Very simple. Until Obama got the nomination there is no way he could have swung black votes. Now, if you would have debated my argument that Obama could not have run simply to swing the black vote and stated that the Democratic Party deliberately nominated Obama to swing the black vote, you would probably be correct. You didn't do that.

Wierd. You are claiming that someone is racist becuase they defend the policies of a black president? Care to explain that illogical reasoning?

He couldn't possibly do that until he got the nomination to run for the Presidency from the Democratic Party. Then he did it, but not before the nomination. So know you can claim that Obama's run for the presidency to swing black votes to the Democratic Party was premediated.

I agree. Now if we could only stop the racists from portraying Michelle Obama as an overmuscled ape.

I googled and found a Cheney qyote which supports your assertion. Here it is: "the former vice president did just that, saying that he supports gay marriage as long as it is deemed legal by state and not federal government."

With that type of logic you could argue that Obama deliberately ran for the presidency to swing votes to the Democrats.

Like referring to him as a "mulato". Except that they are more obsessed with what he has not accomplished in 10 months.

So what you are saying is that Obama won because he was white/black American? Obama has no record. He has been in office for 10 monhs and referring to his "record" is like referring to bushidiot cutting nonexistant mesquite on a quasi ranch.

Shakespeare said it. My thing is that the air waves are there and therefore belong to everyone. Problem is someone has to pay for it to be delivered and tha t's us. Obama got the Nobel Prize for Peace and even he said he did not deserve it. In fact, he is donating the money to charity, which I don't think any Noberl Prize winner has ever done. No, it is not a pacification. The reality is that it if Obama does not have the Congress of the US agree to what he wants, his bills will not pass. Period, end of story. He tried, and got stalled in Congress. Something about the US Constitution a lot of folks do not understand. Unless Congress passes it, it does not fly.

How stupid. At least 250,000 people in America enter the work force every month. To think that any country could create that many jobs in this economy is unrealistic. Try to create 250,000 new jobs and then create jobs for those unemployed. Impossile. Besides, Obama has to create jobs that were lost under the bushidiot administration.

If you cannot figure out the relationship between your derogatory term of "mulatto" and Michelle Obama's ancestry; then you are a dolt. I know you mean to use Noam Chomsky as an example but it was a dull example which is irrelevant, as is the Pharohs and Anne Frank. Dull and irrelevant. Man, this is a fun board.

So, if Obama was a WASP would say the same? As King Lear said, first we kill all the la&wyers. Answer your question?

Then don't respond to it. Is it inane to say that black slave women were raped by white slave owners and white slave masters? Is it insane to admit that white slave owners and white slave masters raped black women slaves? Not to mention how many black boys those slave owners and slave masters raped. Are you living in a bubble? If you think so, then you evidently do not understand the slavery of the South in the United States at that time. And until you do, I suggest that you stop posting on the subject.

"race is a central factor of Obama's reign... without his complexion he is just another crooked lawyer.... with it... he is a messiah... a demi-god." Another slur to his color. A "crooked lawyer," you need to do some homework.

And your point is? Perhaps your point is that you condone rape, particularly if it was done to a lave.

And being a "mulatto" in your opinion is wrong? Maybe you think that the Irish and the Germans should have never intermarried. Or the Poles and English or any other combination of cultures that intermarry. Or is your only gripe that it is black and white that should not marry and if it is, then you must be considered a racist, unless you have another explanation. NYT did a breakdown of the ancestry of Michelle Onama. Her great, great, great grandmother gave birth to a "mulatto". Seeing that her great, great, great grandmother was a black slave, how did she give birth to a "mulatto." I would suggest it was rape by either the white slave overseer or the white slave owner. But then I am sure you condone rape under any circumstances.

No doubt about his Iraqi screw up, just like the phony WMDs, and heaven forbid, a terrorist under every bed. His arrogance is supreme in the world of trying to dumb down America. Scare the hell out of them and they will follow. Cheney is evil. I still have hope that the United States will come out of the last 8 rotten years stronger and better.

To the Republicans, a landslide is one percentage point and a mandate. To the Democrats six points is a victory and the people have spoken. I hope you can understand the difference.

And ignore the other poster because Robin Williams and Sinbad probably make more sense.

I watched that interview and marveled at Cheney when he said "we love all our children" just days after he railed about homosexual marriages. What a hyprocrite and a hateful person he is. Cheny is a has been but he just can't understand why. But you are right but his hatred. It is downright scarey how Cheney hates. And this from a coward that took 5 deferrments from VietNam because he had more important things to do. Yeah, like get a Masters in Liberal Arts. And this guy ran Halliburton? The only reason Lynn Cheney got pregnant was because Cheney had no more deferrments.

Oh yes, the monotone of Wolf Blitzer, and "thanks a lot for that" responses. If you have insomnia, tune into Wolf Blitzer.

If you read the links, you would be proven wrong. Obama would be better off if the nuttos, rightwingers and whackos got a grip and realized that Yes, America, you have a black president.

Thanks for the links. They are about the same as the one I read this morning in The International Herald Tribune.

I read it in The International Herald Tribune this morning. I am sure their web site has the article. It was about the CIA diverting funds from financial prosecution because thenumber of threats Obama has had is eating up the budget, but the CIA denied it.

I think it is unrealistic for anyone to think that Obama could meet his promises in 10 months. At least Obama is working on it and not out at some half baked ranch pretending to cut mesquite. Obama's decision to hold off on sending more troops to Afghanistan until the election business is straightened out is sensible. Why would anyone put in more troops iinto a country if there wasn't a dedicated leader of that country. And, by referring to Obama as a do nothing president they are just feeding the hatred that some whackos out there have for Obama. Since his inauguration, Obama has received more death threats than any other president. Then whackos like Limbaugh, Beck, et al just feed the hatred of other whackos.
