The Selma, Al. speech had to have been effort for him given he has never lived in the South. The drawl is common to both races and is entirely different from Northern States. MLK is a perfect example. Even when he raised his voice in speeches, you could hear that soft southern part underneath. His voice was so powerful, it mesmerized. Obama has stolen a lot from that great, dignified man, but no matter how he tries, he can't duplicate the timbre of his voice. In my memory, MLK never mocked anyone. Glad you mentioned that.

Item 1. VP.. talkleft has an interesting proposition... Kaine is a deflection. A gay-bashing pro-lifer is so repulsive, Clinton resisters will settle for anyone (at TL-Sebelius). 2. How can one separate the person from the persona? The guy is nothing more than a media product. I think of him as the IPOD I just bought. The LCD screen blew up in less than 30 days and I can't get my money back. item 3. Like Bush? They are just figuring this out? Morons. Item 4. Some of those contractors are Iraqis. Jobs are needed, and serve to keep fighting down. So is he going to pull contracts out? Os corporate buddies aren't going to like hearing their contracts are being pulled out of Iraq unless O guarantees they are getting money out of Afghanistan. Item 5. O sees some were frustrated by the sexism... yawn. Item 6. Of course he has a problem with women... which goes back to item #1: is manipulating women with the threat of Kaine going to work? Will they heave a sigh of relief at another VP option? I like the roundup format. Item 1. VP.. talkleft has an interesting proposition… Kaine is a deflection.

If he was born before 1959, that was before Hawaii was a state. Does that make him a citizen or really complicate things? I’ve been wondering this, too.

I saw Morris saying the same thing on TV and found myself screaming at the TV. These idiot pundits don't seem to get that this is a feminism issue. But maybe they just haven't come to terms with the fact that Obama has single-handedly managed to reopen the feminism box again. Hey, maybe he can add that to his resume. God knows, it needs some padding. I know what you mean, LizfromFL. I saw Morris saying the same thing on TV and found myself screaming at the TV.

The e-mail goes on to say that this decision indicates that she has been eliminated from veep consideration. I didn't really want her to take the veep position, anyway, but I did notice a big red hand print across my cheek this morning. Anyone else?

I saw headlines today about the McCain ad showing Obama among his fawning fans. The MSM reported this as "an attack ad"....geez I thought the ad was going easy on him, too easy. Next they'll say that McCain is "throwing the kitchen sink at him" HORRORS! And the MSM is going along promoting it. I saw headlines today about the McCain ad showing Obama among his fawning fans.

Hmmmm. I guess it wouldn't matter if that person were Ludacris or Michael Vick or whoever. And the Dems expect thinking people to vote for an affirmative-action candidate who is marginally qualified and associates with whitey-haters and terrorists. Joe, what you said is a racist statement, in my opinion. It's like you can accept anything from BO simply because he's black--or, worse yet, what can you expect from a black person!
