In my humble opinion, those who are vehemently against the Obama campaign are grasping at straws.
I am no supporter of his. I agree on many points that he is not who we are being told he is, and his 'differences' are a matter of cosmetic word-crafting and image engineering.
But the truth is, when delivering speeches one is often thinking well 'ahead' of the words coming out of one's mouth. There are many rationales that can explain his 'faux pas' but you know, if they were conscious contrivances he surely would have to know that he would be called on it. While I often marvel at the obtuse idiocy of the political game, I can't believe he would be so completely clueless as to think no one would make the connection.
But in the end, this is a partisan issue, mostly argued by those who still maintain that the choices are real and the leaders offered up by the parties are somehow not going to take the path charted for them by the corporate-political machinery.
You folks can support whoever you like, that is the utmost limit of our political freedom. Rest assured, however, that if you are reading this, you will have been told, this is political shadow puppetry, and a true confidence game. I can't imagine how, after the last couple of decades of political history, you haven't seen this to be true.

And??? Whats wrong with that?
The guy was a "radical" sure, but so were the founding fathers. When they decided to fight the British did that make them terrorists?
He was just fighting back at an oppressive system.
Hence my avatar.... "bring the war home!"

Real tough for a Liberal congress to get anything done with a unpopular Conservative President.

[It's just hilarious that there is obviously nothing of any real substance which can be leveled against Obama, so the right wing blogs and their surrogates have to resort to campaign bloopers for their political attacks

Enjoy!
How can you claim it's no problem to be friends with a violent rebel and yet be opposed to violence at the same time?
Nice set of conflicting morales there.
