[...] with anti-gay singer Donnie McClurkin. Not only that. As reader ILoveCapitalism pointed out in a recent comment, the Democratic frontrunner refused to have his picture taken with San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom [...]

#24 #25 It is good to see liberals agree about Obamas oratorical skills. Some of his speeches are full of what some might call "blather". Which the listener can interpret any way they wish. It may be gramatical but it is still "blather". Can I get a list of his other accomplishments? Take all the space you need.

Besides, with the jobs Mrs. Orgasma suggested (nursing, teaching, counseling etc.), I thought you needed a degree for. Unless, of course, she meant those folks should be her domestic servants, valets and gardeners etc.

#27 And you don't see Laura running around exclaiming how much America sucks and encouraging people not to bother with college and instead pursue the jobs <i>she</i> thinks they should do. Best Little Whorehouse in Texas: (sigh) I sorta miss Marvin Zindler. See here too.

and PS: At least Obama (and frankly almost any other politician in the country) can create a complete, grammatically correct sentence off the top of his head….unlike our current former governor of Texas.

If only he wouldn’t repeat the same sentence over and over for his cultists.

In a post that’s not even about Bush, Kevin in #24 and #25, has to bring him up. Sounds like some kind of obsession to me.

I guess they’ll still be blaming him for America’s woes when he returns to Texas next year. Or maybe they’ll concentrate their fire on his successor from Arizona.

Seriously, this analogy to a musical Texas governor is pretty lame considering the *real* ex Texas governor we’ve had to put up with for the last 7+years

B Hussein Winfrey is the Change the Jihadis are Hoping for

I wanna know if Obama has ever changed his hope in change. Was it in the past, the present or the future? As president, would he change the past to hope in the future which is now the present and should we feel good about that? Or should we just hope that change in the past will hope for the future?

And if I say HUSSEIN, can I hope that he’ll piss his panties again? He seems to be hoping he can change on that one.

I’ve seen a memo from the Obama campaign about a possible early debate with McCain really getting into the issues Americans care about.
#1 What is hope and who has more hope, McCain or Obama.
#2 Change, who wants it and how much change is good.
#3 Who has the most hope for change, Obama or McCain.
If there is any time left…. does McCain believe that "yes we can"?

The difference is that Obama has nothing to do with Farrakhan.

the more he seems like your average everyday run-of-the-mill politician with a stronger presence and greater rhetorical gifts

I’ve got to disagree with you on that one. Bookending your ghost stories about depression, famine, and 100 years of war with the words "Hope and Change" isn’t anything special or new.

Thanks, but I’ve tried that (sometimes leaving three hard returns between paragraphs)–still publishes as a big, solid rectangle of letters. I don’t know if this makes a difference, but I’m on an iMac and using Safari 3.0.4 (which has had some reported problems).

The way to insert paragraph breaks is to leave an

empty line between the paragraphs. Now if I could only get the blockquote to work again.

#13: I’m looking forward to your comment re Obama and Newsom’s priss-fit. When I heard that Obama had snubbed Newsom, it was like getting a hug from Jesus. I expect it will be the only thing Obama gets right in his campaign. Newsom is a self-righteous, elitist hack that should be shunned by Republicans and Democrats alike, but of course, he was briefly the shining star of the liberals because like all of their overnight sensations, he did something that was illegal, immoral and/or in direct opposition to his duties as an elected public official. Liberals are so dense, they see no problem with the fact that this man became famous only because he did the OPPOSITE of what he was required to do as the City of SFO’s chief executive: enforce the jurisdiction’s laws. P.S. Brendan, if you’re out there, I specifically used the expression "priss-fit" to notify you that I have no intention of submitting to your false accusations of "homophobia" and arrogant demands for other people to censor their speech to accommodate your delicate sensibilities. You and any other politically correct super-tools out there, who strangely think you have the right to tell others what they can and can’t say, need to take your little Taboo buzzers and cram it. In fact, it OFFENDS me that you would go on a website devoted to the discussion of politics and have the nerve to assert that certain words and expressions are off-limits. However, I will admit that it helpfully confirms exactly what we suspected about liberals–they have absolutely no interest in free speech for those who disagree with them. So, thank you for that.

I have a comment, with links, about Obama-Farrakhan and SF Mayor Newsom’s stories of Obama snubbing him (Newsom) for homophobic reasons… I think they’re in moderation… stay tuned.
