Obama Makes History

But he will take us more into socialism . We will have even higher
energy prices under his plan. He will raise taxes . He is inexperienced
to deal with foreign affairs. Because of this , he will not win in November.

and I have to believe I'm not alone in this....is what if he his elected President and something bad happens to him? It would set racial relations in this country back years. I realize that as a country, we need to get over this hurdle and it is a good thing that an African-American has a real chance of leading this country....but, that fear is always in the back of mind when I think about who to vote for.

Obama rama ding dong has problems within his own party that he's going to have to overcome if he wants that prestigious address on Pennsylvania Avenue. While he's probably the only Democrat that could beat Hitlery, he now has to deal with a split party, half of whom don't dare say what's really on their mind. Obama doesn't have to unite these people, but he does have to get them to stop spitting and hissing at each other long enough for Himself to win the election. That won't be easy.

Making things harder is Hitlery, ex-First Lady of All She Surveys. She isn't going to forget this spanking anytime soon, and she'll be out for blood whenever she can draw any. At this point, I bet Hitlery is so angry she'd accept a nomination from the Stupid Party. The one thing I'm betting Hitlery won't accept is the vice president's chair. Pride, you see. You know, I wouldn't trade places with Slick Willy for anything. I'll bet Slick won't see Hitlery in private for six months or more, until he figures she's cooled off a little.

Meanwhile, McCain is hitting a pretty good stride. He doesn't have to worry about a lunatic minister damning America from the pulpit, nor his war record (he's a Veteran, remember? When was the last time Obama called anyone 'Sir'?) and the moonbats gave him an automatic pass with the money pit in Iraq.

He'd be smart to offer Clinton the VP slot. And she'd be smart to accept it. Together, they would certainly wipe-out McBush.

I can't stand Clinton or McCain (they 'mis-speak, lie, have said stupid things & I don't trust them) - but Obama lost me on his lies. The Blade ran an editorial by Jack Kelly about this recently - posted below. Why do they LIE? I won't vote at all before I'll vote for anybody who deliberately lies to win points with people (and keeps lying). That Obama is black has never been an issue for me, no more than being a woman has been an issue for me about Hillary. Their sex & race has absolutely nothing to do with anything. What disappoints me, is that Obama & Hillary have both screwed up as bad as any candidate before them - or worse, by simply not being honest, and weaving these bogus stories (lies), and they keep re-inventing them as they get found out, trying to cover their asses (tongues). I've been saying for years, that if Colin Powell ran for president, I"d vote for him in a minute. And he is a black man. Be very careful about casting votes for a candidate based only upon what their sex or race is. Yes, it may be exciting to have the first black man or white woman as president in our lifetime. But those aren't reasons good enough to vote for them, if their character is flawed. And both Clinton & Obama have shown their characters to be very flawed - they keep on lying, and speaking in platitudes with no substance about how they'd get the job done. McCain is no better. Below the Jack Kelly article about Obama -

The Blade's Jack Kelly had an interesting editorial on Obama. Makes me doubt the man even more.

Give Obama the potato test

HE GENERATES even more gaffes than Dan Quayle. "We have not exhausted our nonmilitary options in confronting the Iranian threat; in many ways, we have yet to try them," Sen. Barack Obama says on his Web site. "If Iran abandons its nuclear program and support for terrorism, we will offer incentives like membership in the World Trade Organization."

It was Albert Einstein who first defined insanity as "doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

"Perhaps Mr. Obama is unaware that one of [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad's first acts was to freeze Tehran's efforts for securing WTO membership because he regards the outfit as 'a nest of conspiracies by Zionists and Americans,'•" wrote Amir Taheri in the Wall Street Journal this week.

In 2006, Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice offered Iran a package of incentives including "improving Iran's access to the international economy, markets, and capital, through practical support for full integration into international structures, including the WTO."

Mr. Obama can escape Einstein's charge by pleading ignorance. He didn't know about U.S. overtures to Iran, or Mr. Ahmadinejad's rejection of them. But shouldn't a candidate for president know these things?

Last week, I twitted Mr. Obama for saying he'd campaigned in 57 states, for not knowing that his home state of Illinois borders on Kentucky, and for claiming the Cuban Missile Crisis (October, 1962) was defused by President Kennedy's summit meeting with Nikita Khruschchev (June, 1961). Earlier, Mr. Obama said 10,000 people were killed when a tornado struck Greensburg, Kansas last year (the death toll was 12), and assumed Afghans speak Arabic (they don't).

After Mr. Obama took opposite sides on successive days last week on whether Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez should be engaged or isolated, ABC's Jake Tapper described him as "a one-man gaffe machine." And that was before his Memorial Day twofer.

Speaking in New Mexico, Mr. Obama seemed not to understand Memorial Day honors those who died in war, and claimed his uncle was one of the soldiers who liberated the Auschwitz concentration camp. Since Auschwitz was liberated by the Red Army, and Mr. Obama's mom was an only child, this is unlikely.

When this misstatement was spotted by bloggers, the Obama campaign said the senator had in mind his great uncle, Charles W. Payne, who, the campaign said, had served in the 89th Infantry Division, which liberated Ohrdruf, a slave labor camp that was a satellite of Buchenwald. This explanation has satisfied most journalists. But Charles W. Payne is not listed on the roster of the 89th Infantry Division, perhaps because the Kansas State Historical Society says Charles W. Payne entered the Navy on Nov. 10, 1942.

Mr. Obama has told the Auschwitz story before. But in an Oct. 2, 2002 speech, the protagonist was his grandfather:

"My grandfather signed up for the war the day after Pearl Harbor was bombed, fought in Patton's army," Mr. Obama said then. "He saw the dead and dying across the fields of Europe; he heard the stories of fellow troops who first entered Auschwitz and Treblinka."

(Stanley Dunham entered the Army on June 18, 1942. Treblinka, which, like Auschwitz, is in Poland, was liberated by the Red Army.)

It isn't a good idea to take what Mr. Obama says at face value. As facts emerged, he issued eight different descriptions of his relationship with the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. The "uncle at Auschwitz" story might be again revised.

Dan Quayle was just 41 and looked younger when George H. W. Bush plucked him from relative obscurity to be his running mate. Journalists portrayed Mr. Quayle as inexperienced and not too bright, an image cemented on June 15, 1992, when, while officiating at a spelling bee in Trenton, New Jersey, he corrected a 12-year-old's spelling of "potato," telling the boy there was an "e" on the end.

Mr. Quayle was wrong, but not terribly. "Potatoe" was an accepted spelling through the 19th century, and the error was on a cue card provided by school authorities. But journalists needed no further proof that Mr. Quayle was a dunce.

Journalists have been more kind to Mr. Obama, though his gaffes exceed those of Mr. Quayle, and he has less experience. Mr. Quayle had served four years in the House and eight in the Senate before becoming vice president.

Still, the question arises: Can Barack Obama spell "potato?"

If I was O'bummer I sure wouldnt ask her to be his running mate!!

Hillary wants to be president and at this point the fastest way would be to become the VP and then bump off the prez.

I dont know what "fostered" that thought...

This link is pretty fun---you can pick Obama's running mate. It's set up like the March Madness brackets.
