Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
Tell me, how are things working out for ya? Pretty cozy? Job hasn't moved over seas yet? Is gas high enough for ya? Any relatives killed over in Iraq lately? Got a young son or daughter you're willing to sacrifice for your maverick man? Yaa-hoo! Get ready for those road trips yall and open up ya gas tanks, cause the straight talker wants to start drilling for oil and it'll be ready in oh, maybe 10 twenty years from now. Panderer! But wait! McCain want to give ya a break on your gas bill for the summer. Wow! A whole 15 cents off a gallon?! Ma pack the bags! We going for a ride! Gee, thanks for the scraps Mr. Mcsame while you fly about in your private jet to where ever the hell you want to go in this world while laughing at us little people because we are just so thrilled to be able to save 20 bucks or so on gas for a couple of months! Look, Barack is NOT a socialist so it's not a problem and as far as I'm concerned, a panderer and a war-monger is far worse. Do you know that George Bush said that there was something romantic about war? (They're one in the same) Now Mccain has said that he never really loved America. Wow! No wonder we are in this mess!

Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
No. My job hasn't moved overseas because made sure to not specialize myself in the job market. I made sure to acquire various marketable skills. Gas prices don't bother me. You go elsewhere in the world, gas has been over $5.00 for years. Paying $3.79 doesn't bother me, because gas is still cheaper here than it is in Germany, England, Japan, South Korea, etc. No kids to sacrifice. McCain said he didn't love America until he had to suffer without it. That means he now has a true appreciation for this country. In the meantime Michelle Obama didn't like the country simply because "people are mean" and didn't appreciate this country until her commie husband got a chance to ruin it. You say Barack is not a socialist, but he is. His wife has already spilled the beans. I'm sure if Barack didn't have such good handlers, he would have spilled them as well.

Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
Wow. Seems you're the only one who ISN'T suffering. Good for you. It amazes me how you can so readily give John Mccain that pass yet want to hold Michelle Obama's feet to the fire over a statement she made that any moron can see was taken completely out of context and twisted around. Seems you are living in a different universe than a whole lot of people because case you haven't noticed, Barack is um...soaring!!! :-) You must have your Tee-vee tuned in on Fox news. Turn it off and do some research for yourself. Get some real news for a change. Normal, rational people can see through the crap. And you thought Rev. Wright was bad? Fox News makes Rev. Wright's church look like the garden of eden as far as I'm concerned. What is it about Barack Obama that you hate him so much? Are you Black? because if you're not, well, that might explain your ignorance. Black people have had to suffer plenty in this country and you can honestly try to justify McCain's statement of not really loving America until he had to suffer without her??! So McCain NOW has a true appreciation America? Oh. Okay. How old are you? Just asking. Also, it's not fair that you keep quoting Michelle Obama wrong. She said for the first time in her adult life time she was really *proud* of her country. Not that she didn't *like* her country. Not proud of. Not liking. Two different things. Neither one of them as bad as what John McSame admitted. I can love something or someone yet not be proud of them for various reasons, especially when those reason's are justified. Hell yeah people are mean! But for twenty five plus something years, John McSame never really LOVED America. That's a shame!! Black folks on this board, listen up! These words came from a man who is running for the presidency of the United States!! This same man who tried to stop MK holiday recognition. The same man who didn't seem to know anything about who the heck Martin Luther King was!!! View link below.

But considering 90% of American society is a bunch of knuckle dragging, American idol loving rubes, it seems hard. Luckily i'm a part of the top 10%.     I give John McCain a pass because he was a prisoner of war who could have easily lost his life. Michelle Obama on the other hand has lived the sweet life. So she never had a reason to not be proud of this country other than being a typical snob who is mad because she didn't get everything her way.    And yes, I am black. Not all black people are infatuated with Barack Obama empty promises.   And no one is quoting Michelle Obama wrong. Her own words have betrayed her as socialist scum. No amount of spin can fix that.

Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
So you think that 90% of us Americans are stupid. Ouch! Thanks. NOT! Hey, I'll take you for your word that you are AA but I do question your motive for wanting to trash Obama (another black man) and his wife like you are doing. Obviously you have an agenda and do not like the Obama's for some reason. Your facts on them are flawed. You are either mis-informed or you don't want to believe the truth about them. It's unbelievable the fact that you can still glorify someone who said he never loved America, equate his time spent as a prisoner of war then spin it to make him seem like some kind of hero, when in fact the things I heard are quite the opposite. I read that he wasn't tortured as some of the others. Because his father was a big named military man, they went softer on him. Wasn't he known as "song bird". Why is that? Heard he gave the enemy some info while captured? Why doesn't the media mention that? Also why didn't he want to approve the search for other american soldiers believed to be still in captivity? Why does he keep dening the approval of the GI bill that would give help to our american soldiers when they returned home. It was said that he thought it was too generous. TOO GENEROUS!!!! Michelle isn't a snob. And what kind of sweet life are you talking about. If she has anything now, it's because she's EARNED it. You know, like you've earned yours. I believe Michelle Obama knows what it feels like to struggle and she definitely has plenty to be mad about being a black woman in a racist society. But she loves her country.:-)

Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
Barack and Michelle trash themselves with their own words. My facts are not flawed as I am simply using their own words against them. As for McCain saying he didn't love America until he was captured, that's okay. That's because when you lose something, I can appreciate someone who is honest enough to say they have a greater appreciation for it when they get it back. Michelle on the other hand never lost America. She's always been here benefitting from it's greatness. She went to great schools, ate good food, and was able to raise two children in a two parent home. No one ever held her in chains, beat her, or shot at her. So it comes off as being pretty arrogant for her to say she's finally proud of something that's always been here for her. Her so-called struggle is nothing, because thousands of others have accomplished much more and have always been proud of their country. As for the GI bill that's too generous, that's an understatement. It equates to nothing more than bribing people to join the military. Personally, i'd rather someone do the job because they actually want do it as opposed to just doing it for the benefits.

Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
Lilith, so that's why you got your undies all in a bunch. You been watching that little mealy-mouth idiot. Look at his face when he thinks somebody wants to take his money. LOL! So funny! I remember seeing this one night and it struck me at paranoid he acted. He took what Michelle said literally didn't he? LOL! Look unless you or he is Exxon moble or Shell or some other huge company who is wasting eons of *excess* money on some bridge to nowhere while shipping our jobs over seas, making us buy our own products back unreasonably high prices is simply criminal! These companies make more money from loop holes and wind falls profits the amount only big billionaire companies know about and you and I will probably never know the extent of--totalling up in a few minute probably more than most people make in a year. I don't have a problem with companies or people having money. But the waste of what isn't needed or asked for while our country slides on down into the gutter is a dang shame! Don't forget the bibilcal saying, "To whom much is given, much is required" Luke 12:28. I believe Michelle said "for the first time in her adult life she's REALLY proud of her country." Which means to me, she has always been proud. Now, forty something years later because of these historical events happening before our eyes, (a Black man being considered the office of the presidency with the highest turn out of voters in US history)she's MORE proud. Thank you Mrs. Bush :-) Now McCains said he NEVER loved America until he was held prisoner. See the difference? Look I've already explained the difference and if you can't understand what she meant, it's because you don't want to understand it. You seem too filled with hate for her and Obama to see it. As far as the GI bill. I think it's the opposite of what you say. McCain would like for the soldiers to stay for as looooooooong as possible before taking advantage of what the government will reward them for their service. I think there are plenty brave men and women serving our country because they want to. Who in their right mind would join something like war when there's s pretty good chance they will be killed. I give them more credit than that. God bless em.

Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
If you're a christian and you believe Luke 12:28, then by all means, give your money away. However, the rest of us should not be forced to give ours to charity, whether we have one million dollars or one trillion dollars.  In regards to being proud of her country, Michelle's exact words were, "For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country." There was no "really" in there. But you are right. She is different than McCain. While Micelle was sitting warm and safe in her house, McCain didn't even know if he was ever going to see his home again. You say that there are people serving the country because they want to, but there are some who will just do it for the money. McCain plans to maintain the integrity of the armed forces and not turn it into global equivalent of "mall security" where you just have people "doing a job".

Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
My thing is this: Why vote for a guy like McCain, when he deliberately told us that he plans on keeping us in the war - when in truth, THE WAR is the main factor that ALL America, every culture including black folk, is suffering right now. Obama plans to bring us out of this mess and if ya'll listen to his speeches, he tells us how he does it instead of the approach Clinton and McCain tell us - "We're gonna fix it!" - HOW ***! Anyways, my point is, if you want things to get better for all of us, then we NEED Obama. Cau*102*he only logical person we have right now that can pave a road to a more easiler living life. In other words, unless you want Gas to go up to about $10 a gallon, put da *6* in office. Excuse my language, but I'm being real.

Re: Don't Vote For Barack Obama Vote For Hillary Clinton.
Lilith~ Get your facts straight please. There are several clips circling around out there, one where she says she's really proud and the other where she says she's proud. There's also one where you can tell it's been tampered with because the word *really* has been dubbed or blanked out to distort her meaning. I wouldn't put it past Fox News or the haters out there to have done such a despicable thing. "Michelle warm and sitting in her house" LOL! I'm sorry but I had to laugh at this statement of yours. Do you even know her story?? And if she was warm, why is that a bad thing? LOL! No honey, it's Mc Cain who had lived a privileged life even BEFORE he joined the service. Why wasn't he proud then? Why did he not love America before he was captured? Yeah, I guess it had to take something traumatic to wake his butt up to appreciate the blessings he had. You can coddle and stroke him all you want, but the fact of the matter is, he said he never loved America right in your face. Straight talk express. He's nothing but a hot tempered, arrogant little weasel. And you still want to give him a pass. Whatever! Why do you care the reason our young soldiers want to serve? The fact is, they. are. serving. Putting their lives on the line for your butt. And you wanna give em peanuts if and when they return battered and maimed. Maybe you'd like to see them over there forever and not return because if Mc Bush gets into office, that's exactly what's going to happen. And how can we maintain any type of integrity when the they are stretched to their limits? And until the Iraq's start taking matters into their own hands, that mall security is exactly what our arm forces will be reduced to. Seems that's what you and Mc Bush wants anyway. Oh and I think Laura Bush said it best, clearing that whole proud thing up with just a few simple words that were phrased so elegantly, when she said what she thought Michelle meant to say was that she was *more* proud. :-) Yeah. Made me smile. :-D Classy Lady that Laura Bush. What she saw in Bush, I'll never know.
