Oops
October 10th, 2008 by Evil BeetNew York State’s Rensselaer County sent out hundred of absentee ballots with “Barack Osama” on the top of the Presidential ticket.
They claim it was a typo that made it past three rounds of proof-readers.

DarkEmpress, I wonder if she knew that most Arabs in America are Christian and are considered white by the government.
Actually, I wonder if she actually understands what Arab means. I wouldn’t bet on it.
By the way, I want an FBI investigation, including lie detector tests for all involved in this fiasco.
Don’t get your panties in a twist….the American public doesn’t pick the president anyways!
To DarkEmpress….first of all, read up on Arabs. Second of all, I guarantee you that an Arab in the White House would not be good…I don’t care how many years they lived in America, that heritage runs deep…whether they ever stepped foot in MENA or not. And yes, I do know what I am talking about from first hand experience. And no, I’m not rascist….I’m voting for Obama.
Donkey Punch
“In Canada recently Conservative supporters were running around cutting the break lines of cars if they had a non-Conservative sign in the front yard.”
Okay, that’s rickdonculous! Give me the link to that news worthy fact.
And I want a Canadian link so if it’s not being reported by a Canadian news team, I would have to call that BULLSHIT!
Next thing you know you’ll be saying it’s true that Canadians live in igloos and that they don’t any other season but winter.
And I honestly don’t think that was a mistake, but I doubt it really had anything to do with McCain himself, or his actual team of whatever.
It was probably a McCain supporter working on the production of these ballots, and probably pretty high up for it to actually be printed that way.
The man is not muslim, he has respect for other religions, something people in the states need to accept. I’m tired of jesus soul savers trying to tell me where my soul is going, and I’m catholic.

@ brit
Sorry, but you completely misunderstood many of my comments. I certainly will take part of the blame…I don’t claim to be the greatest communicator.
I meant people choose a party that reflects how racist or hateful they are. If you are a bigot then chances are you are Conservative. I was calling the Conservative party the “white” party because generally that is the type that support them. Good ‘ole boys that would have supported the Confederates and slaver.
The Civil war never ended…it just got a little more polite.
typo correction: slavery (in the second to last line)
Does it also list McCain as the independent candidate too? Wtf?
@Paula maybe you should go play in traffic on the freeway!!
purplemonkeypaws, I forgot to mention Canada only has 2 seasons. Fall and Winter. :D
Actually we have winter, more winter, spring, almost summer, hockey, and hunting season.
Nothing to say about my link and the fascist behaviour of some of your Conservative friends?
By the way I am Canadian.
Obama’s two economic advisors are former Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac CEO’s who may have pulled strings to give Obama a “heads up” on the recent government bail-out plan.
You look at Obama’s economic advisers, the guys he has counted on from day one and who have raised him a ton – and I mean a ton – of money: Franklin Raines and Jim Johnson, both of them are waist to neck deep in the mortgage debacle.”
Both Raines and Johnson have served as CEO of Fannie Mae, with Raines taking over from Johnson. Both are key political and economic advisers to Obama.
“How can Obama go out with a straight face and saw it was Republicans who made this mess, when it is his key advisers who ran the agencies that made the big mess what it is?” says a Democrat House member who supported Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton. “It’s his people who are responsible for what may well be the single largest government bailout in history. And every single one of them made millions off the collapse that are lining Obama’s campaign coffers.”
Wow, should that even be allowed to be called a “typo”? Whatever, Obama haters can try all they want. Obama is still going to win.
Check out the relationship between these McCain staffers and Fannie Mae/Freddy Mac.
Mark Buse, McCain’s chief of staff, worked as a lobbyist for Freddie Mac
Rick Davis, McCain’s campaign manager, was president of a group that defended Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from regulation. His lobbying firm only recenly stopped working from Freddie Mac.
In other words, neither candidate can claim independence.
It’s all a big mess. No one can deny that.
Here is a video of a typical racist Conservative. He brought a stuffed monkey to McCain rally and had an Obama sticker on it.

i love this ballot. it’s the first time a black guy has appeared over a white guy in print since that black dude that burned himself with a crack pipe, richard pryor?, was billed over a whitey, gene wilder?, in that stupid fucking movie about them on a train. i’m voting for the black guy as he was way funnier and able to bullshit better.
ps; donkey punch
i would leave this board if you did, but since that’s not likely to happen, i guess i’ll stick around to make sure everyone knows how fucking stupid you are. i’m guessing you’re on welfare, or can’t wait to be.
we all already know obamas gonna be our president, so fucking get over it. when his minions show up at your door with their black panther armbands on and throws you on the streets, we’ll see if you’re happy whose cock you chose to suck you fucking idiot. it’s obvious you’re not losing your ass in this crash because you’ve already been on the government tit and can’t wait to suckle some more. dick.
Nice. Insulting gays, blacks and the poor all in one paragraph.
What a raging Conservative you are.
BS!!!
Typo??? Yeah right!
This is HILARIOUS
Barack HUSSEIN OSAMA.
AHAHAHA
So? I’d still vote Osama! At least he’s not as extreme and has less bodycount than any Neo-Con government the US ever has had or will have.
Thanks for posting this Beet. Im thrilled to see so many responded, because voting fraud is a serious problem in this country. If you have the choice, fill out paper ballot over automated. The companies that make the machines are major supporters of the Republican party and have left out/ mis spelled threatening competitors, etc. Beet you’re awesome!
obama the socalist is a lying bastard
