Grandparents, don't be blackmailed!

Hey, Mary. You're obviously NOT Jewish, because you have NO sense of humor...which makes me wonder why you invoke Hitler and "the price we paid for freedom". That's basically a non sequitur. Silverman's support for Obama is real, but she does not literally mean that grandchildren should withhold their visits. In fact, she's urging them to go visit their grandparents to talk with them about Obama. There have been lots of whisper and email campaigns in the Jewish community about Obama's religion and alleged non-support for Israel, all of which were BOGUS. So, honey, don't get yourself in a lather. And maybe next time just confine yourself to the sort of comedy you understand, like Carrot Top.

midwesterntransplant, you write like a pro-PLO jew. From Skokie I suppose.

Oh, come ON, pt, that's about ridiculous. MWT is dead on, and there's no pro-PLO in the comment. You keep on spreading conservative lies. I'm really surprised, you didn't mention re-distribution somewhere......

GaC, mwt is already in the tank and doesn't need to be bought.

Dear Grandma, please vote for Obama because I just cannot stand to see McCain's disgusting dentures in a glass by the bedside in the White House, as I was traumatized by yours as a child. I still have nightmares, and McCain is so mean I could imagine those teeth jumping out of the glass and becoming like a modern day horror film. Oh, nevermind, we've been living in one the last 8 years!

What is a Sarah Silverman? If not for this article, I may have never heard of this. Little kids are attracted to Senator Obama. When he wiggles those big old ears, little kids just squeal in delight. My grand kids remember him from the Garbage Pail Kids show.

Good point, 14PUTT. That's the same level on which Obama appeals to most of his supporters. I guess emotion over thought is easier for Dems.

A "pro-PLO" Jew? From Skokie? Stereotype much, PT? Sheesh, the level of discourse in these comments is discouraging. I've never seen so many uninformed, intolerant, mean-spirited, provincial, racist, anti-Semitic idiots gathered in one place, outside of a McCain-Palin rally, of course.

Shouldn't you be out stealing Obama signs with the rest of your kind? (I know of more than a dozen that have been stolen or mangled beyond recognition in W. Augusta alone, mine included...but hey, that's OK. It just causes supporters to buy more signs, thus benefiting the campaign.)

Oh, and thanks, GAcopperhead. You're a beacon in the murk.

MWT says GAC is a Be A Con. Sounds about right.

It was obvious a joke. Sarah Silverman is a comedian. Its not like kids would know who their grandparents really voted for either way.

The key word is comedian. I cannot believe the Chronicle even printed this.

Vote Geezer/Dingbat, nana, and you get pee-pee-ca-ca.

I'm with j2says.. I can't believe this was even printed.

Sarah Silverman is quite funny at times, but if she's the one directing people to vote Obama and any indication of Obama supporters. We are all in a world of hurt is he gets elected. I find it so humorous that all these actors are standing up and confessing their support for Obama, the one group that is most sepparated from reality of any population within this country.

sara silverman is ******* Matt Damon.

Yes, but look who's ******* Ben Affleck!

Flash, last night I watched Johnny Mac trying to explain to Larry King how wonderful little Sarah is. So for those who have heard the lies about Johnnie getting mad, blowing his top and giving little Sarah the cold shoulder on the bus, you can just rest easy. Because Johnny Mac reminded larry of how great little Sarah was about 4 different times. I heard after the show he had a dental appointment because he had honestly gritted his teeth down so bad, his dentures had to be replaced.

The AC is getting desperate for letters to print.

I almost forgot, I think Johnny Mac must have broken his jaw or something. I have noticed that when he refers to the little darling, he is speaking through clenched teeth as if his jaws are wired shut. Anybody know whats going on?

If you want to find out how McCain really "selected" Caribou Barbie, read the recent New Yorker. He had about zip to do with choosing her. It was Bill Kristol, Fred Barnes, and right-wing loons like that.

As for Augusta, Georgia, having more than its share of McCain supporters, all I can say is, "Duh!" What do you expect? It is Georgia, right?

midwesterntransplant: I see nothing humorous about Silverman's remarks; if this is the level of your sense of humor, it is pretty low. Neither are we "uninformed, intolerant, mean-spirited, provincial, racist, anti-Semitic idiots," as you suggest. Rather, it is you who possess these attributes when you indicate that anyone who has a different point of view should be branded with a scarlett letter. Your remarks tell me that you are a narrow-minded bigot and a believer in your self-idealized "supremacy."

Look for the positives, people. The positives.

Enjoy your weekend NeoCons & the Augusta Chronicle. Next weekend will be much different.

And Bush is no lame duck either. He is a wooden decoy on the mantle in Crawford, TX.

I had to laugh at PT's comment. "Pro-PLO jew"??? News flash, PT, the PLO is totally against Jews.
