Anti-Obama text messages from an anonymous source hit hundreds of voters’ phones Tuesday night.

Politico reports one message read, “Voting for Obama means voting for same-sex marriage.” Others include “Obama stole $716 Billion in Medicare. We cant [sic] trust Obama to protect our seniors,” “Obama is using your tax dollars to fund Planned Parenthood and abortions. Is that right?” and “VP Biden mocks a fallen Navy Seal during memorial. Our military deserves better.”

Many of the recipients tweeted screenshots of their messages. Jim Spellman, a reporter for CNN, tweeted, “A new low for these political campaigns: text messages? Please give us a break!”

I don’t really consider facts as spam, but, whatever. When I voted the other day I had 4 Obama supporters chanting O-ba-ma not 5 feet away from me, against election rules.

I wish there was a button you could press after you have voted to turn all the political nonsense off. That way i no longer have to hear anything from either side.

Voted 8:00 Saturday morning for President Obama. It only took 20 minutes. There were mostly black people waiting to vote that morning…good to see that many of us are taking advantage of early voting. I voted early in the 2008 election too, so I may just vote early from now on because it’s so convenient.
