#2 Must be nice to have the media flying top cover for your buffoon ass. I'm sure most citizens of the fifty seven or fifty eight states will never hear of this.
If they covered Bush's ass as much as Obama's, the friggin war would probably be over by now.

#3 He is a bona fide IDIOT.

had McCain been making al lthese stupid remarks they'd be all over the "is his mind failing because he is too old" angle.

No guts int he press for taking on Obama simply being an idiot.

#4 Someone last week said Obama was a sock puppet, an empty suit put up to fool the public, and every time he opens his mouth it seems more probable. Nevertheless, his supporters have an almost messianic fervor. I was at the SOCOM Industry Conference in Tampa last week. The conference was in the Convention Center and there was an Obama rally at the Sports Arena about 150 yards away. It was a ticketed event (so Obama could pick his audience) and the crowd appeared to be about 80% black. The 20,000 inside and the 10 - 15,000 watching on big screens outside acted like it was the second coming. There will be trouble later this year, either in August or November if he loses and, God help us, more if he wins.

#5 He also said his uncle was part of the American brigade that liberated Aschwitz.

Hmmm...verifiably untrue, no?

Shameless pandering ho.

#7 It could be an uncle on his mother's side, NoBama girl. He would have got to know those relatives while his maternal grandparents were rearing him.

#8 TW, did Obama's mother have a Russian uncle?

The Red Army liberated Auschwitz.

#9 Not likely. If true at all, more likely and expat commie, like much of the mother's family, that got drafted by Stalin.

#11 "There will be trouble later this year, either in August or November if he loses and, God help us, more if he wins."

Get ready for the trouble when he loses, RVW, because he's not going to win in November. I'm hoping he wins in August though, because that may save the Republicans from their own mistakes.

What a lousy set of choices we've got this presidential election!

#12 did Obama's mother have a Russian uncle?

I've no idea, Alan; I was just speculating on possibilities. Apparently Candidate Obama is now claiming it was a great-uncle, and it was a Nazi work camp, not Auschwitz. Quick work by his campaign to cover his blunder.

#15 Don't worry, he had another uncle that was there when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

#16 Barack Obama means "Dan Quayle" in some language or other.

#17 C'mon, elarson - Quayle was never that dumb.
