Obama SINGS!!!!

Jeremiah was a bigot
Was a good friend of mine
I never understood a single word he said
But I helped him a-with his whine
And he always bitched some mighty fine whine
Singin’...

Joy to the world
All minority boys and girls now
Dump all the whities in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

Obama’s Philadelphia speech — a theatrical masterpiece — will probably reassure most Democrats and some other Obama “...supporters. They will undoubtedly say that we should now “move on,” even though many Democrats have still not yet moved on from George W. Bush’s 2000 election victory.

Like the Soviet show trials during their 1930s purges, Obama’s speech was not supposed to convince critics but to reassure supporters and fellow-travelers, in order to keep the “useful idiots” useful.”

Right on.

Obama is a myth. That's why his candidacy has been so powerful. Myths appeal to the unconscious - to things that human beings seek in search of meaning. They're not rationally explicable. That's the rationale behind Obama's campaign. People read themselves and their deepest yearnings into him and he becomes whoever they want him to be.

osamabama is a racist and bigoted hate-monger and he surrounded himself with new family that feels the same.

It doesn't matter whether Obama was sitting with the congregation when Wright made racist comments.

Obama
1) knows Wright is racist and
2) says Wright is too old to change his racist ways.

We don't know what goes on in Obama's mind but there's no doubt he is by certitude and in terms of how he looks at the world - a leftist. He is not one of us.

If nothing else, Obama's pastor may have provided an answer to something I've been thinking about lately. I'm sure some here have seen the anti-war people displaying their smug signs with "Who would Jesus kill." If I understand the message of Wright correctly, Jesus would kill Americans. "The chickens are coming home to roost." Wright states this in his capacity as a Christian pastor and he referenced 9/11 among other things.

I have wondered if the moonbats are going to post the other unanswered question. Who would Muhammed kill? And for that matter, who would Muhammed spare? And to carry it a bit further, is Wright suggesting by implication, that Muhammed is one of the chickens coming home to roost in America?

Obama’s grandma got run over by a political speech.

He was hyped by MSM and the Rats as the racial healer, when in fact Obama is nothing more than a racial divider and race pimp just like JJ,Sharpton and others.

Just a slicker version of ol' Wright. He figured out how to drop the unwanted racial baggage. But he holds the same political views about America as his now infamous mentor.

Thomas Sowell would win the debate hands down

"Shelby Steele depicts Barack Obama as a man without real convictions"

Senator Joe Lieberman said that what Obama is lacking is a willingness to take on the core constituents of the Democratic party, specifically Moveon.org, the Teachers Union and the Antisemitism within the African American community at large.

He has been unwilling to reach across the isle in the Senate during his 3 1/2 years in Washington DC. He has also failed to distinguish himself from the pack of candidates for the Democratic Party's nomination. He, like all of the rest, refused to debate on the FOX News Channel. If he is afraid to take a lead on that, how can he be expected to stand up to our real enemies?

This does not make him attractive as a candidate for the POTUS, especially when we have a struggle for our very survival going on.

Does anyone remember the “Omen” trilogy? I see a link between Damien Thorn and OsamaObama. Does anyone else?

And guess who Lieberman is backing for President. He thinks the Dem contenders don't have the "right stuff."
