What would Michelle Obama do if she were called sweetie? WWMD? TRIBUNE-REVIEW By Salena Zito

A tip of the hat to Ben Smith over at Politico for reporting that Sen. Barack Obama referred to a female reporter in Detroit as "sweetie" when answering her question. Actually, when not answering her question.

Kind of makes you wonder how wife Michelle would feel if she were referred to as "sweetie"?

I believe they have only the one daughter, I’ve only seen her in a couple of family pictures.

They are socialists and ‘closet muslims’ and I don’t want them anywhere near the White House.

On the other hand, you can tell when people care for each other, witness the Bushs and the Reagans. We could ‘feel the love’ from them. Then look at the staged gestures of the Clintons.

You can see and feel love from people in their words and gestures, their give and take.

Even the most evil of people can love someone.
Others just don’t have it in them.

For some reason (no research here) I thought they had two kids. In any event, fidelity is virtuous, and the family that endures a long campaign has shown what it’s made of.

They may have two children. I have only seen a picture of Michelle and Obama hugging his daughter.

Too bad he wasn’t a true Christian man and not a big socialistic democrat with a list of very bad ‘friends’.

Missed that. I stand corrected. Maybe their excuse was they could get them back home (Chicago?) before bedtime?

I’ve got a bunch of beams to remove here locally before venturing any opinions about his faith. No matter what, our eternal destiny is more important than any election.

[No matter what, our eternal destiny is more important than any election.]

Yes, but our destiny well may be to have our heads chopped off if radical islam takes over and tries to make us convert. We are the infidel.

We ALL need to read his books!

Below are a few lines from Obama's books " his words': From Dreams of My Father: "I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites."

From Dreams of My Father: "I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race."

From Dreams of My Father: "There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white."

From Dreams of My Father: ; "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names."

From Dreams of My Father: "I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, Dubois and Mandela."

From Audacity of Hope: "I will stand with the ""them"" should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

“In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans … have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging,” he laments. “I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”

(Obama took a pledge when he joined the Trinity Church of Christ, to place Africa above all else;

LINK

"I will stand with ""them"" should the political winds change in an ugly direction". BARACK OBAMA from The Audacity Of Hope.

And indeed, he has.

Google, "Obama is my Cousin".

Kenyan Odinga ran for the presidency with a pact with the hard-line Muslims that he would force Islam on the country if elected. Having lost his bid for the presidency, he instigated a murderous rampage that resulted in over a thousand deaths- including burning down a Christian church with 50 people inside.

OBAMA WENT TO KENYA TO CAMPAIGN FOR ODINGA and was so supportive of Odinga, that a government official called Obama Odinga's 'stooge'.

What might possibly occur if Obama became president? Mass immigration of radical Islamists? Obama wants an open border!

More BILLIONS pumped into Africa? (Obama took a pledge when he joined the Trinity Church of Christ, to place Africa above all else)

Send troops to Africa? (Obama has already said that if president he would stop the fighting in Dafur)

After all, China is investing in Africa. Anyway, I agree with your conclusion that Obama could make LOTS of bad choices. So could Hillary! and McCain.

True, none of them are what we’d prefer - but some are much worse than others.

.

Jesus said “Sell your robe and buy a sword!”

Jesus never said “Hide in the closet and let them come and kill your children!”

Obama voted for post-birth euthanesia of newborn babies....

Regarding those who mistreat children Jesus said “Tie a millstone around their neck and throw them in the sea!”

Jesus was not a pansy!

The more accurate quote from Jesus regarding what to do when you see trouble coming wouldn't have been the one about the sword but about taking off for the hills without even bothering to pack up what's in the house.

[Tie a millstone around their neck and throw them in the sea]

Good quote. I did not know it was in regard to children.
