Venturing into unchartered territory now.......
THE PIT BULLS ARE OUT IN FULL FORCE ON BOTH SIDES AND EVERYONE IS GETTING ANXIOUS NOW ABOUT THE OUTCOME OF THE ELECTION. BUT IF I WERE A BETTING PERSON OR EVEN SOMEONE WHO HAD TO GUESS I WOULD SAY SENATOR OBAMA IS GOING TO WIN IN BY A NICE MARGIN COME THIS NOVEMBER.
WHEN THE HOUSE DIDN'T PASS THAT FIRST VOTE ON BUDGET RESCUE PLAN [ BAILOUT] AS IT HAS NOW BEEN TERMED BY SOME, I LOST MY JOB... AGAIN! SAME COMPANY, IT HURT BECAUSE I FILED A CHAPTER 7 TRYING TO GET OUT OF DEBT NOW I NEED A JOB TO PAY RENT, RE-ESTABLISH MY CREDIT ON UNEMPLOYMENT IS NOT EASY. SO I'M REALLY TUNED INTO WHAT BOTH CANDIDATES ECONOMIC PROPOSALS HAVE TO OFFER AND HOW THEY PLAN TO PAY FOR IT. I BELIEVE THAT SENATOR OBAMA HAS PROVEN MUCH CONSISTENCY IN HIS APPROACH ON HOW TO RESOLVE THIS CRISIS AND MAINTAINED A LEVEL OF CALM DURING THIS FLUCTUATING ECONOMIC CRISIS WHICH IS WHAT LEADERSHIP IS ABOUT IN MY OPINION. PRESENTING A SOUND PRACTICAL MEANS THAT WE AS A NATION WILL HAVE TO ADJUST OUR THINKING, SPENDING AND SAVING PRACTICES IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THIS TOGETHER. TIMES ARE GONNA BE TOUGHER THAN EVER WE ALL HAVE TO SACRIFICE LOOK AT ME JOBLESS............. NO HEALTH CARE, NO SAVINGS ALL GONE... I NEED A JOB THAT DOESN'T BASE THEIR SUCCESS ON THE MARKET AND SHIP JOBS OFFSHORE IN ORDER TO GIVE BONUES AND NICE EATING ACCOMODATIONS TO TOP LEVEL MANAGEMENT WITHOUT CUTTING THOSE PERKS BEFORE CUTTING MY MID LEVEL POSITION AT $58k PER YEAR! THIS MAKES ME WANT TO DO BETTER JUST TO PROVE THAT I CAN AND BY GIVING MY SUPPORT TO THIS CAMPAIGN AT THIS TIME IN MY LIFE... IT'S ALL I GOT LEFT TO DO ABOUT MY PART IN THE SOLUTION.
IF I BELIEVED THAT ANYBODY READ THIS BLOG OR IF SOMEONE WERE TO ASK ME WHAT WOULD I SAY IN RESPONSE TO THESE CONTROVERSAL ISSUES BEING RAISED ON THE RIGHT ABOUT WHO OUR CANDIDATE IS AND STILL QUESTIONING HIS JUDGEMENT TO DISTRACT OUR NATION AND DIVIDE US INTO RACIAL POLITICS. BAITING CIVIL RIGHT LEADERS INTO THE DISCUSSION TO INCITE MORE POLARIZATION IS A TACTIC GONE CRAZY...
I WOULD SAY "Bob.... I wanna respond to that once and for all put this to bed with the Citizens of America so we can move onto more important topics, my Economic Plan Proposal, Health Care Proposal, and how I plan to devote my administration to resolving War in Iraq so our sons and daughters can come home. Find Bin Laden to capture and Kill him in Afphasganistan(sp).
I don't pal around with terriorist, and I never knew the extent of what Profesor Ayers crimes were at the time when we met subsequently when all the facts where known I denounced this behavior. I'm not a terriorist or an Arab, as far as John Lewis is concerned he has a right to express his own opinion about the McCain-Palin Ticket conduct during their rally's, and John Lewis has come forward to clarify his remarks and by no means meant that John McCain a great American Hero was likened to George Wallace but that the tone was changing radically on the right when Governor Palin decided to question my patriotism as an American Citizen supporters began to chide disrespectful remarks even suggesting to "Kill Him" This began at a Rally on Oct. 4th when Campaing decided their focus would be on character not economy because at the time Senator McCain had no plan. Then it was his running mates task [ Sarah Palin] to raise the issue on the trail "who is Senator Obama and do you know he pals around with Domestic Terriorist to a crowd who shouted back "He's a Terriorist and she continued to speak to the crowd without interruping her speech to condemn that remark. This is when I was trying to work hard on a Economic Package to help all Americans during this crisis." Next question????????????
THESE ARE DISTRACTIONS TO DIVIDE US, WE NEED TO ALL KEEP FOCUS ON WHATS REALLY IMPORTANT, RACIAL HATRED, POVERTY, DISEASE ARE CHALLENGES WE WILL ALWAYS FACE, AND THATS UNFORTUNATE BUT FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO POINT TO COLOR AS A FACTOR. HAS ANYONE BEEN BETTER OFF BECAUSE OF SOMEONE'S RACE IN LEADERSHIP. DOES A WHITE MAN GET THE JOB DONE BETTER BECAUSE HE'S WHITE? OR DO YOU WANT SOMEONE WHO CAN GET THE JOB DONE REGARDLESS OF WHAT COLOR HE IS AS LONG AS HE WORKING FOR THE COMMON GOOD FOR ALL AMERICANS. THESE ARE THE HARD QUESTIONS ARE YOU ANY BETTER OFF NOW THAN YOU WERE BEFORE BUSH 1, RONALD REGAN, RICHARD NIXON........? BILL CLINTON, GEORGE BUSH?
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHARE YOUR ANSWER. :)
GOD BLESS ALL OF US AND HOPE WE WIN BY A LANDSLIDE!!!!
THIS POST IS A WAKE UP CALL TO ALL BLOGGERS
LETS NOT GET DIZZY W/ THE HYPE....
LETS LOOK AT OUR TICKET - OBAMA BIDEN CAMPAIGN STRENGTHS - SOME OF US ARE OUT OF TOUCH BUT THE TRUTH IS ALWAYS THE BEST WAKE UP CALL LETS NOT GET SIDETRACKED REMEMBER;
THIS IS WHAT I KNOW IS TRUE - THERES A SMALL PERCENTAGE PEOPLE WHO ARE TRULY OUT OF TOUCH WITH POLITICAL ISSUES OF TODAY THIS ELECTION CYCLE THAT WILL SUPPORT THIS THE MCCAIN PALIN TICKET OR VOTE FOR RON PAUL AFTER HER FIRST TV INTERVIEW. ESPECIALLY IF CHARLES GIBSON OR ANY UNBIASED REPORTER ASKS HER TOUGH QUESTIONS ABOUT HER VIEWS AND HER CURRENT RECORD AS GOVERNOR OF ALASKA, WE DON'T HAVE TO DISCUSS HER FAMILY PROBLEMS ALTHOUGH SHE HAS PLENTY OF PERSONAL ISSUES TABLOIDS LOVE TO WRITE ABOUT. SO RICK DAVIS BE DAMNED! WE NEED TO KNOW WHO SHE IS THEY FOOLED AMERICA ABOUT WHO THEIR CAMPAIGN WAS CONSIDERING FOR 2ND IN CMD. TACTICAL FAILURE IF YOU SPIN IT RIGHT THIS WAS A POOR LAST MINUTE DECISION AND IT WILL GET EXPOSED PRIOR TO THE DEBATE. WHAT THIS IS - IS AN ATTEMPT TO BAMBOOZLE THE PRESS KARL ROVE STYLE THE SAME WAY THE DID ABOUT GOING INTO IRAQ BY USING AN IMAGE OF AN ATTRACTIVE WOMAN TO ATTRACT VOTES TO PROP UP A WEAK GOP PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE WHO HAS BEEN A MAJOR SUPPORTER OF BUSH WHITE HOUSE AND HAS VOTED 90 PERCENT OF THE TIME LOCK STEP W/THIS ADMINISTRATION. SINCE THEY BROUGHT GOVERNOR PALIN OUT AS HIS RUNNING MATE JOHN MCCAIN RARELY PHOTOGRAPHED OR SPEAKS PUBICLY ALONE OR HAS ANY PHOTOS WITH CINDY MCCAIN BY HIS SIDE.
THIS IS MORBID BUT IT WORKS FOR SOME OF OUR FAMILY WHO AREN'T ENGAGED IN THE POLITICS OR DRAMA STICK TO WHAT CANNOT BE DISPUTED. SHE HAS NO CREDITIALS TO ASSUME THE HIGHEST OFFICE AND THIS NEEDS TO BE SAID HEAD ON. BEING A CANDIDATE MY FEELINGS ARE IF YOU CAN'T STAND THE HEAT STAY IN ALASKA!
FIGHT BACK WITH HER RECORD AND THE FACT THAT IN NO WAY DOES A PTA PRESIDENT, RETIRED BEAUTY QUEEN/HUNTER OF MOOSE COMPARE TO OUR NOMINEE BARACK OBAMA.
GOD BLESS AMERICA :) MY HOME SWEET HOME!
LETS LOOK AT OUR TICKET - OBAMA BIDEN CAMPAIGN STRENGTHS - WHAT'S WITH EVERYBODY PEOPLE AREN'T STUPID SOME OF US ARE OUT OF TOUCH BUT THE TRUTH IS ALWAYS THE BEST WAKE UP CALL LETS NOT GET SIDETRACKED REMEMBER;
I only have one question - WHY, Y, Why? aren't we parading our VEEP and introducing Joe Biden to the American Public. His family and all those lovely grandchildren. Wimington has been the best place for visitors since 1980'somethin. Because my daughter was a patient at the Alfred I. Dupont Institute around 1988. Dr. Richard Bowen whose Chairman, Department of Orthopaedics performed leg lengthening surgery on my daughter. This surgery cost over $100K in the 80's. Joe should be centered there at that facility giving testimony about how he has fought for children like my daughter and other families who needs were great but funds were low or none they found hope and shelter in Wilmington, Delaware TAX FREE! during these long extended stays. THOSE WERE BUSH YEARS MY FRIENDS - OBAMA Team get busy!!!!!
THE MEDIA HASN'T VETTED THIS CANDIDATE YET! WATCH HER ONE ON ONE WITH CHARLIE GIBSON INTERVIEW; CEASE AND DECIST AT ONCE; LETS DO< | > :)PUMP UP JOE BIDEN, THE MEDIA IS MAKING OUR NOMINEE RUN AGAINST TWO PEOPLE WE ALSO HAVE TWO CANDIDATES. focusing on this diversion called SARAH Palin, Governor of Alaska, VP Nominee GOP whose already TOAST among those informed among us and the mainstream media. More attention should be on our Nominee's and less about the opposition. The media frizzy is working in favor of the GOP candidacy simply because we're feeling "THE CHALLENGE," of THIS RACE. IT was bound to happen, but we will WIN 2008 Presidential Election.
It was most refreshing to hear my Bishop T.D. Jakes represent his position about SARAH SMILE's speech before a congragation. He expressed that using GOD while speaking before that audience can "distort" and make listerners confused about whose giving the oratory or how it's represented. Rachel Maddow new show last night ON msnbc.
Moving along, Keep up the good work the strategy to stick with the issues is right on... But, many Americans don't know who Joe Biden is and what he's given to me and many others. Well if John McCain and SARAH SMILE are Mavericks - -PRESIDENT OBAMA AND VPRESIDENT JOE BIDEN gots" to be two Thoroughbreds BECAUSE ONLY THOROUGHBREDS WIN THE RACE.
GOD BLESS AMERICA MY HOME SWEET HOME :)
THE CAR COSTS $4.8 MILLIONAND IF YOU WANT TO TOUCH IT, YOU HAVE TO PAY $1000.IT BELONGS TO PRINCE ALWALEED FROM SAUDI ARABIA.Diamond Covered Mercedesof Prince Waleed:
Remember this when gasoline hits $5.00 a gallon.
You paid for this one.
OKAY, I was listening again to the pundits talking about President Bush's visit to Saudi Arabia to convience them to bring down the price of oil by increasing their production. And, of course we all should have heard by now what their answer was. FLAT NO WAY" JOSE~
HE DESERVED IT, AND EVERYONE WHO VOTED FOR HIM SHOULDN'T COMPLAIN ABOUT HOW THIS ALL TURNED OUT. IT GOT ME TO THINKING ABOUT "HIS WAR ON TIRRER" lol
I write comments on Hardball's blog and last week I left this comment for Chris Matthews as a question.
IF OSAMA BIN LADEN AND AL QUIDA INTENDED TO INVOKE TERROR ON US INSIDE THE U.S. WE HAVEN'T HAD ANOTHER ATTEMPT, BUT.....
HOW ABOUT WHAT THIER REAL AGENDA IS? ANSWER - IT IS TO CRIPPLE OUR ECONOMY, AND WEAKEN OUR INFRASTRUCTURE AND MILITARY. IF THAT IS WHAT THEY INTENDED WHEN THEY FLEW INTO THE WTO, IT HURT WALLSTREET, AND ALOT OF OTHERS AIRLINES. NOW, DURING THE LAST 5 YEARS OUR ECONOMY HAS GONE DOWN THE DOLLAR IS WEAKER THAN THE EURO AND POUND.
GAS PRICES SKYROCKETING EACH DAY, SOMETIMES TWICE A DAY COMMODITY CHANGES BECAUSE OF THE DEMAND SO THEY SAY?
I SAY THAT ALL OF THE FOLKS WHO FLEW THOSE PLANES WHERE FROM THAT REGION. SAUDI GOV'T DENIED THEY HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THOSE WHO PERPETRATED THIS HANIS ACT. OSAMA STILL ON THE RUN... AND, THEY AS OUR ALLIES CAN'T INCREASE PRODUCTION FOR THE #1 ALLY WHO GAURDS THEIR FIELDS IN ORDER FOR OIL TO GET PUMPED OUT AND SOLD AROUND THE WORLD. WE PROTECT THEM AND THEIR INTEREST IN KUWAIT. ANYWAY IF THE PRESIDENT, GEORGE BUSH THINKS WE ARE WINNING THE WAR ON "TIRRER" AS HE SAYS IT. THEN I THINK WE ARE LOSERS BECAUSE NOTHING HAS GOTTEN BETTER SINCE "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, EXCEPT WE CAUGHT THE WRONG GUY. AND KILLED HIM - HUNG HIM BUT WE CAN'T FIND THE ONE WHOSE MAINLY RESPONSIBLE.
I GET SO MAD BECAUSE HE'S STILL CAUSING PROBLEMS AND MAKING THREATS VIA VIDEO TAPE. WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO FIND HIM? SEE NO WAY JOHN MCCAIN CAN WIN THIS ELECTION WHEN WE THE PEOPLE CAN SEE THAT THE INSURGENCY DIDN'T WORK, WE STILL LOSING FIGHTING MEN AND WOMEN EVERYDAY OR THEY GETTING BLOW UP IED'S. SO, IM TERRORIZED WHEN I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT PAYING MY LANDLORD LATE EVERY MONTH, CAN'T AFFORD FOOD, CAUSE I NEED GAS I DRIVE AN 8 CYL VEHICLE. BUT, I DIDN'T SEE THIS COMING $4.09 A GALLON HERE IN VA.
I WISH THE ELECTION WERE TOMORROW. GET OUT AND VOTE KY AND OR WE NEED YOU! SHOW THE GOP AND GEORGE BUSH, HOW THE WE THE PEOPLE WILL GET THE JOB DONE.
ENOUGH FROM THE FAR LEFT! :)
Congratulations! OBAMA TEAM
Stay focused on Senator McCain and continue to keep that posture of integrity. I love it! Hilliary Clinton, has lost all of my respect and support. Believe me when I say that she has let her comments spin out of control this time.
Dignity and truth be damned she will do just about anything to win this election. Senator Clinton should have run her campaign in 2004. Clearly her time has passed and so has her message of fear and dread of the "whites not voting for a black candidate", her husband, the former President Clinton has done these same type of gaffs or misspeak as they often so eloquently put it. It's clear about the demographics of this race, but the point is to reachout to all Americans willing or unwillingly to help all of us CHANGE the way this current Administrastion and previous Administrations allow politics, money from corporations, and Special Interest organizations reap benefits or whose influence often dictates how we handle our economic, foreign affairs to the point until now it has hurt us. No longer will we be divided as a Nation based on skin pigmentation. It's absurd! But, people tend to believe what they hear if repeated enough and she's gone too far with quoting ap reports that site "hard working Americans as White Americans" what was that all about if not to divide and conquer..... Every primary before election day they spin another race issue out of her camp or one of the Republican allies as FOX NEWS< NY Times, Lanny Davis and others spin venom. I hope the good citizens of West Virginia, and Kentucky who I have friends who live there near VA boarder. That they view her remarks as a slight against them as to say they aren't smart enough or progressive in their thinking towards blacks being in leadership. WRONG ANSWER. Senator Clinton forgot that it is full of mixed marriages and mixed children as a result of marriages where reconciliation has come into the hills of West Virginia. Just ask Senator Byrd they've evolved as did most of the Southern community. So maybe they didn't figure that into the equation, yes there are some who aren't voting for Senator Obama, but guess what those people probably woudnt voted anyway. When the time comes they willingness to become a part of a bigger movement, dont allow race or gender to become the decisive factor in this race. Lets just stick to the facts of how you gonna make the change and what resources whose gonna be VP. Getting John McCain because we're focusing on nonsense.
Tell the truth, lets be honest. All of us are hard working American's, we all have the same vote and that's for CHANGE! Hilliary Clinton is determined to destroy her own legacy, her husbands, and rip apart our party. I say that she should be ashamed of herself and how it looks to those who loved and supported thier Administration all throughout those days of impeachment, Reverand Wright was one of the Pastor's called to the White House and pictures prove that he and Bill Clinton met during that time along with many other black Pastors from the African American Community. So this is a sad way to end an enduring relationship with a specific group whose never wavered in their support of the Democratic Party. Party officials need to begin to help Senator Clinton to unwind because she is about to do irrepairable damage to our Candidate in November with such polarizing remarks.
Forgive me if this has offended anyone who might stumble upon my blog, I want peace in this world I'm tired of struggling and feeling like my voice never gets heard. Because I'm poor first, then I'm black. So we all know that we're different but that doesn't mean we don't have that one thing in common being among the working poor. OBAMA has shown that he isn't going to stoop to that level and Senator you have run a great campaign no real problems among your staff never a monetary issue and you've proven your managerial skills and judgement in handling tough situations we all watched you do it the last month was the toughest I've seen. It sharpened you like Iron sharpens Iron.
Don't worry we can get through another 4 weeks of this mess. I will pray for all of the candidates remaining. GOD BLESS AMERICA! OUR HOME SWEET HOME.........
Senator Obama is a triple threat to the electorate and the establishment candidacy because they know he is for the people and will be elected by the people. But Senator you and your staff have got to get in the mud just for a little while. Don’t allow the media to spin this Reverend Wright issue any further. Either you are with him or against him you need to take a solid stand on that and defend it honorably. Not by throwing your former Pastor under the bus, but explaining that JC portion of why you sat in the pews for 20 years because he was actually teaching the gospel. Salvation is why you went to church not for friendship or political advise from your Pastor. You need to expand on his answers that he gave Bill Moyer. Maybe you should sit down with Larry King or Bill Moyer somebody for 1 hour and let the questions begin. I wouldn’t debate Hillary Clinton again because they have spent $$ to buy media favoritism it’s obvious and intelligent people can see what is going on, but the average American of any race thinks this is really going to far and by the time we get to November if the Republicans have their way the nation will be totally polarized
She has sold out for the nomination in my opinion…. Her last TV AD full of fear mongering. America needs to be reminded about the whole Ken Starr fiasco..... There time has passed...
LOOK HERE......
IM COMMITTED TO THIS CAMPAIGN HERE. I MEAN IT'S NOT ABOUT ANYBODY WHOSE OVER 45 YEARS OF AGE.. IF YOU READ THE BIBLE READ ABOUT ABRAHAM - THEN FAST FWD TO JESUS...
SOMETIMES YOU DON'T LIVE LONG ENOUGH [ MLK JR., JFK, RFK, Medgar Evers, Malcolm, and others the famous 3]
BUT IF YOU JUST HOLD OUT.. NO DOUBT.. [THIS IS FOR THE NON- BELIEVERS] TIME, AND PATIENTS GO A LONG, LONG WAY.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!!! ELECT BARAK OBAMA FOR THE YOUNG PEOPLE OUR FUTURE.. THEY WANT HIM.. WHOSE GOING TO PAY FOR GOP'S MESS..
BABY BOOMERS - NO
OUR CHILDREN.. YES!!!
SENATOR OBAMA IS AMAZING
WELL, WATCHING CHRIS MATTHEWS HARDBALL COLLEGE TOUR!!!!!
HE DOING GREAT!
ACTUALLY, HE FORGOT TO MENTION WITH GREEN JOBS AND ALL JOBS COMES RETRAINING... AND THAT MAKES AVERAGE AMERICANS LIKE ME FEEL SURE THAT HE WILL IMPLEMENT PROGRESSIVE CHANGE IN USA.
GO OBAMA 2008... PRESIDENT OBAMA
I LIKE THE SOUND OF THAT.....
Question?
WHEN WE WENT INTO IRAQ, THEY DID HAVE OIL? WE INVESTED IN THEIR COUNTRY AND PIPELINE IS IN PLACE THAT'S WHY WE PAID HALIBURTON ALL THAT MONEY... HELP ME OUT PLEASE!
I HAVE TWO QUESTIONS ONE IS FOR ANYBODY WHO HAS THE ANSWER, THE SECOND IS TO SENATOR OBAMA AND CAMPAIGN..... OR A POLITICIAN WHO KNOWS!
IF WE ARE SENDING OUR TAX DOLLARS, SONS/DAUGHTERS, AND INVESTING IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE OF IRAQ ALLIES WITH AND DANCE FRIENDS WITH SAUDI AND OPEC - U KNOW THE ONES... SHOULDN'T THE USA BE GETTING OIL AT A DISCOUNT RATE.... I MEAN WE BARELY EATING OVER HERE NOW TO FINANCE THIS WAR... I BET SOMEBODY WOULD READ THIS AND SAY SHE'S EITHER TRYING TO BE FUNNY OR JUST CRAZY.. BUT I'M SERIOUS AS DUMB AS ALL THIS SOUNDS...
SECOND QUESTION - FREE FOR ALL
WHY CAN'T THE US OIL RESERVES BE USED? IF WE HAVE RESERVES CAN'T THEY RELEASE 1/4 OR 1/3 OF IT TO STIMULUS THE GAS PRICES? I AM REALLY TRYING TO UNDERSTAND USING REASON WHICH IS PROBABLY MY FIRST ERROR..
NOW IS A CRITICAL TIME AS ANY AND IT WOULD ENABLE THE PRICE OF GASOLINE TO COME DOWN SUBSTANTIALLY ENOUGH TO SATISFY THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND EVEN IF, AND I MEAN IF YOU ARE AGAINST DRILLING IN ALASKA... HOW CAN YOU AVOID MORE DISASTER THIS WAY. THE EFFECTS ARE ALREADY BECOMING NOTICABLE.. GAS SHORTAGE LINES WERE PUT IN PLACE IN THE 70'S TO CONSERVE RIGHT AFTER HE OVERTHROW OF THE IRANIAN GOV'T... IT WAS A MESS A WE STARTED DRIVING SMALLER CARS SHORTLY AFTER THAT THE FORD PINTO WAS A HIT!
wELL, I'M THINKING THIS IS A RIGHT NOW THING FOR ADMIN TO BE PRESSURED TO DO.. CONGRESS OR EITHER ONE OF OUR CANDIDATES NEED TO ROLL UP ON THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY.
IT WOULD BE GREAT... IF OUR CANDIDATE COULD PRE-EMPT A SHORT TERM SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE OF GAS.. AND STIMULIS WON'T CHANGE THOSE PRICES AND LISTENING TO TESTIMONY OFF THE HILL TODAY EXXON IS PADDING THEIR BOOKS OR SOMETHING.. US PROFITS DIDN'T EXCEED WHAT THEY OWED IN TAXES.
RIDICULOUS OPEN UP THE BOOKS LET US SEE.... I DON'T BELIEVE IT.. IT'S OKAY TO CALL ON THEM TO USE PROFITS FOR RESEARCH BUT SHORT TERM THOSE OIL LEASES IN ALASKA HELD BY BP.. SOMEBODY OUGHT TO TAKE KINDLY TO OUR 4000 TROOP SACRIFICE FOR THE OIL AND A PRESENCE SHOULD GIVE ON THE PRICE OF A BARREL COMING TO US IMPORTED FROM OPEC! WHY ARE WE SPILLING BLOOD IN THE DESERT IF THIS IS ALL GIVE...... THE IRAQI GOV'T HAS OIL! I'M IGNORANT ABOUT THIS BUT I PAY AT THE PUMP SO HELP ME OUT.. PLEASE HELP ME AND A MILLION MORE LIKE ME UNDERSTAND OUR PLIGHT IN THIS FIGHT AGAINST TERRORISM. WAS WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION AND CONTROL OF THE OIL FIELDS HAILBURTON WENT OVER TO PUT OUT FIRES..... REMEMBER? DID THAT MAKE PRICES GO UP? WHY HAVE THE PRICE FOR A BARREL OF OIL GONE UP? I AM SERIOUS...
. WE SHOULDN' T HAVE TO SPEND MORE THAN $1 AT THE PUMP FOR PREMIUM.. DIESEL $1.1 MAYBE... WE HAVE SENIOR CITIZENS , SICK AND SHUT IN WHO DEPEND ON DELIVERIES, DISABBLE VETERANS WHO CAN'T AFFORD THIS MORE FOLKS GETTING FOOD STAMPS.. WHY?
THOSE ARE THE ISSUES I AM CONCERNED ABOUT- I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A NEED TO RESOLVE NOW. OUR ECONOMY IS IN SINKING SAND............
BE BLESSED. HOPE SOMEBODY CAN HELP ME OUT...
I PROMISED THAT I WOULD WAIT UNTIL SENATOR OBAMA WON/LOST PA PRIMARIES BEFORE I WOULD POST AGAIN. OF COURSE, LISTENING TO C-SPAN TODAY LISTENING TO AMERICA'S REAL BASE BETWEEN 7AM-730AM GIVES A PULSE OF WHERE THE PEOPLE STAND. I WAS AMAZED AND SURPRISED AT THE SUPPORT SENATOR OBAMA IS GETTING FROM REPUBLICANS AND INDEPENDANTS WHOSE VOICES ARE SOUNDING MORE AND MORE LIKE OTHERS WHO'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS CURRENT ADMINISTRATION AND WASHINGTONS POLITICS AS USUAL.
TODAY, AN IMPORTANT SPEECH IS TO BE GIVEN IF I HAVEN'T ALREADY MISSED CABINET SECRETARY PAULSON ON " MORE GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT FOR FINANCE COMMUNITY AND HOW TO SOLVE THE CURRENT MORTGAGE CRISIS IN AMERICA. WHAT THE ADMINISTRATION HAS PROPOSED SOUNDS SIMILAR IN NATURE TO WHAT SENATOR OBAMA HAD OUTLINED DURING A STUMP SPEECH LAST WEEK - 30 MILLION[BIILLION]DOLLAR BAIL OUT OF BEARS STERNS FINANCIAL GROUP, WHICH NEEDED IT TO PAY IT'S LENDERS AND INVESTMENT HOLDERS OFF BEFORE THEY WENT BELLY UP COMPLETELY. BUT IT STILL HASN'T ADDRESSED THE CONSUMERS OF THOSE LOANS IT DOESN'T HELP THEM NOW...
SENATOR CLINTON HAS MADE PROPOSALS THAT ALSO HAVE SOMEHOW GOT ON THE BUSH ADMIN. RADAR NOW.. JOHN MCCAIN HAS NOT OUTLINE YET, HE IS FOCUSED ON CONTINUING THE PRESENCE IN IRAQ. WELL, HALIBURTON HAS MOVED IT'S HEADQUARTERS TO DUBAI, INDIA HELP ME ON MY SPELLING FOLKS. BUT IF THAT IS THE CASE THEN THEY TOO HAVE REALIZED THAT THE CURRENT CLIMATE OF US ECONOMY ( PROFITS FROM THE POST MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX WAR ON IRAQ), MOVING MONEY AND PROFITS INTO FOREIGN LANDS AND FOREIGN BANKS WHICH LEAVES OUR ECONOMY BROKE. MORE AND MORE CORPORATIONS ARE DOING THIS BECAUSE OF COSTS AND IT LEAVES MORE ROOM FOR BIG BONUSES PAKAGE FOR CEO'S AND THE LIKE. IT TICKED ME OFF TO HEAR OUR CURRENT VICE PRESIDENT SAY "SO" ABOUT WHAT WE THOUGHT OF CURRENT SITUATION. TOLD A REPORT "SO" IM NOT CONCERNED WITH PUBLIC OPINION.. IN SO MANY WORDS "SO" IS A DIRECT QUOTE!
SOMEBODY HAS TO GET CONGRESS AND HOUSE TO BLOCK THIS LEGISLATIONS COMING FROM CURRENT ADMINISTRATION TO CHANGE FINANCIAL STRUCTURE BECAUSE NINE TIMES OUTTA TEN IT WILL GIVE THEM COMPLETE PROTECTION AND EXONERATION FOR WHAT THEY'VE CREATED OR ENABLED THE LARGEST FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS TO PULL OFF.. A HIEST OF AMERICAN TAX PAYER'S MONEY.. WE ARE LEFT PAYING $3.23 FOR LOWEST GRADE OF FUEL FOR OUR HIGH PREMIUM AUTO'S AND CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY FOR VEGETABLES, MILK, EGGS, BREAD.. THE BASICS ARE DOUBLE NOW. TRUCKERS ARE SAYING DIESEL FUEL IS NOW OVER $4 BUCKS A GALLON. WHEN DOES THE MIDDLE-LOWER INCOME TAXPAYERS GET THE BAIL OUT... NOT A TAX REBATE TO ENCOURAGE ME TO GO SHOPPING. I MEAN RELIEF CAUSE I'M STIIL PAYING ESSENTIALS RENT, UTILITIES, AND SOME HAVE CHILD CARE EXPENSES THAT DON'T QUALIFY FOR REDUCTION BASE INCOME. WHAT DO WE DO IN THE MEANTIME. WAIT FOR A NEW ADMINSTRATION BEFORE WE GET ANY RELIEF, LET THIS CURRENT ADMINISTRATION REVIEW AND REVISE TO RUN FOR COVER.
WELL, OUR BEST CHANCE IS SHOWING UP TO VOTE ON ELECTION DAY BUT IN THE MEANTIME, TWO MORE GLACIERS HAVE MELTED FLOODING IS ALL OVER THE PLACE AND THE DOLLAR HAS DECLINED TO AN ALL TIME LOW... WE ARE A POOR NATION LIVING OFF OF PLASTIC AND BORROWED FUNDS FROM NATIONS LIKE CHINA, SAUDI... PROPING UP OUR GOVERNMENT AND IT'S PEOPLE. WE HAVE SPENT ALL OUR NATIONS MONEY AND IT'S HEMMORAGED TO DEATH.... TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS "REGANOMICS" HAVE CRIPPLED THE STRONGEST NATION THAT EVER WAS ALONG WITH THE MILITARY INDUSTIAL COMPLEX, IT'S WORSE THAN ANY PIRATE MOVIE EVER MADE...
WELL, WE NEED A ROBIN HOOD FOR WE THE PEOPLE TO GET OUR MONEY BACK FROM THESE BUNCH OF THEIVES.. IT'S CALLED TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN, TRICKLED DOWN IT NEVER GETS TO THE MIDDLE ONLY THE UPPER HALF - LETS CHANGE THE DIRECTION OF THE WAY AMERICA DOES BUSINESS. LETS SHOW THE WORLD WE STILL ARE FOR THE PEOPLE AND BY THE PEOPLE. WE AREN'T COMMUNIST BECAUSE WE CAN SEE THE UNEVENESS OF THIS ECONOMIC DIVIDE.
FOLKS MAY HAVE OVERSPENT, AND FOOLISHLY GOTTEN LOANS FROM LENDERS WHO TOOK ADVANTAGE OF UNIFORMED CONSUMERS WHO PRIMARILY DON'T DEAL WITH DETAILS JUST A BOTTOM $$ LINE.... AMERICA SHOULD STAY ON TIGHT BUDGET FOR NEXT 2O YEARS AND STOP FINANCING FIASCO'S LIKE THE ONE IN IRAQ. SENATOR MCCAIN IS READY TO CONTINUE THAT PRESENCE UNTIL MID TO LATE 20'S WHICH BY THEN WE WILL BE A 3RD WORLD NATION AND HE'LL BE DEAD FROM OLD AGE.....
NOW, IS AN URGENCY AS SENATOR OBAMA HAS SAID, WE CAN'T AFFORD TO WAIT ANY LONGER FOR THINGS TO CHANGE. WE HAVE TO GET OUR PLACE BACK IN THE WORLD ECONOMY AS WELL AS BUILDING OUR NATION BACK UP TO A SUPER STRENGTH IT USE TO BE A LEADER OF INDUSTRY AND INVENTORS. WE BUILT THINGS, AND DEVELOPED WORLD CHANGING TECHNOLOGY AND SCIENCE... WE FLEW, DROVE, AND DID TELEGRAPH SERVICE FIRST.. THE WORLD CAUGHT UP WITH OUR YOUNG NATION AND GREW BY OUR EXAMPLE. WE'VE EDUCATED THEIR POOR, AND FEED IMPOVERISHED NATIONS BUT NEGLECT THE PEOPLE WHO STOOD WITH AND SACRIFICED ALL FOR SCRAPS AT THE TABLE... NO, OUR CHILDREN DESERVE A FUTURE IN A PEACEFUL WORLD AND SENATOR OBAMA HAS THE ABILITY TO MAKE THIS A REALTY.
WE ARE CELEBRATING TWO MAGNIFICENT LIVES THIS WEEK ROBERT F KENNEDY, AND REV. DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. TWO EXTRODINARY PEOPLE WHOSE FOCUS TURNED SHORTLY BEFORE THEIR DEATHS AGAINST WAR AND AMERICAS WAY OF DOING FOREIGN AFFAIRS VS. OUR NATIONS ECONOMY, WE HAVE PROGRESSED SOME, BUT IT'S STILL MUCH WORK TO BE DONE AND 43 YEARS LATER NOT A WHOLE LOT HAS CHANGED EXCEPT FOR THEIR ARE MORE WEALTHY AMERICANS. DOUBLE POOR, AND IMPOVERISHED WHY WHEN WE CONTRIBUTE TO THE LARGEST STRONGEST NATION ON EARTH. NO HOMELESSNESS, DISEASE, HUNGER SHOULD EXIST IN THE USA. LETS THINK ON THAT.....
WAKE UP Y'ALL... TAKE BACK WHAT THE DEVIL HAS STOLEN FROM US. OR WE WILL BE SPENDING YEN NOT DOLLARS VERY SOON!
VERY OPEN TO ALL COMMENTS, PLEASE, JUST LEAVE PROFANITY OUT IF POSSIBLE....
GOD BLESS AMERICA
GREETINGS ALL,
TO ALL CNN MEDIA FANS, MSNBC MORNING JOE, PAT BUCHANAN, TUCKER CARLSON, AND NOAH GOLDBERG, OF THE NATIONAL REVIEW.... AND THE REST. OH AND FRANK LUNTZ, THE POLLMASTER FOR RNC.
IT WAS GREAT HEARING AMERICANS TALK ABOUT OUR FAMILY PROBLEM OF RACE OPENLY ON ALL THE TALK MORNING SHOWS, AND EVENING CABLE NEWS MEDIA NETWORKS. IT WAS REFRESHING TO HEAR BAY BUCHANAN COMPLEMENT SENATOR OBAMA FOR MANIFICENT SPEECH GIVEN YESTERDAY.. WE ALL ARE SO PROUD OF THE SENATOR FROM ILLINOIS. BUT, TO NO SURPRISE THE MEDIA PUNDITS ARE SAYING THIS STILL ISN'T ENOUGH TO SETTLE THE MINDS OF WHITE BLUE COLLAR AMERICANS, WHO AGAIN CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE SENATOR WOULD CONTINUE TO DEFEND HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS PASTOR... THIS SPEECH WAS HISTORIC!!!!
Keep the Dialog flowing, its good AA should not be sensative to the blow back from Senator Obama's speech yesterday, lets be optimistic that we'll achieve far better greatness as a nation if we bury our cultural differences in order shape a 21st Century Democracy in which we all have something to bring to table for change and keep our Homeland Safe and Secure, our Economy strong, and end the senseless War so we can focus on our real enemies to bring about Peace all over the Middle East throughout the Region. It's my hope, and prayer.... We are on the right track now!
I WOULD LIKE TO RESPOND TO WHAT THE NEW TALKING POINTS ARE NOW, ABOUT THE HATEFUL WORDS FROM DR. WRIGHT'S SERMON'S, ESPECIALLY THE " GOD D-- AMERICA" SOUND BITE THEY WANT AMERICANS TO HEAR OVER AND OVER AGAIN...
IT WAS NOT HATERED BEING PREACHED FROM THE PULPIT.. TUCKER, PAT.... YESTERDAY I POSTED MLK, JR. "THE DRUM MAJOR INSTINCT" SPEECH GIVEN 2 MONTHS BEFORE HIS ASSASSINATION IN 1968, 40 YEARS LATER WE MAY BE DISCUSSING A DIFFERENT WAR, ECONOMICS HAVE CHANGED BUT THE PRINCIPLES OF RACISM, AND HIS CONDEMNATION OF VIIETNAM WAR, AND AMERICA ARE ALMOST PARALLEL TO WHAT DR. JEREMIAH WRIGHT SPOKE BUT DR. KING IS MORE ELOQUENT AND IF YOU GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO LISTEN TO THIS SERMON GOOGLE IT UP... OR READ IT ON MY BLOG .
"God didn't call America to do what she's doing in the world now. (Preach it, preach it) God didn't call America to engage in a senseless, unjust war as the war in Vietnam. And we are criminals in that war. We’ve committed more war crimes almost than any nation in the world, and I'm going to continue to say it. And we won't stop it because of our pride and our arrogance as a nation.But God has a way of even putting nations in their place. (Amen) The God that I worship has a way of saying, "Don't play with me." (Yes) He has a way of saying, as the God of the Old Testament used to say to the Hebrews, "Don’t play with me, Israel. Don't play with me, Babylon. (Yes) Be still and know that I'm God. And if you don't stop your reckless course, I'll rise up and break the backbone of your power." (Yes) And that can happen to America. (Yes) Every now and then I go back and read Gibbons' Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. And when I come and look at America, I say to myself, the parallels are frightening. And we have perverted the drum major instinct".

Delivered by Martin Luther King, JR., at Ebenezer Baptist Church, Atlanta, Georgia, on 4 February 1968. MLKEC.
Courtesy of AOL Radio, Mind you I have only heard snipets of speeches given by Dr. King prior to 1968. This oratory was given two months before his asassination. He spoke about war, racisim, false prosperity, and where we were headed as a nation. It was so eleoquent and prophetic 40 years later.Today, we are facing the same issues with no true leadership from our politicians, our government, or within our own community. We all in some way, shape, or form are faced with the need to be recognized. A need to become a success while most of us make it our mission in life to become prosperous. That's a wonderful achievement even while in pursuit, but at what price? Is it to serve or to be self serving in order to gain recognition for greatness. Why are we the major consumers in America? Black american's always know how to look propserous even while living in a poor economy. Even if we don't have a dime in our pockets we manage to always "represent."If you are like minded you will enjoy reading this speech and maybe you'll come away with a better understanding of what greatness truly means. THIS IS DEDICATED TO THE FUTURE PRESIDENT OF THE USA INCUMBENT TO BE PRESIDENT OBAMA.... THE EPITOMY OF GREATNESS TODAY, HIS SPEECH WAS MAGNIFICENT....

Even if we don't have a dime in our pockets we manage to always "represent."If you are like minded you will enjoy reading this speech and maybe you'll come away with a better understanding of what greatness truly means.
THIS IS DEDICATED TO THE FUTURE PRESIDENT OF THE USA INCUMBENT TO BE PRESIDENT OBAMA.... THE EPITOMY OF GREATNESS TODAY, HIS SPEECH WAS MAGNIFICENT....
And that's all I want to say.If I can help somebody as I pass along,If I can cheer somebody with a word or song,If I can show somebody he's traveling wrong,Then my living will not be in vain.If I can do my duty as a Christian ought,If I can bring salvation to a world once wrought,If I can spread the message as the master taught,Then my living will not be in vain.
YOU GUYS, I AM SO MOVED BY THIS SPEECH HE DID A MAGNIFICENT JOB, TACTFULLY HE EXPLAINED HIS POSITION ON THIS ISSUE ALMOST BROUGHT ME TO TEARS, AND I'M GLAD THAT SENATOR OBAMA AND HIS CAMPAIGN DO READ THESE BLOGS... HE MIGHT NOT HAVE USED MY WORDS MY MOTIVATION CERTAINLY WAS FELT. I BELIEVE IN UNITY YOU GUYS, SO IF I BEEN SOUNDING OFF THE LAST FEW DAYS, I APOLOGIZE. CHARGE IT TO MY HEAD NOT MY HEART.

FRIENDS, LETS PLEASE TAKE TO THE MEDIA AND CONGRESS AND SENATOR CLINTON, AND SENATOR OBAMA NEED TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES NOW A DEBATE IS NEEDED NOW! WE HAVE TO STOP BEING OFFENDED BY THESE REMARKS BEING PROPRAGANDA PROPS OR TRIGGER WORDS USED TO INCITE VOTING DISTRICTS WHO DO FEEL STRONGLY OPPOSED TO AFRICAN AMERICANS LIVING IN THEIR COMMUNITIES AND HOLDING HIGH POLITICAL OFFICE. NOBODY IS PLAYING A RACE CARD WHEN YOU ARE TELLING THE TRUTH.
SENATOR OBAMA, SPEAK FRANKLY ABOUT THIS ISSUE, WE WERE IN THE SENATE AFTER RECONSTRUCTION BUT A FEW THINGS HAPPENED TO OUR DEMOCRACY DURING THE POST CIVIL WAR TO CHANGE THAT DEAL. IT HAS TAKEN THIS LONG FOR AMERICAN TO TOLERATE A BLACK CANDIDANCY, AND YES PLEASE EMPHASIS SHOULD BE PLACED ON THIS FACT. GOD HAS EXPOSED AMERICA THIS TIME AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY APPEARS TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS DEALING WITH WHERE WE STAND IN THE SCHEME OF THINGS AS BLACKS IN POLITICS. AND IF THEY WANT US TO SUPPOR THE DNC AND PARTY CANDIDATES EVEN YOU SENATOR OBAMA MUST ADDRESS THIS FRANKLY, HONESTLY, AND HEAD ON.
FOR CENTURIES NOW, AMERICA HAS NOT ACKNOWLEDGED THE DAMAGE PUT UPON THE AFRICAN AMERICANS WHO HAVE FOUGHT THROUGH SLAVERY FOR EDUCATION, DECENT HOUSING, AND JUST A PLACE AMONG OTHER IMMIGRANTS WHO CAME TO THIS COUNTRY VOLUNTARILY. NOW THE POLICTICAL PUNDITS ARE USING THIS CHEMICALLY IMBALANCED NOTION THAT RACE TALKED ABOUT IN ANY FORUM IS DULY NOTED AS RACIST IF A BLACK PERSON OR A WHITE PERSON HAPPENS TO SAY THE WORD BLACK! OR IF WHITE WOMEN FEEL WRONGED BECAUSE THEY HAVE SUFFERED TOO ALONG WITH OTHER MINORITIES. GERALDINE FERRARO IS NOT RACIST SHES HONEST. SHE SAID HOW SHE FELT WHICH TO ME IS MORE THAN ANY OF THE OTHER POLITICIANS EVEN OUR MAN IS DOING AT THIS TIME. IT WAS RIDICULOUS FOR HER TO SAY THAT SENATOR OBAMA IS "LUCKY" HE ISN'T LUCY HE IS ENTITLED TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT. THIS COUNTRY WASS BUILT ON THE BACKS OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN PEOPLE AND WE SUFFERED THROUGH THE PROCES SAND RECIEVED NO COMPENSATION OR PUBLIC ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FOR THOSE ACHIEVEMENTS. SO YES, HE WE STAND NOW A WOUNDED PEOPLE FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE PASSED DOWN FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION AND IN THIS AGE OF MODERN TECHNOLOGY INFORMATION PASSES QUICKLY AND MOST TIMES BY THE TIME IT GETS TO US ITS WATERED DOWN SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL. I ACCEPT SENATOR CLINTONS APOLOGY AND I RESPECT GERADINE FERRAROS RIGHT TO SPEAK HER MIND.. BUT SHE OLD AND SHOULD THINK CAREFULLY ABOUT WHAT SHE SAYS AND MOST PEOPLE WHO DON'T STUDY HISTORICAL FACTS DON KNOW THAT SENATOR OBAMA IS NOT THE FIRST INTELLIGENT AFICAN AMERICAN WHO WAS QAULIFIED TO HOLD OFFICE. FREDERICK DOUGLAS, BENJAMIN BANNEKER, MARTIN LUTHER KING, AND YES MALCOM SHABAZZ aka MALCOM X. ALL OF THESE BLACK MEN COULD HAVE HELD OR RAN FOR PRESIDENT AND BEEN A CONTENDER FOR THE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRATIC PARTY. YES, BENJAMIN BANNEKER, BOOKER T. WASHINGTON, AND FREDERICK DOUGLAS (WHO WAS FROM WASH DC) WERE REPUBLICANS! SO LETS PULL IT TOGETHER STOP PITTING THE AFRICAN AMERICAN VOTE AGAINST EVERY GROUP IN AMERICA. AND WHY CAN'T BLACK AMERICANS SUPPORT A BLACK CANDIDATE WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY SUPPORTED EVERY CANDIDATE THAT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS PRESENTED AND HELPED TO SUCCESSFULLY GET THE HOUSE AND SENATE BACK. AND WE ADOPTED PRESIDENT CLINTION AS OUR OWN UP UNTIL THIS PRIMARY RACE.. WHAT IS WRONG PEOPLE... WAKE UP.
We the People Election 2008 - This is where I Stand Where do you stand? "One nation under GOD, indivisable with Liberty and Justice for All"
I browsed over to aol to see what the latest polls where saying about our candidate and; To my surprise the blogs are very unfavorable towards Senator Obama, and people are saying he shouldn't run now. This is a big problem you guys!
This disturbs me because we have "supposely" outgrown racism and bigotry in USA, now it's politically incorrect to even stand for Black Pride in the African American Community, I guess I'm befuddled because it makes no sense in 1977 I graduated from HD Woodson Senior High in DC our colors were RED,BLACK, and GREEN. It gave us a sense of Pride! We needed to love ourselves because for years folks been denying us rights saying we weren't good enough... now fast forward into 2008......
Senator Obama attends a well-know black church in Chicago that based in an Urban Community which has and continues to serve that community well. It's hard listening to David Gregory, and others condemn his church because they lack the experience of growing up Black in America. We don't have quiet churches like most white americans can't relate unless they've gone and seen firsthand. It's unlike most White Affluent Churches non-pentecost you see, No shouting, no holy ghosts fits, and no old women dancing around the church praising the LORD until they faint and need to be revived from the annointing. We also refer to Bishops, Pastors, and Reverends wives as "First Lady" of the Church and she has folks to assist her in all things. So this needs to be put out into the mainstream media to wake up America to the fact that some things are unique to our culture. Black Pride was necessary for us to stand up and take our places in this country. Dr. Wright doesn't deserve this he has done nothing but serve this country honorably and in return nothing changed in the black community. So his remarks played totally out of context doesn't depict a hatred for AMERICA it depicts frustration towards a country that won't acknowledge the bad as well as good, we [AA] have endured through all this country's challenges have helped shape this country into the powerful nation that it is. We fought in wars my father was a WWII VET, my grandfather fought in WWI, and my uncle fought in Korea. All of us are proud Americans, but it's unfair to scrutinize a person's religion and to make it seem like his children were subjected to a monster every sunday.
How could they do this to a brilliant man, because they do not want Senator Obama to get elected and they realize they can't assassinate him the same way they've done in the past. So destoy his image and make his name match the image. SAD... but transparent African Americans are becoming dismayed, I am and I've been a democrat since I could vote. DNC isn't doing nothing to calm this down its getting worse. They want to pollarize him Sean Hannity is the Devil to me and Bill Kristol. Dangerous men with a platform, trust me this is all geared towards Hilliary winning PA, IN and in short becoming the nominee because all parties know SHE IS NOT GOING TO WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION... NOT! Black folks already upset saying in protest if she gets the nominatin like Mondale did they will show DNC by voting for MCCain, its a lose, lose situation now for the DNC.
Too Bad! This could have been the best election year the democratic party ever had in history, if our Nation wasn't still full of hatred towards the African American's you put every group up against our voting block to get people fired up to vote against us..... I'm definitely going to keep voicing my opinion on this. Not right, wrong. It's not even Christian what they're doing to Senator Obama and if he wants to become president he should denounce everything about growing up African American. We had to fight, nothing Dr. Wright said was untrue about this Nation it hurts to hear it out loud with so much passion but, honesty is what Jack Nicholson said, "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH," Our culture is different we worship different and if we want a African American in the White House it means
Then the mainstream media won't have any problems with him being the President of the United States of America, bottom line is they don't want Senator Obama to win. Now all hands are on deck and prepared to change America mind. If you feed the public anything i.e., Weapons of MAss destruction, they believe it...
Now they think Senator Obama is a Militant, and unpatriotic. I say shame on all of you Democratic Party especially because DNC should have come out in full force to condemn this type of Campaign strategy to tear down a person character and twist it using another man's words. To associate all that was said as if Senator Obama had written it. He wasn't present during that sermon but they are all digging to find a snapshot of him seated in pews as the Nail in the Coffin to his campaign.
AMERICA JUST NEEDED AN EXCUSE NOT TO SUPPORT THIS CANDIDATE, THEY ARE USING GOTCHA TACTICS, BUT MCCAIN IS A DIVORCEE AND OLD MAN, HILLIARY IS FIESTY, STUBBORN, AND CAN GET THE JOB DONE BUT, SENATOR OBAMA WOULD HAVE GIVEN HOPE TO THE ENTIRE WORLD THAT AMERICA IS CHANGING FOR THE BETTER. WE HAVE A SILENT BIGOTRY ISSUE IN THE USA WORSE THAN APPARTIED CAUSE WE THINK IF WE IGNORE IT LONG ENOUGH IT WILL GO AWAY.. WELL, 440 YEARS I CAN SEE IMPROVEMENT. YOU ALL STOPPED USING THE N WORD.
