Obama could NOT even lead a discussion when he was called back to DC — the meeting ended in chaos — which is what O-blahblah is — Mr. Chaos. If he doesn’t have the ability to facilitate a discussion in an economic crisis — the is no way in hell he will be able to listen to divergent views when he gets the keys to the “white house”. (I don’t know what to call it anymore — since I’m sure Mrs. O will have the place repainted — probably RED and black.)

He is another bush — his twin in fact. Bush couldn’t have strong, smart opinionated people around him — he had to have fawning, ass kissers.

So yes that’s why camp O has indicated that they will continue in the campaign mode — because that is ALL the hell the O can do.

I really do NOT believe in god — there is no god —

OR — has anyone considered that the reason the hard right religious wing nuts did not vote is because they wanted Obama to be Pres — because the anti-christ (Obama) will bring about Armageddon and the end of the world???

Not even a week after the president election the blond topblogger from Sweden, Linda Ekholm speaks out loud about Obama!
And I really believe this is truly written by heart. Scary!

Same happened to me with my Yahoo account and the email I received from my own address went to my Inbox. Didn’t open it and I reported immediately to Yahoo and that was it. Didn’t happen again so far.

Those who continue to insist that they are limited, in spite of objective evidence to the contrary, are acting like people who are clinically depressed and can’t find any joy or hope in life. Several AA posters here have remarked that there is a hole or a sadness in their identity. The fear that it couldn’t be O’s blackness that spoke to his supporters, it must have been his whiteness, was the last dismaying straw on election night. This inner conviction of defeat seems to me the root problem that ought to be addressed seriously, or no other program will ever be successful. There will never be enough pie to fill such a hole.

I’ve just discovered that my email address has been hijacked. In my spamblocker I discovered spam sent to me from my own email address. What was really distressing was that one of them was titled “Cindy McCain’s shame”.
I don’t open attachments on emails but I have been on all kinds of sites in the last months due to this election.
Just a warning to you all to be careful with downloads and to have an internet security system installed on your computer.

Since Obama has never worked a day in his life, or accomplished anything on his own, being President is going to be a rude crude affair. I personally expect him to start mouthing off after a few tiring days, let alone months in the Oval Office.

I don’t know why but watching the videos from the visit of the Obamas to the White House, I started feeling sorry for the President-Elect. It is a very strange feeling… And the first lady to be will have to work hard to learn how to behave as such. She kept touching her hair and looked out of place. I think she just got a haircut. I also think BHO has lost a lot of weight and looks cadaveric (is that an English word?)…

This makes me wonder if McCain was possibly sabotaged by the Romney staffers he added to his campaign. By deliberately helping McCain lose and post election attacking Palin, they clear the way for a smooth Romney run in 2012 (or so they think!)

Anninca, You are right! What kind of disaster this fool will precipitate, god only knows. One can only hope it’s a personal one rather than something that brings all of us down even farther than we are already.

Yes, thanks for the link. Included in same:

Sherri Shepherd, a black co-host of the TV show The View, summarized the refrain we have heard hundreds of times since November 4: “We’ve always been people of color. We’ve always had these limitations on us . . . And so to look at my son and say no limitations on you . . . to look at my baby and go, you don’t have to have limitations . . .”

I do think it’s a bit disingenuous of people who have achieved success to claim that they’ve had all these limitations. Sherri Shepherd, with no talent that I’ve ever been able to see, is on a national TV show; paid well, I assume. Was that affirmative action? Or did she just have no limitations? Whoopi at least has a bit of talent even with her victim attitude. Get over it girls. You had already arrived.

and mine too. Can’t stand Herr Olberude. Will look forward to the day when the channel is replaced…maybe another DIY channel to keep us busy for the next four years.

Lest we forget, those who hold elected office, even the highest office in the land, work for us. And of late they haven’t been doing such a great job. True, there are exceptions, but by and large, the Reids, Pelosis, Franks and others of their kind, aren’t doing America any favors. We, the people of America, who have “hired” these members of elected office to make our country a better place to live in, are being let down. If elected officials aren’t doing their job, they should be ousted one by one.

There’s a website called FreedomMarch.org whose members are organizing a protest march against the debacle of an election in 2008. You might want to check it out. Let our voices be heard loud and clear.
