Barack Obama's brilliant speech regarding race in America
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWe7wTVbLUU
His full speech is very impressive, but it's fairly long, at 37:39.
He should withdraw from the race for president, & resign from the US Senate.
Or switch political parties.
Someone should tell all the White people at the Rev. Wrights congregation that he is racist.
Man, all those people must be stupid. No way a Black guy can be president, because all the Black churches say things that are racist against us poor whites.
He should withdraw from the race for president, & resign from the US Senate.
Switch political parties, ey?
Obama is a racist & a liar. He follows a preacher who hates America, & hates whites. 'Rev.' Wright married the Obamas, & baptized their daughters.
The title of Sen. Obama's book 'THE AUDACITY OF HOPE' was lifted from a 'Rev.' Wright 'sermon/hate speech'.
Michelle Obama speaks the same language as 'Rev.' Wright.
The only reason why Obama is trying to 'distance himself from 'Rev.' Wright is because white voters & the US military found out that Obama has been attending anti-American hate rallies for 20yrs.
He's lying about 'not being there' when 'Rev.' Wright delivered the anti-American hate-filled bullcrap on the Sunday after 9/11. CAN YOU THINK OF ONE PERSON IN THE COUNTRY THAT DIDN'T GO TO CHURCH THE SUNDAY AFTER TUESDAY's 9/11 ATTACKS?
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE OBAMAS PUMPING THEIR FISTS IN 'UNIFYING' AGREEMENT w/the a**hole 'Rev.' Wright.
The possibility of seeing 'Rev.' Wright and Louis Farrakhan in the Obama's 'friends box' on Inauguration Day in January 2009 makes me fuggin' sick.
In 2008, YOU DON'T NEED TO TALK ABOUT A DIVISIVE ISSUE LIKE 'RACE' >>
THERE WOULD BE NO AMERICAN DREAM WITHOUT THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN.
I don't know that I would regard it as political spam - there's very little of the political about it. Not a mention of Sen. Obama's political views, nor those of the Democratic Party in general. Merely a spate of racist hatemongering. (And is it coincidence that this would appear to be a fairly new member, whose name is German for "yes"?)
Oh, BTW, ja, in answer to your supposedly rhetorical question, I can think of quite a few people who didn't go to church the Sunday after 9/11. Me, for one - I was away from my regular church (as was Obama, come to think of it - he was in fracking Springfield, a pretty fair distance from Chicago, as he was in the Illinois legislature at the time) and knew I didn't want to hear the dweeb at my sister-in-law's favorite church rattling on. A large number of Jews, Mormons, Seventh-Day Adventists, Islamics, and athiests, for another.
Now velodog's post, silly as it is, is at least vaguely political...

Obama's best presidential skill is oration. Axelrod writes these soaringly dramatic speeches about American unity, which don't sound anything like Obama when he's interviewed, and then Obama reads those speeches from the teleprompter and voices them with great skill. [Insert swooning]
But whenever Barack doesn't have his trustee teleprompter, he's the cure for insomnia. "Um, we have to, um, pull together as a nation, um, and we, uh, need to remember our history, ah, and of course hope in, ah, the future..." ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...........
I will give him one thing: He pronounces words better than George W. Bush. And Bush would probably be the first to admit that, with a chuckle, if he already hasn't.
But, see, I want more than a president who can read well from a teleprompter. Reading is a good skill. But still, I find myself wanting more.
Excerpt from yesterday's speech:
What the ----? In other words, "Feeeeeeeeel the guilt, White America. Blacks hate living in this country."

How do we know how he works with his staff? Clinton doesn't work as well with hers?

Are you saying that under Obama, we'll have more free choice among healthcare providers? Obama is even further left than Clinton is, and individual freedom above goverment rule has always been the antithesis of what the far left promotes.

According to Marc Ambinder*, Obama wrote the speech by himself.
*Marc Ambinder's bio says "Marc is an associate editor at the Atlantic and a contributing editor to both the Hotline and National Journal, and was, in late 2007, named chief political consultant to CBS News".
