<p>Obama is a racial-minority individual and does not like racism:</p>
<p>There is bad news about George Herbert Walker Bush.</p>
<p>What if basically all racial-minority people would subscribe to the interpretations that George Herbert Walker Bush committed monstrous, racist, hate crimes while he was the President of the United States?</p>
<p>It will eventually come out: it is only a matter of time.</p>

		<description>Global infatuation with messiah-Obama is a very Real and Present danger especially in the middle of an middle-east war.  Let Obama &quot;cure&quot; in Senate a few more years.  At least until the war is over.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;Obama is the product of a brief early-60s college romance and short-lived marriage between a black African exchange student and a white liberal Kansan who met at the University of Hawaii. His critical boyhood years--from two to ten--were spent neither in white nor black America but in the teeming streets and jungle outskirts of Djakarta. Obama&#039;s boyhood experiences in Indonesia--where his mother took him when she married another foreign exchange student--propelled him toward a worldview well beyond his mother&#039;s liberalism.&quot; ---http://www.chicagoreader.com/features/stories/archive/barackobama/&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Project Vote is a front for Acorn:&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://sweetness-light.com/archive/obama-claims-he-never-worked-for-acorn&quot;&gt;http://sweetness-light.com/archive/obama-claims...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>You sound very foolish.  First of all, you do not know the dynamics of Obama&#039;s family.  Therefore, you cannot speak to it.  Secondly, your reference to Hussein Obama gives away your true feelings and your bias.  Therefore, your opinion is worth very little to me.  As for this independent voter, I will vote for Obama.</description>

		<description>Are you serious?The Obama family is going to help the middle class?Yeah , sure.Obama has a step brother living in a slum in Africa(I believe Nigeria) and where is Hussein Obama in this peasants&#039; life? Why has your great saviour Mr. O not helped his poor step brother?Mr. and Mrs.O are millionaires.If they will not help their own peasant relatives do you believe that he cares about you or me?Stop drinking the Koolaid brewed up by the Democrat machine.The Democrat machine makes sure the poor stay poor so that the poor will vote Democrat.The Democrat machine keeps racism alive so that they can rally the naive peasants who vote Demoncat.Grow up.</description>

		<description>Well, the simplest explanation for &#039;normal American&#039; would be Palin and what Palin represents to most Americans.Achievement oriented and Pro America.Obama(Hussein Obama) has a suspicious past which he does not discuss.He is the typical Anti American disguised as normal.I cannot relate to him nor can I relate to the values he states.Obama is sneaky and speaks with a forked tongue.Remember when Obama would not wear a flag pin?Is that normal?No.He is anti gun ownership but he lies about his position.Normal?No. Just say No to this deceitful politician.</description>

		<description>Where are we going to get the 85 billion promised to AIG, 700 billion asked for by Bush to by bad debts that have made the wealthy wealthier, billions currently being paid for the Iraq war, billion promised Georgia, etc.  In less than 1 month we are over a trillion dollar in debt and more coming.  And you are worried about Obama&#039;s plan to help the average American? Be for real.  Obama is not the problem, but maybe he can help fix the problem.  I do know one thing, McCain is not the answer. I prefer to risk my future and my children&#039;s future with someone who has come up from the bottom and understand the lower and middle class (Obama and Michelle) then someone who has always lived as an upper class (McCain and Cindy) and have a focus on maintaining their wealth and the wealth of their friends.    Maybe, just maybe America&#039;s middle class will survive the depression that will surely come.  Because my friend, America is bankrupted and when one is bankrupt there is nothing to do but start over again.  Remember the great depression.</description>

		<description>So let me get this straight.  We&#039;re talking about people who would otherwise vote for Obama because they agree with him on the issues.  Wouldn&#039;t those people be democrats?  A conservative wouldn&#039;t vote for Obama if only he were white.  So we&#039;re talking about democratic or liberal racism.  Just wanted to make sure we understand the claim Sibelius is making; she was a little fuzzy on that little detail.</description>

		<description>Iâ€™m glad to see you fess up that youâ€™re a LIBERAL, really I donâ€™t care if youâ€™re a liberal but I just wished you people would be honest up front. Itâ€™s taken 2 or 3 times for me to get you to admit your left leaning ways but in America that is permitted, just as it should be. Obviously you donâ€™t know who I support because as I said before Iâ€™m a Conservative and John McCain is a moderate, which I consider worse than a Liberal because they are so wishy-washy. I have jumped on the bandwagon though but itâ€™s because of his running mate, which I understand makes your blood boil. Thatâ€™s ok because your guys make me sick at the thought they could be P &amp; VP, oh the horror. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But you are wrong again, I do know what policies you support by reading your post and then your reply about who youâ€™re supporting, which is obama, am I wrong?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As far as the obscene name calling Iâ€™m sorry that happened to you, we can have a discussion without going down that road but even though you werenâ€™t obscene you did call me â€œabsurdâ€. To be honest with you I did call you a, â€œLIBERALâ€, which in my world is not a good word but I didnâ€™t curse you, at least with normal cuss words. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As far as your last line, Jesus said teach them to be fisher of men and they can teach someone else to fish, which means they will be self-sufficient and not being a burden on someone else or society. Do you really think he was telling them to catch fish and give it away? Interpret the entire Bible not just part of it. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As far as McCain&#039;s tax cuts he advocating the same as obama is now, remember obama said since the economy is sluggish he won&#039;t rescind the Bush Tax Cuts. Now if it&#039;s bad to tax now why is it good to tax even more when things are better. I believe we are paying enough taxes now, our problem is not that the government is taxing us to little it&#039;s they&#039;re spending too much. Can you write an unlimited amount of checks on your checking account without having the funds in the bank to cover the checks, I THINK NOT? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;ve answered a few of your questions but so far you&#039;ve passed on answering any of mine-hummm.</description>

		<description>More propaganda from 1911, shocking. Although, I will have to say that I really do admire your passion and wherewithal on the matter. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So what is McCain proposing for tax cuts again?</description>
