And she could very well be our next first “lady”! :eek:
Policy positions aside. This guy and his wife scare the hell out of me. He is in way over his head and doesn’t have the common sense to grasp how deep he has stepped in it. We don’t need for our next President to spend the his first four years in office just to figure out how our government really works. Only in America can you go from a State Senator to your parties candidate for President in less than four years. Sandwiched in between that is a rather undistinguished 3 year US Senate career. How anyone could view this guy as the cure to our countries ills is beyond me and rational thought.
As well as being frightening, I find this comment to be extremely revealing. The more I hear about Obama, the more concerned I am for what has become a variety of reasons. Lot’s of bad and highly questionable things coming out. Now his wife states that she has never been proud of the United States “as an adult”. Of course, now that her husband has a chance at the presidency, she is finally proud of us. Holy shit, folks, that’s flat out disturbing whether Republican or democrat. All that this country has done and sacrificed to create stability and freedom in the world for decades and this b**ch has clearly just been a clueless, resentful hater like so many others in her party. I hope McCain jumps all over that and the Che flag when the time is right.
All this really makes me angry, to see an individual of such questionable character running so late in the race for President of this country at this incredibly pivotal time. I hope it has the same effect on many who would consider voting for that individual. Just look at the crap that somehow rises to the top of that garbage pile party. Incredible. :mad:
Interesting. I read yesterday that some guy has a YouTube video claiming he did drugs and homosexual sex with Hussein. I say interesting because nothing bad about Hussein ever seems to make the mainstream media.
There are so many things about Obama that scare me to death:
- He fails to render honors to the flag during the National Anthem
- His church states that they are loyal to Africa, not the US
- His pastor and church are backers and friends of Louis Farrakan
- He has very little national level experience
- He is an enemy of the Second Amendment despite his 180 degree “word shift” recently
- He is a product of a childhood Muslim madrassa education
- He is a successful Chicago politician
All very true. But why does America embrace this man? 
For the exact same reason young girls date guys their fathers hate.
And with the same long-term result, I’d bet. 
As the saying goes, “be careful what you ask for…you just may get it” (America).
Here is Barack’s press release this morning explaining what his campaign is doing about his wife’s comments and the plagiarized speech.
Mrs. Obama – one of the smartest and classiest political spouses I’ve seen in decades – said a dumb thing. Plus, she said it poorly.
And anyone who has even a shred of intelligent perspective knows exactly what she meant.
But that doesn’t matter, of course. Her gaffe will combine her husband’s recent self-inflicted wound to sidetrack the campaign. It remains to be seen how forgiving Sen. Obama’s latest converts will be.
I’m not a supporter of Sen. Obama’s candidacy, but it strikes me that the apparent lack of depth (for lack of a better term) of his devotees’ passion pales in comparison to the obvious shallowness of the vitriol leveled against him.
I mean, if someone spouted comparablly baseless Internet garbage about, say, a Colt…:rolleyes:…
How could I have imagined you would be one to say that? :rolleyes:
Yes, you are correct. Anyone with a shred of intelligence does know what she meant. I know I do.
Number six is the scariest of all.
Wait, you forgot some…
- He won’t wear an American flag because it’s “political”, yet sadly he is an American Politican.
- He/his staff had the Che flag in his Houston office.
- His stated desire to meet with the leaders of Iran and Cuba, likely to apologize for Bush and kiss ass.
Would you care to enlighten those of us unfortunate enough to lack a shred of intelligent perspective as to what she meant by her statement?
Like they say, “When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.”
I remain one citizen patriot who’s proud to be working out of a full toolbox.
Out.
Man, you are funny. :o
Every time you get backed into a corner you disappear. But that’s ok, your entitled I suppose.
Kind of reminds me of a teenager ringing someones doorbell at night then running away. 
Well, it was a perfectly legitimate and serious question…but that’s ok.
I’ll keep swinging my trusty ol’ hammer in the dark I suppose…
I am hearing now that obama has won Wisconsin. Amazingly, I am somehow feeling for Hillary Clinton. :eek:
Still, as bad as I feel right now, I am almost at the point where I am confident there is so much negative leaking out regarding him that a Republican (McCain) can shoot this phony down and win the election. I pray, anyhow.
I don’t know KintlaLake, part of me wants to think she just stumbled over her words, but another part of me wonders if it wasn’t a Freudian slip. Actually saying what she thought, though unintentionally. She seems to have a chip on her shoulder, if you ask me.
A lot of African-Americans feel slighted by their country, and I wonder if this isn’t what she meant. Not to say I blame people who endured institutional racism for being bitter about it, but in her case, she’s led a pretty priviledged life. She’s Ivy league educated, and really doesn’t have a beef as to having to overcome a whole lot compared to African-Americans of previous generations.
This might not have been what she meant, either. To be honest, we don’t know what she meant because she hasn’t bothered to clarify it. An no, I don’t care what their hired guns say she meant, I’d like to hear her clarify what she meant.
Honestly, I’d like to see a centrist Black man win the presidency. I think a centrist African-American in the white house could do a lot to heal the racial scars that still haunt our nation. Especially someone who is self made and doesn’t have to bow at the altar of Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton, and the other self appointed “leaders” of the black community.
I don’t think Obama is that man, he’s too far to the left and knows next to nothing about foreign policy.
Please understand I’m not trying to sound racist or anything like that, and I hope it doesn’t sound that way. I just think the right African American President could be a great example and could encourage young black kids that they can achieve. Right now, many of them are being told by their parents and leaders that they can’t achieve.
Heck I wouldn’t mind seeing a woman President either. I have a daughter and want her to know that the sky is the limit for her. I just don’t want Hillary to be that woman.
Nor sound economic policy…
