Good point, RC. The essential question is whether you believe America is part of the problem or part of the solution. Most believe the latter. Obama seems to believe the former and during his adult life he’s surrounded himself with people who most definitely do.

The thing that has really irked me, is calling Bill Clinton a racist. How can any self respecting AA even hint at that.

If you look at the recent comments BO is a far bigger race card player than anyone in this election. I listened to the NYT writer(?) defend his calling the JMc celebrity ad racist. He must own his own Kool Aid stand. What BS.

beebop,

In the early 60s on the corny “Ed Sullivan Show” (ask your mom) there was an enterprising young actor named Ronald Reagan who appeared at every commercial advertising GE lightbulbs!

The military establishment is GE and vice-versa! And GE wants Obama as President. He voted in favour of the Bush-Chenney nuclear bill! Not to mention in favour of early release for sex offenders and allowing sex shops near schools in the 90s in Ill. after knocking Alice Palmer off ballot and stealing her election!

What a thugster….at least Ronnie had REAL vacuous charm…

McCain campaign just sent me an offer for the tire gauge. Any donation of $25 or more gets you one. Am getting it for my car dealership since they hate him as much as I do.

Yesterday Daschle was on the teevee, can’t remember who he was up against…they put up the quote “I have become the symbol….” and Daschel brazenly denied that Barack ever says “I”. I hoped they would put up the tape but they didn’t. Disinformation seems to be part of their modus operandi.

We should all buy one and send them to the DNC and include a little note, ” The “ONE” said we can save the earth and the economy and all the oil we will ever need. I did as I was told and rushed out and bought one. Since I really think he needs it more than I do, this is my donation to the DNC. You can use it to save the oil, but I would make sure that it works first, and seeing that Barack Obama’s head looks like it is about to implode, you have my permission to try it out on him first.”

Not so fast, “Officer”:

Main Entry: ir·re·gard·less
Function: adverb
Pronunciation: “ir-i-’gärd-l&s
Etymology: probably blend of irrespective and regardless
: REGARDLESS
usage Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that “there is no such word.” There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.

This is from the Merriam-Webster Dictionary.

I agree. It goes after both the media and the Obama camp.
