    Obama has also opened the door for African American politicians to be seen as lying, shiftless, corrupt, criminal, not really American, hated by their mother, communist, socialist, egotist, messianic, Christian in a weird way, secretly Muslim, terrorist, at least sorta chummy with a terrorist, America-hating, never writing anything for the Harvard Law Review, racist, wanting to tax your income, IRA, home, water, and even this post, inarticulate and just generally saying "uh" too much.

          Just shows your inexperience at remembering things, however your experience at forgetting things has grown exponentially!

          If I remember correctly.

            Think you you forgot snobbish. Did he invite any of us to his wine and cheese party? No! And merely because nobody has enough money to donate.

              No I think it is because there is more than enough whining going on already. And anyway McCain is already suppling the "cheese" after all he did pick Palin. And that's a stinky bit of cheese.

                        And you can take one wing off a horse fly and it will go in circles...can't fly though. I think I had better squash it.

              I like it when Obama says "uh." It gives me hope that he's going to say "uh" let's think this through before taking any action Bush has taken in the past 8 yrs.
              I am going to call it the "uh" factor for why we should all vote for Obama.

                      As the song goes,

                      Roses are red
                      Violets are purple
                      Sugar is sweet
                      And so's maple surple.
