Obama has been the subject of attacks and emails for a long time now, but his plunge in popularity started after his horrible FISA vote and gets worse every time he moves to the center. It is hard to be very excited about Obama these days.
For those who say that Obama's move to the center was some wise ploy to get votes that progressives are too narrow minded to understand, I have to point to him falling behind McCain as proof that moving to the center was a bad idea.
The biggest racism card in this Country is the press. Millions of whites and blacks live in the same neiborhoods, go to the same schools, play sports together, shop at the same stores, socialize, attend churches, and frankly get along as friends. Yet the radical blacks and whites seem to get the limelight with the press leading everyone to believe racism is worse than ever. While I'm not foolish enough to believe that racism is dead, it has progressed to the point where the good should be fed to the public by the press not the bad, and you will find the bad will die into the sunset. The proof lies in the fact that Obama is running for President and has a good chance to win, and further proof is the Olympics where race makes absolutely no difference. I love watching the Americans, and the way they speak of their Country, whether they are black or white what difference does it make, they are Americans. As for Obama's wife, she is a lucky lady, married to a Presidental candidate, attended the finest school, and living the American dream. She has no right to complain about anything, and that's why she has been put on the back of the bus by the democratic party, so she won't make another dumb statement.
I much prefer the word "debagged" which involved removing a man's trousers as a joke. Back in the l920s a loose type of trousers were/was called "Oxford bags" and during the inter-war years there was a lot of fun and frolic at British universities. This too was the world of American author, F. Scott Fitzgerald but now universities in the United States seem to produce nothing but pedants, poppinjays and PC types - incredibly boring. Forget about "debunking anti-Obama e-mails" but find the authors and debag them or you could debug them if you have some stocks of DDT.
According to (British) Channel 4 News this evening, McCain is debagging Barack and also Mr. Tingle,with the quivering leg, because now the man supposed to have Alzheimer's Disease (while learning off all the answers while outside "the cone of silence" at Saddleback) is now ahead in the polls. Wait a minute. It's probably those PUMAS who weren't too madly keen on the tactics used during the Primary and the vicious assaults on womanhood by the "highly-educated" (laugh) Obama supporters. Then there are those blue-collar "heavily Catholic" types, as mentioned by Mike Madden in War Room. I bet there's nothing those primitives would like better than to debag Barack. America's answer to Rasputin, the holy savant, should be sent up there to convert them but alas! he's on another continent now, having been thrown under the bus but nipping away slick as a whistle.
I should have written "something" but I hope my apostrophes are OK.
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.
The comments section of Salon used to be one of my favorite places to go for either more information or different points of view on an article's subject matter. Often the letters contained more value than the actual articles.
Sadly, Salon's letters section has attracted a bunch of moronic, know-nothing hate mongers from the lunatic fringes of the radical right who apparently have nothing better to do than spend their days hopping from site to site and attempting to engage otherwise intelligent, thoughtful folk (from both the left and the right) in flame wars, and making the comments sections virtually unreadable.
More and more web sites have instituted a click box "Ignore this person" in their comments section. I certainly wish Salon would do the same. The feature could be improved by adding "Ignore this person and replies to their comments" option to also skip over those otherwise thoughtful and civil commenters who are naive enough to respond to their noxious flame bait posts.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
