When I read the sort of rambling, illogical, and unfactual diatribes against Obama that I have read by the thousands here and on other sites, I can see why thoughtful people are bailing on the Republican Party in droves. It is downright creepy and Neanderthal. The only sane people who chose to associate themselves with such slander are those who are using to gain an advantage for their own (very different) agenda. Divide and conquer!

I am cautiously optimistic that we have learned our lesson in the last eight years and maybe it won't work this time. A vote for Obama is a vote for sanity and hope.

Is it America's destiny, presidents Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and then Michelle Obama, in the tradtional values of our founding-fathers?? Barack Obama does not know when life of a baby begins in its mother's womb, he said he wouldn't want to "punish" his daughters with children. What if his mother decided to abort him, there wouldn't be a Barack Obama today, His "change" is socialism, much like that many Asian and European countries, and it doec not work over other nations, with a big well-fare system, big government-control, big spending, more regulations, and less freedom fo the people. Obama will raises taxes to pay for well-fare and finance his big spending. We need a tested and experienced leader or Commander-inChief in a dangerous world. Barack Obama is cocky, and so is Joe Biden. Can we trust his words, while he has a long record of flip-flops, and is still hiding many documents from us? Who is the real Obama, with ties to the radical extremist leftist terrorists? Is he a smoker, who does not understand the effect of addiction to nicotine, after all this is the twenty-first century information age?? Maybe it is our destiny to have Joe Biden or Michelle Obama as future president, after all.

If it wasn't for your support of Obama I'd think you were even smarter...

Good work in any case...
