Any blocking of Air America?

One would think so, but I can get Al Franken on streaming radio anytime. There is little rhyme or reason I can fathom to the parameters they use for what's acceptable and not.

Only the future will let us know just how those two years affected his belief system.

When we think of Islam we think of a faith that brings comfort to a billion people around the world. Billions of people find comfort and solace and peace. And that's made brothers and sisters out of every race -- out of every race.

You may be right, Thomas, but then, again, you may not be. I have no scientific data to prove this but I am always very very suspicious of people who have come from a broken home. You are, of course, aware of the effect abandonment has on a child. You know, I am sure, that Senator Obama's Kenyan father deserted the family when Senator Obama was quite young and that Senator Obama was raised by his Caucasian mother and grandparents.

Such events cannot, in my opinion, fail to be of supreme importance in one's psyche. We can only hope that they have somehow been transmuted into positive forces. But, remembering Clinton's horrible home life and then viewing his psychological failings, I must remain distrustful!!

This from someone who thinks the current moron in chief (a guy from a solid home) is something other than an incompetent, moron.

Look at the bright side, Frank. BernardR's worst fear about Obama is that once in office, he might turn out as bad as Bill Clinton. Can you think of a tamer horror vision for swing voters and independents? If you do, I'd like to hear it.

Here is Obama, endlessly hailed as the brightest rising star in the Democratic firmament, delivering (at a closely watched political dinner, with Lieberman's primary opponent, Ned Lamont, sitting in the crowd) a ringing endorsement to his "mentor", Lieberman, Bush's closest Democratic ally on the war in Iraq, and overall pretty much a symbol of everything that's been wrong with the Democratic Party for the past twenty years.

What a slimy fellow Obama is, as befits a man symbolizing everything that will continue to be wrong with the Democratic Party for the next twenty years. Every time I look up he's doing something disgusting, like distancing himself from his fellow senator Dick Durbin for denouncing the torture center at Guantanamo, or cheerleading the nuke-Iran crowd.

The fact is that in America Today, Senator Obama, who,it must be remembered was the President of the Prestigious Harvard Law Review( one needs to be very bright and very people oriented to gain such a post) will be judged in the last resort by the fact that when he was in Hawaii in Elementary School, he attended Schools based on Muslim Education for two years. Senator Obama writes of this in his authobiography. Only the future will let us know just how those two years affected his belief system.

What has the Senator from Illinois done recently for all the poor Blacks in Chicago?

Hey...

...as you folks know, normally I am all over the American conservative movement and agenda...mostly because I consider it to be the most hypocritical, sleazy pocket of dung ever to gain prominence in a free society.


BUT...

...on this occasion I have come to praise them.

I think it is admirable that so many American conservative in this forum have come forward to speak to you good folks...Democrats and liberals...folks whom they normally would not deign to piss on if any of you burst into flames...

...to warn you not to make a mistake and back a candidate who obviously is a very, very weak choice.

And it almost is unnecessary to note that they are doing this despite the fact that it would be to their advantage to have the weakest possible candidate opposing the person they will back just as soon as they are told whom to back.

Damn nice of them!

They could just as easily keep their mouths shut and let you folks do the thing they sense will hurt you most in the 2008 election.

But...they are putting their sense of decency and integrity before expediency to warn you off this terrible mistake.

As I said...damn nice fo them.
