People are beginning to forget what is included in the Bill of Rights-especially where our media is concerned. Did I hear anyone at The New Yorker magazine yell "FIRE!!!!" in a crowded theater? No. I have just begun a subscription the The New Yorker magazine. Read the article the accompanies this cover. Why isn;t the Obama campaign refuting the contents of the article? Why...because they can't...It's all true. People...WE DO HAVE CHOICES IN NOVEMBER... Support EACH of these candidates now (send $, sign petitions etc...) even though you can only choose 1 in November.

No.

That got Remnick's attention, I suppose, because when BO and MO made the cover, he wrote me to say, "This one's for you, Sally." Just messin' with you, folks. But I did love that cover and what it promised which is turning out to be more than I could have imagined.

Why the pity for the Obama children? Obama is the one who has asked that kids be brought into politics with his Kids for Obama. Obviously, he and Michelle are thinking only of themselves otherwise they would have protected their children from the media instead of having them interviewed on Access Hollywood. The fact that they're willing to use other people's children to further their goals shows they are not naive babes in the political forest. In fact, the Obama's are attempting to brand themselves with the children of their supporters. Why would a man who can run only twice for POTUS brand children under 10 with the Obama seal is a better question. What is his interest in creating this "Obama Youth"? Please take a shot at that question instead of sucking your thumb over the consequences of the Obamas abuse of their own children. Judd: This is a standard New Yorker satirical cartoon.

Are you one of the majority idiots or are you one the minority idiots upon which logic is not lost? Perhaps you think that you are not an idiot. Your claim appears to be based on your sense that you are intellectually adept, but there is little evidence of this in the above posts, which engage in insults that lack wit. I think it likely that you have some post-secondary education, which gives you a sense of intellectual superiority. In saying this I mean to invoke the axiom, that a little bit of education can be a bad thing, specifically if it leads one to feel the need to evangelize the revealed truth to the great unwashed, who you like to characterize as idiots. You use your learning to belittle. Is "belittle the idiots" the Obama supporter creed? You are on this blog.

From what I hear, I see America Civil War II occurring. Well, they asked for it. However, no one is going to win this one at all. On CNN, one of the black analysts named CNN Roland Martin said you need to fight fire with fire. Hmmm! I guess he was not a fireman. To quelch a fire, you need water, not fire. Fighting fire with fire, creates a larger fire. It is going to get worse. From what I hear, I see America Civil War II occurring. Well, they asked for it.
