      Maybe Obama should leave their brainchild, extraordinary rendition, on the books till the whole lot are rounded up and brought to justice.

      Reason enough for me to vite for Obama. My only concern is will the DOJ have any time left to do anything else?

      Wow, pandering to the lunatic fringe, I wonder what his internal polling is telling him?

      Guess labeling millions of small town Americans as Gun-toting Bible thumping Racist is taking a toll.

      Perhaps he's just desperate to change the subject?

        The only crime I can see out of all this is Obama running for president!

          Only a fool believes this.

          And, in case you haven't noticed, the worse things get, the more people DO want and obtain guns, and turn to religion. The old adage, "there are no atheists in a foxhole" seems to apply.

          And calling him a racist is pure prevarication. Pointing out that many people - OF ALL RACES - tend to have apprehension of those different from themselves is not racist; it's the truth. Just because he's 1/2 black & his grandmother's white doesn't make his comments any more racist.

          And judging from many of the posts on here from the likes of aniokly, with "We have been trying to civilize certain segments of society for 50 years" comment in FL Gun Bill, & saintettiene talking about getting illegal aliens to carry equipment, we all know how prevalent racism is on these boards, and it's a very real problem in this country.

            "And calling him a racist is pure prevarication. Pointing out that many people - OF ALL RACES - tend to have apprehension of those different from themselves is not racist; it's the truth."

            "OF ALL RACES - tend to have apprehension of those different from themselves is not racist;"

            And if he had said that he might have had some wiggle room. But that's not what he said, is it.

            "OF ALL RACES" Sorry he said SMALL Towns with no mention of race.

            "tend to have" sorry he said ARE.

            Now do you believe you can psychoanalyze millions of people you have never met and come to an all inclusive gun-toting bible thumping racist?

            Do you believe Obama could do this?

            Apparently Obama thinks he can, that is both arrogant and stupid.

              Truth is he, Obama, was only talking about Democrats that live in small towns, remember its still the primaries not the general election.

              He thinks you democrats are gun-toting bible thumping racist.

              Bet ya didn't even realize that did ya?

                I have to respectfully disagree w/a few of your points:

                >>"OF ALL RACES - tend to have apprehension of those different from themselves is not racist;"

                >>And if he had said that he might have had some wiggle room. But that's not what he said, is it.

                He was using his white grandmother as an example of peoples' apprehension. To limit his comments to ONLY whites seems to be a bit narrow minded, especially when applied to someone who speaks to the ills of racism as a whole.

                And to believe that he's only talking to Democrats is a bit ludicrous. Even tho this is still primary season, this is a national campaign, even international judging from Clinton's & McCain's campaigning in Canada & Israel.

                  Uhm, where in the audio only tape of his San Francisco poll worker training session did he cite his grandmother?

                  The San Francisco audio tape was a "fly on the wall" of what is said and how it's said when the cameras are off. Have you actually listened to it? My guess is you haven't.

                  The charge of racism was his ABOUT the small town Dems in PA.

                  And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they

                  cling to guns (Gun-toting)

                  or religion (Bible thumping)

                  or antipathy toward people who aren't like them (does he mean not white? Claeify)

                  or anti-immigrant sentiment (sure sounds like he's calling them racist)

                  What do Dems in large towns or cities "cling" to when their bitter?

                    Only small town as compared to the rest of the USA is valid. Obama was talking about small town people in PA

                    What all this sounds like is rationalization to support un-supported assumptions.

                    Are you aware that religion and Guns are numbers 1 and 2 of the "Bill of Rights"

                  - continued

                  >>Now do you believe you can psychoanalyze millions of people you have never met

                  No, but we can see trends. And in difficult times, people tend to turn to religion, and in dangerous times (as implied by all the terrorist threats & increased violence) people tend to arm themselves. What, exactly, is wrong with someone pointing this out?

                  >>He thinks you democrats are gun-toting bible thumping racist.

                  This is just a ridiculous comment. But, then again, I've noticed that you like to twist things around to make ludicrous comments like this.

                    Uhm what trend? Please cite the basis for this "trend"

                    How many of the millions of small town people (expanding it) have you talked to that have actually said they were bitter?

                    My guess is not many. Are you ASSUMING all these folks are bitter?

                    Have more churches/place of worship popped up in these small towns?

                    More than could be normal bases on population growth over the last 25 years?

                    "And in difficult times, people tend to turn to religion"

                    How bout gun sales?

                    Has there been an exceptional growth in gun sales in these small towns that is out of sink with America as a whole? Statistics please.

              What do you have against the Constitution and Bill of Rights of the United States of America?

              Before the Conservatives America was a nation of laws and a government of checks & balances.

              Now, we are just hated and mocked.

                  See. That's only logical. We've known for years that the recent Republicans had to run on God, Guns & Gays to win - and everyone knows it, too. When Obama points it out, he's now labeled an elitist.

                  What complete & total BS. He's as much of an elitist as George W Bush is a competent, hard-working, blue-collar average citizen from a poor to moderate income family.

                Obama has to be the biggest fool ever if he thinks he will get Bush on war crimes. I am still laughing about this. He is as likely to get Bush on war crimes as we are to get his pastor on racial hate crimes! I thought he was all about "CHANGE". Does not every new administration accuse or go after the previous...and that is very presumptious thinking he will be the next president. It will probably be the wife of the former boyfriend of Monica Lewinsky. Can't wait for that trainwreck again. By the way, did we ever resolve Clinton's warcrimes in regard to bombing an Iraq aspirin factory?...I know its not fair...just using the same bogus reasoning you are.

                  Of the many missiles Clinton sent into Iraq none were targeting an aspirin factory. That was in the Sudan. Why are you so quick to belive the enemies of the United States when they tell you it was just an aspirin factory.

                  And the answer is--- the situation was resolve and Clinton was not charged with a war crime.
