  What No Star For "Obama Supports Greek Racism"?

  Hey Mike Madden, the poster "Timbuktom" got a star when he responded to my post that "Obama Supports Greek Racism", but my original post? nada. I smell a plot! Star me for F*** sake!

  If you go to my blog and search on "Oprah, Obama Will Disappoint You" you will see the same analysis in Dec 11, 2007 that David Brooks had today. I am now accepting offers from the New York Times opinion page.

  New York Times,June 20, 2008

  "Barack Obama is the most split-personality politician in the country today. On the one hand, there is Dr. Barack, the high-minded, Niebuhr-quoting speechifier who spent this past winter thrilling the Scarlett Johansson set and feeling the fierce urgency of now. But then on the other side, there’s Fast Eddie Obama, the promise-breaking, tough-minded Chicago pol who’d throw you under the truck for votes."

  In my other letter to the Salon you will see "star worthy" posts on Iraq, Iran and "Global Warming"! I am now accepting reporting offers from Salon.

  Mike Madden, I have a 1939 book on the concept of a Balkan Federation by LS Stavrianos. The the gory details of the Greek - Macedonian dispute bored him THEN! What is really interesting to me is why all those journalists (mostly liberal ... but not all) ignore the plight of ethnic Macedonians in Greece ... NOW!

  Why does the State Department report on it, even in the Clinton administration, but not RFE, ICG and IWPR ... to mention only a few.

  I want an answer from you and I want a star for this post!
