Chock Full O' Nothin..
johnbo says we cannot talk about anything on Obama, yet every night I am innodated with Obama said this, his ex-minister that, his experience this, and his campaign that. I do not know what you are listening to or watching but I can say I get quite a bit of news-both good and bad about him. I don't know your what point really was other than to hurl insults and accusations at him in the guise that we cannot do that.
Wow
Very eloquent johnbo. Really. Whatever you do; do not ask him how he will achieve his goals.
Honestly, on his race, he may be whiter than me. Certainley more educated. He probably spells correctly on blogs.
Bob Marley was half white and black. I love the guy. He was frequently in the company of whites while lamenting the white part of his ancestry. His own child told my friend "don't touch me! No white people ever touch me!( Boathouse 1989 I think). I know this means nothing but it shows the race issue is so open to contradiction. It will never create, only destroy relations between the different pigments.
I think Buffalo Springfield said it best ...
"Paranoia runs deep; into your life it will creep. . . ."
A couple of problems with Obama is
With Obama We can’t talk about his big ears. We can't talk about his mother. We can't talk about his father. We can't talk about his grandmother unless he does, brings her up as a "typical white person."We can't talk about his wife, can't talk about his preacher, can't talk about his terrorist friends, can't talk about his voting record, can't talk about his religion. We can't talk about appeasement. We can't talk about color; we can't talk about lack of color. We can't talk about race. We can't talk about bombers and mobsters who are his friends. We can't talk about schooling. We can't talk about his name, "Hussein." We can't talk about his lack of experience. Can't talk about his income. Can't talk about his flag pin. We can't call him a liberal. We can't say anything about him because if we say anything about him we are just being racist. so just what can we discuss with his teleprompter?
The emporer has no clothes
Okay…take Ayers, Wright, and his questionable history in a muslem culture out of the equation. Here is something to think about. What about M.r. Obama and his 57 states that he visited? Now that is a bigger issue. He doesn’t even know how many states there are in the country he’s wanting to lead!! Maybe that is code for his ultimate imperical design to expand the US by taking over Canada and Mexico by force. Get over yourselves. Neither candidate is worth the pot they pee in. But Obama has far more questions looming over his head than even Hillary. Everyone thinks he speaks so eloquantly. Have you ever seen him speak when he doesn’t have a prepared message? He stutters, stammers, and ducks the issue every single time. He is the emporer that is wearing no clothes.
Weathermen/Ayers connection
Senator Obama strongly condemns the violent actions of the Weathermen group, as he does all acts of violence. But he was an 8-year-old child when Ayers & the Weathermen were active, & any attempt to connect Obama with events of almost 40 years ago is ridiculous.
WaPo: But the Obama-Ayers link is a tenuous one
Woods Fund President: This Whole Connection Is A Stretch
New York Sun: Those are pretty slender ties to a controversial figure

If he learned his Marxist doctrine at Harvard, I assume you are apprehensive about Chief Justice John Roberts, Scalia, Alberto Gonzales, & Mitt Romney too.
Ignorance is Bliss?
Some say "ignorance is bliss." In this case it's misinformed and scary.
