Obama has deemed it necessary to use someone else’s words to try and win the presidency of the United States of America? Not likely! I don't think any fair minded sole will vote for a man running for office who uses someone else’s work to get there. If he was in a college class he would be suspended for a few weeks for cheating on the test.... Maybe that's something from his past? Maybe that is how he became a senator? Maybe that is how he became a lawyer? Maybe that is what makes him sound like a preacher?
I have to say the preacher thing really bothers me. I really don't like the fact that he can rattle on and on and pretty soon you feel like the crowd is all going to break out in cumbala (sp). It isn't political it's like a religious experience and I don't what anything that looks like religion when it comes to my government. That's a whole other topic!
I will never vote for a republican! That being said, what will the majority of true Democrats do if Obama is the nominee? I suspect there will be a lot of heavy drinking and staying home! Since the majority of Democrats want Hillary and the independents are manipulating the democrat nominee to be Obama knowing full well they will vote for McCain I’d say McCain pretty much as it in the bag…. Iraq, Iran, all look out! We’re going to kick some ass in your region to making you the biggest and baddest ever seen in human history! National debt, no problem, Bankruptcy of a nation – priceless! For everything else there’s Master Card! China I now pronounce you the proud owner of a Dead Elephant!

Who you Calling a Racist?
Last nights debate could have been an eye opener for many and may be a turning point in this election. There has been much ado about Race and Racist issues being brought forward in this election. Last night's battle stayed true to that order.
Being a racist does not require that you are white. Several remarks in the last few days reveal that Obama has some serious issues around race. First of all lets remind ourselves that Obama is not 100% black. When asked if Clinton was the "first black president" Obama came back with a half sincere answer of needing to see him dance to determine if he was really a "brother". I find that stereotypical profiling by a "black man" repulsive.
Secondly, When Obama felt it necessary to say that those voting for him needed to vote for what was good for themselves, their children, and this nation and those voting for Hillary needed to vote for what was good for themselves, their children and this nation and well, Those voting for Edwards were .........well??? (Just white Males?) This was so very much a slam against the white male. As if the white male has no place at the democrat table is not only abusive but dangerous. Exactly who does Mr. Obama fell has helped him get to that table? Clue.... Bill Clinton maybe just a little? This assertion of Obama's that if you don't vote for me you are a Racist or if you vote for Clinton you are either a racist or a feminist is ridiculous. This party has always been about supporting the underdog and the downtrodden be it women, black, LGBT, disabled or other wise. Don't play that game at the table that feeds you.
Because Obama is running as the first black candidate there is a “hands off” don’t go there mentality that has overtaken this race. I think that is dangerous and misrepresentative of the party. We need to talk about the true value of race and the true value of bringing all of us together as one party representing the values of the diversity of our party. Not the desperation of one man to achieve the title of the first black president of the USA. Obama seems to have a constant need to play the race card and keep that issue at the top of this election. It's not playing well for the party and it's not getting him any votes from the democrats but rather from the republicans and independents who love this eruption from within the party. Of course they are going to support him being the nominee, but don’t look for those votes in the general. They are working hard to manipulate the democrats to insure their victory in November and we’re doing a pretty good job of allowing that to happen. What better way to secure the republican agenda than to get the opposition in-fighting and destroying the trust within the party? If Obama thinks this has been a bloody battle wait until he becomes the nominee and faces the Republican machine. He hasn't seen blood shed yet.
My point is, we have great candidates and we have much to gain from this election. I fear the point of "it's our election to loose" is very much the case and from what I experienced last night it appears we are well on our way to doing just that.

Final Curtain Call! And now for the Grand Finale - IRAQ
President Bush has decided as he loves to do…. (he’s the decider per his own appointment) that we will have 160,000 troops in Iraq for the next 10 year. We will withdraw a few to get us back to pre surge levels by next summer and then his sorry ass will be out of the white house. Can’t happen fast enough for me…. I prefer he resign and leave yesterday. (Before the speech)
Democrats better draw the line in the sand right here. No funding for anything but the beginning of troop withdrawals. Fund any equipment necessary to protect them while they are there but all other funding is earmarked to removal of our troops beginning next week.
More of the same is not an acceptable plan. There should be absolutely no long term commitment to our continued occupation of Iraq. We have crated a situation of cleansing between the sects resulting in over 1,000,000 people’s deaths. We are creating our very own holocaust of which America will be held responsible for and judged by for decades to come. The best we can hope for is getting our people out of there as quickly as possible and using diplomacy to negotiate a universal involvement of allies along with US forces to try and maintain the security of their borders while they fight it out amongst themselves and resolve their government’s reconciliation issues. We can not define their government; we never went there to provide anything but havoc. The entire democracy debacle was all smoke and mirrors by this administration when all other justifications for his worthless war were revealed to be falsifications.
We have finally reached the point of true absolute resolve that his shell and pea game is over. No more moving the pea around the table trying to spin his justification for us being there or that a plan exists that has never existed. This war was wrong from day one and is still wrong today. There is no winning any battle that is built upon corruption and deception. The American people have paid a horrific price for the lies of one man and his corrupt band of villains that were sold to us as representatives of our best interest. In fact the only interest they held was their own and their corporate criminal buddies known as the Neo-Cons.
Come on Democrats, stand firm, stand resolved, don’t give one bit! Time to bring this boondoggle disaster to an end. No more lies allowed, no more deception, no more false intelligence, no more appointing mouthpieces (General Petraeus) because Bush has lost all respect and authority. It is time to hold him accountable for his atrocities against our nation. Further atrocities and allowing further misguided behavior by our military, our courts, and our government will be a reflection on those in power today. We as Democrats certainly do not want to wear the blood on our hands that the republicans are wearing on theirs.
