Actually, he joined on election day in 2008, not the day after.

And I joined on election day in 2004 (after 4 1/2 years of lurking). I’ve only initiated 15 posts.

I guess that makes me a troll in your eyes.

Back on the subject folks (and not a discussion of who has been here the longest) - I recall that during the Presidential Campaign Military officials were having concerns about Obama being given top security clearance. These concerns were based on their knowledge of Obama's strange relationships with anti-American individuals (Wright, Ayers, et. al) and ideas/statements he made and wrote in his books. I guess they have been forced to give him security clearance now. That, I find, very scary.

Now this story about Supermax prison banning his books.

It is pretty bad when books written by the president of our country fall into this category. What does that say to those who have supported him? Probably nothing, they have been numbed by the media hype and skin color guilt disease.

Obama now has one singular honor that no other President has ever had. His books are banned in his own country! Sickening to realize.

I heard the writing was much like Bill Ayers’.

Now this is a very interesting post. It falls into the category of “surrealism”. Oh, could you please figure out how we should answer Post #5. Thanks, folks.

Prison officials cite specific pages — but not specific passages — in the books that they deem objectionable. They include one page in Obama's 1995 book, "Dreams from My Father," and 22 separate pages in his policy-oriented 2006 book, "The Audacity of Hope." It was not immediately obvious what passages might have been deemed problematic, though nearly half of the pages cited are in a chapter devoted to foreign affairs.

Obama is a FAILURE.

Ahmed Omar Abu Ali is serving a 30-year sentence at the federal supermax prison in Florence, Colo., for joining al-Qaida and plotting to assassinate then-President George W. Bush.

Look for Zero to pardon him soon. I mean, what did he do wrong, really? (YES, /sarc)

"If B. Hussein O.’s books are considered a threat to national security in Muslim terrorist hands, then why isn’t B. Hussein O.?"

I'll digress a bit. I bet one hell of a lot of democratic leaders wince at the thought of having zero around for a minimum of four years. Only the die hard leftest, socialist, communist, are happy the clown got in. He just may be their undoing when the voters go to the polls in 2010 and 2012.
