		<description>Forgive me, please. Someone called Obama a wimp up above, and it triggered a memory of a song lyric:
&quot;He&#039;s a wimp, 
 She&#039;s a shrew.&quot;
One of the most offensive, non-politically correct songs from the past master of offense, Frank Zappa. The song is about a black man pretending to be white, called &quot;You Are What You Is&quot; and it is quite funny.</description>

		<description>I had a dream!
B. Obama will step down, quit his candidacy, before Denver. It will have to do with Michelle Obama. Don&#039;t know exactly why yet, but she will be the driving force for him to step away from this election.  She can not handle all of this &#039;meanness&#039; and her kids cant handle it...etc.
She simply can NOT understand, nor can Barry, that 70% of the country doesn&#039;t think like they do. They were/are shocked.
After 2 decades of being surrounded by lefty loon moonbats, they truly thought we ALL thought that way, the Wright way. Ayers, Rezko, Wright...more to come
Watch.</description>

		<description>Barry was pimping for &quot;cred&quot; and an avenue to power.  

Trinity provided both.

Michelle is just the extra &lt;em&gt;whip&lt;/em&gt;.

And I don&#039;t mean &lt;em&gt;Cool&lt;/em&gt;.</description>

Dang, that sounds just like Barry&#039;s attempts to explain away his crazy uncle Jeremiah, his relationship with Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn, and Bittergate.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Barry can’t win because Barry’s a wimp. He can’t grow himself a pair between now and November. And it’s got nothing to do with race. Just go back and look at him primly cutting his waffle with a knife.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Better yet let&#039;s refresh:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZtBBgn0I34E

My son was in a kiddle bowling league at four-years-old and broke a hundred a couple times and averaged in the sixties without bumpers.  He was one of the better kids but certainly not the best.  A bit above average.

So it is absolutely cringe making to see a grown &lt;strike&gt;man&lt;/strike&gt; girly man roll a 38 on national television.  And if you&#039;re such a wuss at bowling -- and running for freakin&#039; president -- why subject yourself to the humiliation?

I mean, talk about poor judgement.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;he (Obama) has completely lost the first, fine, careless rapture of a post-racial and post-resentment political movement and mired us again in all the old rubbish that predates Dr. King. What a sad thing to behold.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Sounds like Hitch believed in the &quot;rapture,&quot; so now he blames Michelle when his dreams are dashed. Barack is simply a far better actor (and calculating cynic) who knew exactly what he was doing 20 years ago. Michelle and Wright are just playing themselves in this political drama.

I would have expected Hitch not to be pulled in by the hype. Is he in need of a secular savior?</description>

		<description>I like Hitchens, and not just because he&#039;s a fellow atheist and ex-pat Brit. But I have to disagree with him here. Hitch seems convinced that Obama can&#039;t possibly agree with Wright&#039;s ravings. Why? Because Obama flashes his smiles and makes his pretty, sugary speeches? I&#039;m disappointed with Hitch, who is usually more cynical and street-wise than this. Even he has allowed himself to be seduced by that old Obamagic.
Was Michelle also responsible for her husband&#039;s association with William Ayers? And one must also wonder why Obama chose Michelle (my belle) as his wife in the first place. Was it a shotgun marriage? I don&#039;t think so.
Her views mirror those of Wright, and she has obviously held these views for her entire adult life, during which time she was never proud of America... until this year.</description>

		<description>When news first hit regarding Michelle&#039;s treatise, a portion was quoted regarding her scientific survey (not scientific, just being sarcastic) of alumni. She sent out several hundred return postage copies of her survey to black Princeton graduates. Only a small fraction of those black graduates responded. Rather than making her conclusions about those who responded, she incorrectly applied her assumptions to ALL BLACK PRINCETON ALUMNI, her assumptions were not based upon anything more factual than her own prejudicial manipulation of data for her desired result to seem feasibly founded on science. She&#039;s a hack.

She also stated that if BHO wins, she will NOT inhabit the &quot;White House&quot; but will remain with her daughters in Chicago. BHO professes his absolute reliance upon Michelle. Another CHANGE to expect will be a &quot;second presidential home&quot; for BHO and Michelle in Chicago?</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve thought that all along and appreciate the substantiation. It would be simple enough to get a parody shot of Michelle featuring the do anything for money and public exposure Omarosa.

The intervenor with the FARC is James C. Jones, who the Congressman&#039;s office says is a &quot;development expert and a former consultant to the United Nations&quot; (NOT the former Oklahoma Congressman and Ambassador to Mexico of the same name).&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Well said.  He needed to establish street cred among the &lt;em&gt;disenfranchised&lt;/em&gt;.  Yeah, that&#039;s leading real change.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Problem one: As I’ve said before, I think it’s lame to take anyone’s college thesis too seriously.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Hm, true enough in my case.  But her thesis was one of a subjective, experience-based topic...I think it can be given more weight subsequently then a random intellectual exercise.
&lt;blockquote&gt;Problem two: There’s reason to believe that Trinity appealed uniquely to Obama among Chicago’s black churches. No need to look for the lady. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
Aye.
&lt;blockquote&gt;Problem three: Don’t we have a timeline issue here? &lt;/blockquote&gt;Yep.  I think Hitch is in error as to cause and effect, but I suggest if we don&#039;t think of it linearly, but rather as a compilation, it makes me wonder his mentor (or whatever titled he is religated to by BO now) and his spouse, chosen, agree on aggrievement, it&#039;s a difficult hurdle to jump to conclude he is of a completely different mind himself.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;You’re forgetting about Jimmy.

a capella on May 5, 2008 at 3:45 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Well, I was trying to, anyway. But even when he ran he wasn&#039;t nearly as wimpy as Obama is. He was in the navy and nuclear submarines and all. Didn&#039;t seem like he&#039;d wind up being scared of rabbits till later.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think it is lame at all to consider Michelle&#039;s college thesis, in fact I think the opposite.
It shows exactly what was forefront on her mind then and my belief is on her mind now. I know I can be wrong in prejudging looks, but she looks like a black militant--yes, how racist of me. But I do feel she carrries a lot of weight in that family and do believe Obama followed her there and possibly elsewhere looking for racism.</description>

		<description>And regarding the above quote, that is what affirmative action creates...always the sub plot, are they here or there because they deserve it,or because we are forced to have them.  Welcome to the liberal world you help create.</description>

I guess I read some other thesis...you know the one that wondered if every white was looking at her blackness first, typical victim mentality that has not changed.
&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;I have found that at Princeton, no matter how liberal and open-minded some of my white professors and classmates try to be toward me, I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus; as if I really don&#039;t belong. Regardless of the circumstances underwhich I interact with whites at Princeton, it often seems as if, to them, I will always be black first and a student second.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I guess if you treat her kind of &quot;blacks&quot; with respect, they get upset, and when you ignore them they get upset, seems like nothing is ever in balance.  I guess Oprah is the only one that is accepted...</description>

Nice point.  I hadn&#039;t thought about that.  Is Barack&#039;s putting out the meme that he first met her at the office that&#039;s really a cover for his seeing her too infrequently at the church to get her to notice him so he finagles a job at her office just so he would a have betamale-like reason to see her often enough that he could pester her into dating him?</description>
