It is amazing to me the way some people think. They cry that racism is being thrown about by some people (especially blacks), when they themselves are doing the very same thing. They cry that the only reason why blacks do support Obama, is because he is in fact, black!
Is there any truth to the fact that blacks do support Obama, yes, there is. If he is the candidate that they want to support, why shouldn't they support him? If he is the candidate in the political party they support, is it so wrong to be behind the candidate they believe in?
I guess they should switch party affiliations just because so many don't believe in anything this candidate, Obama, stands for, and what they the people who support the Republican candidate do, and are crying foul, believe in!
Sure, Obama being black is a trump card, he is different, never has this happened before in our country, so why not?! This would be the reasons why so many of Obama's supporters, support him right? To coin a phrase, we are like sheep!
Bring me arguments about the state of our country and what is going on in our country, and why there should be changes made so that WE ALL can live a better life and whether are not we have to worry about ALL THAT WE HAVE ALL WORKED SO HARD FOR OVER THE YEARS is all going down the toilet!
Don't bring me crap shoot arguments whining about the fact that a candidate is Black, and that he loves to bring this information up himself, and that all he seems to do is say that he is black, when this fact is quite obvious to EVERYONE! What the freck is the really issue here? The fact that so many can't get over the fact that he is the one chosen as the candidate to represent the Democratic party, and he happens to be black?
Or, the fact that the American people are tired of the ruling government and all the crap that they have done over the years that has begun to affect our country? So they want change, and they will have it! Are you going to be effective in your citizenship and go out there and also let yourself be heard, or are you going to stay out of it just because "Obama will get everyone's vote because HE IS BLACK and White America wants to prove that they are not racist and will also vote for him and that is the only reason why they will vote for him"?
You who believe such crap are doing a disservice to yourself and to your fellow Americans! It is bullshit crap like this that makes us all look bad and it is time to get up off of the toilet or take a shit and do or say something more constructive! Not come at me with crappy arguments that is riddled with holes!
For God's sake wake up people! Of course we all will notice that Obama is Black, just the same that we all notice that McCain is so much older and looks like a hard wind would blow him over! Now was that not me being discriminative about McSame...I mean, McCain's age?! [and wans't that me being rude and disrespectful in calling him McSame?!] We all can do it, we just chose to take the higher road and be respectful!
I am worried about the economy, the fact that gas prices are so high, that the boomerang effects from that has cost jobs, higher prices in the supermarkets, housing slumps all over! People are out there hanging on to their life and livihood for dear life, and some of you only have stupid arguments to insult our intelligence!
Oh GROW UP!
AD, I wished I had written that site down, but it was late in the evening, almost midnight and Mozilla, that I use at home, has not been customized yet so I cannot copy and paste as I do at work (now) and at the moment, searching for it is going to be too much time and I have to run out of here in five mins. However, you and Leauki are asking for examples, that page had them, things he achieved during his time in Illinois and his involvement with the diffent organizations. Google it, I am not ashamed to say that is what I did because I don't keep information like that memorize! [I'm talking my 43 year old brain that is already crap filled with kids, work, family and other stuff that are more pressing! ]
I also have a feeling that no matter what my answers are, no matter if I write something that would present my point, it wouldn't be enough (Leuki) so I won't bother to go down that road. However, you can be a doll and find the infor and let us see, or you can be less of a doll and continue to rub your points home of not being able to find anything to substantiate what I am saying.
Either way, we will continue on!
Hey Dude, anytime! You are among the few around here I enjoy a good debate with!
Newsflash! The Doc has been scooped! lol
Anybody?
Actually this was aimed at someone else!
ID I'm sure someone will bite if they so incline! Didn't we discuss that already though?
Enjoy!
The good news - almost anyone Obama chooses as VP will have more experience than himself - now that's a plus....right?
Me too, but it is a long and lonely and winding road out there!
Isn't this what a great leader does?
I don't think he was justifying the bail out of the lenders. Bail-outs are bad, plain and simple. The market needs to correct itself and its needs to do so without the government sticking its nose in. Will a market correction be painful? Yes, but it will be faster like pulling off a bandaid really quick, when the government sticks its nose into it it's like pulling that bandaid off one hair at a time by extending the painful period.
The main point to remember when making any major purchase is buyer beware. Why should I be penalized because someone else made a bad decision? People being "easily duped" is a cop-out. I read a story of a woman who was getting a loan to buy a $300K home, she made around $40K/year and when she was in the loan officers office the guy said "Congratulations you now work for me." He listed her as an employee of his so that he could get her salary up to qualify for the loan. This should have sent red flags off in anyones head but she let it happen because she wanted the house. As of the time the article was written (a few months ago) her rates had reset and she couldn't make the payments anymore (the mortgage had jumped up to like 5 grand a month) and she was going to lose the house. Why should I be penalized because someone made such an obvious mistake like this one?
I don't mind there being a little safety net for people who fall on hard times, like getting laid off and not being able to find work, but to bail people out because they made poor choices just doesn't make sense.
Some of us average joes work for those oil tycoons and it's kinda nice to be doing alright for a change. I didn't here you libs crying when oil was $13 a barrel and we were standing in the unemployment line. What goes around comes around.
hussein is going down, mark my words.
Shouldn't that be Bin Laden is going down.....it is about dang time he did! AT the rate that some of you find time to hate, turn the hate on the right people!
Good for you that things have turned around! Perhaps some of those leftys were right behind you hiding in line uh?!
