If It's Thursday, This Must Be Berlin

Ma'am; I have to wonder what ever it might be that you are looking for in a president that Mr. Obama does not own. He is intelligent and almost white, and he can shoot three pointers. Seriously; Would you prefere that the Eruopeans hate our president so that he has little influence over those who most share our culture? Do you not understand that if we are to be a world power, and a player in world affairs that our president is their president whether they vote or not? My God! You right knights do everything possible to distort reality, or spin facts into oblivion to better rent the fabric of democracy; and you can't stand it that if the world had a vote they would elect anyone but Bush. When are you going to give us a vote free of propaganda, lies, and miscarriages of truth. The electorate needs to be informed. Purely and simply informed, because without the facts no one can choose correctly. But if the choice is between two parties neither of which allow the people one bit more of choice than they demand, then who cares? The blind minded can pull any lever and live with the consequences, and each election proves that fact better. Mybe we don't need a choice if the only choice we have is between politicians and parties. What we will always need is the facts of the matter, and a choice; to consent to the laws by which we are governed, or to reject them. We cannot control our destiny at long distance by sending people to do our bidding. We send them to be corrupted, and not to govern. We send them to be bought in the slave market of national immorality. No wonder the Germans want a choice. It is no more than we should want. If we only knew, we would want the democracy they have, but we must live with the one the Germans rejected. For them, democracy is not the cause for fear that it is to our rulers, and to our rich, but is how they achieve their common goals. When the Germans and the world Cheer for Obama it is because they see well what we can barely understand: that this country needs change, as do all societies, to stay youthful, and vital. We are dying for change, and dying for the want of change. And wouldn't it be so much better if we were the light of liberty unto the world? And how can that ever be when the sabotures of liberty hold sway, and shout so loudly?,,,, Thanks. Sweeney

Hey; did you hear that the fellow who shot up the church hated liberals? Isn't killing people just a wee step beyond hate? It is possible that all the hate set loose in the atmospher over the country for political gain comes to earth somewhere; but it could not possibly land on just one person, could it? Conservative, liberal, liberal conservative; what is a word to make men kill? And something more. when some lunatic goes off killing people why do they ask a reason. What need of a reason has some lunatic? If you are a lunatic, you justify lunacy. If you are reasonable you justify reason. So who needs a reason? If there is a danger of explosion, don't light a match. If people are worked up and frustrated, don't give them an excuse to focus their rage on the innocent . Some people are by nature liberal, and some by condition are conservative. We can't just go on about heaping hatred on each other. We have got to find our way through to a mutual solution. Do you see what I mean?

Why are you so-called conservatives, who are anything but, trying to cut off your noses to spite your faces? We actually have a candidate with a brain, just like Clinton, but without the baggage. Well, he is half African… .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
But real baggage he has not. He is basically clean, brilliant like we rarely see in the base game of politics, or anywhere else for that matter, and chomping at the bit. What more do you want? Can't you see how desperately this country with its rotting infrastructure is crying out for a Mr. Clean to fix it? ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
His only drawback is he isn't white. Sorry to say it, but are you really willing to forego just because he doesn't look white enough this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have a president who is really smart and competent, without the sickness of Bill Clinton, to make us proud of being the United States again? ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
He knows how the price of milk affects us without having to read from a script, he can communicate with the many disenfranchised in this country and elsewhere who hate our guts, and he actually wants to make them understand that you and I are not the enemy. Why in the world are you trying to get in his way? ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Why are Republicans so proud of fielding candidates who spit on education and the language that reflects it so they can trash what has the maximum potential to make any country great? Wake up you fools, aren't you patriots? This is the United States! ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
He went to Harvard, you dopes. And he shined there better than everyone else in his class. He went to the best school in the world and distinguished himself. He was not an affirmative action rescue like Clarence Thomas. He was the real thing. Daddy didn't do it for him, like W's did. Daddy was dead, and he had no political influence anyway. Mommy didn't do it for him either. She just loved him, while she was alive. He made it on his own. Isn't that the American story? How many presidents have you heard of that can do that? ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
This guy can make us a great country again. All you have to do is embrace the fact that someone with African blood, who doesn't really care what his blood is because he has risen far beyond that pathetic formula, can teach us what we have been too dense to see right in front of our faces, and think us out of this fouled hole we've dug ourselves into. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Can you get over the fact that someone who is smarter than you and whose thought process you can't predict or pigeon-hole might be the guy who steers the ship? Perhaps if you understood how close your ship is to being the Titanic you might have some gratitude for the fact that a guy who is superior to you in just about every way has come along to save your sorry asses.

Re: Masako; Sir; Jethro Bodene would have a better chance of getting elected president than Mr. Obama if he were running. And the reason is the same as for the election of Mr. Bush. The people of this country have the great good sense to fear their government, and fear people more in the order which they appear most smart. When you deny a country education because the people have no political power to demand it, and then you deny them political power because they are uneducated, you are going to breed a population that is a skittish as sheep at a slaughter house, and as easily manipulated by their fears. Those people who can find a way to be edjufied, gradjiate with enough debt to buy a good sized house. Is there something in that situation that is bound to inspire philanthropy in the educated? They milk who will be milked, and the working people know that when they are badly used it is the educated who are doing it most of the time. Do you think there is some great love of Jews in the country of America? We laugh at their jokes and repect their religion, and we fear them like a tape worm, one inch at a time. Educated people should be a blessing to any society, but so long as we act like the only one who will benefit from an education is the individual educated, we will have to deal with the schhooled, and intelligent, treating us like their special prey. I know how the people feel here, and though we need some one competent enough to asses every risk, that one would be further ahead pretending to stupidity. Thanks, Sweeney
