are racist and believe Obama is a Muslin.

At least some people, such as this nun, have the courage to say that they are casting a proper vote for a clearly superior candidate.

I already voted last week. Mailed in my absentee ballot.

Jeff - the Danish one - is probably right that no American president is going to change the system or depose our corporate rulers. But it's not all black and white, Jeffy. A President O'Bama will make a start toward stopping the tide of corruption, and maybe start us on the road back. The very long road back. In some very small ways, you will see the genesis of A Change You Can Believe In. herm

this is no big deal....just think of the thousands and thousands of people that will be voting several times for obama if acorn is unchecked

hell the dallas cowboys starters all live in vegas and will be voting there along with that SEVEN YEAR old girl I heard on the radio this morning.......

BLT is actually invoking the specter of voter fraud by a candidate heading for a landslide. This from a guy whose people feloniously stole the presidencies in 2000 and 2004. herm

BLT has people? I thought that was illegal. Stealing elections again HERM? brick brick brick brick brick brick - sorry my computer does not speak brick very well.

of course you say that about 00 and 04 and IF obama is elected it will be rascists and hatefull to even TALK ABOUT acorn...

see article calling mccain same as wallace

There's only a handful of tools that McCain can use to win the election.

1.) Fear

If you can make the population afraid of Obama, maybe they'll vote for McCain instead. Maybe try invoking the notion that he's less experienced than McCain... or maybe point out that he's black. (I can see it now-- [Spooky Voice] Would you let your teenage daughter date a black man? If you wouldn't trust your daughter with a black man, how can you trust the whole country with him?)

2.) Hatred

If you can make the population hate Obama, maybe they'll vote for McCain instead. Hint that maybe he's a secret Muslim operative -- they'll think of 9-11 and vote for McCain instead. Lie about his tax plan and make everyone think that he's going to steal your money and they'll hate him too. (This commerical is also easy to make-- [Spooky Voice] Black people steal. Barack Obama wants to raise taxes and steal all your money. You'd better not vote for him.)

3.) Outright Theft

Tactics #1 and #2 failed in 2000 and 2004, so they just plain stole the election. If it looks like the other side might prevail, just sue them. Or maybe get your Supreme Court pals to issue an injunction that orders the states to vote for you.

Good for you grandma nun.

she is doing it out of habit.

"I'm sure she voted for FDR after she saw him address the nation on TV when the market crashed in 1929."

I don't think that there was a lot of TV happening in 1929.

FDR did not take office until 1933.

"of course you say that about 00 and 04 and IF obama is elected it will be rascists and hatefull to even TALK ABOUT acorn..."

that and idiotic. Read something besides right wing crap and get back to us on ACORN dodo brain.

Someone has an obsession with race. ^^^

"I don't think that there was a lot of TV happening in 1929.

Tell that to joe biden. I hear you can find him at "Katie's Restaurant."

There was a story in Pittsburgh papers that indicated McCain held a lead in one rural PA county because the people there are racist and believe Obama is a Muslin.

So you're saying they believe Obama is a cheap tan fabric used to test new patterns out of before using expensive cloth?

Obama is a Muslin.

"So you're saying they believe Obama is a cheap tan fabric used to test new patterns out of before using expensive cloth?"

They're canvassing right now to find out.

I guess some of the catholics believe in abortion.

Drum hit!

She lost her marbles.

"I guess some of the catholics believe in abortion."

Maybe they just don't believe in bombing Iran.

"I guess some of the catholics believe in abortion."

Actually they believe in reproductive rights at almost the same rate as normal people, 68% to 69%, I seem to recall. Frances Kisling heads one of the largest such groups, Catholics For Choice. herm

Well it's pretty certain that Obama wil be elected, then we will see what happens.

At that age and the pope still hold some kind of cult mind meld over her.

Well why wouldn't a Nun vote for "The Messiah"?

After all, isn't that what Catholics believe in?

She probably saw Jesus being crucified and now thinks he has risen, only it took a lot more than three days for sure!
