    Another Liberal site

    It's amazing how the press can mamipulate anything. Madden your article would lead one to believe everthing seen on the internet about Obama and his wife is basically a lie. So here's some questions for you liberals that post your crap in Salon.

    So let's see it's on the internet Obama is the most liberal Senator in Congress, and will raise taxes if elected, as proven by his voting record. Is that true or not true?

    Internet says Obama has literally no experience running anything, why, because he's young and just starting out in politics. Is that true or not?

    Internet says Obama has a muslim name, muslim family, and muslim ties, and he would stand with them, as so stated in his book. Is that true or not true?

    It's on the internet Obama attended a racist church and was friends with a racist reverand, as seen on video numerous times. Is that true or not true?

    It's on the internet Obama's wife stated she's finally proud of America, as seen on national televison. Huh, why would she say that. Is that true or not true?

    I'll tell you what is true, Obama's wife has been put on the back of the bus by the democratic party, and told to keep her mouthe shut. Amazing she has totally dissappeared from sight with the press. Is that true or not true?

    It's on the internet Obama made some rather racist remarks in his book. Is that true or not true?

    It's on the internet Obama appeared at a white evagelist church in an attempt to get white votes, and of course he was a Christian quoting scripture. Is that true or not true?

    The man has a silver tongue and no character.
