Of one thing I am certain; Obama will be a much better CIC than Bush. Well, actually, almost anybody would be better than Bush.
c.i. that's like saying a cat will drink a saucer of milk....
Since I am not running for office I can admit that I am, FOR THE MOST PART, in agreement with the "inflammatory" remarks of Rev. Jeriamiah Wright. We ARE reaping what we have sown. But that does not mean that Rev. Wright and I are anti-American; it means that we demand that OUR America be right, not EITHER right or wrong.
I don't know how Obama, Clinton or McCain think and feel. Being politicians they can't and won't say.
But I'm very glad I am not voting for Wright. As a moralist he is right; as a politician he would be dumb.

The meme that Clinton has won the 'big states' and that matters is ridiculous. Obama is out-polling her in pretty much every state that she has won so far in matchups with McCain in the general.

But don't you want just a bit more from your candidate than to be able to say that he or she would be 'better than Bush'?
ALL the candidates (with the exception of nader) would be better then Bush. By a lot. But Obama and Clinton's politics are far preferable.

Tis true, we are indeed reaping what we have sown.

Nader wouldn't be better than Bush?
Don't know if this is the one cyclo meant - but
HERE is the link to the "Rasmussen Daily Presidential Tracking Poll".

...And since I'm not runnier either, as a Black person, nothing Rev. Jerimiah said is a lie, either! As a Black, it's what your parents teach you, about whites, in general. After 450 years in this country, Blacks still haven't gotten the so-called "rights and priviledges" whites ALWAYS enjoy, yet they are quick to preach democracy, but just for themselves and no on else! Inflammatory? The crap the skin-heads and the KKK preach, are inflammatory. A Black Preacher warning other Blacks what whites, are not! Play a speech and ask yourself, are we this way? If you can say no, I have a bridge, I want to sell you! Okay, flame on!

I'm sorry. Whether this is for real or not, I laughed out loud. It does pretty much sum up the absurdity of Pastor Wright's whole rationale expressed in his spiel.

Oh, come on, Walter. That was, like
two clicks away. You really can't expect people to do that much fact checking. Too much effort.
Seriously.
Sorry. I will never do it again
Why should anybody 'check it out' when the issue of whether it is real or not doesn't matter one whit? I swear, some of you Europeans are so damn tunnel visioned, you don't seem to be capable of seeing humor when it slams you in the face.
Hmm, most of us are on weekend leave from the annual tunnel-syndrom therapy.

Was that supposed to be humorous? I can't really tell.....
