Excellent discussion on weekend F&F now. Bringing up Powell’s remarks outside NBC. Powell says he’s upset with the “negativity of the campaign” and calling Obama a Muslim and bringing up Ayers. F&F taking Powell apart saying McCain never said those things. condemned them, and took one person to task about calling O an Arab. They bring up the negativity of Obama supporters calling Palin unspeakable things. Now have a Black columnist named Deroy Murdock, young conservative, talks sense about economics. Wow, where has he been hiding!
Lots of people called Bill Clinton the “First Black President” also...and we all know that is not true...BUT the point is...the blacks very much related to Slick Willie.
I think that’s the point of the Muslim connection....although he may not be a devout muslim (personally I think he’s an atheist who believes there is no God greater than he)....he can be viewed as sympathizing with their cause. That’s why the Muslim connection is so important.
