Obama's a kid

In December 1966, when John McCain requested his first combat assignment in Vietnam, Barack Obama turned 5 years old and was enjoying the freedoms a child should enjoy.

As Obama turned 7, McCain had survived a burning jet fire on the USS Forrestal and had just flown his 23rd bombing mission over communist North Vietnam.

In 1973, as Obama reached age 12, McCain was finally released from a prisoner-of-war camp in the Hanoi Hilton.

At age 15, when Obama was still in high school, McCain became the commanding officer of a Naval Training Squadron in Florida. He turned a poorly managed military unit into a distinguished, combat-ready team.

When Obama reached the legal age of 21 and was experimenting with pot and cocaine, McCain declined an admiral promotion and ran for and was elected to Congress.

By 1987, Obama was a young man of 25 and McCain had assumed the office of senator from Arizona (after a successful four-year tour in the U.S. House of Representatives).

At age 36, Obama looked on as Sen. McCain was named one of Time magazine's 25 most influential people in America.

Whom do we choose as our next leader? Do we choose a man with proven military and political achievements, or a man with little experience other than a stint as a community leader and junior senator? Decisions, decisions!

Nancy Pelosi is three years younger than McQueeg. She was a sophomore in High School before he went to the Acadamy.

And the “community service organization” that Barry Hussein worked for is ACORN, a leftist group that is involved in voter registration fraud all over the USA. This group and its lawlessness ought to get much more publicity since BHO trots out his stint as an “organizer” to give himself some credentials as a leader.
This is the most pitifully inexperienced bozo ever to have had the audacity to throw his hat in the ring, and it is a sad indictment of Democrats that they have nominated such a deficient person for the Presidency.

More like a BRAT!

Good piece:)

“And the “community service organization” that Barry Hussein worked for is ACORN,”

Ugh. They are the worst. That’s the first mention I’ve seen of that.

[HoosierHawk]

And the “community service organization” that Barry Hussein worked for is ACORN...

I never knew he worked for ACORN. All I ever hear is that he was a community organizer. But ACORN is never mentioned. Now I know why.

More ties to the radical left have surfaced in Barack Obama's past. The latest stem from his involvement with the activist group, ACORN... ACORN...is the nation’s largest community organization of low- and moderate-income families, working together for social justice and stronger communities. Obama was a member of ACORN and taught leadership conferences for the group while working for Miner, Barnhill & Galland... Obama actively sought and received the endorsement by ACORN for his local campaigns. He has now done the same in his bid for the USA presidency... So what is ACORN all about? In a Spring 2003 article for...

If you don’t know what ACORN (the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) is all about, you better bone up. This left-wing group takes in 40 percent of its revenues from American taxpayers — you and me — and has leveraged nearly four decades of government subsidies to fund affiliates that promote the welfare state and undermine capitalism and self-reliance, some of which have been implicated in perpetuating illegal immigration and encouraging voter fraud. A new whistleblower report from the Consumer Rights League documents how Chicago-based ACORN has commingled public tax dollars with political projects...

ACORN is a former legal client of Senator Obama's, as the Sun-Times reported in 2006:

In 1995, former Republican Gov. Jim Edgar refused to implement the federal "Motor Voter" law, which Republicans argued could invite fraud and which some Republicans feared could swell the ranks of Democratic voters.

The law mandated people be allowed to register to vote in government offices such as driver's license renewal centers.

Obama sued on behalf of ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. The League of Women Voters and other public-interest groups joined in.

But, Barry Hussein is part of the Pepsi Generation. /sarc>

He's five years older than me but I have a lot more working experience in the private sector than he has.

He’s a punk.

But not from the street.

His was a very pampered upbringing.

He is an upper middle class punk.

[yoe]

Just wonderful. Sent to all, thanks.

[nmh]

He is an upper middle class punk.

I’ll accept that and add he HATES white people as well as the U.S. and all it stands for.

[Oztrich Boy]

Can Obama remember when he heard JFK had been assasinated?
