Howard Stern: why is Harlem is voting for Obama?
This will probably be the only time that Howard Stern makes it onto the pages of MommyLife, but as a follow-up to my post on the importance of an informed electorate - and to illustrate the magnitude of the ignorance driving the election of our first Messiah, I am passing on this clip my son Josh sent me.
Howard's cohort Sal went out to the streets of Harlem to find out why people were voting for Obama:

I'm convinced that this is part of the huge problem that people don't really know much about Obama, his past, and what his policies really mean. I knew nothing about him but then a few things I read in the news made me dig deeper. Wow - I had no idea! Most people only go by what they see on the popular news outlets and since nothing negative is ever reported about Obama, how would anyone know unless you do some research. Too many are blindly following this guy and if he gets in it will not only affect conservatives but will eventually affect the liberals and uninformed masses.
May God have mercy...

Wow! That is really sad! It's too bad the media doesn't report fairly. If these people are going to vote, they should really be up to date and know what they are voting for!

Wow. That's all I can say.

I put this same thing up on my site a few days ago. It is scary that these are the people that are going to be voting for our future. There needs to be a way were people have to take a basic test before they can vote just to show they know who they are voting for. I know that is extremely unrealistic, but we can dream.

Oh my gosh!! That freaked me out! Pardon my frank words.....I am picturing a bunch of Lemmings following, following until they all fall off the edge! Or do I see them running, running after the Pied Piper? It's horrifying to imagine that these people truly cannot think for themselves. I sure hope this bunch doesn't show up on election day.
