IT'S EVERYWHERE
[Read the article: Dolores Huerta: "Como se llama" Obama?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The Obama campaign wouldn't renounce the distortion, lies, and so-called "miscommunication" being perpetuated in his name? No big surprise here. I've been saying he and his campaign are not any different no matter how many times he says the words "hope" and "change" in his stump speech.

Tell Michael Gordon...
[Read the article: Michael Gordon "reports" on the "only serious" Iraq option: Staying forever]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]that HE should go to Iraq and STAY there for the rest of his life, and he should take the Bushes and the Bush offspring, his own offspring and family members, and those of Cheney, Rumsfield, Rice, Wolfowitz, and anyone else who think that Iraq should be the second home of the United States.
How do you go from "should not have even been there" to "we should stay forever?"

NOBODY OWNS IT!
[Read the article: Who owns the moon?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]No one owns the planets and it should stay that way! I don't care how much energy is on the moon, either we share it to eliminate the problems here on this planet - or we leave it alone!
I'm sick of the war-mongering, greed, and pollution on THIS planet - Earth. Corporate piggies are no more reliable in taking care of anything than governments might be, but atleast government ownership might mean that everyone benefits equally from whatever is there to be gained.
Tell that jerk that just because he writes a few letters to someone at the U.N., and doesn't get a reply, it doesn't mean squat! Happens to me all the time.

Sellout? Nope.
[Read the article: Clarence Thomas is not a sellout]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Clarence Thomas a sell-out? No, he's a Republican and everyone knows that Republicans have no use for any government program that benefits the majority of Americans, including blacks. They only care about taking advantage of whatever taxpayer-funded perk they can secure for themselves, their families, and their friends (mostly corporate, by the way). And the rest of us? Oh, well, we can go to hell.
Look at where the GOP stands on most everything, including affirmative action. It just makes the argument of eliminating affirmative action more palatable coming from a black Thomas, doesn't it? And of course, typical of most Republicans who get where THEY want to go after taking advantage of whatever they can, Thomas bad mouths a government program and then call to get rid of it lest others become...what?...like him? Oh, perish the thought!
"A high-tech lynching?" Weren't those Thomas' racially charge words while he was under scrutiny for past sexual harrassment and confirmation to the U.S. Supreme Court? Did anyone else find it laughable when Thomas plucked a page right out of the Karl Rove Primer For Republicans In Trouble? "Attack them as being something that you already are."
Nope, Thomas isn't a sell-out. He's a Republican who will do and say anything in order to get his fat ass ahead and in power. Not everything has to do with such lofty intellectual concepts as blacks selling out. Human behavior isn't that complex for most.

OH MY GOD!
[Read the article: Barack Obama: "Committed Christian -- Called to Bring Change"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Man, God must be gagging at this one! Who's blacker? Who's richer? Who's whiter? Who's more Christian? Who's on God's side? Whose side is God On? Who's more conservative? Who's more progressive? Who's more prepared? Who has better looking hair? Who's more hawkish? Who's more sanctimonious? Who's more self-righteous? Who's more hypocritical.
Is it time for high school to be over yet? I feel like I'm an unwitting participant of the political version of "Who's Most Likely To Succeed" for the yearbook.
Now, suddenly the guy is "called?" Well, I figured him to have a Messiah complex anyway. Oh pleeeeeeze, does this drama have an ending yet?

Obama All About Something New? I Don't Think So.
[Read the article: The battle for Nevada]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Obama and his people sound, look, and act more like nasty ass Republicans than Democrats. And is this the face of "change" and "hope?" Damn, I hope not. That looked and sounded more like people who wanted to win at all costs -and what's "new" about that?
Obama and his campaign needed to get those union reps under control or risk alientating voters. They didn't - and they did.
The guy can't even bring a Caucus room full of Democrats together - let alone a country! LMAO What a joke.
P.S. John Edwards didn't have the money to push his people to the caucuses. That's why he showed minimum support. Hardly typical though of those who support him.
