<quoted text>Reverend Wright's sermons were the "Freudian slips" that showed what Mr. Obama listened to for twenty!! years. No one willingly listens week after week to radical thoughts unless they find them intriguing and/or entertaining!
But according to Obama he never heard Rev Wright say anything bad.

Presumably the reverand prepaired two sermons every Sunday and had an Obama watch at the doors of the church to alert him when Barack was in the building, so that he could deliver the milder message instead of the insulting one.

That explains why after twenty years of Sundays Obama was shocked, SHOCKED I TELL YOU!, to learn that is pastor is a fruitcake.

message to the Liberals of America.

If for one moment you think this nation will elect a Elitist black man or an Opportunist white female as President of the United States of America, then you got too many rocks in your box.

Come November an old worn out brain dead white man will be elected and it will be your own damn fault. Why couldnt you come up with someone 'centered' in American Values instead of the leftist of the left. You blew it again !

I'm a neurosurgeon/underwear model with an IQ of 201. I got my undergrad degree at Harvard (with a major in economics and a minor in cello) and my Masters at Princeton. I'm 5' 10", 130 lbs., 26-24-32, and a natural blonde and Sagittarius to boot. I like hiking, rollerblading, bubble baths, world peace and long walks on the beach. I started my own internet business and sold it to Microsoft for Billions. I'm in the islands on my yacht right now even though my wireless seems to be picking up it's signal from Chicago. I unequivocally suport Barack Hussein Obama.

You people are so funny.

Yes, I am happy to have been on Bush's team the past 8 years. I have become relatively affluent, thanks to his tax cuts which motivated me to work harder; I feel safe since the 9/11 attacks, no thanks to liberals who tried to block every law that would help root out terrorists; and I have the freedom to choose what type of health care I would like and not have it forced on me.
I am doing well because I am not in debt, I don't live beyond my means, and despite the rise in gasoline and natural gas ( caused by liberal eco freaks and their anti-anything energy policies), I don't drive unless I absolutely have to.(Work) Other than the Bush tax cuts, which have allowed me to keep more of my money, the President usually doesn't effect my life either way. At least when a conservative is in office. Under Billary or Hussein Obama, I would have to give back some of my hard earned money and they are looking for me, and all other hard working citizens, democrat or republican, to subsidize universal health care for people too lazy to work hard, improve themselves and get a job with health benefits. They also want to provide health care for illegals, babies born to people who can't control their reproductive organs and any other cretin that longs for the gov't to help them keep up their prescription drug habit. So yeah, I will take 4 more years of republican rule, thank you. As for you, you can continue to live off the public dole and pray that a Dumocrat gets in so you can live off of the hard work of others for the forseeable future. Dunce.

You want government health care? Go to Canada and wait 10 months for somebody to look at your hemmorhoids.
Sorry, Bill. You're not a dummy. You simply have a different political worldview than Democrats do. You think it's not the government's responsibility to take care of its citizens, especially those who have a very difficult time taking care of themselves. You think it's OK that the US has one of the most deplorable health care situations in the developed world. That's fine with you.

Unlike many of the posters here, you have an actual reason to not support Obama that is grounded in policy, not in absurd notions of him not being patriotic enough, or being a secret muslim, or being too black, or too inexperienced. These are stupid reasons held by stupid people. You have your own reasons, and you're obviously intelligent.

I don't fault you for your views. I just have a different view, that a country as prosperous as the United States should take care of its own people and not allow them to suffer because of the tremendous disparities in wealth and power that capitalism inherently creates. I believe in regulated markets, because free markets benefit so few at the expense of so many. Most Americans should agree with me, but many of them have been sold a bill of goods from republicans that completely exploits them.

Social issues are one of these tools of exploitation (why is abortion still legal? The GOP campaigned on it huge in 2000 and won a majority of congress as well as the presidency. Why didn't they make good on their campaign promises?). The American dream is another ... how many poor people have delusional dreams about winning the lottery or somehow striking it rich? Most of them will never make it, but they'll vote Republican anyway. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

We have a choice in this country ... we can either raise the standard of living for lots and lots of people at the expense of those who can afford to live on a little less, or we can completely eviscerate the middle class and divide the country between the 5% haves and the 95% have-nots. That's what the GOP has enabled for the past 8 years, and that's what McCain will continue.

And by the way, if we don't fix our education system and completely shift the way in which Americans approach education, we'll be globally irrelevant in 50 years. Do you want to leave that to the American public to get off their stupid, fat, complacent cans or do you want the government to invest in our future by educating our future?

Bill, with all due respect, the gist of what I hear from Obama and his wife is that they want to raise the bar for what Americans expect of themselves and of their country. There's nothing more patriotic than that.

I concur whole heartedly! I have some college, a 5 year technical degree, and a moderately high IQ & I will not vote for a liberal socialist like him.

Flyntons Media - what a demeaning description of
the salt of the earth folks.

My way.
Another means to tell a story of an America Era to be, like none other. Availing of sites
that facilitates the posting of comments. My views and snippets of news to communicate
the urgency of NOW. As like Sen Kennedy - do not pick such a disruptive couple they will
be a distraction. You need to choose a lady of substance Sibalius (phonetic) perhaps.
After O'Reilly's Daddy dearest interview of McCain I know this hero will not cut the mustard
with his he he he-ing and his annoying whistle as he talks. I trust American not being
foolish when it comes to November. I also realize you have to walk that tightrope again
as you had to, with Hillary.

KYers
Its over - don't waste WVers time with false promises NYers have heard time after time. How demeaning that she brags on her following as being uneducated blue collar types - Thank god we have such hard workers to help America to be what she needs to be and will continue being like never before. A new page to boggle the mind of the people of our planet. And it came to pass a prophet came forth to lead us to greatness unimaginable.

Makes no sense to waste one's vote on a divisive panderer. Those in the know, realize its about time to stop messing with that wild eyed female George Forman whose plans would drain all the juice from our steak. Third termer Billy salivating at the thought of another $109,000,00 coming to the faustian couple.

"Our people, I think, recognize the enthusiasm and vitality behind Senator Obama's campaign," he said in a statement. "The election is over, everybody knows that. Obama has won," said Vernon Watkins, one of the two Californians.

"After careful consideration, I have reached the conclusion that Barack Obama can best bring about the change that our country so desperately wants and needs," said Payne, who in a statement said that Clinton is a good friend and he still holds her in high regard.

the race card played by the clintons, surprise. surprise. who woulda thunk that.
Why would Obama have to do that? He's got people like you and the person thought up this poll to do it for him.
Are you saying that there is no race card inherent in this pole?

I posted this before. The poll should have been reversed. Did Obama hurt less-educated white?
Remember? ELITIST!

It totally amazes me that facts are seemingly being ignored by voters. Obama is not a knight in shining armor. He is arrogant and untruthful. He promises change that he cannot deliver. As a (100%) service connected disabled Veteran I take pride in my country, I stand and put my hand on my heart whenever the Pledge of Allegiance is said or the National Anthem is played, Obama says he does not like the words. I fought for his right to say those things, however, I would never accept it from a prospective Commander in Chief. Veteran’s Unite!! This man is DANGEROUS!!!

I'm with you, Bill, as an 11 1/2 year veteran myself. Thank you for your service, and for THINKING about our country first.

Whoever started this post is a racist.

Obama is a knee-ger psychopath. And his supporters are his victims. Did the CIA assassinate President John Kennedy? Well I hope and pray to God that Obama get assassinated, too. He is a evil man.

Agreed! Keep letting the party go further left and keep losing the Whitehouse.

All I hear in complaints and bitterness from those around Obama, including his scowling wife.

I think they are surrogates who are out there to be the heavies and make Obama appear more reasonable.

Obviously, lower IQ voted for Bush, because they kinda feel that rich and intelligent people should rule the country. That is history.

Oh Donnie, purveyor of wisdom, please tell us how Democratic policies have led to these "realities" of high fuel costs, lowered international standing, immigration problems, and the fact that government spending is currently at its highest levels ever.
Please, oh wise one Donnie, please enlighten us with your careful and insightful powers of observation. What Democratic policies have you observed that have led to these problems? I'm just DYING to know!
If you were really dying to know, you would already know by now.
